A boy stumbled out of a dark house, his body was coated in blood, and clutched tight in his hand was a black key blade. He had no idea what had happened, he had woken up in a bed, leather straps wrapped around his arms and his legs. The bed had been soaked with blood, which he had figured was his, but now there was no knowing he had just gotten out the best he could and had run off. 'Where…am I…' he whimpered, his leg giving out underneath him, he couldn't breath for just a moment. His mind blurred, and images of blood, death, and destruction flowed past his eyes. It was like a movie with no sound, one of those movies you wish you could forget and one you would never want to see again. But on this movie there was no way to turn it off, and get it to go to a happier moment. "LEAVE ME ALONE!" He cried, throwing the dark key blade across the empty courtyard watching it get stuck in the brick wall, the bricks cracked and began to fall away the key blade clattering to the ground. The sound echoed, causing the young boy to cover his ears and cry out in pain. The memories that flowed through his mind were getting more and more violent, the boy was just frozen in one spot looking at the key blade. "Why did I hurt them…I just wanted friends…" Tears dripped down his face, the sky darkened and the thunder roared, almost like a monster that most kids would find in there stories. He fell to his knees, curling up in the fetal position, his hands rubbing his temples, trying to get the memories to go away. In all of his pain, he couldn't hear the footsteps that walked towards him. It took him awhile to register the fact that someone was there, he shuddered, and stumbled up backing up. He bumped into someone else, he was surrounded by people in black cloaks. "Who are you…why are you here…leave me alone…" He sounded afraid, and he mentally kicked himself in the butt for the fear he was expressing. There was no point in having fear unless you really knew how to deal with it. And he was failing at keeping it hidden. The people in the black cloaks seemed to move closer to him, he had no clue who there were, but one of them had been familiar to him, at one time, and that was the one with blue hair, the x shaped mark on his face had given him away. After all he had been the only one who was not covering his face with the hood of his cloak. "So you have awoken… Vexen did mention to us you would be awakening soon, but I never thought it would have been this soon…" He looked at the others for just a moment, then his eyes trailed back down the blood covered boy. "Axel he is your problem…you wanted to save him, so you take him…" The man who had spoken turned and walked away, the rest of the people in the black cloaks except for the one that had been called Axel. When they were alone, Axel slipped the hood off , to reveal flaming red hair, and green eyes, the marks under Axel's eyes gave him away to the boy the most.
"You…are Axel…" The boy that was speaking had no idea what he was going to do, he wanted to find out who he was, but he didn't trust these people in black. He summoned the dark key blade back to his hand pointing at Axel. "What do they want from me…Tell me!" He didn't want to attack him, but if he had to, he would do it with no question about it at all. He sighed, and looked around, wondering why they had to do, and it wasn't like this man in black, would understand him at all. " Kid…calm down…We are going to help you…now what's your name…" Axel pulled out another black cloak, one that would fit the young before, they would have to get him different clothes though. The bloody ones would be taken away and burned, so no one would find them, and be able to find the boy. "Help…me…" He slipped into the black cloak that Axel had given to him, this was the first memory he mad in this world, joining the organization. The first memory that he cherished and clung to the whole time he worked for them. And now things were beginning to get to different. " Come on …Let's go…" Axel picked up the small boy walking through the dark portal that had been waiting for them. "By the way um axel…my name is Aidar…" He didn't know why they wanted him, but over time he figured he would have found out, they had to tell him why they were bringing him here. "Well Aidar you are going to enjoy staying with us…after all you will have a lot of friends, and people who will teach many things…" Aidar grinned, to him that was all he really wanted, he had never known his family, and his memories from the time when his village had a lot of people in it had vanished over his time of being asleep. 'Why are all my memories gone…do I have anything besides just this key blade and that name…' He clung to Axel, closing his eyes, he didn't know if he wanted to see anything anymore. He was just so afraid, and so worried about his life, and how much his life was going to change now that he was with the organization. And that was all he could do, to keep himself from fading. 'You are nothing to me…You filthy little boy…' A voice he could not quite remember who was, echoed through his head.
