Demyx closed the door lightly behind him. He didn't want the other Organization members to notice him inside Axel's room. He was sure that Axel would not appreciate him sneaking into his room, even if they were on speaking terms. The room had lost some of its warmth due to Axel's absence. The room was a little warmer than the rest of the castle. He hurried into the bathroom. The counter was covered with different products and items that would prove useful in Demyx's plan. He grabbed a few of the bottles, opened the caps, and smelled the substances. He pulled the substances that contained the strongest scents.

"Demyx, what are you doing here?"

Demyx spun around, dropping the bottles on the floor. He recognized the cocky voice. "Axel!" Demyx hurried over to the older boy and tackled him into a rather large hug. "I thought you would be on your mission all day?"

Axel pealed Demyx off him. "I was. I just got back, its late." Axel stated smugly. "Is there a reason your stealing my things?"

Demyx looked toward the bathroom floor. All the products he once held were sprawled around the room. "Oh." He laughed and rubbed the back of his head. "Well I was planning something." He noticed Axe's small eyebrows raise in question. "I met Zexion today. I went exploring while you were gone. And he played a mean trick on me so I was going to try to play one on him."

"Your planning to out trick the master schemer? Demyx you really are hilarious." Axel walked with Demyx into the bathroom. "Take what you need, just tell me what happens. I would join in your little prank, however, I have to go talk to the superior."

"Alright, I'll see you later!" Demyx scooped the products off the floor and hurried out into the hallway. He walked to the next room, his own room. He figured if he was going to spray these substances together he ought to do it in his own bathroom. He shook the various chemicals before spraying himself. He sprayed his entire body with one product until the bottle ran empty. Then he moved on to the next bottle. Within a few minutes he emptied five bottles onto himself. His eyes watered as he took in a large breath, he then decided he was going to breath through his mouth. The first breath he took through his mouth he could have sworn that he could taste his concoction. Satisfied with his job he bounced out of the bedroom and sprinted down the hallway.

When he reached the stairwell that led into the library he grinned. Memorizing the way to the library was a huge step for Demyx, it was the only location he was able to find from his room. After tripping down the stairs, Demyx fell through the library door. The library looked the same since he left it, however, the stack of books on the round table increased in size. As he stepped closer he could hear coughing from the area behind the table. Demyx's grin increased, he knew that Zexion was unable to tell who was walking toward him. The smell emanating from him would bother anyones senses.

He crouched down, slowly making his way toward the table. The coughing increased as he continued forward. Once he reached the table he pulled his hood over his head, covering his face. There would be no possible way Zexion would be able to figure out who was in the room with him. Quickly he stood, staring at the coughing Zexion. It took everything he had in him to keep himself from laughing and giving himself away.

Zexion pinched his nose with his right hand. His small body was slumped onto the sofa in an awkward position. His stomach lay flat against the sofa, his body twisted to its side at his waist. One of his legs fell off the sofa. His eyes watered, tears were quickly wetting his boyish face. Tears also plastered the hair that covered his right eye to his face. He tried to blink away the tears, but it proved to be useless. Only three of the Organization members would try a stunt like this. Axel, Xigbar, or the new kid Demyx. He looked toward the figure standing before him. The figure was shorter than Axel. Xigbar would indeed find the situation amusing, but the man did not do more work than he was forced to do. He didn't even take his missions seriously. This left Demyx. He didn't know much about the boy, however, no other member of the organization would waste their time on trivial pranks.

"Dem...Demyx..." He coughed, unable to take in a breath. As the figure whined he knew he was correct. He tried inhaling. This only made his coughing worse.

Demyx pouted again, he had been caught. He dropped the hood to his coat so he would be able to clearly see Zexion. The Nobody looked no older than himself, if anything he looked younger. After one more coughing fit he watched Zexion's body relax on the couch. Instantly, panic went through his mind, he had killed him. Without thinking, Demyx grabbed the small body and ran for the door. He knocked the stacks of books over with Zexion's legs as he ran. The stairs proved difficult when in a hurry. Once he reached the last step he almost slid into the wall. He silently cursed the slick floors. There wasn't a single person in the hallways to ask for help. Without any other option available to him, Demyx went inside his own room.

He tossed the limp body on the bed before rushing into the shower. He figured the smell was what caused Zexion to have this reaction. At first the water made his body tense. A few moments passed, the water started to have the opposite effect on his body. He heat caused his body and mind to relax. Once the tension in his body decreased he tuned the water off. Demyx stood there starring at the wall of the shower, he didn't know what to do. He hadn't planned on Zexion reacting so strongly to his plan. He only hoped Axel would return to him soon.

