Catch Me When I Fall
Prologue 2: Roxas
Their steps echoed down the street as they ran.
His lungs felt like they were about to burst, his legs ached, screaming for him to stop but he couldn't. They had to find her. He had to find her. He couldn't lose another friend. Not like this.
"Hold it! Turn here!" The person on his left pulled his arm to steer him in the right direction. He stumbled but got right up in no time, brushing his blonde bangs out of his eyes.
"Are you sure Axel?" he panted.
"Yeah, positive," his friend said grimly.
They turned one more corner and froze.
Three blocked their way. All tall, even taller then Axel. But they weren't what made the two stop. It was what was behind the three that scared them, made it feel as though a knife made of ice had struck their hearts.
She was being forced into a kneeling position, someone holding her right arm and stepping on her leg so she couldn't stand while his partner mimicked the action on her left.
Behind her the person responsible held a gun pointed her head, which was facing downwards, making her raven hair hide her face.
"Xion!"
She looked up, revealing bruises on her face and a badly cut lid, her blue eyes wide in terror.
"No! Roxas, it's a tr-"
Her words were drowned out by the sound of gunfire.
