"Axel hasnt spoken since that incerdent at the house"
"And Vexen has no idea why he passed out"
Xemnas frowned at the two youngest nobodies. Lixl kept shifting from foot to foot nervously. Roxas was standing with his hands in his pockets. "I think we may need to find that heartless." Lixl looked up at Roxas alarmed. "But sir! Dont you think thats highly dangerous!?" "You two are my best. Even if your the youngest. I'm sure you can handle her. Dismissed." Lixl grabbed Roxas' hand and stormed out. "I CANT BELEAVE HIM!" She ranted as they walked back to Axel's room. "Why cant HE do it!?" "Because we're the ones in charge of this report?" "DONT remind me.." Roxas pushed the door open to see Axel off his bed and in a plaid shirt, jeans and boots. The goggles on his head, hair tied back in a pony tail. "I'm coming with you." He said looking at the two teens. His vioce horse from under-use. "Axel! You can speak then!" Lixl cheered. Axel smiled wearily. "How did you know..." Roxas started. Axel nodded to a nobody behind the door. "I was spying on you... sorry." Roxas smiled slightly. "Its alright... We better go and get changed Lix." "Can I pose as your girlfriend while we're there Roxxy?!" She grinned linking arms with him. Roxas looked at her then at Axel for help. Who just shrugged smiling. "Erm... sure... we need to act normal anyway...  If thats possible..." Roxas finished leading her out.

They met back at Axel's room nearly an hour afterwards. Lixl had insisted this since she 'wasnt ready'. Although, Roxas was slightly suprised when she opened the door. It didnt look like the Lixl he knew. She never wore makeup, yet she had the faintest bit of blusher across her cheeks, and her hair was down, like normal, yet some was linked up at the back with a clasp, two strands eather side of her face, framing it. And mascara framing her pale green eyes. The dress she was wearing was simple, a white flowing one which hugged her hourglass figure perfectly. A loose black belt was round her waist holding, from what he could tell, munny, potions and her blindfold. The only thing, he really recognised was the dragon amulet round her neck. Other then that, she looked compleatly different. He on the other had was just in a his normal informal stuff. "Come on then Roxxy!" Lixl chimmed grabbing his arm and dragging him to Axel's room.
Axel was sat on his bed staring at his hands. Lixl poked her head in. "Hey Big Red." Axel looked up and smiled. "Hey.." Lixl dragged Rox in after her standing next to him, her arms wrapped around his left arm. "Dont you two look sweet." He cooed. Roxas scowled, yet Lixl blushed. "Stop teasing us. You ready?" Axel nodded numbly. "As ready as I'll ever be..."

