Tribute to Axel
Face it, everyone. He's the Nobody who is one of the more loved and well-received ones of the bunch. And adding a little element of mystery to Kingdom Hearts, it is his actions often leave us puzzled and guessing of what future events Kingdom Hearts holds for us.
Last but not the least is his catchphrase which left a lasting mark on us. "Got it memorized?" And perhaps, being the least Nobody-like of the Organization, maybe... just maybe he can still be saved.
"My thoughts exactly! If you have a dream, don't wait. Act. One of life's little rules. Got it memorized?"
"But don't waste your time. We Nobodies can never hope to be Somebodies."
"You have lose sight of the light within the darkness. And it seems that forgotten that you forget."
"Just what I'd expect from the Keyblade master. But be forewarned... When your sleeping memories awaken, you may no longer be who you are now."
The Eighth Elegy
Fading Embers
(To Axel, The Flurry of Dancing Flames.)
He grinned,
Staring at the sunset sky.
He turned to look at his side and...
Was about to call for his friend...
When he remembered that he was by himself.
Of course,
He was on a mission,
Was he not?
But...
If he carried out his orders like he was asked to,
Would he...
Would he indeed...
Have his best friend back?
But...
Would Roxas approve him...
Doing this?
Committing such...
Such...
Such unspeakable atrocities.
Such acts...
That he couldn't have done originally in the first place.
Striking down fellow members...
Was this...
Was this what Roxas would want?
But...
Maybe he'd understand.
Understand...
Understand that he had no choice himself.
Besides,
That's what friends do, right?
But then again,
What if...
Axel grimaced to get that feeling out of his head.
He was a Nobody.
He wasn't supposed to feel like this.
Well, not at least he gets his heart back.
But...
No. Now's not the time to contemplate on that.
He had to do this mission by himself.
Although he could feel something heavy in his chest,
No.
It's impossible.
It can't be.
No.
He had to focus.
He had to put on his game face.
He had to.
Or else.
I nearly totally forgot that I had this collection of poems still going. I'm so sorry, people. By the way, I just gave away major spoiler for you guys. There is hope to save Axel!... in the future games! Hehehe. This poem is a little too one-sided. I'm also sorry for that. It's been a while really that I've written for Kingdom Hearts. But anyways, I hope Axel's elegy came out okay if not great. And well, expect Demyx's like about... next month? Hehehe. I procrastinate a lot.
Anyways, review please. Makes me feel like I have angel wings. (Yeah, I know I am crazy but... well, whatever. Hahahaha.)
