Story one:


"Hey Axel!! Where are you Axel?!" Roxas called out as he searched through the old mansion of Twilight Town. "Axel? I know you're here!" The young boy's voice echoed up the stairs as he explored further into the only sanctuary the two knew of.


~The castle had became the twos hideout after they both regained full strength of their bodies. Roxas spirit, which had lain dormant inside Sora, gained enough power to become its own being.

The first thing that Roxas did after becoming whole was search for his best friend Axel. Who, unaware to Roxas, just died, or rather disappeared from 'existence', like all nobodies do at some point.

Not knowing where Axel maybe, Roxas tried the dark realm. This was the only place that the pyromaniac could be. Hoping maybe a hint of his friend maybe found there, but to Roxas delight, he discovered a some what conscious Axel, hiding in the darkest corner of the dark realm fending himself from heartless and dusks.

Overwhelmed with happiness, Roxas flung his body at Axel, trying to embrace him. Axel, far too weak from fighting the darkness away, lost consciousness trying to catch the small boy. Roxas was left dragging the rather tall man to the only safe place… the old mansion of Twilight Town. Even if the Organization was no more, other threats loomed around every corner. ~


"Quiet down Roxas, I was only looking for some food." Roxas fallowed the sound of Axel's voice into the kitchen. There, the lanky Axel was opening and closing everything possible. "It seems there's nothing edible in this old shack! I've been stuck in bed with no food for however long now, a decent meal would be nice."

"Well," Roxas began to reply in s small voice. "You did wake up every once in a while, and in those few times, you ate all the food I managed to collect for us. Sorry, but I haven't been able to earn any munny to pay for the basic things we need… Please forgive me, I promise to try harder…" Roxas face looked sincere about his promise and sad about his failure, thus causing Axel to rethink what he said.

Axel scratched the back of his head, "No…sorry, that's not what I meant Roxas. If it wasn't for you I wouldn't be here right now." Axel looked down at the sadden boy, the pyro ruffled the child's hair, until laughter escaped from both of them. "Come on, lets go get some food." Axel exclaimed, practically drooling, as he grabbed the blonde's hand dragging him along to the exit.

"But Axel, we don't have any money to buy food with… We can't just steal it." Axel laughed as Roxas finished puffing the words out.

"No silly I have my own munny, Plus I know all the hiding places of the mansion. Got it memorized?" Axel continued to pull Roxas through the forest into town.

"You know Axel; you're still wearing your organization coat… I think it's best if you find new clothes." Axel thought about that, but he was currently too worried about food and how his best friend was acting a little… off.

"Fine, Whatever, but first food," The red head stopped in front of a near by food shack.

"Hello sir!" A beautiful brunette woman, looking genuinely excited to see the tall stranger, exclaimed. "If there is anything that I can do for you… Anything..." The petite brunette looked over the stranger, eyes staying locked on his lower half a little longer than should.

"Okay!" Axel answered back; Roxas knew Axel had noticed the girls flirty ways. An uneasy feeling rushed through Roxas. "I would like… One of everything!" The girl almost fell back in shock, for once her flirting didn't work on a handsome man.

"Al-lright,"she turned around to an old greasy man in the back, yelling the order to him.

"What would you like Roxas?" Axel asked, I serious look on his face.

"Oh… uh… I 'wah" Roxas words started to slur. "I on't eel soo goo-" Roxas collapsed to the ground, his face pale white.

"Roxas!" Axel yelled as he bent to the ground gathering up his friend. A gentle hand touched the blonde's face. "Oh-no, you're burning up! Please hold on Roxas!"

Those were the last words Roxas heard before drifting off into darkness.
