1st Track: A Little Less Sixteen Candles

"Is everyone present?"

"Yes, Mansex." Xigbar replied with a smirk.

"Present." Xaldin muttered.

"Here, sir." Vexen answered plainly, a hand supporting his chin.

Lexaeus grunted. ((a/n: What, like he's gonna say anything??))

"Here." Zexion sighed, playing with a strand of his hair.

"Contemporarily in attendance." Saïx stated in a bored tone.

"I'm here, got it-"

"Because we all seem to have short-term memory loss, I assume you find the need to ask us if we have everything memorized." The blue haired Nobody interrupted lazily, earning an ungrateful glare from the pyromaniac.

"Say what?" Demyx sat up immediately in his chair, Zexion blinking in his direction.

"I'd rather be sleeping." Luxord said, playing with his cards on the table surface.

"After this, can I please go water my plants?" Marluxia asked, no one answering this rhetorical question.

"God, we're all here, get on with it!" Larxene demanded, Roxas raising his hand to level with his head. "I'm here." He muttered, lowering his hand.

Xemnas stared at each of his subordinates in dry amusement, raising his slender eyebrows high. "All you had to do was say a simple 'here' and it would've taken lesser time."

"Hey, if fang-face over there didn't interrupt me it would've been quicker!" Axel argued, pointing a menacing finger at the berserker. Saïx just rolled his eyes; since there was no use for a reply to the lame insult he had been given.

"Axel, please try harder when trying to demean one of your colleagues. You undoubtedly need to work on your names. Anyway, does anyone wish to take a guess as to why I asked you all here?" Xemnas asked, seeing a few hands rise. Which was a bit strange, considering the fact that none of them were the one of the younger members. He didn't know if that was a good thing, a bad thing, or a mixture of both. "Yes, Xigbar?"

"You're on birth control?"

"…No, Xigbar. I am not on birth control. Luxord?"

"You're taking us to a poker tournament?" The short-haired blonde suggested hopefully, a tiny smile on his face.

"Why the fuck would he want to take us to a poker tournament?" Larxene asked cynically, glowering eyes narrowed.

Saïx sighed again, leaning back against the elevated throne with folded arms and closed eyes. "Larxene, I know you're on your 'Girly Time', but restrain from using such foul language. There are young ears here." He said evenly, jerking a thumb in Demyx's direction.

Larxene cast a venomous glance in the bluenette's direction. "You're one to talk, asshole!"

"Are you trying to start a fight with me, Larxene?" Saïx asked in mock-surprise, opening his eyes and turning to look at the blonde woman.

"You bet your white ass I am!"

Saïx stared at the Savage Nymph eccentrically, quirking a brow. "Wherever you're taking this, please don't mention how you know my ass is white," At this, a few of the members sniggered and smirked. They didn't dare laugh out loud around Larxene if she was the one being mocked. "Second, I'm terribly sorry but I don't fight transvestites."

There were 'Ooohs', there was laughing, and there was Axel yelling "OOOHH YOU GOT DISSED BIG TIME!". And there was angry twitching, which was Larxene mind you. "What did you call me?"

Saïx shrugged simply as if having been asked the time. He despised having to repeat himself. "A transvestite."

"…What…?" The woman ((a/n??)) asked again, her voice trembling with anger that went in synch with her twitchy eye.

"I said transvestite. T-R-A-N-S-V-E-S-T-I-T-E. Or would you rather I call you a dyke instead?" Saïx asked, leaning forward slightly as if saying 'bring it on'.

"I'LL FUCKING KILL YO-"

"Vexen, tranquilizer." Xemnas ordered plainly, waving an impatient hand in Larxene's direction. Vexen complied, pulling a needle out of nowhere and stabbing it in the Nymph's neck. She bucked under, slipping lower in her chair until she was on the floor.

"…Axel, you're responsible for getting her out of there and into asylum after we're done here."

Said Nobody tilted his head in curiosity, looking at Xemnas. "You got that finished?" The Enigmatic Man nodded, smiling with a satisfied expression. "Yes. Just last week."

Saïx watched the two chat about the newly installed asylum made for Larxene, eyes half-open at the growing boredom. "Is that it? Can we get this over with now?"

Xemnas blinked, nodding with a switch of expressions from satisfied to his signature, stoic look. "Of course. I have called you all for an announcement." He observed his silver bangs absentmindedly, staring them as he held the hairs at length. "Are any of you musically talented?"

The other members quirked brows, tilted heads or grinned. Saïx stared. "Which means…?"

The Enigmatic Man shrugged, setting his amber gaze on the Luna Diviner. "Not much, really. Someone offered me a spot in this new competition that they're going to televise and I figured that you all have nothing better to do but to compete."

"Whoa, are you serious??" Demyx's face brightened, as well as half the other members. The enthusiasm was rare nowadays considering there was a lack of things to do now. It was a nice change to see more than dead expressions on the Nobodies' faces.

Saïx, however, simply sighed and slouched back in his seat.

"So, where and when is all of this?" He asked plainly, putting two fingers to his right temple.

"Radiant Garden. It seems like the best place, since our world is dark and somewhat eerie. Twilight Town is just too bright. Radiant Garden has more people than both worlds put together, added the fact that it actually has times of day. Twilight Town and our world do not," The silver haired one explained, slow enough for the overly excited to hear.

"Early tomorrow we are leaving for a hotel in Radiant Garden, so tonight is a good night to pack your things."

And just like that, everyone had dashed out of the room and into separate portals, Axel slowly limping into one with Larxene on his back. But, however, Saïx and Xemnas did not leave the room. The Luna Diviner looked up from the bland floor below to see his superior smiling at him. "Yes, Xemnas?"

"Are you musically talented, VII?"

Saïx paused in thought, taking his fingers from his head. "I beg your pardon?" He asked, clearly thrown off. What kind of question was that? Did Xemnas expect him to suddenly gain immense enthusiasm and go compete like the others? Sure, he might've sung before, but only under his breath. Nothing more, nothing less.

"I asked if you were musically talented."

"I suppose I am, if you won't take no for an answer." Saïx replied suspiciously, sitting upright.

Xemnas watched Saïx with interest, his smile becoming a bit wider. "Will you participate in the show?"

"Most likely not. I don't see why I should."

"For me?"

Once again, the elfy-eared Nobody looked up, this time in surprise. 'For me?' It was such a sincere question coming from a usually stoic man. It sounded pleading though, but that was probably the tanned one's plan. Was he trying to manipulate the Nobody into doing what he wanted? Saïx sighed again, rolling his eyes and muttering something under his breath.

"…suppose so."

Xemnas's smile grew again, his narrowed eyes observing the Nobody across the large room. "I'm sorry, come again?"

A small pout formed on Saïx's face, his brow furrowing and golden eyes averting the amber ones. He must've looked like a disobedient child.

"I said I suppose so." He muttered, but loud enough for the other to hear.

"Lovely." The Enigmatic Man stood up, Saïx standing after him out of respect. He bowed his head slightly before forming a portal and walking out of the room, leaving the confused berserker in his wake. What was that all about? Was 'lovely' all Xemnas really had to say? Was he going to leave Saïx wondering what his intentions were? Sometimes the Luna Diviner found himself wishing that his superior wasn't so enigmatic. Saïx looked down at his lap and furrowed his brow, looking up at the high ceiling and frowning.

"…Shit."
