Chapter 3
(Alex: Hey. I'm baaaaaaack. Well, Axel finally snapped out of his "faze" so we're again both writing another chapter of this story. If this is the first chapter you read, and hopefully it isn't, you have to go to at least chapter 1. You don't need to go to the prologue, but I suggest you do. Have a good time reading my story. Oh yah, I almost forgot. Lightning Princess, who ever you are, I'm sorry to tell you but we're both right. What I called Larxene's daggers was also another name Square Enix gave them, but some people just call them kunai's or however you spell it.)
It's been a while since the Axel Roxas fight in the cave in the Pride Lands. Axel, Roxas and Larxene soon after teleported to a world called Agrabah. Axel was use to dry air, so this world did not affect him, but it affected Larxene and Roxas. Larxene had to hold Roxas on her back. Roxas appreciated her kindness. Axel quickly looked around for any people, but there was no sign of life besides the shops. Axel gave off a slight laugh.
"The organization could find us here, but this is the easiest place to hide. We'll try to manage." He stopped and held his right arm out to stop Larxene from moving. Around 5 flying heartless appeared from the sand. Axel quickly disposed of them. "Great. I forgot that the heartless are still around. We'll have to keep our guards up for even stronger ones." Axel turned to Larxene and waved for her to follow. As they walked, Larxene noticed a person dressed in black and a hood, around the height of Roxas, was following them. Every time Larxene turned around, it hid itself from sight. Roxas noticed this as well. Larxene let Roxas down. Roxas walked over the person's last hiding place.
After around 50 seconds, Roxas came back with the other person holding his hand. The figure was also wearing an Organization XIII coat. Roxas walked past Larxene and sat by a nearby wall, followed by the unknown figure.
"It's great to see you again," Roxas said. It turns out the figure was a girl.
"I've missed you Roxas," she said back. Larxene whistled to Axel so he would come back, which he did. Larxene pointed to the two kids. Axel looked and instantly let a smile on his face. He walked over to the kids and put his hand on the girl's hood-covered head.
"Been a long time. How's life doing ya?" Axel asked. As he lifted his hand, the girl looked up at Axel's face. She mouthed a few words and then looked forward. She saw 15 neo-shadows appear. As if it was planned, Roxas began to laugh as he did before. Tears were flowing down his face. He jumped up to his feet with two keyblades in his hands. Starlight in his left hand and Oblivion in his right. He stormed the heartless before Axel and Larxene could do anything. About 10 seconds later, Roxas was finished killing all the heartless. The girl stood up, clapping as she walked towards Roxas. Roxas made his keyblades disappear.
"So you've gotten stronger," the girl said, stopping her clapping. She walked in front of Roxas and poked him on the head. "I told you to stop being insane. You'll scare people that way."
"I can't stop the madness," Roxas said back, followed by the girl slapping him across the face.
"Is this how you answer me? I can't believe I…" she paused, "I fell in-." Her sentence was stopped by Roxas reaching out and wrapping her in his arms. She was completely surprised at this embrace. She felt some beating in her chest she had never felt before. Suddenly, a rush of emotion overpowered her. She clasped around Roxas' neck in her arms and showed her pale face to him.
"It's been a long time since I've seen your face. You're as beautiful as I remember." The girl raised a finger to Roxas' mouth, silencing him. She felt a smile from behind her finger.
"And you're as handsome as I remember."
"Aww," Axel said, butting into the conversation from a distance, "reunited at last to show affections of lo-." He was cut off by a silent lightning bolt to the head. Larxene put her index finger to her mouth, signaling Axel to stop talking.
"I thought I would never see you again," Roxas said, the girl's face a light red. She reached up and pecked his cheek, making his face turn light red as well.
"Have you been working out?" she asked. Roxas' face turned back to normal as he noticed the girl was feeling his muscles. After she was done, a giant heartless appeared. The group fell to the sand because of the impact wave from the heartless stepping on the ground. The heartless opened its mouth to release a loud roar. Larxene and Axel got to their feet. As if by reaction to them moving, the heartless threw a giant fireball at the party. To block the blast, Larxene went in front of Roxas and his friend. At least this will protect them, right?
After the smoke from the fireball disappeared, Larxene was still standing there, gasping, but without a scratch or burn mark. In front of her was Axel, protecting her. Larxene fell to her knees. Axel turned his head towards his company to show a smile. After his smile was shown, he fell to the ground. He coughed up blood. Larxene was scared and confused at the same time. Isn't he supposed to be immune to fire? She crawled to Axel's body, looking for any damage to his figure.
"I forgot to tell you," Axel said slowly, startling Larxene, "I'm not entirely immune to fire. My body cannot feel the heat, but my skin can still get burned. That is the reason I can create fire on my chakrams and create fireballs, but as long as they don't touch my skin. I hid this secret for a long time." Axel's smile faded. Larxene looked at Axel's face to see it was burned on his left side. She remembered something. Larxene grabbed Axel's hand and set it on his face.
"Come on, heal yourself. You have to or you will die. Please don't die." Tears flew down her cheeks. She looked up to the heartless who was responsible. She was pissed. Four giant lightning bolts struck through the heartless' head, three through its stomach, and one in each of its feet to keep it from moving. The heartless screamed in pain. Larxene began to float towards the enemy, kunai's in both hands. "If you killed him, you will suffer." She threw multiple kunai's at the heartless, which expanded on contact. Suddenly, a figure dressed in an Organization XIII coat smashed into Larxene's side. Both of them plowed into the ground. Roxas covered his face to keep the sand from going into his eyes.
"Wh-who are you?" Larxene asked, pain surging through her stomach and chest. The man (Alex: yes, it's a man, or boy, you pick for later, pick which age you want and I'll make it so. Also, if your wondering about the giant heartless, it died because of Larxene's giant-ass bolts) stood above her. He lifted up his right, booted foot and stomped on Larxene's chest, making blood shoot from her mouth.
"Ah, blood, the showing of a heart. You must be one of the lucky ones. If you are a Nobody, you must have experienced some sort of emotion." The man stomped on Larxene's leg. Roxas ran to the seen, but was unable to help because the unknown figure grabbed him by the neck with one hand. As Roxas was struggling to free himself, the girl, who was originally waiting by a wall, walked over to the unknown man. As he saw her, he dropped Roxas on the spot.
Larxene rolled over and ran away from the scene to Axel's burnt body. His body was burnt, but his face was healed. He must have been healing himself while we weren't looking. She walked over to his side as he opened his eyes. She went her knees and set Axel's head on her lap. He had no reason to talk, so he kept his mouth closed. He just looked up into Larxene's eyes. He admired those eyes. Before he lost the rest of his strength, he did what his chest told him to. He reached his head up and locked lips with Larxene.
Larxene was surprised. She felt Axel's soft lips on hers, making her face burst red. They were warm to her, like the fire in his soul. She closed her eyes and pictured the past; of all the times Axel and she were together. Even if they were picking on each other, they both had fun playing together. Both of them were the best of friends, now they were sharing a kiss. Larxene opened her eyes after they were done. Her face was still red and so was Axel's. They looked into each others eyes and said at the same time: "I love you."
Suddenly, Roxas walked over with a red mark on his neck. "Finally you guys kiss. The whole organization was waiting for that." He walked back over to the mysterious man and Roxas' friend.
(Alex: I know it's random a little, and sometime I get off topic, but I got through it.
Axel: …
Alex: I mean 'we', we got through it.
Axel: Well keep on reviewing, and have a safe rest of your summer!
Alex: Oh look who's finally acting happy!
Axel: Shut up.)
