This is my first Kingdom Hearts fanfic! I'm absolutely addicted to the game, and the manga is hilarious. Could you just imagine how epic a movie would be!! My favorite organization members are Axel and Demyx, so this story will revolve around them mostly, but I will try to incorporate the others in as well. Get them all together and they're a funny bunch .
Please read and review! Hope you enjoy!
I do not own Kingdom Hearts, but Evid and Tod are mine. And any other character I make up.
"Trick or treat!" Evid waited at the bottom of the short drive while she waited for Tod, the kid she was baby-sitting, to finish getting his chocolate. He'd declared he didn't want her to go up with him, he was a big boy after all, but she kept a good eye on him. Halloween was one her favorite times of the year, the others being Easter, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and birthdays. Even though she didn't go trick or treating for herself she enjoyed dressing up. Last year she had dressed as a princess, at Tod's request.
This year she was a pirate…also at Tod's request who was also dressed as a pirate. He looked like a miniature Jack Sparrow. Then again, Jack Sparrow was whom Tod had borrowed the costume from.
As Tod returned Evid stole a quick glance at the costume Elizabeth Swann had lent her. The older woman had claimed it was the latest from the Pirate Queen Collection; a series of pirate dresses of various styles and colors. The one she wore was white with off the shoulder bell sleeves. The front of the layered skirt came down to just above her knees, while the back went to her calves. Her neckline and the hems of the sleeves and skirt were trimmed in white lace. Cinching the dress tight to her body was a black bodice, showing off more of her curvy figure than she cared for. Her shoes were white sandals. Plain and simple for a Halloween costume, but Elizabeth had assured her she looked great. Not that she really cared.
Tod took her hand in his, pulling her down the side walk. "How much time do we have?" he asked.
Evid pulled her cell phone out of Tod's candy bag and looked at the digital clock. "8:00," she answered. Tod's face became thoughtful.
"Do I have time for one more house?"
She grinned. They didn't really have time, he had to be home in thirty minuets and it was a long walk back, but he deserved it. "Sure."
'Yay!" He pulled on her hand harder as he began to run. "Come on I know just the house!"
Axel leaned against a tree, twirling a Chakram with one hand, as he watched the kids passing by with amusement. He lifted his arm to look at his watch before remembering he wasn't wearing one. His eyes met with the long sleeve of a black cloak and a hand covered with a black glove. A simple costume. When a group of kids had asked him what he and his friends what they were Xigbar had replied bluntly, "Assassins."
He chuckled as he slightly unzipped his cloak to reach into an inside pocket, pulling out his cell phone to check the time. It worked for Xigbar, after all he was carrying his two Arrowguns, and for Larxene was well with her knives, but the rest of them? Etheral Blades, Lances, a Shield, Tomahawk, Lexicon, Claymore, Chakrams, a Sitar, Scythe, and Keyblades did not inspire the "assassin" mood for him. He flicked a glance at the digital clock. 8:05.
"Come on Demyx," Axel grumbled. He'd been waiting for an hour now. Sighing he straightened and stretched. Tall as he was, his Chakrams only added to his heigth, and they scraped against a low branch on the tree. "Oops," he said, lowering his arms. The spiky red head resumed spinning his weapons, making sure to stay back away from the side-walk. These weren't plastic toys. He stared across the street, quickly growing bored. He was vaguely aware of teenage girls of various ages casting glances at him as they passed, giggling and nodding to each other. He resisted the attempt to roll his eyes at both them and their choice of costumes; which varied from whoreish looking faries to skanky Alice in Wonderland to princesses who looked more like sex slaves. It took all of his power not to throw up then and there.
"Hey Axel!" Axel turned at the sound of the voice. Xigbar, followed by Luxord and Xaldin. "What you doing just standing there? You look like a stalker!"
"Ha," Axel replied. "Look who's talking. And for your information I'm waiting for Demyx; he's off getting Roxas and Zexion for the party at Kairi's and Namine's."
"Ah, yes," Luxord purred, he stroked his chin thoughfully. "The party. Do you you know who is going?"
