Chapter 2
Charlie awoke to the strong smell of paint; she wrinkled her nose and rolled over to read the digital clock on her bedside table. 9:13, Charlie groaned, it was WAY too early to get up for her, and curled back into a ball underneath her warm doona. Sadly her sleep-in was interrupted by Amaya slamming the door open.
"Good Morning, Good Morning, Good Morning, it's time to rise and shine" yelled her younger sister. When Charlie didn't respond, Amaya quietly sneaked up to her bed and ripped the covers off her, exposing her skin to the cold.
"Wakey, Wakey, Eggs and Bakey" yelled Amaya louder than before. Charlie curled up into a ball and groped for the covers.
"What do you want!?" muttered Charlie as Amaya pulled the covers out of her reach.
"Time for breakfast, get up" Amaya demanded, she threw her sister's covers across the room and turned to leave.
"I'll give you ten minutes, and then I'm bringing a bucket". Charlie could hear the threat in Amaya's voice; she was referring to her favourite wake up method, a bucket of freezing cold water. Amaya walked out the room a look of evil plastered on her face from the threat.
"Mmm…quiet" mumbled Charlie into her pillow, she began to think of Amaya's threat, and Amaya had done it before to various people such as their dad, Axel, Roxas, herself and to certain teachers on school camps.
Charlie decided to give the water a pass, and got up to get dressed. Charlie glanced at the sunset that Amaya and herself had painted on one of the walls last night. There were also pictures of friends and various posters tacked to the walls near their beds. Charlie quickly glanced at her clock, she had five minutes to get ready, and stalked into the bathroom determined not to get soaked by Amaya.
Meanwhile Amaya was sitting at the large kitchen bench with her head in her hands as she stared at the clock on the wall. In the dining room there were two separate tables, each large enough to seat eight people. Surprisingly not everything was white, the chairs and table being a grey colour and a multitude of 'Nobody' symbols.
Amaya kept her attention on the clock, only four minutes had passed. Not many people had come into the kitchen yet, only Xemnas and Zexion, but Xemnas had scowled and Zexion ignored her. Five minutes now. Amaya sighed and rested her head on the table top, her stomach growled. Amaya hadn't eaten yet; she was waiting for Charlie, as they always ate together.
"This is the song that never ends" Amaya quietly sung to herself.
"Yes, it goes on and on my friends" she glanced at the clock, four minutes till she got to soak Charlie.
"I started sing not knowing what it was and now I'm singing just because" Amaya let out small growl of impatience and got up from her chair, an evil plan forming in her mind, she ran from the dining room to the kitchen and begun to fill a bucket of cold water.
Amaya then opened a small portal, just big enough for the bucket and quickly put the bucket inside and withdrew her hand, so it couldn't get stuck. She then sprinted to her and Charlie's room and as she reached the door she saw the bucket of water where she sent it to, on the floor through her tiny dark portal.
"I'm sure Charlie wouldn't mind if I was a few minutes early" Amaya thought to herself as she picked up the bucket and got rid of the portal with a single thought. Just as she was about to barge through the door, her sister walked out causing Amaya to curse as she almost tipped the water on herself,
"Damn". Amaya muttered.
"Nearly got me" said Charlie, a smug look about her face. Amaya frowned, her mind elsewhere.
"Do you think…"
"Uncle Axel" her sister finished for her. An almost identical smirk played across both the young girls' features.
It didn't take long for them to find their uncles room, seeing as the number VIII was pinned to his door. Charlie and Amaya quietly stepped out of Charlie's portal and into Axel's room, being extremely careful not to spill any water onto the carpeted floor.
The girls snuck over to Axel's bed, where a soft snoring was coming from. Charlie and Amaya looked at each other and whispered a countdown to each other.
"3…2…1… "Amaya quickly tipped the bucket of water onto the lump she thought was Axel's head, unfortunately for Axel it was.
"WAKEY, WAKEY EGGS AND BAKEY!!!!!!!!" shouted the two girls, as they stumbled out the door, tripping on the mess on the floor, no longer bothering to be quiet.
Axel slowly sat up, his left eye twitching in his anger. Axel's vibrant and usually spiky hair was plastered over his face and shoulder, droplets of cold water sliding down his bare chest. (A/N – all the fan girls go squee!!)
