Chapter 4

"Ok, ok, how about this?" Kairi said as she started to act all manly when she goes down into the camp site. Her horse was watching her as she started, "Excuse me, where do I sign in? Ah, I see you have a sword. I have one, too. They're very manly and strong." She said as she tried to take out her sword but failed horriblely. Her horse couldn't help its self as it rolled on its back laughing none stop. Kairi glared at him as she took off her shoe and threw it at him. "I'm workiong on it!" she yelled but to only sigh again. "Oh, who am I kidding. It'll take a miracle to get me into the army," she said looking between two trees that showed the camp site.

What was she thinking? A girl could just dress-up as a guy and just walk calmly into a war zone without even being spotted or killed? No, it was way too dangerous for her to face she wished she never left her family and just stayed there, but she would be even more miserable there than she is here.

"Did I hear someone ask for a miracle!" a voice shouted behind her as a huge shadow formed of a dragon. "Then let me hear you say, 'Aaah!'" Axel said as Kairi screamed and hid behind her horse. "That's close enough!"

"A ghost," she whispered to herself as Axel started to talk to her.

"Get ready, Kairi, your seventeen halation is at hand, for I have been sent by your Ancestors to guide you through your masquerade!" Axel said as he looked down to make sure that Namine was doing her job, which she wasn't. She was too busy making shadow puppets than making sure the fire and smoke was still on. To his dismay, he kicked her out of the way and continued his speech, "So heed my words, cause if the army finds out you're a girl, the penalty is death!"

"Who are you," Kairi asked still a little shaken by the sudden changes. She already knew the penalty if they found out if she was a girl, but that didn't quite really matter to her now. Right now she just wanted to know what this 'thing' or looked like and if it was friendly or not.

"Who am I," Axel questioned a little hurt that she didn't know, but who wouldn't. "Who am I? I am the guardian of lost souls! I am the powerful, the pleasurable, the indestructible Axel." he finished as he showed himself to her. To her surprise, Kairi just stared at the little creature in disbelief that her Ancestors brought him. Axel just grinned at her as she continued to stare at him. "Well, I am pretty hot, huh?" he said flirting a little unitl Kairi's horse started to stomp on him thinking that he was a lizard or something.

Kairi quickly pushed her horse away from him as she bent down and picked him up. "My Ancestors sent me a little lizard to help me?" she asked in disbelief.

"Hey, dragon, DRAGON, not lizard." Axel commanded not liking that she thought of him as a lizard. I mean sure he was small but man that was low for him. "I don't do that tongue thing."

"You're...um..."

"Intimidating...?"

"Tiny!"

Axel rolled his eyes as he started to climb a tree so he was eye level with her. "Of course, I'm travel-sized, for you convenience. If I was my REAL size, your cow here would die of fright." He said petting her horse's noise but to almost get his hand chopped off. "Down, Bessy! My powers are beyond your mortal imagination. For instance, my eyes can see straight through your armor." As he said this, Kairi gritted her teeth and slapped him across the face. A guardian of lost souls? More like a perverted guardian she thought furiously. Axel held onto his cheek as he suddenly stood up and started to announce, "Alright, dishonor! Dishonor on your whole family! Dishonor on you, dishonor on your cow, dis-"

"Stop," Kairi exclaimed in panic. She didn't want to dishonor her family exspecially even when she's already gottan this far into the war. Knowing what she was doing she was probably already dishonoring her family's name, but the thought of losing her father was more precious to her than her own life. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm just nevous I've never done this before." She said while sighing in between.

"Then you're gonna have to trust me, and don't you slap me no more. You clea on that," he asked while glaring at her. Kairi quickly nodded as Axel stood up and started to walk towards the camp. "Alright, okey-dokey, let's get this show on the road! Namine, get the bags," he said as the light blue cricket hopped onto Kairi's horse. "Let's move it heifer!"

"Ok, this is it!" Axel said once Kairi was at the front gates. She was so nervous that she bearly heard a word that her guardian was telling her. She didn't know anything about being a man except they went to war and took care of the family. She could easily do that but fighting and talking and acting like one was a whole different story. "Time to show them you man-walk. Shoulders back, chest high, feet apart, head up, and strut!" he cried as Kairi did what she was told and started to walk into the camp. While she was walking, she saw same men trimming their toenails and picking their noses. Was being a man like that? "Beautiful isn't it?"

"They're disgusting," Kairi whispered back. There was no way she would be doing that at this camp, not in a million years.

