Axel and Roxas walked in step with each other down the hallways of the castle, they were going to raid the castle's kitchen because Roxas was hungry.

"My stomach is going to start eating itself soon!" Roxas cried as they walked through the door to the kitchen

"Calm down you'll go into labor and I don't want to have to clean up the mess" Axel said sticking his head into the fridge before hearing a disgusted cry come from behind him.
Axel turned around to see Roxas staring at the ground, a puddle of liquid underneath him. Roxas looked up at Axel with a shell-shocked expression on his face.
Axel couldn't help but laugh, the whole situation looked funny.

"Axel, this isn't funny, I have to go to Vexen's lab!" Roxas said still shocked

"Alright, alright one minute" Axel said walking out of the room to fetch a towel.

Zexion was sitting in his room reading quietly when it happened, rip. "No!" Zexion cried looking at the torn page of his book. He closed the book and gently placed it on the desk. Holding back the tears he walked out into the hallway to nearly be bowled over by Demyx.

"Sorry Zexy, this is an emergency!"

Zexion stared at the place Demyx had disappeared from for a minute before nearly being bowled over again this time by Axel, who was muttering something under his breath.

"No. 8" Zexion said sternly making Axel stop dead "Explain."

Axel turned around slowly, "Well…Roxas and I were standing in the kitchen and we were looking for something to eat then suddenly Roxas went into labor and now we're cleaning the baby up so it's not all gross and stuff" Axel said really quickly

Zexion blinked once before realizing what Axel had said "What? The baby has been born already?"

"Well… yeah… where have you been the past 9 hours?" Axel asked raising an eyebrow at Zexion

"Well… reading of course, that's all I really do around here" Zexion replied, again nearly being bowled over by another organization member rushing to see the new born child. Zexion turned around to see who it was but they were gone.

"So, is it a girl or…Axel?" Zexion had turned to face Axel but Axel, too, was gone. "Dammit"

Axel stood in Vexen's room next to a sleeping Roxas holding their baby.

"I knew that the child would be cute but I didn't think it would be this cute" Vexen said wiggling his finger in front of the child's face, which was obviously annoying the poor thing.

Axel stared at Vexen before looking down at his child. "I have to agree with you, actually, but obviously Roxas's child was going to be gorgeous, just look at him!" Vexen and Axel both turned to look at the sleeping teen that looked so peaceful in his unconscious state.

Vexen laughed "Too true"

Roxas woke up in the nursery with Axel sleeping on the large chair next to the bookshelf.

"Axel…" Roxas's voice was raspy but he managed to get a decent sound out.

Axel jolted in the chair and looked around "Oh, Roxy! You're awake, welcome back"

"Where… where is my baby?" Roxas asked looking around not seeing or hearing a child

"With Vexen" Axel responded walking over to the teen

"I want to see" Roxas said trying to get the strength to pull himself off the bed in vain.

Axel died a little at this display "Wait here" he said before rushing out of the room.

Roxas was a little annoyed, all those months and effort and he couldn't even see his own child…

Axel walked back into the nursery with a bundle of blankets.

"What are the blankets for?" Roxas asked curiously

Axel chuckled "It's what's in the blankets"

Roxas pulled himself into a sitting position, so he could see better what Axel was holding.

"Roxas meet your child" Axel said passing the teen the bundle of blankets.

Roxas looked down at the child who was looking back at Roxas with wide, curious eyes. Roxas looked up at Axel, speechless. Axel smiled.

Axel and Roxas had gathered everyone in the common room a few days after the birth. They thought it would be appropriate to introduce the newest member officially.

"Alright, everyone calm down" Axel said gaining silence from the other 11 members. "As you all should know, we have a new member"

"Everyone" Roxas said addressing the room "Meet our baby girl"

The room was filled with aws and 'oh my god, she's so cute'

"Yay! A baby girl finally someone who I can share my love of pink with!" Marluxia cheered

"And what am I?" Larxene asked crossing her arms

"Yeah but you don't like pink, and you're mean to me"

"What's her name?" Zexion asked, curious.

Roxas looked at Axel, who nodded. "We decided a few months ago on names" The teen began "Her name is Xion"