Realizing he didn't bring a change of clothes into the bathroom Demyx tore a towel off the rack next to the shower. He sloppily wrapped the towel around his waist, shivering as he newly wet body met with the cold air of the castle. At that moment he wished he was next door, in the warm comfort that was Axel's room. His bare feet slid across the floor, skidding to a stop as he reached the area where the bathroom door should have stood in his way. Realizing he had forgotten to close the bathroom door he blushed. The heat that should have been used to warm his body was rushing to his cheeks. Luckily there was no one conscious in the room except himself.

The closet was conveniently located next to the bathroom. Demyx tiptoed over, hunching his back slightly as he did so. He grabbed his Organization pants and coat, and a light blue tank top. He tiptoes back into the bathroom, this time making sure he closed the door behind him. After about tripping over is pants on the wet floor, Demyx managed to get himself clothed and managed to style his hair. Once he was sure his hair was perfect, Demyx scuffed out of the room, the bottom of his black pants had absorbed some water from the bathroom floor. He was about to walk toward Zexion to check on him when he heard a portal open in his room. He looked over to see a very bored looking Axel step out.

Axel yawned, stretching his arms out to each side. He wanted to portal to his own room to get some sleep, however, it seemed he was too tired to navigate himself. When he noticed a sleeping Zexion laying in Demyx's bed, he no longer cursed entering in the wrong room. "Dem, what is he doing in here?" Axel blatantly asked, not hiding his dislike for the other Nobody being Demyx's bed. He glared at both Demyx and the unconscious Zexion.

"Aw man, I messed up!" Demyx cried once he saw Axel. He was completely oblivious to Axel's reaction to the other Nobody. He placed his hands on either side of his head, frustrated that he royally screwed up. "I didn't think that it would go this bad!"

Axel's anger quickly turned into concern when his attention shifted. He figured Demyx did not succeed in his plan to trick the other nobody. "Let me guess...Your plan failed."

Demyx looked at Axel, who still seemed cocky as ever. It appeared nothing could change that attitude of Axel's. "Yeah, I knew I wouldn't be able to do it...but I really wanted to. I poured all those chemicals on me and came near Zexion. He reacted really bad, before I knew it he was out like a light. Axel, can you help him?" Demyx asked, a slight pout appeared on his lips.

Axel sighed, he just couldn't say no. He walked over toward where Zexion lay. "You know, there's a price for my assistance." Axel stopped when he reached the headboard. "You'll have to spar with me tomorrow."

"Spar with you. You mean I have to fight!"

"Of course, what else did you think I meant." Axel smirked. Previously to arriving in this room he had to talk with the superior about Demyx. Xemnas wanted Axel to teach Demyx how to fight, that included finding his element as well as his weapon. "Is that a deal?" He knew Demyx wouldn't agree to fight, this was the only way he could get the boy to willingly do it.

"Alright I'll do it."

"Good." Axel turned his attention to the unconscious Zexion. "Well, Zexion...you can move now. There's no use in laying there all night." Axel slapped the boy slightly across his cheek.

Zexion opened his visible eye, glaring at Axel. "Is there a reason you felt the need to hit me?" He sat up, brushing his fingers through the hair that fell over his eye. He didn't look as though he had lost his breath, he didn't look like he had been crying. Instead, Zexion looked angry. "I did not know you were attached to the boy."

Demyx was split between feeling angry and flustered. He had been tricked again...Zexion had managed to make it appear he was having a reaction to the chemicals. He had also been conscious when Demyx was in the bathroom naked. "Why would you...how could you..."

"How could I what? Demyx if you're planning on staying in the Organization I would work on your speech." Zexion stood on his feet, his head just reaching Axel's shoulders. He was indeed the shortest Nobody in the Organization.

"You tricked me!" Demyx yelled as he clutched his hands. "I was really worried about you, I thought I had done something horrible to you!"

Zexion's gaze flickered between the angry faces of Axel and Demyx. "You have done something horrible to me Number Nine. You misjudged my powers of illusion, therefore, you have offended me." With those last words Zexion left the room with a portal leading to his own room.

Axel seriously wanted to burn that Nobody. Seeing as how Zexion is one of the few Nobodies who actually took his missions and the Organization seriously, he was one of the few the Superior favored. Even though Xemnas would decline such an accusation, Nobodies had no hearts, they cannot feel favoritism. He turned to leave, saying one last thing before exiting the room. "Tomorrow, AFTER I wake up, we'll spar."

Demyx sat on his bed, reliving the events of today in his head. The situation with Zexion had seemed so real. He had trouble believing that it was only an illusion.

Meanwhile, Zexion relaxed in his own bed. He pulled a book from one of the many bookshelves that lined his walls. He could only get a few words into the book before his attention drifted to the new member, Demyx. Usually he kept to himself, somehow this Nobody made him act differently. It wasn't as though he hated the Nobody, he couldn't because he didn't possess a heart. He would have to investigate further.
