Seppen: Ello Readers! Ah, the long awaited, chapter nine where I get to poke a little fun at Demyx, my Nii-san.

Xaria: Do you haaave to **puppy dog eyes*

Seppen: Yes, I can't let Demyx slide, it wouldn't be fair to everyone else.

Xaria: Fiiine at least I'm a part of it, right?

Seppen: Of course, you are after all, my partner in crime!

Xaria: Hehe oh how I love this sometimes, even if it is Dem.

Seppen: Just remember, in a couple of chapters you will be the target.

Xaria: I know, that's when I won't love it...

Seppen: Would you care to do the disclaimer ro shall I do it myself?

Xaria: I can do it.

Seppen: Go for it.

Xaria: I own myself, Seppen owns Seppen but neither of us owns Kingdom Hearts!

Seppen: Good girl!

Xaria: Yay! Snickerdoodle?

Seppen: Maybe, now please enjoy!

Demyx strummed his fingers along the chords of his sitar, humming to himself as he tuned the delicate instrument. He spent several hours each day preparing his sitar; the constant battles causing the strings to loosen each mission. Demyx listened carefully, knowing that one wrong turn could cause the strings to snap and make a...

TWANG

Demyx's head turned in alarm, wondering if his imagination had brought his worse fear to life.

TWANG

"Gosh dang it, not again! How hard is it to flipping tune a sitar?" Came Seppen's voice as she walked by, a sitar in hand; several of the strings dangled on both ends after having snapped apart.

"Imouto!" Demyx cried as he ran out, snatched the sitar from her hands and began rubbing the side as if it were a baby.

"Oh, hey Nii-san, this dang sitar won't tune right," Seppen pouted.

"Let me try." Demyx replied absently as his fingers ran over what was left of the strings.

Demyx began tuning the sitar, humming to himself again as Seppen began looking around the halls, bored out of her mind now. Something small and black caught Seppen's attention and before Demyx could stop her. Seppen grabbed the sitar and bashed the end against a wall where a small spider was crawling.

"Die spider, die!" Seppen shouted, Demyx flinching with each bash.

As Seppen held the sitar up, about to swing again, Demyx grabbed the abused instrument and held it protectively in his arms.

"Don't kill bugs with your sitar!" Demyx cried.

"Arachnid." Seppen corrected.

"Huh?" Demyx muttered.

"A spider is an arachnid, not a bug or insect." Seppen explained.

"Whatever, didn't you tell me you played in instrument back in your home world?" Demyx asked, rubbing the sitar once again.

"Well, its fuzzy, but yeah, I did play an instrument." Seppen shrugged.

"Then treat this sitar with the same respect." Demyx ordered, wagging his finger in the air.

"Demyx, I was a percussionist. Sure I probably had a guitar at one point or another, but I never learned how to play it as far as I know." Seppen pointed out.

"Um, Maybe you should not use a sitar then." Demyx replied.

"Its one of my weapons, you can't just take it away." Seppen countered.

"Watch me!" Demyx replied before running off.

"Give it back Nii-san!" Seppen hollered as she chased after Demyx.

Later in the Kitchen...

"Has anyone seen Demyx?" Xaria wondered, looking from Nobody to Nobody.

"No idea, I think he was running from Seppen the last time I saw him." Roxas replied, in between bites of cereal.

"That can't end well." Axel thought out loud.

"Should I get the first-aid kit?" Xion questioned.

"Why would you need to get the first-aid kit?" Seppen pondered calmly as she entered the kitchen, grabbing an apple off the counter and taking a bite.

"What did you do to Demyx?" Xaria inquired, attempting concern.

"Bubble boy?" Seppen asked in-between bites.

"Bubble boy?" everyone else echoed.

"Yeah, I..." Seppen explained before being interrupted.

"SOMEBODY! HELP! STOP DEMYX!" Zexion screamed as he ran by the kitchen door.

Everyone crowded around the door as they waited for Demyx to come by. Not long after, Demyx came rolling down the hall in one of the large hamster ball toys.

"HOW DO YOU STOP THIS THING?" Demyx hollered as he continued to roll down the hall.

"That's what he gets for trying to steal my sitar." Seppen huffed as she grabbed another apple.

Everyone gave her a weird stare as she hopped up on the counter top.

"Where in the world did you find that?" Everyone voiced at once.

"One of the many random things in my bag from back home." Seppen answered, swinging her legs.

"I swear something fills your bags with weird stuff." Xaria muttered under her breath.

"I told you, its the gnomes; they take my stuff and put back random things." Seppen joked.

