My Sun, My Moon, My Soul

`~`~`Riku's POV`~`~`

He woke up, feeling a little dizzy. What happened last night? He remembered being with Sora, but then it became foggy after that. Sora wasn't anywhere, and his scent wasn't strong. He looked around his room, finding nothing.

"Sora?" he called out.

Nothing.

Sora? He didn't respond.

He walked downstairs, he saw Leon in the kitchen. Axel was still on the couch, sleeping, but where was Roxas and Cloud? None of the Strife brothers were there.

"Leon, what's wrong?" he asked.

Leon was looking at a piece of paper, staring blankly at it.

Axel woke up, looking around. "Hey, have you guys seen Roxas?" He walked into the kitchen, standing next to him. "Where's Sora, Riku?"

He shrugged. "I don't know."

Leon looked at them. "They're gone…"

Riku stood there, looking at him. "What…?"

Leon handed him the paper he was looking at.

Leon,

I'm so sorry. But me, Sora, and Roxas have to leave. We know they have come back to get us and we can't let them get their hands on you and your brothers. I'm so sorry we had to leave like this, but I promise to be back. Don't come after us, I beg you.

Love,

Cloud

They left? Sora left him, and didn't tell him?

He saw Axel turn pale, he could tell he didn't want to believe they left.

Sora left me…

He walked back to his room, Sora's scent was still there. His Sora left him. He laid down on his bed, crying at the lost of losing the one person he loved. His heart felt dead, like Sora had taken it with him when he left. He cried, letting all his emotions out.

Something crumpled under his pillow, he looked under his pillow, seeing a piece of paper there. He unfolded it.

Don't cry

He looked at the two little words on the paper, feeling his heart breaking more. Sora knew he would and asked him not to. He cried more than he ever had. Please come back to me Sora!

`~`~`Axel's POV`~`~`

He heard Riku, crying in his room.

He couldn't believe Roxas left him. The one person who loved for who he is…and he left him.

Walking up to his room, he laid down on his bed, trying his best not to cry. Tears were already forming. Roxas had never told him he loved him. He knew his little spitfire would have a hard time expressing his feelings, and he remembered how Roxas struggled to get the words out his mouth last night. He'd told him not to say anything and had accidentally branded him. Roxas hadn't gotten mad, if anything he had been happy.

He found a paper sticking out the corner of his pillow. A note from his little spitfire.

Axel,

I just want to let you know, I'll never feel the same way about anyone like I've felt for you. You're the best thing that's ever happened to me. I know I never told you those three little words you told me last night. And I don't plan on telling you on a piece of paper, so I'll tell you when I come back. Don't follow me. I hope you can forgive me when I come back.

Roxas

He wanted to call Zexion and ask him to tell the shadows to locate Roxas. But he couldn't do that. Roxas and his family had asked them not to follow them. He would wait for Roxas to return to him. Even if it meant waiting forever.

`~`~` Leon's POV`~`~`

He honestly didn't know how to feel.

He felt…numb.

Almost like he did when…He shook his head, not wanting to think about the past.

He hadn't loved anyone like he did Cloud.

Now he was gone…

Leon didn't know how to feel. He wanted to scream, roar, and cry all at the same time. He wanted to go out and bring his blonde wolf back, but he wanted to respect Cloud's wishes.

Though it killed him to do so.

`~`~`Sora's POV`~`~`

He sat in the car, crying over the fact he left his soul mate. He cried, knowing Riku was crying right now even though he'd left the note telling him not to.

Roxas looked blankly out the window, but he could feel his brother's anguish. Cloud hadn't said a word since they left. He knew Sephiroth and Ansem would come after them now.

`~`~`Roxas' POV`~`~`

He heard Sora still crying over leaving. His brother hadn't stopped and he honestly he just wanted to yell at him to stop crying. But he knew he would be crying too if he was sensitive like Sora. Cloud didn't talk to them, but he knew Cloud was just as upset as they were.

I love you Axel…

He regretted not being able to tell him that. But he knew Axel understood, he only hoped Axel would forgive him for leaving. He watched as Cloud drove for what seem liked months.

Driving toward the place to end this…

`~`~`Cloud's POV`~`~`

He saw the sorrowful looks on his sons' faces. He wanted nothing more than turn back and drive back to Leon's house. He hated leaving his lion, wanting nothing more than to be in bed and with Leon's arms around him. I miss you Leon, but I won't put you or your family's lives in danger. He didn't even want Sora or Roxas there, knowing they were still kids and didn't need blood on their hands.

Well not any more blood on their hands. Going up against Xigbar, Xaldin, and Lexaeus had nearly broken them and he couldn't help them. Being stuck in the tank and experimented on for years made him stiff and unprepared for battle unlike the twins, who were always training their mental abilities and physical power. They didn't have a childhood. When they had finally escaped, he tried his best to make them as happy as possible. But being chased around and moving to different places didn't offer them a stabled place to call home. Destiny Islands had been the first place that they could call home. Sora was no longer the shy, timid little boy and had grown to be confident and loving thanks to Riku. Roxas learned to trust someone else and be honest though he knew Roxas regretted not being able to tell Axel he loved him.

And he had found love when he thought he'd never find it. The nightmare of Tifa's death still haunted him, but Leon had filled the hole in his heart. He knew he could never forget it, or miss the child that was lost when she was killed. The twins had done that for him, they filled that hole that still missed his unborn child.

But now, like always, they had to leave their new life behind. Only this time, they weren't running from the past. They running back to finally end it.

He only hoped that they were alive to go back to their life.
