Organization XIII - It's a beautiful day!

OoC: Anyone mind giving me a summary? This is my last day of vacation and I'll be heading back home tomorrow so I'll probably pay more attention to this seeing that I barely do anything else lately xD;

 

Saix let out a small whoosh of air, happy that the Superior had turned his attention from him. He swiped his forhead a little. Phew... Dodged a bullet on that one... he thought. THAT wouldhave been an embarrasing confession... He he quickly recalled Axel's reaction to his dream, and gave a slight shudder.

He blinked, sensing a change in the atmosphere, and the Superior. He crinked his brow a little, a questionable look on his face. "Superior.....?" he asked, slowly.

(( YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!

*glomps Celeste* I'll tell ya later on MSN, kay? *giggles*

.......................

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!!!!!

*glomps Jack, too*

Already sent ya a PM, buddeh! =D

*runs around, giggling like the idiot she really is* ))

 

( Wow. Guess I was missed a lot huh? o3o And I have one question. Are Luxord and Xigbar still kids? Cause I don't recal them ever going back XDDD )

 

((OOC: If anyone is interested, I have a new AMV on YouTube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MnsaFlV1oLk Xemnas vs. Marluxia: Knife Fight!))

"Saix, you've got to learn to open up," said Xemnas, in what he thought was a perfect interpretation of Saix's tone of voice from only paying half attention. "At least to me. Think of it this way...I am the Superior, am I not? Well, what kind of Superior would I be if I didn't fix any and all problems my so-called underlings may have? And once we've agreed to that, then answer me this: How can I fix the problem if I don't know what it is?"

 

Vexen sighed, tired after her hard work. She looked before her to the paper she had just finished drawing on. Staring back at her was the old Vexen, still a woman but with blonde hair. To this drawn Vexen's right stood Roxas, and to its left, Marluxia. She missed both of these nobodies, but most of all Marluxia, whom she had not seen in a very long time.

The amateur drawing seemed like a glimpse of a life long lost. Vexen found herself so changed as of late, unable to talk to Roxas as freely as she always had been, and not even aware of the pink haired flower's whereabouts.

Vexen stood, ran her hand through her long white hair, realizing how long it had grown. She folded up the drawing and placed it in her pocket. She wanted to hold on to that life she felt was slipping away from her. She put up all the materials she had used and walked out of the pristine white room. She knew she could come back and find it again whenever she felt the need to be at peace.

The nobody walked on in silence.

******************************

The front doors opened to Castle Oblivion, their size befitting the grandeur (sp?) of a castle. A figure stepped in. He felt disgust invade every part of his body as the aura of the place engulfed him. There was something very close to love and friendship in this castle, and it was making him sick.

He knew nobody would sense him walk in; he made sure of it by shielding his intense powerful aura. He wanted to find the inhabitants of this place by surprise. He wanted to torture these peopel. He wanted to kill them...

******************************

OoC: Happy Birthday Jack!!!

 

(( Holy snot bubbles, Batman! XD That video almost made me spray ramen noodles out of my nose, Jack! XDDD Especially the end. XDDDDDDD

Celeste: Yup. They still kiddies. Incredibly cute ones, at that. =3 ))

Saix huched over. Well, damn. Now I've gon and jinxed it... he thought, bitterly. "There isn't really a problem, Superior, just a weird dream probly (SP?) from me drinking too much orange soda. It's also a... rather awkward dream, too, so I'd rather not..."

And there I go again... Clamping down like some clam being bullied by one of those stupid Atlanticans... He sighed. "Buuuuuut, if you really want to know, I suppose I could..."

 

Xemnas sighed. "I really do want to know, Saix. I really, really do. But if you're truly not comfortable, I won't force you."

All of a sudden, his whole body jerked with pain, and he fell to the floor.

 

The enigmatic figure walked in complete silence. His footsteps made no noise as they hit the hard floor. He could feel the changes that his presence brought to this castle; it was dying all over him. This would be easy, fun at best. The inhabitants of Castle Oblivion would probably already be feeling the effects of his presence.

"They do not deserve existance..." His voice was a whisper laced with venom and ice.

He continued his silent intrusion of this castle that seemed so unworthy to him, so inferior and disgusting. He could sense the laughter that had passed through it in the past, the happiness and love... and he wanted to gag.

