(Although it was never specified in FF: Incarcerated, this RP takes place in NYC. For me, at least. I'll probably leave anyway.)

Callum turned off the TV and looked at his clock. It was 2:00 A.M. He couldn't sleep ever since he learned a powerful game villain was inside him. Vanitas. Ever since Vanitas possessed him (If he did, maybe he was in there since birth, so gained influence) Callum had been a jerk. He didn't have any friends now. I hate you, Vanitas! He heard a scoff. Really? Do you? Callum summoned his keyblade. "I won't let this take me over. Vanitas, you won't win." His void gear looked ominous. Too ominous.

(Victoria)

 

After the amazing adventures that had happened a year ago, Victoria had moved away from her simple life and was now the leader of a government agencie in California. She haven't seen Paul for 4 months, since he was off on an assignment that he had to go do alone. Victoria and Paul had gotten engaged after they had given off their careers of being performers. Victoria was at her HQ doing some finishing touches for the night. She looked at the clock, "11 pm, where does the time go? Man, I should get home before it gets too late." Victoria said. 'I think that is impossible, its already to late.' Xion said. After Victoria somehow lost connection with Lightning, Xion had taken over. Victoria drove home after locking everything up.

 

(Aria and Noel)

 

After the little reuion last year, Aria had become the way that she wanted. She finally became more popular than anyone else in media, and she had also gotten the dream wedding of her life where she got married to the fabulous drummer / awsome nerd Noel Peterson. They live in a mansion in New York City next to Central Park. That night, Aria couldnt sleep very well. She noticed that the clock said 2 am. 'Peter, why is it that I lost Noel for you?' Aria asked Peter Pan in her mind. 'I dont know, I just knew that you had been used before and that I needed help so I came to you. Just like Simba came to her husband." Peter said. Aria then looked at Peterson who was still asleep. 'I like the sound of husband.' Aria thought.

 

(Paul)

 

Paul was at Myrtle Beach in North Carolina. He was staying there for five days until he would more on and find more information on whatever happened to his brother, who was out there somewhere. Paul was down at the beach watching the waves come in one by one. "Zack, do you think I am doing the right thing? Should I just go back home to Victoria?" Paul asked as he twirled his ringer on his finger. Zack appeared beside Paul, "I think you sorta have to find what happened to your brother if you want to be with Victoria again. But hey dont worry, she is doing just fine, I am sure about it." Zack said.

Cyrus sighed. Life was getting hard for him, ever since the 'Voice' came to him.

 

Starting several years ago, the Voice began to speak. The Voice called itself 'Saix'. It was cold and calculating, soon able to make Cyrus' personality the same. At first, Saix gave plans to Cyrus, things Saix wanted accomplished. It wasn't until later when Saix became more of a commenter, commenting on things that went through Cyrus's misreable life.

 

"Mr. Kalt, can you please answer question 7?" Said a teacher, noticing how dstracted Cryus was.

 

"The answer is obviously 72 to the second power. Such a pity that a Nobody like me is better than you."

 

Cyrus sighed, then said "72 squared." Today is going to be along day.... He thought. "Agreed."

Alex was Sitting through his history class at school. It has been Atleast a month since he started to hear a boy named Roxas.

"And what did Germany do as a betrayal to the Soviat Union...Alex?"

Alex looked up, "Uh...yeah they.."

(I want to say I could help you but, I don't know this.)

(You are so helpful Roxas.) Alex said back.

(Wait....they attacked the Soviats because they had factories and such.)

"They had factories, so they attacked to lower their supplies?"

"Close Alex..."

(I only know one thing about betrayal, it never ends well)

Today was going to end in Alex dosing off and then being woken up by Roxas.

(Do you even like school Roxas?)

(Never been to school, wouldn't know)

(Your lucky)

(Same to you)

The Lifestream came out of the earth and started shaping like a person. When it dissipated, James was revealed looking like he had before Mariah killed him at his own request. He landed on his feet and opened his eyes, looking around. "What's going on here!?" he said. "I thought Mariah killed me..." It seems you've been called back from the dead James. Riku said to him. "Who are you? You're not Sephiroth." No, I'm Riku. You have been given a chance at redemption, like I was. You have been given my abilities and powers, though you still retain some of Sephiroth's. "I see." James said. He raised his right arm, noticing that it was still the metal arm he had when he died. "So since I have some of your abilites, does that mean I can use a Keyblade?" Yes, just will it to appear and it will. James did as he was told and the Skull Noise Keyblade appeared in his hand. "Interesting. How much time has passed since my death?" One year.