Charlie and Amaya sat at the large kitchen bench. Charlie was eating her all time favourite cereal, coco-pops. She was chewing slowly, staring into the bowl as if it would answer all of her random questions. Amaya, on the other hand, was holding toast with one hand and drinking orange juice with the other
Their heads turned when Roxas entered the room, his feet were dragging against the ground and his hair was a mess. Roxas yawned widely, sat next to Charlie then folded his arms and rested his head on them.
"Morning Roxie" said Charlie, his entrance breaking her trance.
"Tired are we Roxas? What were you up to last night?" asked Amaya as she leaned forward so she could see Roxas better.
"Does it have anything to do with Namine" suggested Charlie, poking his right shoulder. Roxas groaned and pulled his arms tighter around his head.
"He didn't deny it!!!!" yelled Amaya. "But he didn't confirm it either" stated Charlie. Both girls paused as Roxas mumbled something to the table.
"What was that Roxie? You were making out with Namine??" questioned Amaya. Roxas lifted his head from his arms so the girls could hear him better.
"No you dolts, I was training until two am, that's why I'm tired" Roxas snapped.
"Touchy, Touchy" Charlie said poking his forehead.
"Hungry?" Amaya questioned, holding out the piece of toast she hadn't eaten yet.
"No, I'll eat later, after I catch up on three to four hours of sleep" said Roxas, standing up from the table. "Wait, if you're so tired why didn't you sleep-in??" asked Charlie as she took her now empty bowl into the kitchen.
"Axel came storming into my room this morning, asking where you where so he could kill you…what did you guys do to him?" asked Roxas, as Charlie walked back into the room.
Charlie and Amaya looked at each other and smirked.
"Just the usual wake up method" Amaya said swinging back in her chair.
"The 'lets chuck water over someone to piss them off and wake them up at the same time' method?" Roxas said raising an eyebrow.
"You have learnt well, young Jedi" Amaya said putting her hands together and bowing over-dramatically, almost falling off her seat in the process.
"I know you aren't scared," said Charlie to Amaya who still had an evil smirk on her face "but is there anywhere we can hide?" Her question now directed at Roxas.
"Yea, there should be heaps of places for you to hide, there's the basement, the library, the gym…" Roxas uttered while yawning "I think the gym would be the best…he almost never goes there"
"To the gym we go" Charlie said suddenly standing up, grabbing Amaya by her wrist and walking to the door.
"TOAST!!" Amaya yelled reaching for her toast that had been abandoned on the table. Charlie slapped her forehead and let Amaya get her toast, and then they both ran out of the kitchen, leaving Roxas staring blankly after them.
Axel stormed from the hall into the kitchen in search of his trouble making nieces. As he stomped his way into the room all he found was Roxas drowsily standing up from his chair.
"Oh man, not you again…" groaned Roxas rubbing one of his hands across his forehead.
"Yes me again. Where are they??" Axel said angrily.
"I don't know" lied Roxas keeping a perfect, but drowsy, poker face. "Why do you think I know where they would be?"
"Because you are their FRIEND, Roxas" enhancing the word by poking Roxas chest "and you know this castle both inside and out!" Axel uttered glancing at the table. There were two abandoned cups, and a small plate covered in crumbs.
"They were here…" stated Axel suspiciously, staring at Roxas with one eyebrow raised.
Roxas held his arms up in defence. "I swear, they were there when I got here!"
Axel swiftly turned towards the door. "Fine, be that way…" He walked out the doors slamming them angrily.
Roxas signed rubbing his eyes sleepily. "Why do I always get dragged into their pranks?" He said to nobody in particular, as he trudged slowly out of the room so he could go back to sleep.
"Whoa" Amaya and Charlie said in awe as they walked into the massive gym. There was a large weights section, a padded area for fighting, there was two small pools, one filled with hot water and one filled with freezing cold that were used for endurance training, three punching bags and a trampoline that was next to a foam pit.
"Extreme" Amaya said walking up to a punching bag and punching it experimentally.
"I wonder how much they train" Charlie said looking around. "Oh my gosh… trampoline" she squealed and immediately ran up and climbed on.
"Amaya, look at me! I'm flying!!" Charlie squealed as she jumped into the air. Amaya sighed and turned to look at her elder sister.
"We are trying to hide you know" Amaya said sarcastically "Quiet, you know, the word?" Charlie stuck her tongue at Amaya and continued to bounce.
"Watch this!" Charlie said excitedly. She bounced at an angle that sent her flying off the trampoline and into the foam pit on her stomach. Charlie was giggling uncontrollably.
"My turn" Amaya said while taking her sisters place on the trampoline. She jumped a few times till she was high in the air and dove into the foam pit.
