Leiko opened her eyes as she stared at... a brick wall? Confused, she turned around, and could see she came to this world facing the back of a dead-end alley. She then thought to herself,"Okay, I can't sense any nobodies yet... or heartless... maybe I've actually found a quiet peaceful town?".
She began to walk out of the alley and could see this place was completly deserted. She then said,"Okay, maybe too peaceful...". She continued to walk through stairways and alleyways until she reached what looked like the town's plaza.
She could see a small cafe with a few people inside enjoyign their order. She decided to sit down and relax for a bit. When a waitress came up to her, she said,"Um, tea, please." and continued to sit quietly.

As Leiko continued to sit there quietly, she could sense somebody coming towards her. She quickly took out her black cloth mask and tied it around her head so it would cover the area around her eyes, and her markings. The last thing she wanted was for people to think she was part of that damned organization.
Suddenly, a boy wearing a black formal suit and a red tie came to her and said,"Well hey there. New to town I suppose? What's your name?". She couldn't snese anything about this stranger that was even remotley threatening, so she decided it would be okay to stay and talk.
"Hi. Um, yea, I'm Leiko Kondo. I kinda just wandered in by mistake is all". She smiled as the waitress gave her the tea. She took a sip and said to the stranger,"And what's your name? You look a little overdressed for a cafe. Did you just come from some kinda formal event?".
As Leiko sat there and drank her tea, she looked around the place to see if there was any strange activity around. The only thing she remotley noticed was that a few tables had been knocked over. She extended her hand out to gesture the empty chair in fron of her and said,"You can sit if you want".

"A refuge town?" Leiko said aloud as she gazed upon her surroundings again. It was hard to believe fights could occur here because of the calming atmosphere. Though, she had to admit, the sky seemed to be filled with a bit too much darkness for the afternoon time. She heard Jazz say,"So, where did you come from Leiko?".
She knew he hadn't yet realized she was a nobody, and not wanting to make any enemies too quickly, she faked a smile and said,"Um, a typical far off world. Typically peaceful, ocaisional heartless, thats about it, really". Just then, Leiko felt a sudden sensation down her spine. She looked back at Jazz and said,"Hey, did you just hear that?". Suddenly, out of the corner of her eye, a group of 10 heartless appeared out of nowhere.
Leiko put down her tea and stood up and pointed over to her left and said,"Look over there, heartless!". She then took out both her Kris daggers and took a battle stance. She looked back at Jazz and said,"I'll take half. I hope you can fight well in that suit!".

Leiko ran quickly towards the heartless, slicing two of them already, one with each dagger. She then quickly tapped into Jazz's mind and calle dout to him,"Hey! Just because I'm a girl doesn't mean I can't handle myself! Watch THIS!".
Leiko then called upon the fire, earth and water elements, and sent a blast of each energy headed for a heartless, destroying them. She then took a quick sigh of relief and went to wipe the sweat off her brow, and noticed soemthing funny. She then realized when she sliced the first two heartless, she had knocked her black mask off of her face.
She froze in fear for a second, realizing the XI mark next to her right eye and the II mark next to her left eye had been revealed while she was talking to Jazz. She spun around frantically and saw her mask lying on the ground. She quickly squatted down to pick it up and seurley tied it around her head again. In her mind she thought,"Please tell me he didn't see the marks, please tell me he didn't see them...".

Since Jazz hadn't brought up the markings on her face, she was half sure he didn't notice. Without thinking she tapped into his mind, and in despair, she thought,"Damnit, he did see... well, maybe he'll forget...? Heh, I doubt it...". But she heard him as he said,"Hey, lets get back to our tea, okay?". Leiko nodded and walked back towards her seat.
As she continued to sip at her tea, she thought about her markings. Marks she was forced to bear after fleeding from the organization 2 years ago. But she didn't let it show that it was bothering her.
She looked to Jazz and said,"Well, that was easy enough. Heh, and you thought I was weak because I'm a girl...". Before going any further, she quickly said,"Oh, if you're wondering how I knew you thought that, I'm a telepath. I can read minds of my choosing, but I only use it as a last resort or by accident, so don't worry". She took another sip of her tea.

