Summary: Rinoa comes back from the dead so she can hava another chance to see Axel again. But, what isn't, is not...or will it be?

It wasn't Real

Alive

Rinoa's POV

I stood in the void of nothingness. The only thing keeping me company was my memories of him, Axel. What's worse was that I was forgetting him.

Flashback:

"Rinoa!"

I turned to see Axel!

"Axel!" I shouted

I ran to Axel with his open arms. Tears raced down my eyes, it was tears of joy.

"Axel…"

"You got a minute left Axel!" Nami shouted from the sky. Axel seemed to know what she meant.

Then he turned to face me "Rinoa…I love you."

Those three words ringed through my head for an extra second. I was so happy.

"…I love you too, Axel. And only you." I said enforcing the 'only' word.

We both embraced each other for what felt like an eternity. But the minute we did, little sprites burst out of me.

"Axel, please, never forget me. EVER. Promise?" I asked

"I promise." He said holding up his pinky finger.

"Gigglegood." Then I hooked my pinky finger to his.

Then BLANK.

My heart was torn apart, now there's barely anything left of it.

"I miss Axel." I said to no one particular.

"I take it you want to see him, right?"

I spun my head around to see who it was.

"How long has it been?" I asked

"2 centuries..." The man replied

"Whoa! Now that's a record breaker!" I replied.

"So, why'd you come?" I asked becoming serious again

"Figured, if you want to see him one last time, I guess, now's a good time." He replied calmly, as usual.

"DiZ, does he have anything left of me?" I asked seriously.

"I doubt it. If he has nothing of him, you'd be ashes." He explained.

"What?! What happened?!" I shouted scared now.

"….."

"DiZ, tell me NOW!"

"Sora came and Axel protected him."

I closed my eyes to stop the tears from bursting out of me.

I was silent for a long time. "So, why'd you come?"

"Nami found out a way to bring you back, I would've come sooner, but I needed to develop a transporter for you and me."

"But…..what's the use of being brought back to life, when the one you gave your life for isn't there?"

"Ah ha, but since he died a 100 years ago, he's probably here by now, so will you join him among the living?"

"Yes! Yes I will!" I shouted hugging him, and nearly killing him in the process

"Ok, ok. Let's go. I don't like this place one bit, it's not a suitable place for my niece to stay in."
