Hello readers! Sorry if the uploading takes to long. My mom is mad at me so I'm not going to be spending too much time on my rear end...which means I won't be on the computer a lot except at school...which isn't a lot either. Life is so sad some times :(. Oh well. Anyways.
Evid and her friends are introduced the wonderful Organization XIII. Well, the males anyways. They already know Larxene. I'm going to be describing their (the girls') costumes in this one. I mean, after all, Axel and the boys are going to get an eyeful of beautiful females. Also the first seven Organization peoples to show up will get their own small paragraphs of information (same with Axel and the others when they finally show up), so bear with me please. Also, this chapter will be the reaction of Evid, Wes, and Donia to Axel, Zexion, and Demyx. Heck, if it were me, I'd probably pass out cold on the spot.
I started this story twice. Couldn't decide how I wanted it. But I finally broke past my writers block!
On a side-note: I noticed I spelled Lexaeus wrong the fist time, and some other things but I can't remember what. So, I'm going to fix it :). Yay.
Evid surveyed the party as she stood at the counter munching on chips. The group of black clad males had been a big hit on her friends...and herself. Despite their weirdness. Their entrance had been quite comical, what with Luxord being attacked by Kairi and the introductions being a bit off. First impressions always had an impact. Luxord had come in first, followed by seven others. They'd gathered in the large living room in full view of the girls (obviously at Kairi's request. She was playing her stupid match-making games again).
Luxord was rather attractive, but Evid didn't feel the pull. He had blonde hair cropped close to his head, and some facial hair; just enough to look sexy but not enough to be annoying. He double piercings in one upper ear, and both lobes pierced. On anyone else they would have looked totally wrong, but Luxord pulled it off with shining colors. He was some-what tall; Evid came to his chest. Like all the others his cloak was long and black, his hands were gloved, and he shuffled a deck of cards in hands.
After him came Xemnas, who was also very attractive, but not enough to make her heart squeeze. He had very tan skin where the others were pale, gold eyes, and long white hair. He was as tall as Luxord, with just the same amount of muscle: enough to make her want him to hug her without crushing her. He had no piercings. It would have looked very weird. In his hands he held the handles of what looked light-sabers; Evid had a sudden impression of Darth Vader.
Next was Xaldin. His black hair was styled in dred-locks and sideburns. His eyes were black...like her. That was a little awkward. He stood taller than Luxord and Xemnas, which means he towered over her. He was beefy looking; Evid was reminded of a bear. She fought back a smile. He held a lance in one hand but something told her that he had more hiding somewhere. Freaky.
Then it was a guy with long dirty blonde hair and green eyes. He stood aloof, like he thought he was superior to those in the room. Gag her with a spoon. He was skinny. Evid wasn't sure if he had muscle anywhere, but he must have because the shield he was carrying looked very heavy. Her general impression of him was a weasel.
Behind Vexen, the weasel, came Lexaeus. He was similar to Xaldin in height and muscular-ness, but his hair was short, spiky and brown and his eyes were brown. He also stood less domineering; he exuded patience and calm. How nice. But his weapon was huge and tomahawk-ish. What was with these weapons anyways? Were they dressed as assassins or something?
Following Lexaeus was a silver haired man with gold eyes, an x shaped cut on his face, and pointed ears. Saix...a sexy name. He had a look on his face that said he didn't really want to be here, and was tolerating it. He stood at level with Luxord, Vexen, and Xemnas. For some reason he reminded Evid of an Elf or a Vampire...make it Vampire. He carried what Kairi later told them was a claymore. Saix was pretty hot, but no her style.
Last of all was a guy with pink hair and a pretty face. Poor guy must get so much crap, Evid had thought, fighting back another smile. His name was Marluxia, and was equal in height to the others but Xaldin and Lexaeus. He carried a scythe with him...a very large scythe. With the black cloak he could have been the Grim Reaper...except he had pink hair and his scythe was pink...very, very awkward. Another no.
