So Fallout 4 is awesome, not surprising I know but still. Enjoy.
Velvet sat in her seat on the bullhead twiddling her thumbs as she tried to think of a way to explain her situation to Coco. Sitting next to her Xigbar just continued to relax without much of a care. After he had saved Velvet earlier that night, he had her take him to a restaurant and by him some food, while they ate he explained that until he found a way to break the magic binding them together, he would be sticking close by the girl and acting as a pseudo bodyguard sense if she dies then he might also. This to him was the best option sense he could open up a portal to darkness that would take him out of this world, in other words he was stuck on Remnant.
While Velvet understood the situation better after he took the time to explain it further she was still in shock by it. Velvet looked down at her hands with a worried face. "Hey now, don't look so glum. Worst case scenario, we're stuck together for a couple weeks, my boss comes looking for me, and when he finds me he'll break the spell. He's way better at this kind of crap then me. The you and I can go our separate ways and you won't have to deal with my, now far younger and handsome looking mug, bothering you." He explained nonchalantly.
"Your sure your boss would come looking?" She asked nervously.
"Of course, he needs me." Xigbar laughed. The bullhead began to land near the school and letting them off, as they began walking to the school Xigbar started looking around. "Nice place, got nothin on HQ back home, but still nice." He said as they walked.
Velvet began leading them towards the dorms. "It's late so we'll have to talk to Professor Ozpin tomorrow. When we get to my dorm room please wait a moment so I can explain the situation to my teammates." She asked very politely.
"Ozpin?" He asked not recognizing the name.
"He's the headmaster here at the school." She explained as they walked into the dorm building and lead him to some stairs. It didn't take long to reach a white door a for Velvet to stop. "Okay, please wait right here while I go in and explain to Coco." Xigbar nodded and watched her quickly slip into the room and close the door behind her.
Xigbar put his hood up over his head as he leaned against the wall waiting. He stood there for around ten minutes before the doors opened and out walked a brown haired girl wearing a large black T-shirt and a pair of very short shorts. "Are you the one stalking Vel?" She asked sound slightly pissed.
Xigbar was actually taken aback by the accusation, in his life he'd been called a lot of things. Murderer, theif, spy, all around degenerate, but never a stalker. "Stalking? As if. I don't want to be here any more than Rabbit wants me here." As he said this Velvet ran out into the hall and got between the two of them.
"Coco no, I told you that he helped me. It's not his fault we're stuck like this." She said pleading with her leader.
"Come on Vel, do you really believe that crock about magic binding you two. He lying." She said looking at Xigbar.
"Now, now, calling me a liar like that really is rude." Xigbar said pulling his sleeve up and repeating his demonstration from earlier and biting down on his own flesh hard enough to cause Velvet to squeak and flinch from the pain. Xigbar let up when he saw Coco become concerned for her teammate. "As you can see I'm not lying, nor am I the cause of this situation. I want this to be resolved just as quickly as you do, but I don't think thats going to happen tonight in the hallway so if we could move this conversation somewhere a bit less public I would appreciate it." Xigbar said in his usual nonchalant and patronizing way.
Coco frowned for a second before stepping aside and waving him into the room. Xigbar wasted no time in entering, the room itself was actually of pretty nice size and divided into two sections. One side was clean and orderly, the other less so. Coco walked over to the messy side and sat down on a bed that was pushed up against another bed with a dark skinned young man sleeping in it, from what Xigbar could tell the boy was asleep.
On the other side of the room was another empty bed that must have belonged to Velvet sense it was the only empty one left as the last bed had a very large Asian boy sitting on it cross legged, watching every move he made.
"Okay, so whats your deal?" Coco asked Xigbar with her arms cross.
"My 'deal' is simple." Xigbar said making quotes with his fingers upon saying the word deal. "I'm just going to stick around Rabbit here and keep her safe until I can either find a way to break the magic binding us together, or my boss comes to find me and breaks it himself. After that your free of me." He explained as he walked over to a large beanbag in the corner of the room and made himself comfortable. "Damn I love these things, I should get one to take back home." He said as he put his hands behind his head and relaxed.
Coco looked over to Velvet who was standing in the center of the room, Coco sighed and shook her head. "Fine. Sense you did save Vel I'm willing to give you the benefit of the doubt, but I'll be watching you." With that she crawled back into her beds covers and cuddled up against the dark skinned boy who pulled her in closer.
