Deathly Weather:

Storm at the Sea

Demyx had finally got both of his friends for a boat ride. The Nocturne was lying on the back of the small boat while Roxas was on the other end of it. Axel was sitting in middle and occasionally rowed the boat a little. For once Demyx didn't really mind that his friends were fishing.

Demyx sat up and glanced around. He noticed the dark clouds and shrugged. "Should we head back?" Roxas questioned little worriedly. He had also noticed the clouds. Demyx shook his head.

"It'll go past. Doesn't come this far." Demyx replied. Roxas nodded. Axel glanced at the clouds and shrugged. If Demyx told it to go far away from them, then there was nothing to worry about.

It didn't take long before the waves became bigger. Demyx sat up and looked at the clouds again. He touched to the sea for a while but then shrugged. "Just waves, nothing bad." Demyx replied when he noticed the little worried looks on his friends´ faces. "The storm won't hit us." He stated and lay back down. Axel shrugged.

"If you say so…" He whispered and glanced at the dark clouds little worried. Roxas shrugged and tried to calm down too. Suddenly there was a flash of lighting which jolted all of them out of their thoughts. "Um… Demyx?" Axel questioned worriedly.

Demyx frowned and watched the dark clouds. "It shouldn't come here…" He whispered and touched the water again. He closed his eyes to take a fast conversation with the ocean. "It won't hit us… At least that's what I'm told…" He explained. Axel gulped but nodded.

"Okay… I trust you on this then…" He whispered varying and glanced at Roxas.

"I guess Demyx knows what to do… Right?" The young Keyblader replied and looked at Demyx. The Nocturne nodded and lay back on the boat but it was clear that he wasn't relaxed anymore.

Suddenly the dark clouds were right over them and the wind picked up. The waves became bigger and suddenly the three Nobodies shrieked when the boat fell over. "This can't be happening!" Demyx thought while staying underwater. The storm was supposed to go past far away from them!

Roxas and Axel shot up to the surface in slight panic. The waves were huge and whole time taking them away from each other and the fallen boat. Their shouts didn't get to the other over the thunder and crashing waves.

Demyx took a while to regain his place. Right after that he started to swim towards Roxas. The Keyblader was closer and it was lot easier to swim under the surface. The Nocturne pulled Roxas underwater. Roxas freaked out and fought as hard as he could.

Demyx held tight to him. "Calm down! It's just me!" He screamed and Roxas stopped fighting. He looked at Demyx quite confused and in panic. "No worries, you can breathe normally." Demyx told him with a nod. Roxas blinked at him but realized that Demyx had fixed the water somehow. The young Keyblader sighed and nodded.

"Thanks…" He whispered. Demyx nodded and closed his eyes. "Um… Dem, we gotta find Axel!" Roxas stated worriedly. Demyx nodded again but didn't open his eyes.

"I'm trying…" He replied while scanning through nearly the whole sea without finding his friend. "We need help…" He whispered quietly and gave a fast call of dolphin. It didn't take long before four dolphins came to the Nobodies. "Find my friend!" Demyx commanded and the four dolphins left.

Luckily the water creatures did find the redheaded fire wielder. Demyx and Roxas were quite worried when the dolphins brought him. "Damn it!" Demyx cursed while taking Axel and closed his eyes. After a while the Flurry started to cough. Demyx sighed in relief. "You OK?" He asked worriedly.

Axel nodded before opening his eyes and nearly freaking out. "Calm down!" Demyx screamed before hugging the freaking Flurry. "You're safe and can breathe! Don't worry!" Demyx shouted and little by little Axel did calm down.

"I'm not dead, am I?" He questioned worriedly. Demyx chuckled.

"Nope…" The Nocturne replied with a smile. "Now, let's head to shore." He continued and called the dolphins back. "Hold on tight." He commanded before the dolphins left towards the closest shore.

They went in silence for some time before Roxas glanced behind. He gulped and called to Demyx. "Dem…" He whispered and the Nocturne looked at him. Roxas only nodded behind. Frowning, Demyx checked and gulped.

