Twilight Town.....what a harmonic world. With no heartless running about this peaceful town, as well only nobodies staying in secluded places; this was an ideal vacation area. Not only was this town full of peace: It also had sights that other worlds could only dream of.
The first one being the twilight sky. Staying between dusk and night-fall, you could say that this sky 'never slept'. There was complete night fall on one side, to a point where you could see the bright stars above. On the other side: A perfectly setting sun that never disappeared. It was no wonder this town was called 'Twilight'.
Inside the Tram Crammon, a new 'visitor' had appeared, amazed with the sight. He had red eyes and red hair. He wore a normal white sweater with flames racing across around the clothing. His pants were simple black. Oddly, his name was the same as his hair and eyes: Red.
His eyes were set upon the orange yellow sky, dazzled with the sight of it. Red couldn't believe the sight: It was unique. He hadn't seen a sky that was so diverse since Traverse Town, with its star full sky. What's more, the building had bared a resemblance to Traverse Town. The buildings were large, yet most of them had a height that kept low enough to see the perfect sun-set.
Despite being the tourist around this town......Red just couldn't shake off this feeling of....familiarity. He had never seen such a world before yet.....He could name these streets and areas like it was written on the back of his hand. The first being the Tram Crammon, with it's vast, unique setting. It was the largest area of the town yet....there were very little people here. There were some people that Red passed by but most of them were heading towards....The sandlot was it? Yes, the sandlot area. Perhaps the town was holding some event over there? Either way, Red was far too busy looking around Twilight town to be 'amused' by the local's events.
Red continued to walk into the Woods area, which came to a surprise to Red. So far, Red had seen nothing but buildings; Why would they have a small forest area here? Red couldn't find any answer to that as he continued to walk into the dark woods.

As Red walked deeper into the woods....he soon realized how dark the place really was. He expected some sunlight to shine down in this area, but the thick branches and its abundance of leaves prevented that. The only light source that this woods had was the two exits. Thankfully, one exit was much larger than where he entered: It luminated most of the woods to a dim light.
Red still couldn't shake of that feeling that he had been here before. He had no memories of this place before...but the town had that eeiry feeling to him. Then again.....some time ago, Red lost to the darkness, and as a result, both a heartless and nobody was formed. He supposed that one of them stayed in this town, before a certain person brought them over to Hollow Bastion to 'revive' him. However...it was only a guess.
As he pondered about that thought, Red caught something in sight. He quickly shook off the old thought as it has been replaced by a questionable thought. Considering that little light was here, Red couldn't exactly tell what or who it was.....but from his guess, it appeared to be a person.
When he walked closer, he started to realize that it was indeed a person, much to his relief. The last thing that Red wanted to do was to fight any heartless or nobodies: That wasn't his reason for coming here. Although.....those creatures tend to interupt the most peaceful of plans. Red had stopped as he saw the person moved. He then heard her voice.
Red responded back to her,"Uhhh.....Hey there." Even though he was a bit....shaky to meet this preson in this area at first, Red quickly got over his fear. He shook his head slightly before he introduced himself. Red took a couple of steps closer as he said,"I'm Red. What's your name?"

Red confirmed Athena's introduction as he nodded his head. Then, he heard her apologize to him for scaring him. It wasn't that he was scared....well, he might of been...he was just startled to see her. He wasn't expecting anyone be in this forest, since he didn't really see anyone outside of the Tram Crammon. If that area wasn't crowded, Red thought that this area would be empty. Red shook his head as he said," That's alright. I was just a little startled that's all."
Red heard Athena ask him a question. In all honsetly....he didn't really know if he was new here. He hasn't pyhiscally been here before, but...strangely, he had memories of this place that weren't his. Perhaps it was his nobody or heartless memories that were transferred into his mind....either way, Red had to answer the question. Red nodded his head in disagreement as he said," No. This is my first time here."
He saw Atena give him a small smile, and he let out a smile back at her. Red wanted to show that he wasn't a threat to her in any way, much like what she was doing. He wasn't a threat really: After all, he was usually fast asleep in some random area of a world. Despite having all his pent-up energy....Red preferred to go to sleep.
Deciding to continue their small conversation, Red started to ask her some question. "So, are you new to this area too? Or have you been here before?" Seeing that he still couldn't see clearly, Red slightly stepped to the side, where the light was shining more from the exit that lead to the mansion area. Of course, Red didn't spot it: His attention was on Athena as he awaited his answer.

