It was all an accident.
Now that that's all figured out, you might be wondering, what, exactly, is an accident. Well, it all began with Sora. Young, now 17-Year-old, innocent, kind, lovable Sora. The boy who saved the word, twice, and was the Keyblade Master. He was also the one who found out he was in love with his best friend. You know, Riku? The silver-haired guy that acted like an Emo at times and you wanted to shoot for being so annoying when he was jealous but you forgave when Sora grabbed his ass at the end of the second game?
Yeah.
That best friend.
And it seemed that after also two years of Darkness set Riku straight (irony) and guided him to falling in love with Sora as well. So, after the whole 'saving the worlds' thing had worn off and they were relaxing at home, they confessed their undying love and then proceeded to do what every fangirl wants to see.
We won't go into that.
So now, it wasn't a surprise when Kairi, their now-best-friend since their old ones were now their lovers, walked up to them on the beach and found them kissing. It didn't bother her at all. Actually she knew it would end up like this when she first gave Sora her Lucky Charm at Traverse Town.
"Hey, pull your tongues into your own mouths for a second. Sora, you got a letter from Leon." she said.
Sora pouted, taking the bottle from her that the letter was in. It had the King's seal on it as well. That was weird. He sighed, hoping that it wasn't another journey. As selfish as he seemed to him, now that he had Destiny Islands, Riku and Kairi, he saw no need for him to go out and rescue the worlds...again.
"That's weird..." Sora mumbled. "He wants me to stop by the Disney Castle."
"What for? Does it say?" Riku asked.
Sora frowned. "No. That's weird...I wonder what he wants."
"When are you suppose to go?" Kairi asked, leaning forward to read it.
"Um..." Sora looked it over again. "As soon as I get this...I have to go through the door in the Secret Cave."
Riku glared slightly at the paper, as if it had offended him. "You better go then. The sooner you leave, the sooner you come back."
Sora smiled. "Alright. This won't take long!"
He ran towards the Secret Cave, almost pausing, wondering how Kairi had gotten the letter. He finally decided it wasn't important before ducking down and entering the small cave. It pained him that every year, it was harder to get into their secret place. Riku couldn't even fit anymore, since he was so tall. It didn't seem fair to Sora, really. He didn't want to grow up. Maybe he and Riku and Kairi should run away to Neverland...
The door opened, making him jump slightly. Flinching slightly at the light pouring through the doorway, Sora walked through. He smiled once he reached the other side, immediately recognizing the familiar hedges of Disney Castle. Even after only one visit, he had come to like this place. Really, it was nice and peaceful-
"Sora!"
"Hiya, Sora!"
Sora laughed as Chip and Dale ran in circles around him. "Hi Chip, Dale. Hey, do you know where the King is?"
Dale nodded. "Yeah! He's in the thrown room."
"Leon just left." Chip added.
Sora smiled. "Alright, thanks. I'll see you guys later then."
He waved before continuing on. He quickly reached the Thrown Room, knocking once before entering. He noticed King Mickey first, smiling as he ran over. The mouse smiled back, giving a small wave.
"Hello, Sora."
"Hello, you Majesty. What is it that you wanted to see me about?" Sora asked.
The mouse sighed. "Well, I'm in a bit of a pickle." (AN::snort::) "You see, Leon just stopped by and he told me about something. You see, I need your help. But don't worry," he quickly added when he saw Sora's face fall. "you don't have to leave your islands for it! It just...needs to live with you."
Sora titled his head in confusion. "What is it, your Majesty?"
King Mickey sighed and led him to a door by his thrown, opening it and both stepping inside. Sora frowned, confused, as he walked in...
And froze.
"Donald, look!"
"Stop it and play with me!"
A young boy with bright red hair and green eyes was pulling on Donald's tail feathers before another boy, younger with blond hair and blue eyes, pulled his attention away. They then began chasing each other, giggling and laughing. Goofy watched from the corner, laughing while Donald quacked indignantly.
"Is that..."
"Axel and Roxas, reborn." Mickey nodded, finishing his sentence. "Leon found them separate in Radiant Garden. Roxas was in an Orphanage and Axel was found in the remains of the Castle, nearly starved. He didn't know what he should do with them, so he asked me to look after them...But this place isn't for children, especially Nobody children. Sooner or later the Castle will reject their dark energy. I think they have hearts now but their aura's are still darker than most people."
Sora watched as Axel hugged Roxas from behind, smiling. "They deserved another chance..."
The King sighed. "They were abused, Sora."
The smile immediately slipped from his face. "What?"
