Max yawned and stretched as she sat upright. When she got back to the Castle, she decided to get some sleep. "Hey..." She turned to Roxas and smiled.

"Hi Roxy!" Max giggled and tilted her head to the side. "How long have you been awake?"

"Well, I woke up two hours ago." She glanced at the time; 6:00am.

"How come you didn't go to eat breakfast or something?" She asked and his cheeks were a faint pink.

"You looked really cute when you were sleeping and I couldn't help but just stare at you sleep." She blushed at this and averted her eyes away from him.

"Oh stop it. I'm not that cute Roxas." Max mumbled.

"You're being too modest again." She rolled her eyes at this.

"Roxy!" She whined.

"Max!" This made her blush and giggle. He started to laugh and they laughed together. Roxas stared at her giggle. She stood up and went to the bathroom to freshen up and brush her teeth. She waited for Roxas and when he came out the golden haired boy was about to walk to the door, but Max stopped him.

"Wait!" She placed a hand on his shoulder and he turned to her.

"What's wrong Max?" He asked and she raised her hand into the air. There in front of her, a portal appeared and Roxas' eyes widened. "What's that?"

"I learnt how to open portals, Saïx taught me." She grinned.

"Awesome!" He said and she took his hand. Roxas blushed at this contact.

"Come on, let's go!" They walked through the portal and into the dining area.

"Good morning everyone!" Max smiled and they replied.

"Good morning no.14." They sat down at their original places with Max opposite Roxas. As they ate breakfast the red haired nobody stared into her friend's eyes and vice versa. Axel noticed this and smirked. He nudged Roxas whose cheeks went red.

"Hahaha! Are you blushing? That's great, when did you remember how to do that?" He asked and Roxas scratched the back of his head nervous. Max on the other hand looked up and grinded her teeth together. Everyone felt the aura.

There was this aura coming out from her that sent shivers done all of their spines.

They all looked at the red haired nobody who was glaring at her brother and eagerly awaited what she was going to do next. But nothing happen, She looked down and continued eating her breakfast like nothing happened. Just as Axel thought that he was off the hook Max said something that made him gulp. "Consider yourself lucky to be my brother or else I would have finished you with the click of my fingers."

Later...

Max sat down next to Roxas on their bed and she sighed. Roxas turned his head to her and frowned. "What's wrong Max?"

"Roxas..." She looked up into those sapphire blue eyes. "...Do you remember anything about before?" The red haired nobody asked innocently and he shook his head.

"No I don't, but don't worry, you're not alone." He said with a smile and she looked at him. She leaned her hand onto Roxas' shoulder. He smiled at this and placed his hand on her head as he felt her soft hair. "Max, are you okay?" She looked at him and sighed as the tears brimmed in her eyes.

"Roxas, I keep on hearing these voices that I've never heard before then I fall unconscious. And what makes it worse is that whenever I look in the mirror I see this girl with black hair and red eyes. Roxas, do you think I'm..." Before she could continue he placed his finger onto her lips and her cheeks were the colour of her hair.

"Don't. Nothing's wrong with you Max. You'll be fine, I promise." She stared into those blue eyes and she sighed.

"But what if I won't be fine, Roxas?" She asked innocently.

"Max, remember what you told me when we first joined the Organisation?" She raised an eyebrow at this. "You said that I'll always be with you too, Max."she smiled at this as a tear fell down her cheek and he wiped the tear away.

"What is this?" He asked.

"They're called tears. Tears come out of people's eyes when they are crying." She answered.

"Why are you crying?"

"People cry because they feel sad or happy." He gasped at this.

"So...do you have emotions too?" Her eyes widened.

"I think I do, but wait, do you have emotions?" This question made Roxas' cheeks go pink and he gulped. "I asked Axel if we had hearts." She stated quietly and he looked up at her. "He said that we might, because we have feelings."

"Max, do you know how beautiful you are?" This question made her shy and shocked her. She averted her eyes to the ground as her cheeks felt warmer. 'Did he call me beautiful?'

"Um, you know, I'm not that beautiful." She mumbled and he shook his head.

"The most beautiful thing I've seen is you, Max." She smiled at this. "And you're being too modest again." She grinned and covered her smile with a little giggle. "It's cute the way you giggle and laugh every day." The red haired covered her face and shook her head.

"You're making me blush Roxy, stop!" She giggled. Roxas grabbed her wrists gently and uncovered her face. He smiled at her with his sparkling blue eyes.

"But, I like the way you blush." He whispered and she thought that she was going to faint. He started closing his eyes and her eyes were heavier as they started to close as well. They leaned closer and their noses were touching. Their lips brushed together and they were nearly...

"No. XIII, no. XIV, you must go to 'Where Nothing Gathers' now." They heard Saïx say and it seems like he was in the room too. The blue haired nobody walked through the portal which was left open for the other two nobodies. Roxas pulled away and stood up. Maximum cursed under her breath and growled as she stood up too. Whatever the reason they had to go to that damn room, she was going to kill that reason!

It seemed that Larxene and Xaldin went on a mission and there were two spare thrones. Jonathan sat on top of Xaldin's throne and Maximum sat on her rival's throne. She crossed her legs, leaned her elbows onto the throne and clasped her hands in front of her mouth. But apart from the two who wasn't present, everyone was in their thrones, but Max didn't look so...normal. She was extremely infuriated and angered that just because of this stupid little meeting, she couldn't kiss Roxas.

"Good tidings friends. Today is a momentous day." Xemnas began and she rolled her eyes at this.

'Yeah and what was going to happen a few seconds ago would have been one of the most momentous moments in my life!' She thought.

"I am pleased to announce that a new comrade has been chosen to wear the coat." The red haired nobody's eyebrow jerked as she paid more attention.

She looked down and saw someone who wore the black coat walking closer. That nobody had their hood on and Max could tell; it was a girl. But by her body language, she could tell that the girl wasn't like Larxene or Maximum. She seemed a bit shy and afraid. But this didn't make Maximum's non-existent heart pour it, it burned with loathing. "No. XVI let us all welcome yet another Keyblade's chosen."

It seemed that no. XVI was smiling at Roxas and this made Max mad, internally. She grinded her teeth together and seethed with jealousy. 'So first, she's the reason why me and Roxas didn't kiss, she ruined everything! And second, she's smiling at the boy that I love!'

"No. XIV." She heard Xemnas' call and composed herself as she looked up at him with a blank look. "You will be taking care of no. XVI, understood?" She kept on staring at her superior with an emotionless face but her eyes could make everything clear; bitter loathing, murderous hatred and poisonous jealousy.

Phoenix stood up onto her throne and jumped off it. She landed elegantly in a crouch and stood up. The red haired nobody started to make her way to the hooded girl with a glare on her face. Everybody watched on and she clenched her fists. Max stopped in front of the girl and looked down at her like she was lower than dirt.

The green eyes girl lifted her hand and growled. It was as if max was controlling everything in her hand. Xemnas smirked and watched her. He was expecting the red haired nobody to be controlling her anger and creating her Keyblade. Now, everyone was on the edge of their thrones. A portal appeared next to Maximum. She made her way into the portal, storming into it and not looking back.
