Roxas sighed as he was foced to sit through another boring class. This was just getting annoying. But it wasn't like he could sneak out. The guards wouldn't let him. They never let him have any fun. Not now or when he was a child.

When the class was finally over, he got up and ran out of the room. He was pretty fast, so he was sure that nobody would catch him. He went carefully around the corners, making sure nobody was nearby. Then took off again.

He was going to do it this time. He was going to runaway and not come back. It wasn't like his father cared, right? He was always to busy to spend time with him. Besides, he wasn't as good as the first born son, Cloud. Or his amazing sister Namine. So why should he care.

{{I made Cloud and Namine related, if that's fine. It makes things more interesting to me.}}

[[OOC: That's fine. They were asking for it anyway, since they looked so similiar XDD.

Just so you know, I'm not going to make Axel's set of pirates stereotypical ones with the whole 'Land lubbers' and the shebang. I'd like to think some of the pirates were quite intelligent. Anyhow, most of the Organization XIII will be pirates in Axel's crew except for a few.]]

Donning himself in one of the many disguises he has come to accumulate over the years, Axel sighed in frustration as he button the last button of the regal looking black coat that was above his vest and shit. The redhead always hated how stiff and stuffy the clothes the nobles of various lands wore. It was easy to overheat under the many layers and as much as Axel liked heat, he much rather be the one giving it than be on the receiving end. Finally getting the last of the jacket done, Axel finsihed off his disguise using some white cosmetic powder that he had pillaged from his earlier travels.

"Captain will you going now?" a husky but monotonous voice asked from behind him. Recognising the voice to be that of Zexion his ship's Quartermaster, Axel turned to regard the serious male's question with a smile.

"Of course, else that she-devil of a woman Larxene, will throw a fit." The redhead chuckled at the silver-haired male's discomfort. Heading out of his cabin and passing the silver-haired male at the doorway and gave him his instructions, "Be sure that the crew bring attention to themselves and blow our cover, Zexion." And with that Axel boarded off his ship, The Eternal Flames, greeting and regarding his fellow crew with a nod, smile or greeting depending on the person as some went off to the tavern to have fun whereas others stayed behind to load their shipment and cargo of food onto the ship.

Axel went behind the Tavern where he was suppose to meet that 'she-devil' who had some information for him for his next trip to the neighbouring country. The kingdom he and his crew were currently in was just a pit stop from their previous trip which lasted for several weeks.

{{That's perfectly fine with me.}}

Roxas managed to get outside the castle without anybody noticing him. Now the problem would be the gates. It wasn't like he was going to be gone long. At least, that's what he normally told the guards. But he still would need an escort should he leave. And that was something he didn't want. He could run away with them following him.

The Prince thought for a moment. How was he going to distract them. He had to think of something good or the guards are going to figure it out. And they couldn't see him while it happened.

He eventually decided on a commotion on the other side of the gates. That wasn't to hard to arrange. Once he finally managed to get the guards to leave their posts, he slipped out of the gates. From here on, he could go anywhere. Their castle was close to the ocean and the beach. And that was one of his favorite places. But, as much as he wanted to go, that would be the first place that is checked.

Instead, he headed into town. He would take a quick look around and find someone to take him someplace far away so that he would never have to come back. That would make things so much easier for him.

((I'm apologise profusely for forgetting our rp! I was having a hard time trying to find this rp amongst many other things. Will you ever forgive me? OTL))

"So that's what they are planning now?" Axel asked leaning against the adjacent wall of the alleyway. His arms were crossed and his usually laidback expression was forgone for a more serious one with the edge of worry if one looked his face closely. If what the blonde woman said was true than it'll be troublesome to traverse the sea and get caught in the crossfire between the currently warring nations.

"If the knights that come here say so, I would like to think they are correct." The blonde answered, as she leaned on the door frame of the back entrance to the tavern. But she then shrugged her bare shoulders, a indifferent expression painted her deceptively demure face. "But then again, drunk men would spout nonsense just to please the girls here." With that she turned her back to the red haired pirate and headed inside as her the owner of the tavern called her back for her services, closing the door as she did so.

The redhead stepped out of the alleyway with heavy thoughts. He could risk the travel and try to force his crew and his way into the country, or he could lay low for awhile until the nations stopped. But who knew how long that would take. From the looks of things he was going have to talk his Quartermaster and Navigator about alternatives and possible plans.

Letting out a sigh of frustration, Axel palmed the top of half of his face, his gloved pinky and thumb trying to massage the sides of his temple to kill off the incoming headache that was coming. He needed a good lay, as much as he like easy pickings, females were to clingy sometimes. That or too demanding. Axel was much too busy trying to ease his headache to see the incoming blond boy running towards him.

{{Its alright. I forgive you.}}

Roxas couldn't help but smile slightly when he saw the town. He knew that he would need to find somebody fast. It would take the guards only a few minutes to realize he was missing. And another few to figure out where he went. So he had maybe ten minutes, if he was lucky.

The blond Prince really wasn't paying attention to where he was going. He was more focused on getting down to the docks where the boats were. So, he accidentally ran into someone.

Stumbling backwards, just about falling over, he looked at who he ran into. It was tall redhead. Not someone he's seen around here before.

"Excuse me.." he muttered, not wanting to be rude. Then he started going around him to continue on his way to the docks.
