[Axel has since given up straining against his bonds and has instead taken to frantically bashing at the chain with various other chunks of the crystal cluster cluttering the floor.]
"Come on, come onnnn."
[Wasn't it said that the one thing that could chip crystal was itself? Or was that only diamond? Either way there is a countdown happening in a language Axel can't discern and he needs to get out and get out NOW. He drapes the chain around a particularly large shard and picks up another piece to begin to bash anew when--]
"Roxas?"
[It's faint but.. yes.. yes he heard it. Axel practically sensed the former Nobody before he heard it.]
"ROXAS!!"
[The stupid machine in here is loud though; the round chamber deep and closed off enough to have a bit of an echo. Even if he yells, there's no telling how far the sound will travel. Roxas might run right by if Axel can't tell him he is there. He has to find a way to tell him!
With renewed purpose, Axel starts chucking crystal at the iron door again.]
"IN! HERE! I'M!!"
[The iron door has no slats from the outside, built practically into the wall, not unlike a kiln or hatch into a submarine. Little sound escapes, but the rhythmic vibrations reverberate through..]
