Morning came too soon, I awoke to another day with no sun. It was strange, every day here was as dark as night; I felt a little nocturnal. I could remember that in my past life I lived in a much brighter world. Oh well, at least I have something to live for. For now at least.
Stepping into the large windowed room once again, Saix was there with two other long-haired members. The one on the left had a weird face that made him look a little insane. His unkept dirty blonde hair showed that he didn't wash or comb it often. The girl standing next to him had brown hair and was shifting her feet while looking down at the ground. Her face was covered by her bangs so I couldn't make it out. They quickly vanished together into the same portal after speaking with Saix.
I then confronted him, "Who were they?" I questioned out of curiosity. "No one of importance to you. Now for your mission," he replied without the slightest change in expression. "Today you will be paired with Zexion," he stated while motioning towards the man who I hadn't noticed was standing next to me. I blinked and looked up at him, I could only see one side of his face, the other half was covered by his blueish grey hair. His eyes were closed and he seemed deep in thought. He opened his eyes, but kept them directed downwards. The half of his face that I could see was gorgeous. I couldn't stop staring when his gaze then shifted to me and I turned bright red before quickly glancing away. His gaze pierced my heart in an instant. Wow.
Saix broke my train of thought, "Your destination will once again be Twilight Town. Return to the castle once you have completed your assignment." I nodded and turn to see Zexion had already opened a path. "Oh!" I then hurried to catch up with him.
We were once again beneath the bright sunset of Twilight Town. "I'm going to be teaching you how to use magic," Zexion stated without even turning to face me. I tried to face him to make eye contact but he turned his head in the opposite direction. "There," he said pointing. I looked in the same direction and noticed a heartless had appeared. "Take that one out using only your magic," he ordered, he seemed kind of bossy. Despite feeling a bit irritated, I did as he instructed and continued to follow his orders the rest of the mission.
We finished quickly and I prepared to leave when he stopped me in my tracks, "And where do you think you're going?" he asked. I was feeling a little impatient, "I'm going to RTC (Return To Castle), what does it look like?" Zexion shook his head at me in response, "But there are still plenty of heartless around. Shouldn't you clean them all up?" "But that wasn't the mission." Was this guy serious? More work? Ugh. He then pointed to another group of heartless, "Continue, I have not yet finished my lesson." He was serious. I sighed and went back to collecting hearts. When we were done, he gave me some huge lecture on how you can always go the extra mile. All I really caught was blah, blah, blah. For being so physically attractive he sure was a pain the butt.
Back at the castle I ran into Nallixos and Xyalsas, "Oh! Ixsele, good to see you again," Nallixos smiled. I smiled back at her, "Hello, I guess you guys just finished a mission as well?" Xyalsas stepped up, "Yeah. Mr. Loyalty over there made us do some dumb mission with Marluxia," she shuddered while motioning towards Saix. I guess that meant she didn't like Saix or this Marluxia person. "So how did your day go?" Nallixos asked, ignoring Xyalsas. "Oh! I was with Zexion and he was just training me a bit," I answered noticing Xyalsas's ears appeared to have perked up. "Sexy Zexy? Keh! No fair! Why does Saix hate me so damn much!" she practically shouted, kicking her the wall as hard as she could. I jumped at the thud her foot made. Nallixos continued to ignore the fuss, "Oh well that sounds fun. Zexion is a good character. I'm sure he trained you well." She smiled as I peered beyond her shoulder to see Xyalsas gnawing on a pillow she had grabbed from the sofa. "Um, I think I"m going to head back to my room now," I hesitatingly stated. "Oh, well alright. We'll see you some other time," Nallixos smiled and waved good-bye. I turned to leave and heard her turn around and stomp on Xyalsas with her boot who screamed in response. I sighed and walked down the hall to my room.
I was about to enter when I noticed the shy-looking girl from before entering a room just down the hall from mine. I thought of approaching her but she was in before I could decide. It'd be weird if I went and knocked on her door when I don't even know her. But she looked kind of sad. I don't know her, but it worried me. I wondered if she'd like Xyalsas and Nallixos. Maybe she'd look more cheerful is she had some friends. I then noticed that I was assuming way too much. For all I know she could have plenty of good friends. Maybe she's just always uncontrollably shy and sad looking like that. Whatever, I was putting too much thought into it. It wasn't really any of my business to begin with.
