Chapter 2: Nixod and Larxene
-Nixod-
From the moment I saw that bitch I knew I wouldn't like her. Her bright yellow hair, her wanna-be fairy hairstyle, her thunder kunai, pretty much everything in general about Larxene disgusted me. Her thoughts were even worse. It was clear to me from day one that she was only there to look out for herself. She was selfish, and if killing all of us would help her in her goal of attaining a heart, she would do it without a second thought. I could care less what she would do to me, but if she ever laid a finger on Xenen there would be hell to pay. No one would ever hurt my cousin.
On a chilly dull morning Xenen, Axel, Roxas and I proceeded to head back to Twilight Town. We were going to collect data on the heartless. I looked over to Xenen and saw her smiling. She and Roxas were eating Sea Salt Ice Cream. She had really taken a liking to him. Whenever Roxas went somewhere, Xenen was easily welcomed. I wish I had that relationship with someone in the Organization. As nice as Axel was, I didn't feel too welcomed by him, nor was I willing to venture into his mind. I had no desire to find out the thoughts he had about Roxas. Although they denied it, Xenen had first hand information that Axel and Roxas were starting a relationship.
"Nixod, are you ok?" Axel asked. I stared blankly, blinked a couple of times and looked towards the clock tower.
"Well are you?" I nodded my head. Truth be told, I felt alone. Xenen had Roxas now, who did I have?
-Xenen-
Nixod seemed to be so off lately. I tried to reach out to him but he shrugged me off. I stared after him as he and Axel walked ahead of us. Roxas gently placed his hand on my shoulder.
"It'll be ok Xen. They're just the same, you know? Whenever Axel starts thinking he shuts down in the exact same way. Just give him time and he'll come around. Now let's go get those heartless." I smiled and chased after my friend.
We sat atop the clock tower. Nixod sat with a notepad in his hands, back towards the rest of us. Axel stood against the wall monitoring our progress. Roxas and I sat at the defense if the heartless tried to attack us. After a few minutes, one appeared. It was a Big Body. Axel frowned slightly. Big Body heartless' are not indigenous to Twilight Town. Roxas and I looked at each other and then Axel, but he signaled for us to stay put. After a few more minutes someone else surfaced. It was none other than Malificent's lapdog, Pete. He was leading a small army of heartless. We looked to Axel again, but this time he nodded. Roxas and I jumped from our perches atop the clock tower and proceeded to fight the heartless.
Roxas and I laughed as we fought our way closer and closer to Pete. He didn't even seem to notice that we were closing in on him. After we defeated all of the heartless Nixod and Axel joined us.
"Don't take another step big tubby tubby!" Roxas yelled. Pete turned around, realized that all of the heartless were gone and tried to run. Nixod extended his hand and pulled it back sharply. Pete was yanked back towards us.
"I don't believe you were excused. Now dish, why in the hell are you and the heartless here?" Axel asked with a menacing gleam in his eyes. Pete looked back and forth between Axel and Nixod and began to cry.
"Ok ok ok, I'll tell you. Malificent is looking for something; a powerful sorcerer who lacks a heart. She said that the sorcerer was here and that we should use the heartless to capture them."
Nixod looked away at how pitiful Pete had become. Axel turned to Nixod and must have thought something towards him, because after Nixod nodded Axel let Pete go with a warning about getting in our way. Roxas and I laughed as Nixod opened a portal. Soon we were back at our castle as Larxene, Saix, and Demyx were waiting for us.
"Hey there Axel! We've been waiting for ya! How bout a handshake?" Demyx said with eager eyes. Axel laughed and moved forward. As Demyx outstretched his hand I clearly saw he had a buzzer attached to his palm, I thought about saying something, but I decided it would be funny to watch Axel suffer. Axel unknowingly grabbed Demyx's hand and was delivered a sturdy shock. Demyx ran away laughing and hid behind Saix. Axel growled as Roxas and I laughed.
"That's enough you two. Axel how was your mission?" Saix asked with a slight smile on his face.
"Well the heartless are changing worlds. And it seems they are being led by Pete. Nixod did a pretty good job of taking notes. And Xenen took on Pete and delivered a finishing blow. However we let him go. And that idiot Malificent is looking for a sorcerer who lacks a heart and it was in Twilight Town. Other than that, just the same old story."
"Hey I helped!" Roxas yelled. I rubbed his head and then we began to laugh again.
"I don't care how well she did; I guarantee you that bitch couldn't beat me!" Larxene said with a snarled lip.
The entire room went silent. Saix and Demyx looked at each other and began to back away. Roxas and Axel were trying to keep Nixod at bay, but it was obvious that he would soon break free.
"I don't have a problem with you. I don't want any trouble, but do not disrespect me; I haven't done a thing to you." I stated. Before I could say another word Larxene had slapped me to the ground and I slid across the room.
-Nixod-
I lost it. The moment she hit Xenen I lost all control I ever had. I hopped over Axel and run full force at her. She tried to kick me away but I quickly moved her aside so she kicked air. I brought my fists together and swung as if hitting a ball with a golf club and she flew into the wall across the room. She tried to pull out her thunder kunai but I quickly yanked them away from her. I held her in place, charged at her and kicked her in the chest. I clapped my hands together again and swung them 360 degrees. As I did that a pale red ball sealed around Larxene, and as I swung my hands the ball was bounced against the floor and launching higher. I repeated the movement two more times and as I did the ball was launched higher and higher and I rose higher as well. When we were about 100 feet up in the air I slowly pulled my hands apart and as I did telekinetic energy hit Larxene, still inside of the ball. I brought my hands crashing down and as I did the ball disappeared and Larxene was slammed into the ground.
"You two! My office! Now!" a harsh voiced yelled at as. I turned to see Marluxia holding his scythe and glowering at Larxene and me. I grudgingly followed, making sure to walk a few steps behind Larxene at all times. When we reached Marluxia's office, I sat in a seat farthest away from Larxene.
"I won't tolerate your insolence anymore Larxene. Your poisonous attitude is going to ruin my entire plan. If I have to say something to you again, I promise you that you will regret it. Now get out!" Larxene stared at Marluxia for a few more seconds, and then quickly left the room.
"I'm ever so sorry about that Nixod. She….is a special case. I don't even know why we have her around. Now I would like to talk to you. Within the Organization, we have two teams; the Alpha team and the Beta team. The Alpha team is led by Xemnas and consists of Xigbar, Xaldin, Luxord, Demyx, Axel, Roxas, and Saix. The Beta team is led by myself and consists of Larxene, Lexaeus, Zexion, Vexen, and sometimes Axel. Now, what the rest of the Organization does not know is that the Beta team has plans to overthrow Xemnas. We are not pleased with the way that Xemnas is moving. We want hearts as well, but Xemnas is moving far to slow. What I'm offering you is a chance to be a part of the change. How would you, number XIV, like to become the newest member of the Beta team?" I stared and thought about it. If I did, what would happen to Xenen? Could she join me? And if she couldn't, then what?
"I think…. I'll have to think about it. I'll have an answer for you soon enough." I got out of the chair and as I did, Marluxia uttered 3 words that almost sent chills up my spine.
"We'll be waiting."
Well there's chapter 2. Longer than usual, but I like it. It's nice. Anyway, R and R please.
