ROOOOXXXAAAASSS!!!, Open to anyone in the vicinity

[XRX]

"RROOOOXXXAAASSS!!! BBAAASSSTTAAARRRDDDD!!!!" Axel screamed at the top of his lungs as he stood on the ledge of the clock tower where Roxas would usually have ice cream. He never really understood the flavor of Salty-Sweet ice cream, he just assumed everyone except him was crazy. As Roxas had left him for Port Royal, Axel had been unable to track him since Roxas had apparently masked his trail effectively. "Where IS he!? I find him, get him to join Organization XIII again, AND HE RUNS OFF!!!" He thought in his head as he crossed his arms and tapped his foot on the ground angrily. He had thought that since Roxas seemed to love this shoddy little town, he would attempt to reconnect with his friends and maybe see if they had any memory of him, despite his Twilight Town being fake. Occasionally, a person noticed the crazy man in black, appearing to be looking for something on top of the tower and sometimes screaming obscenities to the air, but most actually shrugged this off as teenage angst.

"Maybe I could find one of his old friends and ask if they've seen him... what was the girl's name... Hayner?" He asked himself as he scratched his chin and raised an eyebrow while a hand went to his hip. Axel was never good at remembering people, he mainly only remembered Roxas, his superiors, vaguely Sora, Namine, DiZ and the odd man who tried to sell him sea-salt ice cream. He really hated Sea-Salt ice cream. "DAMNIT!! How do I get his attention..." He hissed to himself as he kept scratching his chin in thought while a Creeper waddled by him. Of course, as with all great ideas, Axel's came to him instantly as he summoned several more with a smile. They all stood next to him in a straight line on either side, standing up straight as two Dark Doors were opened on the end of each line where more Creepers would waltz in.

Axel, smiling widely, snapped his fingers and immediately they all rolled into soccer-ball sized silver balls, just waiting to be thrown. "RROOOOOOXXXAAAAASSSSSSS~!!!!" He yelled as he grabbed the nearest Creeper to him and immediately gave it the properties of an Assassin, along with it's self destruct ability. MAINLY the self-destruct ability. He set the thing on fire with his own powers, and immediately, with the vigor and speed of a machine gun, Axel began to rain exploding nobodies down onto poor Twilight Town with a devilish smile and still sexy composure.

"ORAORAORAORAORA!!" (Translation from Japanese: "THERETHERETHERETHERETHERE!")

[Mickey]

Mickey didn't have time to really continue his chat with Sora and the others, since fireballs began raining down on everybody. One came close to them and another was aimed right at them. Mickey jumped in the way, keyblade out, and blocked the fireball. His keyblade produced a light barrier and protected him from any harm. He then noticed the fireball was a creeper, a lower nobody, that was set on fire. Not long after making contact with the barrier, the nobody exploded, sending Mickey flying back and skidding to a halt. He got up, not having taken as much damage thanks to the barrier, and looked up to the Clock Tower, where the fireballs were coming from. He saw a man with red hair throwing the nobodies and noticed he was wearing an Organization cloak. An Organization member! I gotta stop him!

Mickey held out his hand and sent a ball of light flying at the man on the Clock Tower, in an attempt to stop him. He then began making a run for the tower to try and figure out what they were doing and why they were terrorizing Twilight Town.

[Sora]

Before Sora's questions could be answered, fireballs came raining down on the group. As soon as Mickey began to intercept them, the trio of friends rushed to get Hayner, Pence, and Ollete to safety. It was almost as if it was a planned defense maneuver. The chemistry between the the four (Sora, Donald, Goofy, and Mickey) was truly an amazing thing to watch. It was almost as if they all knew what the others were doing. Sora looked at Donald and Goofy, and the two nodded. Sora ran off and stopped beside Mickey, Keyblade in hand. Donald prepared to cast any defensive spells, and Goofy stood in front shield at the ready.

"What the is going on!!! Ever since i woke up I've been running into lunatics...." Sora stated, looking up at the clock tower seeing a figure dressed in black.

[XRX]

"Eh?" Axel went as he stopped firing and raised an eyebrow at the small light he saw streaking towards him. As the light streaked nearer, Axel soon noticed that it was actually magic as it's shine suddenly closed the Dark Doors he had opened up and scared away the Creepers. Uttering a swear to himself, Axel brought out his Chakrams and put himself into a guarding stance, minimizing the damage the ball of light did as it exploded on contact with him, a small scratch dealt while he was sent backwards towards the clock tower wall. "Who did that!?" He asked as he looked near the source to find a small figure in a black cloak wielding a keyblade. At first, he thought it may have been Roxas, but the overly small figure along with the giant ears told him it was someone else. Paying no attention to Sora, who he hadn't seen since he was focused on Mickey, Axel jumped straight off the building, keeping close to it's wall as he then righted himself and began to run along it, using the wall to gather momentum as small flames began to appear in his footsteps.

