Broken

"Broken" is the eighteenth chapter of Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days.
== Synopsis ==
Roxas rushes to Xion's side, but Saïx orders the Dusks to take her to her room. Roxas attempts to follow, but Saïx tells him that there's nothing he can do and that Xion is broken and defective. He follows the Dusks anyway and is joined by Axel, who asks about Xion's condition. Roxas says Xion will be fine but is angry over how Saïx treats her, wondering if he hates her. Axel laughs and reminds Roxas that as Nobodies, there's no such thing as "like" or "hate" as they can't feel emotions. He asks why Saïx acts the way he does and Axel explains that was how he acted before he became a Nobody and they base their actions on their human memories. He simplifies the explanation by simply calling Saïx a jerk when the Nobody enters.
Saïx tells Roxas to go on his mission as there's more work now that Xion is unconscious. Roxas gets angry, but Axel reminds him that Luxord is waiting for him in the Grey Area and he rushes off. Axel apologizes to Saïx and explains that Roxas was wondering why he was so mean to Xion. Though Saïx remarks that his question was stupid, Axel notes that every member has botched a mission, but he has always been harsh to Xion. He realizes that Saïx is hiding something and pins him up against the wall, demanding to know.
On his way to the lobby, Roxas realizes he didn't leave his apology note for Xion and decides to give it to her when she wakes up.
