I edited a few things, reread chapter 1. This chapter is dialog heavy, sorry in advance.
It was dusk by the time Roxas started to walk home, a bag of Axel's belongings strewn haphazardly over his shoulder. He noticed he was alone, the streets abandoned. A collection of discouraging thoughts formed in his mind, 'I'm just a part of Sora, I'm not even a person! Is this why I'm so fuckin' empty? Maybe I should end it and just be done with this bullshit.'
Roxas tried to force the dark thoughts away when he abruptly collided with someone. Roxas stared up into a single bright golden eye.
"Hey, kitten." Xigbar chuckled "You look terrified!"
"If you want to kill me then kill me already!" Roxas yelled angrily, "I hate living so just get it over with!"
"As if! I'm here for a reason." Xigbar replied with a venomous smirk, "I can get rid of those trespassing thoughts if you'd like."
"How?" Roxas asked, startled, "Get rid of them, please, I can't stand it anymore!"
"I was Xehanort's right hand, I was aware of it. Leave your bag here," Xigbar said, "we need them to believe I've kidnapped you." Roxas complied with Xigbar's will.
Roxas nodded as he slipped a note in amongst the clothing in Axel's bag. "Okay, I'm ready."
Xigbar gazed down at the petite man, laughing coldly "Thank you for choosing the easy way."
Xigbar's expression changed drastically, Roxas was suddenly shoved forcefully against a brick wall. He cried out in pain, Xigbar placed his hand against Roxas' throat. He clawed at the graying man's gloved fingers.
"Why?" Roxas whispered noiselessly, tears forming in his eyes as he lost consciousness.
"Glad you made it convincing kid." Xigbar sighed, slightly disappointed. He grabbed the tiny man, slinging him over his shoulder. They were engulfed by the shadowy portal.
=~ Roxas' Apartment ~=
Axel had spent the majority of the day cleaning his room. He was exhausted, tiredly occupying one of the plush chairs in the living room. He practically jumped out of his skin when there was a loud knock on the door.
"Sora? Riku?" Axel asked, leading them to a plush sofa, "Do you need something?"
"Do you know where Roxas is?" Riku asked as Sora cuddled closer to the older man. Sora's eyes were red and puffy. The smaller man was clutching onto a bag.
"I haven't seen him since he left this morning," Axel answered, perplexed. "He was getting me some stuff."
"You haven't seen him since?" Riku asked, quizzically.
"No, Is he okay?" A slight panic-filled Axel
"We have no idea, Sora's connection to Roxas is hazy," Riku answered, assuming Axel knew about their link.
"A psychic link?" He asked, "He never said anything about it."
"That's normal, He was ashamed of our connection," Sora muttered, softly
"Okay? Do you know what happened?" Axel asked
"Sora thinks The Organization might have kidnapped him," Riku explained, "He saw Xigbar before he lost the connection with Roxas."
"That explains why you can't contact him now. The Organization used to have Roxas under several types of medications to keep him out." Axel explained, "They probably found out which of those medications were working by now."
"How the hell do you know that? Are you still working for them?" Sora asked with an accusative tone
"I irradicated people for them," Axel muttered, coldly, "do you honestly believe I wasn't aware of the inner working of that hell hole? I get that you're suspicious of me, you have every right to be, but you have to know that I would never purposely hurt Roxas."
"Fair enough," Riku paused, "so when did you fall for him?"
"Is it that obvious?" Axel's face went almost as red as his hair, "Probably sometime during our time in The Organization together, sometime before I left for Castle Oblivion."
"You know,-" Riku clasped his hand over Sora's mouth
"He doesn't need to know yet. You have no right to tell him that" Riku hissed in the smaller man's ear
"Then," Axel cleared his throat, "do you guys need anything else?"
"You told us everything we needed to know," Riku explained, "we should be heading out."
"Oh right!" Sora handed the bag to Axel, "We found it in the alley between our apartment buildings."
"Uh thank you?" Axel muttered, perplexed, as he took the bag into his arms.
After they left, Axel unzipped the bag, skimming through the contents.
Everything he asked for was in the bag. They were all freshly washed, a piece of paper among the cloth caught Axel's eye. A handwritten note, Roxas' handwriting. The letters looked panicked.
Axel,
I'm sorry, Xigbar gave me an offer I can not refuse.
All I want is the possibility to get Sora out of my head.
I know I'm an idiot for making this choice
I'll probably be back in a few weeks, maybe a few months.
I will miss you, and I love you.
Roxas
P.S. please don't tell Soriku
Axel reread the note countless times, each time he read he became more and more frustrated.
He took a quick shower and lied on Roxas' bed, the scent was overwhelming, making it seem that Roxas hadn't abandoned him. He slowly drifted off into a dreamless sleep but after a few hours, his phone rang.
"Hello?" He asked into the receiver
"Hello", a non-descript voice replied, "I have something, someone rather, you want."
