"Pfff, I'm not worried.  We got this, huh?  Won't be long now before we're back home.  Oh--well--yeah, but, I dunno.  Maybe we'll rebuild.  Or we don't have to go there, we can go wherever we want to now!  So...just don't forget that, okay?

"Be careful, Isa."

Fakin' It

Early morning missions were usually such a pain, but Axel was excited.  That is--about as close to "excited" as a Nobody could legitimately get.  He accepted the expected assignment to the Enchanted Dominion and promptly spirited himself far into Maleficent's domain.

Supposedly, she was working on some other lair and had been away a lot.  So this was not quite as stupid as it could've been.

"Hey!"  Axel stuck his fingers in his mouth and whistled.  "Slackers!  That means you!"

Grunting, several pig guards and a few evil-eyed vultures looked his way.

"Whadd'ya call a horny bitch with green skin?"

Almost before he got the last word out someone was already firing an arrow at him.  Tough crowd.  Axel dodged it with an eel-like twist and took off, zigzagging along the way to avoid other projectiles.  He waited until he had a pretty sizable set of grunting, arrow-chucking pursuers before snapping his fingers and calling a lesser Nobody.

So far he only had one or two, so he had to be a little careful with them--but he was calling his the "Assassins," and he spoiled them outrageously.  They would always be loyal to Xemnas first, he knew--but that didn't mean he couldn't buy their temporary silence.  "Hey, quick favor?  Go get Saix.  Tell him I'm in all kinds of--"  He ducked sharply and an arrow whizzed by overhead.  "Trouble."

The Assassin's only response was to warp out of existence, and Axel leapt up a corner to get to a higher set of parapets, pausing to let an arrow go in front of him that had been calculated for his movement to that spot.  At this rate, he was almost gonna need Saix's hel--  "Wh--?!"  Well, tripping over the edge was about to slow him down, he figured.  But his hood caught on an outcrop and he jolted to a stop, dangling like a kitten by the scruff of its neck, and Axel squirmed with a frustrated yelp.  "Oh come on!"

"Hey.  So I was thinkin' in terms of a two-man recon sometime, you game?  I mean, it's not like I need the help and neither do you, buuuut I dunno it seems like it'd be kinda nostalgic.  Could even go for ice cream after!"

The broad, knowing smirk is supposed to mean he's kidding, but Axel couldn't be more serious.