A shark. It was following them. "Go forward. I'll fix this..." He stated and let go of the dolphin. Axel and Roxas stared little fearfully but they weren't going to let Demyx meet the shark alone. The three Nobodies were side by side by side while the shark started to circle them.

Axel and Roxas watched the huge water predator with fear. Demyx kept on watching it slightly confused. He extended his hand and the shark came closer by each circle. "Dem… What the heck are you doing?" Axel asked fearfully but didn't get an answer.

Eventually Demyx touched the skin of the shark. "What are you doing?" He questioned quietly. The shark didn't answer. "If you'll leave us alone, I'll promise you a meal. That good with you?" Demyx continued while watching the shark's moves.

Eventually, on the third time when Demyx touched the shark, it gave its answer. "Fine. It better be good enough for replacing three humans…" The shark replied little annoying and left further from them.

Axel and Roxas sighed in relief. Demyx shook his head. "It'll keep on following but won't be any of danger." He explained. Axel and Roxas only nodded and Demyx called the dolphins back.

Once they reached to the shore, Axel and Roxas scrambled out of the water and crashed to the sand. Demyx stood in the water while thanking the dolphins and keeping his promise for the shark. Then he walked to his friends and sat down.

"Let's dry you two now…" The Nocturne whispered and started to collect the water out of the Keyblader. Roxas was lying on the sand while trying to relax. Demyx threw the water ball back to the ocean before crawling to Axel. "And next you…"

"Nah, I can do that on my own…" Axel replied with a weary grin. He took once a deep breath and tried to call out his element. "The hell…?" He whispered and frowned. The fire didn't come no matter how he tried.

"I'll fix it." Demyx replied and laid his hand over Axel's chest. "Just relax." He whispered and closed his eyes to concentrate. Axel sighed and closed his eyes while letting Demyx take the water out.

Once the second water ball was thrown back to the ocean, Demyx lay on the shore too. "I think some rest would be good idea, or what?" He questioned but didn't get an answer. Demyx chuckled while looking at his two sleeping friends before joining them in the dream land.

Demyx woke up to a scream. He sat up and looked around. "Demyx! He's all cold!" Roxas shouted in fear. Demyx blinked and scrambled next to Axel. He tried his friend's forehead little fearfully. "We gotta do something!" Roxas shouted worriedly.

Demyx was quite shocked about how cold Axel really was. "I didn't do good enough work…" He feared while carefully taking Axel up. "Come on, Rox, we gotta start a fire!" Demyx commanded and carried the unconscious Flurry further from the water. "Fetch wood, braches, leaves… Anything that would burn!" Demyx shouted while starting to make a fireplace.

Roxas came back quite soon with branches and leaves. "Could this help?" He questioned worriedly. Demyx nodded.

"Fetch as much as you can. I'll start the fire." He stated. Roxas nodded and went back to the close by jungle. Demyx took up two sticks and started to work on making a fire. "Come on! Work!" He thought desperately and was more than happy when the fire did start. "Yes!" He half shouted and started to tend the fire.

Roxas made several trips to the jungle in search of anything good enough to burn. They kept the fire living and Axel as close to it as possible. "He's a fire wielder, right?" Roxas stated and Demyx nodded. "Maybe… Maybe we should but the fire on him…" Roxas whispered.

Demyx stared at him in shock. "We'd burn him!" He exclaimed but Roxas shook his head.

"He's been engulfed with fire quite often but he hasn't burned even once. Maybe we could get him warmer by putting the fire on him." Roxas replied. Demyx sighed but nodded.

"We need lot of leaves then…" He stated. Roxas nodded and left back to the jungle. He took as much of leaves as he could and dropped them on Axel. He fetched same kind of amount time after time and dropped them on Axel. Once the Flurry was nearly fully under leaves, Demyx moved the fire on a stick to the leaves.

After a while there was two fires. One over Axel and the other one next to him. Demyx gulped. "Hope this works…" He whispered quietly. Roxas nodded. "You keep a break and both fires living. I'll fetch some branches and stuff…" Demyx stated before standing up and heading to the jungle. Roxas nodded and took Demyx's place.

