WARNING: Don't forget you'll have to know what's going on in Organization XIII, and it is better if you know something about 'Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 days' too.
Prologue: New Member
"Cheater!" A man with dark blond hair yelled at his friend at the other side of the table.
His friend only laughed, while running his hand through his short, light blond hair. "No, you just lost"
The dark blond male frowned and looked back to his cards. "Are you kidding?"
"Not at all", the calm response came.
They sat in silence, the dark blond male with a horrible pokerface, the male with the fair chuckled.
"Work on your pokerface… loser"
The dark blond male looked up, angry now. "There's no way I lost! So you cheated!"
Another laugh came from the end of the table. "Sheesh, Demyx, never knew you were such a loser"
The dark blond male, Demyx, flushed red with anger and threw his cards in the face of his friend. "Who's the poor loser now?" He smiled evilly.
The green eyes of his friend flickered angry. "You're dead, pal"
With those words he threw himself on Demyx.
Both males had no idea of the public across the room.
Two boys were watching; one with sun blond, slightly spiky hair and light blue eyes and a bored expression, the other with chocolate brown, real spiky hair and dark blue eyes.
The blond boy sighed: "Numbers nine and ten. Demyx and Luxord"
The brown-haired boy chuckled at the bored expression of his friend . "Are they always like this"
His friend nodded. "Except for the times when Demyx slacks off… again, and Luxord is away" He added unwilling.
They looked at each other and burst into laughter before walking to the other room.
A woman with short blond hair and with two strands spiking upwards sat in a chair.
"Say, does she imitate a bee or some other insect?" The brown-haired boy whispered curiously.
The blond boy chuckled. "Don't say that to her, or you're dead, I swear"
He cleared his throat. "Number twelve, Larxene"
Larxene turned and watched the boys come closer.
"What do you want? Kill my brain cells or what?" She said unfriendly.
The blond boy was immediately annoyed. He snorted before answering. "You think I'm here with you at free will? You should have known better, Larxy"
The turquoise eyes of the woman flickered. "Leave or I'll kick you out"
The brown-haired boy chuckled nervously, receiving an angry glare from Larxene.
"So this is Sora? The new one?" She asked, not sounding interested at all.
The blond boy nodded once. 'Yup. Number fifteen, Sora"
Sora extended his hand out to Larxene, but quickly pulled away when she started to stare at it.
"Hmmpf… well… good luck" She said while turning her back at them.
Sora blinked at her unfriendliness, but the blond boy grabbed him at his collar and dragged him outside.
"Don't try to be nice or friendly to Larxene… you will only piss her off more" he advised the stunned looking Sora.
They were in the garden, where someone was humming happily.
The blond boy suddendly grinned widely. "Well, well… it looks like I found some blackmail stuff…"
Sora frowned, while pointing to some pink wave above some bush. "Hey, is that a pink bush? Or is it a flower on that one underneath it?" He asked confused.
The blond one burst into laughter. "Time for a haircut, Marly! The new member thinks you're a bush!"
The humming stopped immediately and the 'pink' bush appeared to be the hair of a man with angry green eyes. Sora's cheeks warmed up with embarrassment and he looked down. The blond boy gave another chuckle. "Number eleven, Marluxia"
Marluxia growled and went back to the plant he was working with.
The blond boy dragged Sora along through the gate and they came out on a street.
"Well, I'm number thirteen. But of course, I prefer Roxas" The blond boy said to Sora.
Sora flashed him a smile. "Nice to meet you, Roxas. You're introducing people perfectly on numbers, do you?"
Roxas rolled with his eyes. "Apparently"
They laughed again.
"Anyway, number fourteen is…" Roxas began hesitantly. "Well… is here longer than you… and maybe… stronger than anybody else here" He looked away, frowning at something. "And she's Axel's sister" He added.
Sora grimaced. "Great. Another smartass to deal with"
Roxas grinned again. "She's smart, but not… in an Axel way"
He received a chuckle from his new friend. "We're blessed with that, in that case"
They arrived on the beach a few minutes later. Roxas suddendly looked in every direction, as if he was looking for danger. His expression was wary while he said: "Okay… let's hope I survive this time…"
Sora raised his brow. "What do you mean?"
