Chapter 6


[Why! Why do you have the key blade?] The blindfolded being’s voice still echoes in Roxas’ ears. He could not remember how long it had been since his encounter with the man who seemed too familiar for comfort. All he could remember about that night now was the expression on Axel’s face as he told him.

[Axel...I...I have to leave]


Roxas sat with his arms crossed in his lap, staring into the center of the circular white room in which Xemnas frequently held gatherings of the Organization.

Xemnas’ voice echoed throughout the room and gave the gathering an eerie presence.

“Kingdom Hearts will be completed soon. The key blade will unlock the powers to make us whole again...”

The superior’s voice trailed off as Roxas closed his eyes, replaying his decision over and over in his head…

[Roxas...I don’t want to lose you] Axel’s words wrenched at his thoughts. Axel would be the only reason for remaining with the Organization, but his destiny lie elsewhere.

[You just don’t understand what this is like Axel! The dreams, my encounter with that man, the key blade, they are all connected...I just know it!]

The nobodies argued on into the night. Angered voices hung in the air of the chamber, words were said that should have been left alone. Axel lost his temper and the fight ended. All Roxas has of that night is a burned hole in his chamber wall and in his non-existent heart.

Roxas opened his eyes and fought back frustrated tears as he glanced over at Axel, who was staring down at his hands, no expression on his face.

Demyx sad sideways in his seat, gazing at Axel in concern and flinging droplets of water at the redhead to get his attention. Axel flinched as the water bounced off his coat and he glanced over at Demyx, giving him an annoyed glare.

“The powerful nobodies of the great rulers in each world will be a valuable resource in our plans...now go...you know your jobs...” Xemnas dismissed the gathering and approached Axel.

“Number VIII, I need you to keep an eye on the city for now. I’ve heard rumors of intruders that can be detrimental to our mission. They must be eliminated...”

Axel nodded slowly without looking at his superior. He jumped out from depressive state as a gloved hand came down on his shoulder. Hoping it was Roxas, he lifted his head and laid eyes on Demyx, smiling down at him. He then glanced around the emptying room and saw Roxas nowhere in sight. His eyes widened and he shook Demyx off, rushing from the room.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

The moon cast an eerie glow across the world that never was. Kingdom hearts is the only light given to the nobodies in their dark, lonely world. Roxas could only conclude that is why anybody would join the Organization in the first place…to be bathed in that light in hopes of becoming whole again. He scoffed as he walked quickly through the alleys, knowing that his chance of ever being whole again would not be given to him by the Organization.

A pang of guilt hit him hard as he thought of Axel. [I never even said goodbye…] He shook his head and knew he could not turn back now. Axel had given him everything he could ever want, except he could not make that nagging feeling go away. He could not make the dreams go away...

“Your mind’s made up?”

Roxas stopped in his tracks at the sound of Axel’s voice. The thudding in his chest turned to pounding as he turned toward the redhead leaning against a nearby wall.

Thunder rumbled in the sky, threatening to break loose the tears being held back for so long.

“...Why did the key blade choose me?...I have to know...” Roxas spoke calmly to Axel, studying the hurtful expression on his lover’s face.

Axel furrowed his brow and glared at Roxas. “You can’t turn on the Organization!...You get on their bad side and they’ll destroy you!” His voice shaking slightly under the weight of his emotions, burning throughout his body.

Roxas turned away from Axel, avoiding his intense stare and sighed. He shook his head and tried to convince himself again that this is the right choice.

“No one would miss me...”

Axel’s lips parted in complete shock as he watched Roxas continue to walk away from him with determined steps, refusing to look back. The redhead balled his fists in anger.

“That’s not true!...” Axel then accepted defeat and lowered his head in sadness. “...I would...” He spoke as he felt his non-existent heart breaking.

Roxas stopped as he heard Axel’s voice become weak. He could not leave him like this. He could not allow himself to turn his back so easily on the one who gave him his first experience at true feelings...the one who inspired him to question his nothingness in the first place.

He turned and walked quickly towards Axel, throwing his arms around the redhead’s neck, pushing him against the wall.

“Roxas!” Axel gasped in complete shock as he expected to never see Roxas again a moment ago. The redhead returned the embrace, closing his eyes, as if to envelope himself in a moment he might never experience again.

Roxas loosened his grip and gazed into Axel’s eyes. The emerald green blazing brighter as it was accented with brimming tears, refusing to fall. Roxas then pressed his lips harshly against Axel’s, forcing his tongue into his lover’s mouth. Axel sighed and parted his lips, allowing his lover to taste every bit of him.

Roxas felt Axel kiss him back with intense desperation. He pulled the zipper of Axel’s coat down quickly, followed by his own. Axel broke the kiss in surprise, not expecting the sudden undressing as Roxas dropped to his knees, trailing his fingers down Axel’s abdomen and to the button of his pants.

“Roxas...What...” Axel whispered and was cut off by the moan escaping his lips as Roxas pulled his lover’s cock from his pants, tracing his tongue down the shaft before slipping the head between his lips. Axel leaned his head back against the wall as he laced his finger’s through Roxas’ hair, never wanting this to end.

He thought about arguing the situation and begging Roxas to stay but any thoughts in his mind at all melted away as Roxas slid every inch of Axel into his mouth, running his tongue gracefully along the underside.

