Fire & Moonlight, a Kingdom Hearts fanwork: 101 Theme Challenge by Wishing-Fire, written by Raberba girl

62. Plague (rough draft)

Summary: Axel will never escape them.

A/N: Takes place in the same universe as one of my unpublished WIPs, and therefore makes no sense. -.- It's set in the Dive to the Heart.

o.o.o

"Arrgghhhh! It's like a plague, I'm telling you!"

"A plague of Puppy Eyes?" Saïx said dryly from where he was lounging in the middle of his pillar with a book.

Axel stomped over and threw himself down next to his old friend with a sigh. "Yes. And no, I'm not kidding; that little stinker Ven's been getting in on it, too! Roxas and Xion are being a bad influence on him."

"Judging from the way he's got Terra and Aqua wrapped around his little finger," Saïx said dryly, "Ventus has no need of being taught how to utilize that particular trait of his."

Axel waved his hand impatiently. "Ven was born with Puppy Eyes just like the rest of those brats. I'm talking about the way Roxas and Xion are now doing it on purpose."

"It was nice when they were clueless, wasn't it," Saïx remarked absently, turning another page.

Axel frowned. "Where'd you get the book?"

"Zexion's pillar."

"Duh, of course you did, why did I ask that?"

"Do you really want me to answer that question?"

Axel grinned. "Only if you want me to tease you some more about how I'm the only other person in your stained glass."

Saïx glared and turned his back on him.

"Aw, don't pout, Sai. I think it's cute. Naminé does, too."

"I TOLD you to keep the children away from my pillar when I'm gone," Saïx growled.

"Kind of hard to do that when we have to pass through yours to get back to Roxas's from Zexion's! Naminé and Zex are pretty good friends, you know. I can't just tell her she can't visit him whenever you feel like being dumb."

Saïx propped himself back on his hands, glancing at Axel over his shoulder. "What you really mean is, you can't tell her No when she's shooting you with-"

"Don't say it!"

"-Puppy Eyes."

"Gah!"

Author's Notes: This fic is SO OLD. What's funny is that I wrote it long before finding out about ZekuNami. XD
