31) What's Love?
Day: 171

On my mission at Beast's Castle, Xaldin told me about "love" and the special power it has over people.

I tried to ask Axel about it, but his explanation didn't make any sense to me. Every time I ask him about this kind of thing, he tells me I need a heart to understand. It's like he's dodging the questions.


32) Xion Collapsed
Day: 172

Xion failed her mission and now she's in a deep sleep. I thought they were lying to me when they told me, but I went to see her, and she really was just asleep. I left a seashell by her pillow, just like she did for me.

Saix hates her. I don't know why. Maybe he knows more about her than the rest of us do.

Those pictures flashed through my mind again on today's mission (the same boy in red as usual). I guess he's been to Wonderland. I'm still trying to figure out what it is I'm seeing.


33) Picking Up the Slack
Day: 173

I've decided to work harder while Xion is asleep to pick up some of the slack. Axel said he asked Saix about her, but no dice. He did say that Saix was having second thoughts about calling her broken, though.

I just hope we get all this drama ironed out soon, so she doesn't have to wake up to it.


34) Seashells for Her
Day: 174

Xion hasn't woken up, but I'm pulling double duty to make up for it.

Me and Axel talk about the dumbest stuff now. Afterwards we head back to the castle, and I leave a seashell by Xion's pillow. It would please me to see her smile when she finds them.

Those pictures flashed through my head again in Never Land. And when I flew, it felt like I'd done it before. Has the guy in red flown before, is that it?


35) Best Friends
Day: 193

Xion's awake now. The three of us were gonna go get some ice cream after our mission, but she passed out again, so we had to take her home.

I talked with Axel in her room until she woke up. He said the three of us were best friends-- inseparable.



Xemnas


36) Even Far Apart
Day: 194

We've all started going back to our usual spot after work. Sometimes Axel and Xion are there waiting for me, other times I get there first.

Things have gotten busier for us, so we can't all make it every day. But even if they're not there, at least now it seems like we're together again. I wonder if it seems that way to them, too.

I forgot to ask Xion about the pictures in my head again... It was the same kid in red. Who is he? What does he have to do with me?


37) What's Gotten Into Her?
Day: 224

I think something's wrong with Xion. Is she not feeling well again?

Axel said we should all go to the beach next time we get a vacation. I think he senses something is wrong, too. That's why he suggested the beach-- to make her feel better.


38) Something Must Be Wrong
Day: 225

Okay, now I'm really worried about Xion. I told Axel, but all he said was that she'll get through it.

He knows something is wrong. I bet he's just telling me that to put my mind at ease. Well, it's not working.


39) Now Axel's Acting Weird
Day: 225

I had ice cream with Axel after work today, but Xion didn't show.

Axel said she got sent on an important mission, but he wouldn't look at me when he said it. I've been wondering what's wrong with Xion all this time, but now that I stop and think about it, Axel's not himself either.


40) Xion's Gone Missing
Day: 256

Xion has gone missing, but nobody said anything about her being hurt, so that's good... I guess.

Did she run off? That doesn't make any sense. Xemnas told us not to go after her. The way Saix explained it, it's almost like they don't think she's worth getting back.

What is going on?


41) He's Avoiding Me
Day: 257

I want to talk to Axel about Xion, but I can't seem to get ten seconds with the guy.

What am I supposed to do? I can't believe he's avoiding me. We're supposed to be friends.


42) By the Sea
Day: 276

I don't remember much about today's mission-- just that it was by the beach. Or was it? The mission didn't even feel real.

Me and Axel agreed to start looking for Xion tomorrow.


43) No Sign of Her
Day: 277

I've looked everywhere for Xion, in every world, but there's just no sign of her.

Where is she? Why did she leave the Organization? I don't get it, any of it.


44) Castle Oblivion
Day: 296

There's one place we haven't checked yet to see if Xion's there-- Castle Oblivion. When I brought it up with Axel, he surprised me by saying that C.O. is where Xion comes from. I guess he just found out himself.

Is that where she is?


45) Who is That Guy?
Day: 297

I went to Castle Oblivion to find Xion, but I don't remember anything about it. Axel said I collapsed as soon as I got there.

I woke up in Twilight Town, and incredibly enough, Xion was there. But she wasn't alone-- there was this guy with her, and he was wearing the Organization's cloak. I could tell by his build that he wasn't one of us, though. Who is he?


46) Some Other Way
Day: 298

I don't believe it. Axel attacked Xion. There had to have been some other way.

I know she's acting weird, but I hardly recognize Axel these days either. What's going through their heads? I feel so left out.


