Day 319: ~ Emblem ~
[Roxas' video feed is clicked on with a grunt and a soft thud as the teen hits the ground, and his grip is loose enough to let it slide away from his hand. The only clue that he's still alive is the slight rise and fall of his chest as he remains face-down in the dirt with his hood up. Wherever he is exactly, it's hard to tell, but it's just as obvious that he's somewhere very deep in the Mist. Why is he there, and why did he go down? Who knows, but it looks like he's not getting up anytime soon.
Not even a minute goes by and there's a floating, dark cloaked skeleton that appears through the Mist as it heads in Roxas' direction. Abruptly, the wraith pauses in its travel as it seems to study the weapon lying before the teen until finally continuing to float towards him. It's only a few feet away when the space beside Roxas distorts into black and silver tendrils that crawl up into the air, twist, and expand in a flash. A large, grey figure from the chaos emerges: something almost human-like but too distorted to make a complete resemblance. The wraith doesn't stop moving though, and it soon meets a long sword that is swung in its direction from the new monster to block its path. Despite that, there's a parry from some invisible force (or at least the wraith's invisible blade), and the monster side-steps to force the undead creature back only to step on top of the feed and turn it off. It's not long after that that the Forge turns on again, but the wraith is gone and the Samurai Nobody is studying the device with one hand. The other hand is busy rolling Roxas over onto his back, and the movement reveals a strange emblem on its sleeve as Roxas groans underneath the shadow from his hood that's covering his face. Looking between the teen and the Forge, the Nobody finally returns the device to his hand and clicks it off again.
The only thing that indicates that Roxas is okay is the audio feed he sends out much later:]
...Does anyone have any advice on how to deal with bad dreams?