Red brought his head closer to Athena as she began to answer his question, since he didn't hear quite clearly. Ah, she has been here before. That was something that Red couldn't....well couldn't technincaly say. He wondered why Athena derailed her sentence that followed by a pause from her. Since she left him hanging with a pausing sentence, Red remained silent. He brought his head back as she explained to him that she was living in other word currently, but only came here to see how everything was doing. From the way she said it, Athena sounded like a visitor, like Red was. That was a small common thing that had now.
She started to say something else, only to pause again. He had a puzzled look on his face as he wondered why she had stopped. Then, she mentioned a place that he could stay in as she pointed behind him. Red naturally looked back to see what it was. With an amazed look on his face, he saw a mansion. It had a gate that was protecting it right now but....Red could easily get inside it.
He looked back at Athena as she explained that the castle was abandoned, but it was still decent enough to rest inside. 'Not a bad idea' Red thought to himself. He was considering sleeping in a hotel in this town but a mansion....well, you couldn't beat that, even if it was abandoned. Beside, Athena made it sound intereseting. He saw standing up, then walking up closer to her.
He was able to get a better picture of her now, although he only focused on the face. She had greenish eyes that Red didn't know of. Her hair was black that was cut to her shoulders. She told him it was his choice if he wanted to go into the mansion or not. Well....Red still wanted to see the rest of the town, but...since the mansion was right there, he might as well take a peak into it. Red nodded his head as he said with a smile, "Let's go inside to see how it is first. I still want to explore the rest of the town, though."

Red was relieved that Athena was patient enough to actually let him explore the rest of the town later. She even offered him a tour around the city. Red smiled at her as he said," That would be nice. Thank you." Thankfully, Red had all the time in the world to do just about anything he wanted to do: He had no problems or jobs to attend to right at this moment. That's probably the best thing about being an adventerour and treasure hunter: You line of work isn't really needed, nor do you need to listen to someone else's orders. Basically, Red was a free person to do whatever he wanted.
Red followed Athena as she signaled him to follow. The light became brighter and brighter as they closed in to the exit. As they exit through the forest, Red was amazed with what he saw. He thought that it looked big before, even when he at a distance. Now that he was much closer to it.....it looked more like a palace. His mouth slightly opened from the sight of the mansion.
He closed his jaw up as Athena talked to him about the mansion. Apparently, this mansion had belong to someone else, but was abandoned some time ago. Even Athena didn't know who it orginally belong to. Red continued to listen to her until she trailed off around the time she mentioned ghost stories, which only peaked Red's intereset.
Was the mansion haunted or something? If it was, then what was the story behind it? Red wanted to know more about it....However, Athena burst that myth as she told him that it was only heartless and that she got rid of them. In truth, Red was...disappointed. He was really hoping that it would be an actual ghost. Oh well....such thing didn't really exist, except for Halloween Town.
Red noticed that Athena had started to walk over to the gate, which he did as well. Oddly, she started climbing up the gate now. When Athena asked him if he could climb, he nodded his head and said," Yeah, I can make it..." Red hoped that he could make it: It's been so long since he had done actual work. He was usually resting in someplace peaceful. Started to climb up the gate as well, though he had a bit of a hard time at first. He was able to get the hang of it soon.

Red had struggled getting on top of the gate, but he finally made it. However, with one problem sloved, another arise for him: He wasn't exactly the best 'cordinated' person, and falling from this height...well, he wasn't sure what to do. Red didn't know if he should make a leap for it and hope that he won't break his bones at the process, or play it safe by climbing it down. Seeing that 'leaping' was the best choice to go down faster.....and after seeing Athena do it, he couldn't find any reason NOT to jump.
Red leaped from the top of the gate, and landed with a big thud. He almost hit the ground fact first, but he manage to catch himself before he did. Unfortunately.....he suffered a small case of injury. He manage to 'cramp' up his leg after leaping, so he was now in agonizing pain, although he tried his best not to show it. He flinched a little bit as he quickly stood up, and started to 'stiff' the cramped leg. After wasting small time doing the 'pain dance', Red was finally able to walk normal, with a small wince of pain on ever step. It didn't matter to him, though.
As he limped his way to Athena, he noticed that Athena was holding up her head; The way that people usually do when they have a head-ache. Feeling more concern for Athena than his cramped leg, Red slightly walked closer to Athena, asking her, "What's wrong?"
Then she mentioned 'stupid memories', which sort of confused Red. Remembering something like memories could bring you head-aches? Red had never heard of that before. Repeating his question of concern once again, Red asked, "Are you alright?"