"BOMBS AWAY!!" Amaya yelled tucking herself into a ball. She landed a few meters away from Charlie and burst out laughing.
Charlie mimicked her voice "Quiet, you know, the word?" Amaya pulled a face at her sister and dove under the foam pieces.
"Where are you?" Charlie said searching around the foam pit.
"Dun nun" Charlie heard her sister start singing the 'Jaws Theme'. "Dun nun" Charlie squealed and dove into the foam, trying to get away from her little sister. Unfortunately, Charlie 'swam' right into her, causing Amaya to take her chance and tickle Charlie's sides, their squeals and giggles filling the room.
"I swear you can be such a little kid sometimes" said Charlie as she pulled her self out of the pit.
"That's why you where born first" retorted Amaya.
"You've got heaps of foam chunks in you hair Lee" chuckled Amaya, her head poking out at the top of the foam pile.
Charlie ran her fingers through her thick mane of hair flicking out small chunks of foam. She laughed and flicked one at Amaya's head.
"You're not doing much better, your majesty" Charlie said sarcastically gesturing to Amaya's hair. Amaya crossed her eyes then shook her hair so all the foam flew out, covering Charlie's shoes and the floor.
The sisters turned their heads as they heard someone walking down the hall. The looked at each other and then ran to a hiding place. Amaya resubmerged herself in the foam pit while Charlie ran into a storage cupboard, shutting the door just as head poked in the room.
"Anyone here?" The blonde headed person said leaning in further. Amaya let out a sigh of relief happy that their Uncle hadn't found them yet. Charlie would have let out a sigh too, if she hadn't been crammed into a cupboard filled with old punching bags, mats and towels.
Charlie fell out of the cupboard, punching gloves and extra towels falling on top of her, "Hi Demyx!" said Charlie as she looked at him from her place on the floor. Demyx jumped then smiled sheepishly.
"Hey…err…Amaya?" Demyx said randomly guessing her name.
"Charlie" Charlie corrected him. He smiled nervously and scratched the back of his head.
"So what are you doing here?" Demyx asked stepping fully into the room. He had exchanged his black cloak for black tracksuit pants and a skin tight dark blue singlet, obviously for training.
"Oh, just hiding from Uncle Axel" Charlie stated placing her hands behind her head and gazing once more around the room. Demyx had a confused look plastered on his face.
"What did you do to him?" Demyx walked over to the weights section and started to stretch. Charlie followed him humming and skipping slightly.
"We just poured a bucket of cold water over him" A small voice came from the foam pit. Demyx jumped in surprise.
"He sleeps too much anyway" The voice from the foam pit came again. Demyx laughed uncertainly.
"I agree with you there" Charlie agreed with the foam.
"Same, once I tried to get him to train with me at 6 am…never again…" Demyx said shivering from the memory. "Lets just say my hair will never be the same" He unconsciously ran a hand though his gelled hair.
Amaya climbed out of the foam pit and shook her head viscously, making the foam that had been lodged in it fly out. Demyx jumped once more.
"Wow, you're a very jumpy person aren't you" stated Charlie. Demyx sighed, ignored Charlie and sat on one of the weight machines stretching his legs.
Amaya picked up one of the foam chunks and threw it at Charlie. It didn't go that far, it just rolled onto her foot. Charlie ignored it and lay on the ground.
"So, Demyx, can I help you with your training? If you don't mind that is…" asked Charlie as she stared at the ceiling. "Hey!" yelled Amaya "What about me!!?" Charlie looked at her sister "You can verse him later, Amaya; I call shots in verseing him now" Amaya shrugged and jumped back into the foam pit.
"No, I don't mind. I need a moving target to focus my attacks on and to retaliate if that's ok" replied Demyx "I'll get you a weapon, seeing as you don't have one"
"I never said that I didn't have a weapon, Demyx" Charlie said smugly, as she summoned a two metre metal pole with a thought and grabbed it out of the air. Demyx smirked "You fight with a stick?" said Demyx, "It's not even sharp, what harm can you do?"
Charlie walked onto the fighting mats, and Demyx summoned his weapon, a blue sitar that was fashioned to look like the organization thirteen symbol.
"You ready?" questioned Demyx, as his took his battle stance. Charlie nodded, keeping her concentration on the task ahead. "READY…SET…FIGHT" yelled Amaya, poking her head out of the foam and taking the role of referee.