"But not to worry. The Darkness shall creep back into these infested walls and with it I shall clense this place." A twisted smile broke across his face. His orange eyes gleamed.

First, I shall find THAT one... and slowly destroy all trace off light within her.

He turned the corner shrouded in darkness.

************************************

Vexen continued her walk in silence. She wanted to find someone to talk to... or maybe go to that garden she had visited before. She needed warmth.

As her hair brushed against her cheek, a ripple of coldness ran throughout her veins. She stopped. She had felt something awfully familiar to that sensation before... when she had feinted not so long ago. She was scared.

 

Luxord was looking through his deck of cards, walking down the halls and not really paying attention to much that he was doing. He didn't know where Xigbar was, so he couldn't really go bug him about stuff. He had a feeling that someone else was around, but he was not sure. Probaly was Xigbar playing a prank on him again. "Hey, anyone there? Xiggy, is that you?" the gambler said in a squeaky, high voice.

 

The dark man felt the presence of a castle inhabitant and smiled. There would be a little road bump in his way before he reached his intended victim.

"No matter... this will be dreadfully easy." His eyes gleamed; this would be his first time in too long that he would be able to hurt someone. He looked forward to this.

"Hey, anyone there? Xiggy, is that you?"

The man heard this squeaky voice resonate through the halls. He could feel the weakness of the nobody who spoke. Without warning, he let out darkness all over the hall, engulfing the nobody before him.

 

Luxord looked around, noticing the dark aura consuming the hallway. The darkness was getting close. As he tried to make an escape, the darkness trapped his only escape. He couldn't focus on making a portal at the right time, and it wasn't long before he was consumed fully in the darkness.

 

OoC: ShadowofRiku, I think you need to PM Mari with a request for the character before RPing. She's been a little difficult to reach lately, but the decision is hers so you have to ok it with her before starting.

For everyone else, sorry but this is going to be a long post!
Jack, where is your character right now? I seem to have missed this info...

----------------------------------------------

The shrill laugh echoed through the tangible darkness. He was having fun.

With a flick of his wrist, he englufed the nobody before him, squeezing his ribs; he wanted the young boy to feel pain. He wanted every being in the castle to feel pain, so much pain that their existence would seem unbearable!

"You are getting in my way," his voice was icy," so I shall keep you in the darkness for a while." The shadow chuckled. "I will seek that girl now... but if I am confronted by any of your friends I will not hesitate to take them into the darkness,too."

Luxord was now in the shadow's alternate dimension, a world of darkness. "He is too weak to break free of my grasp. They are all too weak!" He shot darkness at Luxord, making the boy suffer.

He continued to walk the halls. He highly doubted that a weakling such as Luxord could break free from his world. Although he would not admit this to himself, he did feel perplexed about one of the members of the castle... Xemnas. That one did pose quite a problem. And so did Vexen.

Ansem brushed away these doubts. "No worries. They will be easy to overtake."

He could feel Xemnas close by. It would not surprise him of the nobody had noticed the presence of his being's heatless. He smiled, hoping dearly to have fun torturing Xemnas. But now, his attentions were caught by another's presence... Vexen's. She was close.

------------------------------------------------

Vexen was running down the halls now. She needed to find Xemnas! She could feel that icy presence and she was scared. For some reason, she knew Xemnas could help, even if she was still a little apprehensive about her leader.

She would settle for finding Roxas or Marluxia even, just as long as she was not alone.

 

((Okay, this si so weird. Foxxie posted something, and then I did, and now both those posts are missing. Plus, a PM I got from Foxxie a week ago was listed as new and unreplied to.

Basically, Xemnas and Saix are in Xemnas' tower room. After I fell on the floor, Saix, went over to him and Xemnas siad, weakly, that Saix should take a battalion of Berserkers to the castle doors and defend the others. I don't know what happened to any of this.))

 

OoC: I get subscriptions to this thread and just received one with your post... I'll post it here for reference....

