I felt the corner of my mouth begin to twitch. I obviously looked like a psycho because the kid stopped smiling and slowly backed away.

Seven..Seven? Are you kidding me, seven! That's what I wanted to do, shout at this little..thing! This little..Roxas! How could you be seven, you idiot! " Roxas, how did this happen?" Yeeeep. That was sure yelling..

"What..do ya mean?"

Was this a trick? Was someone playing a horrible joke on me? I looked around the room for any sign of cameras. After a moment I noticed there wasn't any, and this was infact, real. Did Roxas not remember anything before this..accident? Does he really think he's a little boy? I mean..he IS a little boy right now, but..you get my point.

"Roxas, do you know who I am?"

He giggled and rolled his eyes. " Of course, silly! You're a clown. Anyone with eyes can see that."

I felt like I could die on the spot. A clown? Do I really look like a clown?

"You little brat! I am not a clown!"

"Then why is your hair red?" He pointed at my face and laughed a little bit more, " And you have thoes tear things under your eyes, everyone knows clowns have things painted under their eyes."

I slammed my fist on the desk besides me. " SHUT THE HELL UP! I AM NOT A FRIGGIN CLOWN!"

Oh god..Crap... I did not mean to shout, craaaap. I saw his mouth begin to tremble and his eyes grow cloudy with water.

"Rox..as?"

I let my face soften and lifted my hand from the desk. Please don't..

The tears came dripping down his cheeks, and even though I knew it was coming, his small shrieks still caught me off guard.

"Oh come on! Roxas! I'm sorry, hey.." I walked over to where he was standing, and put my hand on his shoulder..just to have it smacked away. Brat.

"Don't touch me! You are a meany face, and I hate you!" He crossed his arms, and turned his back to me.

Ouch. That one hurt. "Roxas..I'm sorry..please don't hate me..come on." I tried to make my voice sound as guilty and sorry as possible, but the runt wouldn't let me off easy.

Roxas looked over his shoulder and stuck out his lower lip. " Prove it."

I ran my fingers through my hair and let out a sigh. "Prove what?"

He narrowed his eyes and stuck his lip out further. "Prove you are sowwie!"

Aww, if he wasn't such a brat that little face of his would be cute..EW! Get a grip on yourself Ax, he's seven! Now think, what would Roxas like..Older Roxas liked..ice cream..so maybe little Roxas would like it too! Little kids always had a thing for sweets. Yeah! Perfect plan! "I'll go buy you some ice cream?"

I saw his small face light up and he whirrled around. " Really? All right!"

"On one condition, you little turd. You call me by my name!" I still wasn't over the clown thing. " Do you remember my name?"

Roxas shook his head, and looked to the floor. "No..sorry..I don't really remember anything..except my name and age.."

Right.." Axel, alright?" I leaned down and poked him on the nose. "Learn it, love it, memorize it."

He playfully smacked my finger away and nodded. " I got it memorized, Axel." He then reached forward and latched himself onto my arm. " Ice cream! Ice cream! Ice cream!"

"Okay, okay." I scooted him out of the room, and shut the door lightly behind me. Portal, need to summon a porrttaall.. "Roxas, are you afraid of the dark?"

The boy nodded quickly. " Yes, monsters live in the dark, right?" His voice was squeaky and he bit down on his lip.

"Well then close your eyes." Roxas seemed nervous, but did what he was told and shut his eyes, waiting. I opened a portal and stepped inside of it, tugging him along with me.

My tugging obviously made him open his eyes back up, because he gasped as he saw the darkness licking at his body.

"Axel!"

"Shh, don't worry kid. Monsters don't live in the dark." I placed a gloved hand on his head, and chuckled. " Only clowns."
