Axel silently rose from the ground, it was raining now. Slowly tiny water droplets began to fall from the sky, drowning the city. Axel reached behind him and pulled his hood over his head. He didn't like getting wet.
Axel walked on and stopped at a bar. Someone was singing. Axel opened the door, a little chime was heard but no one paid any attention to it. Axel didn't care, he walked over to a small table near the karaoke singer and sat down.
"You’re too important for anyone, You play the role of all you long to be, But I, I know who you really are, You’re the one who cries when you’re alone,
But where will you go, With no one left to save you from yourself, You can’t escape, You can’t escape,
You think that I can’t see right through your eyes, Scared to death to face reality, No one seems to hear your hidden cries, You’re left to face yourself alone,
I realize you’re afraid, But you can’t abandon everyone, You can’t escape, You don’t want to escape,
I’m so sick of speaking words that no one understands, Is it clear enough that you can’t live your whole life all alone, I can hear you in a whisper, But you can’t even hear me screaming,
I realize you’re afraid, But you can’t reject the whole world, You can’t escape, You won’t escape, You can’t escape, You don’t want to escape," she ended as she put the microphone in its place and walked off the stage.
Axel was astonished. This song, it was as if it was about his entire life. Everything he had felt, everything he had did, everything. Axel didn't know how this woman came up with a song like this, he had to ask her, he had to find out who she was, he had to know.
Axel rose to the table and began to walk towards the table where the woman was sitting.
[OOC: The song she was singing is called "Where will you go?" by Evanescence. I, myself was shocked at how much it described Axel's feelings. I did not plan to have this song in, and I am truly bewildered at its relevance to Axel.]