Posted by Foxxie:
(( Bout freakin' time, ya dumb KHV! D< *throttles it for trashing all of her
stuff as soon as she tries to freakin' post* ))

Saix shrugged, uncomfortably. "Well, I'm telling you, it's not much.... But if
you MUST know--" He was cut off suddenly by Xemnas' collapse to the floor. He
gasped, immediantly concerned. "Xemnas, WHAT'S WRONG?!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Xigbar wandered around the castle, rubbing his eyes. "Still kinda hungry..." he
muttered to the darkness. "Can't sleep on an empty stomach... Just wish that we
had more chicken..."
---------------

Posted by Jack:
Xemnas clutched his chest in pain and spasmed for a moment or two, and then he
lay still, breathing shallow.

He reached up and grabbed Saix by his collar, and pulled him down to his face.
"It...is...here..." he gasped. "Saix...protect....the others...send your
Berserkers...to the gates..."

He looked madly into Saix's eyes. "My...Heartless....stop him...." he said
before passing out.
---------------------------------------------

Ansem walked the halls in silence, effortlessly turning corners, approaching his victims. He heard a commotion at the fork in the hall before him. Turning to his right he saw several monsters heading towards him, but towards his left he saw a small child.

Xigbar had been walking the halls, and now Ansem would take him into the darkness too, along with Luxord. As for the monsters that were undoubtedly sent to stop him... well, they would prove more difficult to deal with.

Sending several bolts of darkness towards these monsters, Ansem moved swiftly to his left and made to smash Xigbar with another concentrated bolt of darkness; he moved so quickly, he almost seemed to disappear before reappearing right in front of the tiny nobody.

---------------------------------------------

Vexen found her way into the tower where Saix and Xemnas where. She had faintly sensed their presence here.

Looking about the room, she spotted Saix bending over something... or rather, someone. XEMNAS! She ran towards her leader and kneeled over him, instinctively checking his pulse. He's alive! Relief swept through her.

Turning to the other nobody, she asked, "What happened?"

 

Xemnas' eyes snapped back open suddenly.

"Why are you still here?" he said to Saix in a hourse whisper. "And why are you in my room?" he said to Vexen. "No time...I'll be all right...stop the creature! Protect the others! I'll join you when my strength returns. Go!"

The horrible feeling that this creature's presence gave him was subsiding somehow. He couldn't understand it. He felt his strength returning, though he was still in no shape to fend off the despicable demon that had trespassed in his home.

He started to feel a weird, warm sensation in his chest. He couldn't quite place it, but it was almost like...

Oh NO!

He looked out the window. Sure enough, just outside the castle gates, was a little blonde head perched atop a white sundress. She was just sitting on a wall outside the gates, admiring the castle and sketching it.

I've got to get her out of here, he thought, and went to move and fell over again. Still too weak, but I'm sure it's her presence that's giving me a fighting chance. Still...I don't want her mixed up in all this...

Xemnas made his way to the bed, tested his strength by attemtping to summon a legion of Sorcerer Nobodies. Only five showed up. "Well," he said, "That's better than nothing. Find a Heartless who resembles me and destroy it." The Sorcerers bowed and exited the room, but not before crashing into each other and everything else.

We're doomed...

 

Vexen was glad that her superior had awakened, though she was not sure what help he would ultimately provide. He seemed out of sorts; following his gaze, Vexen saw him look out the window towards a blonde spot on a wall.

What is that?... or who?

But she had no time to think over this mystery. Following Xemnas's orders, the now white-haired woman ran out of the room, struggling past the creatures Xemnas had summoned.

She was going to find the intruder and fight him. She would ignore, of course, the ever persistent feeling of fear and horror that gripped her entire being.

--------------------------------------------
OoC: Short post, sorry.... I'm a little busy.

 

OoC: Sorry for not posting so much you guys DX I've been caught up in a bunch of crap. ;; And I think Foxxie's lack of posts was probably because she was working her butt off for a birthday present for me. .3. But I may be wrong.

 

(( Yeah - between her birthday present, school, and marching band practice, I have been about losing my MIND! DX I'm only gonna be on for a short while - homework to be done and all that good stuff.

*dies* ))

Xigbar gasped at the figure walking through the halls. "Wh-Who are you?!" he demanded shrilly. "Why are yo--AAAAGHHHH!"

He ducked as he saw a bolt of darkness fly from his hand, and destroy a number of Saix's Berserkers--Wait... WHAT?!

Xigbar looked again to the mysterious man, but he almost seemed to disappear. The boy stumbled back a little, then broke into run.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Things were happening too fast for the blue-headed Berserker. He saw the weakness in his Superior's eyes - the fear in his eyes... And just couldn't understand...