"Hey Evid," Wes had whispered. "Is it just me, or does the guy with black hair look like he wants to kill us all?"
Evid chuckled to herself. Then came the explaining of the phone call from Xigbar, which the seven had overheard them talking about while they stood patiently waiting in the doorway to be noticed. Their reactions had been quit memorable:
"Am I correct in guessing that the Nut-Case Brigade have run into some trouble?" Vexen the weasel asked.
"Xigbar shot a tire with his Arrowgun because some kids got the jump on him," Riku snickered. Xemnas rolled his eyes, Xaldin sighed, Vexen did both ('how lowly of them' was his expression), Lexaeus shook his head, Saix tilted his head back and put his fingers to his temples, Luxord face-palmed, and Marluxia tried unsuccessfully to hide his smile. After all, the had called him first.
Now they were scattered around the room, bizzare weapons in another room, getting along with everyone. Xemnas and Xaldin stood with Marly and Charla, talking and laughing. Xaldin wasn't much less intimidating, but they were more comfortable around him now that they knew he didn't want to kill them ("He always looks like that," Kairi explained). Marluxia was attempting to flirt with Donia and Wes at the same time Vexen was trying to explain some super science to them. It was hysterical to watch as Marluxia and Vexen kept arguing with each other after a while, and both girls were not paying attention at all. They, along with Saix, Laxeaus, Aislenn and Seifer were watching Coral and Luxord play the most epic poker game she'd ever seen. Everyone else was paired up...except for Donald and Goofy who were at the moment invading the food table.
Despite the fact that Adam Lambert was blaring in the room loud enough to knock out the window, Evid heard the doorbell ring. Putting down her cup and plate she made her way to the door and opened it...to the pair of greenest eyes she'd ever seen, below which were upside down tear shaped tattoos. Surrounding the best looking face she'd ever had the honor of looking at was long, wild, spiky red hair. He was tall, about the same height of Luxord, and was lean looking. Just the way she liked them. He was dressed similar to the others in a black cloak with was opened at the bottom to reveal black pants and sexy black boots. In his hands he held two red and silver Chakrams. Her assessment: OH MY GOD!! He was the yummiest thing she'd ever seen. Adonis didn't hold a candle to this guy!
Axel had been expecting Kairi or Namine to answer the door, not the wonderful extravagant beauty before him now. Unlike him she was decked out in a legit costume; a short, black and purple velvet dress was exposed through a little hooded shoulder cape of the same coloring. The bodice was covered in black lace in a braided, renaissance pattern. Her skirt was decorated with raven feathers, and black lace petticoats tempted the looker. Her shoulder cape was tied loosely with a black silk tie. Around her neck was a short necklace that had a small spattering of black raven feathers with a silver beak in the form of a raven's head clutching at silver chains connected to an amethyst, all of which were held together with a silk "chain" instead of a regular metal one. Dangling from her ears were more raven feathers. It all went very well with her pale skin and black hair. Her black eyes were wide with what he hoped was awe at his manly good looks and not horror.
He cracked a grin. "Hey, we're the late ones."
Evid almost fainted at the sound of his voice. "Oh...yeah..." She gave a small smile. "Kairi was starting to freak out. She just about had a cow." The guy's smile broadened and he laughed. Sheer ecstasy to her ears.
"I think Sora kept her pretty much kept her busy," he said with a wink. Don't fall over, please don't faint!
Evid giggled. "Hey Axel what's the hold up?" A dirty blonde head poked over his shoulder. "Oh. Yeah I can see why you stopped." He smiled. "Hey beautiful. Are we allowed into the party too are is just for good looking people like you?"
Axel rolled his eyes and shoved the other guy off. "Nice pick up line Demyx the Dork," he said. Evid laughed. These guys were even funnier in person. She opened the door wider.
"Come on in you guys. Everyone's been waiting."
