When Triskix didn't answer I continued down the hall. I went around the corner the opened a portal to my room. I needed to get off my legs and relax. I opened the portal so it would open right on my bed and I wouldn't have to walk over to it.
So I was here before, in the organization I looked around at my room. I wonder if this used to be my old room.... But I must have left sometime... that must be what Haxni was talking about when she said I came to her with no memoires. But what would have caused that? As always I ended up with more questions. I rolled over onto my stomach My life is one hard jigsaw puzzle.
I got up and shuffled over to my window. My thoughts wandered over to how the search party was doing. The thought brought back the anger and I kicked the wall. It stayed their indented, taking in my blow. It didn't flinch or more away so I kicked it again and again until my foot hurt.
I was done with this. I unzipped my organization coat and through it on my bed. I changed out of my black cloths into something brighter, then I opened a portal to my hometown.
No one would miss me for now.
The first thing I saw when I was on the other side of the portal was the sun set. Alright I could feel myself relax as the sun warmed my face.
I wondered around the town for a while, revisiting all the places I had played at as a child before I joined the organization. I stumbled across the house me and Haxni used to live in before I left her to go on my own.
I realized I had been living a double life here; the first when I was created and the second after I left the original organization. It was a lot to think about at once.
After I while I opened a portal to the one place I wanted to see the most.
I portaled to the back side of the clock tower. I was covered by the shadow of the clock and so was the ground below. I slipped a foot off my flip flop and set in the stone, it was cool and hard... like the darkness.
I walked around the corner and I could see the sun from a certain angle. I had managed to come around the corner and light the side a little bit.
I turned the last corner and was in the light again. I could feel the sun warm my face again. It was warm here... like the light. I sat down and looked out over the town.
"What side do you think you belong on?" Came Axel's voice. It had startled me so much I almost fell off the ledge.
"Axel! What are you doing here?"
"What side do you belong to?" he said looking out over the town.
"What do you mean what side?"
"Of the clock tower, what side of the clock tower?"
"I... I don't know."
"Do you give up?" He still had yet to look at me.
"Suuure."
"We belong on the side. That’s what we are as nobodies, we walk in the twilight." He said. He turned his head and smiled at me. His face was just as I remembered it.
Axel," I said sighing, "what are you doing here?"
"I don't know, why you don’t tell me. After all you are imagining me."
Great now I'm talking to myself.
I scooted closer to him and leaned on his shoulder.
"So if you’re not here then why can I lean on you?"
He shrugged without an answer.
"So you really aren’t here? Well where did you go, you and the other twelve?"
"I only know as much as you know." There was a pause. "Why aren’t you at the castle finding out what happened to us?" He had brought back the question I had forgotten about when the other organization had attacked us.
What happened to the original 13?
"Because I.... I.... Axel, why don't you make sense? You come here and ask me things that aren’t important in this situation, then tell my you’re not real, and now you bring up more questions. The anger was beginning to fade away and was replaced with sadness.
"Don't pretend you have a heart." said a voice unheard by me before.
"Axel, I don-" I had suddenly fell over on my side. Axel was gone and I was alone again. I didn't move or cry the tears I wish I could. I just stayed there, unmoving, and watching the sun set like nothing should.
