Chap 1: You're awake

'So, this what it feels like…?'

Axel thought while he spotted a black mist like gas seeping from his body. What is that? What just happened? Oh, that's right, he remembers now. He was dying.

'Doesn't feel so bad, I guess…'

Axel says though he commented the statement a second after.

'Like I ever had feelings in the first place…'

He was labelled as a hallow monster. No heart, no emotions, no past, no future and a meaningless present. A Nobody, An inhumane being without a purpose, materialized from the destroyed body of the monsters called the 'heartless' and human beings who lost their heart to the darkness while the bodies trasforms into a 'Nobody'. That's right, Axel was a nobody. Though he was different from other silver hallow shells, he was one of them nonetheless.

'For a minute there, I believed I could be an exception.'

He sighs. Axel considered himself as something unique, an exception to the rule. He has more human understanding than the rest of the members of the organization. Even Roxas hasn't an ounce of humanity when he was started in the group. Axel was different. Yet, it was still Roxas who was given a chance to have a heart. And also Namine, Well, he doesn't really know what she is but he guesses she was like him as well.

'A chance to have a heart…?'

Roxas and Namine are the only Nobodies to have one and to reunite with their somebodies. Don't get him wrong, he's happy for them. Then, what does that leave him? Wasn't he well deserving? Wasn't he special? Can't he reunite with his human self?

'Wait…'

Now, he thinks about it for the first time. Who is his human self? If Roxas is Sora and Namine is Kairi, then what does that leave him? Riku, no, he lost his body before but managed to contain himself in Ansem.

'Who am I, then?'

He wondered while he fluttered his eyes closed. As he faded away into nothingness, Axel caught the last glimpse of the pure white surroundings as well as a hand reaching out to him. There was a blurry image of a female brunette. She was looking down on him. The girl flashed a gentle smile before extending her hand to Axel like she was asking him to stand.

"You're awake." She whispered just enough for him to hear. Her words were low yet echoed through his mind like a strong wave of dark energy. Though Axel has not the slightest idea who this lone stranger is, he reached for her hand. Suddenly, his vision went bright.

"Doctor! Doctor!" Axel heard a frantic call.

'Where am I?'

He opens his eyes slowly. And what he saw was a vogue image of panicking people in ivory clothing. Axel heard about 3 people but from the noise in the background he thinks it's about 5 or 6 of them in the room.

'What the hell is going on?'

He finally gains just enough vision to see the people in ivory. They were nurses and a doctor. Axel tried to think why they were here but his brain function hasn't fully recovered though he can tell what they were doing. One of nurses was preparing silver tools in a tray. The other was right next to him while she brushed wet cotton on Axels arm before impaling with a sharp needle and injecting yellow fluids. He didn't mind because the sting hasn't settled in his mind yet. And there was the doctor holding a clip board and flipping through papers while consulting a nurse next to him.

'Why are they here?'

Axel's eyes narrowed at medical workers. The one consulting with doctor spots the confused and dark gaze he gave. So, she excuses herself and walks over to him. She gently brushes away the red stray locks from Axel's face before cupping his right cheek. The nurse smiles warmly and whispers in the sweetest voice.

"Everything we'll be alright, Alexander."

'Alexander? No, my name is Axel…'

With a weak glare, he was even more confused than before. Where was he? What are these people doing here? Why is he being called Alexander? The nurse leaves a second later and waves to another nurse to open the door.

"Is he really awake, Doctor!" Axel painfully turns his head and was caught by a frail looking woman. She was a slightly tall, short brunet hair with emerald eyes and a middle aged appearance. She wore simple orange dress with designer green patterns. He's never seen this woman in his life and yet when the lady's gaze locked with his, it sparked an odd feeling.

"Alexander!" She cried to him. Tears in her green eyes, she immediately rushed to Axel's side, took his hand and caresses it against his complexion.

"Don't worry, dear. Mommy is right here."

'Mommy?'

