(A/N) This is my second fanfic and an attempt at something kind of sad. There is light AxelRoxas um if you squint a little. Man I just realized how short this is, less than 400 words :/

Axel fades

I always wondered what it would be like to die. I mean doesn't everyone? I know Zexion talked about it a lot before he was terminated. Your life is supposed to flash before your eyes, but will that happen if you're not living one?

To fade away unlike a normal human.

But I wasn't scared… that would be an emotion. And we don't have those. So I would try to remember cheerfulness, and crack sarcastic jokes for my friends. Roxas, he turned his back on the organization, ran away looking for answers. Marluxia and Larxene were found as traitors, and were terminated. Demyx got sent on a suicide mission—to fight Sora. It was only natural to think that I'd be gone next. But I was one of the last left in Organization XIII.

Now as I lay here and my vision is starting to blur, my breaths becoming hard to catch. I was a Nobody, turning into nothing. Because I saved Roxas—well, Sora, but he's still there… right? But… Roxas… is whole. My nonexistence is just ceasing to be here.

"He was the only one I really liked…" My voice was soft and shaking when I talked. Hopefully he could hear, "He made me feel… like I had a heart." It looked like Sora said something, but I wasn't sure what.

I should feel 'happy' for Roxas.

I feel so cold Roxy.

Don't call me that… here, hold my hands. In my fuzzy mind, I could almost hear him.

But I'll only see the others in the next life. If there even is one… no one ever proved it. Not Vexen, not Zexion.

My vision was smothered with black. I closed my eyes, I'll never see his smile or big blue eyes again. Or hea-

"Axel! …Axel!" His voice.

Heh, I couldn't feel it, but my numb face probably had a crooked half smile.
