Disclaimer! I do NOT own any of the characters in this story besides my OC. If I did, I would be rich. Chapter 4 "What was that?" Axel asked me. "The truth," I said. And, it was the truth. I swore I would protect the organization with my life, and that's exactly what I'm going to do. Turning away from Axel, I sat down on the edge of my bed as Ash jumped on my lap. I stroked her beautiful fur a few times before setting her down. "Axel, do me a favor and look after Ash while I run some errands?" He nodded and walked towards me. "Whatever those errands are, be careful. I don't want to lose you," he said and kissed me on the cheek. I nodded and ran out of the room. I was going to the place I could relax, besides the library. I would go there, but Zexion was normally too busy at this time of day. It seemed like I was walking forever until I finally reached the door that read "XI". Slowly, I knocked on the door and was quickly answered. "Who is it?" Marluxia asked from the other side. "Eirxrol," I said, "may I come in?" The door flew open and the scent of flowers filled the air. "Of course, come on in," Marluxia said sweetly as I stepped in. "Can you guess why I'm here?" I asked, happily. "Hmmm," Marluxia stood in thought, "to visit your garden?" "Coooorrreeeeecccccttttt!" I exclaimed, making a game show sound effect. He gave a low chuckle and led me to where every member's gardens were. Yes, every member has a garden. You see, when the organization was first formed, Marly made every member a small garden. Of course, none of them even care about theirs. They were all unkept, even though Marluxia is the one that takes care of them. I guess he stopped trying. I, on the other hand, love flowers. My garden was so beautiful, with roses beside of dasies and tulips. "You've taken great care of it!" I said. "It's nothing much. Water daily and ferilize," I nodded and approached my favorite flower. It was a rose, of course, but it was black with red thorns. It was a perfectly made rose, and one of the most beautiful I've ever seen. After staring at it for a long time, I saw a gloved hand reach out and pull it from the ground. I looked at Marluxia and he just smiled. "Here," he said, handing me the rose,"you can have it." I took the flower and thanked him greatly. He hugged me and I left, deciding to go back to my room and call it a day. After the now short walk, I approached my door and opened it. I saw Axel sitting on my bed, petting Ash and smiling. Seeing that, I smiled as well. "Aww looks like you two are getting along," I said. Axel looked at me a smiled wider, patting the space beside him. I walked over to the bad and sat. But as soon as I did that, I fell back and everything went black. You don't belong. There's nothing you can do but watch. Your precious organization will soon cease to exist. Enjoy your last days with them. "E! E, please! Wake up! I can't lose you!" I then shot up, looking at Axel with tears in my eyes, only to find he was crying, as well. "Axel!" I yelled and hugged him tightly. He returned the favor. "E, I was so worried! I thought I lost you!" That was the moment I remebered my "dream". That only made me cry harder into Axel's shoulder. He rubbed my back and sushed me. "Shhhh. It's okay, you're okay, I'm okay," he assured me. No, I thought, we aren't. I decided not to talk about it, unless I really had to. I didn't know when or where that would be, but, nonetheless, I was prepared. I was ready to fight fot my friends, my family. I was ready to explain this to them. I was ready for anything. Except losing the people I cared for the most. There we go! Another short chapter, but they'll be longer in the future, I promise!
