The next thing he knew, Demyx woke up in his bed. Was all of that a dream? Larxene came in his room.
"I gotta hand it to you, water boy. Recon missions really are your thing. I suppose I'll keep my end of the bargain and be your slave. What do you want me to do first?" she asked crossing her arms. "Saix has another recon mission to be done on that new world. Want me to take care of it?"
"No No. I'll do it. I want you to uh…polish my new weapon."
"Fine. Whatever."
Demyx left his room and went over to see Saix. He didn't have to worry about not taking the axe, with the sticker with the nobody insignia on it, he could summon it anytime he wanted. He walked up to Saix.
"I'll take that mission now."
"Go ahead."
When Demyx returned to the world, he was in front of the old abandoned house. He went up to the door, and knocked on it. Marceline answered.
"Demyx! I never thought I would see you again!"
"Yeah, so uh, exactly what happened? How did you ever get out of there alive?"
"Well basically, that kid and dog were horrified that the Princess was dead. Oh you should have seen it. They were just balling!"
"That sounds pretty bad."
"I know. I got out of there before they could do anything. But now, thanks to you phase one of my plan is already complete. Now we have to begin on phase two." She said putting her hand on his shoulder.
"What is phase two?"
"Infiltration and command of that castle."
"What do you need me for?
"I can tell you're pretty good with the axe."
"So?"
"You can command my army of the undead to take over that town!"
"Why can't you do it?" asked Demyx, scared.
"I was exiled."
"Oh."
"Yes."
"And you want me to do this because I'm your slave?"
"Yep. And I know you will. And I know why you will."
"Marceline, before I do any of this, I have to ask, why?"
"Why? WHY? WHY DO YOU THINK?" She screamed. "HOW WOULD YOU LIKE IT IF YOU WERE THE QUEEN OF THE VAMPIRES, AND YOU AND YOUR RACE HAD TO BE HATED, KILLED OFF, AND FORCED TO LIVE IN A SHITTY ASS SHACK FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE? AND BE ALL ALONE, HUH?" she said. Tears slowly started to come out of her eyes.
"Marceline."
What else could Demyx say? Deep down, he really didn't care, which was the sad part. He could only act like he could.
" Well, I don't hate you." He said quietly.
"Oh shut up, I know you do. You must be scared stiff of me."
"No, I think you are a pretty cool chick."
Marceline blushed.
"Aww, you're just saying that."
"No, I…mean it. I mean you're pretty awesome."
"Thanks."
Just then, heartless appeared all around. A weird thing for them to do in a time like this. They were shadows.
"Heartless!" Demyx yelled.
"What? These cute little guys? But they're so cuddly!" She said hugging one.
"But that's what they are called and… hey why aren't they attacking you?"
"I don't know. These little guys love me for some reason. Hey! That gives me an Idea! I could command these guys to take over the town instead!"
Demyx cringed.
"Me commanding heartless? The organization is not gonna like that!" he thought to himself.
"Well…I guess that could work?"
"Great! I'll tell the heartless to listen to you. Now Demyx, here is the most important part. You will probably come across a boy and a talking dog. Try not to kill them, just send them into the dungeon or something."
"Uh sure." Demyx said as he started to walk away with the shadows.
"And Demyx?"
"Yes?"
Marceline floated over and kissed him on the cheek.
"Thanks, and good luck."
Demyx nodded. He then commanded the heartless to follow him. They were headed toward the town. After a bit of marching, they finally reached it. The candy people came out to attack, but Demyx gave the order. The heartless shadows mercilessly slaughtered the people. Many were torn to shreds. And soon other heartless, soldiers and large bodies joined in on the attack. The war escalated quickly as denizens of the fire kingdom joined in. but they were all quickly killed off by a hoard of blue rhapsodies. Even the fire princess herself was frozen. And soon the kid and dog faced Demyx himself. The kid had another sword, and dueled with Demyx. The kid was overwhelmed by Demyx's axe fighting techniques. Demyx sent a blood geyser right in his face, causing him to fly into a building. The dog was quickly captured as well. Demyx ordered the heartless to send them into the dungeon. Soon after, the remaining candy people surrendered.
About 15 minutes or so…
Marceline was happy as a vampire queen could be. She looked all around the princess's quarters.
"Oh Demyx! I'm so proud of you!"
"Aww, it was nothing."
"Well, I was thinking. Demyx, I want you to be my king."
"Wha, what?"
"You are the most coolest, awesomest, most incredible guy I have ever met."
She reached over and pulled him into a deep kiss. Demyx quickly sunk into it, and after awhile, they pulled away.
"Marceline, I was thinking. I don't think I ever want to leave! I want to stay here forever!"
"Oh Demyx! I was hoping you would say that!"
But then their celebration was interrupted by someone appearing through green fire, and a tubby black cat like creature.
"You imbecile! How dare you command my heartless!"