47) Sora?
Day: 299

Xemnas told me that "Sora" is the connection between me and Xion. But just who exactly is Sora?


48) No Words
Day: 300

For the first time in a while, the three of us met up on the clock tower. None of us really knew what to say.

We used to talk each other's ears off, but I guess those days are gone.

So much has happened lately that I've been forgetting to write about those pictures in my head. Now it happens even when I'm not on missions. More often, too.

They even show up in my dreams. Xion told me she has dreams, too. Is all of this connected?


49) My Dream
Day: 301

I dream all the time now, but I don't sleep well. I wake up tired every day. I guess that makes them nightmares, not dreams.

Xion and Axel don't come to the clock tower anymore. I thought maybe if I got everything off my chest with them, I might stop having the nightmares...but so much for testing that theory.


50) No Energy Left
Day: 321

I feel so tired-- almost disconnected from my body. The dreams have gotten stranger. Now I wake up with water on my cheeks. I don't know how it got there, but I think there's something really wrong with me.

Today I was teamed up with Xion. She seems to be in a lot better shape than me. We had ice cream together, something we hadn't done in a while.


51) Another Dream
Day: 322

I had another dream. My head feels heavy.

I want to have ice cream with Xion and Axel again.


52) Us and the Sunset
Day: 352

Me and Xion and Axel had ice cream. The sunset was beautiful.

I don't have to write anything else down, because I'll never forget this day.


53) Broken Trust
Day: 353

Axel let Xion leave the Organization. Like he wanted her to go.

She's a puppet? A mirror that reflects me? He's talking nonsense. I can't trust him anymore.


54) Who Am I?
Day: 354

I don't understand the Organization. I don't understand Axel... I understand myself least of all. Why do I keep coming back to the castle?

Me and Xion are special, connected by "Sora." If she's a puppet, maybe I am, too.

I don't know what I am.


55) I AM
Day: 355

I have to know who I am...

I am DONE WITH THIS.


56) Three Again?
Day: 357

I'm going to set Kingdom Hearts free and find my way to Sora. I'm going to get Xion back. The three of us will have ice cream together again-- I know it.

Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days Diary Entries

Home | Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days


1) Entry 1
Day: 7

It's been a week since I got here. Saix told me to keep a diary, but he said nobody would check it. What am I supposed to write about?

Today they told us to go to the Round Room, where we met our new member, No. XIV. Was I like that when I first got here? I think I was. But I don't remember too well.


2) Entry 2
Day: 8

Axel and I went to Twilight Town today. He taught me a lot.

Before we RTC'd (Returned To the Castle) we swung by the clock tower and had some sea-salt ice cream. Axel called it the "icing on the cake" after a successful mission. Well, except there was no cake-- just the ice cream.

I don't know what to write in this thing!


3) Entry 3
Day: 9

The past few days, the other members have been showing me how to fight and do mission stuff. They also told me more about the Organization, and about myself.

I still don't really get what a "heart" is. But apparently, it's a vital piece of who I am-- so I've decided to cooperate. If I collect enough hearts, I can complete Kingdom Hearts. Then I'll be whole.


4) Entry 4
Day: 14

Me and Axel went on a mission to Twilight Town. Afterwards, we went and had ice cream again up on the clock tower.

He said friends do stuff like that or they laugh together. So does that mean me and him are friends?


5) Entry 5
Day: 15

The other members have been teaching me more about how to fight and stuff. It's going, I guess.

Every day after work, I've been meeting Axel at the clock tower to have sea-salt ice cream. It really is salty! But still sweet, too. How come it tastes so familiar?



Demyx


6) Entry 6
Day: 22

Axel is going to some place called Castle Oblivion. He told me because we're friends.

He had to go home early to get ready, and after he left I noticed the word WINNER on my ice cream stick. I wonder what I won... I'll ask him when I see him tomorrow.


7) Entry 7
Day: 23

Axel left before I woke up this morning. I never got to ask him about the ice cream stick.

I was partnered up with No. XIV for today's mission. Xion wore a hood the whole time and wouldn't say a word to me. Come to think of it, I didn't have a whole lot to say, either.

Afterwards I went and had ice cream by myself.


8) Entry 8
Day: 24

I teamed up with No. XIV again today. We finally talked a little-- Xion even said my name for the first time.

Afterwards I had ice cream by myself again. The lady at the shop said you can trade the WINNER stick for an extra bar. But I can't eat more than one.


9) Entry 9
Day: 25

Today was my third day with Xion. I've gotten to know a little more about her.
That's right---she's a girl, with black hair, and she can use the Keyblade just
like me!