It was time for break and Alex went to his locker as usual.I didnt think that school was ever this boring.

Welcome to my world Roxas.

I am glad i didnt get to go before i needed to get back into Sora.

Well, be thankful, there are two things i hate about school...work...and the bullies.

Alex heard the footsteps of the school bullies coming around the corner. 'Hey weasel breath, you didnt let me pound ya the other day.'

'I am glad i didnt let you.'

'Well tie to do some catching up.' The bully lifted Alex by the collar.

What are you doing, fight back, you cant let him push ya around.

I am fine, i have been through this before.

I hope you know what you are doing, because if you get hurt i do too.

Alex grabbed ahold of the bully and kicked him, and ran off. 'He is so going to kill me later.'

Keilani finished her painting in art class. So what do you think, Naminé? she asked her new Inhabiter, examining her completed work.

 

“Very nice,” Naminé replied. Keilani could hear the smile in her voice, and she smiled herself. She had been a huge Kingdom Hearts fan for several years, and was absolutely thrilled when Naminé spoke to her one day and told her she was Inhabiting her. Of course, after the initial giddiness, Keilani then wondered if she was just losing her mind, because that was a possibility that she wouldn’t entirely put past herself. But after a while, she didn’t care whether she was crazy or not—she just enjoyed Naminé’s company.

 

“Wait, Keilani,” Naminé said suddenly, her voice a little urgent. “I can sense the presence of another Inhabiter, probably in this school.”

 

Do you know who it is? Keilani asked, her interest piqued.

 

“No…but the presence is a familiar one…”

 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

“Aqua…why did you choose me?” Rebekah asked quietly as lay awake in bed. It was 2:00 in the morning, but she couldn’t sleep.

 

“Because you may not realize it yet, but you have such potential to do great things. You have a good sense of what is right. And, above all, your heart is incredibly strong. The Keyblade doesn’t choose its wielders lightly—but it accepted you.”

 

Rebekah thought back to the day the Stormfall Keyblade appeared in her hand. She couldn’t say exactly what was going on in her mind—it was just a feeling that came over her. She had reached her hand out in front of her impulsively, and the next thing she knew, she was gripping a Keyblade. Fortunately, she knew what the weapon was, because she had played all the Kingdom Hearts games up to Birth By Sleep. But it freaked her out. She had never imagined that these characters from the games actually lived and breathed, much less that one of them would come into her universe and choose to Inhabit her. And she might have to fight…? Help save the world? She wasn’t much of a hero…try bookworm.

 

“I know what you’re thinking,” Aqua said. “Trust me, you have what it takes. You’ll find it in yourself eventually, and I’ll help you. I think you could even become a master someday.”

 

“A master…” Rebekah breathed. It didn’t seem possible. But if Aqua of all people was saying it, maybe it was…

Though only two hours passed, it felt like six had passed when lunch came. But because of Cyrus's personality change due to Saix's possesion, Cyrus barely had any friends. And Saix didn't count.

 

"Well, Saix, how was YOUR day?" Cyrus thought, using some sort of messaging system to communicate.

 

"I prefer not to answer." Saix coldly responded.

 

Cyrus sighed. Most of the school thought he was crazy. Mostly the bullies. They never stopped bullying him, and Saix trying to get Cyrus to fight only made matters worse.

 

"I like to take this time to see how you Somebodies work. It's amusing, where you constantly conflict upon yourself, while us Nobodies enjoy our ability to slip Oblivion and let our subordinates."

 

"Sometimes, I really think I am insane. The only thing that tells me you are real is that I could never dream up this crap."

James was walking around the city. It was the same as he remembered it. He wondered where Mariah was, and how she was doing. He could still feel her lips on his from the kiss they shared before his death. He went to look for her.

