Keselyx: This is a wonderful story of a holiday dinner. With a family called the Lyszerxon's. They live in a nice little town that no one knows about. Their lives are quite awkward. The main place of residence is Mr. and Mrs. Lyszerxon's house. Here, Xalex Lyszerxon and Xanida Lyszerxonlive with two freeloaders. These freeloaders are Xalex's fellow sisters, Xiana and Keselyx. (You see Xalex is a sister, regardless to him being a guy for his whole life) Xiana and Keselyx Lyszerxon lived happily in this house. Frankly speaking Xalex was a pushover. He just couldn't kick his fellow sisters out. His brother on the other hand he could kick out. Actually Xguillermo had been disinherited by the family and now lives in the ocean as a great blue whale. Xalex's other brother, Xarndew, had left the family as soon as he could. Actually Xarndew was the only one old enough to go to college. College was where Xarndew lived. He rarely came home, and rarely visited Xalex's family and freeloaders. So here is where we begin. In the house of the Lyszerxon's as they prepare for the holidays. What a festive time!!!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Gathering of Old Men
It was a cold morning in the town where the Lyszerxon's lived. No one quite knew the town name. No one quite cared either. The town was known as The Town Where The Lyszerxon's Lived, and no one cared to change it. So anyway, the town was cold, or rather the morning was cold, or to be even more correct the temperature in The Town Where The Lyszerxon's Lived was below 0 degrees Fahrenheit. So in The Town Where The Lyszerxon's Lived that was below 0 degrees Fahrenheit something was cooking. This something was cooking in the Lyzerxon's house. It was a holiday feast made by Xanida and Xalex. The two freeloaders watched, not knowing how to nor wanting to cook.
"Wanna do something else?" Keselyx whined. She had a short attention span and hated sitting and watching people work.
"Yes!" Xiana took her first chance to get out of there. The two sisters headed straight out the door.
Before they could get much farther than that, "Keselyx get your butt back in here!" Xanida knew that Keselyx would come back in, because Xanida had just taken out a fresh pumpkin pie.
Immediately Keselyx ran into the room, slide on the tile floor and nearly fell on her butt. "What do you want?!" Her tone was annoyed, but her eyes eagerly watched the pie.
"I need you to call Xarndew." Xanida held the pie out of the starving girl's reach. Xiana watched in disgust and Xalex watched a bit ashamed, but truthfully he had gotten used to it.
"Xarndew? My long long, long, long, lost brother that doesn't care about our family at all! He-who-left-and-chose-never-to-return-until-he-majors-in-everything?! Why should I call HIM?!"
"Because he's on his way and we don't want him to get lost."
"Yes, certainly!" Keselyx nodded vigorously, "WE of course don't want him to get lost, but he wants to get lost. He doesn't like us."
"That's not entirely true," Xiana jumped in. "If he didn't like us he'd hit us with a sledgehammer!"
"Or maybe that means he really likes us? I mean if he hits us with a sledgehammer… Only nice stuff can be hit by a sledgehammer…" Keselyx replied. She and Xiana nodded together. "Yeah… So anyway, he doesn't like us!"
"Well, I still don't think that's true!" Xiana protested. "Because if he really didn't like us he'd keep telling us that he was sick or had homework or was busy with family things and couldn't come. But that would be totally ludicrous because we're his family, and if he's busy with family things and can't see us it means he can't see us 'cause he's seeing us. And yeah. What other family would he see anyway? It's not like he'd see our parents! I mean they're always calling him 24/7! Good thing he thought of buying a new cell phone and giving the old one to a crocodile.-"
"- That crocodile had such a beautiful voice too…" Keselyx mumbled to herself. She had a fascination with singing/talking crocodiles.
"- Yes he did! Anyway! He has no other family to go to so therefore he does like us! And um… Homework, sick, I don't want to talk about those…" Xiana looked at the ground, thinking of her dear Xian that was constantly swamped by homework and disease, and when he wasn't lucky, diseased homework!
"I know… I feel your pain…" Keselyx patted her sister on the shoulder. "So I'll go call him!" Keselyx ran to get the phone. She had trouble because the phone was hidden in a castle in the far away land in The World That Never Was. There it was protected by these wimpy "Organization 13" peoples. They were kinda cool… But WIMPY! (at least they were wimpy on the 14th month after the blue moon of January.) Which was indeed this day that in The Town Where The Lyszerxon's Lived that was below 0 degrees Fahrenheit something was cooking.
As soon as Keselyx left, there was a knock on the door. It went, "icka, icka, potang, ZOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, WA!" It was not a particularly unique door knock, not in the least.
Xalex walked slowly to the door. He twisted the handle and opened it. "HEY BUDDY!!!!" The voice on the other side of the door rang. "How are you?!!!!" It was Xarndew.
"I'm good. How was your trip?"
"Not bad… 17 feet away isn't so far…" Xarndew's college was right next-door.
Xalex cringed at the thought of such a distance covered in so little time, and just by walking too! "I'm glad you made it." Xalex and Xarndew shook hands, they were not very into hugging, no one in the family really was. Well accept for Xanida and Xalex, but we won't go more in to that.
"What's up…?" Xiana popped up.
"The CEILING!!!!" Xalex shouted out, regardless to the fact that Xi had been talking to Xarndew.