“Ah...Fuck...” Axel moaned as Roxas pushed his legs apart further and pulled his pants around his thighs. His lover continued his ministrations as he sucked harder on his cock, distracting him as he ran his fingers over the redhead’s slick cock. Roxas then ran his wet fingers between Axel’s thighs and probed inside his body.

Axel moaned loudly at the sudden rush of pleasure running over him as Roxas fucked him with his fingers in time with his skilled sucking. Axel knew he could not hold out much longer and Roxas took his hint of leaning harder against the wall, tensing up and squeezing his eyes shut.

Roxas released Axel and rose to kiss him deeply as he slid the coat off Axel’s shoulders. It fell to the ground in a mass and Roxas traced his fingers over Axel’s chest and toned stomach , memorizing every inch of his lover. Axel sighed at the extremely gentle caressing he was receiving from Roxas and pressed his hard cock against the throbbing bulge forming in his lover’s pants.

“Roxas...” Axel whispered. The pounding in his chest was overwhelming as his mind tangled with the thought that after this moment, Roxas might be gone forever.

Roxas sighs as Axel grinds his body against his and he wraps his hands around his lover’s hips, turning him to face the wall. Axel’s eyes widen slightly as he looks over his shoulder at Roxas, who is tracing his tongue over the curve of his arched spine as he pulls his own cock from the confines of his pants. Axel braces himself against the wall, spreading his legs further apart, offering himself to Roxas.

Roxas smiles softly, fighting back his sadness as he bends over his lover, placing gentle kisses on his shoulder and the curve of his neck. Axel tilts his head and sighs, allowing Roxas to taste his skin, savoring every flavor of his love.

The redhead grips his fingers over the brick and sucks in a gasp through clenched teeth as Roxas slides the head of his cock inside of his body.

“Oh Gods...Roxas...” Axel cries as his lover wraps one hand around his aching cock and his other hand around the quivering muscles of his hip. Roxas gasps as he pushes himself fully inside Axel, his eyes rolling back in his head as the warmth overwhelms his senses. He feels Axel relax against him and he begins to rock himself in and out of his lover.

The concrete felt cool against Axel’s flushed face and he closes his eyes, absorbing every thrust and rush of pleasure from Roxas. His lover’s moans echo in the alleyway and he cries out in response as Roxas strokes him harder and faster, almost sending him over the edge.

“Axel...I...Love You...” Roxas groans into Axel’s ear, followed by soft kisses and rough bites on his shoulder.

Axel fights back the overwhelming emotion attached to his lover’s words and tilts his head back, moaning and whimpering the blonde’s names over and over.

“Roxas...I Love..You..So much” the redhead stammers as sweat slides down his temple and he reaches one hand down from the wall and grasps Roxas’ hand, still gripped on his hip.

Roxas quickens his pace, driving Axel harder against the wall with full deep thrusts. Axel cries out in response and feels his body tense as pre-cum spills from his cock, over Roxas’ tightly gripped fingers.

“Oh...Axel!” Roxas moans loudly as he releases his warm essence deep inside his lover. The shivers from Roxas send chills up Axel’s spine and he spills himself into Roxas’ hand, thrusting against his lover’s grip.

The two nobodies pant softly against each other. Axel tightens his grip on Roxas’ hand, almost refusing to let go.

“Roxas...” he whispers as he feels his love’s resistance against his grip. Roxas rights himself and straightens his clothes with his free hand, hinting that it is time to let go.

Axel reluctantly legs go of his hand, re-dressing himself as he turns to face Roxas. His eyes are pleading and desperate as he wraps his arms around Roxas, whose legs are weak beneath his own weight.

Roxas closes his eyes, inhaling the sweet smell of Axel’s skin against his neck, making sure he never forgets this feeling.

“Roxas...don’t forget me...” Axel struggles to speak against the choking in his chest. His eyes fills with tears but he refuses to let them fall.

“I will never forget you Axel, no matter what...” Roxas sighs sadly and loosens his grip on Axel, who only tightens the embrace.

Roxas pulls back and runs his fingers over the smooth skin of Axel’s cheek. He stares deeply into his lover’s wild green eyes, darkened with sadness.

“Smile Axel...Please...” Roxas almost begs, remembering that his favorite quality about Axel’s is his mischievous grin.

Axel rolls his eyes at Roxas, and forces a smile, flashing him that trademark grin, always assuring Roxas that everything would be alright.

Roxas needed that smile one last time to assure him that Axel would be alright...without him.

Axel continued to force a smile as Roxas backed away and returned the smile before he turned and walked away. His lips parted as he reached his arm out but words would not come now because for the first time in his nobody life, he cried as Roxas disappeared into the shadows. His tears were almost as hot as his element as they slid freely down his cheeks.

He did not even know nobodies could really cry until now...

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Roxas walked slowly through the alleyways, turning back every now and then to see if Axel was following him. He sighed as no sight of his love came into view and he summoned a portal before him. This was it…

He suddenly heard footsteps behind him and he reeled around.

“Axel?” He questioned as a tall figure in a black coat approached him quickly.

His eyes widened as a key blade materialized in the figure’s gloved hand and that was the last thing Roxas saw before a rush of pain shot through his body and the darkness came.