"No, they're men, and you're going to have to act just like them; so pay attention." Kairi wasn't so sure if she could until she saw three men talking to each other. They looked pretty normal to her unlike the rest. One of them lifted there shirt and showed the other two his tattoo.

"Look, this tattoo will protect me from harm!" he said looking all proud and brave.

"Hmm..." the one with blonde hair and wearing a black beanie thought to himself until he punched the man in the stomach, making him fly across the field.

"I hope you can get your money back!" the said, laughing his head off.

"I don't think I can do this..." Kairi suggested. Looking at the two men and what they just did she didn't know if she could fit in or not.

"It's all attitude," Axel pointed out. "Be tough, like this guy here!" he said pointing at the blonde. He soon caught her eyes looking at him as he glared at her with unwanted eyes.

"What are you looking at?"

"Punch him," Axel whispered making Kairi hesitate a little bit. "It's how men say hello." Kairi looked back at him as if he was crazy but she did it anyways. She punched him without him noticing and he slams into another; who catches him before he lands on his face.

"Oh, Seifer, you've made a new friend, y'know." He said as Seifer struggles to get out of his friends arms.

Axel grinned. "Good, now slap him on the behind. They like that," he chanted as Kairi obeyed and did just that. At first, she thought she was doing pretty good until Seifer grabbed her by the collar of her uniform and lifted his hand about ready to punch her.

"I'm gonna hit you so hard, it'll make you Ancestors dizzy." He threatened but the guy from before pulled him away and tightened his grip on Seifer's arms, to hold him still. Appearntly, his friend didn't want him to get into a fist fight on the first day camp, which Kairi could understand that she didn't want any trouble either.

"Seifer, relax and chant with me."

"Errrrgh..." he said as the other guy started to chant and swayed him back and forth.

"Nanuami tofu dah..." Kairi was amazed and astonished at the sight she was seeing. The blonde was actually started to feel better as he mumbled the words back to his friend. "Feel better?"

"Yeah," he said as he was left free. "Ah, you ain't worth my time, Chicken Boy." He said as he started to make his leave.

Kairi sighed in relief as she did the same until Axel shouted, "Chicken Boy!? Say that to my face, you limp noodle!" In a flash of seconds, Kairi was once again face to face with Seifer again. His eyes burning with anger as he lifted his hand about to punch her, but she knocked just in time and his punch hit another making him fall to the floor.

"Oh, sorry Demyx." He apologized until he sees Kairi trying to escape by crawling under a tent. "Hey," he cries as he tries to grab her foot, but Demyx kicks Seifer into the other guy, then attacks with a kick in the air. The two boys start a fist fight while the other is trying to break them up. While this was going on, Kairi desided this was her time to escape, but luck just wasn't on her side today.

"Hey, look, there he goes!" Demyx cries as the trio chase after her through a tent. When the trio runs through it Kairi giggles as she picks back out of the tent to watch as the trio crash into the food line. With everybody on the ground groaning, they all turn there attention towards Kairi for she wasn't all covered in rice.

"Hey guys..." she said with both hands up in defince.

"The Unversed have strucked here, here, and here." Ven said as Zack and his son, Sora, were discusing on what plans to do about the war that was coming. "I will take the main troops up to the Tung Chow Pass and stop Vanitas before he destroys this village." He says with a hiss and hate in his voice. Sora was very use to his father's actions when it came to Vanitas, but it must of been hard for that he was his uncle and his dad's brother.

"Excelletn strategy, sir! I do love surprises," Zack said while chuckling to himself. Sora just sighed and rolled his eyes at him.

"You will stay and train the new recruits. When Zack believes you're ready, you will join us...Captain." Ven said as he handed Sora his sword.

"Captain," Sora asked, surprised. He wasn't expecting his father to asign him as a leader until he was probably a little bit older.

"Oh, this is an enormous responsibility, General!" Zack said not really agreeing with what he was doing. The boy was way too young to be training soldiers for a war that could probably kill and ruin them all. "Perhaps a soldier with more experience?" he asked hoping Ven would argee with it, but he didn't.

"Number one in his class, extensive knowledge of training techniques...an impressive military language...I believe Sora will do an excellent job." He said as he stood up from his seat.

Sora followed and just wanted to hug his father, but with the Emperor's head-master here he couldn't do anything with his father. It was really hard for him to act as if he was a stranger to him, but it came with the job and the way that he was raised that he was used to it by now.

"Oh I will! I won't let you down, this is...I mean...yes sir." He said while nodding his head.