Red was confused as to why Athena wasn't responding to him. She looked like she was in her own world. He repeated his question a couple of more times, although it was a failed attempt. He still didn't get a response from her.....well, actually he did, but it wasn't exactly the answer he was expecting. She was asking herself some questions, Red supposed. He was still silent as Athena kept on talking in her 'dream world'; That's what Red called it. She began to talk to herself again, although Red wasn't really paying attention to it at the moment.
He looked back at her, only to see Athena rub her eyes. Was she crying? It certainly looked like: After all, she was rubbing her eyes that gave the impression she was crying. It seem that she snapped back into reality, considering that she was apologizing to him about that little 'episode'. After she gave the reassurance comment after her apology, Red just shook his head. He said to her," You don't have to be sorry for something like that."
Oddly, the attention went from her to him. He guessed that Athena must of recognized his stiffed leg. Red let out an amusing laugh as he said," Yeah, I'm fine. I just have a massive leg cramp after that little 'leap'. It's nothing, really." Of course, he was lying, but he was not going to admit that he was so much pain because of a cramp: It was a 'guy' thing, you could say....Or arrogance.
Red tried his best to walk 'normally' while keeping a straight face. With each step, he could feel a wince of pain. 'This is torture...' Red thought to himself. Wanting to change the subject from him, Red said," Let's go into the mansion. I want to see how it looks like." Red smiled at her, to ensure that he was 'fine'.

(I'm REALLY sorry for not replying for so long)
Red listened to Athena as she talked to him. 6 months wasn't that long, if a person really thought about it. But if you add traveling, along with other events....well, it could feel like years of being on the 'road'. Red could relate to what Athena was saying; He has been gone from other worlds for quite a while, and when he came back...nothing had changed. Everything had stayed the same.
His leg had started to feel better as the pain slowly dwindle. He was about to walk 'properly'. As he stepped inside the mansion, his eyes widened a little. Not only because this area was big but......he felt like he had a strong connection to this place. It almost felt like he had been here for before....
Red glanced back at Athena when she asked him something. He nodded his head 'yes' to the question, still sort of shock with that 'connecting' feeling inside him. He had not been here for 5 minutes....yet he felt like he knew this place like it was his home. He was still looking at Athena when she began to explain what she use to do.
Apparently, she use to stay here while it was rainy, and stare at the window. And whenever people stared over to where she was staring, people thought it would be a ghost; which probably started the rumor of a ghost in the mansion. She then asked him if this place was good to rest. Red nodded his head as he said to her," Yeah, this place looks.....interseting, to stay in. I stay here, so long as we keep the gate open." Red laughed a little bit after that.
Then, Red said something else. He said, with a normal tone and a blank look on his face,"I'm guessing that you stayed in the white room, while it was rainy. Not surprised: I use to go into that room." Red looked at Athena, having no idea what he had just said.

Athena had asked him what he had just said, which came to a surprise to Red. He started to realize what he had said to her. He told her some information about the mansion, yet he claimed that he had not been here before; A very awkward moment for him. Red even mentioned about the white room in this place, which was considered to be a 'secret', much to Red's guess. Once again, Athena brought up the question of how he knew this place without even being here before.
Then again.....There was a time when he was part of the 'darkness', which resulted both his heartless and nobody to run around the worlds. Maybe one had traveled here before, and stayed in this mansion? The memories of his 'other lives' were blurry to him, although he remember a few of it, such as this mansion. Red shook his head as he said to her," I don't know anything else....But I'm telling the truth. I have never been here before." Red decided to take this small moment of silence to quickly change the subject. He started to ask her some pretty simple questions. The first one being," Where do we go, now that we agreed to stay in this mansion?" Red was really anxious to 'explore' this world, but he also wanted to put this little moment behind him.
(I wish I still had my Rey/ Namine thread, so I could show it to you.>.< Rey was Red's nobody, and he was Namine's boyfriend for a little bit.^_^ That explains why Red knows the mansion, as well the other parts of the town:P)

(you need to have 200 posts to audition for her, as well any other cannon character) Red decided to look around the town first. Seeing the mansion was great and all but....he mostly came here to explore the town. And beside: He was coming back here when he was going to rest. Red nodded his head as he said, "If you don't mind, I would like to look around the town." He smiled at her after he said that. Hopefully, he could forget this little situation when they 'detoured' around town. Red was already eagered to get to town as he started to walk back to the door entrance. Before he did that though, he said," I think we should get something to eat first." Red was feeling a bit hungry, now that Athena mentioned it. He wouldn't getting something to eat before they explored town; possibly eat it while they look around. Red opened the door, but he didn't go outside. Instead, he signaled for Athena to go out first as he said, with a smile on his face," After you." (mine is not so good either. )
