pChapter 1 cold dawn/p
pcold, thats what she remember feeling at first as your eyes slowly opened, you could not see clearly at all, just blots of colors. What she was user of was the distinct lack of clothing, the fact more apparent on her soft pale skin goosebumps rising up, Where….am….I?br /
She thought the words slowly forming in her mind as she held her shoulders, she had no idea where she was, or how she had gotten there..or even her own name. Her long wavy golden hair hung down to her naked hips as she slowly sat up, body stiff as she rose. She blinked your eyes as the world spun a bit trying not makes sense of the unclear world you found yourself in, they burned at were sore and her head throbbed terribly. She wrapped her arms about her as she slowly stood the world slowly into focus , it was dark and shaded she could make out various shapes she stood on wobbling feet taking a few stumbling steps forward. She was ins some kind of hallway as her vision became clearer, the dark splotches turning more of an indigo blue she leaned against a half broken wall the ivy growing on it thick. Damn it shew as so cold! She hugged herself more tightly shivering violently. "well at the very least I wont have to carry you back to the castle..." said a monotoned voice, a distinctly masculine scent reached the golden haired girls nose some kind of cologne she honestly wasn't sure, it smelt like moss and sweet cloves smoky spicy and simple male? Shivering still she turned to look at the owner of the voice. It was a man in a black outfit with a cloak, he had a cold scowl expression on his face, with long blue hair that spiked up a bit on the top of his head, molten golden amber eyes looked into her with the look of boredom but….she couldn't be sure./p
pHe was well built broad shouldered with a strange scar forming an X right in the center of his face, it was large but didn't make him less attractive, if anything it made him even more so. Though the girl felt confused, as if the feelings she was experiencing were diluted and somewhat far away as if she were sensing the sensations of emotion through a very far lens. She became aware of a strange emptiness in the center of her chest which she couldn't understand but disliked. then, the slow realization of a lack of clothinghadher covering herself as best she man gave her a sneer before removing his long cloak tossing it in her direction. "I would suggest putting that one, you may catch your death of cold and I will have wasted my time and my superiors coming to find you." She stared dumbly at the cloak which flopped unceremoniously onto the ground in front of her forming a dust cloud before it settled. Then she blankly stared at the man who was beginning to look a bit annoyed? At /
His yellow eyes narrowing ever s slightly as if telling her to put it on , which she did, it was far too big for her but at least it was warm and she felt much more comfortable now./p
pShe had to clutch it tightly at the neck to keep the cold breeze which seemed to be coming from an entryway in shadow further up ahead d of her it was her dot tell in the last rays of twilight that she guessed was there,from hitting her neck once she felt it. she pulled the large hood over her head, the man now stood with a black tank top on, black pants ,gloves and boots. He seemed completely un affected by the chilly air in this cave or whatever it was. then an opening of black flame opened behind him " let's move on, the superior will not be kept waiting, taking a few steps forward was like torture, she felt so heavy and her vision went in and out of focus. Since she was taking to long for his liking, the wolf eyed man rolled his eyes and strode over lifting her into his arms before walking through the corridor of darkness in front of them. Once through they were in a white room with strange seats of varying heights. In the tallest sat a man with long silver hair and amber eyes, before she could even try to talk she was unceremoniously placed on the ground which for some reason made her feel cold again, something abut the man in the throne above her made her uneasy, his calm neutral expression belied something. "so this is our newest member." he said looking down at her his dark skin a contrast the white throne he sat /
"yes superior, luckily she was already standing and trying to walk about when I found her….but I do not think she can speak just yet." a humming came from the man in a baritone voice which made her shiver. "quite the strong will for someone so..delicate in appearance." "to already be moving after awakened such a short time ago, she will be a fine addition to our ranks, take her to Vexen to be examined more throughly, then have her rest in one our extra rooms, her uniform shall be distributed tomorrow."/p
pThe girl blinked her large dark green golden flecked eyes at the man above her gripping the cloak about her morebr /
"the lack of speech is typical of nobodies in the beginning…..we may give her a temporary name until as such she can speak…." Xemnas gave her a once over before stating " your name shall be for now, Ulixes...do you understand?" she gave him a nod to indicate she had understood. The silver haired man eyed her with a nearly invisible smile of cold amusement, " when you address me you shall call me your superior once you can speak is that understood?" She opened her mouth to address him properly, but nothing but a dry croak emerged, which made her shut it. This caused a cold smirk to form on the bluettes face to her side, a pathetic noise. however she straightened herself up and bowed halfway./p
