Summary: Roxas has a mission in Halloween Town on Halloween. Axel is to accompany him; much to his dismay since he finds the red-head to be overly annoying. Unbeknownst to them, the town's deserted save for Dr. Finklestein who happens across them and wants to experiment... A/n: Hello everyone! Just to forewarn you- this will be the final chapter. I want to keep this story strictly about the mission in Halloween town/ Axel and Roxas becoming friends. I do, however, plan on writing a sequel if anyone's interested. This is Halloween Chapter 4 -- Bleary blue eyes opened as the sun graced their owner with its presence. Organization Thirteen's number Thirteen opened his eyes, muttering something under his breath and cursing at that jack-o'-lantern shaped sun. Roxas, as he'd been named by the Superior, sat up, cracking his back and then his neck in turn. "What was that?" Came a voice beside him. Roxas knew the statement was referring to what he'd said. Ocean blue shifted toward the owner's voice, a certain red-head whom he'd found annoying as hell until just recently, locking with emerald green as he likewise sat up. "I said," the blond murmured, as their eyes locked, "Crazy ass town." Axel smirked. "You can say that again. Let's get out of here." Roxas smiled though he wasn't even close to normal yet. "You're feeling strong enough?" The red-head nodded. "Thanks to you," he whispered. -- Roxas and Axel entered Castle Oblivion, running into the Superior shortly after. He looked furious. "Zexion informed me that you'd re-entered the castle," he said in response to their puzzled looks as to how he'd found them so quickly. "Where have you two been?" The blond, who was being supported by the red-head, opened his mouth but before he could speak, Axel did. "We ran into some trouble. Roxas is suffering more than me from it, so I'll fill out a report as soon as I take him to see Vexen." Xemnas' eyebrow rose then he nodded. "Very good. I will be awaiting an explanation. And your excuse had better be good," he said coldly, beginning to walk toward his office. Axel immediately made a rude gesture behind the elder nobody's back. Roxas sniggered then looked up at the red-head searchingly, realizing that they hadn't completed the mission and had been gone for over a week. Xemnas, obviously, did not like failure. "Are we going to be in trouble?" he asked. The red-head shook his head. "It'll be okay. I'll take care of it." The blond nodded slowly. "Now let's get you to Vexen." -- Roxas lay in his room. Axel had taken him to see Vexen who, after inspecting him, had recommended that he rest- to both him and the Superior. So, the youngest nobody had been lying on his bed ever since. He was on strict orders not to venture outside of his room by both Xemnas and Vexen, for anything but food and he absolutely hated it. Roxas supposed it was similar to being grounded. The newest addition to the Organization closed his eyes sighing heavily before turning onto his side and throwing a blanket over his head. Though he was pouting, he supposed it was for the best. It would be better if he got well sooner rather than later- he hated feeling so weak- but he was bored to death. After a few moments, Roxas slowly reopened his eyes. Along with being bored, something had been bothering him recently; he'd been concerned due to not hearing from Axel for the past few days. The blond really hoped that they weren't in trouble and that the elder nobody was okay. Roxas turned his head, lowering the blanket when a soft knock came from his door. "Come in," the blond called, expecting the Superior to be checking up on him. He was pleasantly surprised when a familiar red-head poked his head in. "Hey," he said, smiling, and shutting the door before approaching the sulking-until-just-now blond. "How are you feeling?" Roxas returned the smile. "A little better, now." "Now?" the taller boy asked, sitting on the other boy's bed, an eyebrow rising. Roxas nodded. "I've been lonely for the past few days." Axel smiled apologetically. "Sorry. I had to fill out the report then meet with Oogie Boogie. Otherwise I would have visited sooner." "Oh? How'd that go?" Roxas asked. The red-head smirked. "Good. I took Luxord with me- it seems that both he and Oogie like to gamble. Luxord won." Roxas smiled, liking the synopsis, before looking at the red-head nervously. A delicate eyebrow rose for a second time. "What?" "Are we in trouble..?" Axel shook his head. "I told you I'd take care of it," he said. "There was no reason to worry." Roxas nodded. "I'm sorry… I just… I know that Xemnas dislikes failure." "He was pretty understanding… surprisingly," the red-head replied. The blond closed his eyes, nodding. "I'm glad," he said softly. Axel smiled and then looked concerned. "Are you sure you're doing alright?" he asked. Roxas nodded. "You're still pale…" The smaller boy sighed. "I could probably use some more rest… but I don't want you to leave either." The red-head smiled. "Then I'll lie beside you until you fall asleep. How's that?" He asked. Roxas returned the smile. "I'd like that," he whispered, watching the red-head lie beside him. "How about you?" Roxas asked, elaborating when the red-head looked bewildered. "Are you back to normal?" Axel grinned, gripping the blond's waist and pulling him close. Roxas gasped in surprise as their chests collided. "What do you think?" he asked softly. Roxas' mouth opened then closed, his face flushing. "You seem quite normal," he replied. Axel smirked. "So stop worrying," he whispered. "Sorry," the blond whispered back. He hugged the red-head back, staring into his chest. It was crazy- how warm the pyro was. "Hey," Axel said. Roxas looked up, his cerulean locking with emerald. "What?" he asked. "I want to take you up on your offer." "…What offer?" Roxas asked. Axel smiled widely. "The one where we become friends after getting out of Halloween Town." Roxas smiled even more widely, hugging the red-head tightly. "I'd like that," he whispered back before yawning. "Alright," the red-head whispered, "As soon as you're out of confinement, let's hang out." Roxas closed his eyes and nuzzled closer to the red-head, beginning to drift off. He was so warm and comfortable in Axel's arms… that he couldn't help it. "Okay," he whispered back. -- Axel watched Roxas as he slept. The blond had fallen asleep, shortly after they'd agreed to become friends. The older nobody halfway smiled, touching the younger boy's face. For the past few days Roxas was all he'd been able to think about- that beautiful face, those cerulean eyes, and that marvelous spirit. Being in Halloween Town hadn't helped. "Friends…" he whispered, running his fingers along the younger boy's lips, still halfway smiling. "Perhaps one day, we'll be more than that," he said softly. Being careful not to wake the other boy, he craned his neck, lowering his hand just before their lips brushed then locked together innocently for a long moment. The red-head didn't dare do more than that, just in case, and pulled away. He didn't want to be impaled by a keyblade later. "Sleep well… Roxas," he whispered before slipping away. -- Roxas woke up alone, disappointed. He closed his eyes, hoping the red-head would stop by again the next day, really looking forward to getting better so that they could spend more time together. All in all… he rather enjoyed being around him. He smiled. "I'm sure we'll become close friends… Axel," he whispered in the empty room. -- -The End- A/N: Sorry for taking a while to update… and that this was so short o-o; Anyway, thoughts? Love it?
