Jessica's Point of View
Today is my birthday, but instead of celebrating at the castle like I normally do for my birthday, the Organization went out for a picnic in Neverland. It's the perfect place for a picnic.
"Hey Saix, why aren't there any girls besides me in the Organization?" I asked after finishing my sandwich. "Ask Lord Xemnas." Saix replied. "Is it classified?" I wondered. "It's not that. I just don't know the answer." Saix replied. "But I thought you know everything!" I gasped. "Not everything." He chuckled. "Jessica, come here!" Xaldin called from the edge of a cliff. "Coming!" I replied, running next to him. He pointed to a butterfly that was flying nearby.
"Do you remember what that butterfly is called?" He quizzed. This one's easy. I've only learned about one orange and black butterfly so far.
"The monarch butterfly." I replied proudly. "And do you remember it's scientific name?" He questioned. I frowned. I know this one... wait, no I don't. He chuckled a little.
"It's Danaus plexippus. Remember that." He answered. Xaldin is always trying to teach me things. He's the closest thing I have to a teacher, which is good because I remember hating school in my previous life. Others tried, but failed to teach me. Daddy was too confusing, Xemnas didn't want my time with him to be about education, Xigbar was too annoying, Lexaeus didn't want to, Zexion was too young, Saix didn't have enough time, and Axel was too lazy. Xaldin was the only one left, and he does a pretty good job, even if we don't have much time between my missions and my trips with Xemnas. At least once a week he makes me stay up after Xemnas and I get back and learn stuff. In those times, he does his best to teach me, so I do my best to learn. I also do my best to remember the things I learn because when I'm on missions with him he'll quiz me and if I do good he'll get me stuff.
"Say, how do you know so much?" I asked. "I live with your father. How can I not." He laughed. "I don't understand half of what Daddy says when he's talking about science and math and stuff like that." I sighed. "Well, I knew him before he learned a lot of things, and when he had learned something new, he would tell me about it, so I can understand him better than you." Xaldin explained. "Hey, you talking about Vexen? I don't know how you can understand anything when he's talking science. It's all gibberish to me." Xigbar said, now not too far from where we were. When did he get so close?
"Do you need something Xigbar?" Xaldin questioned. "Xemnas just wants me to tell you guys to back away from the edge of the cliff. It would be a shame if someone like me were to come along and push bun head off. Or she could simply just fall, but being pushed would be way more dramatic." Xigbar smirked. "Fine. I'll back away." I groaned taking a few steps away. "Are you happy now?" I huffed. "Hey, it wasn't me who ordered it. Like I said, I wanted to push you off the cliff. Of course Mr. I Can Control Wind would save you, so it's not like it would matter." Xigbar teased. "That joke went to far." Xaldin seethed. "Fine. I'll apologize since it's her birthday. I'm sorry bun head." He laughed. "Yeah, sure you are." I huffed, punching him. I can get away with punching him because I'm Xemnas' favorite and because Xigbar annoys everyone in the Organization. More the second reason than the first, but it certainly doesn't hurt. I run back over to Xemnas.
"Oh, you're back." Xemnas said. "Did you really make Xigbar tell me to leave that cliff over there?" I asked. "Yes, but only because he was annoying me." Xemnas explained. "Gee thanks." I huffed, sitting down next to him. "By the way, something came up and I can't take you anywhere today. When we get back, you can do as you please." Xemnas mentioned. "Oh okay." I said. Maybe I'll visit Master Eraqus. That would be fun. I reached into my coat pocket and grabbed my armor necklace and looked at it. My only birthday present from Master Eraqus. Yeah, I should visit Master Eraqus tonight.