Everyone continued to give Seppen strange looks, resulting in her making a devious smile.

"Want me to put the rest of you in giant hamster ball toys too?" Seppen inquired.

"No." Everyone either shook their heads are practically yelled.

Seppen released a laugh as she hopped down from the counter top, "good because I had only had one."

"We better go help Zexion before Demyx rolls over him and makes him even shorter." Xaria pointed out.

The group of five ran out the kitchen and down the hall to find Zexion pinned against a wall in a corner and Demyx bouncing around like a pinball machine.

"How do we stop him?" Roxas wondered.

"Oh, lets play pinball! Everyone is a bumper!" Seppen hollered as she raced over to Demyx and gave him a big shove into Xaria.

Xaria was barely able to push Demyx before he could run her over, she passed him onto Axel and from there everyone began to bounce him back and forth, even Zexion who finally left the safety of the corner. Axel and Seppen teamed up and gave Demyx a big shove, sending him spinning straight towards Xaria.

"Xaria jump!" Seppen hollered as Xaria turned to notice Demyx coming towards her.

Out of surprise, Xaria jumped into the air and landed on top of Demyx. Unable to stop, Xaria was stuck running on top of Demyx, afraid of falling off and then being flattened.

"Oh great." Roxas moaned as an even more out-of-control Demyx came rolling towards everyone.

"Lexaeus!" Axel hollered.

From nowhere, the Silent hero appeared, Axe sword in hand as he stared at his 'impending doom'; Demyx rolling straight towards him. With a swift swing, Lexaeus sent Demyx sailing down the adjacent hall and caught Xaria, who had fallen off during the hit.

"Thanks Lexaeus." Xaria commented as Lexaeus placed her safely on the ground.

"Now how are we going to stop Demyx?" Xion asked.

"Dang it." Axel moaned.

"What are you five up to?" Saix wondered, appearing from nowhere; Lexaeus having already left the area.

"Oh, hey Saix." Seppen greeted innocently.

Saix narrowed his eyes at Seppen before realizing that Demyx was nowhere to be seen.

"Where is..." Saix was cut off as Demyx came rolling back out of the hallway and smacked right into Saix, running him over.

"Ouch, that has got to hurt." Axel winced.

Saix laid on the ground, unmoving except for one of his arms which seemed to be twitching for some reason. Demyx, having lost all his momentum, laid in the ball as it rested against a wall, his chest rising and sinking as he panted for breath. Without hesitation, Seppen crouched next to Saix and began poking him in the side with her stick. A growl escaped Saix's lips, resulting in Seppen backing away from Saix and then standing next to Demyx.

"Learned your lesson, Demyx?" Seppen whispered, trying not to wake Saix.

Demyx nodded his head vigorously, then stopped after he started to feel a little nauseous. With a simple thump of her stick, Seppen released the little opening on the ball and Demyx climbed out. Demyx took a few steps on the ground, leaning to the side as he was still very dizzy.

"I got you." Xaria assured Demyx as she held him up by his arm.

"I should have stuck Saix in the hamster ball." Seppen pouted to herself.

"How about we disappear before Saix wakes up." Roxas piped in.

Several nods came in reply as they each began sprinting down the hallway away from Saix, the hamster ball toy disappearing shortly afterwords.

Demyx hummed to himself as he played a few notes on his sitar. He was sitting in a relaxed position on his bed, a notebook next to his side as he wrote down a few notes – music notes of course.

"Hey Demyx!" Xaria practically hollered as she plopped down on Demyx bed.

"You didn't bring the hamster ball, did you?" Demyx asked, looking back at the hallway.

"Nah, you're safe with me." Xaria smiled.

Demyx raised an eyebrow, not completely trusting Xaria.

"Got any water?" Xaria asked.

"No." Demyx joked, handing her a water bottle from a desk drawer beside the bed.

"How many of these do you have?" Xaria questioned as she took a sip.

"Enough." Demyx grinned as he played a few more notes.

Xaria fumbled with the cap on the bottle, before it slipped out of her gloved hand and poured all over Demyx.

"Oops, I'm so sorry Demyx!" Xaria apologized.

"Its okay." Demyx said as he rose, trying vainly to wipe off the water.

"Demyx, I thought you finally stopped wetting the bed." Axel laughed, having been walking by.

"Axel, you know I didn't." Demyx retorted.

"Whatever you say water boy." Axel laughed as he left.

Demyx turned back in time to find that Xaria had slipped away only seconds before. Demyx face-palmed for having fallen for Xaria's prank.

