"Actually, I could use the help." Riku looked over Dexeon's shoulder at the replica Yeifou. "Mind taking care of that, Nova?"
"You!" Riku held up his Keyblade. "You will not touch her!" Riku's Keyblade and Dexeon's Fireblade clashed. "What's with your lacky?" Riku addressed the replica's presence. "Can't do it alone, Dexeon?" Garxena's eyes opened. Her head felt foggy. Now I know what Xeal felt like after a tranqualizer... She saw Dexeon and Riku with their blades locked. Garxena bolted up, and wished she hadn't. The room swam before her eyes. That was stupid...
"Come if you want." Riku took Garxena up to her room and laid her on her bed. "I won't let them get you again."
Garxena lifter her head to see Xarden looking at her. "For Xeal..." She smiled, and let her head fall back and her eyes close. "She really didn't want to fight us. What happened with her and her brother?" Riku picked up Garxena, and the burn caught his eye. "That stupid thing? Jeeze."
"No!" Garxena jumped back. "I don't want to be with him now! Not until I'm a better person..." She raised her Oblivioblade to protect herself. "Sorry Garxena." Riku sent a Dark Aura and hit Garxena in the back. She fell to the ground.
"No... it's for Xeal..." the tears kept coming. Garxena knew she had to make the first move. She knew Riku more than any of the others. Garxena charged at him. "Whoa!" Riku held up his Keyblade and Garxena's Oblivionblade clashed with it, making sparks. "Garxena stop!"
"What I must do..." Garxena looked around the room at who was there. Nova, Riku, Xarden, and Kairi. They're too much for me to beat on my own. I might need my Falcon Spirit for this fight. "What are you talking about?!" Riku yelled. "Your brother and that other guy are lying :censor2:! Don't listen to them! Whatever they tell you isn't true!"
Garxena just stood there, not wanting to move. Not wanting to fight. She glanced at Kairi. I can't do this... not to my friends... Tears fell as she took a fighting stance. "I'm sorry." she whispered.
Riku woke with a start. "What the -" he saw Dexeon and Garxena standing side by side. Dexeon with his hand on her shoulder. "Of course I will." He called his Keyblade. And this time, he dies. Garxena saw Riku wake up. "No... not him... Dexeon, not him." Tears formed in her eyes. If I had a heart, it'd be ripping in two...
The Oblivionblade appeared in Garxena's unwilling hand. "I can't... please Dexeon... don't make me hurt them."
Garxena saw Riku (asleep in a chair), Nova tending to Kairi, and she thought she heard some noises from Xarden's room. "Please, brother..." she begged. "I can't..."
"Nothing. Not everything in life is a trade, brother." Garxena knew Dexeon was not the kindest person in the world, but it seemed that he always needed something in return for his services. So what's with him and Telren? What did Dexeon ask for? Or what did Telren offer?
"Kyo, Aer--Kairi, Xarden, Nova, Yeifou, Kade." Garxena thought for a moment. "That's about it..." She unfolded her arms. He's giving me what I want, but at what price?
OOC: we were for a little while. but i guess it didn't work. lol oh well :)
Garxena hung her head and took a deep breath. "I'll do anything."
OOC: so much! it's really good. take a few minutes and read it. BIC: "Didn't I just say I wasn't following your orders?" Garxena reminded her brother.
"I want Xeal back to normal."Garxena jerked her head away from him. "But you can't do anything to help him." She looked at Dexeon. Stupid brother, you should've gone with the Light. OOC: ooh, Telren is the best villan ever! Great job! <3 ;)
Garxena sighed. This is goinig to be a pain in the butt. I know my brother and I know Telren well enough. But this burn is a drawback. It puts a huge dent in my plan. But it's all for Xeal. At least, even if I'm stuck with these :censor2:, I'll know Xeal's better and happy with the others... She massaged her burn. "Don't expect me to be an obediant little puppy, Telren. I may be stuck here, but I'm not yours to control." She stated rebeliously.
Garxena felt rage build up in her. "He is NOT WEAK!!" She fumed. Her hands made fists. But her burn seared and she immdiatly calmed down. "Be careful." she heard Dexeon warn. OOC: time to go. see you tomorrow. ;)
Riku nodded to Kairi and then rested his head against the wall. "You've got a point. I bet Sora's getting plenty of rest." He closed his eyes. Garxena tried not to cry. She walked back over to Dexeon. "We had a deal." She snapped.
