OMA! Plot bunny totally bit me, here! I realllllly need to write this! Yes, there are Yaoi pairings. Can you figure 'em all out? Yes, there is an OCxZexion. I made up this OC in my other FF, and I just fell in love with her! So, yes, using her again! My goodness, this story is gonna be long, honestly. I'm guessing around 15 chapters. Crap. This means it'll take awhile to finish!!!~crys~ Damn plot bunnies!
Darkness swirls… a strange man in a cloak… Elaxveri, is my name… Strange black creatures… what is all of this? My …memories, he said. But.. why do I have so little? I know so little. Like, how did I come here? He told me my heart was destroyed by … the strange black things, but how? And why? What is a heart, anyway? The man with the silver hair... he gave me more questions than answers.
"We are here to welcome a fifteenth member, Elaxveri. Her heart was taken recently. She will need a mentor." Xemnas stated from his perch on the white chair, while a young girl with red hair, freckles, and steely blue eyes peered up at him nervously from a small stand far below.
"I would normally teach her myself, but as Kingdom Hearts is slowly forming, I have no time. Please speak now if you wish to guide her, or I will choose." Xemnas continued, looking around at all the members. Most everyone just sat blankly, inspecting the new girl. She didn't look like much of threat, she didn't even look like she could hurt someone. They sat like that for a moment, before Xemnas decided no one was going to volunteer.
"Fine, Axel, you can watch her, as I see you have done so with the other new members al-" Axel cut him off.
"Superior, I apologise, but as you said, I did train the last two rookies, and am still training one. I can't take another one."
"Right. Who else will go?" Xemnas look around all the faces again, as though studying them. He seemed to be judging who would be best.
"Xaldin. You will guide her. Her abilities are solely for recon and capturing, I doubt she will be able to go. Don't push her." Xemnas got a grunt in reply from the man in the large black ponytail. The new girl watched the conversation curiously, trying to figure out how everything worked here. It seemed the silver haired man, who she first met, was in charge. And that …Spikey, bright red haired guy… Axel, was it? Seemed to be useful to him, and…. That Zexion guy didn't look like he cared about much; he was just idly flipping the pages of the book. The last thing she knew was about the man with the black ponytail. He was supposed to guide her, teach her. But he didn't look happy about it. In fact, he looked like he'd rather… kill her, than teach her.
"Alright. Everyone, go." Xemnas concluded, and in a swish of darkness, he vanished in from sight. The other members followed suit, aside from Xaldin and Elaxveri.
"You coming, kid, or what?" He grunted from his high chair, staring down at the cowering girl. She just looked up at him, unsure what to do.
"Call the darkness, kid." He sighed, placing his hands on his knee. Still, she stared.
"Imagine yourself being engulfed in a black cloud, and then imagine the room Xemnas showed you. The darkness will take you there. But, you have to remember it in detail, or you will get lost." He explained, and with a nod of his head, he too had gone into the darkness. Elaxveri stood there, frightened. She wasn't sure if it would work. Would she be stuck here forever? She decided to try as Xaldin said, and, after a couple of minutes, she was gone, too.
Startled, the burgundy haired girl stumbled out of the swirling black mass, landing into the arms of a very confused looking blonde, with three small loop earrings lining the shell of each ear, and blonde stubble along his chin.
"'Ello there, you alright?" The girl nodded in reply.
"Did you get confused? I mean, the rooms all do look the same." Another nod.
"I'm Luxord. Come on; let's head to your room. It would be… five down from mine, right? Yes, I think so…" He trailed off in thought, lifting her to her feet and opening the door. Elaxveri walked out of the room, into a long grey hallway. Luxord stepped in front of her, leading her down the hall to her own room.
"This yours?" He asked when they stopped outside a room marked XV. Once again, the girl nodded.
"Alright. Call on me if you need me, oh kay? Dear Xaldin seems to be in a terrible mood." Luxord nodded solemnly, opening the door for her. Nod.
"Ok, Luv. Cheerio!" He called to her, turning around and walking down the hallway, black cloak trailing behind him. Closing the door, she sat on her bed with a sigh. This was all so confusing. Although, when a black mass opened up in her room, she opened her mouth in a silent scream and jumped off the bed, all trains of thought gone. Hiding behind it, she watched as the intruder came into view.
"Jumpy, are we?" The man, presumably Axel, chuckled. The girl just stared at him from behind the frame, not daring to move.
