Organization XIII's Rivals

Toxcst had forgotten that Larpex had explained to him Abexecca's vision in private. "But I was there too Abexecca, I swear! And if Larpex were here, she'd back me up on this! And besides, Reixa didn't think you were annoying, I-...nevermind." He then looked over his shoulder to see Xandlei in tears, "Hey there squirt, there's no need to cry. Everything's all right." Toxcst then stared straight forward at nothing, thinking to himself, "Geez, I'm becoming a wuss...what the hell is wrong with me?"

 

Abexecca noticed that Xandlei had started to cry and she walked over to him, embracing him. "Hey... it's alright..." she said and looked up at Toxcst. "Apparentlly it wasn't on purpose... you dont need to cry..." she picked him up and placed him on her shoulders.

Xandlei wiped away his tears and looked at Toxcst. "So... Reixa didn't do it on purpose...?" he asked and smiled, feeling a little better.

 

"Nah, of course not. Reixa would never do that," said Toxcst as he then turned to his side. "Although the question still remains, what made her do it?" He then turned back to the two siblings, "Mabye we should head inside, no need for us to stay outside in the cold."

 

Abexecca nodded in agreement and headed inside. She swung Xandlei off of her shoulders so that he didn't hit his head on the doorframe.

Xandlei thought for a moment and looked at his hand. He let a light green aura engulf it. Could it have been... aura that made her do it? he asked himself.

 

Toxcst was about to enter behind the two when he stopped at the doorway and turned around. Looking over his shoulder he said back, "I'll be there in a second, I have to find someone." Toxcst then disappeared in search of Larpex. "What kind of guy am I to almost forget about her?"

 

Xandlei knew who he was going to find but didn't say anything. He turned the aura on his hand to blue.

Abexecca nodded at Toxcst and looked at Xandlei. "Where did you learn that...?" she asked.

"From Reixa..." he said.

 

OOC: Oh my God, I've been laughing so hard! SHEEEEEE LIIIIIVESSSSS!!!!
And Twilight, could you find your post with Axel's questions for me please? :o
And great, Reixa was this close -><- to being labeled as "Don't get too close or she'll kill ya!" :sweatdrop:

Larpex meant to follow, but she was still a little stiff. Was it the right decision? They didn't have to poison him...

She began running after Toxcst eagerly hopin he hadn't injected the poison yet. But in mid-run, she saw him coming her way. Larpex went into his arms, embracing him for a few seconds before letting go. "What happened?"

 

Xandlei made the aura disappear and decided to run after Toxcst. He grabbed Abexecca's hand. "Come on! There's someone I want you to meet..." he said and smiled.

"O-Okay..." Abexecca said, a little surprised at his sudden running. She ran with him.

Xandlei ran up to Larpex. "Hey!" he said with a grin on his face.

Abexecca stood behind him. "Larpex...?" she asked, smiling. "Hey!"

OOC- ROFL I have been laughing really hard! lol... yesh... SHE LIVES!! ROFLMAO

 

OOC: Sure thing, sure thing.

 

OOC: Thanks :D But look here, by following his 'feelings', Axel ended up dead xDD. Heehee...

Larpex looked over Toxcst's shoulder to see Xandlei and... and..."Abexecca?!" She smiled at Toxcst before moving around him and hugging Abexecca. "Oh, we all missed you so much! We''ll have to tell Xadyn, Xin, Max, Cepxis, and Re--" Larpex bit her lip, pulling away slowly. "Sorry..."

Reixa's eyes became teary as Axel put her own scheme out in the open. She guessed that's how she was, too afraid to say what she was supposed to. But what he said next made her 'feel' better. "Thanks..." The flick to the forehead woke her up, making her smile through the pain.

She thought hard about his questions, searching for their true answers. "I-- love you... Axel, and I've always wanted you to love me. And... I like you for your smoothness. You always know what to say to give me chills. And you humor, you've made me laugh when I didn't feel like laughing. Your wit, your looks, your assertiveness, your intuition... I like everything about you. As for what I'm hiding..." Reixa took in a shaky breath, still completely oblivious to the fact that the rock was slowly crumbling beneath them. "The moment you were gone, it tore me apart. I feel like I've been slowly shutting down, like I don't even know myself anymore. My insanity found it's peak... there have been dreams, and even times when I have no control whatsoever over my actions. I've even killed someone... a friend..." Sitting down all the way, Reixa curled up an rested her chin on her knees.

