Sorry it took so long everyone! I was busy

Axel who had hated this "rod" before, seemed to like it as he slashed at this silver-haired trio.

Yuffie backflipped and threw her ninja stars at Yazoo, who tried to dodge and shoot his gun at the same time.

Tifa was on a fist-to-fist rampage with Loz, and Cloud was slashing hard with his buster sword at Kadaj.

Axel (as Reno) was kind of in the middle of this showdown, and just fought whoever was nearest to him or was trying to kill him.

After a few more painful minutes, the silver-haired trio retreated, but leaving a cloud of black dust behind them. The four, Axel, Tifa, Yuffie, and Cloud, looked at eachother.

"Well, I guess that's that!" Yuffie said cheerfully.

Cloud wasn't so sure "We shouldn't of let them get away," he huffed.

"Aw, cheer up Cloud! We did win!" Tifa reassured him.

"Yeah Rox-I mean Cloud! Lighten up!" Axel smirked.

Cloud shook his head slightly, and walked away, Tifa sighed "He hasn't been himself lately,"

"So I noticed," muttered Axel.

"He has a good reason to though," sighed Yuffie.

"What do you mean?" asked Axel.

"He has Geostigma, it's that horrible disease people have been getting, he wants to stop Kadaj but he lost faith in himself," Tifa explained.

Axel nodded solemnly, this guy seemed to have it hard.

"And there's the whole thing with Aeris.." Yuffie sighed again.

"Girlfriend problems?" asked Axel.

"In a way, but it's more of a love-loss problem..long story," Tifa muttered, she seemed to be more saddened by this one.

"I understand, no need to tell me...I better get back to HQ," Axel grumbled, then left, he was starting to miss his former life..

"So..uh, remind me again what heartless are?" shrieked Reno as he stumbled while the gummi ship was shaking.

"Let's just say they're a certain type of bad guys," grumbled Sora as he steered the ship hastily.

"Yeah, heart-stealin bad guys!" Goofy explained while ducking behind the chair.

"WATCH OUT!" screamed Donald as he saw a huge multi-colored portal emerge in front of them, getting ready to suck up whoever came near.

"Too late!" shouted Sora as the portal swallowed them inside.

Reno felt like he was on a roller-coaster that went in all directions but ten times as fast.

Note to self: NEVER TRAVEL IN SPACE AGAIN!

Axel sighed and stepped through the HQ's doors, he was tired, bored, and hungry. His fellow members probably thought he was high or on crack from the previous events, but he didn't care.

He slumped into the kitchen and grabbed a bag of chips and disappeared into his room.

He was just getting comfortable on his bed when someone knocked on the door, he sighed, It's probably Rufus firing me he hastily opened it.

It was Kadaj.

-GASP- the suspense of it all!
