Can a Replica Find Love?
AN OVERDUE APOLOGY
By Axel Ingleson

(Pairings: Axel and Kairi. Sora and Riku.)

“Maybe he’ll fall in love?” Sora offered.
“Always the romantic,” Riku smiled. “That’s my Sora. But that’s not as easy as it sounds. Remember, Sora, you and I knew each other for a long time before our love came to be. And we had a really bad rough patch during that Ansem incident.”
“Which I forgive you for,” Sora reminded him, seeing the look of guilt on Riku’s face. “But it’s worth a shot, right?”
“People don’t just fall in love on command like trained puppies,” Kairi pointed out. “I mean, we can set him up on a date with Selphie and…”
“Kairi,” Riku shook his head, “he’s my replica. If I’m gay, then chances are pretty strong that so is he.”
“Right,” Kairi shrugged.
“Look, maybe Sora’s right,” Repliku suggested. “Maybe I should look for someone to become involved with. But I have the feeling he’s not here. I should leave, and not come back until I find him.”
“We’re going with you,” Sora told him. “If you are a Heartless attractant, we’ll need to be there to fight them off.”
“You don’t think I can handle them?” Repliku sounded insulted.
“A small or medium sized group? Perhaps. But not in large numbers.” Axel said. “I tried taking on a large number myself several years ago and ended up fading.”
“They’re right,” Riku said. “We go as a group. End of discussion.”
“Is there any point in waiting?” Sora asked.
“None,” Riku replied. “We leave now. Our first step will be to see King Mickey. He’s helped me out before, so I’m sure he’ll help us out now.”
“Why not visit Master Yen Sid?” Sora suggested.
“Master Yen Sid is unavailable right now, Sora,” Riku said. “Don’t worry. If the need arises, we will visit him.”
“I think Kairi should sit this one out,” Axel suggested. “We don’t know how long this will take, and she shouldn’t be doing any world-to-world travelling past her second trimester.”
“Whatever you say, Dr. Axel,” Kairi bowed, sarcastically.
“Things might not be safe for Kairi here, however,” Riku offered. “Her best bet would be to come with us as far as Disney Castle. They’ll be able to protect her there.”
“Let’s go, then,” Repliku said, impatiently. “If you’re right about my attracting the Heartless, then we don’t want to be in any one place too long.”
“Too late,” Axel sighed, drawing his chakrams at the sudden appearance of about twenty Shadow Heartless around them.
“Not this time, Axel,” Sora said, putting a hand on his shoulder. “You’ve got a kid coming. Take Kairi aboard the ship with Repliku. Riku and I will handle these guys.”
Axel nodded, and led Kairi onto Repliku’s ship, looking back every so often as if he wanted to join the battle taking place between Sora, Riku, and the Heartless.
Sora’s and Riku’s Keyblades flashed brilliantly in the sunlight as they eliminated Heartless after Heartless with a single stroke. Back to back, then side by side, the battled their common foe until not a single enemy was left.
“We’d better get going, before more Heartless show up,” Riku suggested, as he began to run toward the ship.
Sora ran after him, nodding in agreement.
As soon as they were aboard the ship, Repliku sat down at the controls and closed the ramp. “Everyone who’s not sitting down had better do so,” he warned. “This baby has one hell of a thrust! Those two seats!”
Riku and Sora took their seats, which they noticed were the ship’s gunnery chairs and, strapped themselves in as the other passengers did likewise.
Repliku smiled as the ship slowly lifted itself into the air, drifting gently upwards until it had reached a high enough altitude to avoid any trees, buildings, or mountains.
“Hey,” Axel called out, “don’t forget Kairi’s expecting!”
“The seats are equipped with a gravity-force equalizer,” Repliku said, “A little something Vexen came up with shortly before he got side-tracked with me. It’ll prevent anyone sitting in them from experiencing the normal impact caused by high velocity travel.”
And without any further explanation, he activated the ship’s forward thrusters.
A meteor storm and a few enemy fighters made excellent target practice for Sora and Riku as the ship weaved its way down the new path from Destiny Islands to Disney Castle.
“That was almost too easy,” Riku said, cautiously as King Mickey’s world appeared before them.
“I agree,” Sora nodded. “Unless there’s no Heartless here.”
“No, they’re here,” Axel disagreed. “They’re just lying low at the moment. Don’t let your guard down for an instant.”
“Right,” Repliku lowered the ship to communication level, then spoke into the ship’s radio. “This is Repliku calling His Majesty, the King. If you can hear me, I am requesting permission to land.”
“Is Riku with you?”
“I am,” Riku stated.
“Me, too!” Sora chimed in.
“Hello, your majesty,” Kairi joined them.
“Be careful,” King Mickey warned,. “The Castle’s sensors are picking up the presence of a powerful Nobody in your vicinity.”
“Oh, that’s probably just Axel,” Sora laughed. “It’s okay. He’s with Kairi.”
“Axel?” King Mickey was silent for a moment, then he spoke again. “Well, he did save your life, Sora. So I guess he’s okay. Permission to land granted.”