"… Not much," Xarndew paused to stare at his sister, who had answered the question directed at him.
"That's cool…" Xi nodded.
Xarndew looked around seeing the whole family here EXCEPT, "Hey where's Kesyl?" The closest member of the family to him was missing. How could this be!
"Oh… About that…" Xiana began. "She died."
"WHAT!!!!" Xarndew went in a state of shock and walked slowly into the western most corner of the family room. This was his emo-corner. "She's dead…"
Xiana laughed, knowing well that Xarndew was acting, I mean who could possibly be THAT gullible?! Oh wait… Keselyx. "She went to call you."
"Oh ok!" Xarndew went with the rest of the family into the kitchen. Xanida and Xalex began cooking again. Xiana and Xarndew (Keselyx's replacement) sat and watched.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Meanwhile in The World That Never Was…
"Die! Die DIE!!!!!" Keselyx button mashed as she won the SSBM game. "What now, Axely! WHAT NOW!!!!!! I totally pwned you!!!"
"What are you saying…?" Zexion asked her as Demyx cuddled close to him.
"Poor Sexy Zexy! He doesn't understand gamer talk…" Demyx sighed, squeezing Zexion tighter.
"Don't say pwned ever again, ok?!" Axel turned to Keselyx.
"If you can't take the heat, get out of the oven, sista!" Keselyx shot back.
"You don't know how much heat I can handle!" His eyes were on fire. He had chosen to ignore the "sista" comment.
"Bring it on…" Keselyx glared back, no fiery eyes of prettiness and wonder could scare her away. Actually… Her pyro-obsession made her stare more than normal.
"Ding, dong! Ding, dong! Oh answer the door! Look it's already brung sista! Another game now!!!!"
The new game started. Axel and Keselyx were obsessed with playing as Roy. I mean come on! He's FIERY!!!!! Keselyx kicked his butt over and over…
"Pwned again…" Keselyx sighed before laughing. "You know you need to step up. I'm getting tired of kicking your butt!"
"Oh you wanna fight!"
"No shit!" she replied, unsheathing a sword that no one, not even her, had quite noticed was on her side.
"Um… Well fine!" Axel looked around for help, he didn't expect her to say yes. "Then… Fight him!" He pointed randomly, and ending up pointing at Zexion.
"Oh crap…" Zexion got up ready to run.
Roxas, who chose to be silent sense Keselyx's arrival, decided to speak. He chose to mention the question everyone was wondering. "Keselyx… Why are you even here…?"
"Oh…" Keselyx didn't even know. "Oh wait! Yeah! I have to call my brother and make sure he knows where Xalex lives."
"Xalex!" Xaldin jumped up and down. It was one of his fellow hobo-nerds.
"…" Keselyx watched in confusion. "Anyway… I need to get the phone!"
"Why didn't you just use your shiney cell phone?" Roxas asked.
"Um… Good question…" Keselyx grabbed her pocket where her cell phone normally would be by reflex, but it wasn't there. "…"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Somewhere in the Himalayas evilly laughter rang out.
"La Ish see ka zu wa?" (Himalayan-ese for "Why the hell are you laughing Billy?")
"Re Cu Zu Lu Lu ka dee w…" ("I stole some chick's cell phone.")
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"GAH!!!!! Where's my cell phone!" Keselyx ran around in circles. Demyx began to calm her, everyone knew only crazy people can help other crazy people, or at least understand them.
"She didn't even think of using her cell phone…?" Roxas turned to Axel in disbelief.
"Wanna go somewhere else… You know? With everyone distracted." Axel offered.
"Heck yeah!" And so the two almost made it out the door until.
"Why do you have to call Xarndew to make sure he doesn't get lost?" Xaldin asked. "I thought he didn't like his family."
"Hell yeah!" Keselyx stopped running immediately. "That's what I was saying. But no… Apparently he does like us. Or he likes holiday dinners… Or he likes other people making holiday dinners. Or he likes holidays with the family. Or he likes holidays. Or he likes presents. Or he likes holiday presents. Or-"
"Holiday di…nn…ers…" Roxas twitched, the kid loved his holiday dinners, even though they were no holidays in The World That Never Was. Not even birthdays. How could a nobody have a birthday? Oh happy birthday nobody! It makes no sense. How can you wish no one a Happy Birthday?! The only holidays that existed were the random days Demyx and Xemnas came up with. The deal was Demyx would come up with the holiday and Xemnas would name it. This worked pretty well until the riots…
"Yes, that's what I said." Keselyx nodded. "You like holiday dinners?"
"Who doesn't!" Axel nodded. "Holidays like Thanksgiving… in a car…" He winked at Roxas.
"Hmm… Ok! To Xalex and Xanida's house!!!!" Keselyx led the coterie there, all except Xaldin who had been banished from the plenary feast. Or rather he had been jettisoned out of the window after cheering over the mention of Xalex's name.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The cooking was nearly done. Xiana and Xarndew were getting tired of staring at the oven. Ovens really aren't that exciting. Then all of the sudden the door burst open. "KESELYX IS BACK!!!!!" Keselyx screamed and grabbed the pumpkin pie, she had earned it after all. Behind her was a group of emo looking people. The all wore mysterious glasses, that without the trick to the eye the happy folk were blind. No one in Xanida's house was a happy folk though, so they could see the emo people. And so the (old) men gathered.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
