Chapter 19: I'm not Axle

"Axle?" Rosé asked, hopeful she found the man who held her heart. Cobalt looked at her with a blank face and shook his head. He took off his mask and Rosé looked at his face. She saw his eyes. They had nothing but looks of sorrow. She could also see regret in them but she had no idea why.

"I'm not Axle Ryder. He died." Cobalt told her. "Then who are you?" Rosé asked Cobalt. "My name is Alex Rory." Cobalt introduced himself to Rosé.

Realising what she heard, Rosé collapsed onto the white floor and refused to release the emotions she felt. She knew Axle's body was still alive, there was still brainwave activity coming from it. She didn't want to believe it. She refused to believe it.

"You're lying." Rosé said as she did her best to hold her tears back. "I recently came here to save Axle and, and his body was fine. There was still brainwave activity coming from it. Where's Axle?"
Rosé struggled to keep her composure but she refused to show any form of weakness.

"As hard as it is for you to believe me, it's true. Axle Ryder is dead and there's no possible way of bringing him back Carly." Cobalt told Rosé.

"In any case, you shouldn't have come to CyberSpace." Cobalt said as he looked at the new user. "Why?" Rosé asked. "Axle figured out that Black Cyber was some mad scientist called Bernstein and he wanted Axle to lure you here to CyberSpace. Axle hoped you'd never enter this program because he thought you'd be safer that way."

"Why would he do that?" Rosé felt betrayed and hurt yet at the same time relieved he figured out who Black Cyber was. "Because even though you didn't feel the same way about him, he truly loved you... until the bitter end."

"That's a lie... even though I was hoping he didn't get over me, I just wished I could have talked to him and made him mine."

"Don't worry, I'm sure he's still thinking about you in the after life." Cobalt said as he hugged her as tightly as he could.

"So Bernstein really is Black Cyber." Carly said. "Ye-" Cobalt-X wanted to complete that answer but was cut off by a kiss by Rosé Shadow.

"Sorry, I know you're dating my old bestie, but you're the worst liar in the world Axle. The last thing you'd ever do was reveal important information like Bernstein to some random CyberSpace user." Rosé said with a smile. She saw the look of shock on his face before she let out a small giggle.

"I might have lost most of my human body but I didn't lose my common sense and my ability to tell when you're lying you idiot." She smiled.

"So did you really mean that, what you said about loving me?" Rosé asked but Cobalt still didn't reply as he was still in shock.

"That wasn't a full lie though was it? The part of Axle Ryder dying that is..." She asked getting serious this time. "You've lost some of the parts of you that made you Axle Ryder huh?"

"Look, as Axle or Cobalt, I'm just glad I found you. I've missed you so much and I have a way to get you out of here. After that we can find a way to track down Bernstein okay." Rosé said before leaving the room.

Cobalt was left alone in that room as he stared at the ceiling whispering quietly, "Carly... why'd you come here to CyberSpace? You idiot... You're in grave danger now."
