Chapter Thirteen: I Like to Groove to Passion

Now, with the possession of the KH2 soundtrack, summer vacation and lots of cereal, this story will be done in no time. And I would like to know if anyone would like me to write a very dramatic Axel story…along with a sequel to this. I've had it in my mind for about two months. It involves me being in a play. It's almost the reverse of this story. I think you lovely people would like it. By the way, if you haven't noticed, I always spell Laxeaus wrong. I think that I spelled it right here. Anyways, you're stuck with either Kix or yogurt.

"We should probably dye your hair." Axel suggested, as he decided on what should be done to help me. "I dyed mine."

"I was wondering why your hair was that fake red color. Riku's hair wasn't silver, it was blonde." I commented. "Do I have to dye my hair? I like the color it is."

"Fine." Axel said. "But you're going to have to add a little something to yourself that will make everyone believe you're actually accepting their offer."

"Like what?" Sora asked, as he attempted to keep Leon from biting Axel's face off for using chakrams as a weapon.

"I dunno, a little tattoo or something—"

"Absolutely not!" I took a peek out the door and saw my mom standing there.

"Mom!" I groaned. "I'm undergoing training! Go watch the dogs! Talk to Beth!"

"Hi Anna!" she said from across the room.

I screamed out in confusion.

"Everyone, go away!" I screamed. "Mom, you too!" People slowly began to file away…even Beth, but except Leon who lived in the building. "I had enough stress at home. Too many people I hated."

"Lighten up!" Axel said. "Just remind yourself that they're all dead now." He pat me on the shoulder and began to pace, thinking of what to do. "Well, you are going to have to buy your own coat, gloves, shoes, and pants. The Organization doesn't just cough up money to new members. So, I'll have to help you with that. You're also going to have to learn how to master these things…And with a trainer like, Leon here, who's never used them, you'll need some real help here."

"Anything else?" Kairi asked, as we quickly heard her voice change. "Axel, I can't believe you're doing this to her! She's never had any major experience with the Organization except with the game, and you're just throw her in there! What's wrong with you! You didn't treat Roxas like this! So, you're just going to toss Anna into the Organization and leave her, aren't you!"

"Namine, I never said that!" Axel growled, as Kairi covered her mouth.

"Sorry!" Kairi said. "I didn't mean for that to happen!"

Axel waved the comment by Namine away, and continued pestering me. "You should dye your hair though."

"I've dyed my hair like twelve times, and if I do it once more, I'll go bald!"

"That's even better!" Axel announced. "Go bald!"

"No!" I shouted.

"She can have my coat." Riku said. "I still have one."

"I thought you got rid of yours." Sora said. "We all saw you throw it away."

"That doesn't mean I don't have others."

There was a knock on the door. Sora opened it to show Beth running in waving a CD.

"Your mom gave it to me for you!" she said, handing it to me to reveal.

"MY KH2 SOUNDTRACK!" I squealed. "Omigod, omigod, omigod! We have to play it!"

I ran up to Cid's computer and opened the disk drive and let it start playing. I skipped the first two songs and started grooving to the Japanese version of Passion.

"How can you understand that!" Riku asked.

"I know it in English, thank you." I commented. "Axel, I'm pumped up for some training now."

And by Friday, I was grooving once again in the same spot, wearing an Organization outfit, not really caring that I could die within the next few hours.

"You ready for this?" Axel asked me, as he seemed to lean against an imaginary wall.

I shrugged. "If I can have some Fritos first. I suddenly want some." Axel opened up a portal.

"Get in there kid." He laughed. "Sora told me that they'll meet you at the castle within a few days…if things go right." And he pushed me in.

I found myself looking at the door to the teacher's lounge at the school. I sighed and knocked on the door.

It opened to reveal Zexion in just his underwear. "Ahh!" I squawked, shielding my eyes.

"Annax is back." He called into the lounge/office room/really fancy place.

"Can you just call me Anna?" I asked, hoping my drama skills were still sharp as they were back in my world.

Zexion shrugged and let me in. "You might want to put some pants on." I commented.

