Do You Even See Me?
By Riku Child of Dawn
All right this is a story about Vexen and the graceful assassin. This is my first fanfic about them so please be gentle.
One
"Vexen." Marluxia said coming into the lab where the blonde sat fiddling with beakers. No answer. "Vexen?" no answer. "Dammit Vexen look at me!" the man said angrily. The blonde looked up annoyance clearly written on his face.
"What!" he snapped. Marluxia gritted his teeth. "Xemnas said that the meeting is in fifteen minutes."
"Fine." He said turning back to his work. The pinkett sighed. He swung around and stormed through the hall angry. He went into the gray room and glared.
"Hey Marluxia what are you angry about?" Luxord said coming over his always present deck of cards in his hand.
"Vexen!" he snapped glaring. "He doesn't even notice I'm there!" he ground his teeth. "That's all he cares about is his stupid research. It's like I'm invisible!" Luxord pressed a hand on his shoulder.
"Mar look Vexen is well he's very dedicated to his research." The gambler of fate said sitting down beside his friend.
"Besides we are trying to do something important." Zexion pointed out. Marluxia glared.
"Yeah right. All you need to do is keep watching the progress on Kingdom Hearts." Zexion withdrew sighing and leaned back into Lexy.
"Look why don't you just get him away for a bit?" Marley stood and nodded. "Come on the meeting."
The thirteen members slipped into the meeting hall each taking their places. Marluxia hit his button and the chair soared up and glared at number four. Half buried in his paperwork Vexen didn't notice and Marluxia bit his lip. He sighed pulling a rose from his ear and twirled it listening to Xemnas talked mostly about Kingdom Hearts. He had gotten used to the superior's talks and was half listening as he twirled the rose.
Across the room Vexen was half listening as his eyes moved left to right taking in the information. He felt eyes on him he knew who it was number eleven trying to talk to him. He didn't know why the man tried so hard. Everyone had excepted that Vexen was to wrapped up in his research and to leave him alone until he came out of the lab, but the graceful assassin just wouldn't stop trying to get his attention. He sighed and glanced at the papers again taking it in.
Marluxia leaned back his attempts at trying to talk to the chilly academic pushed aside as he glanced at Luxord. He was playing solitar and looked up grinning. Mar smiled back and watched as Luxord played. The cards were hovering in the air and it seemed that the gambler of fate was winning like always Marluxia thought.
After the meeting Saix began giving missions to everyone. Marluxia was paired up with Axel and he nodded. "All right you two will be going to Agrabah." Axel sighed.
"Again. Don't you think that we've done enough over there or are you trying to bake us." Saix narrowed his eyes.
"Just do your job Lea." He said then turned away.
"Yeah yeah yeah." Axel muttered creating a portal for them.
When Marluxia slipped from the portal into the desert he felt the heat. Axel appeared beside him. "Let's just get this done." He muttered and they started walking. Not long after a swarm of heartless surrounded them. Marluxia pulled out his scythe called Graceful Dahlia and slashed at them while Axel's hands heated as fire flew from his fingers. He flourished the blade and Axel rolled his eyes, but didn't stop him. Then Marluxia spun around slashing while Axel blasted fire until they were gone. They kept walking fighting more heartless. They came to the main target and they started fighting Marluxia throwing petals at the enemy while slashing it. Beams exploded from the petals and hit the target. He slammed his scythe into the ground and smirked as a shockwave hit the target. Axel dodged it and destroyed it with a burst of flames. "Hey you need to watch it next time!" Axel snapped as the flames disappeared.
"Oh so sorry." Mar said smirking. Axel glared. "Just because you're the Graceful Assassin doesn't mean your better than any of us."
"Of course not." Marluxia said and walked past the red head, but a smirk was plastered to his pink lips.
So I'm sorry if I made Marluxia ooc I didn't mean to do that, but I wanted him to be a little more well not as evil as he is so that is why. Please review if you liked this and I will try to update as soon as I can.
