Roxa's Final Wish by Walker of Nothing and DeRaza360
Raza: When I typed Xigbar for the first time, it suggested 'Bargain'. XD

Roxas continued moving his way into the castle. He walked on the polished white floor, his steps making echoing clicks every time. Roxas met the hallway which lead to the Crooked Ascension. It stretched out seemingly forever, but Roxas knew that was just a trick to detour intruders. He walked through the long straight corridor. Roxas walked past the two small lights on the ground, the ones you couldn't pass if the elevator wasn't there yet.
He stood at the entrance of the elevator. Roxas stayed exactly still. Something wasn't quite right about this place. The air in the ascension seemed uncomfortable. It started to wobble, then more ferociously. Roxas felt at unease by this. The air started to wobble at such a rapid pace now, you couldn't see anything through it. All of a sudden the air stopped dancing and a man in black appeared.
His hair was tied back, streaks of silver running through it. He wore an eye patch which must have somehow been related to the scar running down his face. This man was currently hanging upside down in the air causing his pony tail to dangle about with every movement he made.
"You sure put the Organization in a pickle, Roxas." Xigbar said as he prepared his guns. "And as far as I'm concerned, you're not getting anywhere near Kingdom Hearts."
~x~
Roxas tensed his hands as two distinct keyblades formed in them. He ran up to Xigbar wildly slashing his weapons at him. Xigbar teleported after the first hit and reappeared behind Roxas. The Crooked Ascension began ascending. The invisible walls were coated with white as the elevator rose with break neck speed.
Roxas instinctively turned around and used his keyblade to block some incoming bullets. He then cast a Fire spell at Xigbar to see him teleport away before the spell reached him. Roxas was temporarily isolated, alone in the rising floor. Sniper nobodies suddenly emerged around him. Roxas was completely surrounded.
Xigbar reappeared in Roxas's vision. "I'll give you one last chance, Roxas. Just give up now." Roxas could see Xigbar was going to fight even if he did give up, but he was never going to give up. Not now, not ever. Roxas twirled Oath Keeper and Oblivion and then threw them in opposite directions. They spun their way through all the sniper nobodies and returned to Roxas like they were tied to him by invisible strings.
"Very good." Xigbar complemented. Xigbar then raised his guns and projected a group of bullets towards Roxas. Roxas jumped out of the way just in time, and used the now solid white wall to wall jump back towards his attacker. He brought his keyblades down on Xigbar, getting a good square shot on him. Xigbar floated up to an unreachable height in the elevator.
"Reload." he said as he swung his guns to his side. The guns were empty, but then bullets started to glow in place of the previous rounds. The glowing stopped and revealed a new set of bullets. Xigbar had 'reloaded'. He then proceeded to rain bullets down onto Roxas. Roxas just got sick of this and smashed Oblivion into the ground.
The floor of the Crooked Ascencion broke open, and Roxas swung under it to take cover from Xigbar's fire. Roxas could hear every single bullet that hit the floor and saw some of the bullets that went through the hole he recently created.
The G force of the elevator stopping pushed Roxas up against the bottom of the floor. He didn't know how much longer he could hold on for, so he flung himself back into the heat of the battle. Xigbar was standing on the floor just a bit away from Roxas, and his guns were at the ready.
Roxas deflected the first few shots from Xigbar and jumped up high into the air. He fell back down toward the free shooter a held his two keyblades behind his back. Xigbar disappeared of course, just as Roxas had expected.
His two keyblades flew out away from Roxas's back and towards Xigbar. Xigbar held his guns to his face and blocked the two keyblades. When he lowered them Roxas gave Xigbar a direct punch to his face.
Xigbar lost control of space and fell to the floor. He grasped his head in the stinging pain it now had. Roxas walked away from the elevator and just past the two glowing lights. Roxas tapped his foot over the lights and caused the Crooked Ascencion to go down a few floors. Xigbar was too weary to teleport himself back up to Roxas. He had to recovered before he could face him again.

Axel made an appearance Where Nothing Gathers. He looked up at Xemnas and said, "Roxas is making his way towards Kingdom Hearts. He plans to free it."
"Is that so?" Xemnas queried Axel. Axel nodded.
"Then that makes our job so much easier." Xemnas said as he relaxed further into his chair.
PICKLES! PICKLES! PICKLES! Xigbar is obsessed with pickles I tells ya!
