The main noise in the meeting room was Xemnas' slow boring monotone. You know the sort of thing:
"Blah blah blah Kingdom hearts blah blah blah blah Nothingness is eternal blah blah blah blah blah Power of the Keyblade blah blah blah blah blah blah blah Nobodies rock da house mon blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah total and utter bulls." (Okay, those last two were never said, OK?!)
Demyx had fallen asleep, Axel was trying to flirt with Larxene (and was failing miserably.), Luxord was playing card games with Roxas, Zexion was reading a book, Vexen was thinking about research, Xigbar was wondering whether or not to wake up Demyx (No), Xaldin was bored, as was Lexaeus, and Marluxia was worried about his plants. Saïx was paying attention. Suck up.
"And finally…" Everyone listened then, mainly because they knew what Xemnas was going to say.
"As you know, tomorrow, I shall be leaving for a while, as recommended by my phyciatrist, to stop my ummm… 'Little Problem' from occurring again."
"You mean having a nervous breakdown?" Snapped Larxene, who was bored, and tired of having Axel flirting with her.
"Yes… that's what I mean." Muttered Xemnas. "Anyway, Xigbar will be in charge when I'm away. That is all. You may go."
As they started to portal away, Roxas grabbed Luxord by his collar.
"You cheated you stupid git!" Snarled Roxas. Everyone turned to watch, with varying degrees of interest.
"I played a perfectly fair game."
"Then how come you have your fingers crossed behind your back?"
"Uh… Arthritis."
"You're 29!"
"That's what makes it so tragic."
"Shut up!" Roxas punched Luxord in the face.
"FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT!!" Screamed the Orginization. Demyx pulled out a bag of Toffee Popcorn as Zexion portalled away. Xemnas held his face in his hands.
"Thank god for phyciatrist's."
Vexen, Xaldin and Lexaeus were the only people in the kitchen the next morning. Xemnas had already left for the airport, about 5 hours earlier than he was meant to. There was absolute silence for about ten seconds, excluding normal eating noises. Then…
"JOY TO THE WORLD!! MANSEX IS GONE!!" Axel, Demyx and Roxas burst into the room. Demyx was playing his sitar, Axel and Roxas were singing (Badly).
"Oh, what a beautiful morning! The birds are singing, Mansex is gone, AND WE HAVE CEREAL PEOPLE!!" Everyone stared at Demyx after his unusual announcement.
"I have got to go. I have research to attend to." Said Vexen after an awkward silence.
Axel started sniggering.
"Is there something wrong Axel?" Asked an irate Xaldin.
"Tee-hee. Sorry, I can never get used to seeing your hair in the morning." Sniggered Axel. Roxas grinned, looking none the worse from his tussle with Luxord, apart from a nasty cut on his cheek, covered by a tiger plaster. Xaldin's hair was long and curly. In short, he looked like Rapunzel let loose with black hair dye and curlers. Xaldin snarled.
"I'm going back to bed." He paused as he passed Roxas. "Look who's talking, Tiger boy."
"Roxas, NO!!"
"Let me kill him just a little bit!"
"Shut up, let's have Jam sandwiches" Bargained Axel.
"Yum! Jam!" Roxas said, cheering up, and running over to the breadbin.
The kitchen was peaceful again, with Lexaeus just sitting there, Demyx singing rude versions of nursery rhymes, and Axel and Roxas happily made jam sandwiches (Strawberry jam, Roxas' favourite.)
"DO YOU LIKE JAM?"
"I LIKE JAM!"
"YOU LIKE JAM?"
"YEAH, I LIKE JAM!!"
"ARRRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!"
Roxas and Axel leapt about 10 feet in the air. Marluxia stood in the doorway.
"Hey, Marluxia! What's up?" asked Axel, a nervous grin on his face.
"That is what is up." Proclaimed Marluxia pointing a shaking finger at the sandwiches.
"Oh God."
"Not this again."
"Jam is evil!!" Yelled Marluxia. Demyx rolled his eyes and continued to shovel cereal into his mouth. Lexaeus decided to leave.
"Innocent plants are cut, squashed, have their very essence of life squeezed out of them!!" Roxas started to giggle. Axel, who had more experience of this, covered his face with a tea-towel.
"Oh god, don't giggle."
"WHY ARE YOU LAUGHING?!?!? DO YOU THINK THE PLIGHT OF INOCCENT FRUIT IS A LAUGHING MATTER?!?!" Bellowed Marluxia, spit coming out of his mouth. Roxas completely lost it, nearly falling over laughing.
"RIGHT THEN!! LAUGH THIS OFF!!" Marluxia drew out his scythe.
SLASH!
"Roxas! Are you okay?" Axel asked a look of genuine worry on his face. Roxas looked up, with a massive slash on his face, similar to Squall—Ur, I mean Leons face.
"Great. I'm gonna have to take Roxas to the lab now. See you in a bit."
Axel exited, half supporting, half carrying Roxas. Marluxia binned the remainders of the sandwiches, and grabbed a glass of milk. He sat down next to Demyx, then turned around and smiled.
"So, how are you today Demyx?" Demyx stared at him, and slowly edged away. Then Xigbar waltzed in.
"Hey, I saw Roxas, what happened?" inquired Xigbar. Marluxia growled.
"Never mention that plant haters name in front of me again."
"Marluxia, you have got to stop slashing people when they have jam sandwiches. Its not nice, and I'm sure it's illegal."
Demyx gulped down the rest of his cereal, as Zexion poked his head in the doorway.
"Are you guys talking about me?"
"No."
"Good." Zexion left as quickly as he appeared. Then Larxene walked in, her arms crossed.
"Demyx, I need you to snog me."
"Oka—Wait." Demyx ran that sentence through his head a few times. "Wait. WHAT!!! HOLY S!!"
Xigbar and Marluxia glanced at each other, eyebrows raised. Larxene growled.
"If Axel thinks I have a boyfriend, he'll stop stalking me!"
"No, he won't."
"Shut up idiot."
"You don't even like me!"
"DO I CARE!?"
"….Yes?"
"Beep. Wrong answer."
"I'm not doing it!"
"Okay. If you don't do what I say, I shall rip your guts out and make shoelaces out of them, you gutless swine!"
"How can you use my guts as shoelaces if I don't have any?"
"SHUT UP!!"
Marluxia grinned. Xigbar held his head in his hand. I should really do something about this. After all I'm in char—HOLY CRAP!!
Larxene had grabbed Demyx and was snogging his face off, Axel had just entered and started yelling at Demyx about "Being his friend" and "Betraying his trust" Roxas was watching (With a massive bandage covering his left eye.), and Zexion shoved his head in doorway again and asked who had stolen his Lexicon. Suddenly, flames burst out of the floor and engulfed the kitchen as Axel began to attack Demyx. Vexen yelled from the lab:
"A chicken I force-fed 5kg of dynamite has escaped from the lab." Then a chicken appeared in the kitchen, and started pecking Xigbar's leg.
No wonder Xemnas had a nervous breakdown…