"They're drying!" he snapped, as I walked in, observing how empty the room felt, despite how many people were in there.

"Explain how you got the coat." Xaldin asked me sourly. Oh crap…I hadn't thought about it. They'd probably think I was a wimp if I said that I bought it. If I said Riku gave it to me, they'd probably catch on…

"Uh…" I started. "I stole it." I prayed that they would believe it.

"From who? Axel?" Demyx laughed. "He wouldn't even face me."

"People won't face you, Demyx," Larxene said. "Because they know that they'd kick your ass."

"I stole it from Riku." I muttered, catching their attention.

"Riku?" Laxeaus said. "You stole it from him?"

"Yeah."

"Did you fight him, or did you just steal it and get away with it?" Marluxia hissed, bring his face right up to mine.

"Does it matter?" I asked. "Either way, I got away with it." Demyx and Larxene pulled me to the side.

"How'd it feel?" Demyx asked me.

"What?"

"Being a part of the Organization that's going to put an end to all of this fighting between light and darkness." Larxene said. "The only way for it all to stop is if everyone gives up their heart. Everyone'll be a Nobody, and then, the fighting stops."

"What about the Heartless?" I asked. "They'll be left."

"We'll be taking them out." Demyx added. "We just need a working Keyblade."

"We're going to recreate Kingdom Hearts, too." Larxene continued. "That way, we can bring Xemnas back. At least I think so."

Aw crap. This is what Axel wants my help for.

"Annax!" Marluxia called.

"I said to call me Anna!" I yelled at him.

"I don't care. You are Annax now. You're in the Organization now. You'll go by what we call you!" he snapped.

I sighed. "Whatever…" I realized with my dialog, I sounded a lot like them. Woot, I sound like a stoner. "What do you want."

"We need you to infiltrate Disney Castle. You'll be able to since you have a heart."

Axel, you're really good at this.

"Can you open portals yet?" he asked me, seeming to forget he had just said that I have a heart. I shook my head, and he opened a portal for me and threw me in.

I fell down on to a soft, plush carpet. Finally! Carpeting! I pushed myself up, only to find the King with the Keyblade in front of me.

"Don't hurt me!" I squeaked.

"How are you in the castle?" he asked me, holding the Keyblade directly at me.

"I have a heart!" I pointed at my chest. "It goes boom boom! I'm a double agent, okay?"

The King lowered his Keyblade. "What's your name?"

"My name's Anna." I said, taking off the coat. "I'm a friend of Sora's. I'm trying to help stop a plan…okay series of plans…by the Organization."

"You're the girl they want to recruit, then." The King asked.

"Yeah, Axel's trying to help me get out of it and stop them all." I paused. "He told me that I could be safe here."

The King's Keyblade vanished and he started to lead me down a hallway towards the library. "Here, huh?" he said. "He may be a Nobody, but it's a good thing that he still knows that it's best to keep your friends safe."

"Whoa!" I said. "I just met Axel last week!"

"That doesn't mean that he can't be your friend." The King continued. "Do you know anything else about your arrival here?"

"I know the Organization is trying to recreate Kingdom Hearts." I said. "Omigod, I forgot, in my world, all of what's going on takes—"

"I already heard from Goofy and Donald." The King assured me. "It's a game."

"Yeah." I said. "And that's one thing I know the Organization wants my help with. They're trying to get to even more worlds by the means of my games."

"Hmm." The King started. "Do you have the games with you?" I took the Kyo bag off my back and pulled out the three games.

"Right here. I bring them everywhere."

"I'm going to need to take a look at those." He said, as I handed him the games.

"You're not going to break them are you?"

"Of course not! I just want to see how they work." He continued, seeming to tell how uncomfortable I was about letting him see the games.

"I think those games are the only way that I can get home again." I said. "Because that's how I got here. Axel pulled me in through the TV screen."

"Don't worry about it!" The King replied, seeming to try and cheer me up. "I told Riku he'd get home, and I know you can too."

"What if the world's been destroyed too?" I asked.

"If we can restore worlds once, we can do it again."

King Mickey, if you're not right, I've lost all hope in Kingdom Hearts.