~*Scene Change {{forward about three years or more years}}*~
After all that had happened, he figured that he would have changed. But even now over all the training and all the pain he had endured, he was not that much different. His personality was a little bit different, but deep down, he felt more like he was at home, even if at times, he felt like he would never really find a home. 'I finally have a home with all these people…they may not have hearts but they do care for me…' He got up from his bed, holding the drawing he had made for Axel. It wasn't like he knew how to draw, but he had done his best to make this drawing for his father. Of course Axel wasn't his real father, and none of them were his family, but he could at least feel somewhat comfortable around them. "I wish Axel would come back…" He placed the drawing in a small folder with the other ones placing them on the table, next to Axel's bed. The one thing about these two was that even though they could be polar opposites, they had managed to share a room and not kill each other so far. "I can't wait for him to come home…" Aidar grabbed his cloak slipping it on over his white shirt, and black shorts. He was going out on a mission, and when he came back Axel was supposed to be home. At first he had looked forward to it, but now as it got closer and closer he was dreading doing this. He had only gone out by himself once, and that was a simple mission nothing more, so why did they give him a harder one, he didn't feel like he was ready for it. There was just to many thoughts going through his head. 'I wanna see Axel…' he leaned against the wall, closing his eyes, trying to think back to when him and Axel had first shared a room. He had been so young then, and even now it had never changed. Some day he knew that it was going to have to change, he couldn't be with Axel forever, that just wasn't how life worked. And he was tired of losing everything that meant anything to him.
It had happened with his parents, and all of his friends, and it had happened with his own life. He had lost himself to something he would have never really thought he could have lost himself to. He went to check on his past friends, but they didn't even seem to care that he was gone, his home had been roped off and no one was allowed to go in there. He had wanted to approach that place, but the second he had begun to, the memories of all the pain he had felt there had come back. And out of nowhere there Axel had been, taking him away from there. It was like Axel knew everything he was doing, and would always be there to save him. 'Then where is Axel now…I'm falling apart and it seems like no one cares…' He let out a bit of a pained whimper, as he pulled his hood over his face, jumping out of his window. He landed roughly on the area below him, he had seen Axel do this in the past and he decided that he should try it, even though part of him was worried about what would have become of him. But other then a few bruises, and maybe a sprained ankle he had come out of it unharmed. 'Time to go…' he raced off, heading straight for a dark portal, he had managed to learn how to use them over the time that Axel had been gone. Even though he missed Axel and wished he would come, there was just no way he could really seem to get away from it. "Don't do anything stupid Aidar…you have an obligation…get the hearts and then get out…" Evelyn's voice echoed in his mind, ever since Xemnas had been killed, she had taken over control, and now they were hunting for a way to get Xemnas to be reborn. That was what the collecting of the hearts were for, and there was nothing else that would change it. Xemnas would be reborn, and well there was nothing he could, he had to deal with it.
He sighed and went to do his mission, he had to ignore all of the happy people with there friends and everything. That of course was just not something he really wanted to have to deal with, or live with right now. "Hm…where is it…" He looked at the piece of paper in his hand, sighing just a little bit. The paper had his mission on it, so he had to look it over again. After all he had so much to work with, there was some hearts to get, a few other small objects to pick up, but no matter how much he really thought about, he had to work harder to finish this, so he would be home in time for Axel. He walked forward, pulling back quickly when he saw someone he had seen before. His friend's were showing up more and more lately, he hadn't really thought about the fact that he was going where they lived now. After all, it had been so long since he had really managed to talk to them. And he wasn't really allowed to have contact with them now. He just not the type of person to talk to people after they had hurt him like his friend's had. After all Blaze had messed up his life for him, and now he was serving Evelyn to make up for it, and find what really mattered to him.
"Let's see what to find first…" He opened up the piece of paper, he had to find a heart shaped pendant thing from a heartless, a behemoth heartless to be exact. He was just not to sure about what was going on and yet there was just something that was driving him up the wall. He had never fought a heartless before, not one like that before anyway. The last time he had done it, he had been with Axel and Axel had made sure to finish off the heartless. It was just not something he could do, or well he thought he couldn't do it, but if he worked hard enough he was sure he could have done it. There would just be quite a few little problems, if he managed to fail. And well yet he had been doing so well, he had found two of the objects they needed, Of course he had to take them but he left munny behind for them. This is where things were going to change for him.