"Sorry, sorry. I just wanted you to meet my friends Roxas and Xion, they both arrived recently, they might help you. And I figure I'll be nice and show you around, since Xaldin is off sulking in his room. He doesn't like people much, so just be quiet and do exactly as he says on the missions, kay? You'll only have to go on a few with him, anyway. Come on, let's go to the gray room." Axel took a few steps closer to her, holding out his hands. Elaxveri slowly loosened her death grip on the bed and grabbed his hand, allowing the redhead to pull her up. This was the second time someone had to help her up. Axel opened a portal for both of them, leading her through it, into a large room, with two white sofas on each side, surrounding a white table. The walls and floor was grey, and the back of the room had a large window showing a heart shaped moon, which hung right in the centre. Sitting on one of the sofas were Zexion and Demyx, and standing in front of the window was Saix. Xion and Roxas were running up to meet Axel now, Roxas with a big bear hug and Xion with a cheery greeting.
"Hey, guys! Meet the new kid! She is just like Xion was, wasn't she, Roxy? Although, much, much weaker. Poor thing, she has to put up with Xaldin. Don't know what Xemnas was thinking when he did that, honestly." Axel laughed, patting the top of her hood. Elaxveri just noticed this now, but, it seemed he had to an upside down diamond mark under each eye. It was pretty. She turned slightly, and reached out a hand to touch them, slowly tracing the lines with one finger.
"What are you doing?" Axel and Roxas both asked at the same time, Axel sounding confused, and ROxas sounding irritated. Xion gave a knowing smirk at Roxas, who's cheeks slowly turned pink. She pulled her hand away and lowered her face, not wanting to speak.
"She's so quiet. Was I like this?" Xion asked, peering over at Roxas.
"Ya, but probably worse. You didn't go stroking random people's cheeks." Roxas glared at Elaxveri, who looked very embarrassed.
"Oh, don't make her feel bad. She was just looking at his tattoos, Rox." Xion scolded, pulling in the burgundy haired girl for a hug. The girl stiffened, raising her face to look at what Xion was doing.
"Oh, silly! I was just trying to comfort you. Someone can get a bit jealous!" Xion let go of her and stared pointedly at Roxas, who sat down on a sofa beside Zexion, hiding his face. The girl nodded.
"What the hell is going on? You guys seem to have all these secrets!" Axel grumbled confusion evident in his emerald eyes.
"Just one, Axel." Xion snickered, nudging Roxas. Zexion sighed, tearing his eyes away from the book.
"If you three are going to act like infants, please do so in your rooms. It's very difficult to concentrate." Zexion spoke icily, glaring at Axel.
"In a bad mood today, Zexy?" Axel asked, laying a hand on his shoulder. Roxas scooted away from him and fled to his room, Xion right behind him. They both knew this wasn't going to end well. Elaxveri watchedthe scene before her, mildly amused. It seemed the blonde boy, Roxas, was possessive of the redhead, Axel, and the raven haired girl, Xion, seemed to know about this. It also appeared that the slate haired man (Zexy?) did not like noises, nor was he particularly fond of Axel, but Axel treated him like a companion.
Zexion shook the hand off.
"Just go about your business, Axel." He spat, his eyes once more resting on his book. Axel pouted at Zexion, before wrapping his arms around the man's neck and cooing in his ear,
"Did someone have to go on a trip to HalloweenTown?"
"Fuck off, Axel."
"The kids again, eh, Zexy?"
" FUCK OFF, Axel." Zexion spoke the words slowly, pronouncing them very clearly. Axel snickered and removed his arms, patting the top of Zexion's head. Zexion muttered a few unintelligible words under his breath, before swatting his book at Axel and casting a random Aero Magic.
"I'm gone, Zexy! Soooooooooorry!" Zxel laughed, sprinting away to find Xion and Roxas. Elaxveri stared at Zexion, starting from his hair, with the fringe over his violet eyes, all the way to his black boots, which had seen better days. Zexion looked at her for a moment too, before opening his book and reading again. Elaxveri stood there.
"Fifteen?" Nod.
"You may as well sit down. Xaldin will show up soon enough." Patting the cushion beside him, the blue eyed girl tentatively sat down, glancing at Zexion every once in awhile. He intrigued her. She wasn't sure why. True, he had lilac colored hair, and pale skin, with deep cobalt blue eyes, which made him look colorful, but weren't Saix and Axel colorful, too? Zexion didn't seem much different, besides his quiet. Elaxveri really didn't know him yet.
Zexion got her glancing at him again. She stared.
"Hello." Stare.
"You aren't able to speak yet, mm?" Nod.
"Has Xaldin told you anything about this place yet?" Shake.
"Has anyone?" Nod.
"Right then. I am Zexion. You are Elaxveri, I assume?" Nod.