"Me, Demyx, Roxas and Zexion obviously. Uuhh...Sora, Riku, Donald, Goofy...then there's Marluxia, Larxene, Xion, Vexen, Laxeus, and Saix." He tilted his head to the sky, thoughtful. He'd recieved numerous forwards about the party from so many of the gang it was hard to remember who all was going. "Cloud, Tifa, Leon...Seifer...Jasmin and Alladin...Belle and Beast...Ariel and Eric...Sleeping Beuaty and Phillip." He shrugged. "I'm sure you get the idea. Just about everybody."
"Why not Xemnes?" Xaldin asked. The bulky man stood with his beefy arms crossed. A couple of girls, who were walking without really paying attention, ran into him. They looked up, squeaked, and scittered away. Xaldin closed his eyes and sighed, Xigbar laughed outright, and Luxord and Axel chuckled. Poor guy. It wasn't his fault he looked like a bear.
Axel shrugged, giving one of his Chakrams an extra vigirious flip, releasing it momentarily before catching it again. "I tried to convince him but no dice." Luxord raised an eyebrow. "Said he was too busy."
"As if," Xigbar grinned. "More like too chicken. Isn't Marly going?" Axel nodded. Now Xaldin shared in the laughter. "I thought so."
"Come Xaldin," Luxord said with a breezy voice. "Let us go see if we can go and confince Xemmy not to fold this round." The two darted away with Luxord calling over his shouldar, "Don't wait up. We'll meet you at the party!"
"Oh thank goodness," Axel sighed. Xigbar lauhed again.
"Kairi tells me she's inviting some friends from her school," he stated. He sat on the ground and leaned back against the tree. Axel followed suit. His feet were starting to hurt. "I've never met her other friends."
"You're not the only one. I don't think any of us have met her school friends." Axel chuckled. "Probably keeping them a secret from you and Marluxia. Trying to keep them safe from your womanizing." Xigbar punched his shoulder playfully.
"Ha, as if." The two laughed some more before they heard Demyx, Roxas, and Zexion coming at a run. All three, like Axel and the others, were wearing long black leather cloaks with black gloves on their hands. Demyx's Sitar was strapped to his back, Zexion held his Lexicon in one hand, while Roxas kept Oathkeeper and Oblivian as close to his body as possible to prevent gutting some innocent bistander. They all stopped in front of Axel and Xigbar, panting.
"Sorry we're late," Demyx breathed. "Some chick was attempting to flirt with Zexion, and, well, we just let her have at it because it was so funny!" Despite being out of breath and weezing Roxas chortled to himself while Zexion allowed a small smile. He had to admit that it had been quite amusing.
"Thought it was something like that," Xigbar said as he stood. "Now come on. You know how Kairi gets when people are late to her large get together parties."
Evid stared at the ceiling as she lounged on Kairi's large, fashionable yet comfortable couch in her ridiculously huge living room in her even more ridiculously huge house. Or, maybe it was more properply described as a freaking mansion. She fought to not look at her new costume for the billionth time. As soon as she'd arrived, Kairi had pushed the costume on her, saying that while Elizabeth's new costume was cute it was not for what she had in mind tonight. Evid enjoyed dressing up on Halloween but couldn't afford the extravagent ones that Kairi could. Unlike her friend, she was not uber-wealthy.
The blonde looked around the room at her other friends briefly. They were all dressed up in some get up or another; somehow in ones that rather fit their personalities. Tifa sat in recliner, flipping through a magazine. Coral, Aislenn, Wes, and Donia sat in the center of the living room playing cards, while Marly and Charla talked quietly in a corner. They were about the same age as Tifa, and probably felt out of place in a room full of teenage girls. Evid could hear Namine and Kairi scurrying around in the kitchen as they hurried to get things ready for the party that she was having tonight. Instantly Evid wished she hadn't let Tod go home with Candy, a neighbor of Tod's, as she took in the decorations floating around the house.
Sighing she sat up. "Are you sure you two don't want any help in there?" she called to the sisters.
"We're sure," Namine responded in her quiet voice.
"What I want to know is when these guys you were talking about are coming over," Coral said, picking up some cards from the center deck. Evid grinned. They were playing Go Fish. It looked like Coral was winning.