Roxas looked at him. "Well… let's say she's always trying to-"
Suddendly a wave crashed higher than the shore and washed over Roxas, but didn't touch Sora, while he was standing a few inches away.
"What the hell?" Sora staggered back and tried to look for any danger around them.
And just as suddendly as the wave came, he left, revealing an angry looking Roxas who was soaked to the bone.
He spluttered a curse. "Kairi!" He suddendly shouted. "Get here so I can kick your ass in a fair way!"
"Nah, don't feel like it" A melodious voice said from above them.
Roxas and Sora looked up to the tree above them.
A girl with long, red hair sat in the tree, looking down at them with curious violet eyes. Roxas' anger disappeared the very second she answered him. Roxas smiled. 'Number fourteen. Kairi"
Back in the Castle That Never Was, Roxas sighed. "Well, that were all the members"
Sora grinned at him. "So what are we going to do now?"
Roxas sighed again. "Write in our diary"
He looked up when Sora chuckled. "What?"
Sora raised his brow, still laughing. "Come on, you've gotta be kidding me!"
Roxas stopped and stared at him. "Why would I be kidding about that?"
Sora groaned. "Oh no… we have to keep a diary?"
It was Roxas' turn to laugh now. "Yup. Better work on your imagination before writing, pal!"
Chapter 1: Organization XIII
I joined Organization XIII today. I don't know why they still call it 'thirteen' when there are fifteen members in it, me being the fifteenth member of them.
Saïx, some guy with blue hair, who seems to be the 'second-hand' of the 'boss', however he's not number two, but number seven, hands out… missions.
Roxas, number thirteen, who showed me around and introduced everybody to me and said those missions are mostly collecting hearts, doing reconnaissance in area's and sometimes doing something special for the organization.
I can't help but feel uneasy about that. I can't do something special, so my days will be boring.
Axel, number eight, is Roxas' best friend and is the only one here with a sister, Kairi.
Kairi is number fourteen, and Roxas said she was maybe stronger than anybody else in this organization.
But I still don't get it, because she didn't look as strong as, for example, Lexaeus, number five. Man, he got himself some muscles! But maybe there is a hidden meaning in Roxas' words, who knows.
Well, I'm going to find out some mysteries of this organization…. I hope.
In any case, I need training, Xemnas, number one… so the 'boss' said. It will start tomorrow.
I'm kind of curious about that… but I'll find out tomorrow.
Err… I hate writing in this diary, because I don't know what to write. Roxas said nobody would check it, so why am I writing? Maybe because Roxas said I would need it to keep my mind clean… so I'll try to do my best at… keeping a diary.
Sora
Year three, day 17: New Kid
My mission for today was leading the new kid around. Axel said Xemnas took the new kid to see what kind of effect Kairi would have on him. Poor boy. If you meet Kairi's powers, you'll never be the same again. So Axel told me not to get involved much with the new kid.
But he was very nice, and I think he's maybe strong enough to survive whatever they want Kairi to do with him.
His name is Sora and I've never seen such spiky hair ever since Axel. His eyes are a bit like Kairi's, but not with the violet haze she has in her eyes.
I could tell Sora was impressed by Kairi… somewhere…
But, hell, everybody was impressed by her! Even I had to swallow and stop myself from drooling over her, so….
Wait, forget the drooling part… I never did that.
Since I'm only rambling today, let's put an end to this day and I'll take a nap.
Roxas
Year one, day 14: Sora
I honestly never understood why they wanted me in the organization. I only accepted because Axel said it would be a good thing. Well, it was, in the end. I mean, look at the control I received by all the practice I could take here!
But, okay, today, there joined another one in our group, Sora.
Oh, I know they want me to break him down, I mean, Xigbar never keeps his mouth shut when I'm around, so it was easy to pick up those weird things.
But I didn't get the… direct orders, so I'm not doing anything.
Back to Sora. He looks like a nice guy, so maybe I can get the chance to talk to him before they hand me the orders to break him.
What good will that do to the world? Breaking that kid down? Roxas should better preparing him to what's coming, or I'll send another wave of wrath over his head.
Which I did today, by the way. I never dreamed it would work, but today was the day it worked. Roxas should've been proud at the fact he's the only one it worked on. Maybe I can work on it tomorrow, to precise it.
Kairi
