8/8- All Fired Up!

A/N: Actually was written and posted on 8/8...on deviantART lol. I posted it here on 8/16. It's Axera day!

.*.*.*.*.

"Yo." greeted Axel as he swaggered his way into the Grey Area, pleased to see his two best friends.

"Well I'll be damned," Demyx said, grinning very Cheshire-like, "If it isn't the star of today."

Roxas laughed, "Hey Axel."

Axel raised a brow. Then he grinned. "It's the eighth, isn't it?"

Demyx nodded. "Uh-huh. Meaning: Starting tomorrow, I'll be a month away from my own day!"

Roxas smirked, "Also tomorrow...you have to spend the day with this pyromaniac."

Demyx was a little flustered. "Shut up, Roxas..."

Roxas laughed. "So Axe, What are your plans for today?"

"Well, I'm not exactly sure..."

"Oh come on, Axel! Do what you love the most, except 10x worse! Cause mayhem!" Demyx said.

Roxas laughed again. "Yeah, and we volunteer to help."

Axel grinned. "Boys, we got work to do."

The other two nodded.

"AXEL!" Saïx yelled, running down the hallway. He was chasing said redhead and his two friends.

The trio laughed as they ran for their lives.

...And then it actually got scary.

Saïx was on their tail, so close that one wrong step from the three and Saïx would have a hood in his grasp.

"Saïx! C'mon, man! It was just a joke! See? Haha!" Roxas attempted to calm the man in berserk.

"Well I'm NOT laughing!" He said, reaching out a hand to grab the shorter blonde's hood.

"Ah!" Roxas screamed as Saïx had his way.

"Man down! Man down!" Axel yelled, but he kept running.

Demyx sped up out of fear, "Run, run away!" he said, knocking things over in his pursuit.

"Dammit! You can't leave me here! Get back here you cowards!" Roxas yelled.

Soon, Saïx had all three troublemakers sitting back against the wall. "Explain." He ordered.

"Saïx!" Demyx whined, "We were just trying to have a little fun."

"You had a bonfire with my coat in the meeting room! You're damn lucky I have extras! Give me a better explanation than that, or I will hurt you physically AND emotionally! AND you will be paying for all the things you singed, Number VIII!"

"We just wanted to celebrate Axel's day, today! That's all! We just wanted a laugh!" Roxas whined, too.

Saïx's face twisted with excess rage.

"Please! Punish us tomorrow! Just let Axel enjoy his day!" Demyx said.

Axel nodded. "Pleaseeeeee?"

Saïx berserk left him as he frowned. "Fine. It shall be so, but don't think I'll forget!"

"We know you won't." Axel said, getting up. "Thanks!"

"Get out of my sight before my mind changes!"

They did just that.

"So...What now?" Demyx said as they admired Kingdom Hearts from the balcony.

"Yeah Axe...what now?" Roxas asked.

"Watch." was all Axel said as a fire lit in his hand. He shot the flame far out into the darkness beyond the Castle That Never Was.

The blondes watched in awe as the flame exploded into the sky, making a six-spoked star, resembling a firework.

"Cooooollll." Demyx said.

Roxas nodded, the orange and red reflecting in his huge blue eyes.

Axel smirked and sent out a barrage of them, maybe a hundred, and the other two clapped as they all exploded in the sky, lighting up the balcony as well as the sky.

"Amazing!" Demyx remarked at the fiery colors in the sky.

"Amazing doesn't begin to cover it!" Roxas said.

Axel panted from all the work he just did. He smiled at the sight. "Thanks."

They watched the colors fade, enjoying each other's company.

Axel smiled yet again. He loved seeing his friends happy...and that's what made this day of his more special then any others had been. It was truly a treat.

Happy Axel Day!