I took her out for ice cream afterwards, but I'm saving the WINNER stick. Axel
deserves a reward when he gets back. Xion wants to have ice cream with us from
now on. Maybe we'll be friends.


10) How Long?
Day: 26

I only remember part of this day. I heard somebody sent to Castle Oblivion was terminated. Saix said it may have been Axel.

I tried to ask Xigbar about it on the day's mission, and he said nothing's left of Nobodies once we're gone, because we have no hearts to leave behind. I don't remember much after that. They say I collapsed and wouldn't wake up...


11) Xion's Seashells
Day: 50

I must have missed a lot. It's like I had the longest dream. I woke up to find a bunch of seashells by my pillow. I counted them-- one for each day they said I was asleep.

I was wondering who left them there, but then when I got to the clock tower, Xion gave me another one. I held it up to my ear, and I could hear the ocean... Why did it sound so familiar?

The stuff I dreamed about felt strangely familiar, too. I remember being in a white room with somebody the same age as me wearing red clothes... and then he sort of disappeared into the white.

And there was a girl's voice-- she said she knew I'd be "snoozing." Why would she know that? The voice was a little like Xion's.


12) Annihilated
Day: 51

It sounds like the worst has come to pass: the whole C.O. team, wiped from existence. It's hard to come to grips with the idea that Axel is gone. I feel... choked up? I don't know what you'd call it. I've never had this kind of sensation.

I went up to the clock tower to have ice cream, but nobody else showed up.


13) Ice Cream Alone
Day: 52

I sit up on the clock tower, but no one comes. Not Axel, not even Xion. That weird lump in my throat won't go away.

Something else is bothering me. This is gonna sound crazy (good thing this is a private diary!) but these pictures keep flashing through my head. Not all the time, just sometimes... Ever since I collapsed.

It happens when I'm awake, too-- on missions-- so I don't think it's a dream. Where are the pictures coming from?


14) Axel's Back
Day: 71

After work, Axel turned up. Just like that, out of nowhere. I didn't know what to say. I thought we'd lost him for good.

We went up to the clock tower and talked for a while. I told him about Xion.

The choked-up sensation has gone away.


15) Ice Cream with Axel
Day: 72

Me and Axel went to Agrabah. He seems different now that he's back from C.O. Ice cream was just the two of us today.

I wonder when me and Axel and Xion will all get to have ice cream together.


16) Where's Xion
Day: 73

After I finished my mission I wanted all three of us to have ice cream, but I couldn't find Xion. It's been at least ten days since I've seen her.

Axel said he'd ask Saix what was going on. Speaking of Axel, I didn't see him at the clock tower today.


17) The Three of Us
Day: 74

My job today was to help Axel find Xion. It turns out she had gone missing, but we managed to find her.

We finally got to all have ice cream together, which was nice, but Xion can't use her Keyblade anymore. Axel says friends help each other out, so I'm gonna go on missions with her until she remembers how to work the Keyblade herself.


18) Inseparable
Day: 75

Me and Xion are working together now. The Genie we met in Agrabah said he and his friend Al are "inseparable." Axel told us best friends can be inseparable even if they're not always together, but it sounded like he wasn't too sure about it himself.

I thought Axel knew everything. Oh well...

That reminds me, those weird pictures flashed through my head again while I was in Agrabah. The guy in red I wrote about before... Has he been to Agrabah or something?


19) Kingdom Hearts
Day: 94

Xemnas summoned us. Nothing he says ever makes sense to me. He showed us Kingdom Hearts, a big heart-shaped moon floating up there in the night sky, and said the human heart will never have power over us. Great... I guess? So why are we trying to get hearts again?

Axel said I'll understand better once I have a heart, but I'm not so sure...


20) My Past
Day: 95

I went to Agrabah today with Xion. We make a pretty good team now.

Afterwards me and her and Axel talked about us and the other Nobodies. The ones who make it into the Organization are powerful enough to keep their memories... But me and Xion can't remember our pasts. What was I like?


21) Out of Trouble
Day: 96

Today's mission was with Xion, in Beast's Castle. I tried loaning her my Keyblade, and she had no problem using it. That meant I had to fight without it, but we got the job done.

Afterwards Xion remembered how to summon her own Keyblade, so I guess we're out of trouble. When we were done, we all had ice cream together.


22) Everyday
Day: 97

Every day, after work, the three of us have been going to our place on top of the clock tower to have ice cream. We don't talk about much, but I wouldn't miss these conversations for the world. I wonder if Axel and Xion feel the same way...