"Larxene and I fought over you once," Rei said, forcing a small laugh. "I left her there with half of her body paralyzed andher chi disabled." For the first time since she spoke, Reixa looked up at Axel.

 

OOC: Lol xP. Still, even if he ended up dead, he still fought for them, that's just the same as if they were real.

Axel was startled some tears in her eyes, as he didn't expect his words to hit so hard. Most of the information, like the one with the Struggle tournament, he didn't even know, but after the head ache, he seemed to remember what his true self saw, and experienced, almost like it was done on purpose fo rhis sight. He didn't expect her also to be in pain over this, but the shock really came when she outwardly admitted her love for him.

When she began telling him why she liked him, usually, he basked in the compliments and praises, hsi ego rising, but this time, he didn't really care. Even her trauma after his death panged him when heard from her mouth, listening as she went as far as losing her control. That's why Axel was thrown off when she suddenly said that she and Larxene fought over him...and honestly, while she won the fight, Larxene won that battle as Axel loved the blonde senseless, and despite not being real, he did feel guilty that he's making a person go through all this for him, only to end up with nothing of what she wanted. Seeing her on the ground and their proximity, he moved slightly forward, as so did his legs, and encircled his arms around her body, giving her a meaningful hug as he dug his face into her shoulder blade, not knowing that his actions were the final straw in the edge that was keeping him from falling. If she had admitted everything, so will he. "I also have things to say...Reixa, this isn't what you think, this is a-"

However, he didn't get to finish as he suddenly felt his legs stretch as a loud crack resided in the air, and his breath caught in his throat when he was driven away downward from the embrace, and knowing by instinct, let her go as he began to fall down, his stomach going up his throat at the feeling. As a gasp escaped his lips, the shock to prevent him from going to the pits below as survival of the fittest, made him go for a grab...somewhere or to something...and as his eyes saw brown earth as he dropped, his hand managed to clasp unto something rough and thick, its surface prickly, that made him bounce up and down a little as it supported him, making him quickly guess that it was a root he was hanging unto.

 

OOC: That gave me weird chills o.O
Heehee, 'Dr. Phil-- To The Exreme' Imagine how everyone will react when they read this tomorrow xD.

His arms put warmth back into her body as they came around her. But the loud crack made her jump, turning her head around to see Axel as he fell. "A--Axel!" Reixa layed on her stomach, leaning over the edge as he dangled over the valley. The entire scene had reversed itself hauntingly, 'fear' creeping through Reixa as she extended her arm for him. Axel, grab on!"

If she would have had a heart, it would have been beating a thousand times a minute. Reixa was already shaking in terror as the image of Axel falling kept replaying in her mind. He just needed to take her hand...

 

OOC: It did? O_O In what way? And yeah, but the end isn't that near, yet, kind of.

He would've been gripped by fright, he was practically dangling with one hand on a root to keep him from facing what would be his second death. But he wasn't scared, anxious, or even...nervous that he was going to die. And even when he heard it snap a little, while it did send a shiver his body wasn't in fear. Listening to Reixa's shout, he simply looked under the forest and valley under him, his eyes taking in the very bottomless descend, the fats wind roaring in his ears as it blowed his fire red hair. After a while, he shifted his green eyes up, to gaze at Reixa's dreaded and horrored ones...and he smiled sadly. He thought to himself that it was better that way, and hehad something set in his mind that would make her realize the truth. So, when she held out her hand for him, he shook his head, his expression blank. "No...it's too late for me, Reixa....understand that I'm already dead, you can't help me at the moment..." He heard the root snap even more, and he felt himself lower, only for him to shake his head bitterly. "Swear to me that you won't get scared of what I'm about to do, alright?"

He waited awhile to eye her on what he said, to her reaction, and taking in a deep breath, flickering his eyes, he let his hold go, the same feeling that he had felt just moments ago overtaking his body, but this time ten fold as he cascaded earthward in a spiraling fall, sending him into a nerve wracking sensation, his eyes watching as everything rushed past him in different colors, Reixa's face blurred from now high up....and he closed them.

