My third story I have written. This chapter my sound a bit boring but trust me it will get better! The characters in this story may not have the expected personality but I believe its the characters itself and the story that count, but that's my point of view.

I've included a glimpse or preface of one of the upcoming chapters just to keep my readers interested.

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

Summary,

What do you do when someone higher up then you loved the same person?

As a child, Xemnas grew up neglected by his father Diz and his brother Ansem. Now that Xemnas is older, his brother shows him a bit more compassion. From being left out as a child, Xemnas grew up thinking of himself as an unworthy man but things begin to change when a young man named Saïx comes along.

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

Preface

Xemnas hit the ground hard. His head throbbed with pain. All he remembered was a blade targeting towards him. But why is it that the only pain he could feel is the pounding in his head? As he came to his senses, he felt a heavy weight on top of him. His eyes focused on the heavy object and turns out to be a body. With horror, he began to panic.

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

Chapter One,

Substance froth from the tube as Xemnas combined the mixtures into the other.

"Whoops, A bit too much" He spoke in half tone and ended it with a chuckle.

Good thing no one is here. He thought to himself as he glanced around the laboratory. It was rare that he would make a mistake but even the most intelligent ones make mistakes. He would remind himself of this quite often to avoid bad thoughts when his experiments doesn't go as expected.

Knowing the mixture will burn his hand, he yanked out his safety gloves from his pocket and slide them on. Grabbing the cloth that's hanging on the sink rim, he cautiously gave the foamy substance a wipe, avoiding it from splattering everywhere.

The laboratory door suddenly barged open, startling Xemnas from his full concentration on wiping. Good thing he wasn't mixing or else things would of gotten ugly. He quickly turned around to see his brother Ansem standing at the door way. He stood with his usual pose, arms cross over his chest, his legs slightly parted and his head would be tilted downwards. His skin had a soft tan texture. His hair, long and silver, similar to his own. Many people would tell him how much alike they looked. Of course they would have similar characteristics, they are brothers.

"How's the experiment turning out?" Ansem asked with his masculine voice.

"Everything is going as planned. However, it would of been a disaster if you would of barged in any sooner" Xemnas replied sharply.

Ansem arched his eyebrow, not quite getting what he meant.

"I don't quite know what you mean, but as long as the progress is going as you predicted then father will be most pleased"

Since when did he ever get any gratitude from his father? It is Ansem, the one who got all the attention. No wonder why father had chosen him to be in charge of the castle while he's absent.

Xemnas nodded. "I"m sure he will be pleased more by you" He rebuked.

"Don't worry, I'll make sure father gives you some credit" Ansem spited, making the word ''some'' stood out from the rest.

"I appreciate your generosity. However, I do believe the rest of the credit will go to someone who doesn't quite deserve it"

Ansem shook his head with disapproval. "Xem... "

A sudden knocked on the door cut him short. Xemnas let out a relief. He knew that his brother would have his big speech about how he is better then what he think he is. Which would take hours for him to escape from.

"Enter!" Ansem called out.

A man with a patch over his right eye poked his head in the room. His one eye searched the room until he spotted the man he was looking for.

"Sir" He acknowledged.

"Yes, Xigbar?"

Xigbar was the type a guy who everyone got along with. Not to mention how extremely loud he is. Xemnas father treated him like he was his second son. This would make Xemnas feel even more deserted. However, this didn't change the way he thought about him. After all, he is a nice guy and who else keeps him entertained when he is bored?

"There is a young man here who wants to see you"

"Tell the young man that I'll be there shortly"

"Yes sir"

"No wait, take the young man to my office. I'll meet him there"

"Yes sir" He said before he disappeared out the door.

He turned towards Xemnas "I want you to come see me in my office later on, we'll talk there. In the mean time, finish up the research paper so I can review them later"

"Certainly, I'll have the results in no time, do to my outstanding intelligence"

"You sound very confident, so I shouldn't have to worry. I'll be looking forward for your company this evening"

"Later, brother" Ansem said as he strode out the room.

Xemnas lips curved in a satisfying grin. His recent snide remarks were quite an achievement. Since their father wasn't around, this was the opportunity bite at him. Putting that thought to the side, Xemnas continued to what he was doing before he was interrupted.

Xemnas noticed the mixture he had spilled earlier had left a dark stain. He recapped the scene in his head and chuckled to himself once more.

"Hey Xemnas!" Xigbar called out behind him.

Xemnas jolted, exiting his trance. "Stop jumping out of nowhere like that. One of these days this place is going to blow" Xemnas chided.

"Now if you keep your mind off of Xaldin wearing tights then you won't have that problem now would you?" Xigbar joked.

"Please Xigbar, I don't want to be involved with your fantasies"

Xigbar let out a hysterical laugh. "Man you're good at those comebacks. One of these days I am going to get you good where you won't know what to say"

"Well I won't be expecting that anytime soon" Xemnas laughed.

"No comment there"

"So, yeah anyway" Xigbar hopped up on the countertop.

"The guy I mentioned earlier, you should see him. He's quite a good looking young man. I bet Ansem will get his hands on him anytime soon"

"Ah really?" Xemnas tried to make him sound interested.

"Yeah. He has this long blue hair with spikes on top and he has this mellow sounding voice"

"You came all the way here to talk about some new guy?" Xemnas asked.

"Who else would of came and told you the latest gossip?"

"I'm sure Zexion might of"

"I don't even think he knows what's going on. Half of the time that kid is stuck in a tree" Xigbar joked as he jumped off of the countertop.

Xemnas chuckled. "I suppose you're right"

"Well I got to go find mad scientist number two. So catch yeah later"

"Later, Xig"

Xemnas started writing his paper before anymore interruptions. He didn't mind if it were on any other day, but today was his special day. Today's the deadline of his reports and his brother isn't good at meeting deadlines. So this is where he would feel more content.
