Day 4
"Vexen…?" the blue haired nobody called as he entered the semi-dark lab, "I'm here to go over those results we collected yesterday."
There came only a choked sound as an answer and Zexion furrowed his brow in confusion. Walking through a couple of the testing rooms he came upon The Chilly Academic's personal office and a strange sight.
Vexen sat with his arms hooked around his knees, shaking slightly on the floor, a crazed look in his bloodshot eyes. Which was not all together surprising really, seeing as how number four frequently suffered bouts of insanity. No, what was strange was the cacophony of other, unfamiliar sounds.
Zexion peered into the darkness that was the corners of the room, but saw nothing.
"What's going on?" he asked over the noise.
"The birds" the older man sobbed, "They won't shut up!! They've been at it since four o'clock this morning!" and haphazardly threw out his hand, sending multiple oversized ice shards hurtling into all corners of the room. The birds went silent for a moment, maybe two before starting up again, cackling as if mocking the poor mental nobody.
"Birds?" Zexion asked again, not quiet sure how the creatures had found their way into the room to begin with.
"Yes!" Vexen shouted, "Big, black birds!!" and folded into himself, succumbing to body-shaking sobs once more.
Zexion sighed, "I'll go get Xigbar"