Demyx quickly summoned his element, water, with his sitar and sent it in sets to attack Charlie. But by using a number of parries, twists and blows with her staff, Charlie was not only able to avoid being hit, she also destroy her attackers. "That all you got?" asked Charlie "I thought you were better then that!!"
Charlie quickly ran towards Demyx and tried to strike him with a downward blow, but he used his sitar to block her attack, almost breaking it in half in the process. He countered her attack by quickly swinging his sitar in a wide circle, attempting to knock her of her feet, but Charlie saw this coming and quickly flipped out if the way.
"Do you want to try hand to hand combat Demyx? I don't think your Sitar will be able to take another hit like that" Charlie stated noticing that the sitar was making a horrible creaking sound as Demyx adjusted his grip.
"It's tougher then it looks" said Demyx gruffly preparing to attack again. Charlie shrugged and took her stance. She ran at him, sticking her staff in the ground so she flew over him and landed a few feet away. Not being the most balanced person in the world, she tripped and landed not on her feet but on her knees. Demyx took his chance and swung the sitar around and onto her back. Not enough to hurt only sent her slamming to the floor. Then Demyx placed the pointed end of his sitar next to her neck applying pressure slightly.
"And…Demyx is the winner!!" stated Amaya who was still sitting happily in the foam pit. Charlie scowled and stood up pushing Demyx sitar away.
"He wouldn't have won if I hadn't fallen" she said, grumpily mumbling into the floor.
"But you did" proudly stated Demyx "So I won"
"Awww…don't be a sore loser!" Amaya said laughing lightly "And I wonder why I can't beat Uncle Axel" grumbled Charlie, pushing herself up off the floor.
"Oh PMSing are we?" Amaya said laughing.
"What would you care?" growled Charlie, scowling at her sister. Demyx looked slightly sick from the sudden change in conversation subject. Amaya noticed this and smirked.
"No need to be scared, Demyx. It's all normal for us!" Charlie laughed lightly, also noticing Demyx face. "But I guess it wouldn't be normal for you. Since you do only have one other girl in the house"
Desperately Demyx changed the subject. "What about you? Up for a fight?" Amaya tapped her chin thinking. "Maybe later" said Amaya as she resubmerged herself up to her chin in foam.
Axel stormed into the library determined to find Zexion. His hopes weren't let down when he found Number 6 silently sitting in one of the sofas placed at random around the library, reading a rather large book that was balanced in his hands.
"Axel" greeted Zexion not looking up from his book. Axel sighed grumpily and came out from the bookshelf he had been standing behind.
"Zexion" Axel replied. "I need you to do something for me" Zexion looked up slightly taken back from Axel's bluntness, even if he didn't show it on his face. Normally he would have started a conversation before asking for a favour. Zexion looked back at his book and flicked a page before his answered.
"That would all depend on what you want" Axel crossed his arms over his chest "I need you to help me to find Charlie and Amaya" said Axel as he rubbed his temples with his fingers. "And how do I do that?" questioned Zexion, his eyes still glued to the book.
"You know that super sniffing sense that you have?" Zexion raised an eyebrow at his question. There was silence for a few minutes before Axel burst out in frustration.
"Do I HAVE to spell it out for you, you sarcastic bastard!" He yelled.
"Normally to get in one's good graces you wouldn't yell at them or insult them, Number VIII" Zexion said now mildly interested.
"Well don't blame me that I'm pissed cause it's Charlies and Amayas fault that they dumped a bucket of freezing cold water on me this morning, WHILE I WAS STILL ASLEEP, and that now I want to kill them." yelled Axel "So are you gonna help me find them or will I have to hurt you with my pyromaniac skills of fire!!!"
Zexion looked up from his book. "And what will you offer me if I do help you?" He stated one eyebrow raised.
Axel placed a finger on his chin a smirk gracing his sharp features. "Well I wouldn't have to tell anyone about the time I found you in the kitchen with-"
"Fine, they're in the gym" Zexion said darkly interrupting Axel's rant. Axel smiled.
"Thanks Zexy, I owe you one" as he walked towards the door "Do not ever call me Zexy again, Number Eight, unless you want to become a very insignificant being in this castle" replied Zexion,
"Whatever Zexy" Axel stated disregarding the threat with a wave of his hand. Zexion's eye twitched with anger but when he stood up to carry out his threat his was faced with an empty library and a lot of pent up anger.
"What do you want to do now?" asked Amaya as she threw a chunk of foam up and down in the air catching it then repeating the process. "Dunno, what you wanna do??" replied Charlie from the trampoline, her hands behind her head as she stared at the ceiling.