Xigbar looked at Velvet who was still standing there looking at him. "It's fine Rabbit, I won''t kill you guys in your sleep. Just calm down alright?" He said to the girl before closing his own eye and letting himself drift off to sleep.
Velvet turned around and looked to Yatsuhashi who just nodded to her. She then decided that this was best handle in the morning when she wasn't so tired.
Elsewhere
Xemnas sat in his throne in Where Nothing Gathers, and flipped through a few pages from a book written by Ansem the Wise many years ago when he felt something off. After a moment he closed the book and allowed it to fade into the darkness. "Saix." He called out. There were a few moments of silence before a dark portal opened up upon Saix's chair and soon he appeared.
"You called." He answered his leader.
"Something has happened to Xigbar, it feels as though he's been cut from the darkness." Xemnas explained to the stoic Nobody.
Saix looked slightly surprised to hear this. "Do you think he may have regained his heart?"
"No, he is not filled with light like a human is, he is simply disconnected from the dark." Xemnas spoke without actually looking at Saix. "I want you to go find him and observe him." He ordered him.
"Do you want me to confront him?" Saix asked, now with suspicions the Xigbar may have betrayed them.
"Only if you deem it necessary to protect the Organization and our goals." Xemnas replied gaining a nod from Saix.
"Very well." Saix then disappeared into a portal of darkness.
Ozpin's Office
"And thats the dealio headman." Xigbar said as he finished explaining the situation to Ozpin who sat behind his desk sipping his morning coffee. Glynda stood next to the desk with a disgusted look over how Xigbar was being so casual with the headmaster.
"I see, well Mr. Xigbar I certainly do agree that the best course of action would be to keep you around until we can break this magic that is binding you two together. As long as you are here we can make sure nothing happens to you that could harm Ms. Scarletina and the other way around. Would I be correct in assuming that you are versed in combat based off your rescuing my student?" Ozpin asked taking another sip of his coffee.
Xigbar chuckled. "You can say that. I have been in my fair share of scraps before." He said pointing at his face with his thumb. The giant scar and eye patch were dead give aways that he had a violent past, and usually came in handy when he needed to intimidate someone.
"I see, very well. You may remain here at Beacon academy until you have safely broken any magics that may link the two of you together." Ozpin turned to Velvet and smiled. "Ms. Scarletina, Professor Goodwitch here will walk you back to class and inform your professor to not count you as tardy." He said nodding to Glynda who understood what he meant.
After Velvet stood up and thanked the professor she made her way to the elevator along with the female teacher. Once the door closed Ozpin turned back to Xigbar. "Now that we are alone Mr. Xigbar, how about you tell me what a Nobody is doing on Remnant." He said clearly and without any sign of fear.
"Wow, does everybody here know about us or something?" Xigbar exclaimed throwing his arms up. "Honestly we may be losing our touch if so many people have heard of us." He said more as a groan than anything.
"As far as I know I am one of the very few on Remnant that is aware of your kind, the heartless, and the existence of other worlds. We have been able to maintain an isolation from other worlds do to the fact that the heartless avoid Remnant out of some form of fear for the grimm. Now answer my question." Ozpin said again more sternly this time in an attempt to intimidate Xigbar, though after countless scoldings and angry rants From Xemnas and the old man, both of which put Ozpin to shame when it came to level of scary, Xigbar wasn't impressed.
"I really only came here on vacation. I got no plans of any kind for this world at the moment." He said honestly to the man who frowned.
"I see. Well I hope you don't mind if I am a bit suspicious of your kind." Ozpin said not actually caring whether or not Xigbar minded. "Though be aware. If you or any other of your kind show yourselves to be threats to my school, you will regret it. I may not be a keyblade wielder, but I am by no means someone to be trifled with. You may leave now." Ozpin finished while giving his best serious glare as Xigbar stood to leave.
Once he was gone Ozpin leaned back in his chair and let out the breath he had been holding. In all honesty he wasn't sure if even he was strong enough to take on a intelligent Nobody and win. He just hoped that Xigbar was telling the truth about only being there here for vacation, other wise they may be in for more trouble than they can handle.