 

OOC: It was like I was going to smile out of fangirlness, but I kinda chocked instead. Just kinda weird. But at that one, I cried! But it was only one tear, and then I felt normal again. Either I'm really tired (don't feel like it tho) or something. But I went and got some Lifewater (31 g sugar) and feel even more awake xDD. We'll finish this out before we go.

Reixa gasped when Axel shook his head and released his grip on the root, tumbling to the unforgiving ground below. She watched as he grew smaller, and it took all of her willpower to not become frightened. All she 'felt' was the same grief as before, when she had watched him slip away the first time. The same helplessness, a reminder of how there was no way to help even from the beginning. Sitting up unsteadily, Reixa backed away from the edge, quite a few feet. Her once teary eyes were full again as she sat on her knees, her face in her gloves. The wet, salty water came out rapidly, soaking the material.

 

OOC: That means I did a good job on the way I wrote how he fell? (I was kind of worried about that xP). Though I thought you knew what was coming ^^;. I know exactly how this is going to end.

Axel eyed her from behind calmly, considering how he had to fall, after all, just because you got back on ground, didn't mean you truly couldn't feel the ride and how it felt to really go down...that was nauseating. There...on the earth where his body was suppose to splatter, was nothing but reality...the reality Reixa wasn't in now. But he knew this was a good way to begin the honest truth of all this make-believe, though it pained him to see her crying at the moment. But he finally understood her...everything she had said about her love to him.

You heard that, Axel?...I know you did...

Stepping forward, a bit anxious to how this whole thing was going to turn out, he walked to her quietly, peering down at her shaking back as she sobbed, and bending his knees to go to her eye level, he grabbed her gloved hands with his as he softly lower them, hearing her sniffing before he caught the sight of her eyes. She would probably be shocked and lost, but letting go quickly, he then pressed his own two hands against her cheeks as he wiped away her tears with his thumbs. Taking them away after a while, seeing her even more horrified expression, he breathed, his tone a bit constrict, "What's with the water works?...I'm here. I know you're probably confused, but let me explain now, okay?..."

 

OOC: Yeah, I knew it was coming, but as I read it, it was like what I should write was hppening to me, nd when I finished reading I was fine. And I was wondering if the real Axel had heard any of that :D

Reixa felt the warm touch as her body tensed. Her eyes widened as Axel kneeled before her, wiping her wet face. She nodded, taking his hands in hers on her cheeks. Rei's eyes closed for a few moments as she breathed slowly, calming down. The shaking subsided, an her eyes opened again. And yet he was still there, his green eyes staring back at hers. Rei almost smiled, but an expession between bewilderment and relief appeared vaguely on her face.

"O...kay."

 

Axel breathed a sigh of relief that she didn't lash out at him like he kind of expected, and so this made it easier to explain. Looking around briefly, he glanced at this dimension they were in, before placing his eyes back at hers, beginning gravely. "This...this place is nothing, but your creation. You're dreaming, Reixa, this isn't real. And...even if I did tell you so...I'm not real. I'm the figment of the Axel in your mind, the one you remember and kissed, the one you wanted for yourself and to be with you. This is made of a desire for Him, and what is haunting you at the moment considering his death. That time when I snapped at you for playing with my head...that wasn't really me, and when I was later in pain and suffering. His presence is in me, or is there. I know I should have told you sooner, yet there's also a reason as to why you had to go through this, or why your conscious needed to."

Gazing at the floor now, a little in shame, he took his hands of her hold, and straightened up to stand, making sure to stay clear of her face. He had noticed at the corner of his vision that she was close to the edge, however, he didn't do anything. It won't happen anymore. Swallowing tightly, he said regretfully. "I'm sorry..."

 

Abexecca hugged her back, smiling. "I missed you guys, too..." she looked at Larpex as she almost said Reixa's name. "Nah... it's alright... I understand what happened..." she said and smiled.

 

........and no one misses Xangel....Larpex met her.........just very.....very.....VERY.....briefly.......

 

awwww we miss you *hugs*

@ Reixa- errrr okay...
