Thank you Bond Of Flame08 and AkuEri for reviewing! :D Sorry if the part with Naminé was confusing in the last chapter, Axel actually teleported to Twilight Town to ask her while Roxas and Xion were in Castle Oblivion. I should have made that clearer, sorry!

Disclaimer: Didn't change.

"I hate this place." Roxas grumbled, crossing his arms at the dark scenery. Axel raised an eyebrow at the blonde but stayed silent. "I swear, if I see those three…" He continued to mutter to himself quietly as Axel shook his head. "Why did they use me as a scarecrow, anyway? I'm not seeing it." He pointed at the object in front of the green fountain, and Axel leaned back to examine it.

"Why don't you give it Keyblade? I bet that'll change your mind." Roxas shot him a short glare and sighed, causing Xion to smile behind them.

"At least have these moments to keep out minds of things." Axel nodded in response with a quick glance sideways and Roxas stopped in tracks, earning stares from the other two. He frowned, and Xion noticed the ember of light sparking off his fingertips as Axel blinked at the two of them, confused.

"What are you doing, Roxas?" The blond stayed quiet, and Axel frowned when his sapphire eyes landed on him warningly. In a flash of light the Kingdom Key appeared in Roxas' hands as he held it protectively upward, purple dart-like burst of light ricocheting off the Keyblade's shaft or slamming into the ground around them. Axel's chakrams and Xion's own Kingdom Key materialized in their master's hands as footsteps sounded throughout the empty area.

"Well, well, look what showed up. I didn't think I'd find you guys here, but hey! That just means I get a bonus." Xigbar threw his arms up, grinning, until his eye landed on Roxas. He scowled, summoning his Arrow Guns. "Why do you and her…always look like that?" He short a single shot forward, which Roxas deflected with his Keyblade like a baseball bat.

Axel put on hand on his hip, spinning a chakram on his free hand lazily. "Do you really think you can drag us back? Then you've got a lesson to memorize, don't you?" Axel grinned, chucking the two weapons forward that exploded in a flare as they swung by Xigbar's head. He gave a rough laugh before readying both weapons, pointing them forward and tilting his head back.

"Flamesilocks is being a party crasher? I never would've guessed it'd be you!" He fired several shots sideways, a small-scaled dark corridor absorbed them, and Axel's eyes darted over the area rapidly.

"Roxas!" He yelled as he shoved the boy, a steam of bullet's slicing the air. Roxas' eyes widened. "He controls Space, don't let him screw with you."

Xigbar laughed as the bullets shot haywire, grazing the other three ex-members. "You really shouldn't have betrayed us, y'know." He fired another shot. "Bad for business, and we still need our Keyblade wielder!"

"I'm not coming back." Roxas hissed, swinging the Kingdom Key forward to knock out several shots. "And neither are they!" He darted forward, throwing the Keyblade toward Xigbar as he tried to summon a dark corridor. He stumbled as the air stayed normal, and No. II flicked the Kingdom Key sideways with an arrow gun, then spun around to slam it into Roxas' gut. He glared up from his position on the ground.

"Now, kiddo. I think time's up." He held the arrow gun downward, and Roxas grinned. Xigbar was met with a Keyblade to the face as Roxas recommended the weapon and slashed it upward, giving a cry as he shot to his feet, him and his Keyblade outlined in a vibrant white light. Axel flashed him a grin as his chakram connected with Xigbar's side and Roxas threw him backward with a powerful, light-infused slash of the Keyblade as Xion threw her own forward, landing another hit. Xigbar grunted as he landed on his feet, and flashed another wild grin before being swallowed in a dark corridor.

"Roxas, what was- hey!" Axel called as the other male tumbled over, coughing. Xion was already bent over next to him, holding her Keyblade over his head and murmuring a cure spell. "Roxas, you alright?"

"Yeah," He forced a grin, giving an appreciative nod to Xion before turning back to Axel. "The Keyblade just keeps wearing me out." Xion's eyes widened in remembrance, and she looked up at Axel, who had the same look on his face.

"Roxas, can you stay here for a minute?" Axel motioned to Xion to follow him as Roxas nodded, sprawling himself out on the ground. After the other two were a good distance away Xion shot Axel a concerned stare.

"He's only going to get worse. You said I'm stealing power from him, and if this keeps going on he won't be able to fight."

Axel closed his eyes for a moment. "I'm hoping this gets better over time. If it doesn't we won't have any other choice then to go back to the castle and try to find a way to heal him." Xion gave a small sigh.

"Then I guess we wait it out?"

"We don't have any other choice at the moment." The duo glanced back at Roxas, who was now holding the Kingdom Key in his lap and looking at it in a contemplative way. "Roxas!" The male in question looked up, banishing the Keyblade. "Come on! We're going to that hill." Roxas nodded before running up after them, Xion giving him another worried glance.

"Why are headed there, though?" Roxas questioned. "If Xigbar tells them we're here won't Xemnas send the others?"

"I don't think so," Axel commented as Curly Hill came into view. "They'll probably think we fled by now, so they should be looking elsewhere. If they do find us, though, Xion and I'll take care of them, alright?"

"Alright," Roxas mumbled. "I wish I could help you guys more."

"It's fine, Roxas." Xion smiled. "We can handle things until you get better." Roxas sighed, glancing down at the Keyblade he had summoned again.

This chapter seems shorter to me…

Yes, Roxas DID use his Limit Break even if it was a short fight, it was because soon before they ran away Xion and Roxas went on a mission in Agrabah, where he admitted that the Keyblade had started to wear him out from using it. So it wore him down enough to use the Limit Break.

And for the fight scene in general, I'm sorry if it was short or bad, I'm practicing on how to improve those. As for the other Organization Members, there are hints to who is going to show up, but you have to look carefully. xD;