Leiko decided to play his little game. She said,"Okay, I'll play your little game!". She then heard him think,"The waitress over there, can you find out if she likes me?". She then heard his mind chuckle and she laughed a bit herself. She then couldn't help but notice Jazz was gazing heavily at her face.
For a split second, she heard,"what could XIII mean...". She completly froze up, feeling like she would be scared out of her own mind in this situation. Struggling to make sure he didn't notice this, she said,"Um, the waitress there, um... lemme see...". She then read the waitress' mind as she heard,"Ha ha... wonder if that guy's ever going to notice he has a brown mustash from the tea...".
Leiko looked at him and noticed this was actually true. She laughed to herself, but then quickly answered,"Um, I couldn't really tell, actually...".

Leiko was absolutley frozen still as she continued to read his mind as he thought,"Organization 13, any significance? ... I suppose not, 13 years... 13 days???". Leiko didn't know how he knew of the organization.
She quietly whispered, mostly to herself and not to him,"How do you know of the organization...". She then realized how ugly this could get. She knew she had to leave... now.
She abrubtly stood up and bowed as she said,"Thanks for accompanying me to tea and with fighting those heartless, but something's come up, I have to go." Within that monent she dissapeared. Just as quickly, she reappeared on a rooftop within view of Jazz at the cafe.
She then said quietly to herself,"I don't want to leave... but I'd rather flee than be found out". She then began running in the opposite direction, leaping from rooftop to rooftop.

A sharp pain went up Leiko's spine, causing her to stop rinning and drop to her knees. She then said aloud,"Damnit, nobodies... I bet Jazz is getting ganged up on by now... guess I have to go help him...". She then ran in the direction she sensed him, and noticed her fear was true, seeing the three nobodies.
Leiko then took out her daggers, and called upon both fire and water elements. She charged each blade with one element, and quickly whipped them towards the heartless. Two of them were hit and destroyed, turning into a black puff of smoke, which then dissapeared.
The blades acted like boomarangs and came back, and she caught them. She then called upon the earth element and charged both blades with earth energy. She jumped overhead of the heartless and swumg directly down at it, destroying it. She then put her daggers away and said,"Hi again. Um, about why I ran off back there...".

Leiko laughed a bit at Jazz's ignorance, knowing it to be the correct responce since it felt so refreshing a reply. She then said,"Well, thats what's called a nobody. When someone's turned into a heartless, a nobody is created too. And I've been fighting them for so long now, it's become almost second hand to me... nobodies, heartless, the orgaization, which I know you're familiar with, so don't play dumb on that subject".
She knew she couldn't bring herself to talk of the relationship between the organization and herself, not that she would ever be apart of it, hense the acursid marks. But she figured it would come up sooner or later, and prepared herself for it, just in case.

(Okay, np, see ya 2marrow ) Leiko listened as Jazz spoke of how he'd never left this world by himself. She also heard as he asked her,"What's it like out there? In the other worlds?". Leiko then had a strange feeling come over her, that somewhat resembled... deja-vu. She felt as if she had been asked this question before, but quickly put it away from mind. As he was still kneeling, she sat down next to him, looking up at the sky as she answered. "Well, it honestly depends on what world you go to about the experiance you're gonna have. In the many worlds I've traveled to, I've made companions, both locals and other travelers like myself, I've seen rare sights, fought in miraculous battles, faced the greatest enemies... my biggest so far being a member of Organization XIII itself. The organization is made up of thirteen nobodies, looking to steal other peoples hearts and steal treasures of certain worlds, and by any means necessary". Leiko then looked down at her feet and said,"Though, I can't say all nobodies are bad... couldn't if I tried...". She then decided it was time to come clean, being sure Jazz wouldn't overly judge her. She continued to look down, somewhat hiding her face, as she said,"The truth is, I'm a nobody too... a living being with no heart or emotions of my own...".

Leiko heard as Jazz asked her,"Then did you die?". She replied by saing,"If you mean the girl who I was created from, no, she didn`t die. She was good willed enough, even at the age of 5, that she recovered her heart".
She then heard him speak of how he`d like to leave for another world tomorrow, and lastly saying,"I want to see it all, you should come. You know, just in case I can`t handle myself and I need a girl to protect me". He then stuck his tongue out at ehr as he stood up. Leiko laughed and said,"You know, you probably do need a girl to protect you, cause honestly, you`re hopeless". She stopped to laugh, guessing it to be appropriate to the moment and she looked back at him and said,"I`m only kidding, you`re alright. But I`ll come with you tomorrow"'.
Leiko then felt a sensation creep up her spine, and then looked down below from the edge of the roof. Her eyes widened as she could see a large sworm of both heartless and nobodies waiting the both of them out. She looked back to Jazz and said,"On second thought, it doesn`t look like you`ll have enough time to sleep tonight", and she gestered him over to the edge.