"Oh, I certainly hope so," Axel whispered as he passed her. Evid came so close to fainting then and there that she almost missed the other four who passed by. They were all very good looking, but none came close the level of Axel to her eyes. One of them, which was Roxas she was assuming it was the short blonde with blue eyes, was taken. But she knew for a fact that the rest of the girls, excepting Coral who was already hitting on the charming Luxord, would be quite smitten. Now she knew why Kairi had so much fun picking on them.
Wes was doing her absolute hardest to not listen Pretty Face and Weasel, they were nice but she couldn't feel the vibe, but listening to them fight had her on the verge of tears from choking back the laughter. She looked up from Coral's and Luxord's poker game to see Evid walk in followed by a red-head, a dirty blonde, another blonde, a man with gray and white hair...and HOLY COW!!
His slate gray hair was cut short in the back and on one side, leaving his other eye covered with a slab of hair. His only visible eye was a thrilling blue gray. He stood just a few inches shorter than the leading red-head who stood while Evid pointed, apparantely giving names. Unlike the red-head, he didn't have any markings on his face, and had no piercings. He too wore a black cloak, but in his arms he carried some sort of weapon. He stood with his legs parted enough that the bottom of his cloak opened to reveal black boots and pants similar to those of everyone else. Oh wow, she sighed to herself. He turned to look, and his eyes met hers, causing her heart to rocket against her chest and her face to heat up.
Zexion was lucky he didn't fall on his face when he saw her sitting between Marluxia and Vexen. She'd noticed them coming in, seemed a little aggravated yet amused with the arguing boys on either side of her. She was a pretty little thing. He judged from her sitting height that if she stood she would just barely reach his chest. He watched as a blush turned her cheeks rosy when he made eye contact. Her costume, on anyone else, would have looked terrible, but she actually pulled it off. She was dressed as a gypsy maiden; the dress was short, it reached about mid-thigh, and was decorated with white off the shoulder sleeves, and an emerald green bodice laced with gold ties and splashed with gold moons and stars. A gold sash wrapped around her waist. White petticoats peeked out from underneath an emerald green skirt, and she wore simple brown sandals that tied around her ankles. It all went very well with her shiny green eyes and copperish brown hair that was pulled up away from her face and held in place at the back with an assortment of white lilies and gold dyed leaves.
She smiled timidly at him, and he grinned back. Oh yes. He was very attracted to her.
Donia felt sort of forced to give the new comers a second look. They were as strange looking as the others. One of them carried a sitar for crying out loud. What the heck was up with that? She eyed him as he bent to whisper in the shorter blonde's ear, hand resting on the bridge of his blue sitar. His hair was dirty blonde, and from the flashing glimpse she'd seen of his eyes they were a shade of aqua green. His hair was styled into a faux-hawk, with loose strands hanging down the sides of his face and over his forehead. It was punkish look that made him somehow appealing. How strange, Donia thought. She attempted to divert her attention back to the game...but found she couldn't help but continue to look at this phenominal creature known as a "male".
Demyx didn't know what she thought of him but he liked her on the spot. Her was black like Evid's, only less ravenish...if that made sense. Her eyes were a pale, icy blue. Her expression was quizzical as she studied him. It was a peculiar face. She too wore a stunning costume, like all of the girls in the room. Her dress was short, like Evid's it reached mid-thigh, and was kimino style. Its color was the color of her eyes, painted with silver dragons. On her feet were silk slippers, also in pale blue. Rather than an obi tied around her waist it was a silver sash. Silver ribbons wrapped around her bare arms, tied at her wrists. Dangling from her ears were crystals that seemed as if she had plucked them from a fancy chandlier. A similar crystal hung around her neck on a silver chain. He watched as she fought to look away, only to keep looking back at him.
Bending down he whispered to Roxas, "I think she likes me." Roxas rolled his eyes and punched his arm.
Luxord invited Axel and the others to play after they were introduced, but they wisely declined, instead choosing to sit with Donia and Wes to relax for a bit. Marluxia and Vexen had been forced to go away by a very vexed Saix and Seifer. Kairi took sat with them, Sora beside her and Namine takinga seat next to Roxas. She waved over Evid. The girl hesitated than obliged her friend. She sat next to Wes, who looked like she need the moral support. Donia looked like she didn't know whether to get up and leave or stay.
