"How was I suppose to know fire would make it worse? Isn't the saying 'fight fire with fire'?" Axel literally wilted under Roxas's heavy glare. "Axel, fighting fire with fire doesn't actually work." "Well I get that now!" The taller man sighed dejectedly. "Look, how about I make it up to you?" Roxas's interests perked. "How so?" Axel didn't even bother to hide his smile.

"Take you somewhere you haven't been before." "Where?" "It's this place, I don't know if the others know about it or not, it's, well, I can show you better than I can explain."

Roxas was stunned to say the least. The two of them were currently sitting on the ledge of a clock tower. Not the clock tower from Peter Pan's world, that world seemed to be locked away from the Organization. This place, Axel said, was called Twilight Town.

Axel teetered dangerously on the edge. Roxas cocked his head to the side, tearing his eyes away from the sunset. "What would happen if you were to fall?"

Axel mulled this over, squinting at the orange red sky. "You know, I dunno. I don't think much would happen. That wall didn't get rid of us, I doubt falling would either."

Roxas accepted this answer, it sounded about right.

"You know Saix is going to be mad we didn't report in right away."

"Ha!" Axel laughed sarcastically. "Let him have a false hope that I died." He grinned sadistically. "So then I can crush it to a million pieces." Roxas rolled his eyes at his friends theatrics. "What's up with you two?"

His grin faded, a frown tugging at the corner of his lips. "I don't really know anymore. He's never liked me, always watched me like a hawk. At first I thought I just needed to prove myself, but even when I did better than anyone, he wouldn't take it. So, then I thought maybe I was taking his light. But no, he just only cares for his own self goal, I think he wants to replace Xemnas. I think I get in his way." He shrugged as if it didn't matter.

"But isn't that bad?" He shrugged again. "Rox, I'm just a hitman, a pawn. There's so many things that go on inside the Organization that no one knows about. Or maybe they do, and they're just like me, they don't care. I'm just a guy without a heart, and no where else to go."

Roxas was speechless, Axel seemed to be causing that more and more.

AN: Seriously, foolish foolish has been on repeat the whole time i was typing this up. The line: "Cause when you play with fire, you know that you get burnt" made me smile cause it played when I was typing Axel's argument about fighting fire with fire.
Also, I think I may rename my mom's cat. Her name is Sky, she looks more like a "Sora" if you ask me.
