During KH2 a while before Sora sees King Mickey at Hollow Bastion.

And when I say Rikku I didn't make a typo. I do mean Rikku the from Hollow Bastion not Sora's friend Riku.

/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/- Fiery Fairy -/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/

"Wheee!" Rikku merrily looped through the air, easily avoiding a hand that was irritably swatted at her. The hand belonged to a strange red haired person who did have pretty good aim but obviously wasn't used to trying to swat down fairies that were probably only four or so inches tall. But Rikku was pretty well accustomed to swerving around to avoid getting hit.

"When are you going to call it a day?" Axel asked exasperated as he attempted to knock her away yet again just like he had been trying to do for the past five or more minutes. He would personally make sure that the Superior would hear his complaints about this. The Superior had sent him here when he heard that the 'Hollow Bastion Restoration Committee' might have known something about the King Mickey and so he sent Axel to investigate. Well it's pretty hard to investigate anything if you have a fairy zipping around your head and talking so fast that you can't understand any of what she's saying. Axel could have sworn that he heard her mention 'treasure' a few times though...

"Why? Aren't you having fun?" She stopped in front of his face for a few seconds and grinned before swooping out to the left and doing a few random loops in the air.

"I'd be having more fun if you'd just leave me alone and I could get on with my mission." Axel growled through clenched teeth.

"Mission?... Wait till I tell Maleficent! There's someone here being suspicious and he's on a mission too!" She crowed and twirled around gleefully.

Axel blinked. Maleficent? Wow. Maleficent must have been getting pretty desperate if she had a little hyper fairy working for her... "How am I being suspicious?"

"Because because because!" She screeched. "You're wearing a long mysterious black coat and your green eyes have a devious glint in them." She hovered in front of his face again and Axel saw that she had green eyes too. Strangely though they had what looked like a swirl in them starting from the pupil and going out from there. It kind of reminded him of those weird fake glasses that had the black and white swirls on them...

Axel didn't reply as she continued talking but at least twirled backwards so that she wasn't right up in his face anymore but still hovered in front of him. "So what's your name?"

"My name's Axel. A-X-E-L. Got it memorized?"

She grinned at him. "Sure do! My name's Rikku!"

Axel watched with his mouth hanging open as she did a few more loops in the air. Did she just say Riku? Riku, the silver haired Keyblade master turned into a fairy? And with a huge personality difference... Not to mention a sex change too.

"Riku? How...?" He paused for a moment and came up with only one conclusion that seemed even slightly logical. "How do you spell your name?"

She stopped looping in the air and looked at him strangely. "My name? Rikku? R-I-K-K-U..." She paused for a moment and grinned devilishly. "Got it memorized?" Axel glared as she stole his line, and she cackled evilly.

...Well, at least Axel knew that Riku didn't somehow turn into a hyper active fairy. That was one less thing to have to report to the Superior...

She interrupted his thoughts in a high-pitched voice asking, "So what's your mission anyway?"

"What's it to you?"

She shrugged. "Dunno. Maybe I could help. It's getting pretty boring around here with both Yunie and Paine gone."

"Who are they?"

"They're my two other friends in our group the Gullwings! But nooo, Maleficent went and made them follow these two people from the Hollow Bastion Restoration Committee who were sent out to see if some rumors about some mouse being here on this world. What's the big deal? I see mice around here everyday! But anyways, do I even need to bother to say that Maleficent decided to keep me here in case something else comes up? And it's just been sooo boring! Until you came here that is." She breathed in deeply since she hadn't breathed at all while saying all that.

Axel blinked again. Wow, Rikku had just told him all that he would probably be expected to know for his mission. The Restoration Committee had apparently heard that King Mickey might be somewhere around Hollow Bastion. Now his mission was complete and he wouldn't have to spend hours talking to a hyperactive fairy all day.

"Well, sorry to burst you bubble Rikku, but I've got to go."

"Whaaaaat? C'mon! What about... What about your mission?" She whined.

"You already told me everything that I needed for it."

"Aw, you've got to be kidding!..." She sighed. "Well you had better come back again! Without Yunie and Paine or you I might die of boredom around here!"

"... Somehow I think you'll do fine on your own." With how much she seemed to love to talk she could probably have an extensive one-sided conversation with a wall.

"I will not! And if you don't come back, maybe I'll go and find you!" She smirked and flew up really close to his face again. This time she was close enough though that he had to look at her almost cross-eyed.

Axel was about to reply but Rikku burst out laughing and fluttered back a few inches. "You look really funny with your eyes like that!" Axel rolled his eyes at the reference to how he had been crossing his eyes to look at her, and Rikku continued laughing.

As soon as she stopped laughing she spoke again.

"Just be sure to come back okay?"

She smiled and gave a slight wave before disappearing in a spark of light.

It would never work out since she's a fairy and all but it's still fun to write. XD

And for the record, I've never played FFX. I just went by how Rikku seemed in Kingdom Hearts II and by what I randomly gather up throughout the internet.

And did you know that in the Kingdom Hearts section where you can pick which characters you want to read stories for there isn't one for Rikku. There's one for Yuna and Paine but not Rikku...

Disclaimer: I don't own Axel, Rikku, or anything else Kingdom Hearts related.

O.O Ack. Eighteen requests. With how many requests I have you'd think that I should be able to update more often than once per week... But I can't. Sorry. XD

Which, by the way, sorry for not updating Wednesday like how I said I would. The only time that day that I could have posted it up was like... near midnight. -blink-

Anyways...

The new requests that I got were Xigbar x Elizabeth, Fuu x Zexion, Xemnas x Naminé, Marluxia x Larxene, and Demyx x Axel.

I have kind of vague ideas for the Xemnas x Naminé and the Marluxia x Larxene but I haven't gotten very far with the others yet. I know I could at least get an idea going if I tried though. Especially since the Demyx x Axel is just a friendship. -nods-

Anyways...

I may or may not update next week. But most likely I will so don't worry too much...

The next chapter might be Xemnas x Naminé or Marluxia x Larxene. Maybe Xigbar x Elizabeth.

Please review!
