hey has anyone seen Axel lately?

he and I and our gods were supposed to go out and show off a little, kill a bunch of ayakashi.

But he's not responding to my messages??

I don't THINK i made him mad...

[he still doesn't know 8] ]

Maybe you should keep better track of your friends.

He's gone.

[moonfang]

Gone? Gone where?

private.

[flagitate]

He died.

private.

[moonfang]

What?! How?! Tell me! I'll kill them!

private.

[flagitate]

I don't know how. Sorry.

private;

[moonfang]

is there anything else you DO know?

private;

[flagitate]

Not really. If you're that desperate for information I'm pretty sure you'll be able to get it out of someone.

private;

[moonfang]

You're worthless

private;

[flagitate]

Wow, that really stings coming from a complete stranger.

[private]

[missingache]

Axel's gone. He's dead.

[private]

[moonfang]

[a loooong pause]

Dead?! He can't be dead. I was just... I was talking to him just a bit ago! Who the hell is responsible?!

[private]

[missingache]

I'm trying to figure that out. He wasn't himself when he talked to me.

Can you do me a favor and never ask your god about your past? You'll become an ayakashi.

[private]

[moonfang]

he


wait



you what



did that happen to him?!

[private]

[missingache]

Axel fought me till I told him. He was my best friend.

He turned into an ayakashi instantly.

Someone convinced him to do this. The Axel I know would have never done this unless someone convinced him and it benefited him.

[private]

[moonfang]

[a very long pause]


thats


whats what happens?

why dont they just TELL US THAT HOLY SHIT







if you find out

tell me

i want a piece of them

axel was one of the few people i liked here. i even trusted him a little. i wanted to do stuff with him and someone took that away from me. they will pay

[private]

[missingache]

They don't tell us a lot of things. They tell shinki even less than the gods. The one's who've been here longer should have warned us.

I think I know who did it, but I don't have proof. And if it's who I think it is, I might just be making an enemy with another god.

If I or the other person dies, there's no way anyone can hide that. You can have your revenge all you want then.

[He doesn't know just how dangerous the person in question is.]

[private]

[moonfang]

damn fucking right they should have! that's IMPORTANT SHIT. fuck.

i don't care if they're a god. i don't care WHO they are. I will tear them into pieces and scatter those pieces across this miserable world. but... he was your partner right? that gets you dibs. if you fuck up, i'll clean up your mess.

[private]

[missingache]

I think those anti-nora guys are gonna use this as an excuse to tell everyone what to do.

[That makes him about as mad as Axel being used the way he was.]

He was my best friend and one of my shinki.

Right. I'll try and leave them alive for other people to get a few hits in.

[private]

[moonfang]

him being a nora had nothing to do with this. nothing at all! and if they try and make that a sticking point, i'll stick my sword right up their asses.



don't go easy on them on my behalf. kill them. slaughter them. grind them into the dust. if you need a boost, you can give me a temporary name if you like. i give my gods unbelievable power

( o h )

Were you friends?

text;

[moonfang]

... Were? What's this "were" shit? We ARE friends. Or at least friendly.

[minogame]

sorry

( because that's all he can really say right now? )

he isn't here anymore

[moonfang]

what does that even mean? he vanished?

[minogame]

Smething bad happened and he's gone.

Everyone told me he won't come backk.

[moonfang]

something bad?! are you being vague on purpose? tell me!

[moonlitknight]

[ He doesn't know either. ]

How long have you been trying to look for him?

[moonfang]

About a day and a half. I know it doesn't seem long but be also doesn't seem the type to miss out on fun stuff.

[moonlitknight]

Sometimes people don't want to be found, fun or not.
Maybe you should give him another half a day.

[moonfang]

I guess I could. its just weird.

[moonlitknight]

Weird how?

[moonfang]

Just weird, alright? Why are you so nosy?

[moonlitknight]

You're agitated.

[ That much he can tell from that single response. ]

Don't make it so obvious if you don't want people to worry.

[ A friendly bit of advice because they are certainly not friends for Zero to worry over. ]

[moonfang]

[definitely NOT friends. Not at all]

If people want to worry then let them. I don't care. Maybe they SHOULD be worried

[moonlitknight]

[ He stares at that line. ]

Don't do anything stupid.

[ Most definitely not friends! Never gonna happen. ]

[moonfang]

[NEVER!]

what! I'm not planning on doing anything!

[punchpass]

I vaguely remember someone with that name being mentioned by Sora-sama. Do you want me to ask him? It could be that they are friends.

[moonfang]

Yeah if you could ask about him for me, that'd be great. Is this sora person a god?

[punchpass]

Yes, Sora-sama is a god, but he's very nice to me. He's helped me out a lot so far.

[moonfang]

He's not an old god, right? He's a new one?

[private]

[saikusu]

The post the other day about the very strong ayakashi that you were disappointed you didn't get to join the fight against?

That ayakashi was Axel.

[private]

[moonfang]

what


[zangetsu has never felt the emotion he is currently experiencing. It's like the entire world came to a scratching stop, a screeching halt, and his gut decided to keep going the same direction. Or even like there's a stone in his belly. He kind of wants to be sick]

i didn



i didnt know







how

[private]

[saikusu]

I don't know the full story. Sora might know? He's the one that called Leo and I to save him. I had to fight against Axel. He was strong, and barely recognizable. All that was left to tell it was him and not some random ayakashi, was one green eye and the teardrop tattoo underneath it.

If he was anything more than an acquaintance to you, be glad you did not have to fight him.

[private]

[moonfang]

[he just reads what is written here, stunned. It's... incredible. Incredibly awful. So awful that he doesn't have anything to say about it, not really. Instead;]

why wouldn't they tell us this. why wouldn't this be part of the orientation material? what the fuck

[private]

[saikusu]

Perhaps it's rare enough an occurrence that they thought it unnecessary to burden us with it upon arrival. Not that I agree.

[private]

[moonfang]

it sure is a better reason for not telling us about our pasts than the bullshit yukine was peddling.

"that's just how it is"

fuck

[private]

[saikusu]

It is. There's the possibility that even Yukine was in the dark about it, but I doubt it.

[private]

[moonfang]

he's an asshole so im sure he knew and just didnt want to say

[private]

[saikusu]

I wouldn't know. I've never spoken with him.

[Not technically, anyway. Asking a quick question while anon hardly counted.]