(Aria and Noel)

 

When it became afternoon, Aria and Noel were having lunch while watching their big widescreen 3D TV. When Aria was about finished with her food, the phone rang. "I will get that." Aria said. She then picked up the phone and answered it. Noel turned off the TV. A few moments later, "ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!?!? I GET TO, WOW! THATS AMAZING, YES I WILL DO IT. OKAY I WILL SEE YOU THERE." Aria said. Noel walked up to Aria, who was now in the kitchen. "Honey, who was that?" Noel asked. Aria had an excited look on her face. "That was the Nickelodeon. They want me to host this years KCA." Aria said. Noel was shocked, "You mean you get to host your first award show. This is amazing, we have to celebrate." Aria kissed Noel, "There is one thing though, its in California, where my sister is. So we get to see her again, but that means we might run into trouble along the way." Aria said. "Dont worry about that, we can always handle what life throws at us." Noel said. "Okay so I guess we are really doing this." Aria said.

 

(Victoria)

 

Victoria had a quick lunch since there was a ton of work she had to do that day. "Miss Hope, I have detail on someone by the last name of Jackson." Agent 54 said. "Yes, wait which Jackson." Victoria asked. "This Jackson is actually of the same family as your Jackson. Names Avan Jackson, age 27. He was last found on island 49 close to New York City." Agent 54 said. "Yes, very good work finding that. Please contact Paul to come meet us here and we will discuss everything that you found." Victoria said. Agent 54 put his hand on his head and soulted, "Yes sir." He then walked away.

Alex was sitting down at som of the benches in the school.

Why do these weird things happen to me?

I asked myself the same question not too long ago.

I feel insane.

How do you think i feel, not that i can but, its not easy being in your head.

Oh really, better than being outside. School, parents, and the other people, its like hell.

You should feel lucky, i never had those things before, just a friend.

Who?

His name is Axel.

I cant keep my friends, they all think i am losing my head.

I have been i your shoes, before my summer vacation was over.

I cant be crazy, and the only reason i know i am not, is because why would i have a voice in my head, especially another teen like me.

Hey i have done nothing wrong here, dont go and blame me...look we both have to come to a compromise at one point. We share the same body for the time being anyway, we might as well get along, who knows we might become friends.

I would like to have a friend that is in front of me, not in my head.

Beggers cant be choosers.

Felix hopped in his 1968 Ford Mustang Boss (http://www.google.com/imgres?q=1968+ford+mustang+boss&hl=en&safe=off&gbv=2&biw=1366&bih=609&tbm=isch&tbnid=OJt0cLddEDzqiM:&imgrefurl=http://www.mustangmonthly.com/tipstricks/mump_0512_1968_ford_mustang_fastback_1970_mustang_boss_302_restore/photo_01.html&docid=Mfx2bqD4oOZGjM&imgurl=http://image.mustangmonthly.com/f/9609557%252Bw750%252Bst0/mump_0512_02_z%252B1968_ford_mustang_fastback_1970_mustang_boss_302_restore%252Bred_front_view.jpg&w=640&h=480&ei=IBSBT8uhJ4T0ggfWwZnBBw&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=576&vpy=174&dur=4542&hovh=194&hovw=259&tx=111&ty=116&sig=102595474511976639227&page=1&tbnh=115&tbnw=139&start=0&ndsp=21&ved=1t:429,r:3,s:0,i:87) he'd packed up everything he'd needed, and since Axel taught him how to summon his chakrams in flames he didn't even have to hide them in his trunk.

 

"So are you really ready to go?" Axel asked.

 

"We've been training all this time, I'm sure I can handle it. Besides, if I don't start looking for answers now I'll always be stuck here in this sleepy old town wondering why," Felix said with a smirk.

 

"Well let's burn rubber, we'll start in New York. That's when Marcus's journal starts mentioning this Vincent guy.." Axel said.

 

"Alright!!! City that never sleeps!!" he yelled. He punched the accelarator and started blasting some Aerosmith.

Is that him? Keilani thought at Naminé.

 

“Yes, I’m pretty sure he’s the one with the Inhabiter,” Naminé replied.

 

Okay... Keilani hoped that Naminé knew what she was talking about. It would be completely humiliating to go up to this guy and find out that he actually wasn’t Inhabited. She looked at the blonde-haired boy closely, and saw the perplexed expression on his face as he sat there alone. Well, here goes. She went over to the bench and casually sat next to him, not too close, but just enough so that she could start a conversation. But how to start? “So, um, you ever have...voices in your head?” she asked him.

 

Well, that was a crazy thing to say. But hey, I guess if he’s not Inhabited after all, the worst that’ll happen is he’ll just dismiss me as mentally unstable.