"Bring it on SITR-FRY!!" Axel roared as he immediately set both his Chakrams on fire and threw them towards Mickey, still running down to meet him at the ground as he kept gathering speed. He had remembered something about a spy, but wasn't sure of it. He would have to ask Superior about it later.

[Mickey]

As Mickey closed in on the tower, two flaming objects were flying right at him. He launched a light orb to reflect one, and knocked the other away with his keyblade. As Mickey got closer to the man, he recognized him. It was Axel, the eighth nobody of Organization XIII. Mickey knew that he specialized in fire, and it had become bluntly obvious from the exploding, flaming nobodies as well as the flaming objects he threw. Mickey stopped about ten feet away from the bottom of the tower and got into a defensive stance. He watched Axel's descent down the side of the tower and when he got close, Mickey mentally prepared himself for a fight, but was going to try and avoid it. He didn't want any more damage to Twilight Town, seeing as it had already taken a big enough blow from Sephiroth killing most, if not nearly all, of the citizens that lived here.

"Axel! Why are you attacking Twilight Town? Did your superiors put you up to this?"

[Sora]

Sora ran up to Mickey, Keyblade in hand, and stood beside him looking at a man with red hair. "Axel? You know that creep?" He asked Mickey, as he stood in his usual combat stance, waiting to dodge anything that cam his way.

(Sorry its really short....i just want to get things moving.....)

[XRX]

Axel caught his chakrams as they flew back to him and shouted "Why should you know, ya little imp!?" as he vaulted off the building to land in front of Mickey, ten feet away. Immediately, he shifted into his stance, keeping himself loose in order to watch for any surprises. Unfortunately, he got one. Right in front of him was Sora, the boy who had almost made Roxas disappear. Knowing that keyblade masters always tried to protect the innocent, Axel smirked happily as he set his left chakram on fire, spinning it on his finger. "Creep is such a painful word..." he began, as the spinning became faster and faster.

"Trryyy YOUR EXECUTIONER!!!" He shouted quickly as he threw one chakram at Sora and then dashed for Mickey with the other, going for a horizontal slash at the mouse.

[Mickey]

Mickey wasn't sure which to aim for first when Axel launched his two attacks. It was confusing, but he quickly knew what to do, and his body acted on it's own to do it. He launched a ball of light at the first chakram, successfuly hitting it and knocking it to the ground. Of course, by the time Mickey looked back at Axel, he was so close Mickey barely had time to act. Not being able to block in time, Mickey did a backwards roll out of the way. Then, after getting out of the roll, Mickey charged Axel with the keyblade, aiming to get a horizontal slash and knock the other chakram out of his hands.

[Sora]

Sora prepared to parry the chakram that was flying at him, but before he could, Mickey did it, and then was forced to dodge, and attempt a counter attack. Sora took this opportunity and also charged at Axel, from the side, timing it so, if Axel dodged Mickey's attack, then Sora had time to correct himself and make it difficult for Axel to dodge his attack.

[XRX]

As soon as Mickey knocked away the first Chakram, it was already soaring back to Axel's waiting hand as Axel slashed at Mickey lightly, knowing that the force of blocking would send him back slightly. As the chakram and keyblade made contact, Axel felt the force begin to kick in and kicked off the ground to land about 3 feet away from Mickey. As Sora came in, Axel set his chakrams on fire, as they brimmed with power and actually became a bit larger than usual. He then put his hands to the side and sent out a small flame burst all around him, not made to to any real damage by it was difficult to dodge and could break the stance and stop attacks from coming in. "WHERE'S ROXAS!?" He screamed as the wave went out.

[Mickey]

By a strange coincidence, when Axel jumped away from Mickey, Mickey jumped away from Axel. Good thing too, since the wave was easly to jump over by the time it got to him. As mentioned, he jumped over the wave and stood in a defensive stance. It was then that his brain processed what Axel had said.

"Roxas? Who's Roxas? Is he one of your Organization too? Or is he someone you are wanting to turn into one of you?" he asked quite loudly. Mickey had figured out plans based on his answer. If it was an Organization member, he would have to find out why he was so important. If it was someone he wanted to turn into a nobody, then he would need to find this Roxas and protect him.

