The knob on the door turned and...

A tall figure in a standard organization coat stood over Zexion. But then again, all of the organization members were taller then Zexion.

"Found you." said an eerie voice. The man yanked Zexion out of the closet by his coat collar.

"Please, stop! Let me go." The Schemer said as he backed up into a wall.

"No." The figure said simply.

"Why can't I create a portal? Or read your mind?"

"I took away all of your abilities." Said the stranger, in a snidely manner.

"How?"

"Oh, one night when you slept soundly in your bed, I snuck into your room. With a device that Vexen had just created. Called the 'Ability Disabler.' It took away all of your powers and locked them inside a container that I now carry."

"But.. But why? Why do this?" Zexion stammered.

"Because I knew that if I didn't, you would know who I am, what my motives were, and leave me forever. But not this time." The man started to approach the Schemer, which made Zexion very afraid of what would happen next. He looked around the lobby for anything that could be used as a weapon. Zexion picked up a glass vase and made sure to hide it behind his back until the strange got close enough.

"Zexion, why resist me? You know that in the end I always win."

"Oh really?" The Schemer said as he chucked the vase. Which hit the man right in the face. The cloaked figure sunk to the ground, out of shock. Zexion took this opportunity to bolt. Out the lobby door he went, running his little non-existent heart out. Stumbling as he ran through puddles, and dark alleyways.

For a moment The Schemer stopped. The only sound that could be heard was his own breathing. Sharp and raspy. He slid down an wall, and sat on the cold, wet ground.

"Why is this happening to me?" He cursed at the sky.

Poor Zexion sat there for what felt like hours. When he finally got up he could feel how sore and stiff his muscles really were. After all, he was not made for fighting and running. But rather for plotting and research.

He decided on walking to the beach thinking that his pursuer wouldn't expect that. Also the sound of the waves usually calmed him down.

Little did he know that his peace was about to be broken. By the enigmatic stranger following him, via roof tops.

A/N: Lol, Zexion is now a warrior princess of glass vases. XD So now that I got that out there. This chapter is on the short side. I guess it's because I was trying to get a lot more dialogue in. So let me know if I should continue.