"I must be going. If Xaldin doesn't show up, I am in room VI." And with that, Zexion closed his book and walked down the room to the hallway, disappearing from her sight. Elaxveri sat for awhile, breathing in his scent. She didn't have a memory of any scents, so she couldn't name it, but she knew she liked it. She would have to see him again.
"XV, we're going on the mission now. Get your ass up." Xaldin walked up to her, opening a portal. She got up hesitantly, scared to go anywhere alone with this man. Besides, she wasn't even sure what the hell was happening. She stepped through th eprotal into the middle of a small town, with a small stalls clustered around the sides.
"Ok, so we're here to teach you to fight. Get out your weapon." Stare.
"Do you know how to do that?" Stare.
"Just… aw, fuck… just… feel the weapon, allow your mind to wander, until you can see that, then… will it into being. I ain't explaining that twice. Do it." He glared at her, then proceeded to watch around the town for any sign of a living being, since the Nobodies were not meant to be known. After a moment, he heard a faint whistling sound.
"You did it? That was quick." Elaxveri was now holding a long, silk-like cord, embedded with small rubies. The cord was a soft blue, tinged with red and black on the sides. It didn't look hard enough to hurt anyone, it only looked strong enough to restrain someone. It had a small curved handle, with a small turquoise gem connecting the cord with the handle.
"Oh, nobodie, that weapon won't be able to do anything! It's all glittery and soft." Xaldin grumbled, realizing that he was gonna have to do the fighting. He led her around the town, strangely enough encountering no heartless.
"This is the forest. See how it's got an X barrier? That means the Organisation doesn't need us going in there. So don't." He explained, when she wandered over closer to look at it. Nodding, she turned around, to come face to face with a small, pitch black heartless, glowing amber eyes boring into her. With a soundless yelp, she jumped backwards, pinned between the wall and the heartless. Xaldin watched with amusement, deciding that if she couldn't fight off one heartless, she wasn't worth it in the organization. She pleaded Xaldin with her eyes, but when he made no move about help her, she pulled out her weapon. As the heartless came closer, she brought it up high, and whipped it out at the heartless, successfully trapping it. The heartless thrashed around for a couple of seconds, before finally giving up. When it gave up, the girl pulled the cord back. A faint, shimmering white sheet started to cover the heartless where the silken cord had once been, eventually turning into a giant, shimmering gem, with the heartless trapped in the middle.
"How long does that last?" Xaldin asked, with sincere curiously. Elaxveri glanced at him, then at the clock, then to the heartless, and back to Xaldin.
"Alright, we'll time it. That is still a sad excuse for a weapon, if it could even be called that. Worse than Larxenes knives, honestly." They watched the clock for anoth couple of minutes, before the gem broke and the heartless fell out, looking utterly exhausted. Xaldin summoned his lances and drove them through the creatures chest, watching it fade.
"I could still be useful, anyway. I gues you'll only be able to do recon and team missions, huh. Ter-r-ific." Xaldin drew out the last word slowly, still glaring at her. Elaxveri was confused. Why would he treat her like that?
"Alright, come on, kid. We're outta here." Xaldin grumbled, opening up another portal. They walked through it into the grey room, and Elaxveri stood there watching as Xaldin reported his findings to Saix. Saix nodded at him, and dismissed Xaldin.
"Hello." Saix walked over to Elaxveri, looking down upon her.
"Please take down your hood. I wish to see your face." Saix tilted his head to the side, peering intently at her. Slowly, she took down her hood, revealing piercing, steel blue eyes that became tinted with green when it was expressly warm, full soft lips, dark freckles, and deep burgundy hair. She had shown her face at the meeting, of course, but Saix wasn't able to see it from his height, and it was always interesting to see the new faces. Besides, he hadn't spoken to a woman aside from Larxene and xion, but Larxene was not that pretty and Xion was a puppet. Disgusting, tainted. Not worth his time.
"Your very beautiful, aren't you, pet…?" He purred, stroking her cheek with one cold hand. His icy blue hair fell on his amber eyes, almost, but not quite hiding them. His eyes were clouded with want and need. Elaxveri cringed at his touch, attempting to move away when he put an arm around her.
"It's not like you'd fight back anyway, pet, would you? According to Xaldin, you would be unable to kill or harm me, if you tried. You were so upset at having to hurt the heartless, weren't you?" He chuckled darkly. Elaxveri quickly summoned her weapon, but he wrenched that out of her hand and threw it into a portal.