Suddenly, he was grabbed by the collar, and pulled down so that he could look into Xemnas' deep eyes... "It...is...here... Saix...protect....the others...send your Berserkers...to the gates..."

Saix nodded, and began to send some, but Xemnas wasn't finished. "My...Heartless....stop him...."

Saix gasped. "HEARTLESS?!"

Xemnas collapsed before his inquiry (SP?) could be answered. Saix shook the man a little. "S-Superior?!"

BOOM!

The door burst open, and in rushed lady Vexen. He instinctively backed out of the way as she checked Xemnas' pulse, then turned to him. "What happened?"

Saix blinked, completely confused. "Uuuuhhhhh.... W-Well, I was..." He trailed off, staring at the woman, awkwardly.

"Did you do something different with your hair?"

Aaaaaand, suddenly, Xemnas was awake again! "Why are you still here?" he asked Saix. He sounded like he had been chugging gallons of sand over the last few seconds.
"W-Wait, Xemnas, I was just--"
"And why are you in my room?" he said, turning to Vexen. Before anyone had time to answer, he added, "No time...I'll be all right...stop the creature! Protect the others! I'll join you when my strength returns. Go!"

Saix began to protest, but shook his head, not really wanting to know. He was tired of asking questions - all they did was get him even more confused. No - no more trying to know. No more trying to understand. It was time for action.

He nodded quickly, respectively to Xemnas, then strode out of the room. As he walked he summoned his claymore, and began soaking in the moon's power.

Time to get down to business...

(( I luv you guys - stay beautiful. XD ))

 

"HahahahahaHAHA!" Ansem's inhuman laugh filled the castle. He struck at the tiny figure running away from him, enclosing him in darkness. "You understand so little. Go," he smirked, flinging Saix's creatures away as if they were flimsy pieces of paper, "and join that little friend of yours in the darkness."

Xigbar was nowhere to be seen. Ansem turned to the other berserkers and with a flash of his eyes he destroyed them all.

"I will hold those nobodies in the darkness until I find the rest of them..." His body was engulfed in darkness. "Then, I will kill them all... slowly."

He doubted that Xigbar and Luxord would break free of the realm he now held them prisoner in... how could they? They were weak.

Suddenly, Ansem turned to face a young white haired woman...

--------------------------------------------------

Vexen had been running down the halls of Castle Oblivion, following her senses to find the intruder who was powerful enough to scare even Xemnas. She was surrounded by ice, her breath visible in the coldness around her.

She was scared, but beyond that she was angry. Whoever this intruder was, she knew he had been the one who had hurt her before... when Marluxia had turned evil. And she was not going to let him get away with the pain he had caused her. No doubt her new hair color was probably a result of her previous encounter with this mysterious man.

Turning a corner she heard Xigbar's tiny voice... followed by a scream and shrill laighter. Without even thinking, Vexen zoomed towards the noise to witness the intruder do away with Saix's destroyers without any difficulty. Fear gripped her.

"Vexen..." The figure spoke to her in a voice that seemed to stab her continuously.

She did not want to hear him speak. She summoned ice shards and sent them flying at the man...

 

Xigbar squealed in terror for a split second as the never-ending darkness began to fold around him. Oh, he remembered this feeling - it was burned into his memory forever more.

"Xehanort! We have to stop! It's not safe! They're getting out of control!"
"I can handle it! Ienzo! Hurry and bolt that lock for me!"
"But, I can't--!"
"DAMNIT! They're escaping!"
"N-No! Get back! We are your creators! Listen to us!"
"It's not working, Dilan!"
"Ohmy--GET OFF!"
"BRAIG!!!"
"I can't fight it--"
"BRAIG!!!!!"

He screamed, fighting the darkness as much as he could, but it was of use. Before long, he felt that old familiar feeling of loneliness and despare.

He sank to his knees, looking all around. Tentively, he reached out his hand. "Luxord...?"

Nothing.

"Xemnas...?!"

Still nothing... Nothing but darkness...

"................ ANYBODY?!"

The only thing the boy could hear in the dark, empty void was the sound of his own sobbing.

(( Grawr - going to bed early should be a crime... Why can't school start at 10 am?! ;~; ))