As Jazz jumped down into the swarm, she said,"Yea, no problem!", but he leaped down too fast to reply to her. She then first called upon the fire element and wielded her daggers. She faced the blades downward as she jumped, her feet filling with the fire energy, and once she hit the ground, the blast knocked out a few of the nobodies.
She then called upon the metal element and increased the size of her blades, and she also charged them with the leftover fire energy. As she was fighting the nobodies, killing most of them in only a few swings, she heard Jazz say,"So I was thinking Leiko, I have heard about this place, this olympus colleseum, have you heard of it?".
After slashing one of the nobodies to pieces, she replied,"Yea, I`ve heard of it. Haven`t been there yet, though. Okay, thats where you wanted to visit first?" Seeing the last of the nobodies swarming her, she then said to herself,"Okay, time for one last shot". She looked over to Jazz and said,"Hope you have a way to shield yourself, this attack ranges in size usually!".
She then called upon her light element, and after putting her daggers away, she put her palms together. While also letting out a battlecry, she released her palms, and a blinding amount of light energy ran all around her, going farther and farther, killing all the nobodies and a few of the leftover heartless.

With the attack ending, Leiko looked over to make Jazz was okay. His sword had created a strong-willed shield to protect him. She then said to him,"Smart thinking". She then looked around again and continued,"Heh, guess that went by quicker than I figured it would before".
She then remembered quickly tapping into Jazz's mind before the swarm of heartless and nobodies came before. She then said,"I take it you had someone dear to you that was attacked by a heartless and didn`t find their heart? Sorry if I'm prying, I was just curious".
She looked at the sky for a brief moment. She knew she didn't have any real family, she rarley could remember her childhood. But she then tried to look back, and she thought about all the friends she had made in other worlds, and thought about how she would feel if one of them had their heart stolen. Afterwards, she snickered at the irony of thinking about how she would,'feel'.

(Okay, that'll work ) Leiko was confused at Jazz's first words, but didn`t want to cause him pain by questioning him on it. She heard as he said,"Meet me at the cafe tomorrow, I need to pack and prepare fot this, it seems it's going to be an adventure"'. She then bowed to him in goodbye and watched him walk off in the opposite direction. She decided instead of running around, wasting energy, she'd walk. She gazed up at the night's sky again, seeing that there were some stars hanging up in the sky. As she walked, she extended her hand up towards the sky, pretending to grasp the stars in her hands. She quietly said to herself,"Heh, you know, other worlds don't look so far from your grasp when you look at them like this...man, why is this all so familiar?". Finally looking down, she noticed she was standing in front of the outdoor cafe again. She sat down at the same table, tapping her fingers down on the surface. SHe then looked over at the same waitress again, and said,"Um,c an I have another tea, please? I'll be here for quite awhile...".

(lol, okay, deal ) Leiko looked up after hearing voices, her head resting on the table. She then said quietly,"Oh, must've fallen asleep after that 5th tea...". She then stood up, standing a bit wobbely. She then looked at Jazz and said,"Oh, g'morning. Guess that tea really put me out". She then looked over towards the gate, which she guessed lead to other worlds. She looked at Jazz and said,"No offense to this world's official door to space or anything, but I don't exactly have a ship to fly through space with, and I'd rather not use the power it takes to fly, either, so...". She then closed her eyes, and put her hands in front of her, palms facing otuward. A large blast of illuminating red energy came out of her palms, and created a red-coloured portal, which hovered in the air. She then looked over at Jazz and said,"Oh, about your question earlier. Yesterday, you wanted to ask me why I'm diffrent than those other nobodies you saw. Those are minions controled by the organization, much like the heartless. I can still remember my emotions back when I had a heart. That's why I`m different". She then began to walk towards her portal and said," I know we're headed to the collosium first, but once that adventure comes to a close, and I can`t accompany you to your next world, I need a favor... if you ever run into a girl named Yukiko Chin, tell her I said hi, okay?". Leiko then bowed to Jazz and said,"Well, see ya on the other side ". She then closed her eyes and walked into the portal.