"This means war." Demyx vowed with a grin under his breath as a sweet scent came to his nose.

Without a second thought Demyx ran to the kitchen in time to find Seppen had made a huge batch of cookies, the type currently unknown. With slow cautious movements, Demyx walked to the cookies and took a handful before stuffing them in his mouth.

"Very attractive Demyx." Xaria remarked as she walked in, picking up a cookie as well.

"Whad tybe duv coogiez ard thez?" Demyx asked with a full mouth.

"Beats me." Xaria muttered as she was about to take a bite.

"Don't eat those!" Seppen yelled, running in with her arms waving wildly.

"What's wrong with them?" Xaria asked, staring at the cookie.

"First off, they're sugar cookies..." Seppen was broken off as a goofy grin crossed Demyx's face.

Before either girl could make a move, Demyx went running out into the hall. The echoes of fragile objects hitting the ground echoed after him as Demyx began a sugar high.

"Why did you make sugar cookies!" Xaria asked in a panicked tone, rushing after Demyx with Seppen in tow.

"I wanted to bake something sweet and well, its not my fault!" Seppen defended.

"HI LARXENE!" Demyx shouted as he glomped Larxene to the floor; Seppen and Xaria just having found him.

The next second, Demyx had disappeared and Larxene slowly rose off the ground.

"What just happened?" Larxene grumbled, trying not to shout in annoyance.

"Um... er... sugar." Seppen replied, looking at the wall.

"Not again." Larxene moaned as she pinched the bridge of her nose.

"Nice anger control today, Larxene." Xaria commented.

"Marluxia kept me up all night." Larxene yawned.

Both girl looked at one another and then back at Larxene.

"Not like that!" Larxene cried defensively, waving her hands.

"Heh, didn't think so." Seppen and Xaria laughed.

"Now, back to the matter at hand!" Seppen yelled as she chased after Demyx.

As Xaria followed after, they came across several tell-tale signs of Demyx on sugar. Somehow Demyx had managed to unhinge every door he came to, managed to leave a feather trail from who-knows-what and spray painted 'Demyx wuz here' on, well everything. Xaria nearly fell over laughing as they passed Lexaeus, who's back was spray painted.

"I thought we threw out out the spray paint due to how flammable it was." Seppen thought aloud.

"Well, apparently someone was holding out." Xaria replied with a shrug.

Seppen stopped running and paused as she noticed the sudden silence, "That can't be good."

"Good puppy!" Demyx smiled as he petted the still-unconscious Saix.

"Demyx, back away from Saix now!" Seppen ordered in a whisper.

"You wanna pet the puppy?" Demyx asked, tugging on Saix's coat sleeve.

"No, now come here." Xaria ordered.

Noises erupted from another room and Demyx disappeared to investigate, leaving Seppen and Xaria with Saix.

"Um, run!" Xaria said as the two ran after Demyx.

"He is so gonna need an Advil after today," Seppen commented.

The two girls ran down each and every hall, unable to find Demyx. Finally, they found themselves back at Demyx's room. Out of the corner of their eyes, they found Demyx passed out on his bed. His TV was blaring some child's show, the remote lying next to Demyx hand.

"I have to say this is one of his least destructive sugar highs." Seppen remarked as Demyx rolled over and off the bed.

"Oof." Demyx mumbled as he rose.

"You okay Demyx?" Xaria asked as she ran over to check on him.

"My head hurts." Demyx complained as Seppen turned the TV off.

"Just stay away from my sugar cookies, okay?" Seppen smirked.

"Got it!" Demyx replied with a wry smile and a thumbs up.

"How 'bout you take a nap to relieve your headache?" Seppen suggested.

"Good idea." Demyx replied, climbing back onto his bed before passing out.

"Well, that was fast," Xaria laughed.

Later...

Demyx rose from his bed, shaking his head to relieve his bed head. He jumped off his bed, feeling better as walked out of his room. Demyx walked right into Vexen, who seemed to be chillier than usual, if that was possible.

"Hey Vexen." Demyx greeted cheerily.

"Demyx." Vexen greeted as he continued walking, hitting a wall once or twice.

"Must have had a bad experiment again." Demyx guessed.

As Demyx progressed through the halls, he came across some of the other members. Seppen and Axel were thumb wrestling, but they seemed to be moving awkwardly. Zexion was standing near Larxene, unusual since they never got along. Larxene was fidgeting, her movements were in shorts bursts.

"Calm. Down. Just. Relax. And. You. Will. Stop. Short. Circuiting." Zexion said in a peculiar manner.

