But thanks for reading and I hope you enjoy this!

"Hey watch where you're going!"

A White haired woman squeaked as a hooded figure in a black cloak ran into her, causing her to stumble backwards.

"You can see me?!" The mysterious figure said astonished, the woman only raised an eyebrow unaware that everything around her was frozen.

"Yeah of course I can...Am I not supposed to be able to see you? Are you a ghost or something?"

She asked tilting her head as she looked The figure up and down,

The figure chuckled and put hands on his hips.

"Not exactly...But more to the point...you're not supposed to be able to see given the circumstances, unless.."

He sighed and scratched the back of his neck as he stopped to think.

"Unless what?"

The woman prodded take a step closer towards The man

"Unless you're somebody that's pretty special...which I don't think you are no offense."

The figure said shrugging, the woman scoffed at man's remark and rolled her icy blue eyes.

"Obviously I'm pretty special other wise I wouldn't be able to see you You lump of coal head!"

The tiny woman huffed putting her hands on her hips, The man smirked as he let out a low chuckle. There was something about this woman he couldn't quite place his finger on...she had a spark to her and he definitely liked that.

"Lump of Coal Head? Defiantly originalI'll give you that...Look I don't understand the situation either and quite frankly I don't have time to figure it out.. I've got people to find and Hearts claim."

The man said sighing before he turned to his back to the woman.

"Hearts to claim...hey don't walk away from me! I didn't even get your name!"

She shouted.

"The name's Axel...and yours the half pint?"

Axel said pausing as he turned to face the woman with a smirk on his face. He pulled down his hood to reveal spiked red hair and stunning green eyes that had purple teardrops under them.

"Half pint? Excuse me but my name is Aleis!"

Axel chuckled as he felt a strange warmth grow from inside him one that he knew far too well from his days with Roxas and as soon as he recognized it his stomach churned.

"You know for someone so cool looking you are awfully hot headed there half pint."

Axel said smirking, referencing her snowy white hair and icy blue eyes before he walked down the stairs and then disappeared around the corner.

"Half pint how dare he?! Who does he think he is anyway?!"

Aleis grumbled to herself as she trudged down the stairs and headed in the direction of her best friend's home just as time came back to life, completely unaware of the impact that the encounter would have.

Mean while some where in a castle far far away...

"Well well if it isn't Axel? Finally deciding to come back!"

Larxene teased as she turned her head in Axel's direction as he walked through the door of the castle.

"Save it blondie..."

Axels grumbled as he passed Larxene and Marluxia, who tsked at Axle's behavior.

"Someone's feeling a little hot headed..."

Marluxia said less than quietly but Axel let the comment slide as he strode out of the room and headed towards their leaders room.

Upon entering Xemnas's office Axel notice that the odd warmth had disappeared and also he found that his leader was not alone...

"Axel what a surprise...I hope you are well.."

Xemnas said raising an eyebrow as Axel strode in rather confidently.

"I'm just dandy but I do have a few questions that I think you got answers to.

Axel said rather bluntly.

"Straight to the point...must be important."

Xigbar said smirking as he turned his attention to Axel.

"Just a little but any way so you know how when time freezes no one is supposed to be moving..."

Axel said sitting in a chair located in front of Xemnas's desk.

"Yes I do know of that, go on..."

"Well what does it mean if a seemingly normal person CAN see us and by all means defy the time freeze."

Axel said sighing as he finished talking.

Xigbar furrowed his brows before talking.

"Axel what are you getting at?"

"Answer my question and I'll answer yours..."

Xigbar opened his mouth to retort but was silenced by Xemnas.

"It means that either they are a nobody that is unaware of what they are or someone that is very strong hearted and maybe even a keyboard wielder or may posses unique abilities even as a full person...may I ask what brought this up?"

Xemnas said raising an eyebrow.

"Well you see I bumped into this woman today and she could see me...I accidentally bumped into her and she not only saw me but yelled at me as well..."

Axel said shrugging as he talked about his encounter.

Xemnas hummed in interest at Axel's story.

"That's quite the interesting story Axel...does this woman have a name?"

"Yeah it was Aleis, I think. So what did you mean by special abilities?"

Axel said tilting his head.

"Individuals such as this woman may have abilities such as clairvoyance, elemental wielding, Empathic abilities, telekinesis, key blade wield...the possibilities are endless. Individuals such as this woman may even attract heartless due to having a strong heart which as you know is a beacon of light in the darkness. But they will usually come in form of dreams and will wear her down till the can come into reality and will make her a nobody...tragic isn't it?"

Xemnas said in an almost delighted tone as he watched Axel's face fall.

Axel's stomach churned as he took in all the information, unsure of why he felt this way over a complete stranger.

"So is there anyway to prevent someone like her from becomeing a nobody?"

Axel said with little emotion making Xemnas smile.

"Of course there Axel all of which are temporary but why would you want to prevent the making of another nobody? And honestly It's up to these individuals to seek out help themselves..."

"Why do you care so much for a strange girl? It's not our job to play protector axel. Don't tell me you think you have feelings!You know that's not-"

"Woah woah chill out man! Don't be jumping to conclusions like that! I literally just met her today. The only reason I ask because being a nobody really sucks! Being devoid of real emotions and having that empty feeling inside you kinda drags ya know?"

Xigbar scoffed and shook his head as he headed for the door.

"That's what you said about Roxas too...I've seen this before and I'll be damned before I let happen again!"

Xigbar huffed as he slammed the door shut behind him leaving Axel and Xemnas alone.

"Geez what's his problem?"

Axel mummbled as he got up and stretched.

"Axel, while this woman is fascinating I would take caution with getting involved with her. Humans like to talk and it's not wise to meddle with fates plan...but I hope I have answered your questions thoroughly enough."

Xemnas said folding his together on top of his desk.

"More than throughly and Thanks There And don't worry about me I can take care of myself despite what Xigbar and the others think."

Axel said before turning to leave.

"It's not you we're worried about...like I said that woman is a beacon of light for creatures in the dark. If you insist with meddling in her affairs just be prepared to fight."

Xemnas warned before Axel left the room and went back to his own room to retire for the evening.
