"You should get dressed for supper!" Someone said. I looked around but there was no one in there.
"Hello? Is anyone here?" I whispered, frightened to death.
"No, of course not… The voices are from inside your head… Of course someone's here, idiot!" I heard an annoyed voice from somewhere in the room say.
I looked around, but I couldn't see anyone. Except the… wardrobe. It looked a bit like a face there, didn't it?
"I can see that your young, but I assumed you had some brain…" The wardrobe said. At least I think it did… I could see its 'mouth' move. I screamed and ran to the balcony and tried to open the door violently.
"The wardrobe talks!" I screamed.
"Yes, I'm a talking wardrobe, now get dressed!" The wardrobe said and sighed.
"Why do you talk?" I asked, still not coming closer.
"Oh no reason, now get dressed!" The wardrobe ordered me and threw some clothes out on the bed.
Okay, a talking wardrobe… Now CALM down Roxas.
"I-I am not eating supper with him!" I said. I wasn't going to be easy dealt with.
"Yes, you are!" The wardrobe said and glared at me.
"No, I'm not!" I continued, but looked slightly at the clothes I was offered. They looked awfully comfortable.
"If you don't eat dinner with him, he'll get mad…" The wardrobe said and it sounded a lot like a threat. It probably was too.
"So?" I asked and tried not to sound scared but by the look of the wardrobe I think I failed miserably.
"Believe me; you do NOT want him mad…" Another threat-alike sentence left the wardrobes 'mouth'.
"Oh really?" I asked and tried to act cool.
"Yes, REALLY! And aren't you hungry? Don't you just love the thought of something to eat?" The wardrobe teased me.
"Eh… I can…" I felt something in my head scream 'Oh hell no you aren't! Do NOT skip supper! You are going to eat!' and my stomach have that familiar feel of hunger. "Fine, whatever…" I mumbled, feeling a little ashamed of giving in so easily.
"Oh don't be so pitiful! Now put this on!" The wardrobe said and threw some clothes at me.
"You're kidding, right?" I said as I looked at the silky fabric.
"No, not really… But maybe it would be too soon." The wardrobe said and took back the pink dress.
"What do you mean 'too soon'?" I asked. NO way in HELL would I EVER wear that dress.
"Nothing!" The wardrobe said and fake-smiled.
"So, what should I call you? 'Wardrobe'?" I said as I took some other clothes the wardrobe reached me. As soon as the first shock had left my body I kind of didn't think about how weird it was with a talking wardrobe anymore.
"If you're referring to what my name is, it's Marluxia." The wardrobe said and raised an eyebrow as I stripped down to my underwear and put on the clothes.
"Okay then, Marluxia. When is it time for supper?" I asked as I looked in the mirror.
The wardrobe was about to say something but was interrupted by a knock on the door.
"Time for supper!" A squeaky voice called out from the other side of the door.
"Now." The wardrobe said and motioned towards the door.
I opened it and saw a clock standing outside smiling at me.
"Why does the furniture's talk here?" Roxas groaned.
"Eh… That's a story we'll have to tell another time…" The clock said.
"Okay, fine…" I muttered.
"Hey, Vexen!" Marluxia/the wardrobe called out.
"Yes, Marluxia?" The clock answered.
"Make sure he doesn't get hurt…" Marluxia said and smiled evilly. The clock nodded and closed the door behind us.
"What did he mean by that?" I asked and tried to not sound as scared as I felt.
"Eh… I don't think you want to know. I assure you it was just an immature joke!" The clock said nervously.
"What kind of joke?" I asked and got the impression that I probably didn't want to know after all.
"Eh… Master usually… bites his lover during intercourse…" The clock said uncomfortably.
The silent was thick enough to cut through. It was like the whole castle screamed 'AWKWARD!'.
When I finally got my ability to speak back the first words out of my mouth were "I'm not his lover."
"Yes, I know. But Marluxia has a dirty mind which I prefer to stay out of." The clock said. "We're here!" He said and opened the door into the dining hall. "Time for supper!"
