Welcome to the last chapter of True Light. Thank you for supporting me as you have, and for those who took pity on the poor beginner fanfic author and decided to not murder me for my excessive cliffhangers I love you most. Though many of you tried to kill me for killing Zekkusion T-T

Standing back up after leaving flowers on the grave, I pushed back my strange mix of a mullet and mow-hawk hair. "You know I never meant for this to happen." I had this undying feeling he blamed me. And it made my heart sink into the depths of my chest. I could smell the roses around the private graves, not many of which I knew, not many of which I cared.

"Demyx!" Axel said hurrying over to me. "You're going to catch cold dressed like that. Your going to give me wrinkles forcing me to worry so much." He said, giving me that genuine smirk. He was full of fire like always, and I placed another bouquet of flowers on the grave residing next to the first.

"Do you think," I looked up into the overcast sky through the trees, "They blame me?" It was the first real moment we had together. Larxene and Marluxia had taken me back to Mar's apartment. He was completely out of it when we arrived, and I had no idea until later Zexion had been killed. From what I saw Marluxia grabbed his gun and left, meaning I was stuck for the night to rest while Larxene took care of me. (Talk about awkward)

Later when Axel returned he told us the rest of the story. Which is as follows:

It was a shoot out, Axel, Roxas and Marluxia weren't backing down. But when Axel told Roxas that this was the end, Roxas jolted to the left and Axel's gun fired. Or it would have, had it had more bullets in it. Roxas turned and shoot Marluxia twice before he could retort. Roxas wasn't a superman or anything, had Axel actually shot him he'd be gone. From there Roxas bolted for the entrance where Xemnas was waiting.

They had gotten away. We had two of out best men shot down and they had gotten away! I couldn't believe it myself. It hurt just thinking they were going to live happily ever after. And I don't think Axel was going to allow it. But there were more matters we had to have taken care of. Xigbar took the liberty of arranging the funeral and liberating of both Zexion's and Marluxia's bodies. Though I couldn't attend, I couldn't bare to see what I had believed I had done to them. That's why I was here now.

At that thought Axel grabbed me by the waist and pulled me closer to him, "No, if they blamed you they wouldn't have come for you in the first place." The smell of roses reminded me to much of Marluxia and yet, it was so befitting.

"Axel, you know," I turned to look at him I wanted to see the emeralds that fought so hard for me, "You're the only happy ending I've ever had." I watched the wind try to blow through his hair as his hat kept it from happening.

"But Demyx," He turned to me, "I only rescued the damsel," And there was that million dollar smile I longed for, "We forgot to kill the badguy."

"Well," I returned the favor with the rock-star smile I knew he waited for to long to have the pleasure of seeing, "Then our story isn't over?"

"No, it just began." I heard foot steps after a car pulled up. We both turned in unison like a dance we never had the chance to have, "Luxord, what kept you." Axel replied to the white dressed blonde. I looked and saw Xigbar waiting by the car, he waved so uninterestedly. I nodded so he knew I didn't ignore his presence.

"I've found them, we're heading back first. You need to get all of your things packed." He stepped past us, also adding flowers to the gravestones. His voice was so calm, but it had a flare to it, Marluxia had been a very good friend of his, so he too joined our cause.

"We're are we going Luxord?" I asked as we began to follow him to the car, Xigbar opened the door for Axel and I as we got in.

"Paris." Was his reply. And so that was our destination, until then I suppose, I'll just have to leave you for now.
