Hehe…thanks for the reviews. There were only two, though…XD. Anyhoo, on with the story!

Chapter 2: Why?
"What exactly are you getting revenge on?" Roxas asked, watching intently as his friend started pulling mistletoe out of the box (A.N. Earthpaw was right!). Axel turned to him, piling the stuff onto his arms.
"Well…it started when…"
--Flashback Time!—
It was a cool autumn morning when Axel woke up. Unfortunately, he lay in his bed in his underclothes, and was freezing cold. So he slumped towards the closet and opened it. Le Gasp! (A.N. That was random. Oo) Nothing was there except an old stringy sock that Demyx had hid there to keep it away from him (since it was so smelly…). Checking out the door just in case, he sprinted to the nearest room, which happened to be Mixarna's. He knocked slowly, which led to door being opened, smacking him in the face. (Bet' you didn't see that coming…XD) The brunette at the door giggled slightly.
"Hey Axel. You know, you shouldn't stand too close to the door. It doesn't op-"
"Yeah, yeah. Whatever. Do you know where my cloaks are, by any chance? They're all gone.
"Nope. Haven't seen them."
"Well…can I borrow one? I'm really, really cold…"
"Awp, sorry. Mine are all in the wash. The one I'm wearing is the only one I have with me." Axel hung his head low. He then looked inside her room, then saw a table in the middle of it. It seemed to have a bit of sliver hair coming out of the back. He stared at it for a bit then returned his gaze at Mixarna.
"Thanks anyways. If you do find mine, tell me. Got it memorized?" Mixarna nodded, then went back into her room, slamming the door.
In Mixarna's room…
"Hey, Zexion! You can come out now!" Zexion lifted his head from under the table that supposedly had a mass of hair behind it.
"Wow…I can't believe he didn't see you over there!" The female nobody said, shaking with laughter.
"And you said hiding in the closet would be better…"Zexion mumbled, as Mixarna happily skidded over to him, raking his hair with her hand. She did her trademark grin, then sliding over to her bed, she lifted the sheet that was hiding almost all Axel's cloaks.
"The plan's going along nicely! Now, it's your turn! Go get em'!"
Back with Axel…He managed to get a piece of clothing: a drape from a window. Even though it was thin, he still was slightly warmer than before. Demyx was avoided him when passing through the same hallway, since Axel reminded him of a ghost he saw in a nightmare. Soon enough he found someone else strolling down the hall: Zexion.
"Hey, Zexion. Do you know where any of my cloaks are?" he asked giving him a desperate look. Emo-dude just stared at him.
"No."
"Could I borrow one of yours?"
"No." Axel sighed, continuing to walk.
"Actually…" Axel paused then walked backwards to listen, "I think I saw one in the bathroom. I think that one might be yours…"
"Oh. Okay! Thanks, Zexy!" Axel exclaimed, then started to dash towards the bathroom. Zexion had a sliver of a smirk on his face, but then he realized…
'Thanks, Zexy!'
"What…?"
The Hall with the Bathoom…Axel skipped all the way to the door. He was about to open it when…
'Wait…'
…he realized he heard the water running in the room. And it wasn't running in the sink. It was for the shower.
'Oh crap…' he said unrepeatable words here, then realized another thing.
'All bathrooms have windows, don't they?' He grinned at his idea, then creeped down the flights of stairs, and out the back door.
Outside…
Our red-haired friend here started climbing up the walls of Castle Oblivion. It seemed to be pretty easy, until…
"BZZT. INTRUDER. PREPARE TO BE ELIMINATED." Axel's eyes widened.
"Oh sh-"
KABOOSH!
He fell of the edge of the ledge (it rhymes!) he was on, but grabbed the one below.
"What the hell! Xemnas never told me we had some sort of security here!"
Wherever Xemnas is…"ACHOO!" Xemnas sneezed, wiping his nose afterwards.
"Gesundheit, sir." Saïx said.
"Thank you. Now, will you please go on posting the papers about the new security system around the area, and that no one should be climbing the castle walls for any reason."
"Yes, sir…"
--Back with Axel—
"Aww shoot…" he whispered to himself. Then he noticed Xaldin in the outside, randomly practicing with his spear. Since his element is wind, large gusts of it were blasting towards Axel. Little pebbles pelted him as they were dislodged. He shivered more, since his clothing wasn't very thick.
Then he got an idea…
Cliffhanger! Wow…that's a LONG flashback! It's still going after this chapter, but it'll end. You'll see Axel's plan soon enough!