Do the other Organization members have their own routines? It's hard to picture.


23) Special Nobodies
Day: 117

Today it was me and Xigbar. Axel and Xion went out on their own mission.

Xigbar told me that Xion and me are "exceptional"-- you know, like, special Nobodies. Because we can use the Keyblade?

Work dragged on late, so I didn't make it up to the clock tower. I wonder if Xion and Axel made it.

Those pictures started flashing through my head again on the mission. The boy in red... What's it all about? Maybe when Xigbar called me "special" he meant "crazy"...

Seriously, though, is Xion experiencing the same thing? It feels weird to ask.


24) Vacation
Day: 118

Today was my first vacation ever. I didn't know what to do with it. Axel said to do what I like, but all I like is having ice cream with my friends-- so that's what I ended up doing.

Axel leaves tomorrow for some kind of mission. Which reminds me-- I still haven't given him the WINNER stick yet.


25) Something to Protect
Day: 119

Axel has been gone forever. It's been just me and Xion at the clock tower.

While me and Xaldin explored Beast's Castle, we found something he wants to protect... Xaldin says that's a weakness, but I'm not so sure. What does it mean to care about something that much? I don't, so it's hard to wrap my head around the whole idea.


26) WINNER
Day: 149

Today's mission took me to a new world. It was a weird place. I was up on the clock tower afterwards when Axel turned up after being away forever. He said he finished that long mission. But this time Xion didn't show.

I was gonna give Axel that WINNER stick, but I should wait until I get another one. It wouldn't be fair to leave Xion out.


27) Too Precious to Lose
Day: 150

Xion didn't come to the clock tower again today. She and Saix had some kind of argument.

Axel and I talked for a while about the things we can't bear to lose. Axel thinks that for Nobodies, it's our pasts, because that's all we have to remember the pain of losing something. I don't remember my past, but the idea of losing the present-- Axel or Xion-- scares me.


28) What Makes Us Different
Day: 151

I ran into Xion in Twilight Town. I guess she messed up a mission pretty bad the other day, and it's been bugging her.

We went up to the clock tower afterwards. She said, me and her are different-- which is pretty obvious if you look at us, but I don't think that's what she meant. A lot seems to be on her mind, and it's not the same as what's on mine.


29) I Don't Get It
Day: 152

I think Xion might be mad at me, but I don't know why. Axel says girls are complicated. You can't press the wrong buttons. Like I'm supposed to know what the right ones are.


30) No Taste for It
Day: 153

It's hard spending time with Xion, and Axel seems busy, too. I've been having ice cream alone, but it's just not the same. All I taste is the salt, and my hands get all sticky. It's like I'm going through the motions of eating it just so I can throw the stick out and get on with life. I must've had about a hundred of these things, and I still haven't found another WINNER.

I never did find a way to ask Xion about the pictures that go through my head. I don't really know what to do about anything right now.

Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days Reports (2)

Home | Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days


25) You Changed, Not Me
Day: 118
Report by: Axel

Talking to Roxas and Xion always brings back memories of my human life, back when I was a kid. It's a weird sensation.

I ought to be able to share all this with Saix, but I just don't feel like it anymore. It's strange, but I'm content with just missing what's gone.

I'm not the one who changed. You did.


26) Hearts and Emotion
Day: 119
Report by: Xaldin

Watching that foolish beast flail about only depends my disdain for humans and their incessant need to be pinned down by feelings.

We became Nobodies precisely to avoid the shackles of emotion. It was only later that we realized the scale of that loss: that some things simply cannot be done without a heart.

Nonetheless, I see nary a pleasant thing about it.


27) He's the Sham
Day: 149
Report by: Xion

That man wearing the Organization's coat-- that jerk! He's too powerful. I can't beat him unless I get stronger.

And I'm not a sham. I'M NOT. He is. He's the one pretending to be something he isn't!


28) Dealing with Xion
Day: 150
Report by: Saix

As expected, the Duplicate is starting to show its limits. The Program showed promise, but a puppet is just a puppet: something to be toyed with until it breaks.

I am utterly at a loss as to what Roxas and Axel see in that thing. How best to dispose of it merits my consideration going forward.


29) Those Dreams
Day: 151
Report by: Xion

I wasn't ready to see Roxas again. I can't help but compare us. We both use the Keyblade, but we're so different.

Does he dream? It seems like that's all I do anymore. Last night I dreamed of the ocean. I was drowning.



Xaldin


30) Like a Real Person
Day: 152
Report by: Axel

Roxas and Xion must have had it out over something. Knowing them, it's something dumb, but still.

