Chapter 9 the Breakout in the Cafeteria
It was a normal day in the world that never was, everyone got their missions and was having breakfast. Of course, most of the children was receiving group training missions, lead by one of their superiors of course, this time it was Lexaeus who would be giving them their training this time. It was easy to tell the children from the superiors, for Organization XIII wore a black coat that varied in size and style, where as their children wore something similar but it was white.
"Man, why Lexaeus?" asked Lauren, "why he's more boring than Zexion. Why couldn't it have been Axel?"
"Axel has that mission in Halloween Town," said Rose.
"That's not fair," said Maxia, "our superiors get to go to fun worlds and the only world we go is Twilight Town."
"We will eventually," said Rion.
"Hey Demyx cut it out," said Roxas, "you're bending water everywhere. Everything is going to get wet!"
"Sorry Roxas," said Demyx, "I forgot that happens when I play my sitar."
"Just make sure you bend the water away from everyone else," said Roxas.
"Sorry Rion, Roxel and Roxie," said Kairyu, "you know Demyx gets carried away."
"It's okay Kairy," said Roxel.
"Don't call me Kairy," said Kairyu, "my name is Kairyu!" and with that Kairyu went to start the training mission.
"What did I say?" asked Roxel.
"My sister is a bit annoyed about how you always call her Kairy instead of Kairyu," said Kai, "It gets on her nerves very easily."
"I don't see the problem, I mean we're similar, both our parents are our fathers after all," said Roxel.
"Just cut it out Roxel," said Rion.
"Why should I?" asked Roxel, "You're not my sister."
"Technically I am," said Rion, and with that, she left to join Kairyu for the training mission.
"Geez, this morning has been boring," said Lauren, "now what, two imperfect girls have just left this room, and this day is going to be long if I have to be stuck with you guys all day."
"What is that suppose to mean Lauren," said Rose, "why can't you just leave how they are alone. You may have a mom which most of us don't have, but it seems she doesn't care about you." And with that, Rose started to leave the room to join Kairyu and Rion
"How dare you talk about my mother that way," Lauren said.
With that, Lauren drew out her throwing knives and aimed one at Rose. Lucky for Rose, she heard it coming, with that, she drew her sword out and deflected it, and everyone saw what was happening in the cafeteria. Quickly, two Dusks separated the two girls and Saix saw what happened.
"You two should be ashamed," said Saix, "report to Xemnas' office, he would like a word with you. And the rest of you, get on with your missions."
Rose and Lauren were escorted by two Dusks to ensure there wouldn't be any harm. There, Xemnas was looking out a massive window, staring at Kingdom Hearts.
"I've already heard of what happened in the cafeteria today," said Xemnas, "and from hearing this I am displeased of what you two have done, the damage the Dusks have to clean up is your responsibility. And you are also missing your training mission today, which was on evasive maneuvers, but from hearing from Vexen, you have somewhat mastered some of it Rose, but for you Lauren, this was to be a new lesson for you which you miss out on. Remember, we may be Nobodies, but we have discipline. As for your punishments, I'll let your parents decide on it. Now, go to your training mission, or at least what time is left of it."
They arrived at the mission, when everyone had finished the mind solution puzzle and everyone began, some struggled, but the ones who did excellent were Rose, Xerenia and Xeleos. Most of them were able to evade the first but struggled the next.
In the evening, everyone was in the Grey Area for dinner since the cafeteria was still being repaired. Of course it was Xaldin's cooking tonight, everyone enjoyed the meal, but Rose just picked it and only taken small bites out of it.
"Rose, why aren't you eating yet?" said Vexen, "It's your favorite."
"It's just that I got in trouble because of Lauren," said Rose, "if she hadn't thrown her knife or I hadn't said what I had said, the cafeteria wouldn't be in the mess it is now. I know you're going think of a horrid punishment for me, I just know it."
"Why would I be upset," said Vexen, "after all, you're my one and only daughter. I care for you more than the other children. I do see how the incident in the cafeteria was partially your fault. But I can think of one punishment you would probably enjoy, but you have to guess it first."
"What is it?" asked Rose "Is it cleaning the labs again?"
"No, not this time," said Vexen, "I already cleaned them up with your Uncle Zexion's help. I was thinking, for you night training, I'd take you to a different world to help you master what it would be like if you were in a different world. But first you would have to finish your dinner first."
To Rose's surprise, she rarely got to go to other worlds, so quickly, she finished her dinner. Then Vexen and Rose used the Corridors of Darkness and went to the Pridelands, there, they were both lions. Soon, Rose was able to use what she learned in her night training in Marluxia's gardens, and use it as a lioness. The training was finished early, and Rose had been able to get some sleep.
In the morning, all the children of Organization XIII assumed that Rose had to clean Vexen's labs as her punishment and she went with it, and Lauren's punishment was being bound to a large wheel mounted on the walls that spun while Larxene sent bolts of lighting, at her.
