Me: I think I might have a sunburn on my face.

Sera: Well, being at a pool two days in a row doesn't help you.

Me: It wasn't my fault! The organizers had to pick pools with little shade on the deck and in the pool!

Sera: Whatever.

Me: …I think I like chibi you better.

Sera: You wouldn't last five seconds with her.

Me: I would so! I have an (almost) 8-year-old sister! Plus, I volunteered to take care of little magnetized brats at day camp!

Sera: Magnetized?

Me: Definition: Attracted to magnetically. Explanation: They wouldn't leave me alone in the pool for even a minute without my having to swim away. Kept holding onto my arms and back…

Sera: Oh.

Me: Since I'm bored and I've been saying the disclaimer in sort of the same way for a while now, here it is in pig latin! I on't-day own e-they aracters-chay…nevermind, that's annoying. I don't own the characters in this fic except for Sera.

When Zexion walked into the lab with 8-year-old Sera in his arms, his eyes widened. There was Vexen, one of the first six members of Organization XIII, being yelled at by Xemnas. The Cloaked Schemer wisely kept away from the older men while he listened to their 'conversation.' "What were you thinking when you gave Sera that potion!"

"I had tested the potion before! It was supposed to make her talk about her memories of the past!"

"Did you ever think that it maybe had a different effect on humans? The one's with hearts?"

"Daddy, how can a person be alive if they don't have a heart?" The curious child asked. Both of the higher-ranked Organization members whirled at the sound of the voice. 'Daddy' then put down the little girl and avoided the question as best as he could.

"Sera, I need to go for a while. Be good and listen to Xemnas here." Zexion then left the room and returned a few seconds later in his true form. Sera went to the door and became confused when she didn't see her father's form down the hall. Vexen, meanwhile, had finally gotten out of his stupor.

"This is why you came to me?"

"Where'd daddy go?" The brunette's tinny voice called out. Vexen ignored the question and picked up the child. Sera was a little scared under the cold eyes of the dirty blonde.

"She will be fine. The effects will wear off by tomorrow. In the meantime, I propose we study how her powers were at this age."

"I can make ice out of air. Watch!" She ordered and froze an empty test tube with some concentration. All eyes went to the now-frozen test tube.

Vexen thought for a while and sat the girl down on a table. Xemnas looked a little surprised. Zexion looked as emotionless as ever. "When did you learn how to make ice out of air, Sera?" The Chilly Academic asked, not even trying to use a cutesy voice.

"Um, when I was seven. It was hot, and I wanted to be cool. I turned my milk into ice cream! Mommy told me that she was very proud. I dunno how I did it." The 8-year-old explained before getting distracted by a shiny object on the table next to her. (Oooh, shiny…I'll stop now…)

"I see…" Vexen turned to Xemnas. "It wasn't such a bad thing, correct?" Xemnas halfheartedly nodded, then teleported out of the room.

"How'd he do that?" The ever-curious Sera asked. Instead of answering, Zexion started talking to Vexen.

"You do realize that she's eight years old right now."

"Eight and a HALF!" Sera corrected.

"Yes, I know that. Do continue." Vexen commented after glaring at the child.

"She will get bored of being in one place for too long with nothing to do. I recently saved her from hurting herself and a few others because she was using her powers to play with Axel and Roxas's hair."

"And?"

"Imagine the kind of trouble she can cause in the lab when she can control all four of the elements, as well as lightning and ice at this age."

Realization dawned on Vexen. He picked up the girl and shoved her into Zexion's arms. "Then you take care of her. Don't forget to write down what she does with her powers if you see her using them." Zexion glared at the older man, but the effect was lost since he had turned around to work on the replica of the Keyblade Master's friend. Sera squirmed in Number 6's arms.

"What do you want?" Zexion asked emotionlessly.

"I wanna play with Demyx." The man sighed and teleported to the lounge where Larxene and Demyx were arguing over whose fault it was that Sera got upset.

"You didn't do anything!"