Watching them, it's like they're human. It's messing with my head.

I kind of wonder if Roxas understood all that about the wrong buttons. I get the sense a lot of it went right over his head.


31) This is Gonna be a Hit!
Day: 153
Report by: Demyx

I've got me new hit single!

X-face is always barking at me to work, but what's he expect me to do against a monster like that? I mean, stop and think about skill sets when you divide up the labour already!


32) The No. I Project
Day: 171
Report by: Saix

Xion failed to complete its mission. If this continues, destroying it and using the next Replica as the Duplicate would undoubtedly yield a higher-grade copy.

No. I was among the initial lot, which naturally raises questions about its capabilities. At present, it is nothing short of broken. I cannot fathom why Xemnas would want to keep it.


33) The Meaning Behind the Worlds
Day: 172
Report by: Axel

There has to be something to what Saix said. Why isn't Xion qualified to be one of us? He said to just look at her, but at what? The fact that she looks like Namine?

Xion and Namine must be connected. Whose Nobody is Xion, anyway? What is Saix hiding?


34) The Gamble
Day: 173
Report by: Luxord

I find myself envying the children. Perhaps some fundamental difference exists between those who become Nobodies as adults and otherwise.

The longer you have lived, the more you are positioned to lose with such a gamble. But a child can look forward, unafraid even in the face of immeasurable odds. I doubt they even see life as a gamble the way we do.


35) Just a Replica
Day: 174
Report by: Saix

Xion continues to sleep. All analysis on its function suggests no marked change. The copying appears to be working, but a Replica is a Replica. My latest report to Xemnas on this net me no clear answers. He simply stood, smiling. At times I find his thinking impenetrable.


36) Dreams, or Memories?
Day: 193
Report by: Xion

I finally wake up, just to pass out again? Why? Because I'm a failure? I dreamed the whole while I was out. It was something nostalgic, but what? Why can't I remember? It could be key memory from my human life. All I can remember is the sound of waves, gentle, in the distance.


37) The Replica
Day: 194
Report by: Axel

I thought I'd never see the word "Replica" again. Any rational man would realize the Riku Replica was not likely unique, but I'm the only one in the Organization who knew of his exceptional copying functionality, and that he ultimately formed a sense of self. The fact that I knew all that and still never noticed the truth about Xion speaks to how remarkable a Replica she must be.

But my questions remain unanswered. Who is she a Replica of? Namine? Kairi? Or perhaps someone entirely different? Why did the Orgnaization admit her into this membership? And why would such a fine Replica fall unconscious or sporadically lose its command of the Keyblade?


38) Xion
Day: 224
Report by: Axel

Even if Xion is a Replica-- a puppet-- she's still Xion. I understand that in my head, but how do I interact with her now? Riku-Replica was just a tool, but I can't just use Xion. No, I was wrong to have just used Riku-Replica in the first place. How is a man-made puppet any less worthy than a Nobody that was never meant to exist at all?

They're both ambiguous. Tenuous at best. And she's my friend. Even if neither of us should exist, that doesn't invalidate the bonds we form. Next break we get, I told her we'd all go to the beach. I hope we get the chance. Our little summer vacation. I know if we can get together and laugh about stupid stuff, this nagging doubt will go away.


39) Secrets About Me
Day: 225
Report by: Xion

My body feels heavy, and my head aches. I'm too busy dreaming to get any rest from sleep. Axel knows something. He's hiding some secret. It must be in Castle Oblivion. That's where I was born.


40) Final Stages
Day: 255
Report by: Xemnas

Xion's appearance should vary based on the relation of the viewer to her. Saix sees her simply as a puppet. The program approaches completion. Through Roxas, Xion is assembling a copy of the hero of the Keyblade. As proof, she sometimes appears to take on his form to my eyes.


41) Who We Each See
Day: 256
Report by: Xigbar

Xion's dissapearance is fascinating. If she really is breaking from our control, it's a sign of her approaching the essence of the hero. It seems Saix doesn't truly "see" her. I'm curious to know how she appears to the others. I see her as... him, though I suspect that Xemnas sees entirely something else in her.


42) In the Cards
Day: 257
Report by: Luxord

The air is charged. I can feel it. You go out on a big gamble at a time like this, and you're going to lose big. That said, it's betting against the worst odds that nets you the biggest win. I'm eager to see how this hand plays out.


43) Behind the Truth
Day: 276
Report by: Axel

Xion is gone. Roxas still doesn't know anything, but Xion found out. That's why I need to find her. We don't have hearts, so we accept the facts we're given as the truth. But something far more important lies behind that truth. Saix would laugh at people with no hearts calling one another friends, but that doesn't make it not so.

