"And if he isn't? I still won't let you hurt him. Him or anyone else here," she said firmly, her voice sounding angrier than she was because the highest part of the terror was gone and she was, oddly enough, afraid of losing the fear. Because what if she needed to protect them, if he did attack Axel and she wasn't ready?

Yet at the same time... If he didn't actually attack anyone. If he was like Demyx, just there... could she go back to what she had gotten used to herE? Being less afraid all the time? Or would she have to constantly be ready, like she had been back at the Castle, always sure than anyone other than Axel or Roxas could be under orders to turn her into a dusk? She would know what to expect with some members of the Organization. It was hard to be scared of Demyx here, even for her, because he wouldn't do anything unless he was ordered to, and sometimes not even then. But where was this one's standing in the Organization? Could he order Demyx to go after her or Axel? She wasn't sure, but... this fear was different than the fear when she first saw him. This was the longer fear, the fear that stayed with her, that she hadn't even realized wasn't with her constantly anymore until now, until it was back.
