NOW TO THE LAMENESS THAT IS FILLERRR.
"Sir, surely you can't be serious!"
"Did I stutter, Leon? You need a vacation. Take one." Piercing golden eyes held slate and Lean diverted his gaze from his Alpha's. Saix stood but feet away, watching his second in command precariously. His face remained stoic though, as it normally was.
"Yes sir," Leon muttered, the hair on his neck standing up in a rigid angry manner, that of a wolf one could assume, and he ran a hand through it as he took a step backwards, dipping his head respectfully to his Alpha, "I'll stay on call. Call me if you need anything," He added before turning to leave.
"Leon," He paused and glanced back over his shoulder at the blue haired man standing regally on the other side of the room, "Do not stress yourself to this extent again, you are no help to me if you're constantly paranoid."
The brunette werewolf clenched his teeth, a reaction most weres would have to hearing their leader point them out as weak; but he knew the Alpha was right. These days he was constantly looking over his shoulder, which in every sense he should do, because there were plenty of people after him, but he needed to trust his strengths as Saix did. Very few people could put up a good fight for the werewolf Beta, and even fewer would be able to actually beat him. In fact, if it wasn't for Saix having the almost fabled berserker trait rarely found in werewolves, Leon would probably be the Alpha. He released the pressure on his jaw and turned towards the door again, "Of course, sir."
Despite the obvious tension between the two, Leon and Saix were actually good friends. They had both known each other since they were pups and had grown up together. They trained together and talked with each other on important subjects, like the war on hand. Sometimes though, Saix had to change to the position of leader instead of the position of friend.
Stepping out of the office he sighed, waiting for the click of the door behind him, knowing as soon as it sounded he would be attacked. Attacked by what? Well- Click.
"Told you," The voice was clear, and firm, but quiet and rather monotone, "You've been overworking yourself again."
Slate eyes lifted to the couches in the rather large room and focused on the smaller form, "What do you care if I want to do my job?" he snarled back, taking on the offensive.
Blue eyes gazed back calmly and the figure closed the book in his lap in favor of standing up, straightening out his gray turtleneck, "This is what he means. You keep snapping at everyone."
Leon blinked for a moment before relaxing his posture and sighed, looking away, "Apologies, Zexion. I shouldn't have overreacted," he murmured, the voice of a disappointed soul.
Zexion smiled lightly, and took another few steps forward to look up to Leon who was rather slouched and looking down at him. Zexion, being five foot five, and Leon, six inches taller, had quite a difference in height; but no one ever made a height requirement for being a werewolf, "No worries, just promise that you'll actually take time off and not just sneak off to do undercover work or something. I'll come hunt you down myself."
The corner of the brunette's mouth lifted a bit and he lifted a hand to the other's shoulder, the shorter mirroring the motion, a show of friendship common for werewolves, "Alright then. I suppose I have no choice, or evoke the wrath of a werewolf warlock."
Zexion chuckled and pulled his hand away, Leon following suit, before flicking his head to the side to unveil his second eye, normally hidden by a sweep of silver hair. Leon's eyes lifted and he made sure to straighten up as another werewolf padded into the room, spotted both the Beta and the Advisor of the pack. He paused in his steps before shifting and bowing his head politely before continuing his path across the room and exiting just as silently as he had come in.
Zexion sighed as he finally caught what held Leon's eye before turning back to him, "Come on," He muttered before turning around and stepping towards the front of the house, as if to leave.
Leon lifted a brow but followed after the other nevertheless. Like Saix, Leon had grown up around Zexion, but unlike their Alpha, Zexion was not a berserker, and limits placed around the brunette seeing Saix were not placed around Zexion, making the two rather close. "And just where are we going?" he questioned.
"There's a bar in the city, I thought you'd like to start your relaxation with a friend," He replied simply, grabbing his black, sleeveless coat from the chair he was on earlier and slipping it on.
Zexion suddenly paused and closed his eyes, sniffing the air precariously; he turned around, blue eyes shifting open to land on a dark figure across the room.
"Where're you two off to?"
About a hundred miles away, in the city of Hollow Bastian, several people gasped and leapt away from the two figures in the dark alleyway. Dressed rather normally, the two men normally fit in quite well, until it was they hissed and flashed their true eye color; something the pair loved to do. Of course, normally around small groups, so that no one would believe them. In general, vampires were known of by the human race, although very few actually believed they existed; what would a few more matter?
Riku looked towards Axel, "Come on, leave the mortals alone," He muttered, shoving his hands in his pockets before couching subtly and leaping easily onto a nearby rooftop.
Axel growled lowly at him as he took one last look at the humans, before crouching and springing backwards, to flip neatly between the two buildings and out of sight after his partner-in-crime, "You're always ruining my fun," the redhead muttered, jogging across the roof to walk next to the other.
Riku rolled his eyes but smiled nonetheless, "Didn't you just eat yesterday?"
A flash of teeth and Axel laughed, drawing his tongue across them, "I did."
Riku chuckled, "You're insatiable."
"If I knew what that meant would I be offended?"
"No."
"Well, alright then."
