A/N:

Hello hello, reviewers!

Well, like promised, I updated this week. :D

I might do another update after this, so look out for it!

Axel had been pacing the room as Demyx and Yukia sang together before leaving for CO. He was worried about something- that was obvious to her. Did he loose a Chakram or something?

"A…Axel. What are you so concerned about?" her voice stopped and cracked the lyrics to their song, and instead focused on interrogating Axel.

"Roxas…"

Yukia blinked. Roxas? I haven't seen him in a while…did something happen to him?

Axel turned and left the room abruptly, while Lexaus came in, looking stern [and manly] as ever. Yukia blinked as Demyx cheered a greeting, and asked if he knew what was wrong with Axel.

He shook his head, and Yukia sighed. He never talks-

Her thoughts were cut short as he spoke, his deep voice reverberate in the room.

"Roxas left the Organization."

[TimeSkip: Thirty minutes]

Yukia looked around her at Axel and Demyx. Demyx had lost his previous excitement, and was now complaining of sore feet. Axel was way too quiet for her comfort, and she looked at her feet. They were walking through CO, searching for nothing in particular.

"Axel..." Yukia looked up at the pyro. "We can find Vexen, right?"

Axel smiled at patted her head. "Of course, Yukia. We'll find him for you- so don't worry too much. Loosen up!"

Yukia smiled and blushed lightly.

Demyx whined and groaned as his feet felt raw, and he stopped walking.

"Can't we take a break, Axel?" he tugged on the pyro's sleeve. "Please?"

Axel scoffed and pulled the water wielder's hand off him. "Why? We won't get our mission done [not to mention find my Roxy] if we stop moving."

"B-but…" Demyx cried. "I'm sooooo tirrrreddd!!!"

Yukia laughed lightly as she watched the two males argue. She stopped walking for a moment, falling behind as she tried to think of something…

What was I thinking of just now?

She shook her head as the guy's called out for her to hurry up, in which she just jogged to where they were.

It probably was nothing too important; otherwise I would remember, right?

[TimeSkip: Two hours]

How long have we been wandering like this?

Demyx had long since left CO, since Axel said that was a part of his mission. She had believed him, and had continued to follow his lead. Now, she was wondering if she could trust Axel.

Should I try to run? No, that's something Demyx would do… then what? If I ran on my own, I wouldn't be able to get back to the Castle…

Axel had stopped suddenly, and Yukia crashed into his back, falling to the ground. When she got up, she looked around, and then spotted someone.

Spotted someone with the cloak.

Spotted someone with pink hair.

"Why, hello there Yukia. I didn't know you were coming here."

Yukia's eyes widened, looking at the man as if he weren't real.

'The man'? I know his name… what was it? Mar… Mar… Mar-something!!

Yukia tried to search her thoughts for a familiar name, when a blonde girl came up behind the man.

"Oh, it's her," the lady said, voice laced with anger and something similar to poison. "Can we kill her off? She's no use to us, Marly."

Marly…? That didn't sound right… a nickname, maybe?

"Come now, Larx. We shouldn't forget the leverage we have on him if we keep her alive a little longer."

Axel had long since walked over to where they were and joined them.

I-I don't understand… who's 'him'?

Yukia gripped her head, feeling the imminent headache coming on.

A portal opened up near her. "Go." Marly said, pointing to the mass of black and purple swirls.

"W-where does it lead…?"

He smiled one of his most fake smiles, and then said "To Vexen."

She immediately ran to the portal, and had been gone at the mere mention of his name.

"Axel… you know what to do. Kill the traitor."

Axel only nodded, and went to the same place she was- with Vexen and Riku – to kill off the man.

Yukia had run through the portal without thinking, but now her brain started to work. She was in a forest-y type place, near what looked to be an abandoned castle. As she got closer, she could see two figures chatting fervently. When she approached them, she could see silver and faded blonde hair.

Her face lit up, and she sprinted towards the two, being completely unaware of the events about to take place.

"V-Vexen! Repliku!!"

Yukia had run up to the silver-haired-teen and hugged him from behind.

"I was so worried, I thought I lost you both… forever…?"

Only when the boy turned around she realized she had the Original, not the Replica.

Vexen grunted, surprised that she was there. Even more surprised when she hugged Riku, the boy he'd made the replica of.

That's probably the reason she hugged him in the first place, acting on emotions.

Riku had shoved her away violently, and made to hit her.

Vexen stepped in and pulled Yukia out, so she wouldn't get hurt.

"V-Vexen! What… where… I think something's wrong…" Yukia gripped onto his coat, blinking at Riku.

"This… has nothing to do with you, Yukia."

Yukia turned to see Axel, with Riku next to him, and told her "Step away from Vexen."

She shook her head violently, and gripped tighter onto him.

Axel then walked over to grab her, pulling her off the Chilly Acedemic.

Then, with no hesitation, he said "Traitor."

Vexen was lit aflame, while Yukia just stood there and watched.

A/N:

HOSHIT WOULD YA LOOKIT? VEXEN WENT BYE-BYE.

Well, there goes the Organization Arc… next up, the Sora Arc-!!

If this made you unhappy, I'm sorry, but it had t be done. I kept on putting it off. He was actually supposed to die in the last chapter, but I spared him until his final appearance here.

WHOO BETRAYAL.

I'm really excited to see what you have to say this time, reviewers ;3
