Chapter One.
Castle Oblivion.
Riku and Crystal walked up to the strange castle, they saw three black figures standing by the door, so they ran and ducked behind a jagged piece, of what looked like a piece the castle.
"What do you suppose we do?" asked Crystal.
"I dunno, I guess wait till they go in." Riku replied.
Someone stepped behind them, Riku and Crystal turned and saw a man in a black trench coat with a hood over his head so they couldn't see his face.
"Well look here, it's the same people I ran into earlier today!" said the man.
"Who are you?" asked Crystal angerly.
"Just a...well... not much of a person. But why am I talking to you guys anyway? You're trespassing here." he said.
He flung out a pair of chakrams as flames appeared around them also.
"I have to dispose of you two now. BURN BABY!" he yelled and sent two balls of fire, both of which went towards Crystal and Riku.
Crystal and Riku dodged the flames and took out their weapons, Crystal with her chakrams, and Riku with his bat wing blade. They both attacked in sync and knocked the man backwards which flipped back his hood and revealed his face. Crystal immediately stopped attacking and just stood there examining her enemy.
He had red hair that came out in spikes that kind of resembled a fire in a way. His eyes were a vibrant green, and Crystal couldn't help stare at them. His face was quite cute and a bit mature, he looked to be about 18.
"Oh well, now you guys knocked back my hood, now is that really polite?"
Crystal just kept staring. "Wow, he's really cute..."
"Who are you?" Riku asked him.
"Well, since you've seen my face." he sneered as he smoothed his hair with his hand. "The names Axel, got it memorized? Now that we are on a first name basis, would you be kind to inform me of your names and why you're here?"
"I'm Crystal, and this is Riku. We're looking for our friend Sora." Crystal blurted.
"Hm, Sora. That kind of sounds..." he stopped.
Riku looked at him. "Sounds...?"
Axel smiled. "Well, I know where your pointy-haired friend is. But I'm not telling you, so goodbye!" he ran off into the castle.
And Crystal and Riku ran in persuit.
