Chapter 13


Axel was sitting in the gray area, trying to get some well needed rest. Life had been pretty stressful lately. He just had a mission to destroy a threesome of darksides solo, and just barely finished them off before he collapsed from exhaustion. He shifted his body to be able to lie down on the couch and closed his eyes. He was finally relaxing for the first time in... too long. This serene moment lasted all of five seconds before he felt several heavy objects fell on him.

"What the-" he shouted looking up ready to kill the person that disturbed his moment of peace. Two bad it was his best friend Roxas, so he couldn't kill him. "Xemnas said to take out the trash Axel" the blond informed his friend. The boy was evidently lying because taking out the trash was his job.

Axel narrowed his eyes, "Roxas?" he asked warningly.

"Yes Axel?" the blond asked looking at the pyro.

"What were you really doing?" Before Roxas could answer, a loud call of, "Come on Roxas!" drew him away fast. Darn Xion…

The fourteenth member came running into the room. Roxas smiled at her as she grabbed his arm, giving axel a quick hello before pulling the blonde away to who knows where. "You better hide good, I'm going to get you later!" Axel growled. He could have ran after them, but he didn't have this type of time off very often so he wanted to take it for all it was worth.

So he simply took out the several heavy bags of trash before going to his room, deciding it would be easier to rest there. He opened the door to his room and walked in, though his legs hit a string across the doorframe. He briefly wondered what it was, but found out quickly when a bucket of honey was pored over his head. The roaring laughter he expected did not come. Instead came to terrified yelps. The pyro turned around to see who was responsible, intending to kill them, even if it was Roxas.

Neox and Calixa stood their in fear, "A-Axel!" Neox stammered.

"You two are so dead!" he yelled.

Calixa grabbed the terrified youngest member and ran, since Neox was stunned with fear. Axel was hot on there heals. Awhile later he was dragging them back towards the room and tossed them in, "Explain. Now," he ordered firmly.

Calixa looked at her shoes, "Um well, it started when I got bored…"

A few minutes later, both children had left the room with teary eyes as axel put his belt back and closed the door. Now it was time to really relax, he laid down on the bed. Granted his peace lasted longer than last time before heard the banging on his door. A growl escaped his lips, who could it be this time? The banging got louder, and a crack was heard from the door as it threatened to break.

The red head stood up and opened the door. Demyx stood there, "What. Do. You. Want!" Axel asked in a deadly low voice, his patients was warring thin.

"My naughty by nature CD that I lent you," the blonde replied holding his hand out.

With a heavy sigh, Axel want over to his desk and grabbed a disc and gave it to the Melodious Nocturne.

"Thank you," Demyx said walking off.

"Oh Kingdom Hearts please let me be able to relax now without interruptions," Axel pleaded looking up. Kingdom hearts must have been in as bad a mood as he was, for as soon as he closed the door someone knocked. He let out a frustrated scream, and swung the door opened, "WHAT!"

Xemnas stood their, looking at axel as if he had a second head. "A-hum, hello Superior," Axel quickly regained his composure.

"Hello number eight," Xemnas said calmly. "I have a mission for you."

"What? I just came back from a mission."

"Yes, but due to unknown circumstances, numbers fifteen and sixteen can not make it."

Axel's whole world came crashing down on him, "What circumstances?" he asked dreading the answer.

"They have welts all over their backsides, and are unable to sit down." He blew it, Axel knew that for sure.

He should have just let them run; now his relaxing moment would never come again. "Its just a scouting mission," Xemnas assured.

"Fine," Axel eventually gave in.

Hours later, the pyro limped into his room, falling onto the bed. "God if you care about me, you will let me sleep now!" he cried out to no one in particular.

Axel nearly burst into tears as their was a knock at the door, "Whoever you are, come in and kill me please!" he yelled at them without looking up.

Larxene barged in, holding a struggling Neox and Calixa by their underwear suspended in the air and tossed them at axel. "What is the meaning of this," Axel asked bewildered.

"Babysit them for Zexion or I might grant your wish," she said before she left slamming the door behind her.

"Why do you guys need to be babysat anyway?" he asked them.

"Zexion doesn't want us to get in trouble" Calixa stated, sitting on Neox's back.

"Calixa, get off of him, your going to crush him," Axel ordered.

"But he makes a good cushion," Calixa stated as Neox yelled that her diet would be the end of him.

"Shut up," Calixa told him.

"Big fat…" the silver haired child said followed by a multitude of complicated words.

"Ok its nap time, right now," Axel grabbed Calixa's arm and pulled her off the boy before she squashed him.

"But I don't wanna nap," Neox whined, however he was rubbing his eyes

"We all need a nap right now, so lie down on the couch and sleep before I knock you both out." The kids complied and axel lied down. They were all sleep within a few minutes, giving Axel the piece he finally deserved.

CRASH!


There you have it, short and sweet ;)