As the Nobody of the hero of the Keyblade and the Replica of that Nobody, these two are special. Unique in every since of the word. But that doesn't change the fact that we're friends. Nothing will. Got it memorized, Xion?


44) True Agenda
Day: 277
Report by: Saix

Axel and Roxas are up to something. No plot they concoct will change the fact that the Organization has cast off Xion, though. Our plans have split, diverged, and advance now to the next stage. The No. I project and Replica program merely paved the way. Our true goals lie elsewhere.


45) Hidden Truth
Day: 296
Report by: Xigbar

None of us really know everything that's going on in Castle Oblivion. Some rooms even Xemnas doesn't know about. Not many are ever aware that Xion was born there. I wonder if the truth about that place will ever surface.


46) Contact with Riku
Day: 297
Report by: Axel

The man they're calling the imposter, that fake Organization member? It's Riku. Roxas could very well remember that, somewhere deep in his memories. Still, it's too soon to report this. I need to know why Xion was with him first.If she's siding with the hero. it could easily mean her erasure. What are you planning to do, Xion?


47) Change of Plans
Day: 298
Report by: Saix

Axel failed to report that the imposter and Xion are working together. Instead, that news came from Roxas. The boy is far more easily handled than Axel, but now Axel has captured Xion and returned her to us. His motives are impossible to read. Our plans can be altered if necessary, but doing so can only delay their realization.


48) The Value of a Lie
Day: 299
Report by: Axel

Roxas doesn't trust me after the whole Xion incident, but I can't tell him the truth yet. So I keep lying. It's no big deal when you're a Nobody. There's no guilt, no feeling at all. So why does it still sting, just a little, when I lie to him? All my dealings with Roxas give me this bizarre illusion of humanity.


49) Us and the Sunset
Day: 300
Report by: Xion

We watched the sun set today. The three of us. I didn't think we'd ever be able to do that again. It's like that dream I had-- the one where I was by the shore with Roxas and Axel, watching the sun set over the water. I just want to stay with them. But how? What should I do?


50) Xion or Roxas?
Day: 301
Report by: Axel

Xion is burning through missions at full tilt. She seems frantic. Why, I don't know. And speaking of, I still don't know what to say to Roxas. Even without my orders from Saix, I'd do anything to stop Roxas from being erased. I just don't know if I can stand by and let that happen to Xion, either.

51) My Place
Day: 321
Report by: Xion

Axel's always helped me out, so I just assumed he would again. How long has he known about me? Maybe since long before we met in Castle Oblivion. But he told me to think for myself. I was so happy. But now, as I get stronger, Roxas keeps getting weaker.

I shouldn't exist anymore. They say that Nobodies were never meant to exist, but I'm the real affront. But before I'm gone, I want to help Roxas and Axel. Even just a little. I think the boy I saw today is the same Sora from my memories.


52) The Plan
Day: 322
Report by: Xemnas

Be they a puppet or the hero's Nobody, we merely need a functional Keyblade master. The details are unimportant. The puppet has developed to a point where the hero of the Keyblade may be entirely redundant. Indeed, perhaps we ought never allow Sora to awaken. He cannot be controlled. He will rise up against us. We must move our agenda ahead with that firmly in mind.


53) What I Must Do
Day: 352
Report by: Xion

Riku gave me this time. Axel told me to spend it thinking for myself. The organization is determined to erase either me or Roxas. They'll never allow us to coexist. I love Roxas and Axel. I'm sure Saix would scoff at that. Call it a trick of my artificial memories. But the time I spent on that clock tower were real.

I wish the three of us could stay together, just like this, forever.

But I have to end this. I'll never forget today's sunset. Even if Roxas and Axel do, I won't forget.


54) A Future That Never Was
Day: 353
Report by: Axel

I couldn't tell Xion she was wrong, and I can't bring myself to end her. But it's either that, or I have to erase Roxas. There's no future where the three of us can sit around and eat ice cream. I know Roxas will never understand. I don't want to acknowledge it myself.



Zexion


55) Where I Belong
Day: 354
Report by: Xion

I wanted to see Roxas one more time, but couldn't. What would I say? Did I ever really exist? Even if not, I just hope that those times we spent watching the sunset were real. I know Namine will tell me how to get back where I belong. I should hurry to see her.