Demyx had left about half an hour ago; after he did weights training while chatting to the girls, since he left they had just sat around and talked occasionally.
"Not a clue…" Amaya retorted dragging out her words. Charlie sighed blowing a strand of hair out of her face. Amaya threw the chunk of foam she had been previously playing with at her sister. It hit Charlie's arm but she ignored it. Amaya threw another chunk, this time it hitting her sister's leg. Yet again Charlie ignored it. She threw her third piece but Charlie grabbed it as it was about it hit her and threw it back.
"Knock it out" Charlie said blankly still staring at the ceiling. Amaya grinned evilly and pegged another chunk which hit Charlie in the fore head.
"I said, Knock it out!" Charlie said once more a little more forcefully. "No, why should…"
Heavy footsteps from the hall interrupted Amaya's sentence. Both girls froze and dived to the foam pit, burying themselves from view.
The door opened and a certain fiery red head entered. He glanced around the room a couple of times before he let out an evil sounding laugh.
"Charlie, Amaya…I know you're here…" Axel said slowly glancing once more around the room. Un-known to Axel, Amaya was having a difficult time staying quiet shut for she had intertwined her fingers together and was holding them over her mouth so to stop her re-pressed laughter from escaping.
Charlie, who was lying beside her, pinched Amaya's leg hard to stop her from giggling. "What was that for?!" yelled Amaya, as she sat up, scattering foam, and revealing her hiding place to Axel.
Charlie sat up and looked at her sister "To shut you up, now where are we gunna hid…" Charlie caught sight of Axel, who was standing in the centre of the room, a satisfied smirk playing across his face. "Gotcha" he muttered "Shit…" replied Amaya as she looked at her Uncle.
Before either of the younger red heads could react he grabbed them both by their shirt collars and lifted them out of the foam. The both struggled wildly trying to free themselves from their uncle's death grip.
"Now, kiddies, what have we learnt from this enjoyable experience??" Axel questioned walking to the edge of the freezing endurance pool and holding them above it.
"Me, me! Oh, pick me!" Amaya said raising her hand and waving it around crazily. Axel looked at her and raised an eyebrow signally that she should talk.
"Find a better hiding place?" Amaya said cheekily, grinning from ear to ear. Axel smirked evilly.
"Sorry, wrong answer!" Axel said as his grip of the girls shirts loosened. Charlie's eyes widened. "Wait, what about me? Don't I get a guess?" Charlie said thrashing her arms around to catch her uncle's attention. He sighed and once more tightening his grip.
Charlie held one finger up on the air and put on a posh voice. "Never pour cold water over Uncle Axel in the mornings," she though over her answer then added "or anytime at all?" Axel smiled slightly.
"Correct! Got it memorized?" He yelled before he dropped both of the girls into the freezing cold water. As they crashed into the water, both of the girls screamed before they disappeared underneath the surface.
Charlie and Amaya stood up seconds later, furious and freezing. "You'll regret this…" Amaya said darkly, before her Charlie pulled her into a hug and transported them to their room.
Amaya sat on her bed, a list placed in front of her along with a can of coke. She had changed clothes from her experience with the freezing pool and was now plotting revenge on Axel and the rest of the Organisation. Every now and again she would scribble down something the set back into the 'Plotting Evil' position, as her sister put it.
Charlie came out of the bathroom a towel around her shoulders keeping her hair from dripping on her new shirt.
"Came up with anything good?" Charlie asked. Amaya looked up.
"Well, there is one that includes burning down the building and flooding Axel's room at the same time…but that might not work" Amaya trailed off taking a sip of Coke.
"How 'bout pranks?" The slightly older red head questioned, sitting on her bed, folding her long legs underneath her.
"They're ready to go… We've just got to set them up" Amaya answered.
"Well, we should try to pull them off when Xemnas isn't here, but we can ask Axel or Roxas about that" said Charlie "'cause Uncle Axel did warn us to not piss him off, so that would be the best idea."
"Okay then we're gonna need supplies…and lots of them." Amaya stated getting down from her place on the top bunk.
"Time to go shopping…" Charlie said happily, a smirk setting it's self over her face.
Well, that's about it for now, so tell us what you think. So IF you review you'll get sea-salt ice-cream! So review Dammit! throws pebbles at you please?

"Your...going out with Riku? As in the silver haired guy that wore a blindfold?"
