Subjects 007 and 008
Note from the author: SURPRISE! I randomly decided this story needed a second chapter! Hope you like it!
Xigbar paced the length of his room, he was suppose to go in and get more of his memories 'restored' along with his younger brother Xaldin (A/N: Serious I wonder if these two are related somehow.) but no one had come to get him. He heard the door open "About time you came for me!" Xigbar turned to see a pair of scientists walking towards him. They made a motion to follow him, Xigbar followed without a word. Normally they walked pass the other rooms then turned right and headed to the lab, oddly though they walked right pass the lab and continued down the hall "Hey what's the big idea?" he shouted
"Shut up!" one of the scientists (obviously sleep deprived) snapped. Grumbling the rest of the way there Xigbar was lead to a cafeteria of some sort. Having his anklet removed they shoved him in "Consider this a free hour." The scientist told him, Xigbar looked about. The other eleven subjects were standing around looking very confused; Xigbar spotted his younger brother talking with a blond haired man with blue eyes. Xigbar frowned; normally he would have taken great pleasure in this but something just didn't seem right
"What are you up to?" he wondered quietly to himself.
The scientists gather in a viewing area above the cafeteria, they glanced at their boss. Their boss clicked a few things having a couple of TV monitors light up with images of what was going on in the room below "Let's see how they react." The man muttered.
"Wonder what's going on in their heads?" Axel wondered attempting to make conversation with Saix, Saix ignored the male going back to the newspaper he managed to find. It was pretty old considering that the news mainly was going over that the strange disease was taking over along with various tips on killing the infected if they got too close to you. But it was something to read, Axel yanked the paper away "Hey I asked you a question!" he grinned at the male's surprised face. Saix turned away from Axel
"I know I choose not to talk with you." He told the male looking at the wall, they were white but he really didn't want to talk with the very flirty male. Axel huffed; he decided to bug someone else. He spotted a boy with blond spiky hair and blue eyes not to far away.
Prancing over to the boy he grinned "Hey there! Name is Axel, got it memorized?" he asked, the boy just sort of looked at him
"Roxas. Please go away I'm not feeling so hot." He muttered. It was true, his head felt really heavy and his stomach hurt. Axel continued to try and make conversation with the boy while Saix noticed a pink haired male looking out the window; he was gripping onto the hand of another guy with long blond hair and green eyes. The blond haired man squeezed the pink haired male's hand softly
"What's wrong Marluxia?" he asked, the male looked at the blond with concern in his blue eyes
"Something doesn't feel right Vexen." He whispered. Saix glanced at Axel for a moment 'At he isn't the only one…' he thought. Roxas let out a pained groan, Axel looked at him
"Hey you okay?" he asked, Roxas shook his head and let out another groan. He leaned over and vomited up the contents of his stomach "Whoa! Hey anyone good with first aid?" Axel called, the group turned their attention to the young blond who had finished throwing up. The blond's eyes rolled into the back of his head as he fell forward landing hard on his side
"Holy crap!" Marluxia yelped. Everyone rushed over to see what was wrong with the boy, Vexen kneeled down checking the pulse. He frowned
"He's dead." He informed the group.
The scientist again looked to their boss, their boss stroked his chin "Let's see how they react." He muttered.
Everyone moved to the opposite side of the room talking to each other, there was a soft moan from the boy. Looking over the group soon became panicked; the 'dead' boy was now standing up looking around. His head snapped towards the scent of living flesh, he snarled. There was a scream before the boy ran at them full speed growling and drooling at the mouth "HOLY SHIT!" Xigbar yelled looking for something to fight with. The boy was on them fast clawing at the group who had slid under a table to hide from the boy. Axel ran for a table but slipped landing on his stomach, he knocked the wind out of him, the boy turned looking at him for a brief moment before running towards him
"Oh shit!" Axel yelled scrambling to his feet running towards the door. Making it to the door he banged on it "OPEN UP! HELP! ZOMBIE!" he yelled, no response. Roxas was on him fast screaming and launching at him. Axel covered his face to avoid damage when there was a sickening crack and bang. The zombie tumbled to the ground as a panicked Saix slammed the lid to a garbage can on the thing's head until he was sure it was dead.
Both men panted for a while before looking at each other "Thanks." Axel wheezed, Saix nodded weakly. The rest of the group crawled out from under the tables and walked over to the bloody scene. The group discussed various things: how long had to boy been infected, why didn't anyone come in to help them, and why a garbage can lid? Once Vexen and another male named Lexaeus dragged the body into a nearby trash can the group attempted to open the doors. After an hour the scientists came back, the group all began asking questions. It was a while later before one scientist held up a hand, the group hushed quickly
"What happened to subject thirteen?" one asked, Vexen frowned
"He became an infected and we killed him. His body is in the trash over there." He told him and pointed over to the can. The scientist nodded
"Very well." He pulled out a gun and shot Vexen through the head
"VEXEN!" Marluxia cried running over to the now dead man "WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT FOR?" he yelled, the scientist looked at Marluxia and shot him as well. The man's body falling on top of Vexen's.
The group slowly back away "What's going on?" Zexion cried, the scientist looked at them
"You are all infected." He informed them, Xaldin shook his head
"That's impossible! He haven't turned yet!" he yelped. The scientist raised the gun again
"You are what we've been calling a carrier. Someone with the disease but haven't changed yet." The group looked at one another, they all were infected? "As you saw the moment you die the infection takes over and you will become one. Roxas has been feeling ill and it seems if you get sick then you will pass on. Now we can't have a bunch of zombies running around." He said aiming the gun at Zexion.
