awk reading 2 input files but not getting expected value

I'm reading 2 input files but not getting expected value.
I should get an alpha value on file_1_data[*] but not getting any.

Please help.

awk '
FILENAME==ARGV[1] { file_1_data[$1]=$0; print "----- 1 Line " NR " -----" $1; next }
FILENAME==ARGV[2] { file_2_data[$1]=$0; print "----- 2 Line " NR " -----" $1; next }
END {
# do actual data processing here
print "----- Line " NR " -----"
print "----- file_1_data[1] " file_1_data[1]