"It's about time you slow pokes showed up," Kairi teased. "I thought for sure you weren't coming."
Axel, Zexion, Roxas, and Demyx shot Xigbar evil stares. "So did we for a while," Demyx responded. "After he hung up with you, he went over to Zexion and Axel and started telling them how to do it, or suggesting we call for a ride and just leave the car there."
"Don't forget we almost had to deal with the police," Axel commented, putting his head on his hands. The girls looked at them with wide eyes.
"Why?" Wes asked. Donia's expression intensified.
"Well, some kids kept asking if we had any candy, over and over again no matter how many times we told them we didn't have any," Roxas explained. He hesitated, then said, "Xigbar threated to shoot them if they didn't go away. He actually pointed his guns at them."
"Apparantely they lived in front of the house we were in front of. They went screaming to mommy, who came out ready to make heads roll." Zexion glared at Xigbar. "That guy drives me up the wall."
"Why does it feel like people are trying to kill me with their eyeballs?" Xigbar said, walking over.
"Maybe because we are," Demyx answered bluntly. He poked Xigbar in the ribs. "You might want to leave. While my temper isn't as foul, these three are still plotting ways to murder you before you go to bed tonight."
Xigbar walked up behind Donia and Wes and slung arms over their shoulders. "Guess I'll need protection," he flirted. "I'm sure these ladies wouldn't let you wild monkeys hurt me."
"Don't hold your breath," Donia responded. She poked his cheek. "Now get away from me." Xigbar clutched his heart and staggered back.
"Ah, so cold. I felt that here." Wes laughed. He turned to her with and clasped her hands in his. "What about you beautiful? Would you let these awful, terrible gorillas kill me?"
Wes blushed. She looked to Evid, having no idea what to say. Evid grinned and shrugged. "Oh no, aboslutely not," Wes responded. Xigbar wrapped her into a smothering hug.
"See, somebody here loves me." The boys rolled their eyes, but grins started to spread on their faces.
"That's great," Zexion said. "Now you might want to let her go before you suffocate her." Xigbar released Wes. The girl's face was bright red.
Xigbar ruffled her hair and lauhged. "I'm going to have fun with you," he said. And then walked away.
"Is he always this strange?" Wes asked. The boys laughed.
"You have no idea," Zexion said. At that moment Luxord walked over with Coral in tow, the latter wearing a smug look.
"Where ever did you find this girl?" Luxord asked Kairi. "She is absolutely brilliant."
"She beat you didn't she?" Evid reached over and the two girls shared a high five.
"But, I must be honest," Coral said. She linked arms with Luxord, who looked away to hide the fact that he was utterly delighted. "He almost had me. I won, but only just barely." The red-head sat down on the floor in front of the couch. Luxord was pulled down with her. "We've made plans for a rematch. You guys should come, and this time attempt to play."
"Do I look crazy?" Donia asked, crossing her legs.
"As long as we're not betting," Wes said. "I am not losing practically all of my money like last time." She blushed. "Or my...favorite...never mind."
"What?" Demyx pressed. "You're favorite what?"
Coral chuckled. "I took her favorite piece of lingeiri." Wes glared at her and threw one of the couch pillows at her. The boys looked at each other with amused glances. Zexion stared at Wes, somehow feeling a bit confused. Coral started to laugh uncontolabely. "Acutally, I should say her only piece of lingeiri. Donia bought it for her for Christmas a few years ago as a joke." By this point she was in hysterics. "You should have seen the look on her face!"
Now Donia, Evid, Namine, and Kairi were starting to fall over laughing. Wes turned scarlet again and looked down. "It's not funny you guys. You know how much that kind of stuff embarrasses me."
"Obviously not too much anymore," Kairi chortled. "You kept it after all."
