Axel could remember when he first met Roxas. Xemnas had assigned him to find a new Nobody in one of the worlds, because it was just a "hunch".
Axel took this as an excuse to go to that Twilight Town world and watch the sunset, because Axel liked the sunsets from Twilight Town. Then he would go on and find that Nobody the Superior commanded him to.
Then Roxas just fell into his life, because when Axel was at Sunset Hill, the younger Nobody looked alone.
"Do you know where I am?" Roxas asked him.
Axel replied, "You're in Twilight Town."
The redhead continued looking at the sunset.
"Rox...as," the blond said, barely above a whisper, "that voice, it said my name was Roxas."
Axel blinked, changing his point of focus from the almost-over sunset over to Roxas.
"Put your right hand over your chest; do you feel anything?"
And Roxas did so. He shook his head.
"I see...my name is Axel, commit it to memory."
"Ax...el."
"Once the sunset is over and it turns to night, I want you to come with me."
And the sunset eventually ended, and Roxas followed the strange man to Castle Oblivion.
It was there that the Superior introduced Roxas into the Organization and made it Organization XIII.
There that Roxas would follow Axel around curiously, until Roxas had discovered his weapon and was able to defend himself.
There that Axel would bring Roxas back to Twilight Town for the sunsets every evening.
Then Roxas left, turning his back on the Organization and was branded a traitor.
Axel still watched the sunsets every evening, only to feel a pain where his heart was supposed to be.
Axel even watched the sunset at the virtual Twilight Town's beach when Roxas defeated him in the virtual simulation of DiZ's computer room while badly wounded, and still felt that pain.
He felt the pain even when fading away in front of Sora – and Roxas.
