AN/ Hola guys! Here it is, the long awaited Chapter 4! Hope you enjoy!
It was nearly unbearable. All the fluffy… cuddly… animals… Marluxia thought he was going to explode. It almost made him… feel. But it wasn't sadness or compassion that he thought he would have experienced. It was more of a pained stress. And of course, Axel went through the whole movie sobbing. How he managed to pull that off was beyond Marley. At one point (that Marley remembered to be the death of the mother deer), Axel had collapsed on the floor from lack of oxygen. That's what you get for crying so much without emotion. That tended to happen to the Organization members if they "cried" for too long.
They kinda just left him there.
He woke up after a while. Marley guessed he must have learned a little lesson because he reduced his sobs to a less obvious sniveling.
Xemnas sat still and emotionless the whole time. It was bizarre supervising this little child and/or man while watching Bambi. On Marley's top ten list of things to do, this was not one of them.
Marley scowled. Okay, so maybe top ten is an understatement.
But it wasn't like he had a choice. If Saix came back and found out that he had left, then basically all Hell would break loose. Saix, in Marley's opinion, was waaaaaay too overprotective of the Superior. And not in the cutesy little way. It was just kind of weird.
Marley groaned. "Is it over yet?" He could have sworn that he himself had ripped out about half of his hair during that movie. It was the only thing keeping him from strangling someone. "How long could a movie about a deer possibly be?"
"Ssssshh! It's not over yet!" Xemnas waved for Marluxia to quiet down. "This is my favorite part!"
"Ha ha, yeah!" Axel whooped. "The Bambi guy is running through the fire! Go fire, go!" He punched his hand in the air excitedly. "I'll bet the fire wins."
Marley scowled. "Shut up Axel. The fire isn't always better."
"Yeah, like your flowers could take on my fiery inferno."
"Be quiet, guys!" Xemnas turned towards them both. "If you're going to be poop heads, then leave the room! You're ruining the movie!"
Marley just rolled his eyes. He honestly couldn't care less about the movie.
Axel, on the other hand, found the Superior's argument amusing. "Poop heads?" He snorted. "What kind of an insult is that?"
Xemnas' eyes began to water. "Oh yeah porcupine face? Let's see you come up with something better!"
Axel narrowed his eyes. "Oh, it's on, butt munch."
"Silence, both of you!" Marley had just about had enough. "It's almost like I'm babysitting two kids."
Xemnas seated himself back down and adjusted the hood of his cloak. "You're correct, Number XI. That was out of line. I don't know what's gotten into me lately."
"You looked in the mirror lately, short stuff?" Axel smirked.
"Number VIII," Xemnas stated, his usual emotionless tone returning. "That comment was rude and unnecessary. As soon as Saix returns, you are to leave my office and head straight to your quarters. And you are to have no dinner tonight. Is that clear?"
He nodded solemnly, and then glanced at Marluxia. "Sheesh. The kid's treating me like a kid. What's our world come to?"
"Our world comes to nothing, Axel."
"Well, duh!" He rolled his eyes in mock criticism. "I was just testing you."
"Of course."
Much to Marluxia's relief, the room was silent after Axel's comment. Unfortunately, however, the silence didn't last too long.
"Oi gents!" Luxord cried, bursting into the room gleefully. "'Ow are you?"
All heads turned to him. "What in the world…" Marley muttered when he saw what Luxord was carrying. At least ten bottles of rum, beer, and assorted wines were cradled in his arms. On top of that, he was already drunk.
"Number X!" Xemnas yelped, surprised at his entrance. "What are those? Is that soda? Can I have some?"
"Sure thing, chap! Here's a first-class bottle of Blardleharble… Muzzle what'sits… uh, soda pop! Superior soda for the Superior."
"No no no!" Marley scolded. "Superior, you can't drink that."
"Why not?" Xemnas pouted.
"Because that's not soda!" Axel snickered.
"Oh yeah? Well I'm gonna drink it anyways! I'm a big boy, and I can drink whatever I want!"
"But, Superior…"
"Nyaaaah! I want it! So go away."
Marluxia stood where he was, mouth agape. That kid had some nerve, telling him off like that. It was time to get parental on this kid's actions.
AN// Okie dokie! Sorry this chapter was a bit short! Again, I really appreciate reviews! And if you see anything like misspellings and such, let me know please so I can fix them!
One more thing. Since it's nearly the 25th, I just wanted to say happy holidays! Hope you have a great time!