The Nocturne came back with some fruits. "I thought we could eat something…" He whispered little hesitantly. Roxas nodded and took eagerly some bananas and other fruits. They ate in silence before Demyx left to fetch leaves and branches for the fires.

During the night, Demyx stayed awake. They needed to look after the fires and make sure Axel would survive. "I can sleep later in the morning when Rox is awake…" He thought while laying his cloak over Axel. It didn't take long before it took fire. "Can't leave to fetch branches and stuff…"

When the morning finally came, Roxas fetched first more of leaves and branches. Demyx kept his eye on the fires. Once the Keyblader brought in big enough stack of leaves and other burnable things, Demyx lay down on the sand before falling asleep.

Later in the evening after small fruit meal, Roxas smiled a little. "Axel's getting better." He whispered. Demyx smiled and nodded.

"I'm glad to hear that." He replied. "You probably should get some sleep, Rox. I'll keep eye on things." Demyx continued and Roxas frowned a little.

"But you were awake last night…" He started but Demyx chuckled.

"Maybe, but I can sleep after you've woken up." The Nocturne replied. Roxas sighed but nodded. He really couldn't fight back against Demyx. The musician was after all higher ranked than Roxas.

During the night Demyx was running out of things to burn and the fire over Axel was dying. "Damn… What to do? What to do?" He panicked before something got into his mind. Baring himself, Demyx took a grip of one of the hot branches and gritting his teeth moved it next to Axel. "Hope that'll help…" He thought after doing same for several more branches to get Axel fully surrounded by the hot branches.

Demyx watched at his burned hands. It hurt but he couldn't really do much to it. Demyx sighed and looked sadly at Axel. "His life is lot more important that few burns in my hands…"

Demyx didn't tell to Roxas how he had moved the branches next to Axel at the morning. The Keyblader fetched some more burning stuff before Demyx took some rest. No matter how they tried to keep the branches and leaves to last through the night, it always seemed to end when you needed it more than anything.

Axel's condition kept on getting better which was something the two Nobodies were happy about. They barely talked. They had tried time after time again to create a dark portal but it just didn't come out. And they couldn't leave Axel alone.

It was fifth night and Demyx was once again moving the burning branches next to Axel. "Ouch… I just wonder when I'll be able to play properly again…"Demyx whispered after putting the second branch. After laying the third branch around Axel, the Flurry took a grip on Demyx's wrist.

"The hell are you doing?" He questioned quite angrily. Demyx was shocked and he just stared at Axel. The fire wielder sat up, glared at Demyx before looking at Demyx's hand. "Damn you… Healing this is going to take at least a week or two if not longer…" He grumbled before yanking Demyx's other hand for inspection. "Damn it…"

"…Axel…?" Demyx asked disbelieving. The Flurry looked at Demyx.

"Yeah?" He replied before looking back at Demyx's burnt hands. "Shit with these… Need more of Vexen's help than my knowledge of fire and burns…" He mumbled but that was as far as he could get. Demyx already pulled his hands free and hugged the Flurry.

"Axel!" He half shouted in tears. "We were so worried about you!" The Nocturne exclaimed. It took a while from Axel before returning the hug. But Demyx pulled off quite soon. He was smiling widely. "How are you feeling?" The musician straight off asked.

Axel raised an eyebrow at that. "I'm fine… What's exactly been going on?" He questioned little worriedly. Demyx gulped, lowered his gaze to the ground and slouched a little.

"It's my fault…" The Nocturne whispered quietly before starting to cry. "I shouldn't have kept us there! I'm glad the water didn't do anything to Roxas but you…! I nearly killed you!" Demyx shouted.

Roxas woke up to the talking and looked at his friends. It took him a while to realize that Axel had finally woken up. "Axel!" He screamed and straight off hugged the Flurry. The Keyblader didn't even realize that Demyx was crying not too far from him. "Oh hell! You freaked us out!" Roxas exclaimed when he pulled off.