56) Mind
Day: 355
Report by: Xigbar

The gears of Xemnas' plans have begun to spin wild since the loss of half our membership at Castle Oblivion. The results are there, but can this state of affairs fairly be called a success? If Kingdom Hearts can be said to possess a mind of its own, it is surely rejecting Xemnas-- no, rejecting Xenahort. Roxas left the Organization today.


57) Unforeseen Events
Day: 356
Report by: Saix

Our plans never accounted for the possibility of both Xion and Roxas leaving. How did this come to pass? When did Roxas grow strong enough to outmuscle me? What were you really after, Lea? We joined the Organization at the same time, and formulated our plan. At this point, it's just and idle fantasy. Everything changed. You, and me.


58) To My Best Friend
Day: 357
Report by: Axel

Roxas left. It's so like him to just leave that WINNER ice cream stick behind. Come tomorrow, I'll probably get the order to hunt him down, but leaving that here makes it feel so permanent. I wish the three of us-- three? No. That the two of us could share some ice cream again someday. That's what it is to be friends.


59) Goals
Day: 358
Report by: Xemnas

With luck, we can bring Roxas back into our fold, but even if Sora should awaken, as the hero of the Keyblade, he is bound to keep unlocking hearts. If he should come to target us, we need simply subdue him and use his powers ourselves once more. I must become one with Kingdom Hearts. I will become a higher existence. All of my true ambitions begin there.

Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days Reports

Home | Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days


1) Meaning
Day: 7
Report by: Xemnas

A name defines an object. Describes the span of it. Gives it purpose.

We embarked upon the Replica Program to ensure our new power stays ours. Now, our shadow puppet, "No. I", lives. It needs a name. Something to define it. To give the hollow vessel a purpose.


2) Roxas
Day: 8
Report by: Axel

Seems like we're getting new members every day. No. XIII was a boy, Roxas. Now we've got a No. XIV, Xion.

Today's mission was to show Roxas the ropes. I feel like they've had me babysitting him since he got here. He's not a bad kid, but he's spacey. Good fighter, though. At least I won't be bored.


3) On Track
Day:
Report by: Saix

Xion is being monitored. Roxas, meanwhile, has begun his training exercises.

It is imperative we keep Xion from having undue contact with Roxas until we are certain it will perform as expected-- which will take another 10 days, if Vexen's convictions are to be trusted.

As for the Keyblade master, Marluxia will no doubt be keeping an eye on him.


4) This Kid?
Day: 14
Report by: Axel

Another mission with Roxas today. Is he seriously my responsibility? At least he's starting to talk like a normal person. Maybe that means his memory's coming back.

Still, this kid's supposed to be the Keyblade master's Nobody? I don't see it.


Saix


5) How Dare They
Day: 15
Report by: Larxene

Ugh! How DARE they shut me out of monitoring the Keyblade master! And then to send me off to teach that half-baked Nobody basic magic?!

I should've had him light ME on fire.

It won't be long now, though. Once I'm over at C.O., our plan goes into action. No more playing nanny. Ever.


6) Castle Oblivion
Day: 22
Report by: Axel

They pushed up the C.O. plan. Our little hero with the key must've made a move.

Me and his Nobody have been meeting up for ice cream the last few days. Not the best conversationalist, but at least he's mastered a few facial features besides "doom" and "gloom".

I told him about C.O., but he didn't seem to follow. Guess that's understandable.


7) Research Entry 326
Day: 23
Report by: Vexen

The Program is largely on track. No. I, my finest Replica, has proven an even greater success than anticipated.

I intend to take the other vessel-- judged unfit for number status-- to Castle Oblivion, where I will subject it to further testing.

One thing is clear: should these Replicas not be classified as a special sort of Nobody?


8) The Upper Floors
Day: 24
Report by: Zexion

Marluxia has succeeded in leading the Keyblade master to the castle.

I sense multiple threads at work, but details on each of the projects are scarce. I suspect some alleged organization projects are secretly private machinations.

Marluxia seems especially suspect.


9) Hollow Ties
Day: 25
Report by: Lexeaus

Pressing Zexion for answers would be a waste of time. I know that, but this dearth of information is hard to accept. What's happening on the upper levels? What ought we be doing down here? They hug their truths close and leave the rest to speculate.

Zexion talks of the bond we share as an Organization, but how could such a thing exist? Still, he remains the only one I can trust.


10) Axel's Actions
Day: 26
Report by: Zexion

Simple deduction suggests Axel's outwardly inscrutable actions are the result of some directive from Saïx.

Why else eliminate Vexen? He simply wanted to do research. Did we not all stand to gain from the fruits of his Program? What is Axel thinking?


