He exited the room, after redressing, closing the door quietly behind him, as to not disturb his hostesses. He had his hair tied back. It had gotten longer since he last checked. It was originally shoulder length, but now it was near the middle of his shoulder blades. He had apparently aged some since he could last remember. He sat down in a chair, one hand covering part of his face, trying to remember what had happened, if anything. Finally he asked it. "What's the date?"

Alex didn't say anything. She simply got up quietly and got the calender. Her and Kaylee marked off the previous every morning, so the first day with no X was the date. It was easier that way. She pitched the calender down on the table beside him and sat back down. ~~~~ Kaylee, who had just walked in, saw how Alex was acting. Hm, that's weird. She never is partially quiet...much less completely quiet. "Are either of you hungry? I'm cooking tonight." ~~~~ Alex simply shook her head and stared straight forward, expressionless.

"May 13th." he muttered. "That's impossible," he stood up, "how could I have lost five months?!" He stared at the calendar, hoping, wishing for it to be wrong. But there was no such luck. It had been five months since he could remember being in Radiant Garden, even though it felt like he was there just yesterday.

"Five? Wow... You memory is in bad shape if you lost five months." Kaylee said, not intending to sound like Alex. Instead she was genuinely concerned. ~~~~ Axel just glance over at him, a little concerned, then looked away again.

"Yeah, yeah it is." agreed the red-head. Then it dawned on him, he had yet to introduce himself to the girls. He felt like an arrogant jerk, they had brought him into their home and let him use their bed and bath, and he simply ignored them for the most part. "I'm sorry, I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Ray, Ray Cozart."

If Alex had of been a cat, this would be when her ears would stand up straight. She turned to Ray and looked at him hard. "Where have I heard that name... Its so fimilar..." Then she saw them. The Keychains of Fenrir and Oblivion on his belt. She pointed at them and said "Where did you get thoes two? do you remember?" Of course, she already knew where, but she wanted to see if he did. ~~~~ Kylee was a bit startled by Alex's sudden break of silence. "What are you getting at Alex?"

Ray looked confused, he picked up the two Keychains she had pointed at. He had no memory of them. "No, no I don't. But then again, there are several new ones in my collection." He activated one of the Keyblades and was amazed at its power.

"Just as I thought. Ray this is probably going to hurt your head, but I know where you got the one you are holding, Fenrir, and the other one I pointed at, Oblivion." Alex said, getting almost overly excited. She felt like she was helping. ~~~~ "Fenrir and Oblivion...? Aren't those-" Kaylee started, but Alex shushed her before she could finish.

"Fen-rir? Obliv-ion?" as he asked the second name, the Keyblade suddenly appeared in his free hand. "What the-? I'm dual-wielding? I-I've never done this before, but I feel as if I've done it half a million times." Then it happened, both Keyblades deactivated and the flood of memory fragments rushed in. He dropped to his knees, doubled over in pain. The scattered events came in randomly, nothing really stuck. Nothing but two names. "Qu-Queen Minnie. C-Christopher." he groaned before passing out once more.

"Well that answers that question. I heard his name the last time I talked with Master Ryder." Alex said, getting Ray and laying him on the couch. "He told me about their adventures over the past nearly 5 months and that he gave him his other Oblivion as a sign of friendship." ~~~~ "That makes sense. Why did he only say Queen Minnie and Master Ryder's name though? Why nothing else?" Kaylee asked. The she looked at him as if she had gotten an idea. "Dive to Heart?" ~~~~ "Yeah go for it. It worth a try." ~~~~ That's just what she did too, but what she found in his Awakening was a emotionaly torrent of negitive feelings. The stained glass was shattered and broken away, the pillars were crack and crumbled. The stairs were horrible twisted and disfigured. The whole place was in total disarray. Everything seemed marred beyond repair.

Ray once again awoke in a cold sweat. It was early morning. He looked over and saw one of the girls sleeping in the chair she was in the other day. How many days had he slept this time? He didn't know, and he wasn't sure if he wanted to. He quietly got up, slipped his boots on, sneaked out of the room and the house. He went down to the water and activated Fall of the Evening Star. It had been awhile since he trained. He practiced both defensive and offensive stances and blows. Adding in combos here and there.

When Kaylee got up from the spot on the floor behind the couch where she herself had passed out, she notice that Ray was gone. She would have woken Alex up, but something told her she was alreadyy awake. ~~~~ "Where's Ray? I only just realized that we didn't exactly tell him who we were." A still half asleep Alex asked. ~~~~ "You can check outside, but I would put better clothes on first." Kaylee laughed. ~~~~ Alex looked down at her tattered, once bright blue PJ's and let out a small laugh. "Maybe." She went to her room looking like she had just woken up, and came out 5 minutes later looking like she had just spent an hour getting ready. She was now wearing a form fitting shirt with tighter fitting blue jeans, her hair was brushed and laid gentaly on her shoulders, teeth brushed, everything. Well everything she normally did. The tomboyish girl never wore make up and only messed with her natural hair style if it was something speacial. Normally she even wore her hair up. Only those she trusted, AKA Kaylee, had ever seen it down. However she was always told by the other girl that it looked better down. Then she went outside to try to find Ray. She found him down by the water "Hey Ray!" she called as she got down there. "I just realized that We forgot to tell you who we are. I guess we are used to everyone already knowing who we are." She laughed. "My name is Alex Faith and the other one is Kaylee Silverlake."

Ray heard the girls and waved at them, deactivating his Keyblade. "It's nice to finally become acquainted with you, Kaylee and Alex." ------- Suddenly, there was the sound of clapping. "Well isn't this nice, looks like Ray has made some new friends." ------- The red-head looked over to where the clapping and voice came from. There was a man walking toward them, he wore a black and green bodysuit with a mask that had some odd symbol on it.

Kaylee, who had started out the door before the masked boy showed up, stopped and looked at the newcommer oddly. Definatly not from around here... she thought. Maybe I should go down there and help... No, I'll let Alex handle it. I'll just wait here. ~~~~ "And just who the hell are you?" Alex asked, obviously a little irritated at the interuption. She came out here, hopping to get to know Ray a little better, until this annoying boy showed up.