Axel chuckled a little and grinned. "I'm fine. Dunno what's actually happened but sorry if I've worried you two." He replied and looked worriedly at Demyx before pulling him to a hug. "Dem… What's going on?" The Flurry questioned.

Demyx pulled off of the hug nearly straight off. "It's my fault…" He whispered without looking at his friends. Roxas frowned.

"Demyx?" The Keyblader questioned worriedly. Demyx just shook his head and stood up.

"I'll go for a while… I'm sorry…" He whispered and was just going to walk away but Axel shot after him.

"Like hell you will!" He half barked and hugged the crying Nocturne from behind. He kept on tight since Demyx kept on fighting back. "Dem, come on pal, calm down!" Axel stated firmly and sat them down on the sand. Roxas watched quite shocked.

Demyx kept on trying to get away but Axel was holding on too tight. "Ax, please… Let me go…" Demyx begged but Axel refused.

"Not until you explain what's going on." He replied firmly. Demyx stopped fighting and sighed.

"I nearly killed you…" The musician finally explained with a quiet whisper. Axel frowned.

"Don't really believe on that one." He stated. "I'd love to hear the reasons for such an accusation."

Demyx gulped but started to talk with wavering voice. "I kept the water breathable… On that way part of my element stays inside the ones around me which means that you ended up being half a water wielder and half a fire wielder… You were fighting against the element of water to keep hold of your life and your own element… And water wins fire…"

Axel was quite shocked. He had never thought that Demyx could do such a thing. "So… You're saying that…" He whispered. Demyx nodded.

"You would've ended up as a water wielder and on that way died because it wouldn't have been your real element…" Demyx replied quietly. "I nearly killed you…"

"But what about Roxas? I mean that…" Axel continued slightly confused. Demyx chuckled without humor.

"Luckily light wins nearly any element… The water didn't affect on him the way it did on you." Demyx explained. "Though, I did fear to get him killed too…"

Axel nodded. The two of them were quiet for some time. "Whose idea was to burn me, huh?" He questioned with a grin. Demyx sighed.

"Roxas'." He replied. Axel blinked and glanced at the Keyblader. Demyx finally scrambled off of Axel's grip and stood up. "I'll leave for now…" He whispered and before Axel could say or do anything else, the Nocturne had already left.

Axel sighed and stood up. He walked to Roxas and hugged him. "Thanks. You two saved my life." He whispered before pulling off and putting the burning branches and leaves that had been over him back to the main fire. Roxas watched little shocked at him. Axel chuckled after sitting down. "Don't worry, all's well now." He stated and smiled to Roxas.

The Keyblader smiled and went to sit next to Axel. He leaned against the Flurry and sighed happily. "I'm glad you're alright now. Me and Dem were so worried about you." He stated. Axel only nodded while hugging Roxas with his other arm. "By the way, where is Demyx going?"

Axel sighed. "I don't know. I wish he'll come back soon enough…"

Demyx had no idea where he was going. The musician just walked through the jungle. "It was so close that he would've been dead… And it's all my fault…" He thought before finally leaning against the closest tree and started to cry. He slid down to the ground and wrapped his arms around himself. "I'm so sorry…" After some time he continued his way to other side of the small island. He sighed while watching to the sea and sitting down to a rock.

The night fell and both Roxas and Axel were getting even more worried. "Where is he?" Axel half grumbled while looking towards the dark jungle. Roxas sighed and shook his head. He had no idea where Demyx could've been. "If he hasn't come back by the morning, we'll go find him." Axel stated and Roxas nodded before falling asleep.

By the morning, there was no sign of Demyx. Axel growled a little and killed the fire before waking Roxas up. "Come on, we'd better find Dem." He stated before starting to walk into the jungle. Roxas followed. Both started to call Demyx by name.

Demyx had fallen asleep on the rock while listening to the sound of waves. He blinked few times when he heard someone call him. "Huh?" The Nocturne wondered and glanced around while sitting up. He yawned and stretched a little while brushing at his eyes to wake up fully.

"Demyx!" Both Axel and Roxas exclaimed when they finally came to other side of the island and saw their friend. They rushed up to Demyx with a smile. "You OK?" Axel questioned slightly worried.