"Sup Zexion." Demyx grinned, smacking Zexion in the back.

Suddenly, Demyx felt a shock-wave of electricity as it flowed through Larxene and then Zexion. Demyx collapsed onto the ground, waving his hand as it not only had gone numb from the shock, but as well from how hard Zexion's back was.

"Sorry. Demyx. Still. A. Few. Glitches." Zexion replied.

"Glitches?" Demyx wondered, utterly confused.

"While you were unconscious, Vexen found out you had some disease apparently from those cookies." Seppen explained, "I think he said it was Celiac disease, something highly contagious and possible deadly."

"How. Did. You. Get. Yours. To. Talk. Like. That?" Zexion questioned.

"I rewired a few things." Seppen shrugged, her movements still a little awkward, though.

"Rewired?" Demyx repeated.

"You have to be quarantined, so in order to assure you don't get bore we made robots." Xaria replied, walking in.

Xaria stopped next to Seppen and the seemed to twitch a little.

"Of course, Larxene is having trouble because she shocked her robot." Axel explained.

"N-n-not m-my f-f-fault!" Larxene stuttered.

Seppen whacked Zexion and Larxene with her stick, which was now metal.

"What was that for?" Zexion complained.

"All better." Seppen grinned.

"Weird." Demyx muttered, poking Zexion again.

"Stop that!" Zexion grumbled, his eyes glowing red for a moment.

"Meep," Demyx muttered as he backed away.

Larxene looked at Demyx, a devious grin spreading mechanical over her lips as her head tilted to the side.

"It's alive!" Seppen hollered, a similar grin spreading on her lips.

"Five minutes in and these things are already evil." Demyx thought as he turned and ran.

"Come back Demyx! I just want a hug!" Xaria called evilly, as she ran after him.

"Not again!" Demyx hollered as he ran down the halls.

Without thinking, Demyx dove into Marluxia's room and slammed the door shut.

"When in doubt, revert to cue cards!" Demyx thought as he pulled out his note-cards.

"Technophobia is the fear of technology," Demyx read, "Hey, these are vocab cards!"

Demyx began flipping through the cards, "Hydrophobia- Fear of water or of rabies, Anthrophobia or Anthophobia the fear of flowers, Lutraphobia the fear of otters, Logophobia the fear of words, etc."

"Now I think I have that last one." Demyx moaned as he grabbed his head.

"Knock knock, anyone here?" Seppen called into Marluxia's room.

"No one is here!" Demyx hollered back.

"Hey Demyx." Seppen smiled sweetly as she walked in.

"DON"T HURT ME!" Demyx shouted as he dove onto the other side of Marluxia's bed.

"Demyx what are you talking about?" Seppen asked.

"You and the other robots are trying to kill me!" Demyx shouted, throwing a pillow at Seppen.

"Demyx, the robots are gone." Seppen promised, pulling Demyx over the bed.

"There he is!" Xaria said as she walked to the door.

"Robot!" Demyx cried as he jumped over the bed again, "she has no emotion!"

"Demyx, Xaria is a Nobody like yourself, you have no emotions." Seppen explained calmly, almost motherly.

"'Oh we do too have hearts! Don't be mad...'" Demyx grinned innocently.

"Whatever, Demyx." Seppen smirked playfully as Xaria somehow jumped completely over the bed and glomped Demyx.

"We better get out of here before Marluxia finds out you were hiding in his room." Axel smirked before ushering everyone out of the room.

AN:

Seppen: And the award for longest dive/jump/glomp combo goes to Xaria! Here, have your cookie.

Xaria: Yay! Cookiiiiiie! Its a snickerdoodle... riiiight?

Seppen: Of course.

Xaria: Yay! *noms on the cookie*

Seppen: I have officially dubbed the corner in which Zexion was hiding as the 'emo corner' much to Zexion's resentment.

Xaria: Heh it fits.

Seppen: Now on to other matters; I would like to thank godly345 for their contribution to this chapter. This is becoming a regular, heh.

Xaria: Thank you for helping Seppen.

Seppen: Now, for future reference I am merely asking if anyone in the audience is against any form of cussing, due to a certain Xaria who tends to use words parallel, but not as kind as gosh and darn.

Xaria: Sorta like...

Seppen: Until further notice she with refrain from such words, if no one objects to her doing so then she will do so freely. Thought maybe more so in one-shots and other rather than this, it just depends, otherwise her chappie might contain a few.

Xaria: *grumbles*

Seppen: Don't forget to drop a review and until next time, adios!
