A Nobody's Haiku
A Kingdom Hearts Oneshot
Xemnas gets a very strange poem, and it gets him thinking.
Xemnas sat in his office. Bored. So very bored. Nothing to do. Clicking a pen up and down, and he stopped as he realized how horribly cliché that was.
Suddenly, a soft noise pierced the silence. He looked up to see something sliding under his door. Quickly he ran to his door, opening it. The only things he could see were little flecks of darkness as one of the Organization members vanished in a dark portal.
He looked to his feet to see a piece of paper on the floor. He picked it up and read it. He raised a silver eyebrow.
My coronation
A Nobody of the dark
An angel of naught
We do not have hearts
That doesn't mean we can't feel
That's my opinion
Yeesh, Xemnas, what's wrong?
Apparently you can't feel
It sucks to be you
Oh well; your own choice
It's not my choice; it's not theirs
You trapped us in night
Don't try to play dumb
I'm not dumb; I can still feel
Too bad you can't feel
Speaking of the heart
Too bad you can't feel a thing
We could get along
Whispers are around
An assassin might kill you
Not a big surprise
But, yes, I digress
You might not feel any pain
Your Nobodies can
Past sins will haunt you
Depends if you feel regret
That they affect you
Xemnas's eyebrow rose up more as he read it. Each segment was a perfect haiku; he didn't know any of the Organization members was a poet.
And this poem was reprimanding him. Him. The Superior. Telling him to…what? Feel? He huffed. He was a Nobody. He couldn't feel a thing.
But apparently this mystery member was trying to prove him wrong. He looked up, then marched out of the room.
"Okay, which one of you imbeciles wrote this and slid it under my door?" Xemnas asked angrily, holding up the piece of paper.
"Dude, is that a sappy love poem?" Axel laughed. "Aw, Superior has a secret admirer!"
If looks could kill, Axel would be dead.
"If the…the culprit…does not reveal himself, I will remove all writing utensils and paper from the castle," Xemnas said, trying to frighten whenever wrote the poem.
"Oh no, we're so scared," Xigbar said with mock fear.
Xemnas's face flushed with anger and he spun on his heels and strode off.
Everyone just started talking to each other, not caring about anything Xemnas had said.
Axel walked up to Demyx, who was sitting in a chair, tuning his sitar. "I can't believe that," Axel said to him.
Demyx grinned without looking up. "I think he got my point," the Melodious Nocturne said.
Hey, Demyx is my favorite, and I highly doubt he's as stupid as most people portray him to be.
A haiku has five syllables in the first line, seven syllables in the second line, and five again in the third line. Each little section is its own haiku.
I wrote this all in one night, when my idea to write a haiku for each Organization XIII member failed (for now). Each section is a perfect haiku. I triple checked myself.