11) Organization Dog
Day: 27
Report by: Marluxia

Axel is in the way, though I don't know if he's aware of our plot.

Vexen had no part in our plans-- why eliminate him, assuming Axel's orders were to root out traitors to the organization? Discerning his motives merits our full attention.


12) Dealing with Traitors
Day: 28
Report by: Axel

I've uncovered most of what I need to know about the Replica Program, but where's the other one? I can't find any trace of it.

...Vexen was caught in the middle. Pitiable, but unavoidable. I could not risk his Program falling into their hands.

Of greater concern are the traitors. Not the obvious turncoats, but the ones who will get in his and my way. The Keyblade master is not our enemy.


13) Strange Feeling
Day: 50
Report by: Xion

Roxas woke up today. I think he was dreaming the whole time.

Being with him feels strange. Familiar. Like listening to the waves crash up against the shore. But why?


14) Measures Must Be Taken
Day: 51
Report by: Saix

The Replica Program continues apace, but something has gone wrong at Castle Oblivion. The Dusks returned with word that none of those we dispatched survived-- but the news came in fragments. I still know too little to extract the truth.

I doubt Axel would be among those lost, but I must plan for the worst. First, I must locate the Keyblade master.


15) Another Mission
Day: 52
Report by: Axel

I've lost track of the Keyblade master and the other intruders. I'm the only one left in the castle. Everybody else has been destroyed. My orders were to end the traitors, but I think by this point, I fit that bill better than anybody.

There's one last thing I need to look into while I'm here.


16) The Traitor's End
Day: 71
Report by: Xigbar

Saix had a hand in what went down at Castle Oblivion-- well, more like a whole arm. Which means Axel was in on it as well.

It's a fact that Xemnas ordered Axel to take out the traitors, orders which went through Saix. No specific names were given, but naturally Xemnas knew who the turncoats were right from the get-go.


17) Human
Day: 72
Report by: Axel

The longer you know someone, the less you need to speak in clear terms. Everything gets across with a wink and a nudge, a little reading between the lines...

When it comes to what befell our late comrades at Castle Oblivion, ambiguity suits me just fine.

But the Keyblade master and Roxas come out and say every little thing that comes to mind. Maybe that's human, or maybe they're just special.


18) What Now?
Day: 73
Report by: Xion

I lost the ability to use the Keyblade, and I have no idea why. I don't know what to do about it. About anything.

It happened suddenly, after Roxas woke up. If I can't collect hearts anymore, the Organization has no use for me. This is terrible.



19) Xion's Face
Day: 74
Report by: Axel


Honestly, I never got why Roxas was so crazy about Xion. I know they both joined up around the same time, and they're both rookies, but how do you get close to somebody who hides their face all the time?

Well, I saw it today. All of a sudden, No. XIV up and takes off... her hood. Xion is a girl, and she looks just like Namine.


20) Gotta Do Something
Day: 75
Report by: Xion

Roxas has been coming along on my missions to help out, since I can't use the Keyblade. Axel is covering for me, so I should be safe for now. But what am I going to do if I never get the Keyblade back? I can't lie forever.


21) All Goes Apace
Day: 94
Report by: Saix

The hearts collected by our two Keyblade wielders, Roxas and Xion, have gathered together; and now, almighty Kingdom Hearts waxes large in the night sky.

Our efforts have come to bear fruit, nearly ripe for the plucking. All plans proceed smoothly - alarmingly so, in fact, though this is no time to be deterred by paranoia.


22) My Past
Day: 95
Report by: Xion

Neither Roxas or I have any memory of our human lives. I don't even remember my first days as a Nobody.

Roxas said he was the same, but I'm not so sure. For me, it's a total blank. I can't even remember the day I met Roxas, or Axel. It's all a blur.


23) Friends
Day: 96
Report by: Axel

Xion regained her ability to wield the Keyblade. I don't know how or why. Maybe there's more to the Keyblade master they're not telling me about.

I feel like I've been spending more time talking to Roxas and Xion lately than my old friend, Saix. This has to have been what it was like, friendship.


24) Sooo Bored
Day: 97
Report by: Demyx

Every day it's work, work, work. I'm dead bored, and I'd kill for some vacay.

A Nobody needs his rest, am I right? And when I get it, it's gonna be nothing
but me and my sitar. Sigh...

25) Him and Roxas
Day: 117
Report by: Xigbar

Roxas is maturing at an impressive rate. His face, the way he handles the Keyblade, it's all exactly the same.

The worlds seem so divided and alone, but there's always that steady thread there to connect them. And we Nobodies can never escape the things we did as humans. So it goes.
