The struggle, the strife...Life&#039;s angry,hurtful side...None of that matters...As long as I have you.-Ororon<br /> <br /> Got it memorized?-Axel<br /> <br /> Bet you don&#039;t know why the sun sets red. You see, light is made up of lots of colors. And out of all those colors, red is the only one that travels the farthest.-Axel<br /> <br /> Oh shit Romeo is dead, thats a shame!-Axel<br /> <br /> Dance Water Dance!-Demyx<br /> <br /> Nice to see you too, Vexen. You know, it&rsquo;s deplorable&hellip; The Organization used to be the rope that binds us. And now it&rsquo;s full of kinks.-Zexion<br /> <br /> Then I shall make you see...That your hopes are nothing. Nothing but a mere illusion!-Zexion<br /> <br /> The world of darkness and Ansem&#039;s shadow still nest within your heart. Do you plan to face Sora like that? Even after what you did to him? Are you not ashamed?-Zexion<br /> <br /> Surely you must&#039;ve known that this was going to happen.-Zexion<br /> <br /> He...was the only one I liked...he made me feel...like I had a heart. It&#039;s kinda...funny. You make me feel...the same....-Axel<br /> <br /> But don&#039;t waste your time. We Nobodies can never hope to be Somebodies.-Axel<br /> <br /> You really do remember me this time? I&#039;m SO FLATTERED. But you&#039;re too late!!-Axel<br /> <br /> Think I&#039;ll pass. My heart just wouldn&#039;t be in it, you know? Haven&#039;t got one.-Axel<br /> <br /> We have to set things right. There is simply too much on the line... Lea.-Sa&iuml;x<br /> <br /> As lightless oblivion devours you, drown in the ever-blooming darkness!-Marluxia<br /> <br /> Along the road ahead lies something you need. However, in order to claim it you must lose something that is dear to you.-Marluxia<br /> <br /> Imbeciles... You would knowingly shackle your heart with a chain of memories born of lies? You would be one who has a heart yet cast aside your heart&#039;s freedom? You turn from the truth because your heart is weak! You will never defeat me!-Marluxia<br /> <br /> Oh, we do too have hearts! Don&#039;t be mad...-Demyx<br /> <br /> &quot;Surely...you must have known this was going to happen.&quot; &quot; Why would I know?&quot; &quot;Because, in your memory, you&#039;ve been to a number of worlds before this one. And a course, in those worlds, the only beings you met were the dark kind. That&#039;s all that&#039;s left in your heart:the darkest of memories. Your memories of home are gone --- every one.&quot; &quot;That&#039;s a lie! I remember everything from the islands! They&#039;re my...my closest friends...&quot; &quot;And who throw away those friends? Maybe it&#039;s your own actions you&#039;ve forgotten. It was you who destroyed your home!&quot; -Zexion + Xion/Riku/Sora
