Here we go, the sequel is finally here!
Newcomers are welcome, though if you want to understand the characters' history I suggest you read A Little Problem known as SORA first.
Anyway, I can't express how grateful I am for all the support I received with these stories. I'm always looking for more ways to improve and I'm happy for the critiques everyone has given me throughout this journey.
Thanks again!
Disclaimer: I don't own anything, and this is the only time I'll say it.
Warnings: Though there may be kisses and various sentimental outbursts here and there, I'm leaving most of the pairings up for interpretation right now. If anything seems to pop up, it will mostly be onesided. Seriously though, don't worry about it. This story isn't really focused on romance anyway. Friendship plays a higher role...
Story is rated T for serious themes, violence, and some language.
Enjoy! And much thanks goes to Kanarah J for Betaing this chapter!
Journal Entry 1
Ah, I still feel groggy as all heck. How long does Sora need to sleep anyway? It's been fifteen hours and my eyes still want to shut the world away. Ugh!
It's the poison. I swear, Riku, if I wasn't so focused on fulfilling my new resolution, I would force myself out of bed...man, I'm getting lazy...
Alright, alright, enough of me whining. I'm writing for a purpose...so it's time to get started.
Ahem, so we will start with Axel since I met him first.
Name: Axel.
Height: about five heads taller, ugh! Okay, I don't know his exact height, but does it really matter? He's always been a freaking giant!
Other descriptions: Has wild, red hair that blasts out like a volcano. A twisted, deranged spurt of lava that can be blinding (sort of like Sora's hair, now that I think about it, but Axel's is worse). He has these green eyes...it's weird, sometimes they look really light, but when he gets angry they sort of darken, like they turn brown or something. Oh, and he's really skinny. I don't think he eats anything at all...except for ice cream of course.
Personality: Annoying as Hell with a capital H. He loves tormenting me and saying the most ridiculous one-liners...but at the same time, he also makes me think. He listens to me when I want to share a theory. Also, when I have questions he always knows the answer. So I guess in a sense...he's well-rounded?
Umm, what else...ah.
Okay, so he always gets me ice cream. I'm not sure if that's healthy or whatnot, but Axel always found a way to make it happen.
The Clock Tower in Twilight Town became our hang out. Most of our missions took place there (along with a bunch of other unpleasant stuff).
It's strange, I don't really think about this much but...if Axel hadn't talked to me and given me something else to do when we didn't have missions...I would have been completely lost.
Everything I know about living, about being, came from him. He was the one who explained friendship, love, sacrifice...is that something only a friend does? But I guess…with knowledge comes more questions. Like, how do you know what kind of love you're experiencing? Is it something that comes with family, friends, others? Are there different levels of love that we should differentiate?
Wow...I actually still have a lot of questions. Huh, but...Axel isn't here to answer them.
So what do I do? How can I even learn to function in life (in Sora's body, no less) if the person who taught me how to live isn't even around? How can I be...anything if I don't even know where to start?
Now I'm shivering, seriously. I'm sweating like a maniac...ugh, maybe I should get more of that wacked up soup. I don't want to be awake right now...
Yeah, you know what? I'm ending it here. I don't feel like taking an emo trip today...Axel, he would say that. Emo trip...
Ergh, damn him!
Okay, okay...relax, Roxas. You're getting angry, and that's not fair. You're still grieving...I guess. Man, it all hurts.
Alright, how should I sign this so that I don't sound like a depressed freak?
Ummm, ah...okay, I hope this works.
From the boy who wants to form a heart,
Roxas