"Very good, then, we'll toast our victory at The Land of Derpature. I'll expect a full report in three weeks." Ven said as he made his way outside with Zack right behind him.

"Oh, and believe me, I won't leave anything out." He said as he glanced a warning look at Sora. Sora didn't really pay any attention to what he said for he was too busy looking at his sword, his honor.

"Captain Sora, The Land of Derparture's finest troops." He murmured to himself until he shook his head and put his sword around his belt. "No, the greatest troops of all time." He said while chuckling to himself as he stepped outside. With the view of men talking and eating food it was a food fight with punches mixed into one.

"Most impressive," Zack murmrued to himself, but Sora heard it as he growled deep within his throat.

Ven looked at his son once he was on his horse and shouted, "Good luck, Captain!" knowing that his son needed all the help that he could get with this troop.

"Good luck...Father." Sora whispered as he watched him ride off. Once they were out of his sight, Zack tapped on his clip board which got Sora's attention.

"Day one," he teased as Sora just rolled his eyes and walked up to his half beaten up soldiers.

"SOLDIERS!" he yells, making everyone stop what they were doing and separate quickly.

"HE started it!" they all shouted at the same time. In the middle of the crowd was Kairi, curled up in a little ball. Luckily she was bruised anywhere but the sight of see Sora, the Captain, made her jump back into reality. She quickly stood up and dusted herself off knowing that she was now in big trouble.

"I don't need anyone causing trouble in my camp." Sora said with a look of anger mixed into concern at the same time. It sorta confused her why he was concerned about her, maybe she was just seeing things, maybe.

"Sorry..." she spoke suddenly but she then realized that she sounded like a girl just then. She quickly fixed her throat and started to talk again, this time more deeper. "I mean, sorry you had to see that. But you know what it is when you get those manly urges...just gotta KILL somethine. Fix things...a cook outdoors..." she said but was soon interrupted by the Captain.

"What is your name?" he asked as Kairi stuttered a bit. She forgot to even thing of a fake name for her to use. What was she going to do now? They're sure to find out that she's a girl and not a boy now!

"Your commanding officer just asked you a question!" Zack spat as he walked up to Sora's side. Kairi didn't look the man in the face for if she did she knew that he would reconizer in a instant. Plus, she didn't quite like the man that much anyways.

"I've got a name...and it's a boy's name too." she said, still thinking.

"Rai! How about Rai," Axel suggested.

"His name is Rai," she whispered back but Sora heard it and thought that she was talking to him.

"I didn't ask for his name, I asked for yours."

"Uh...Ach-chu!" Axel said, not knowing that he was still trying to help Kairi with a name.

"Ach-chu...?" she said a little unsure.

"Ach-chu?!" Sora said, starting to get a little ticked off right now. All he wanted was the boy's name was it that hard to say a simple name?

"Gesuintit! Hee hee...I kill myself." Axel said while whipping his some of his tears away.

"Axel..." Kairi said a little frustrated now.

"Axel?" Sora asked.

"No," she said looking back at him.

"Then what is it!" he yelled trying to calm himself but was failing horriblely.

"Roxas! Roxas was my best friend growing up." Axel suggested with a hint joy in his voice.

"It's Roxas..." she said finally liking the name that he picked for her.

"Roxas." Sora said looking at her trying to make sure she wasn't lying to him, which she was sorta.

"Course, they could go through the files and find your name and think about -" Axel started to say but Kairi shut his mouth for his voice was starting to give her a headach. Yes she knew that they coud do that but she could just make up a little story that she was her father's "son" who nobody talked about.

"Yes, my name is Roxas."

"Let me see your conscription notice." Kairi suddenly takes out her father's scroll and hands it to the Captain, knowing that she was probably going to have to make up a pretty good lie for this.

"Cloud? The Cloud?"

"I didn't know Cloud had a son." Zack exclaimed a little surprised by the sudden news.

"Er, he...doesn't talk about me very much." Kairi lied as she tried to spit but failed miserably.

"I can see why. The boy's an absolute lunatic," Zack whispered to Sora who just shrugged him off while snickers came from some of the soldiers.

"Ok, gentlemen, thanks to your new friend Roxas, you'll spend tonight picking up every single grain of rice. Tomorrow, the real work begins." Sora said as he walked back to his tent with Zack following. Many of the soldiers groaned as they started to show fist signs towards Kairi.

"You know, we have to work on your people skills." Axel said as everyone was dismissed.
