Here's my new story (not the fantasy one, sorry), that's a little bit dark. I'm actually kind of nervous to write this one but here it is.
And because I have to put this : I OWN NONE OF THE CHARACTERS!
Please enjoy! Thank you!
Xion
The pain had been becoming alot worse, it was getting harder for her to ignore it as days passed without relief. Even now she couldn't hear what her friends were saying. Instead she focused on Axel's warm arm that held her close to him, the scent of his cologne. His tone. It could put her to sleep, even when the pain was ripping through her, just like it was doing now. Her eyes kept closing, each time opening slower as Axel talked to Roxas, Sora, Riku and Namine.
Axel and Xion would be going to the doctor tomorrow, after Axel begged her for about a month until she finally caved in. None of the group pointed out that she was dozing off, after a while they all found out the pain she was enduring, releived that the red head had finally convinced Xion to get it checked.
Xion didn't bother trying to look up, her eyes watered causing everything to get blurry. Barrying her head deeper into Axel's side she slipped into blessed sleep, her body sinking quickly into the painless fog.

Something was shining brightly on her face. She was rocking softly, and Axel's smell was fully encasing her. Barely lifting her lids, she saw the bright blue sky above her. Facing the warmth that was soothing her right side, she saw Axel Escape The Fate shirt pressed up against her. "You didn't have to carry me," she slurred out sleepily.
Gently, Axel placed her in his beat up mustang. "Shhhh. Go back to sleep." He insisted, as he lowered her seat back and placed the seat belt over her lap. His offer was tempting, but Xion was suddenly full of energy. On the dash board, the clock read the time they were suppose to leave to go to the doctors. An uneasy tension fell on Xion's muscles as the pain started to slowly return.
She hated doctors, and hated hospitals more. Every time she would visit a hospital always resulted in death. And doctors only seemed to deliver bad news, she never went to a doctor and hear them say it was just a cold. For her it was always scholiosis, or something to do with her weak lungs. Most of it having to do with her weak body, when she was born she was to small and had to stay in the hospital to be constantly watched. Now, her heart drummed with terror the more she thought of it.
"Xion?" His voice sounded worried but his shocking electric green eyes stayed on the road.
"I'm fine, just a little nervous." Even though he wasn't looking she forced a small smile on her face, more for herself then anyone else. Looking around his familiar car, she felt herself wondering why he didn't get a new one. The interior was faded with age and the paint job was worn thin. Being an goverment assasin, they made enough money to buy anything they could ever want, and he still kept this tiny car. Axel would always tell her it had history when she would ask, admiring his beat up car.
Trying her hardest not to think about the upcoming doctor visit or the inevitable pain, she let her mind wonder some more, thinking about when their group first came together. A small smile played on her face, they took a personal pledge when they had joined the small assasin group, shadow's keep. The name never really made sense but she never pointed it out. They all excepted her instantly, their pledge stating they would never leave her , or any member, alone in a time of need. Thinking about it put a real smile on her face, the pain fading as she thought about all of them; Sora, Kairi, Namine, Roxas, Cloud, Aerith, Riku, Yuffie, and, of course, Axel. Most of them had started dating, all except Yuffie and Riku, who the group all teased about them getting together.
The car stopped jerking Xion back to reality. Her genuine smile instantly slipped from her face as she saw the tall building, not even able to muster up a fake smile for anyone else. A shiver worked through her body, and suddenly she was in Axel's arms inhaling his scent. "Shhhh, it's okay. Everything's okay." He pulled her back, making her look into his gorgeous green eyes. "You'll be okay." His words didn't ease the stress, but she followed him, holding his huge hand tightly in her small one.

Namine
The small blonde girl felt bad that Cloud and Aerith were stuck once again in the offie with paper work, but the fear she had in her stomack for her best friend overpowered that. Roxas was softly rubbing her shoulders, trying to soothe her, but Namine still couldn't stop shifting in her seat. Kairi had tried over and over again to reassure her it was nothing serious, but Kairi never took the chance to really get to know the small girl.
Xion was alot shyer then even her, and was lonely up until she met Axel and quickly joined their group. She was their newest and last member, and was most helpful due to her speed and small size. When they had first met, Namine had instantly liked her. The way she would also hide behind her hair, using a curtain of black to hide behind when she was embarassed or nervous. It was those small similarities that drew her so strongly to the girl and made her get close to the girl. Now, Namine felt like she was going to have a panic attack just waiting for news about the girl's 'condition'.
Across the table, Kairi giggled as Sora pulled her closer to him. Only half listening, Namine nodded to something Roxas had said. He was doing most of the talking while Namine sat beside him fretting over the smaller girl. She felt grateful to have him, he always understood her even covering for her at times like this. The amazing blonde even put up with her OCD side, bot getting upset when she reorganized his stuff to calm herself.
Now she stared at him, feeling almost unworthy. Her eyes trailed down to her left hand where a golden ring, that swirled around her fingers with diaminds encrusted in it, wrapped around her finger, not beleiving it was real. Sending up a quick thank you prayer to lady luck, her goddess, she put her hand on the table to admire the ring in the light.
Looking up, she noticed everyone had grown quiet. "Namine? What are you doing?" She looked up at Roxas' sky blue eyes, and her started to tear up. Ignoring the rest of the world, Namine reached up and kissed him. Her heart thudding with happiness, pushing the worry aside for a moment. When she pulled away she heard a soft cough from across the table and saw Roxas' shcked but happy face glowing. "Namine." He whispered it so only she could hear.
Sora softly chuckled and Namine head snapped up noticing the couple across from them. Kairi looked at her with one red eyebrow raised while Sora had a goofy smirk across his face. Instantly, she tilted her head letting a curtain of gold cover the world. Roxas hugged her tightly to him, and she decided not to worry for Xion right now.
After all, Axel was there to protect her.
