can't you hear my screams?

[laying on the floor, eyes glazed over. his lips are parted in surprise, but no air passes between them. he's looks very dead... and he is. his skin is already cooling, a touch of blue decorating his lips]

((ooc: fearnoreaper is to blame for this. Axel's currently trapped in Hell, and can only be brought back by anyone who can bring back the dead.))

[still on the floor, though he's sitting up this time and breathing. running a shaky hand through his hair, he's simply relieved to be alive again, thanks to the god known as Death]

[has been searching for his Axel and Riku to talk to, to beg for them to take him back- hopefully with less begging, and --

--freezes]

[knowsyoursecret.livejournal.com]

[lol dead~]

[commandingly.livejournal.com]

[nothisnothis--]

'xel?

[knowsyoursecret.livejournal.com]

[dressed in track shorts and a skimpy tank, it's a good bet that this is your Axel]

[commandingly.livejournal.com]

[nonono, he can't be his Axel--!]

No, no--

[knowsyoursecret.livejournal.com]

[oh, but it is. see, his hair's even up in a messy ponytail, just like he wears when he's out training]

[commandingly.livejournal.com]

No no no!

[knowsyoursecret.livejournal.com]

[afraid so~]

[andthereis.livejournal.com]

[oh who's this standing off to the side, just looking at the body like this is a perfectly normal sight for him.]

[knowsyoursecret.livejournal.com]

[lays there, very much dead]

[andthereis.livejournal.com]

[no use talking to a dead person...at least not his corpse. Hell's exclusive, but being Death, he's got VIP status almost everywhere. Hello there, Axel's soul: you've got a visitor.]

Well, I haven't seen someone deliberately sent here for a while.

[knowsyoursecret.livejournal.com]

[starts. someone's talking to him?]

Heh, lucky me.

[andthereis.livejournal.com]

Yeah, you sure are. A one-way trip to Hell - who wouldn't want that? Free of charge, even.

Who was it?

[knowsyoursecret.livejournal.com]

The blond reaper. H-he promised to take the pain away... and then he sent me here.

[andthereis.livejournal.com]

Heh. Aren't we a little on the naive side.

[knowsyoursecret.livejournal.com]

If you knew what I've been going through, you'd understand!

[(Anonymous)]

Who's to say I don't?

[knowsyoursecret.livejournal.com]

[his face falls then, all the fight going out of him]

Touché. Did you come to mock me for my foolishness?

[andthereis.livejournal.com]

Not really. More like offer ya a way out.

[knowsyoursecret.livejournal.com]

How do I know this isn't some sick trick like the reaper played?

[andthereis.livejournal.com]

You really don't, but I don't need to lie. Everyone comes to me in the end anyways.

[knowsyoursecret.livejournal.com]

You'd give me back my life? No strings attached?

[there's that hopeful look again]

[andthereis.livejournal.com]

Except that this is your one and only freebie? Nope.

[knowsyoursecret.livejournal.com]

I really have no intention of repeating that mistake.

[manages a lopsided smile]

[andthereis.livejournal.com]

If you do, do it after your time.

[extends a hand to the other Axel, intending for him to take it]
