[totally making this room up. but hey, naminé's gotta sleep somewhere and there's no bed in that white room >_>]
For once in a great while, the mansion was silent, void of the scratching of pen on paper or the clicking of buttons by an old man. The white room lay dormant, the basement dark, the entrance silent.
And then, in the depths of the old manor, a portal of darkness appeared. It swirled black and purple within a small room, and it seemed as if it had been spontaneously created by nothingness.
In a sense, this is exactly what had happened.
And then Naminé stepped into the small room, which contained a white bed, a white lamp, a white floor, white walls, a white door and a white dresser. It was well organized and it seemed as though no one lived in there. The girl's arm's were weighed down by a blonde boy, which she unceremoniously and unwillingy dumped onto the bed. Thankfully, he landed on his back and all she had to do was get his head on a pillow. She stepped back, at a loss of what to do.
"Are you awake?" she asked carefully, disturbing the silence that had made itself at home in the mansion.

Roxas stirred a little bit. He was on the way to sleep, but not a comfortable one. He forced his eyes open and touched his face. He was normal again, and thankful for it. He took his hand away and looked at it. He was still bleeding a little. He looked on the bed, seeing how pure white it was, and sat up quickly. He didn't want to stain the bed with blood...it was just wierd.
"Yeah. Are you alright?"
His first concern was how she was. She was in that battle after all, and he knew she wasn't used to it. Still, she made out better then him, that was for sure. He saw the room he was in, white and much like Namine's drawing room. They must've been in the mansion, which meant that they were back in Twilight Town! He couldn't figure out how to get back himself, but now that he was here, he could find his friends, and learn more about himself....His train of thought stopped. First he'd spend time with the friend he had. With that thought, he smiled a little at Namine, thankful that she couldn't read thoughts in a way.

Naminé nodded, smiling and tucking a piece of hair behind her ears. She then walked over to her dresser, opening the middle drawer and pulling out a large band-aid-like item. She then walked over by her bed, opening the band-aid and turning Roxas's arms so that she could put it on. "I'm fine," she replied. She was left with a small scratch and a bruise and, in her opinion, had fared rather well. "Do you need anything?"

Roxas smiled, but also cringed a little at his wound. It was a little scary. For a while there, he was beginning to think that Nobodies didn't bleed. He sighed and shook his head gently at Namine. He was silent for a second and layed back down on the bed, with his arms behind his head.
"I wonder what they wanted..."
Or who they were, for that matter...
"This is where you sleep, right?"
Roxas was curious about this place. It was so odd and seemed so out of place in Twilight Town.

Naminé yanked her hand back at the cringe, not wanting to hurt him. She let out a sigh and listened to his first statement, pulling a chair out of a corner and placing it next to the bed. She sat down, smoothing her dress. At his question, she nodded, looking around the small room. "Yes," she said with a rather forced smile, blushing a bit. "It's not much. And people usually think it's a bit white..." She had always liked white: it was crisp and clean and, if you looked at it just right you could see every color of the spectrum in its depths. Plus, it gave Naminé a break from the constant black of the dark portals. "So sorry if you don't like it that much..." She didn't see the reason for the apology, but it had come out anyways.

"No, no! It's great." He said hastily. He sat up again, and walked around the room, admiring the simplicity. He enjoyed it all, and laughed for some reason. He wasn't even sure why. He went over and stoob next to Namine and crouched to be at almost eye level.
"So where to? Maybe we can find something almost as nice as the oasis!"
His voice took a wierd airey quiet tone. He had heard it before, but not for a while. He couldn't even remember the last time he talked like that before.

Naminé watched him walk around a bit, her smile becoming a bit smaller and natural. She looked up a bit, thinking and laughing a bit at his tone. "Wherever you want to go. There's a lot of places in Twilight Town," she said a bit cheerily. She pushed the chair back and got up, smoothing her dress out. Out of habit, she smoothed the bed a bit.

"Alright."
Roxas thought of all the places he could remember...The train station. He knew that lead somewhere. The place where he had fought Axel for the first time. He had seen a really nice hill farther back, but never got there. That's where he wanted to go.
"Sunset....hill? I think that's what it's called, right? Let's go there."
He headed for the door and put his hand on the knob, awaiting for Namine to come and either agree or disagree.

Naminé waited for his answer, nodding when she got one. She hadn't really been to Sunset Hill that much considering she was usually locked up in the mansion in some way or another. It'd be nice to see somewhere new–it'd add 'zest' to her life, she decided. She pateitntly waited for Roxas to open the door. Her face lit up, suddenly, and she grabbed a hair tie from a drawer due to the fact she was sick of the blonde tresses that kept falling in her face. Soon, that was solved and she grinned at Roxas. "Ready when you are."

Roxas smiled and nodded. He pushed the door open and made his way out. He didn't really remember how to get there, so when he was a little confused he'd look to Namine for help. In what seemed like no time at all, they had made it to the train station where one train was waiting for them. Luckey for them, the train was free to citizens.
Roxas let Namine go on first, then followed as the doors shut behind him and the train started to move. It went over the rails smoothly, but still made quite a bit of noise. Roxas was actually excited. It wasn't everyday he got to just look around for no reason at all.
"The sun never sets here, huh?" He said as he gazed out a window, sitting down. His statement meant a number of different things, but he'd let Namine choose her own definition to it.

Naminé followed, showing him around here and there until they were in the station. Before she knew it, she was on one of the simple trains that led to Sunset Residential District. She sat opposite Roxas, fixing a warm gaze on her own window. She could tell roxas was excited and it amused her due to the fact that it rubbed off a bit on her–yes, even she was a bit excited. She let the sun warm her face a bit, then was faced with a question that caused her gaze to shift to Roxas. "No, it doesn't," she replied, taking it as a statement that meant the sun sitting in the sky.

Roxas smiled, and gazed out to the sun. After a while, the train pulled over and stopped with a slight screech. Roxas got up and walked out the door, assuming Namine was behind him. He stretched and yawned loudly. He let his arms drop as he walked down the stairs a little. He blanked for a second and looked helplessly to Namine.
"Uh...where from here?" He laughed a little as he said it. The one place he had been recently and he couldn't even remember it.

Naminé followed, laughing a bit herself when Roxas asked the question. She brushed by, going down the steps two at a time and supposing that Roxas would follow. She turned right, going down a last flight of stairs before walking on a sidewalk that passed a trolley that went back and forth and back and forth. Her hands brushed over a planter full of pretty white daisies and her gaze traveled over the sea. She wondered how much it cost to go to the beach. When she could, she turned and walked up more steps, across a bridge, and caught her reflection in a waterfall before stopping at the base of the hill. She turned, hands behind her back, a smile on her face. "At the top of this path is Sunset Hill," she said, the distant sound of a dog barking and children playing reaching her ears.

Roxas smiled and put his fist out in light triumph.
"Alright! Let's go."
He saw the waterfall behind her and had a quick deja vu. It wasn't quite a whole memory, but enough for him to quirk his eyebrows a tad. He shook out of it and started jogging up the path towards the hill. He was excited. Maybe he'd find someone he knew up there. And if not, he still had Namine. And as long as she was with him, it would be a good time.

Naminé laughed, smililng and following him up at a quick walk. Halfway up, a dog ran circles around her and she stopped to pet it before continuing. The sun peeked up over the water, causing the liquid to glisten playfully. After a moment, she was by Roxas's side.
"I haven't been here in a long time," she said with a smile.