Axel's eyes widened of this new found discovery. He had a mother he never knew. That's impossible. Nobodies have no mother. Therefore, he wanted to make sure this wasn't a dream. Still weak and slightly paralyzed, He cups the woman's cheek and wipes her falling tears with his thumb. True enough, she was warm and her tears were wet. This is no dream…

"That's right, Alex, it's me your mother, Malabeth."

"M-Malabeth…?" Axel uttered his first word.

Malabeth spreads a relieved smile on her face. More tears rolled down her cheeks. Axel sees this and smiles as well. Not sure why but it seemed the best thing to do at the time. He kind of liked it. No one worried for him this much or even showed this particular emotion. And Malabeth, Axel's so called mother, cried for him. He feels the tingle of delight. A sensation only a mother can provide.

"It was a complete success, ma'am. The Elixir worked perfectly. It was a risk but your son is finally awake." The doctor explained but the woman couldn't care less.

"Thank you, doctor." She said with the utmost gratitude.

"No, ma'am, thank you. You and your son have proven the effectiveness of the experimental Elixir. Now, we can share this medicine with the world."

Axel was dumbstruck for a few seconds. It showed in his face. He still tried to make heads or tails if this was just an illusion.

"Alex, I want you to meet your sister."

'I have a sister too?'

"She's grown a lot since you last saw her though but she's the same little sister you've known and loved."

Malabeth calls a girl from the door. And that's when Axel was really stung.

'It's her…!'

She was the same girl he saw before he woke up, the time he was about to disappear. The same brunet hair and the same face only clearer, even her smile was as warm when he first saw her. Dark brown reaching her chest, the girl gazes at Axel with those green tear filled eyes. Her cheeks were pink and face was pale from the relief, she ran to him and gave a heated embrace. She almost crushed him with her weight but Axel managed.

"Big brother! It's me!"

'Who…?'

"Your sister!"

He had no clue but she looked so familiar it burnt him. The rush of confusion and newly discovered family members were giving him a head ache. His temples were throbbing like he was hit with bricks.

"Come now, Olette, Your brother is tired." Malabeth said as she hugged both of them tight.

'Olette?'

Wasn't she one of Roxas' friends? He remembers now. When Axel was part of the organization to observes Roxas progress, he would always see her with him. She and her friends would frolic and explore the vast areas of Twilight town. Eating sea salt ice cream and watching the sun set, she would always standout in Axel's eyes, besides Roxas. Her warm smile, her dark brown hair and stunning green eyes, he thought she was someone to treasure. Axel felt she was someone important and special. He doesn't know why in particular back then. I guess it makes sense now…Right?

Malabeth kissed Olette's cheek and drew away from the red head before turning to the doctor.

"When can we take our Alexander home?" The mother asked with a smile upon her face.

"There still a few test we'd like to run before we can let him go. But It's best to send him home to regain some of his memory and to exercise his system. It's the wisest thing to do for a rare patient who was in a coma for 3 years."

'A coma!'

Comatose for 3 years? Axel doesn't remember that at all. All he knows, he was a nobody, a monster. He was has fire magic and use 2 chakrams and he was a part of this organization...Wait…?

'What was I doing in an organization? Organization…? What was the name again? I know It's something simple…'

Axel tried to remember the name of the group he was in. But, nothing came to his mind. Not even the purpose why he was there in the first place. Maybe it was just the fatigue blocking his memory.

"Alright, doctor. How about tomorrow?" Malabeth suggested.

"That would be fine." He agreed handsomely.

"Alex, darling, Me and Olette will pick you up first thing in the morning. We'll be having a big bash and prepare your favourite foods and sweets. Does that sound fine?"

The red head nothing left to say to her. And apparently, he doesn't have the brain power to. So, he just nods and relaxes in his bed.

"Rest now, my son…" With a soft kiss on the forehead, she whispered and left with his sister.

Axel closes his eyes from the exhaustion not knowing a nurse was injecting the yellow Elixir into his arm.
