Aw, thank you so much for all the reviews! it means a lot!
"Seriously partner, are you SURE you're feeling okay?" asked the exhausted Rude.
"No Rude, I'm NOT, I just switched bodies with a drunk who can't even run with his STICK without hitting someone in the face," groaned the depressed Axel.
"What? How could you switch bodies? That's it Reno, I'm gonna have to tell Rufus about this, and you can take a break for a while." said Rude.
"Okay...but it won't do any good," sighed Axel.
When they got back to HQ, Axel slumped to his room, missing his friends, his fire, AND his life.
Oh, c'mon Axel, this could be good for you, look on the bright side..
"How can I look on the bright side at a time like this?" exclaimed Axel.
Well..you ARE whole now..
"What do you me-" Axel thought for a moment, then realized. "I..I have a heart now!" he gasped. He put his hand on his chest to prove this exciting news, sure enough, he felt a Bu-thump bu-thump
"YES! OH YEAH! WHY DIDN'T I SEE IT BEFORE?" he screamed happily, and bounced out the door to his startled comrades, Tseng, Elena, Rude, and Rufus.
"HEY GUYS GUESS WHAT? I HAVE A HEART NOW!" he shouted at the top of his lungs, like it was the most exciting news in the world. He laughed and ran out the door, leaving his comrades looking very confused indeed.
"See, I told you he's ill," replied Rude.
The five, Sora, Donald, Goofy, Roxas, and "Reno" sat in the train quietly.
Reno, who was still freaked out about the talking animals thing, stared at Goofy and Donald shockingly. Donald rolled his eyes, getting annoyed at how Axel had totally lost it. Roxas was concerned for his friend, who usually had all the answers and was cool and collected. Now, it was as if he totally lost his mind! Did the heartless brainwash him or something? All he knew was that he had to figure this out by asking Yen Sid the magician.
The train arrived at a, well what seemed to be a floating island with a tall castle on it. Reno stumbled out the train, feeling dizzy and confused at how this castle was on a floating island.
They walked inside, and paced up the large series of steps before they reached the magician's room. Reno carefully opened the door, just waiting for something to jump on him. He sighed and walked into the room where a man with a long beard and tall hat sat at a desk with many books.
"Why hello, what a pleasant surprise, Sora, Roxas, Donald, Goofy, and Axel" smiled the magician.
The four of them bowed, but Reno, unsure of what to do, just stood there awkwardly.
"Axel! Where are your manners!" quacked Donald.
"It's quite alright Donald, I can already sense something wrong within Axel," stated Yen Sid.
"Yes! Yes there is! Finally someone understands!" exclaimed Reno.
The four looked up at him, confused, Yen Sid nodded.
"Tell me what has happened," he said calmly.
Reno heaved a big sigh, then started, "Okay, I'm not really Axel, I'm Reno, and yes, we do look a LOT alike, but we're from totally different worlds and I just stopped at Twilight Town because I'm part of a group that gets rid of bad guys and stuff. So anyway, I met Axel and we didn't really "get along" too well then there was this huge white flash then I woke up as Axel!" he panted.
Sora, Donald, and Goofy stared in disbelief, Roxas seemed to ponder this, Yen Sid nodded again.
"Yes, I could sense that you were not Axel..well, until we find him, you must learn how to defend yourself with Axel's abilities." he suddenly made the two chakrams appear in Reno's hands.
"You mean I get to control fire now? Cool!" exclaimed Reno, This is gonna be good..
Axel walked happily along the city streets of Midgar, breaking into a skip every so often. He had a heart now! He could finally feel emotions! So what if he had a crappy stick as a weapon? As long as he had a heart was all that mattered.
"Hey Reno, what are you so happy about?" asked an un-familiar voice.
Axel turned around, standing behind him was a pretty girl with amber eyes and long black hair with a black tanktop and pants on. She smiled knowingly at him. "Did you get the day off?"
Axel hesitated, who was this hot chic? "Uh...yeah,"
She laughed "Well, c'mon and hang out with me and Yuffie, Cloud will be here too!" she grabbed his arm and playfully pulled him to a café.
Wow..Reno gets to hang out with these hot babes every day? I should switch bodies more often!
Axel smiled and decided to "play the part" as Reno. Oh, this would be fun.
Are Reno and Axel gonna screw up eachother's lives? Will Axel flirt with Tifa? Will Reno burn down the place? Will they ever be the same again? Stay tuned to find out!
