Saix's POV
"Nine." He did not appear.
"Nine!" Still nothing. Fine.
"Demyx!" This time I merited a response.
"Y-yes, Saix?" he stammered. He avoided my gaze as I noticed most did.
"I have acquired information that you have been plotting, to much of our dismay." I said smoothly.
"Huh?" he blinked.
"You're going to prank us." I repeated my statement so even he could comprehend. Sometimes I forgot he was a great deal slower than I.
"Oh," he tried to look innocent, but I was not so easily fooled.
"I suggest you do not put such plans into action. You may not live to regret it." His eyes widened. I allowed a smirk of satisfaction to grace my lips.
"All is taken care of, Superior."
"Good."
I now found myself in Superior Xemnas's private office. We were discussing the best course of action, should Demyx go through with his ill-conceived ideas. He had warned me not to harm the Melodious Nocturne. I had agreed, against my better judgment. I still found myself asking what reason he could have for shielding the brat.
Xemnas began to speak again and I pushed such thoughts out of my mind. I did not particularly want to hear his words, but I willed myself to listen.