pThis caused the master of the in-between to blink almost in surprise before making sure to restructure his expression back to its calm straight expression. The golden haired woman had a feeling disrespecting this man at all would not be wise. " Saix, Uliex you are dismissed." without another word they turned form the throne saix bowing and giving the superior his title before creating a corridor of darkness with which they both went through. First to to help train her, along with axel, he would question it but why was two of them required to awaken her power? the woman given her curves he couldn't call her a girl, didn't seem like he was needed but who was he to question his lords orders. then there was this scent other, sweet flower, yet something more, something fertile. Not unpleasant different, As the chilly academic looked her girl over, checking her pulse reactions finding her normal save for a sight sensitivity to light, given she was found inside a dark place devoid of much light. He told number 7 that she wooed adjust and simply needed to rest. She was very calm through the whole procedure which was fairly admirable. When Vexes grabbed ahold of her tongue to pull it out to check over however she protested wriggling and making a bit of noise. Fairly logical reason to make noise though. The academic of course paid it no mind and once that was over sent her and saix off./p
pThe pair silently walked down the hall the sound of saix's boots clicking on the floor as his barefooted companion walked beside him the gentle pit pat of her white feet on the cold tiles. She shivered a bit as they walked clenching the overly large cloak about herself tightly again. The luna diviner gave her a neutral expression. Uliex sensing his piercing gaze upon her turned her own eyes to his and they briefly mad eyes contact causing Saix to turn away. "we will be arriving at your room shortly, your uniform will be sent you in the morning." She looked at him opening her mouth the dry croak apparent but not as raw as before but It made her cough. Saix ran a hand through his hair "I would suggest not straining your vice so recently after your awakening..." The pale skinned blonde blinked at him as they paused in front of the generic room door which the promptly enter. "this shall your room." he stated snapping a finger and a dusk appeared "these are called dusks they are a servants so to speak..former members who failed one too many missions,I would suggests you not cause any trouble unless you would like to join their ranks." without a another word he turned on his heels heading to the door "once I leave give this dusk the cloak you are wearing and it will be brought back to me...if you wish to bathe there are nessecities in the second drawer all members have them this servant will guide you to the showers and restrooms later one after its returned the cloak to me simply call for it in your mind and it will come, if you wish for anything a bit more personalized I would wait until we have awoken your power before going anywhere to get what you desire." he said this in a broken record bored sounding voice. Ulie watched as he walked out "i would suggest resting….because tomorrow, the test of your worth begins." then he smirked "I do hope you wont be croaking like a frog tomorrow." with that he shut the door./p
pUliex Walked to the bed she looked out the window seeing the light of a small kingdom hearts glowing in the sky. She sighed she didn't understand anything, she let the cloak fall from her nude form her body crumpling to the ground she stepped away staring at the minuscule kingdom hearts glowing in the distance from the window. The dusk wasted no time retrieving the article of clothing o the ground slithering in the air and sliding out of the room. Uliex laid on the bed exhausted taking no heed of the white servants absence and sliding under the soft covers. The feeling of it against her skin was soothing, this was where she belonged now, she gave a soft yawn closing her tired eyes staring out at the darkened sky where it had begun to rain the gentle pitter pattering sound of the rain against the window of her room soothing her into sleep. The dusk slipped itself into saix's room the cloak neatly folded in the long white fingers as it presented the article of clothing to its original owner who sat at the desk beside his bed looking over documents. A stiff frown upon his face,br /
"ahh so she finally decided to give it to you did she." he waved a dark gloved hand over at the bed not even turning form his work near the pc computer numbers and letters and image flashing over it as he swiftly typed not making on grammatical error on it. "leaving on the bed and be off with you, you have served you purpose." without a single word the creature left after placing the cloak gently on the white bed, then made it's tapping dancing like way out of the room not wanting to tarry. Once it was gone saix looked over to the bed where the cloak lay smooth and unwrinkled, after neatly stacking the paper work away and turning off the lamp beside him on the desk./p
pHe walked over to the bed staring at he cloak picking it up letting it fall free he brought it to his nose, the woman's scent was till upon it. All the stress from the paperwork and dealign with the idiotic antics of his fellow members seemed to disappear. This was strange, he should not have felt calmed be a mere scent, yet it did made him feel….something, he hung it over one of his bed posts and removed he remains of the his clothing sighing laying on his sheets he closed his eyes , the stern look on his handsome though scared face relaxing into peaceful sleep, the woman's soft, sweet, sensual scent filled his senses. He had not slept as well as he did that night, since he was whole./p
