Time: Two or so Centuries ago.

A/N: Dedicated to everyone who loved The Holy Smirk and especially Neferet10210, because it was requested! Yay! So if you like this, send your thanks.
A little earlier then expected, because I've been mean to you guys and haven't updated anything yet. Gomen.
This is a new format for the story, get used to it, since it's going to continue on this way.
This is my December, this is my time of the year, this is my December, this is all so clear.
Episode One:
Casa-Rover?
"Remind me again why we're doing this?" Axel asked his blonde counterpart.
"Just shut up, it's your fault we got into this big mess anyways."
We meet our two young hero's as they wander down the path from Noivilbo on their new journey.
"It's not like they have any proof that I took those meat rolls!"
"Axel, if you say one more word, I swear I will cut you."
"Awe, come on Rox, you know I'm innocent don't you?"
Roxas stopped in his tracks from walking down the beaten path to round on his partner. Shaking a small fist at the red head he glowered, as only Roxas could.
"Look here, I know for certain that you took those meat rolls from the cook, there is no doubt in my mind. And on top of that, it's your fault that we now have to do messenger work while everyone else gets special lessons from the Castle XIII Guards while they're here! Why can't you just keep your piggish ways to yourself?"
Throughout this whole tirade Roxas had repeatedly poked Axel square in the middle of his chest, making the taller boy back up a few paces until his back ended up against a tree trunk.
"Hey hey, Rox, come on, cut me a little slack would ya? Besides, the meat rolls weren't for me. Do you really think I'm that much of a pig?"
"You're asking me that question? Wasn't it you that ate both your own dinner AND mine last night?"
Axel grinned sheepishly and Roxas sighed. Sometimes he felt like such a parent. It had only been one month since he had met Axel and Roxas would swear that Axel would forget to tie his hose on in the morning if he didn't remind him. Roxas had to admit, though, that where he was Axel's reminder-er, Axel was his complete support, in every sense of the word. Without Axel, he wouldn't be able to make it through all the tough stuff.
So Roxas's sigh soon turned into a smirk, and he punched Axel lightly in the arm. "Alright, weirdo, I'm sorry I said that I didn't believe you."
Axel grinned and Roxas's heart flopped over in the strange ways that it had been doing recently. He just ignored it and smiled though, like he always did. He refused to think that he was sick in any way shape or form.
For Axel, there was really nothing that could go wrong. Sure, he thought that the meals that he was fed were meager helpings at best. Sure, he was continuously in trouble (and dragging Roxas along with him.) Sure, he thought that the classes were boring, but he had no regrets, and was wanting for nothing. It was all thanks to that blushing blonde too.
Axel had had a few friends, yeah, but none as close as Roxas was to him. In the few weeks that he had known the blonde fire ball, they had become fast friends. In fact, Axel was almost positive that Roxas knew more about him then he knew about himself. And they could relate in almost all things. For lack of better terms, Roxas really. . . Completed him. Yeah.
Roxas snapped his fingers a few times in front of Axel's face and it brought the red head out of his musings.
"Hm?" Axel asked, blinking once or twice.
"I said, if you didn't take the rolls for yourself, who were they for?"
Axel smiled sheepishly and ran his fingers through his red spikes in a way that Roxas knew was trouble.
"Oh god Axel, what have you done now?"
Turning, Axel began to dig through the large canvas bag that held their supplies and the messages they were to deliver. Roxas's eyes went wide as he heard a soft yipping sound.
"You didn't. . ."
But as his face was enthusiastically licked by the ugliest puppy he had ever seen, Roxas was quite adamantly informed that Axel had.
To be continued. . . soon.
Please read and review.
