Demyx was silent during the explanation, ears slowly flattening and eyes filling with water as DiZ continued on. This...this was -not- what he wanted to hear Not at all. He had thought the road to Kingdom Hearts would be hard. He expected that.
But...not this. Nothing could have prepared him for something like this. If he had been sure he had a heart, this would surely be a time he'd be heartbroken.
"In short...if we went after it, it'd cause more bad than good..."
The young one whined, the news rather devastating. This was almost as bad as when Saix told him he had died before...-almost-.
"And...just how do you know my name?"
It had finally sunk in that this Audio kept referring to him by name, yet he had never spoken his name, nor did he know the name of the other. Odd.

"Let's just say... I'm not from this world either... I've known the darkness for far too long and have done my own 'research' into finding the answers to everything."
He then looked down from the sky and over to Demyx. Trying to cheer him up a little bit at the least he gave him a small nuzzle on the cheek before speaking again.
"You don't need to find Kindom Hearts Demyx in order to get your heart back. For as I said no one ever truly looses their heart... for whatever reason your heart is enveloped in darkness, but even in the darkest of hearts there lies light. Its just a matter of you being able to find it again Demyx, this I can promise you..."

Demyx allowed the nuzzle, too upset to push it away anyway. Why? Just what had they done that was -so bad- that they were forced to deal with this? As frightening as they could be at times, none of the members seemed really...evil to him. Why did they have to suffer while much worse people didn't?
"I never did anything bad to anyone...not that I can remember..this just isn't fair!"
Wiping the water from his eyes, Demyx struggled to calm down. It wouldn't do any good to freak out afterall.

DiZ seemed to fidget slightly not really certain what else to say, sure he knew what were in the reports, after all he had written them at one point. Even he wasn't sure how they would lead to kingdom hearts though.
He signed again and whispered, "I don't know why..."
His ears flattened and his tail sank to the ground sitting still and his eyes seemed to go a bit dull, tiresome even.
"I honestly don't know..."

Right. As much as he wanted to, yelling at this other Audio would do him no good. Forcing himself to calm down, for now at least, Demyx leaned over and gave him a quick hug. The other seemed upset, maybe showing that he wasn't mad at him would somehow help? It wasn't this one's fault he was like this afterall, at least Demyx didn't think it was.
"I'm...sorry."
Sorry for yelling? Sorry for bothering him? Or simply sorry for existing? Demyx had no idea, but the words still tumbled forth during the gesture.

DiZ gave a genuine small smile for once after returning the hug.
"It's ok kid... just a bit tired is all..."
It was true he was tired, but it wasn't one of those tired that you merely could take a nap and feel better from. No, this was a tired that seeped down to his very core but he would keep on moving, just like he always did.
"I just there was more of a help I could be to you thats all..."
He meant it with all honesty. The kid seemed sweet and shouldn't have to bare the weight on his shoulders like he did, but there truly was nothing else he knew. Even that in his reports as far as he could possibly recall he told the kid. He just hoped that for his sake that he might find the light again.

"Maybe you should get some rest?"
Demyx didn't understand just what he meant by tired, but in his own way he was trying to help.
"It's not good to be exhausted...it's harder to get anything done that way. Maybe you'll feel better after you rest? And...thanks for helping me, even if you don't think you did enough...you did something. That's what counts."
As frustrated as that 'something' made him, he couldn't blame DiZ for telling him what he knew. He had asked afterall.
Releasing the other, Demyx slowly drew back. He was fidgeting again, and honestly wanted to flee back to the relative safety of the castle. But...he didn't know if it was a good idea to run off just yet, so he nervously waited around.

"Yea maybe your right..."
DiZ said with a chuckle and rubbed the back of his head. He then stood up off the ground and brushed off his robes of any loose dirt that had gotten onto them.
"Well I'm sure I will see you around again sometime soon kid..."
With a smile and a nod he then started to walk back towards the docks that would have the ferry to the islands so he could go home. Maybe he really did just need some rest.
As he walked away he was completely oblivious to the fact that a piece of paper fell out of his robes and floated to the ground by Demyx, and kept on walking out of sight.
*paper* Ansem Report...

"Bye!"
Demyx lifted a paw, waving at the retreating figure. It was a relief he left first, now Demyx wouldn't have to worry about when would be a good time to excuse himself. He was also quite sure he'd eventually run into the other Audio, so no worries about a missed opportunity thered. Still, he couldn't help but wonder just -who- that had been.
As the paper fluttered to the ground, Demyx eyed it curiously. Just..what was that? Snagging it, the sitarist's eyes widened as he realized just what it was. That...that Audio actually -HAD- one of these?! Demyx looked up to call back the other one, but it was too late. The bandaged Audio was gone, and he'd have to wait til later to ask him more questions. For now...he'd have to report back to Saix. Opening a portal, Demyx quickly moved himself back to the castle.
