I would just like to say that this I think might be the last chapter to this story unless I decide not to divide the next storyline from it.. And I'm sorry it's taken me so long to post this chapter... I've had it done for a while actually...

Chapter 10: Confrontations

"I don't like this plan Zexion." Demyx protested as Zexion allowed them to patch him up.

"Have you got one better?"

"No but hell Zexion you can barely see let alone walk..."

Xemnas sat on his throne gazing up at his kingdom hearts contemplating the whole mess that plagued his organization… Yes he preferred that the wretched clone be destroyed… but at the length's the peons were going to hide this creature… he sighed and closed his eyes….

Flashback….

"So you infected the beast with this Noir is that correct?"

Vexen twitched at the mention of the virus. "I figured it would be a sufficient fail-safe if the clone went rouge like my last attempt Superior…"

"And your virus this Noir will take hold eventual correct?"

"Yes Superior."

Xemnas gave the older nobody a piercing inquisitive gaze… "Why did you chose to make this clone a child?"

End of flashback…

Xemnas sighed as he opened his eyes and teleported out of the throne room.

I am such a fool to have let things get this far… Vexen thought as he bitterly threw a wrench at the protesting pipes. This was all his fault…If he hadn't caved in to his deep down need to leave his mark on the worlds… but no… it was more than that… being a parent seemed to make him feel… well happy. He could fully realize this… Working on project 94111 was a new chance to render and raise a new young life in this bleak dull world…

And then there was Zexion… The one boy he had raised from a wee lad… sticking up for both him and the innocent child he so foolishly created to die for reasons beyond his control… something that he should be doing as well….

"Damn it all!" Vexen cursed as he punched the wall next to him in a poor attempt to vent his frustration.

"Have the repairs been finished old man?" Xigbar asked as he entered the hallway.

"They have."

"Xemnas is having a bitch fit over Zexion and your pet."

"Let him bitch." Vexen mumbled as he picked up his tools. "I could really care less is that man dropped off the altar of naught right now."

"Maybe you could go and push him off. He's up there waiting for you."

"…" Vexen gave him a cold stare before entering a portal.

Vexen glared at Xemnas's back.

"Four."

"Superior."

"I have made a decision pertaining to your pet."

Zexion was sitting in his room, on his bed when Xemnas found him. The later of the two very nearly foaming at the mouth. Zexion soon found himself forcibly thrown from his perch and into the near by wall by his throat, courtesy of his Superior.

"No more games Six." Xemnas growled. "Tell me where the hell the child is or die."

"Please don't hurt him…"

Xemnas turned to see the subject in question standing behind him, tears running down his cheeks. Xemnas released Zexion who slid down the wall to hit the floor hard.

"So you are Vexen's prodigy. It's a real shame that he actually managed to crack the genome…"

"Xemnas please-"

"… I said enough of your lies!" Xemnas summoned his ether blades. Before Zexion could blink He had dispatched the heartless and the illusion that Zexion had created… He then kicked Zexion squarely in the ribs.

And the door the bathroom opened to reveal Lexaeus and a giggling Ixivio. Xemnas stared at them for a minute before glaring.

"Is this a bad time?" Lexaeus asked merely raising a brow.

"You. Had The Child. This Whole Time?" Xemnas bit out each word as he glared up at the taller nobody.

"Oh noes Zesshion!" the boy had noticed the bruises on his face. Ixivio merely brushed past Xemnas and put a hand on Zexion's face. "You're hurt…" He said before closing his eyes. Xemnas mutely watched as the boy healed Zexion's bruises with a piercing glare.

Xemnas frowned as the boy smiled and then went back to Lexaeus, who scooped the child up and retreated back into the bathroom with the click of the door.

Xemnas woke from his stupor and opened the door vehemently to meet the dark gaze of Lexaeus who merely rose a brow. "May I help you?"

"Eh…. No… Nevermind…." Xemnas said quietly before exiting and sitting down on the bed. He's like a pit bull that's adopted a kitten…

"Um… Superior?"

"Keep the wretch out of my sight. As long as it stays away from me I don't give a damn." After all it might prove useful to suit my purposes… Xemnas thought as he stood up. "Oh and Nine." Xemnas whirled around to point one of his ethereal blades an inch from 'Zexion's' nose. "If you ever pull this shit again I will kill you." Xemnas removed the blade and was gone before Demyx could blink. Axel and Zexion limbered out of the closet as Zexion disillusioned Demyx.

"That was too close…" Demyx rubbed his throat.

"Did he just-?"

"Yeah…" Zexion blinked. "I believe he just said he'd let the kid live…"

"… I don't believe it." Demyx muttered. "He has to be up to something…"

"You sure he wasn't just scared shitless of Lexeaus?" Axel purposed.

The three of them burst out laughing at this thought.
