Ch. 1 "It Ends Tonight"

X-x-X

"Paybacks a bitch, isn't it." Marluxia laid sprawled on the floor. Vexen threw a wilting rose down at his feet.

"Why…why did you do this?" XI's eyes fluttered closed as the words barely escaped his mouth.

They had had a fight, Vexen and Marluxia. Vexen had caught Marluxia "mocking" him.

He was right, he had gotten the Assassin back; but not the way Marluxia thought he would. As Vexen walked off, Zexion appeared next to his fallen comrade. "Marluxia…What happened?" VI chocked back a gasp as he examined Marluxia's badly injured body. Marluxia told him everything he could;

"You know how we were mocking Vexen? Well he had overheard. He met me at the door to my room and whispered into my ear; "Watch your back Marly. You don't want a fatal accident, now would you?" Then he walked off. I was expecting blackmail, but instead he had ambushed me while I was watering the plants in my room" XI sat up and gripped his stomach were a giant slash was.

"He give you that?" Zexion asked.

The Assassin nodded, "Along with all these other wounds."

Marluxia only had on a black long-sleeved shirt with the Organization symbol on the back and some tight black leather pants. Of course, after the fight against Vexen, his clothes had cuts and holes in the.

"Zexion, Could you get Axel, please?"

"Yes, sir."

Moments later, Zexion appeared with Axel.

"Thank-you number VI." Marluxia had managed to painfully stand up with the help of his scythe, and was now leaning against the nearest wall.

"You needed me, Marluxia?" Axel crossed his arms.

"Yes. I would like you to keep an eye on Vexen." Axel look puzzled but agreed to it anyway. With a nod, he walked through his freshly created portal.

"Do you need my help, Mar-Mar?" Zexion asked his pink haired friend.

"No. I'm fine. You can go back to your room. Besides, Demyx is probably waiting for you."

Zexion blushed lightly at the comment while Marluxia gave a wave and a small smirk. Number VI quietly out of Marluxia's room. The Assassin laid on his bed with a sigh.

"I've gotta get these wounds healed…" he thought out loud to himself. Marluxia grabbed some fresh, clean, white bandages from off his bedside table and sat up to bandage himself.

Letting out a long yawn, Marluxia decided that it was time to get some sleep. Like usual, he had trouble falling into a peaceful slumber. Thoughts flooded his mind, such as how much he despises Xemnas, or now, his fight with Vexen.

As Marluxia finally drifted off to sleep, a weird dream appeared in his mind. He felt as though it could be real.

A shadowy figure walked down the streets of A World That Never Was. The figure glanced back as he heard footsteps squishing in the rain puddles..

"What do you want?" He had a deep, smooth voice. He looked up as strands of pink hair peeked out from beneath his leathery hood.

"I think you know, Marluxia." The other man's hood was also covering his face. Marluxia advanced towards the man opposite of him.

"Riku?" beneath the hood, Marluxia caught a glimpse of pale skin.

Riku stepped back,

"Marluxia…I'm not…I…" Not being able to find the right words to say, he stopped. Letting out a heavy sigh, XI asked calmly,

"Why'd you hurt Zexion?" He removed his hood, the rain gently drizzling against his face. His glare looked like it could burn a hole right through Riku.

"I didn't mean to…"

Marluxia pinned Riku up against a wall.

"Tell me! Zexion is about to die because of you!"

Anger surged through Marluxia. Zexion was his best friend, his right-hand man in Castle Oblivion. They were like brothers.

X-o-X

"I was dreaming…But which parts were the dream?" Marluxia asked himself as he sat up in his black waterbed.

Someone knocked on his door. Mumbling as he got up, he opened the door. "What do you want, Larxene?"

"Zexion said there's someone approaching the castle. 3 people to be exact."

Sighing, the Assassin slammed the door on Larxene's face and changed into his Organization XIII coat.

I used a Roxas quote :) If you know what it is, then you deserve a…cookie!

Yeah…

Lol, I did spell check on Zexion's name, and it came up with "Sexton" xD
