Chapter 2: Intruders

Synopsis
Roxas finds himself surrounded by a white thief and its friends, and is unable to fend them off himself. Roxas decides to retreat, but the thieves won't let him, even grabbing onto him by the legs, before joining themselves together to create a cage to trap the teenager. Then, a portal opens, and the thieves slowly head towards it. Suddenly, the struggle bat changes into a different weapon, one that will actually allow Roxas to attack the thieves.

Roxas defeats the thieves and manages to retrieve the stolen photos. But the mysterious weapon disappears from his own hand. He takes the photos back to his friends, and they put their most cherished one (the quartet at the beach) back into it's frame. It turns out that the thieves have been stealing photos of Roxas from everywhere in town. Of course, Roxas could not explain much of the thieves, only that they were non-human.

Soon, the bell rings. It was getting late. Olette demands that everyone work on their homework assignment the next day, which the boys reluctantly agree with. As the leave the Usual Spot, Roxas complains of the sunlight and then faints.

"It's almost time!", says one of the men keeping an eye on the computer. The white thieves, who seem to be working for a group called Organization XIII, have been growing desperate, but the man says he will not let them win. The man, DiZ, then spots a "redhead", and orders his "apprentice" to keep an eye on Roxas.

We then cut to the redhead, Axel, who's using several white creatures, including one of a different shape, and is annoyed that they are only brining pictures of Roxas. He then burns the image of Roxas on a school bus, and wonders where he is hiding. We soon see the apprentice approach an unconscious Roxas, and says only one word: "Sora".

This triggers another dream; this time, the mysterious boy encounters a robbed man, and gains the ability to use a Keyblade. Roxas wakes up, back in his own bedroom. He looks into his hand, and wonders if the strange weapon he held yesterday was a Keyblade...