The mission had been a success, and he had gone home only to find that Axel was nowhere to be found. He had figured that he would have been back, but there was just no way he could believe what was coming next. "Axel's gonna be delayed something came up…Aidar he said to send you now…" Evelyn put her hand on his arm. "Go pack and hurry up…they could use you…" Aidar raced off to his room without another word and began to pack. He had to help Axel, he just couldn't let him deal with it by himself. There was just no way. 'Axel…please be okay…' Aid put his bag on his back jumping out the window, he didn't bother going back to Evelyn, he knew where he was going, and she could find him no matter what he did anyway. He had to find the one person who actually cared about him, he couldn't just let Axel die, he had to do something. He stumbled forward, this was a place he had never really seen before, it was just way to odd, there was no heartless around right now. But something just didn't feel right. 'Where is everyone…Castle Oblivion is usually not this empty…' He looked around at all the destruction, he had only just noticed all of this. The heartless had to be around her somewhere, but they weren't who he was looking for. "Come on….where is he…" Aid just sighed and walked towards the castle, he had to move quickly, the organization had moved everyone away from Castle Oblivion after Xemnas had died, but now more then ever, people were coming back here. And Axel and his group had just been one of them, and now something had happened, and well Axel and them were in danger. When Aid looked up at the walls, he could see Heartless swarming down the walls, Aid had to move fast before the Heartless overwhelmed him and anyone else in here.
The heartless began to circle around Aidar, backing up when he summoned the keyblade. "Back off you stupid heartless…" He was not enjoying this, he had just wanted to find Axel, that was all he had come here for, and now he was stuck. He had to get through the heartless, and get to where they were. He looked up and saw what looked like Axel, but from this distance he couldn't tell. He slashed at the heartless moving through the swarm of them quickly before they overtook him again. He had reached where he thought he had seen Axel, and there on the ground was one of Axel's weapons which meant he had to be around here. But where was he, that was the only thought that kept going through his mind. He had to find the man who was like a father to him, even if they didn't have hearts, they were still people. "AXEL!" He saw the man laying there on the ground, heartless had done a number on him, but there seemed to be no one else around. So when Aidar raced over to him, he had expected this just to go as planned, him taking Axel back home with him, and then they would be able to go back to the life they once had. He shivered feeling something against his neck, then there was something warm dripping down the back of his neck. He didn't want to turn around, there was just to much fear that told him he shouldn't turn around, but he shoved that voice away and turned to see an image he wished he would have never seen. "It has been awhile…My son…" The man that stood before Aidar was his father, but there was just no way he could have been here. Aidar's mind couldn't comprehend what was going on here, his father had died so long ago, there was no way he could have been here now.
"Go away, you died…why the hell are you here…" Aidar put the keyblade up in front of himself, he had to protect himself, there was just no way that he could let him hurt him. He wanted to get away from everything, and just have life be him and Axel, and no one else. "You should have realized from the very beginning that I was going to find you…I made that promise before it happened…you should have remembered that…" The man approached grabbing Aidar's keyblade backing up as if it hurt him, the mere thought of touching something that was created from Aidar's heart was just not something he could live with. "I don't care…get the heck away from me…just leave us alone…you didn't care about me…and I don't want anything to do with you…" He swung the keyblade hitting his father, only to have the keyblade go right through his father. "W..what are you…" The man just laughed walking towards his son. "You knew I wouldn't come here without some sort of protection, after all I'm not really here…I have to live somehow don't I?" He swung his hand knocking Aidar back from him, the boy landed next to Axel coughing, blood dripping from his forehead. The last image that Aidar saw was Axel getting up, throwing his weapon, and the sound of a pained scream.
"Aidar…Aidar wake up…" Aidar opened his eyes, his vision clearing, Axel was leaning over him, the walls around them, were empty, no heartless were around. "W..what happened?" Aidar tried to sit up, wincing at the pain in his side. He looked around for his father, he was glad that he was gone, but what had happened, and why had he been laying here. "You passed out…he's gone Aidar…" Axel stood up, helping Aidar up as the two of them looked over the scene that awaited them. The heartless were vanishing, as if something had just wiped them all out. "They were an illusion…they weren't really here…does this mean we can go home now…" He limped falling slightly, only to be caught by Axel. Neither of them were really sure of what had happened here, after all they both had been here together and then something had happened. "Yes we are going home…This is over…" With that the two of them, walked through the dark portal. Aidar turned around just before they left, summoning the keyblade back to his hand. There was nothing here for Aidar anymore he had all he wanted, and Axel was with him right now, so that was all that mattered. Axel was more of a father to him, then his actual father was.