"Wow." Was all I could say. Food. Nice food. Fancy food. Fancy room. Me like.
"You like it?" The beast chuckled and smirked.
"Yes." I said, too scared to say anything else.
"Good, good." He mused as I sat down on the other side of the long table.
We ate dinner in silence. After dinner the beast walked up to me and pulled my chair out so that I could stand up.
"Thank you." I mumbled and moved towards the door.
"Where do you think you're going?" The beast asked as I reached out for the doorknob.
"Eh… Back to my room." I said and turned around to look at him. His mane was red. How odd.
"Why would you go back there?" The beast said as he moved towards me.
"To sle-sleep." I stammered.
"Now why would you do that now?" He asked and put his hands on both sides of me, trapping me towards the wall.
"Because I'm tired…" I mumbled.
I was just about to escape him when he pressed his lips to mine. I immediately tried to push him away from me but he was stronger. I used all my power to push him away from me, I really did but it just didn't work.
This happened to me a lot. At least with Setzer around. But these kisses weren't as forceful as the ones I get from Setzer. These were more caring. More respectful. But in this situation, that didn't mean a shit to me.
He left my lips and started attacking my throat and neck. I desperately tried to get him off of me but with no success. I started screaming. A lot.
Suddenly he stopped and threw me over his shoulder. I kept screaming but I also started kicking and hitting him, but he didn't even seem to notice.
We went through a corridor and I started getting tired from screaming so much. He opened a door that led into a bedroom.
'He's going to freaking rape me!' I thought as he threw me on the bed and climbed me. He started taking off my shirt.
This can't be happening. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no! This CAN'T be happening.
I did the only thing I could think of. I kneed him.
It was too dark to see his reaction but he slid off of me. I grabbed my shirt and ran for it. Out, out, out of the room. And out, out, out of the castle. If he's going to rape me then I can not stay there. I opened the gates and ran into the forest. Suddenly there was a bunch of wolves chasing me and the last I remembered was that one of them bit my ankle.
---
When I woke up I was back in the castle. I was lying on the floor and two of the talking furnitures were bandaging my ankle.
"What happened?" I asked and sat up.
"You would have been dead by now if Master hadn't saved you, dude!" A candleholder said.
"Yes, indeed you would've been… You shouldn't have left the castle. You promised you wouldn't." Vexen/The clock said.
"He. Tried. To. Rape. Me. I will not stay with someone who would do that!" I said and crossed my arms.
"Yes, I know. But he saved you and got seriously hurt. Think of that instead." Vexen said as he finished bandaging my foot.
"Where is he now?" I asked.
The candle lighter pointed towards a big door.
I went up to the door and opened it. In there, the beast was sitting and licking his scars.
"Don't do that! Let me help you!" I said and took one of the wet towels from one of the furnitures who had been trying to clean his scars.
He let me put it on the scar only to jerk the arm away. "THAT HURTS!" He screamed.
"IT WOULDN'T HURT AS MUCH IF YOU STOPPED MOVING!" I screamed back.
All the furnitures gasped. They probably weren't used to people talking back to the beast.
"THAT WOULDN'T BE NEEDED IF YOU HADN'T RAN AWAY!" He screamed back.
"I WOULDN'T HAVE RAN AWAY IF YOU HADN'T TRIED TO RAPE ME!" I screamed back.
"Well… But…" The beast didn't seem to have an answer for that. "You shouldn't have come here in the first place…" He mumbled as he looked away.
'He's trying to turn this around so it seems like it's my fault? That son of a bitch!'
"I had to save my sister!" I exclaimed. "Now hold still." I said and put the towel over his scar. He groaned in pain. "Thank you for saving me by the way…" I mumbled and looked down at me knees.
The beast glanced over at me and smirked. "You're welcome." He said simply.
We sat there for a while. Me, cleaning his scars, and him, smiling smugly for some reason I prefer not to know.
"You should probably go to sleep now. You seem tired." The beast stated.
"Eh… Okay… Bye!" I said and left the room and went to my room.
