Summary: His doubts about Vexen and Zexion's abilities faded away as he approached it. It looked as perfect as, "…Roxas?" Axel breathed. The look alike opened its ocean blue eyes, giving Axel a questioning stare.
A/N: Another story… Sorry but I couldn't resist. I love Halloween, so I've several stories buzzing around in my head as a result, haha; let me know if you like it so far (:
Trick or Treat?
Axel was in a state of anticipation, pacing as he waited for Zexion. It wasn't like number six to be late and he'd promised to show up several hours ago. He'd considered searching for him several times, about to cave in and leave when a pathway through the darkness appeared.
Zexion stood before him, a prideful glimmer in his visible eye.
"It's done."
"Finally." The slate-haired male laughed listlessly.
"Come."
The red-head followed Zexion through the pathway he'd just materialized through immediately.

Axel trailed behind Zexion much like a shadow as the two nobodies entered the Castle's laboratory, careful not to upset any beakers or mess up any paperwork. His eyes lit up when they reached their destination.
When Zexion had told him about his and Vexen's new technology for cloning, he'd been skeptical, but at the same time… hopeful. He'd become increasingly worried because Roxas had been sleeping more and more as of late. He'd been warned of the possibility, because Sora still existed, and so the red-head was afraid that one day soon, he'd lose him forever. That possibility was almost too much for him to take. So when Zexion had mentioned they'd be starting experiments soon, Axel had requested that they make one of the blond before it was too late.

Zexion pulled the red-head aside.
"Just because they look the same, doesn't mean they are. We applied extra findings we'd had about hearts, and when he woke up, he told us his name was Ventus. He seems quite different from Roxas, in fact."
"What the hell was the point in making it look like Roxas if you weren't going to have it have his personality!" The red-head hissed under his breath.
"Axel, the whole point was to test our research," Zexion deadpanned. "Regardless of the outcome, you still have to uphold your end of the bargain and interact with him so that we can conduct more research while you gather information. Do not let on to him that he's a clone and that we are nobodies." Axel crossed his arms as Zexion began to exit the room. The slate-haired male paused.
"Oh, and Axel," he said, glancing back at the red-head, "We expect a report in two weeks."

A/N: Sorry it's so short… this' more of an introductory chapter to give you an idea of what it'd be like.
