Their Worst Fears
Chapter 10
Flowery Explosions
Marluxia tapped his fingers against the wall; he was just as nervous as the other members who had gone before him.
Come on, Marluxia, he thought to himself. Everyone else came out alive and in one piece. There's nothing to be afraid of.
Yeah right, said another part of his mind. You're not afraid for yourself but for someone else. Or something I should say.
The other part of his mind spoke up again. Oh stop scarring him. Don't worry, Marly, everything's gonna be ok.
Uh huh, sure.
Marluxia's eyes widened and his hands clenched. "Shut up, shut up! Will you shut up?!" He shouted staring at the ceiling.
Everyone looked at him. Xigbar chuckled.
"Dudes, Mar's totally gone insane from the pressure of the room! He's crazy!"
Axel did a goofy impression of Marluxia. "The voices, they're there, they're really there!"
Xigbar joined in. "They're gonna take over the world! Oh noes!" They laughed patting each other on the back.
Marluxia looked down embarrassed.
Xemnas gave Xigbar and Axel, and Marluxia a strange look and shrugged it off. "Uh, anyway, 11, you're next."
"Um, ok." Marluxia said shuffling to the entrance.
Inside he was surrounded by pink flower in a field outside. He grinned and twirled around before landing on his back and sighing in relief. Maybe the Superior had gotten it wrong; terribly wrong.
Wow, you really are the worst organization member, said the one part of his mind.
"I don't care." Marluxia said out loud.
"Hey, Marluxia!" came a voice from across the field.
Marluxia's eyes widened and he jumped up and whirled around to see who had called his name.
There, across the field, was Axel. The redhead was throwing his chakram, which was on fire, up and down. Catching it calmly.
"Axel, what are you doing?!" Marluxia yelled urgently, very frightened of what might happen to the precious flowers.
"What are you talking about? It's not like I'm gonna drop it."
"Just stop throwing it around. It's on fire."
"Wow, duh it's on fire, Marly. Did you know that my element's fire?" Axel asked in a sarcastic voice.
"I knew that," Marluxia hissed. "Just put the fire out and stop throwing it. You might hurt the flowers."
Axel's eyebrows rose. "Whoops." He said pretending to have 'accidentally' drop his flaming chakram.
"No!" Marluxia cried out as the chakram landed in the pretty, pink flowers.
Fire whirled up around Marluxia and Axel disappeared. Marluxia wept for his destroyed flowers.
Outside, the timer beeped. Xigbar stared at the screen.
"Uh, I didn't know he was that close to his flowers." He said.
"Me neither." Axel agreed.
"Well, no use wondering about it. It's time to let him out anyway." Xemnas said.
As Marluxia exited the room, Xigbar pulled Axel off to the side.
"Dude, you gotta have a look at this."
"What is it?" Axel asked already interested.
Xigbar pulled out a folded photo. On it was Marluxia standing on his large Nobody having an evil laughing fit. The photo also showed that light pink flowers had been swirling around at the time. On the white line bordering the picture on the top, Xigbar had written: No one will ever understand Marluxia… Near Marluxia's open mouth Xigbar also had written in pink: Gahaha haha! FLOWERS!
"Wow, nice, dude."
"I know, right?"
"Yeah, just don't let him see it."
"No duh."
A/n: Well, that's it for chapter 10! Hope you guys like it. Oh, and I totally forgot what I had for Larxene so I kinda need help. For Roxas, too. If you could help I'd be very grateful.