"Only because it was a present!" Wes protested. She was getting redder by the second. "I actually tried to throw it away a couple of times...but...but...I couldn't do it!" Sighing she buried her face in her hands.
Axel nudged Demyx. "We're going to have to convince this Coral to give Wes her lingeiri back," he whispered quietly, discreetly pointing at Zexion. Demyx snickered. Roxas and Luxord looked at them. They knew a plan forming when the saw it. They had to get in on it.
"Come on, let's dance!" Kairi said, bouncing up. "We should all do Thriller. A huge, fat, group Thriller."
"Anything to stop this," Wes said, getting up. "I'll go tell the others." Moving quicker than they'd ever seen a person move, she was gone and informing the others of Kairi's idea. Zexion watched her. How odd. Someone who couldn't bear to think of a piece of sexy underwear. All the girls who have ever tried to be his girlfriend had pulled the look-how-hot-I-am-in-practically-nothing-so-date-me stunt. Not once did it work. That kind of come on turned him off faster than someone hitting a lightswitch.
The Thriller dance pumped up the party. Surprisingly everyone knew it, and they all danced it very well. Afterwards they held a Karaoke contest (Evid won solo, and won duet with Coral), a Guitar Hero band contest (Cloud, Leon, Seifer, and Demyx got 100% on all the songs they did), a Dance Dance Revolution contest (shocking enough Sora and Riku came out on top with Donald and Goofy behind them), a Twister contest (the trophy went to Wes, second place to Zexion), an eating contest (Xaldin ate like a bear), a video game contest (Axel and Roxas killed everone on Halo, Namine and Kairi kicked butt on DOA, and Xigbar and Xemnas took everyone out on Soul Caliber), and a staring contest. Nobody won that one. Every time they looked at each other they cracked up, hyped as they were on energy and sugar.
By the time the contests were over and everyone was winding down it was late...or early depending on how they looked at it. Wes was half asleep on the couch curled against Zexion, who had pulled out a book. He'd given her his cloak as a blanket, revealing the white shirt they all wore underneath their coats. Coral and Luxord were playing a game of War, Coral not having much luck with focus as she too was getting sleepy. Donia and Demyx were buys arm wrestling, neither one feeling the least bit exhausted. Roxas and Sora were also going strong while their girlfriends sat at the kitchen table, eating and talking quietly with Evid, Aisleen, and Seifer. Xemnas and Xigbar were teaching Marly and Charla the ropes on Soul Caliber, and Xaldin and Lexaues were playing Monopoly with Vexen, Marluxia, and Larxene. Cloud, Leon, Tifa, Donald, and Goofy where in the other room with the Xbox having rematches of Guitar Hero and DDR. Everyone else had called it a night hours ago and gone home.
At the end, Kairi had somehow managed to pass out everyone's cellphone numbers, so now Evid and her friends had Axel's, Demyx's, Zexion's, Roxas', Luxord's, and the rest of the black clad weirdos numbers in their phones.
When she got home, Evid stared at her address book, Axel's number right beneath Aislenn's, not knowing whether to be pleased or freaked out. Beside her sat Wes, who was spending the night at her place, staring at the ceiling, not even fully awake.
"What are we going to do?" Evid asked Wes, not even expecting an answer.
"The only thing we can do; go with the flow. Give this insane plan a chance." Evid stared at Wes. All right, Evid thought.
Sorry that this chapter was so long; if it bored you with its longness I apologize. I didn't really intend to make it as long as it was. I'll try to make the next chapter shorter. Anyway, the next chapter will be a little advanced in time. Axel and the guys have been busy making friends with Evid and her pals, with the guidence of Kairi and Namine in the back.
Chapter Three will be mostly about Evid and Axel. The following chapters will be about Coral, Aislenn, Donia, and Wes getting along with Luxord, Seifer, Demyx and Zexion. Coral, Luxord and the others will show up in the chapter as well. If it will be to long than they won't.
Hope you enjoyed this long, long, long chapter :). See you next time. Hopefully.
