Hey hey people! It's me again, with the third chapter of this story. I'll try to make this story better, but that's why I need reviews! Please, I need some help! Well, thanks for actually making it this far.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Roxas pondered the situation in Axel's quarters. It had a rather clear view of the moon named Kingdom Hearts. He was given a black cloak like Axel's, and given the title of being Number XIII. The Organization is now called Organization XIII. Maybe Organization XII doesn't cut it. He remembered that conversation with Xemnas…
Flashback:
"Welcome to the Organization…Number XIII."
Xemnas reached his arm out and a cloud of darkness enveloped it. It soon faded to reveal a black cloak just like Axel's.
"I believe this is your size, Roxas," Xemnas said.
"Thanks," Roxas said as he took it. It was his size. A perfect fit.
"Roxas, you'll need your own quarters. We'll rearrange the Proof of Existence so you can have a room to yourself," Xemnas continued.
"Hmm, thanks again," was Roxas' oh so boring reply.
"You are dismissed, you can just stay with Axel for the time being. Unless Axel has something against that?"
"Not at all," Axel said.
They watched as Roxas took his leave. Xemnas turned to Axel.
"Inform the others for a group gathering. Don't include Roxas, however. He won't need to know of the situation…yet."
End Flashback…Roxas, of course, didn't know of the meeting. So he sat alone in Axel's room and gazed at Kingdom Hearts. It made him feel warm. Roxas then heard the portal open.
Flashback; The MeetingAxel gathered the members. They were seated in the throne room, which now had a thirteenth throne, currently empty. The members of the Organization wondered what was the topic, and Xemnas left them no time to think on it.
"We will discuss the recruit of our newest comrade, Roxas. He will assume the position as Number XIII. If my assumption is correct, his Other is none other than the Keybearer."
This sparked everybody's attention. Certain sounds containing interest are heard.
"As of now, we have no way as to knowing for certain other than the fact he has no memories of his past life. Therefore, we will present him with a challenge. A battle challenge. He will fight one of you to test his ability. If he can draw out the Keyblade, then we are certain he is the Keyblade Master's Other."
"If a fight's what you're going to give him, let me to fight him," said a member.
" Very well, you seem best suited for the task. We'll leave it all to you. I shall inform Roxas in the morning. Meeting adjourned."
End FlashbackAxel stepped out of the blue portal that links their rooms to the Proof of Existence. His mind seemed to go into outer space. Roxas didn't want to bother him. Axel just looked into Kingdom Hearts, as if trying to burn it through an iron gaze. For a few moments, Axel was silent, then started speaking.
"You should get some rest. You'll have a big day tomorrow, Roxas."
"What? Is there an initiation?"
"Something like that. Go to a world and rest for the night. It's practically impossible to sleep here due to no beds. I'll have Xemnas work on that. I think I know where you have to go," Axel stated. "Follow me."
Axel opened a dark gate, and they left The World That Never Was. They landed in a sort of orange brown town. Roxas just looked around.
"What is this place?" he asked.
"Twilight Town. I think you'll like it here. But you have to take off the cloak. You shouldn't let people know you're from the Organization, or Organization XIII."
"Alright," Roxas said. "Where do I stay?"
"Anywhere, just don't make any friends here."
"Okay then. A motel sound fine?" Roxas asked.
"Okay. Here's some munny for your expenses," Axel said as he handed Roxas 300 munny.
"Thanks, Axel."
The next day:
"Ugh…"
Roxas awoke from deep slumber to find Axel standing over him.
"Time to go, buddy."
"Aw, man!" Roxas pouted. He was sleeping very well.
"C'mon!" Axel seemed somewhat excited.
They left for The World That Never Was, where Roxas put on his cloak.
"Roxas, time to put your abilities to the test," Xemnas said. "You'll fight another member of the Organization. But first, meet the rest of Organization XIII."
He walked up to a man with a cross shaped scar and long blue hair holding a claymore.
"Saïx," he said emotionlessly.
"Zexion," Number VI said equally emotionally as Saïx, who appears to be Number VII. Zexion had long silver-blue hair that covers his right eye. He didn't hold a weapon.
"My name is Lexaeus," a very large and muscular figure with short orange hair said. He was obviously Number V, and had a tomahawk.
"Hello, my name is Vexen," Number IV said. He had a blue shield and long dirty blonde hair.
"I'm Xaldin." Number III seemed to be floating slightly with six lances; three in his hands and three are hovering.
"Xigbar. I finally get to meet you, kid." This one had a black and gray ponytail and was holding two guns. He seemed old, with an eye patch and a scar across his face.
"Now, you will be fighting a member that we have chosen. Every member put his or her hoods up. Your opponent will be…"
"Me."
Roxas turned around. Facing him was none other than Axel. (Surprised? No, I didn't think so)
"Come on, show me what you got, Roxas!"
"What, I can't fight you!" Roxas was practically shivering.
"Oh, come on! This is your initiation! Think of it as a test." Upon saying that, Axel's chakrams appeared by his side.
'How'd he do that!' Roxas thought.
"Here I come!" Axel dashed after Roxas at blazing speed. (Again, pun not intended)
"AAHHH!" Roxas screamed, partly because of Axel's speed, and partly because he was unarmed.
Roxas dodged a horizontal slash by backstepping, then a vertical one by a sidestep. Roxas didn't even know he was this fast! He jumped back, and Axel ignited the chakrams.
"What the…how on earth do you do that!" Roxas was amazed. Axel controlled the power of fire at will! Why didn't he tell him!
"I forgot to mention. All the members in the Organization control a particular element. Remember Demyx and his music?" Axel explained.
FlashbackThey entered, and the first thing the two noticed was that the place was flooded with water! Someone was playing an instrument in the middle, and the water ebbed and flowed to the music.
End Flashback"Water…" Roxas muttered. Demyx grinned at this.
"That's right! And I'm gonna get you! Got it memorized!"
"Yaah!" Roxas dodged swipe after flaming swipe until his left arm got hit. It burned his skin very thoroughly, and he jumped back clutching his arm. Roxas felt like he was dying, but there was a light that beckoned him on. Suddenly, a flash of light materialized in his right hand. He saw it resembled a sword…and it was shaped like a…
"The Keyblade!" Xemnas uttered.