Axel cleared his throat "Might I make a suggestion?" he asked, the group looked at him "We…RUN!" he yelled taking off towards the now open door. The group was quick to follow
"After them! We have orders to murder them!" the scientist yelled, there was a hiss. Turning around the group of scientists gasped, Marluxia was up. The bullet must not have killed him, his eyes looked at the scientist he screamed and ran. Once he was a little closure he leapt and bite down on one of the scientists, Vexen was up shortly afterwards pinning a scientist to the wall tearing at his flesh.
The group of carriers mean while ran as fast as their legs could carry them towards a emergency exit towards the back of the building, the whole way scientists kept shooting at them barely missing them. Half way there Zexion got shot in the leg, the group looked at him stopping for a brief moment "Go on without me!" he yelled knowing his time was up. Lexaeus shook his head scooping up the much smaller man into his arms
"Your coming with us whether you like it or not." He told him, they again sprinted for the closest door that leads outside. Once again they were stopped when Xigbar made a motion to follow him somewhere; quickly following the male the group was lead to what seemed like a large room full of various objects.
Xigbar grinned picking up his two pistols that they took from him when he first had been dragged here "This is where they hide the good stuff including extra weapons." He announced. Xaldin looked at him funny
"How do you know about this place?" he asked, Xigbar put on his sweetest smile
"I may or may not have stolen the blueprints to the building once." He told his younger brother. Xaldin rolled his eyes
"Of course." But he was glad to have his shot gun back in his hands.
Once they had retrieved their weapons (expect Axel who stole one) the group headed back out into the hallways. Glancing around the group cautiously walked towards the exit
"I wonder where everyone one else is?" a boy named Demyx asked, Xigbar shrugged
"Probably trying to figure out where we are with out the tracking devices." He told the boy. Zexion laughed
"Kind of pointless since we were never let out of the rooms!" he chuckled cradling his rifle in his arms along with Lexaeus's shot gun.
It didn't take long for the group to hear a pained moan, looking the group was surprised to see Marluxia wandering the halls
"HEY MARLUXIA!" Axel called, Marluxia snapped his head in their direction and scream "Shit! He's a zombie!" Axel cried. Saix rolled his eyes
"No shit Sherlock!" he yelled raising his gun to fire at the beast. Marluxia ran towards Lexaeus since he was the biggest, Zexion made a motion to be put down. Leaning some of his weight on the wall he waved to the group
"Go ahead! I'll hold them off!" he yelled, he wouldn't be much help anyways. The group hesitantly nodded and left. Lexaeus stayed behind "Get going!" Zexion ordered. Lexaeus grinned
"I'm not going down without a fight, besides…" he smiled stroking the boy's head "I like you too much to leave you behind." He told him raising his gun.
The group sprinted down the hallways panting and gasping for breath "How much farther till this stupid door!" Luxord cried, Xigbar grinned
"Not much!" he announced, there was a loud growled. The group turned and was quiet surprised to see Vexen wandering the halls, they knew better than to call to him this time. The blond was covered in blood and bits of flesh hung around his mouth, Vexen looked at them for a briefest of moments before charging at them screaming. Everyone yelped and decided to save ammo by running, but for some reason Xigbar couldn't get his legs to move. Managing to snatch a broom nearby Xigbar held it in front of his face screaming as Vexen bit down on the broom clawing at his face. "Bad Vexen bad!" he scolded. Vexen used some of his weight to push the other down towards the ground
"Xigbar!" Xaldin cried. Xigbar did the first thing that came into his mind; he kicked the man where the sun don't shine.
The zombie gave a light squeak before falling over onto his side stunned; Xigbar sprinted to catch up with the group. Axel gave a light chuckle
"Heh, didn't know that still worked." He laughed. Saix sighed
"How did you survive for this long?" he wondered. Axel grinned and purposely slapped Saix's rear making him squeak loudly
"By my wits and good looks!" he cheered. Xaldin snickered
"Well we know who he likes." He whispered to Luxord. Demyx blinked not getting the gesture so he did it to the closest person to him; Xigbar. Xigbar yelped and looked at the boy
"Um aren't you a little young to like a guy like me like that?" he asked. Demyx blinked and seemed utterly confused.
It didn't take much longer to make it to the exit, all the men had to stop since they were wheezing and trying to take in air. Leaning against the door Xaldin gasped for air he looked outside, the outside world was bound to be like a living nightmare. Saix looked at Axel who was looking at him
"Um hey Saix?" he asked, Saix raised an eyebrow "How come you keep saving me?" he asked. Saix shrugged
"Why did you try to save me from that huge zombie when we first met?" he retorted. Axel grinned and leaned forward pressing his lips to Saix's in one hell of a passionate kiss. Saix's eyes went big, when Axel departed he grinned at the surprised male
"Because remember, one your hot and two I don't like the idea of losing you." He told him with a smirk on his lips he pressed their lips back together.
The End
A Moment from the Author's Life:
KRKCxForever laughed at herself for a moment before sending the story off to fanfiction "Wow, playing zombie games sure does inspire strange things!" she laughed and began jotting down ideas for her next story.
Like the story it review and let me know! See where I could have done better? Write a review! Want to flame the story for my really shitty Axel (any tips please leave a review) or how this didn't seem to be much of a AkuxSaix thing? Don't do it here!
