(Axel's POV)
"Riku, you don't want to do this. Naminè will never forgive you." Riku shakes his head sadly, going over to the old woodshed and pulling out a dragon-like sword with an angel wing. I feel the blood drain from my face. It's the Way to Dawn Keyblade, one of our old member's Keyblade. That is fucking impossible…
Riku nods and exchanges a look with Xion. She nods back and two Keyblades materialize in her hands, Oblivion and Oathkeeper. How the hell can they do that? Keyblades are unique to Orgy 13 members and the chosen ones… Not these puppets. They're the enemy. Unless Shadow stole them or got her experiment done.
"Axel, I don't want to do this, but we have to. Our lives or yours. It's self-preservation…" Xion sighs in defeat. I get not wanting to die, but still…
I close my eyes, resigning to my fate, when there's a wet thud. I open my eye and Xion is standing there, Oblivion raised over her head. Riku lies on the ground, a trickle of blood coming from his head. Xion stalks over, her Keyblades disappearing.
"Axel. I love Naminè. I need you to do something though. Shadow is going to punish her for insubordination. Burn your ropes off, knock me out and go save her. For her and Roxas. Win-win for everyone. Now fucking go." She turns around, her arms crossed. Aren't I a genius, I didn't even think of burning my way out…
I concentrate and feel the ropes disintegrate. I grimace and whack the side of the small girl's head, but I catch her before she falls and set her down gently. I'm not a complete jerk anymore, Roxas softened me up a lot…
I rush back into the mansion and search the whole first floor, but there's nothing. Suddenly, there's a blood curling scream from upstairs, defiantly Naminè. Shit shit shit… if I let his little sis die, Roxas is going to kill me.
(Naminè's POV)
"Namine, you dare disobey me? Did Xion tell you what I did to her?" Tears stream down my face and more welts rise on my back. Shadow tears my dress to shreds the rest of the way and starts hitting my ass with the riding crop. This is not supposed to be happening! She keeps hitting me and when she breaks skin, a scream tears out of my throat.
The pain becomes numbing and constricting, holding me paralyzed. My vision swims and I finally close my eyes.
"What? What the hell, Naminè? Where are you?" My eyes snap open, a confused Shadow standing above me. I raise a hand, free from my restraints. I'm transparent. I must be invisible to her.
Suddenly, the door bursts in, Axel in the doorway, a strange circular weapon in each hand.
"Shadow, what did you do to her? Where is she?" He yells, flames flaring up around him. Shadow growls and shadows gather in her hand in the shape of a key.
"I have no fucking clue, flame head. All I know as that we both want her but I am not giving her up. " In a flash she's in front of Axel and they're stabbing and slashing at each other at an inhuman speed. I back up slowly, unsure of what to do. Shadow waves her empty hand and her weapon explodes, engulfing them. I scream and rush over. When the shadows clear, they're both gone.

I am enjoying this so damn much…. I plan to write a lot over Easter. Prepare for some new characters and some good shix :3
