A Tribute to Axel

Number Eight is his protocol

The Flurry of Dancing Flames

An extreme master of sarcasm, if you will

A sneak if there ever was.

He held a pair of chakram by his side

As powerful weapons

He always walked with a powerful stride

With hair on fire, dangerously spiked

Eyes of sea, sparkling endlessly with spite

Lean body dressed in pitch black, gliding smoothly

Silently across the ground.

His true side we'll never know to the fullest

Was he honestly loyal to the Organization

Or was he a turncoat?

Many things he was told to do

Things to participate

Kill his best friend (unless he returned)

And kidnap a confused princess

Even when she tried to fight back.

The boy wanted to change all this

Alter his maniacal ways

He decided to help the Keyblade master

Despite he would give up his position

To inform him what he was up against

He told the Wielder of the leader, which he would soon battle

"Got it memorized?" he asked.

And vanished until the place of Betwixt and Between

Saved the three of them, he did, from his old allies, now enemies

Gave up his entire being and destroyed them all, then faded away

Slowly, into nothingness, with a tear in his eye and a smirk on his face.
