Soft taps graced the
ivory floors of the organization's castle. Roxas paced quickly
through the halls, searching for Axel.
"Where are you?" He
asked himself this so many times before.
Roxas stopped in a
lobby, no one was there. Looking around to confirm he was alone Roxas
let out a quiet frustrated yell. Throwing back her left foot he
slammed the toe of his boot into the ground. A skid mark was left
behind.
He looked to the floor, the mark on the ground.
"What's wrong with me…"
The frustration turned to
annoyance as he continued looking. A large frosted
glass door was open slightly; Roxas was leaning in trying to see
inside.
"No sign of him." He backed out and pushed the door
shut.
Click.
Roxas leaned against the door and closed his
eyes slightly, thinking.
The thinking was soon interrupted by a
dark voice.
"Number 13."
Roxas opened his eyes and
stood at attention, leaving his thoughts behind.
"Yes Xemnas?"
The 'superior' stood in front of him. He held a small parcel in
his hands and tilted his head slightly.
"Were you looking for
something?"
His eyes narrowed as he spoke.
"Yes… I
mean, well, no." Roxas changed his answer; the thought of him
looking for Axel with no reason seemed rather odd.
"Well then,
I suggest you stay out of my room." The words were hostile, almost
threatening. Roxas nodded and moved away from the door, looking at
what Xemnas was carrying in his arms. Xemnas quickly walked past him
and closed the door.
Click.
Roxas thought he heard talking in
the room but he wasn't concerned with what Xemnas was doing.
Continuing to search, Roxas checked back to Axel's room. He
approached the door slowly, keeping quiet. He lifted his hands to
place them on the knob when the door cracked open slowly. In a panic
Roxas jumped back and disappeared through a black portal.
"Bye
Axel!" Demyx said as he turned around to wave. A smile was on his
face and a small giggle emitted from his lips.
"Cya." Axel
replied as he messed with some things in his room.
Demyx walked
out backwards from the room, closing the door behind him.
Click.
He slanted his eyes and smiled sheepishly. He turned around and went
to lean on the door but didn't have the chance.
"Yo, Demyx."
He lifted his head and looked into a golden eye.
"Oh, hi
Xigbar." #2 of the organization stood in front of him. His hands
were placed in his pockets.
"What were you doin' with Axel?"
"Nothing, he just wanted me to come and talk with him."
"Sure."
Xigbar turned his head and didn't look at Demyx, he started to walk
away.
"What's that suppose to mean Xigbar!?" He
chased/walked after him.
"Number seven, it has come to my
attention that number thirteen thinks he has a heart..." Xemnas
placed a hand on his desk and looked in front of it. Saix stood at
attention. Papers were in his hands; paperwork.
"Is that so?"
Saix said this in a reply but Xemnas ignored it, continuing.
"I
need you to find out if this is true, by any means possible."
Xemnas finished and walked out from behind his desk handing Saix the
papers he was holding.
"Any?" Xemnas walked past Saix to the
door. He opened it and stood there, waiting for him to leave.
"Yes."
Saix walked to the door and stopped before exiting.
"Xemnas…"
He said this slowly.
"Yes?"
"…Nothing…" He
continued to walk out the door but seemed hesitant. The door slid
shut and a click sounded.
Saix stood outside for a few moments
before he started walking.
'Roxas isn't the only one that seems to think he has a heart…'
