Chapter 3

Accidents and Awkward Moments

"So you're one of the Keyblade weilders huh? Promise me a good time okay!"

The words went through Roxas for a moment then he shifted his keyblades from their block position to an attack position and fixed the hooded Oblivion commander in his icy cobalt eyes which held a glare. "What do you want?" Roxas growled at him.

"Ooh, a fiesty kitty." the hooded man said with a little chuckle seeing Roxas flare with more anger at the comment. " Don't worry, I don't bite...much. As for what I want? That'll have to be something that you can ponder over." he said twirling the red circular weapons that he held lightly on his fingers a few times before throwing one at Roxas who brought up his keyblade to block it sending it back at the hooded figure who caught it. "Not bad."

Roxas glared at the Oblivion Commander dashing at him while lashing out with his keyblades so that the hooded commander had to block them with his weapons until he jumped back. Twirling the red weapons fire then tinged the edges of them causing the whole thing to set aflame. Roxas looked at the flames in surprise, where did they come from? Is it some sort of magic? His thoughts were interrupted as the flaming circles came at him in which he tried his best to dodge.

Sora and Kairi had fought their way through numerous monsters of the Oblivion Kingdom making their way near the Oblivion Kingdom end of the battlefield. "Did you see Roxas yet Sora?" Kairi asked while killing yet another of the soldiers, they seemed to only get more numerous as they killed them.

"No, not yet Kairi! Keep a good look out!" Sora called out to Kairi and wincing as one of the white things cut into his side with one of its claws. He quickly ended its existence with a downward slash of his keyblade and gave a glance to his side to see the damage. Its not too deep, good. Now to find Roxas. Sora thought as he kept up his attacks with Kairi.

After awhile the numbers seemed to die down. Darting over to Kairi he accidentally tripped a bit causing him to stumble into Kairi's shoulder making both of them break out into a blush. Dismissing her blush quickly Kairi then suggested hastily," Um, lets go look for Roxas now that the enemies are starting to retreat!" she then took off and Sora followed her a bit more slowly.

Why is my heart racing like this? he wondered. Kairi was one of his best friends!

I can trust the Queen, thought Namine and then took a deep breath. "Minnie, I mean Qu-" she was cut off by Minnie.

"Its okay. Call me whatever you please, we're in private." Minnie said with a light smile.

Namine smiled and nodded. "You see, Quee- I mean Minnie, I've been having these weird dreams. I remember them so vividly and put them down in my sketchbook, but after I get done with the sketch I don't remember a thing at all. I would put it into words, but its like I'm in a trance or something and can only draw." she picked up her sketchbook and opening it to a page where there was a hooded figure with fire tinged around strange circular weapons with Roxas and his keyblades fighting him showing it to Minnie.

Minnie looked over the sketch with a hint of surprise. Then asked," These drawings...have they ever come true?"

Namine gave a weak nod then took back her sketch book. "Everytime they come back from something they tell me about what happened and...its the same as in my sketch book. Sometimes something that happened before. Its strange and I didn't want anyone to think of me differently." she sniffed looking at her hands as Minnie came over patting her on the shoulder.

"Its okay Namine. Your secret is safe with me." she said reassuring the blonde teen.

"Thank you." Namine replied with a smile," But I'm worried about Roxas. That picture...and from what I've heard of the Oblivion Kingdom... will he be alright Minnie? What if something happens to him and I didn't warn him or something! I'll feel terrible!" Namine said starting to panic.

"Now, now. Roxas is one of the best fighters in Destiny Kingdom! You should have a little more faith in him. He'll be fine." Minnie said. Her words seemed to soothe Namine a bit so that she nodded.

"I think I'm going to go read for a bit in my room now." Namine said getting up to leave. "Thank you Queen Minnie." she said before exiting the Library.

"Your welcome dear." Minnie said her face turning into a troubled look. I hope I'm right about Roxas. Please come home for Namine's sake Roxas!

"Burn Baby!" shouted the hooded man as an inferno of fire came shooting at Roxas. Roxas dodged some, but it singed him a bit and he muttered to himself," Shit!" For a scrawny looking dude he was pretty strong and quickly caught Roxas from behind sending him flying in a front flip in which Roxas corrected his footing landing on both feet and countering by slashing at the fire weilder. The ripping of fabric could be heard as the Oathkeeper Keyblade slashed through the sleeve of the coat that the Oblivion commander wore cutting the skin and leaving a short, but deep slash in his left lower arm.

The hooded man looked at the wound for a moment and then chuckled saying," This is getting interesting. Would you like to make a bet?"