 

Still, she eagerly awaited his response. If he was Inhabited, it would help prove that she wasn’t just crazy, that Naminé really was inside of her, and not just an invention of her mind.

 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

“Rebekah!” Aqua said. “I sense there’s another Inhabiter nearby. I think the person is outside your house. Go see who it is.”

 

“Are you crazy?” Rebekah hissed. “A girl going outside alone in the middle of the night? In the city? Do you realize how dangerous that is? What if this person--”

 

“The Inhabiter isn’t unsafe. I can feel it. Besides, you’ve got a Keyblade, and I can help you defend yourself if the need rises. What are you so worried about?” Aqua said reassuringly.

 

Rebekah couldn’t come up with anything to counter what Aqua said, and sighed. “Alright.” She put on her street shoes, then crept out of her room and to the front door, making sure to keep quiet and not wake up her roommates. She drew in a breath, unlocked the door, and stepped outside, immediately seeing a young man with blonde hair wandering around. What is he doing? Rebekah thought nervously.

 

“I know him...his Inhabiter, I mean,” Aqua said in awe. “Could he be...the boy Terra passed the Keyblade on to?”

 

Riku, Rebekah thought. Well, then maybe he wasn’t unsafe after all...at least, provided that he wasn’t possessed by Xehanort’s Heartless or anything. She approached him cautiously. “What are you doing out here in the middle of the night?” she asked.

Edited April 8, 201213 yr by Always

"I'm looking for someone, an old friend of mine named Mariah Gates." he said. "My name is James, James Seraphim."

Felix pulled into the old Governor's Mansion at Albany New York. "So, you meant the state...huh Axel?" Felix asked.

 

"Yep...it's dark...and it seems like the wreckage hasn't been touched for a year," Axel answered.

 

"Now that's weird...do you think....someone pulled strings?" Felix asked.

 

"That's a possiblility...maybe the guy who got your Uncle and Cousin?" he responded.

 

"That's what we're here to find out..." Felix said He walked around the wreckage, then stumbled upon a stairwell that went to an old security station, and so they started snooping around.

Mariah Gates? Rebekah thought. He can't be talking about...my cousin? She didn't want to say anything about knowing a Mariah yet, however, because Inhabiter or not, she didn't know this guy, or why he was looking for a girl with the same name as her cousin. “I'm Rebekah,” she told him.

 

“I don't mean to be rude or invasive, but can you invite him into your house? I think we should get to know him better, especially because I'm quite sure that Riku is his Inhabiter.”

 

Alright... Rebekah replied reluctantly. “You're Inhabited, aren't you?” she said to James. “Why don't you come inside and tell me about your Inhabiter? But we'll have to be quiet—my roommates are sleeping.”

"The only way you could know that is if you were one as well." he said, following her. "I was once Inhabited by Sephiroth, but now I am Inhabited by Riku."

It was one of those few moments that Cyrus was actually happy. It was a short walk to his home, and then he could hide in his room until his parents came from work. His walk was uneventful, at least for the most part.He met his occasional 'freind' but most of them edged away from him the moment he came near.

 

"See what you've caused? I used to be quite happy, living a casual lifestyle. Then you come along and ruin it...why?"

"If I could still feel pain, it would be similar to yours. I was once part of an Orginization. I held my place, and even though I too once had a 'friend' that left me, though us Nobodies do not truly care for such trivial things...."

 

"Yeah yeah....you've pretty much gone over this already."

 

Cyrus glanced to the side, realizing he almost passed his house. He looked around hoping no one that knew him saw that. Cyrus quickly ran up to the door.

Alex was walking ack home, he knew his parents would be out till later, more time to be alone....welll not technically.

Why cant i just stay home, especially now.

Dont ask me, i am in you remember, i cant really do anything. Just cheer ya on.

Thanks, at least soeone is on my side.

Man, i am getting weird vibes everywhere, do you think there are others like us?

I hope so, dont want to be the only one deemed crazy.

Crazy, you should have seen my last seven days of freedom, now those were crazy.

I guess so.

Alex placed his books on his deesk and went up to his room. He colllapsed on his bed, exhausted.

(Aww I was trying to have Keilani talk to him. )

“Sephiroth?” Rebekah asked in amazement. “How is it that he's...not Inhabiting you anymore? And yes, I am Inhabited. By Aqua.”

