18. [Lixel: The Day That Saved Us]

Axel walked out of a portal into an alley in Radiant Garden.

"I need to find her. I need to bring her back. I can't let her leave." he muttered to himself, walking out of the alley and into the street.

"Why would she do this?" he crossed his arms and looked around.

"I mean she's threatened to leave before, but she's never actually done it. Why would she now?" Axel glanced up to see four girl's standing outside a shop.

He eyed each one of them and much to his surprise, one of them was who he was looking for.

He quickly walked over to them, trying not to let any of them know he was there. He stopped behind the fairly short dark haired girl. He slowly placed his hands on her shoulders.

The girl looked up at him, her expression changed from confusion to anger.

"Go away, Axel. I'm not going back." she said, slowly walking away from him.

"Lixpra, stop! I really need to talk to you." Lixpra stopped.

She looked up and sighed.

"Guys, I'll meet you guys later. I just need to take care of this." The girls nodded and wished her luck with the situation.

Lixpra crossed her arms, looking up at him.

"What do you want?" she asked.

Axel grabbed her hand and pulled her away into an alley.

"Hey! Let go of me!" she screamed.

Axel did as she said.

"Sorry, I just wanted to talk to you somewhere more private." he said, crossing his arms.

"Whatever, just tell me what you need to tell me and go. I need to go find my friends." she said, angrilly.

"Why did you leave the organization?!" he shouted. Lixpra looked up at him almost in shock as he screamed.

"What the hell did we do to make you want to leave?! What is your reasoning behind it?! WHY DID YOU LEAVE ME?!" Axel had her cornered by the wall.

Lixpra watched him, in shock and fear.

"I-I... I just..." she started.

"Just fucking tell me!" Lixpra looked down.

"I'm sorry, Axel." she said, holding back tears.

She knew that leaving the organization really hurt him and she felt bad.

"I just couldn't take it anymore. I was tired of failing the missions Superior sent me on. Even the little easy ones. I'm the laughingstock of the organization. I'm a wimp, I can't fight. I hold everyone back in battle. I'm just not fit to be a member!"

"So because you're not fit to be in the organization, you had to leave me?!"

"I'm sorry! Dammit Axel! I don't deserve you, I never did and I never will! You have always deserved someone better than me! There is someone out there better for you than me!" Axel pushed her into a wall.

"Dammit, Lixpra! I don't want anyone else! I want you and only you!" Tears began to stream down Lixpra's cheeks.

"No you don't! I know that you know that deep down! You know that there is someone out there better than me!" Lixpra hung her head, trying to hide her tears.

"Lixpra.... look at me... please." he slowly grabbed her arms. Lixpra slowly looked up at him, her cheeks stained by her tears and her eyes were a little red.

"Stop crying...." Axel slowly leaned forward, Lixpra eyed him, wanting to pull away.

He kissed her, tightening his grip on her arms, not wanting to let her go.

Lixpra slowly kissed him back.

Axel slowly pulled away, leaning his forehead on hers.

"I love you..." he whispered.

A small smile creeped across Lixpra's face.

"I love you too..." Axel slowly wrapped his arms around her.

"Will you come back to the organization?" Lixpra slowly nodded, wrapping her arms around him.

"I'm sorry for leaving..." she said. Axel smiled.

"It doesn't matter now, you're coming back." Lixpra hugged him tighter.

"I'm not coming back, I'm coming home..."