When they arrived at the house the bitter smell and taste of Darkness was heavier in the air then a month previous. Even Lixl oughed as they got near the house, and her element WAS Darkness, well, shadow. Axel stuck his head into the house he could feel [i]her[/i] pressance in the house somewhere, but where? Lixl looked at the hallway then pulled her blindfold out a pouch and put it on. "Guys... Its really bad round here..." She mummbled nerovusly. She could see the darkness with her blindfold on, even though the boys couldnt. "Lix we have to." Roxas said summoning his keyblades. "We go in, chop her to peices, then leave." "I want to get rid of the darknes first... if we leave the place like this... she could come back." "Okay. We, go in, chop her up, Lix clears the place up and we leave." Axel nodded, his vioce trapped in his throat. "Where is she Lix?" "Upstairs I think...Its really confusing..." Lixl was looking around and steped past Axel into the hall. "Come on.." She motioned for the boys to follow, swallowing her 'fear'. Everyone knew nobides didnt have feelings.. Both boys followed close behind.
The upstairs was like downstairs, grey and moth eaten. The white paint had faded and started to crack and peal, the woodwork was damp and clearly eaten away at by mites and woodworm. From the landing the bathroom was just to the left of the stairs, and a short hall ahead led to a room filled with what looked like rusted metal and tools, the last thing Ael had been working on.
From where Lixl could see from, the bathroom had been white as well. Yet there was rot on the wooden flooring, the tiles where cracked and some had fallen off and shattered. The bath had cracks in it too, the once shiney taps, now rusted and dim.
To the left was a study, rows of books lined one shelf, a computer desk next to it. A copy of "The workings of motorbikes" lay open ontop of it. Its pages yellow with age, the ink faded from the sunlight that filtered in through the now grimy and shattered windows.
To the right was the bedroom. The door was slightly open and the strong smell of darkness wafted from it like the smell of a newly baked apple pie. Lixl nodded to the bedroom and slowly walked forwards, but before she ever got to the door it swung open and the tall brown haired girl flew out and went straight for her throat. Roxas dove between them and inbedded Oathkeeper into Lile's chest. She screamed, and looked at Axel, yet he didnt move, he was, to be honest, terrified. "Axel...?" She wispered. Her vioce was gentle, enchanting, even Roxas froze for a second. The only person seemingly not effected was Lixl. "Roxas! Axel! Wake up!" She screamed looking from one to the other. Darkness was dripping out of the hole in Lile's chest as she pulled herself off the keyblade. Roxas was still staring, not moving. Axel was trembling. Lixl threw Roxas out the way and round housed Lile in the head, darkness creeping up Lixl's legs and forming armor of the blackest ink. Lile stumbled back, her gaze beingr rippedaway from Axel. Axel dove forwards and grabbed Lixl. "Stop it!" "AXEL!" Lixl rounded on him, pushing him away. "It seems like I'm gonna be the ONLY one who will fight. Your both sitting around like prized melons!" During this whole argument Lile had moved forwards, towering over the 5'2 teen. and just as she was about to plung her fist into the back of Lixl's head, Roxas moved and threw his keyblade threw her shoulder. Lixl moved just in time for Lile to fall into Axel's arms. "Shit.." Lixl mummbled under her breath, backing against Roxas. Roxas grabbed her wrist, she could feel him shaking. "Lix, start getting rid of the darkness.." He wispered in her ear. Lixl nodded and very carfully started gathering the darkness inside her, using herself as a magnet.
Axel stared down at the girl in his arms. She was smiling slightly, a trickle of black blood running down from the corner of her mouth. "I've.. only wanted to say..... Good bye...." She wispered. "Good bye Lile..." Axel managed to wisper clutching the fading figure to his chest. "I love you.." They both wispered togeather as Lile faded into darkness. He slipped to his knees, the smell of her perfume was heavy in his sences. The smell of faintest Lily of the vally and lavander. He closed his eyes. tears cascading down his cheeks like streams through a brook. Lixl was leaning against Roxas, exhausted, she had managed to take in all the darkness in the house, but now it was eating away at her insides. "Axel... I'm sorry you've lost her, but we need to get Lix back to to the castle." Axel nodded numbly and rose to his feet. "Let me get something." He said quietly going into the bedroom and grabbing a small box. Placing it into his pocket before going out to help Roxas with Lixl.

"Wheres Lixl?"
"Shes resting.."
"Is she alright now?"
"Xemnas got rid of most of the darkness, and left her with her own darkness in her, so she should be alright now.."
"Rox? Are YOU alright?"
"Hm? I'm fine."
"You seem out of it to me.."
"i'm tired. Thats all."
"Lier."
"Shut it Red."
"Admit it. You like her."
"Do not."
"Yeah you do."
"Axel, just becuase your cheery doesnt give you permission to bug the hell out of me while I'm trying to do my report."
"You like her! You do dont you?!"
"Ow.. Your deafening me..."
"Come on Blondy! Admit it!"
"No. Because theres nothing to admit."
Axel looked at Roxas from the bed. A smile on his face. And he could see from here that Roxas was actually blushing. "Admit it." Axel said, tilting his head.
"Nothing to admit."
"If so, why are you blushing?"
Roxas didnt reply and just acted busy. "Come on Rox. She likes you too." Roxas looked at him for a second. "You know what the others are like though, they would take that piss."
"I wont though."
"....fine... I like her.."
Axel smiled. He finally got the answer he wanted. He had noticed Roxas leaving his room regually to cheak on Lixl about every 2 hours. "I think Ill leave you alone to go and cheak on your girlfriend." Rox nodded and blushed slightly. "Get out Red." He said, smiling jokingly.

The End.
Finally finished this. Contains one swear word. XD