Demyx frowned when he noticed both of his friends. Axel came right in front of him and kneeled down. Roxas sat next to Demyx on the rock. The Flurry didn't seem to give a damn about the waves crashing on him. "Hey, Dem…" Axel said with a smile. "You OK?"

Demyx sighed and lowered his gaze to the rock. "Yeah… I guess…" He whispered and yelped a little when Roxas hugged him from behind.

"Come on, Dem… What's wrong?" Roxas questioned worriedly. Demyx gulped and closed his eyes.

"I… I nearly killed Axel…" He whispered. Roxas was quite shocked and he pulled off to stare at Demyx.

"The hell are you talking about?" He questioned worriedly and glanced from Demyx to Axel and back. Axel chuckled and shook his head.

"No you didn't. You saved my life, Dem. If you hadn't done what you did do, I would've freaking drowned." Axel stated with a grin. "I mean it when I say that you saved my life, Demyx. Got it memorized?"

Demyx frowned and looked at Axel. "But I…" He started but Axel brought his hand over Demyx's mouth.

"Don't. You haven't done anything wrong. It was the only thing you could do at the moment. And you saved my life." Axel said and carefully kissed Demyx to the forehead. "If anything I owe you for this…"

"You owe me nothing, Axel… It's just that…" Demyx tried but Axel cut him short.

"You couldn't know there to come that darn storm. You talked with the sea and it claimed it not to crash on us. It wasn't your fault, Dem. In fact, you saved both me and Roxas." Axel said as firmly as he could. "Now… If you don't mind, I'm little hungry… You think you could get us few fishes for food?"

Demyx blinked quite shocked at Axel. "…Fishes?" He questioned slightly worriedly. "But… You hate fish…" He whispered frowning. Axel laughed.

"Maybe so, but I think that would be quite a good food, don't ya think?" Axel replied with a grin. Demyx sighed but nodded.

"Since you're the one to suggest it… I think it's OK." Demyx replied and stood up. "You start the fire and I'll get the fishes."

Axel laughed, stood up and nodded. "Sounds great. Rox, you think you could find three sticks to get the fishes into?"Axel questioned and Roxas nodded happily. "Great! Let's work with it then!" Axel exclaimed and went to start the fire. Demyx chuckled before jumping to the water from the rock. Roxas ran into the jungle to get few sticks to put the fishes into.

It didn't take long before the trio was eating fishes. Demyx had gotten three bigger fishes for them. "Just one thing, guys…" Demyx whispered while eating. Axel and Roxas glanced at him without saying anything. "The fish bones are going back to the sea…" Demyx explained little blushing.

Axel shrugged. "If you say so." Roxas only nodded.

Demyx smiled. "Thanks."

Once the fish bones were thrown back to the sea, the trio was lying on the sand and watched to the blue sky. "So… How are we going to get back home?" Axel questioned little worriedly. Roxas shrugged while Demyx sighed.

"I don't know…" He whispered and sat up while staring to the sea. Axel followed his example but instead of sea, he was watching at his friend.

"I'm guessing that you're having a way out of here…" He stated little frowning. Demyx shook his head.

"I'm not going to state it out since it would never work. This was close enough to getting killed…" Demyx answered sadly. Axel grinned.

"Riding a dolphin would be cool, ya know." He said and Demyx glanced at him little shocked. "That was what you were thinking, right?" Axel continued while his grin spread. Demyx sighed but nodded. "Great! Let's do it then!" Axel half shouted and jumped up. Demyx stared at him more than shocked.

Roxas grinned. "I second that idea!" He exclaimed and was quite eager to get back together with the dolphins.

"So, how about it, Dem? Two against one on this case." Axel stated. Demyx sighed and shook his head yet he stood up.

"Fine…" He whispered and walked to the ocean. "I'll call them here."

It didn't take long before the trio was riding dolphins and heading back to the shore where they had left from. Luckily the way from the small island to the small town went without trouble. Once at the town they searched one dark alley and left back to the castle.
