Suzu walked down the back paths of Radiant Garden. Recently she had learned about the hundreds of paths beyond the town. She knew there was more but she had never explored them. If she was to be in this world for along time, she figured it best she getto know it, explore it hundreds of times, to get used to the senses around.
She'd been memorizing the paths, and going over the walls, and she had come across very few living things. She had passed many heartless, but their senses were so faint, that many times she never noticed them.
She attacked them when they attacked, but otherwise she never came in contact with one. She feared the day when she would have to fight one out of her control, one she could not win againest.
She listened to the sounds of her feet on the ground, and memorized how the different surfaces sounded below. She had come into a rough room. It had crystals, she could not see the bueaty of them though. And as she walked by she had walked out onto the ledge. This is where she now stood.
She peered over the edge. She knew she wasat the very end, her feet just on the edge, one step more and she would fall to perish. She knew this, she stayed still, with the plate still over her eyes. Her hair was pulled back from her knees, coming infront of her face, and landing over her shoulder when the wind stopped.
It was quite, and hr thoughts ran...

Roxas walked carefully through what looked like a crystal fissure. He admired the mirror images of everything everywhere. It was the first time he had seen something like that, and it was rather impressive. After a few moments of scouring the area, he saw a girl on the edge of a cliff not to far ahead.
Who would come out here?
He scratched the back of his head and walked over to the person. He made it slow and cautious, to avoid being attacked. He didn't like being so suspicious, but he didn't really have a choice as of late. In a normal voice, he called out to the girl a little ways away. No more than 15 feet at the most.
"Uh...Hey!" He wasn't really sure how else to strike up a conversation.

Another challenge of the mind. She thought. For as soon as she heard the first foot step of the person, she could not sense them. She knew she would not be able to sense this one at all. She turned to face him, but unable to see him. She looked in that direction of the voice.
"Is there a reason you're here? I can't sense you. Why is that?"
She had wondered this question many times before, buthad never bothered to ask. Why could she senseothers, but not these select few? It was so strange to come upon them every once and again. Sometimes an enemy would only havea faint sense, sometimes full strength, and sometimes nothing....
It was like to her they were dead. But, she knew they could not be dead. That was not true. They were soemthing else. but, what?

Roxas got a little defensive at the sudden questioning.
"Maybe I want to enjoy the view too!" He said in a louder tone. It was after that he tried to figure out her question. It was worded very strangly.
Sense me...? Oh, I get it!
Roxas was quiet for a moment. It was still a sort of sensitive topic for him, but if he was ever going to get over it, he'd have to learn to talk about it.
"I...I don't even really exist. A nobody..."
He could hardly make out the sentence, but hoped she got the general idea of it.

Suzu nodded a little.
"That is why I can't tell you're really there. Your the third now."
She said with a small chill in her voice. She slowly walked off the edge and towards the center. She couldn't find the exact location of Roxas anymore. She asked a simple question to get location.
"What is your name?"
She asked softly as she did not want to run into him. She needed to pinpoint him first.

Roxas started to realized that she probably couldn't even see him at all. That was odd. Was she blind? Or was it something else? Or maybe he was just becoming mroe of a nobody then before. He spoke up a little bit.
"Roxas. What's yours?"
He didn't normally say more than his name, but he was feeling a little daring today. Still, he wasn't sure if she was hostile or not. She was very hard to read. But he did know she had run into three other nobodies. Maybe some from the organization. Maybe she could actually help him!

Suzu leaned to her side a little. She crossed her arms and looked towards him, he was coming into view for sure.
"Suzu, not that it should matter much to you."
She could never see the true appearance of someone, just the area they were in, and what was around them. She faced her head downwards a little and tilted it to the side.
"What are you doing out here? Not many people do."

"Looking for Organization 13. Isn't that what everybody's doing?"
He said it a little sarcastically and shrugged. Now a days, it seemed like everyone was looking for that group. And sure enough, they were no where to be found. At least he found one member here, or some sort of memeber. He wasn't really sure.
"If you know where I can find them, please tell me..."
It was sort of a rhetorical statement, considering he wasn't expecting her to answer so willingly to someone like him.
"Why are you here?" He asked in counter. Usually when an Organization member was somewhere, it meant something strange was going on in that area.

Suzu faced towards him for amoment. "First tell me what the organization is? Is it filled with people like you? What is it that makes you you? That I can not tell you're then unless you are talking?" She did not understand why they were not there at all. Was something missing? Or was it her problem? Was it her that had something wrong with her? "Is there any reason for it?"

Roxas got a little irratated at the sudden barage of personal questions. Who did she think she was anyway?
"Yeah they are. And it's because we have no hearts, alright!?"
He said it as bitterly as he felt about it.
"I don't know what makes us us. We just are. And if you can't see us, then that's YOUR problem."
The second thing he said was less bitter, and less angrily loud. It was more like his regular tone of voice. This girl was wierd, and she obviously wasn't with the organization like he had hoped.

"Well, aren't you real pleasent, can't hold back your anger?" She said as she crossed her arms and leaned to one side. "I'm really bored. Give me a challenge, come on." She said grabbing her weapon. She was always wishing for a challenge, many times she did not face one, more weaklings in this city. She did aknowledge though that she wasn't at the top, but she figured no one could. As soon as some one was strongest, a stronger person came to town. She would never be at the top. She seemed to be seeing lots of fighters lately, this place was filled, she could tell who was a fighter and who wasn't. "I want a fight, do you understand that?" She said, moking him.

Roxas's eyes narrowed and he gritted his teeth. This person had offended him a little TOO much. And now she wanted to fight? Normally Roxas could be confused, but this time, he drew the Oblivion and the Oathkeeper and jumped into battle. He spun quickly Suzu, and rounded about. He made it X with his keyblades and pulled them across each other into her back.
"I want you to stop talking! Understand THAT!?" Was his rebuttle.

Suzu gripped her weapon, she sensed the weapon, as she sensed everything else. She turned around and put her weapon under his keyblade, she pulled it upwards away from her. "I'm sorry, did you say something?" She said in a joking tone, he seemed that he couldn't control any of his anger. "Have you always been angry?" She still said in the diffcult tone. She went back to battle. She began to repeatdly striking him, moving with speed to move her arms, and trying to break his defence, or his weapon.

Luckily for Roxas, keyblades didn't break easily. With his two, he was able to block the majority of the attacks, while getting minor scratches from the rest. She was taunting him. She wanted him to be angry and fight. Or at least that's what he thought. Roxas made a powerful horizontal slash and jumped back some ways.
"...You're right. You make me angry. But I don't have to fight you."
With that, he withdrew his keyblades. Even if she attacked him again, he'd stick to dodging. She offended him quickly and it threw him off. He couldn't compose himself, especially when she wanted to fight him. She was a strange one, and likely dangerous. Roxas slowly turned his back to her, but kept his wits about him just in case.
"Besides...since I'm a nobody, I shouldn't be able to feel anything at all."
He wasn't sure what he was even getting at. In a way, he was saying that he didn't care. In another way, he was saying that he supposedly didn't care, but in reality did.

"Why should you let that stop you?" She said as she wanted to test how he was without his blade, now that he had none. She ran at him quickly, swinging from a high poition down this time, not normal for her. She swung, and her hair fell in front of her face as she jumped back. She figured he had blocked perfectly, for she did not sense anything of hers left on him. She smirked a little to him, "But you are a pretty good fighter, I can at least give you that. Suzu."