(Aria and Noel)

 

"So I was thinking, the whole award show thing is two months away in April, so we still got a month before we have to leave for it, and I was thinking that maybe you would like to do something just as huge as hosting the KCAs?" Noel asked Aria. They were at the table going over plans on what to do for the awards. Aria looked at him, "Spit it out." Noel pulled out a card, "I received this in the mail, after the producers called you." Aria took the card and read it, "Shut up! You booked us on the Today show?" Aria said with gladness in her voice. "Sure did, tomorrow they want us to perform, and so we need to get there a little early in the morning." Noel said. "You are the best husband ever." Aria said. They then walked out of the house and went to their car. They were headed towards the market to pick up a few things they would need when they left.

 

(Victoria and Paul)

 

"Miss Hope, he has arrived." Agent 54 said. Victoria nodded, "Bring him in." Agent 54 soulted and then walked away. Moments later, Paul came up the elevator to Victoria's room. When he got in there, Victoria gave him a welcome home hug. "Welcome back, Jackson." Victoria said. "It is in honor to come back and see you. I came as fast as I could when I heard you might have found my brother." Paul said. "Yes, we might have found him off the coast of New York." Victoria said as she explained everything that they knew.

"I asked Mariah to kill me when I temporarily regained control of my body. He and I died, but somehow the Lifestream brought me back recently and Riku was there. I assume Sephiroth is still apart of the Lifestream." he said.

(sorry always)

Felix rushed out of the busted up building holding a box of video tapes and recordings. He put them in the trunk, and buckled back up.

 

"So, you're off to your Uncle's old friend the CIA agent Brooks to get positive IDs on everyone in the videos?" Axel asked.

 

"God I hate it when you get in my head!!" he said laughing.

 

"Will he be able to give us what we need?" Axel asked.

 

"All the way down to the last cent they've spent," Felix answered.

 

Felix put his foot on the gas and sped out towards the big city of New York to find Agent Brooks.

Keilani never got an answer from the boy. In fact, he got up and left without acknowledging her, looking completely absorbed in his thoughts. But maybe he had heard her, and only pretended not to notice her to cover up the fact that he thought she was crazy for asking about hearing voices in his head. “I guess you were wrong about him,” she mumbled.

 

“No, I'm certain he's Inhabited,” Naminé insisted. “Maybe by Sora...or someone else...it could be Roxas or Xion.”

 

“Well, if it was any of those three, why wouldn't they sense you right away, in such close proximity?” Keilani asked doubtfully. She was beginning to believe that she had legitimately lost her mind.

 

“That, I don't know. But let's find out who he is.”

 

Keilani rolled her eyes. “Why am I even listening to you? You probably don't really exist.” The instant the words came out of her mouth, she wished she could take them back. Whether the voice in her head was really there or not, what she said would probably be hurtful to Naminé. “...I'm sorry. I didn't mean it like that.”

 

“It's okay. I've had much worse things said to me.”

 

Keilani suddenly felt sad for Naminé...all the abuse she had taken while in the captivity of Organization XIII, and then working for DiZ. She shook her head, then walked to the school library and picked up the most recent yearbook. The boy Naminé said was Inhabited looked a little older than her, so she searched the book accordingly. After a while, she finally found the photo of that boy. Alex McCarrell, she thought, reading the name that went with the picture. Well, we know his name now. Can we go?

 

“Sure, let's go.”

 

On the way home, Keilani noticed a red-headed boy who had apparently almost passed his own house, but then ran quickly to his door. That was a little weird.

 

“He's Inhabited, too...”

 

Really, Naminé? Are you sure? Because I don't want to go up to some stranger again only to have him dismiss me as mentally unstable.

 

“N-no. Let's not talk to him,” Naminé said stiffly.

 

What's wrong?

 

“The Inhabiter...I don't know if I can trust him.”

 

Keilani stood there looking at the redhead, debating whether to prove Naminé wrong by talking to the boy, who didn't look particularly dangerous, or to just walk away.

 

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

“To kill you?!” Rebekah nearly shouted. She then flinched, hoping she hadn't made too much noise, and resumed in a quiet voice. “And so, this Mariah did indeed kill you, upon your request? Well, at least Sephiroth's gone. So why are you looking for that girl, anyway?”