"You can have it back when I'm done… I haven't felt a woman's touch in so long." He murmured under his breath, wrapping an arm around her waist and pulling her closer. Elaxveri was terrified of what was happening, she didn't know what it was, but she knew she did not want it and that it was going to hurt. It didn't feel right. Suddenly, Saix crashed his lips onto her hers, digging his nails into her cheek when she tried to pull away. The girl whimpered when he forced his tongue into her mouth, trying desperately to shove him off.
"Hey! Saix, honestly, she just got here!"" Luxord cried, sprinting into the room. Saix let her go with a sigh, and opened another portal to retain her weapon.
"Why do you care, Luxord?" Saix grumbled, handing her the weapon.
"Well, you don't expect her to want to work for you if you do that. Why'd you listen to me, anyway? "
"Because, I realized when you came in here that it was indeed not best to do this in the open."
"Why not just not do it at all? The girl is terrified, Saix." LUxord hastily pulled her into his arms, tightening his hold on the frightened redhead.
"Hm. Yes, but does it matter? It's not a true emotion, just a memory of an emotion. Nobodies don't feel. She probably had something like this happen to her before, and is just replaying the scenario."
"Alright. It is not in my place to speak to you like that, anyway. I do apologise, Saix." Luxord said sarcastically. He picked Elaxveri up and cradled her in his arms, quietly leading them out of the room. As he walked down the hallway, he spotted Zexion and Axel, who seemed to be arguing.
"Hey, Lux. What's with her?" Axel called out as he saw the blonde walking towards him, pointing at Elaxveri.
"Saix." Luxord grunted, struggling beneath the weight. Zexion and Axel ran up to him, Axel grabbing her arms and head, Zexion handling her legs. She didn't stir.
"What, did he fuck her that hard?" Axel lifted her easily, and took her legs from Zexion.
"Naw, I think she's just tired. She fell asleep halfway here. Saix didn't fuck her. Just made out with her. She didn't know what the hell he was doing, and I saw one of his hands go into some pretty personal places." Luxord explained, shaking his arms to loosen the muscle again.
"She's lucky he only did that much." Zexion agreed, summoning a dusk. The dusk brought a small white pillow, which Zexion took and carefully placed between the sleeping girls head and Axel's chest.
"That was nice, Zexion. My chest was starting to hurt." Axel laughed, winking at his friend.
"It wasn't for you, Axel. You are pretty bony." Zexion sighed, narrowing his eyebrows.
"Just kidding. Why do you care about her? You never help anyone, you barely even notice the rest of us are here." Axel stopped laughing, throwing a quick look at the cloaked schemer as they started walking down the hallway. Luxord went the other way, intent to get a good long sleep before his next mission.
"Because, unlike you, Axel, she's fragile. Can't you see?" Zexion waved his hands around, just for emphasis.
"Well, duh. But what about Xion, hm? You didn't care about her, she's pretty damn fragile."
"She had you and Roxas."
"And so does Elaxveri. Well, maybe not Roxy, but me."
"Xion is a puppet, not an actual member."
"Don't say that."
"I'm not going to lie."
"She's my friend."
"Nobodies can't feel."
"I hate you sometimes, Zexion, you're so mean." Axel glared at his smaller friend, before kicking open a door marked XV and dumping the girl on the bed. Zexion stared pointedly at the blanket, before Axel sighed and the white sheet over the girls curved body, picking up the pillow that she had been using and placing it under her head.
"Hm, your right, she is fragile." Axel muttered, watching her. Elaxveri's eyes were shut lightly, fluttering every couple of seconds when Axel or Zexion shifted and a small breexe blew past them. Her hair Fell onto her face, covering half of it. Her body was curved in the fetal position and she was clutching at the blanket, her soft hands gripping it so tightly that Axel was sure that if the blanket had blood, it would be bleeding now.
"Why does she grip the blanket like that?" Axel asked, turning around to open the door.
"I don't know. It could be a dream." Zexion offered, following out behind Axel, closing the door quietly.
"She seems so innocent, I'm not sure how the other member will treat her. We're probably going to have to watch out for her like we did for Roxas, you know? I mean, look at what already happened with Saix." Axel went on and on, mostly about how he reminded her of when Roxas first came into the organization, and how he really should watch her, but that would mean missing time with Roxas.
"They're different, though, Axel. He's much stronger. I can watch her, and it seems Luxord will help. Don't give up on Roxas, Axel. You know you love him, and you at least know he needs you." Zexion stated, walking at a slow pace beside his red haired friend.
"Ya. He does. Thanks, Zexion. I'm sure she will appreciate it. The Organisation can be pretty scary."
Ok, that's it! I would like to thank my friend Daniel for editing it!
