Happy Endings
2.
Axel slowly walked down the halls of the castle. It was unbearably lonely without Roxas there at his side. For some reason his mind was on what Demyx had said earlier. There are no happy endings for villains. The bad guys. There just can't be.
Xigbar came strolling down the hall with is hands in his pockets and a crocked smile on his scarred face.
"What's up, Xig?" Axel asked.
"Xemnas just sent 9 on a mission. Heh, total suicide mission, too."
Axel couldn't help but to grin. So Demyx had been wrong after all.
Poor kid.
Demyx failed his mission hours later. For some reason, Axel was sorry to see him go. Nobody else cared though. How could that be Demyx's happy ending?
xXx
Now it was Axel's turn. He knew it, too. He could see Roxas in Sora's eye and that's what angered him.
So you ran away for this? Pitiful. Hope you're happy at least. You're the good guy now. At least…at least you'll have a happy ending, Axel thought as he jumped up, his chakrams lighting on fire.
Suddenly, he was on the ground. He stared at Sora. His eyes were just like Roxas's. He was talking, but he wasn't exactly sure of what he was saying. Axel just wanted to see Roxas, one more time.
As he was fading off into the darkness he could've sworn Sora looked exactly like Roxas. I smiled and he smiled back. His lips didn't move, but I heard him say, "Axel, I'll see you in the next life."
"Right, see ya then, Roxas."
Roxas, who was quickly looking more and more like Sora, nodded.
Before he knew it, Axel was standing in a dark room in front of Demyx.
"There are happy endings, Axel." He said.
"What do you mean?"
"Everyone in the organization didn't have a heart, nor did they like their life. That's why it's a happy ending when we lose. For we are now…at peace." Demyx said fading away for the last time.
Axel took a deep breath. For once, he wasn't worried about Roxas. His shoulders were light with the organization gone. There was even a faint beating in his chest.
So this was how Organization XIII got their hearts. Xemnas promised a heart and we got one…in the end, Axel thought also fading away for the last time.
Now it's up to you to decide. Do you believe everyone gets and deserves a happy ending? And do you believe everyone will get one even if they do deserve it?
