Chapter Two: New
AN: Okay, so now that I have a laptop, I can write (type) more, yet until I can convince my Dad and step mom that it would be okay for me to have the internet on this, I'm stuck updating every other weekend. So! How was the first chapter? Was it good or bad? Anyway, I'm rambling, and I'm pretty sure that the reason you are reading this is because you liked the first chapter.

"I am pleased to announce that a new comrade has been chosen to wear the coat. Let us all welcome our newest member, Number Nine." Then I had realized that we had gained a new throne as well. I should have taken that into account. "Okay, Xemmy. What's his name? I need to make up a new nickname for him."
As I said that, the guy's eyes widened. I laughed "Damn it. He's got puppy-dog eyes. Hmm..." Axel glanced at me "No, he is not going to be 'Puppy' to you."
"His name is Demyx." Xemnas interrupted "And I do hope it is appropriate." I winked at him "Gotcha, Xemmy." I turned to Demyx "So, Dem-Dem or Demy or Dems?" His eyes were still wide, with no answer in them. "Augh, fine. I'll choose... Dems. It suits you a lot. Now, is there anything else you want, Xemmy? I was hoping that this wasn't going to take long."
"Be quiet." Saïx growled. "Shut up Sai. Yeah, I said that. What are you going to do now, huh? You can't hurt me in any way shape or form." He knew I was right "Superior?" Xemnas just let out a long sigh "Just leave it right now, Seven. And no, this meeting is not over yet. We still have to address some important issues. First off, we are low on funds, which means that we need more munny. So, work harder.
"Now, for the second issue, I will be setting up a chore list that indicates when one of you are washing the dishes or sweeping the floors or doing the shopping. Now you are dismissed." Finally, he's finished blabbering.
I took this opportunity to confront the new kid "Hey Dems! So... what is your power? Everyone else has a power of some sort. Even Xemmy has a power... although it is over nothingness itself. Come on, you can tell me. I won't make fun of it. I mean, come on, if I have power over light, then yours can't be worse than mine."
He looked at me "Alright, I have power over water. There, I said it. Now please leave me alone." Wow "Hey, why are you so grumpy? Ah well, too bad. See ya around!" I yelled as I left to find Crazy. Can you guess where he was? If you said my room, you got it.
"Axel, this is my room and you can't just come in and make yourself at home." He smiled at me" Of course I can! Remember, we're best friends. We don't need an invitation. So, what took you so long to get out of the boring room?"
I smiled "Just asked Dems what his power is. You won't like it, though." He gave me a questioning look. I sighed "It is... Water." He just looked into space for a few seconds, then said oh. "Don't worry. He seemed like a real downer, so he probably won't bother you, or me for that matter.
"So, Axel. What mission are you doing today? I've got the usual, heart collection. Blegh, I wish that someone else could do it. Anyway, I'm leaving with Emo Boy soon." He glanced at me "Where are you heading to? Because I'm going to Twilight Town. Most boring place in all the worlds."
That brought a smile to face "What do you know! That is where I am going too! Let's double up! He's the most pathetic fighter of us all." He nodded "Too true. Anyway, let's get going."
We left to go to the Grey Area, and ran into one of my favourite people, Xigbar. "Hey Xiggy! How are you doing?" He glanced at my direction "Eh, not bad. It would be nice if X-face would stop giving me stupid missions. Can you believe it, I have to take care of the newbie!"
"Well, ditch him." I offered. "As if. If I do that, who knows what Xemnas will do to me." And he walked away.
Axel and I continued our walk until we arrived in the Grey Area. I went over to Zexion, as Axel went over to Saïx. I could hear him talking "Come on Saïx! Why did you set up Dice and Zexion to go to Twilight Town, knowing I would also be going?"
"Because, Eight. She needs to collect hearts, while you deal with a giant Pureblood." Axel had an idea though "So? She is fully capable of getting hearts by herself! Put Zexion with me. Or, better yet, team us up! It will go more faster and more efficiently. You know it will. Please?"
Saïx looked over at me watching them "Fine. Just this once." And with that, Axel returned to me. I smiled and told Zexion about the new arrangements, which he only nodded. "Are we all set?" Axel asked. I nodded and so did Zexion.
So, even though I hate them with a passion, I opened a Dark Corridor and stepped through.