"They're on their way. Xigbar just texted me that he, Axel, Roxas, Demyx and Zexion are on their way. Sora, Goofy, Donald and Riku should be here any minute," Kairi told them, darting in with a bowl of popcorn and a plate of crackers and salami. "He also told me that Luxord and Xaldin are getting Xemnas. Cloud, Leon, and Seifer are also on they're way over, along with all the other guys."
"Well they'd better hurry their asses," a snippy voice said coming into the room. They all looked to Larxene. "I'm not waiting forever to party."
"Patience Larxene," Belle commented. Behind them came the rest of the girls. Without a word Snow White and Cinderella went into the kitchen to help.
"Sure," Evid commented dryly. "Let them assist you but not me."
"I don't want you to ruin your outfit," Kairi said. "I want it to be spick and span for when the guys get here." Evid puffed up her cheeks.
"I'm a clean cook!"
"We know, Kairi just doesn't want to take any chances," Namine assured her, putting liter sodas on the refreshment counter. The room lapsed into silence. Evid was about to lay back down when they heard the soft roar of motorcycles and cars. Squels abounded from the kitchen and the girls all but ran to finish putting out the food and cleaning up the messes they made. Kairi made it to the door just as the doorbell rang.
"Party time!" A loud voice said. In rushed Sora, followed closely by Donald and Goofy, and a much slower Riku. Close on their heels were Cloud, Leon, and Seifer, followed by Alladin and his friends. They were greeted by hugs and kisses. At least those who had girlfriends were.
"So...where are they?" Coral asked again. Around her Aislenn, Donia, and Wes had faces that said Coral had won...again.
"Coming," Kairi repeated. She stayed by the door, pulling out her cell phone and typing a text message. "They had better be." Suddenly her phone rang. She jumped before pressing the speaker button. "Xigbar where the heck are you?! Everyone else just got here but the thirteen of you!"
"It's not my fault," a voice with an accent spoke out. Some of the girls who knew Xigbar giggled, including Charla. "Demyx thought you guys wouldn't have enough food, and Roxas had to use the little boys room."
"Shut up!" another voice spoke up from the background. "Don't pin this on me you trigger happy gunslinger! We wouldn't be late if you hadn't blown a hole in one of the tires!"
"I have no idea what you guys are talking about."
"Liar!" This was exlaimed by at least four voices, including what Evid guessed was Roxas. The people in the room laughed.
"What happened?" Sora asked into the phone.
"The guy went crazy," a third voice said. "Some kids walked up behind him and scared the crap out of him. Unfortunately for us, he was holding his Arrowguns and...he...shot a freaking gapping hole in one of the tires of the car."
"Hey Xigbar, who did you call before Kairi?" asked a fourth voice.
"Marluxia, why?"
"Will you people shut up and get over here and help me!" a fifth voice exclaimed. "I am not changing the stupid frickin tire by myself!"
"Marluxia isn't coming to pick us up is he?" the third voice asked.
"What do you think?" Xigbar said. "Of course he isn't. He just laughed and told us to have fun."
"Oh that figures," the third voice commented with a grunt.
"You're one to talk Demyx," Roxas said. "You would have done the same thing."
"No I wouldn't!" The room filled with laughter again. "Hey, are we on speaker phone? This is the second time that has happened."
"Never mind that; when are you guys getting here?" Namine asked.
"Lucky for us Axel and Zexion know how to change a car tire, and they're pretty good at it," Xigbar began. Two voices shouted, "You're the one who should be doing this, you fired the gun!" Ignoring them he continued, "Like I said, they're fast so we should be there a half hour at the latest."
"I hate you," Roxas muttered.
"Trick or treat!!"
"How many times do I have to tell you kids...WE DON'T HAVE ANY FREAKING CANDY!!!"
End of Chapter One, hope you guys liked it.
During the whole phone conversation, I was imagining just how funny it would be to hear that. Background noise on speaker phone is always so much fun because you can hear other people's conversations :).
Well, please read and review.
In the second chapter, the members of Organization XIII arrive and the party begins. Once again Kairi is at her match making games. Her targets: evey person in the room who is single!! Watch out those without a girl/boyfriend.