[Hayner]

Hayner grumbled as he and his friends were 'being protected' by the newcomers, as another freakshow made himself known in Twilight Town. His fists clenched, and he resisted the urge to shout something at the new guy- he wasn't sure about this King Mickey fellow, but he seemed nice enough, and if this new guy with the chakrams was an enemy of his, then he must not be good at all. One thing was for sure, when he and Pence and Olette had made plans to go to the beach, they had not planned to have their town destroyed, nor did they plan to have so many weirdo's show up in one day.

"Who is this guy...why are all these people showing up and wreaking havic on the town?!" The boy said it to no one in particular, and began walking back and forth behind Donald and Goofy, unable to do anything. With the mention of Roxas however, Hayner stopped his pacing, and looked at the guy apparently named Axel.

It was a strange feeling...Hayner felt like he should know this name, yet at the same time, knew he didn't. There was no face that sprung to his mind at the name, no memory of meeting them, or seeing the name posted anywhere. Yet, for some reason, he had this feeling that the name should be familiar..."Roxas...Roxas..."

[Sora]

Donald and Goofy continued to guard the three kids, as the fight raged on. "King Mickey sure is a good fighter..." Donald stated, amazed at the fight. Goofy didn't respond, instead, he heard Hayner. "Gwarsh...I don't know who he is...But i'm sure King Mickey, and Sora could beat him..." He assured Hayner.

Sora managed to cast Aero quickly as the flames got larger, he wasn't able to dodge, but the spell prevented the attack from hitting him. Now, in a defensive stance beside Mickey, was listening to the short conversation that they were having. "Roxas....." That name....its....familiar....

[Roxas]

A female figure appeared in the shadows of an alleyway. The entrance to the alley was not far from where Hayner and co. were at the moment. She smirked and walked out of the alley, taking a moment to adjust herself to the light of day, before making her way over to Hayner and the others. She stood behind him for a moment, listening to the conversation with the dog-like creature, the duck, and Hayner. It was about the point where Donald was commenting on the King. Amaya shuddered at the mention of him. Ugh...that cursed King...he is a major problem...but Sora's here too...if I can take them both out...that takes care of two major problems in the way of my goal. She smirked as this plan came to mind. She walked passed the group, heading towards the fight, giving Donald, Goofy, and Hayner all a clear view of Nobody's Key, which was secured on her back. Her katana was on her hip, the side that was also the side of her outfit that was torn.

She arrived at the battlefield not long after Axel had sent out the wave of fire. She decided to keep her real identity a secret from Sora and Mickey for as long as possible, and did not summon any heartless. She also noticed a man with flame colored hair wearing a black cloak. She figured he was a member of Organization XIII. She was about to begin speaking to the fighting trio when suddenly three Dusks appeared and attacked her. She quickly drew her katana and sliced through all three, causing them to disappear. She kept her katana at her side and looked over at the red haired man, who she was beginning to recognize from researching the Organization. She smirked and had a cocky look on her face, one eye covered by her hair.

"Hey you, with the red hair, you're Axel right?" she paused, looking over at Mickey and Sora, "and you two must be Sora and Mickey. The name's Amaya, and I think I have something you three might be interested in..." she ended her sentence, quickly pulling Nobody's Key off her back and twirling it on one finger, stopping and resting it, the blade resting on her shoulder.

[XRX]

"Like you would ya damn rodent!" Axel shouted to Mickey as he spun a Chakram idly in his right hand. He was already sick of this town and it's antics, and most of all the damn mouse. He was going to charge up a finisher when someone called out his name and he looked to see Amaya and raised an eyebrow at her. She seemed normal, albeit a little dark until she pulled out Nobody's Key with that cocky smile on her face. Axel's eyes opened wide for a second before he turned to her and pointed, asking "Now what would a little girl like you being doing with a keyblade?" smirking in his own fiery way as sparks issued from his hands randomly. Axel loved surprises. Another apparent keyblade wielder, and such a dark one at that would only be good for the organization.

"Roxas already IS one of us Mickey, and the moment you saw Sora he had already been born!" Axel smirked at the mouse as flames began to gather around his chakrams as he pulled back his hands and got ready to fight a more energetic battle. "Now then... I could either make mouse kabobs..." Axel seethed as he looked at Mickey while his eyes gleamed red "Or maybe I could try roasted duck, dog, boy, or even girl today... Hmmm... you choose for me..." He laughed, mocking them as he waited for whatever would come to him.