Roxas wasn't sure if he'd heard him correctly. "What?"

"You heard me. Want to make a bet? If you win you can kill me and I won't do a thing. But if I win...well the rest's a secret. You up to it?" Roxas was sure he saw a devilish grin behid that hood of his.

"Get real! There's no way in the world I'd ever do something stupid like that!" Roxas shot back furiously.

The hooded commander chuckled and then said," Are you scared of losing? Is that why you're acting like a coward Mr. Keyblade master?"

That was the last straw. Roxas snapped, he dashed at the fire weilder lashing out viciously which made him jump back in surprise and listen intently to Roxas's words. "Shut up! I am NOT AFRAID OF YOU!!! I'll beat you at your own game and shut you up for good!" Roxas panted and glared at the commander of Oblivion Kingdom until he realized what he'd said. Dammit! Why does my fucking anger always get the best of me?!!!?! he screamed at himself in his mind.

"Really now? Good. Since we're about to challenge each other I thought it'd be best if we got on a first name basis eh?" he smirked before taking off his hood to reveal flame red spikes that shot out in all directions. "The name's Axel. A-X-E-L, Got it memorized?" he pointed to his head as he said the words.

"Yeah, whatever." Roxas spat bitterly at Axel who chuckled.

"Now I suppose I get a name out of you Mr. Keyblade master?" Axel said twirling his weapons.

"Roxas, now name your game. I'm wasting my precious time talking to you when I could be killing you about now." Roxas said icily his eyes like daggers as he glared at Axel.

"So hasty. Calm down a bit Roxy. We'll have pleeeeeeenty of time for the challenge." Axel gave a smile and then continued," The first to disarm the other is the winner. If you win then you can kill me and I won't do anything to stop you. Now if I win...well that's my little secret as you already know." he winked at Roxas.

"My name is NOT ROXY!" Roxas roared lashing out at Axel as a signal that the challenge had started. The two went back and forth exchanging blows neither seeming to give in. It was then that Axel sent up a wall of flames and disappeared into them. Roxas was surprised when Axel suddenly appeared behind him soaring past him sending up flames tailing him singing him even more. Before he had time to react Roxas felt that Oathkeeper had beenknocked out of his hand and was plummeting to the ground. He felt enormous pressure then on the hand that still had Oblivion in it. Both of the circular weapons were pressing down on it and he could feel the heat radiating from them as his hand was growing weaker. It was at this precise moment that Axel took his opportunity to elbow Roxas in the ribs making the breath fly out of his lungs like a bird to the sky as he crashed to the ground.

In the air Axel had retrieved one of his weapons and landed feet first. Oblivion on the other hand lay a foot or two away from Roxas. "Looks like I won." Axel said with a smile as Roxas started to realize this.

"Damn it." Roxas cursed as he found himself in the predicament. Axel had won and the worst part of it that was coming to Roxas was, he didn't know what Axel wanted as a reward for winning the challenge! "Okay then. Get over with it." he said trying to be as calm and collected as possible.

Axel smirked. "Okay then. I will Roxy." he said a chuckle escaping him as he heard Roxas growl at the word Roxy. "First close your eyes." Axel said and Roxas snarled a curse at Axel, but did it anyway.

Roxas heard the sound of Axel retrieving his weapons and then thought, maybe he's going to kill me after all. Well at least I died fighting. Roxas sighed and then stood perfectly still waiting for the killing blow.

It never came.

Axel had leaned forwards and kissed Roxas on the lips instead making Roxas's eyes snap open in shock, eyes as round as the full moon as a blush escaped his face. It was a light kiss and was soon over as Axel pulled away, ruffling Roxas's hair as he was still stiff from shock and had the temporary red blush on his face. "Thanks for that." Axel said as he noticed that they had an audience. "See you around Roxy." With that Axel disappeared into one of the portals in which the members of the Oblivion Kingdom had come from. Although just before he stepped into the portal Roxas had snapped back to normal, grabbed Oathkeeper and lashed out at Axel.

"I'll KILL you!" Roxas shouted at him, but Axel was already gone. He turned his head to his left and then saw that both Kairi and Sora were there and staring at him.

Oh shit. Don't tell me they saw that! Roxas's mind screamed as his heart dropped to his shoes.

Kiesha: 'Tis me again. I hoped you luffed the AkuRoku. 'Cause I did.

Roxas: I sure didn't! Sora and Kairi saw me and eveything!

Axel: Cheer up Roxy! Weren't their faces priceless though?

Roxas: No! -tries to hurt Axel-

Kiesha: Um, I'd better leave before they turn their fight my way.
