hey.

a few months ago I had draw this but I forgot to post it lol

                           “I see yer back again. Do ya like this place that much?”

Gajeel was mostly curious. Axel came and went at random, so he was surprised the other male was coming around a bit more often than he had been before. Not that the Dragon Slayer was complaining. He liked the others company, learning about the various other places the other had been was something he found interesting.

"I know what it likes to be in charge such as being the organization's assassin and having my own little gang myself."

Axel could tell that Sting seemed upset about the outcome that heartless might have slinked into his world unknowingly. The pyro wasn’t sure if it was true, but he had felt some dark presence in this world, so possibly that nightmare may have come true. “I wouldn’t be here if I didn’t think your world was affected. Unfortunately the only ones who can harm them are those with a special weapon.”

“Im a nobody that has the element of fire. Isnt’ this pretty redundant? I’m not here to cause any animosity for you. So whats with the curt short replies?” The red head folded his arms. Keeping his identity shrouded in mystery wasn’t that overbearing, but he still didn’t know if he could trust the mage.

Sting didn’t have a clue as to what a nobody was and still felt uneasy that the stranger had not removed his hood. Being on his guard was the only goal at the time especially after what he had endured. “If you had known what he had endured then you would understand. For all I know you could be here to cause some kind of trouble. If you want me to be more civil then the least you can do is reveal your identity.” He suggested and waited for his response. “Maybe then I’d be more willing to talk to ya.” 

“Fine, have it your way.” Axel stepped forward and pushed off the black leather hood that was hiding his features including his long crimson spiky hair. “There, now you should be happy, Blondie.”

Axel loved how Demyx’s carefree attitude was always high spirited when he was excited to be around him. He had a strong feeling that the mullet haired water player would love to sink his teeth into sea food. After all last time Axel’s choice was spicy food last time.. He knew when hanging out with Roxas he would always go for sea salt ice cream, as the key blade light user wasn’t much a of spicy food lover. So of course the flurry would accommodate with places to eat, but eating dessert was getting kind of old.  He only did that for Roxas most of the time because it made him happy. So he was glad that Demyx didn’t attempt him with sea salt ice cream.  

“Sounds good to me, Dem.” The red head smirked as he walked into the void of darkness.

Demyx didn’t know exactly where they were going, but sooner then later they would be feasting upon some seafood and he would make sure that happened if it meant bending the rules a bit with the use of his water if necessary. Arriving at the correct place, the melodious nocturne looked at the menu that was posted above for them to see. It wasn’t anything fancy, but this particular joint did have good seafood. After ordering a combo of fried fish, fried shrimp, and some hush puppies followed by corn on the cob and a soda, the ninth member paid, found a booth and waited for the eighth member to order his food. He fiddled with the napkin dispenser a few times and stretched his legs out to enjoy the booth. 

“Yer sure an interestin’ character. What brings ya to my guild? Yer not one of those crazy cultists I’ve been hearin’ about are ya?”

Gajeel eyed the man wearing the black cloak like clothing. He wasn’t wary of the other as he felt he’d seen him at least once before, but with the other having his hood over his face he couldn’t tell for sure. He didn’t feel threatened by him, but he was curious. The black and purple portal that the other had exited was his first sign that someone was approaching.

             “What was that thing ya came out of, and why did ya exit here of all places?”

“Its called the vortex of darkness a portal that allows me to travel across other dimensions. I don’t know, its a nostalgia feeling that ran through my mind  so I chanced it.” The nobody walked causally out of the void as it disappeared. 

Usually he was accustomed to the tunnel vision with his shrouded hood on, to avoid any disturbances or being nearly invisible like any spirit. However he didn’t see Gajeel as a threat so he pulled his hood off his face, brandishing his crimson colored flame long spikes. 

“For some reason I feel I may have been here before and as a spirit we can make ourselves invisible so no one could even detect our presence.” He noticed the dragon slayer was standing on top of the balcony. “I’m guessing you like the night. I always preferred the sun sets.”

Gajeel would cross his arms over his chest as he looked at Axel, he’d met the fire using redhead while out late one night. It was almost as if the other had just appeared within Magnolia. Not that, that was unheard of in the least. People showed up and vanished randomly on Earthland, so meeting someone unfamiliar was nothing new to the dragon slayer.

                                           “Where did ya say ya were from?”

He knew the two had met due to him having dropped his lacrima device out of his pocket, but he couldn’t remember if the other had actually ever told him where it was that he came from. He had magic, so there was little chance that he was from Edolas.

“Im from a different world that not many know actually exists. An in-between world called the World that Never Was. A realm where light and dark don’t actually exist.” The pyro knew that it was a complicated to explain, but it was the best way of trying to make sense of it to an outsider.