"Both have the marks. It seems that neither lost their powers since they were reborn. Axel can still control fire and Roxas controls light. The damage has been done. Leon wouldn't say what he thought would happen, but Axel flinches from body contact and he's horribly self conscience and Roxas doesn't trust you easily and he has had relapses." Mickey sighed. "If you agree to take them, Sora, you need to know this. It's...it's not right, but...I think they might have been...sexually abused. Both of them."
Sora could only watch as they laughed and played. Now that the King had told him, Axel did have a small cringe every time Roxas touched him, and Roxas refused to go by Donald and Goofy. He also got upset whenever Axel talked to them, wanting all of the red head's attention. It was horrible. They wanted a better life together, with hearts...And all they got was even worse.
"I'll do it." Sora whispered. "I wouldn't feel right leaving them here like this."
Mickey gave a smile. "If anyone can help them, it's you, Sora. I appreciate you doing this. Just keep all this in mind when you bring them home. Axel tends to light things on fire unconscionably when he's upset and Roxas isn't very forgiving. He's only close to Axel."
Sora nodded before walking towards them. He was only a few feet away when they finally noticed him. Roxas's innocent blue eyes widened and he hid behind Axel, who was the older one of the two. Axel looked him over warily, grabbing Roxas's hand.
"Hi." Sora greeted, smiling. "My name's Sora."
Axel frowned, not speaking. Sora laughed at this. He wondered briefly if the red headed pyro had always been this stubborn in his last life.
"What's your names?" he asked, kneeling so he was closer to their height.
"Axel..." the red head said shyly. "And Roxas."
Sora smiled gently. "You're from Radiant Garden, right?" Both nodded. "I bet it's cold there. Do you like it cold or it is better when it's warmer?"
Axel gave a small, broken smile. "Warm."
"What about you, Roxas?" the brunette implored, smiling at Axel's obvious answer.
Roxas hid his face into Axel's back. "W-warm..."
"Really?" Sora pulled out a charm Kairi had given him a few months after they had returned; it was a yellow paopu fruit. "See this? This a Paopu fruit. Where I come from, it's always warm and these grow everywhere."
Axel perked up at the word 'warm' while Roxas watched the charm swing back and forth. He seemed enraptured by it, a shy smile breaking out. Axel seemed to noticed because he stepped forward, away from him, and held his hand out for the charm from Sora.
Sora blinked. The red haired boy blushed a little, not meeting his eyes. Sora smiled at this and handed him the charm. He was sure Kairi would understand. It was worth it as Axel then gave it to Roxas, making the little blond hug him.
"You like that, huh?" Sora asked, laughing when they both nodded. "If you want, I can bring you to my island. Then you can always see them."
Axel frowned. "Will we...be staying with you?"
"Yeah, if you want. It's me and my two friends." Sora answered.
Roxas looked down at his new charm. "But..."
"What's wrong, Roxas? Don't you like me?" The old guilt trip; he wondered if it'd work on a little boy.
Roxas blushed. "I-I do, but-"
"More than me??" Axel demanded, pouting.
The blond giggled. "No."
Sora laughed as Axel gave him a hug at this, even as he flinched. Getting up on his feet, he held out his hand to them.
"If you come home with me, I promise nothing more will happen to you, okay?"
Axel frowned. "Am I...am I still a bad boy? Daddy said I was a bad boy and that's why he left."
Sora's smile turned sad. "No, Axel. You and Roxas are good boys. Okay?"
Axel smiled at his and took Roxas's hand before his other grabbed Sora's. Sora turned to Mickey, nodding. They were ready to go home.

Riku sat at the home that he and Sora shared. It was on the island, into the woods a little ways past the Secret Cave. There was a walkway that he, Sora and Kairi had all made that led to it as well. It was a fully electric-filled house with plumbing even for where they were. There were four rooms, two of which that never got used. Sora and Riku shared one, and the second was technically Kairi's, since she was over so much. But the other two were so far just guest rooms.
He had been watching TV when he heard someone walked up the pathway. He knew it was Sora. Kairi had already gone home earlier that day and she never came back unless she had to. However, Sora seemed to be talking to himself. Frowning, Riku got up and walked over to the door, opening it before Sora's hand even came in contact with the door knob.
"Uh, hiya Riku!" Sora greeted, smiling uneasily.
Riku stared. A pair of green and blue eyes stared right back, though the boy-that-couldn't-be-Roxas frowned and his his face into Sora's chest before latching on to the boy-that-couldn't-be-Axel's wrist. For the first time, Sora failed at words, holding two very much YOUNGER Nobodies in his arms, one with red hair and the other blond. He could only smile sheepishly at the look his boyfriend gave him.