Another chuckled from the silver haired vampire and he shook his head.
Axel smirked and crossed his arms behind his head as they walked along, his green eyes suddenly lighting up and he dropped his arms, turning to Riku, "Hey, race you to the mansion."
Riku's smile turned into a smirk and he didn't even wait for Axel before leaping into action, the extra speed provided by being a vampire being put to use as they sped across and leapt between buildings.
Panting, Riku slumped down on the couch of the room the two shared; being a couple, the two shared almost everything. No, not a couple like that. Vampires are incredibly social creatures, although not normally with those of the same gender, and most had partners – friends occasionally – that they almost never left. They would sleep, eat, and fight together. Riku and Axel were an example of this kind of relationship.
Axel, breathing a bit faster because he was a bit more excitable then the other, laughed heartily as he crossed the room and fell onto the loveseat, face buried in its pillows.
Blue eyes glided across the room to fall upon him and Riku sighed, "So," he started, making sure to pause and wait for Axel to turn his face to meet his gaze, which he did, "what of you and this blonde kid?"
Axel blinked for a second before rolling unconventionally onto the floor and staying there, "I'm afraid I don't know what you are talking about, dearest Riku-kun."
Riku snorted lightly, "We only went to Japan for twenty five years and you're still calling me that…" he stated, and Axel just smiled from his position from the floor, "But seriously, that Roxas kid from the meeting, what's going on?"
The redhead pushed himself up onto his elbows, his eyes barely breaching the top of the table to look back at Riku, "Why do you care?"
The silver-haired lifted a brow and he smirked, "He must be special, you never hesitated telling me about your past escapades with humans," He replied simply.
It was true though, and Axel mentally smacked himself for not continuing playing dumb. Mind working quickly, he sat up further, "Oh, really? Well, what about you and that cute little brunette?"
Riku, by far the much harder to read of the two, shrugged, "Not much, we were just talking about how annoying and arrogant you are."
Axel scoffed, "You must have gotten along just peachy."
"We did. I have his cell number."
The redhead did a double take for a moment, "Seriously? You were only talking for like… three minutes."
Riku just nodded and leaned back more comfortably into the couch, "Yeah, since we're gonna be posted here for a few years I decided we could use some friends for our downtime." His expression turned back to its normal stoic, solemn appearance.
Axel didn't respond, instead slumping back down to the ground and the room was quiet.
"AXEL."
Axel screamed; green eyes wide as he sat up quickly, "Sir!"
Across the room, piercing copper eyes scrutinized the vampire precariously and the Superior stepped into the room, "Get off the floor."
Axel sighed and got off the floor, scratching his head through his mane of hair. Any other vampire would have had a near heart attack just from the Superior addressing them by their given name, but Riku and Axel were far too used to it by now.
The reason? Well, it was quite simple really. They were Xemnas' only turned. Most other royal vampires had many turned to show their strength, but the Superior hadn't bothered with the deal in over three hundred years. Riku and Axel were the closest thing to children he had; although they weren't really treated any differently. Occasionally like spoiled kids, but otherwise just like every other vampire expected to do their duty.
Xemnas fiddled with his ancient, steel pocket watch. It was very rare that the Superior seemed anxious, "The meeting, how was it?"
Axel shrugged, "They sent us Orderlings, so it wasn't too hard to get their opinion changed, but Leon was a bit more-"
"Leon was sent?" Xemnas interrupted. His eyes flickered away in a calculating manner, "Saix must be very displeased…"
The redhead shrugged, "He's probably just PMSing or something, I mean…" he quickly shushed himself as Xemnas turned his gaze back to him, daring him to finish the sentence, "Eh, heh… never mind."
Xemnas didn't say anything for another few moments, keeping his glare on Axel. Riku glanced over at the Superior with the sudden silence and couldn't really tell if he was holding the silent glare just to watch Axel fidget or if he was just thinking harder than normal.
Luckily for Axel, who was practically having a panic attack on the other side of the room, Xemnas lifted his gaze a moment later and waved his hand as he turned around and muttered, "Very well, carry on," before leaving the room.
Axel's wide eyes flickered to Riku before his knees gave out and he fell over.
surprisingly, this chapter was really fun to write, and I hope that even if it was short you enjoyed it.
okay, first, lemme clear this up ;; a few people were very confused about what the hell Xigbar and Demyx were, so here I am to explain. I originally wanted Demmy and Xiggy to be the same breed, but that was no fun. so I started some searching on wikipedia of all places and came up with their breeds. I didn't do that much research, so you can punch me if you go and look and I got something wrong. I really don't care though. Demyx isn't a fighter, so he was something less… rowdy than a werewolf, a Strigoi. pronounce it how you will, I don't care. I came across Xigbar's by chance and as soon as it said "one eye" I was like "YES" and thus, Varkolak. once more, pronounce how you will. I don't care.
I'M SLOWWW ;; yes I know. I don't upload fast enough, but whatever. i'm sorry, but I can't help it. i'm very busy and writing this story takes time I don't have. i'm not done at all, just slow. /
REVIEW. THANK YOU. AND GOOD NIGHT.
