Chapter 30: Jonathan's Mission
After she came back to her room and fell asleep, Max kept on moving in her sleep. She gripped onto the covers and tears fell down her cheeks.
"They're just puppets." She gasped at this and gulped. "Xion has only one purpose, to absorb Roxas' memories and the power of the Keyblade, as for Jonathan..." If she had a heart, it would stop. "He was made to absorb your memories as well as abilities."
The red haired nobody covered her mouth and tears fell down her cheeks. She shook her head, not wanting to believe this. "No... You're lying! Xion and Jonathan would never hurt us!"
"If I don't do anything, then my best friend won't wake up and Mai won't either." She went quiet and it all sunk in.
She woke up with sweat rolling down her forehead and gulped. She turned to Roxas who was still sleeping. She sighed and laid back down.

Jonathan was walking around the hallways, trying to get himself tired; he couldn't sleep. If Riku found out he was back in the Organization, he'll end him. However, there's no way he would, not if Jonathan had things worth fight for. Saïx came walking.
"Jonathan, you have a mission…"
"Do you know what time it is?" He said.
"And yet here you are, wide awake. Besides, it's a direct order from Lord Xemnas. The Organisation imposter has been spotted. Go to Beast's Castle now."
"Fine." He made his way into the bathroom and got changed.
He came out of the bathroom. The grey eyed nobody opened a Corridor of Darkness.

Beast's Castle…
He appeared inside the Castle and she walked around. A few heartless appeared and she fought with his Keyblade. It was as if he patrolled the Castle, but there was no sign of the imposter. Jonathan was starting to get lost as he went everywhere.

Xion's room…
"Are you there?" Saïx asked as he knocked on the door.
"Yes." Xion answered and opened the door. She wore her hood on. "What is it?"
"It's a direct order from Lord Xemnas. The Organisation imposter has been spotted, go to Beast's Castle immediately." Saix said.
"…Yes sir." Xion mumbled.
"And failure is NOT an option." The blue haired nobody growled but smirked internally. "Understand, Xion?" The hooded nobody averted her eyes to the ground and nodded. She closed the door and turned around.
Xion raised her hand, opened a Corridor of Darkness and walked through it.

Jonathan…
The blue haired boy was outside the Castle and looked up at it. "Where is Riku?" He whispered very quietly and suddenly sensed something. He reacted and jumped back as a blast nearly hit him. He panted for oxygen as he was extremely surprised that the blast was just about hit him. Jonathan turned his head to where it came from and saw the imposter.
"What the hell?!" He screamed with anger behind his grey eyes. "What the hell were you going to do to me?!"
"What are you doing here? I thought you were on our side!" Riku asked as he dashed towards her with his Keyblade. He swung it but it was blocked with Jonathan's. This caused sparks and dark clouds to form and Riku tried to push him to the wall.
But he didn't budge; Jonathan kept his feet on the ground and swung his Keyblade so that Riku's keyblade would fall onto the ground.
"I was sent to finish you off. But I don't want to fight you, please, stop!" Riku gasped as he froze and he heard Mai's voice in his head. She was tell him to stop. He was snapped into reality when he remembered Sora and he growled.
"All I want is for my best friend to wake up but you're always getting in the way!" Riku yelled and charged at him.
They started to fight each other but Jonathan wasn't doing too well. It was as if there was an anchor in her body which stopped him from fighting properly. There was something inside him that refused to fight him.
Riku swung his Keyblade at him and walked past him. Jonathan fell onto his knees panting for air as no blood flowed out of his many wounds, scratches and gashes. Was it because he was a replica? Still he felt like his body was being slaughtered alive.
"I…I told you…I don't want to…fight you." He mumbled very quietly and Riku turned around.
The silver haired teen held his Keyblade in his hand ready to finish him off. Jonathan looked up at him but closed his eyes when he realised what he was about to do. He was unable to fight him, he was too strong. A tear fell down his cheek when he thought about the people he loved the most; Roxas, Maximum, Axel, and Xion.
Suddenly Xion came just in time and blocked his Keyblade with hers. Jonathan opened her eyes and looked up to see the hooded nobody. 'She…saved me.' he thought as his cheeks turned a light pink.
The hooded girl started to fight Riku and he was surprised that she had her hood on. Xion didn't even speak; all she did was fight…like a true doll of the Organisation. Riku pushed her back with an Aero attacked and she shrieked.
"Xion!" Jonathan yelled. Then and only then did the silver haired imposter realised who or what she was.
"You were the person I was looking for, Xion." Riku said. Jonathan was trying to recover himself with magic, but it was no use. Riku swung his Keyblade swiftly and Xion fell to her knees near Jonathan. Her Keyblade fell onto the ground and she reached out for it, but couldn't even touch it.
Riku picked up the Keyblade but it didn't affect him which was shocking for Xion and Jonathan to see.
"Why are you dressed like one of us?" Xion asked and Riku turned around from them.
"To make sure my best friends sleeps in peace." Jonathan's grey eyes widened and he gripped his coat.
She touched her bracelet and gripped onto it. The brown haired boy raised an eyebrow but N_ gasped as he realized what was happening.
"M_, snap out of it!" He took her by her shoulders. "Please, no!"
"Noooo!" D_ shook his head.
"Not now…" G_ sighed sadly and Sora's blue eyes widened.
"M_!" She fell flat onto her back and S_ and R_ rushed to her side.
"No! You can't leave now!" R_ shook his head.
The blue haired nobody's eyes started to close and his vision became blurry. "This Keyblade, it's a sham." Riku said. "Worthless." He chucked the weapon away as if it was rubbish.
"My Keyblade is not a sham! What gives you the right to say that?" Xion cried and stood up. She picked her Keyblade and screamed as she was about to swing it at him. Riku on the other hand, reacted quickly ducked and kicked her. The hooded nobody fell to her knees again and Riku turned around. He started walking off.
"I will get my best friend back." He turned to Jonathan who was getting light headed. "No matter what." Riku stopped walking and clenched his fists until they trembled. "Even if both of you get in my way…"
The silver haired boy left the two nobodies. Xion screamed agonisingly and Jonathan stumbled to Xion's side. He hugged her, she who was crying.
"Xion, it's going to be..." He gulped, feeling slightly dizzy. "It's going..."
"Jonathan?" She looked at him. He held his head as tears ran down his face. He fell to the side but Xion caught him. "Jon!!"