"Well you didn't either! You could have went up and helped her instead of staring like a dumbass at the door!" Zexion cleared his throat. Both of them turned their heads at the sound. Demyx was startled and Larxene was just mad.

"What are you talkin' about?" Sera asked.

"Uh, nothing. Hey, you want to hear a song?" Demyx asked quickly to distract the little girl. Larxene teleported out of the room at the mention of Demyx's singing. Zexion merely sat down on the couch to be out of earshot.

"Ok!" The brunette sat down on the floor and the musician summoned his sitar. He then started playing his water clone song. Three water clones appeared around Sera. The clones looked just like Demyx, only they were all made out of only water. One of the water clones picked up the girl by the hand and twirled her around. Sera laughed aloud. When she stopped spinning, she created a couple of water clones of her own after a bit of concentration. The three small water clones looked exactly like Sera did, but were like Demyx's water clones by them being made only of water. Demyx stopped playing in his surprise. The water clones that he had created were now just puddles of water. "Why'd you stop, Demyx?" Sera asked curiously.

"When did you learn to do that?" Demyx asked, ignoring her question. The little girl shrugged.

"Just now, I guess." Sera's own water clones were now puddles of water as well. "I can do other things too. Watch!" The brunette lowered her hands to her sides. A mini-tornado formed underneath her. The wind made her rise off of the floor effortlessly. She giggled at the teenager's expression. Sera landed softly on the chair next to Demyx. "I can also make fire come out of nowhere. I can't do it now, 'cause I don't want to hurt anybody."

Demyx found himself nodding absently. "Sera, would you like to see the garden? I'm sure Marluxia would love to have you help him." Zexion suggested. He had stood up when Sera was demonstrating her powers.

"A garden? With lots and lots of flowers an' trees an' stuff?" The bluish haired man nodded. "Ok!" She jumped off of the chair and went to the seemingly one-eyed man. The little girl held his hand while saying, "I can show you another trick in the garden!" Zexion nodded again slowly and created a portal of darkness. He stepped through, pulling Sera along with him.

They ended up outside of the door to the garden. The older man opened the door slowly. The faint scents of Larxene and Marluxia came to him through the aromas of the many flowers and plants in the Graceful Assassin's garden. "Wow…" Sera whispered. She walked into the large garden, but tripped on a vine that was on the path. Larxene's scent disappeared a few seconds later. Marluxia himself walked up the path to where Sera and Zexion were.

"What are you doing here?" He asked sharply. The scythe-wielder then noticed the little girl. "And who is she?" Sera sat up where she was and brushed off the dirt that was on her face. She looked up at Marluxia.

"Why does everybody keep asking what my name is? I'm Serafina, but a lot of people call me Sera. Is this garden yours? It's very pretty." The brown haired man looked confused at her introduction. Sera, however, was paying attention to an apple in a tree that was nearby. It was high up, but that wasn't a problem for the little elementalist. She concentrated on the ground beneath her feet and made a platform of earth rise to the ripe apple. She picked it and took a large bite out of the fruit.

"Hey! I didn't say you could eat that!" Marluxia shouted. Sera only looked down from her platform.

"I'm hungry!" She shouted back, and then took another bite of apple. Zexion chuckled quietly at Marluxia's face when Sera ate the whole apple to the core, then dropped it on the ground. The branches and leaves of the tree tried to grab the girl, but she had moved away from the tree by then. The earth platform made a quick descent and the brunette girl ran to the safety of Zexion's leg to escape the plant mage's wrath. "He scares me." She whispered to the silent man. The Cloaked Schemer only created another portal of darkness and whisked Sera away to the safety of the dining room. It was dinnertime by then, so some of the members of Organization XIII were already there and eating their meal.

"Sera!" Demyx called. The 8-year-old girl turned to the source of the voice and ran to it. Zexion only sat down across from the two. Demyx made sure to order Sera's food for her (a small burger with French fries, ketchup and a glass of water).

"Guess what?" Sera asked after she had finished one half of her burger and several of her fries. Without waiting for him to answer, the brunette told Demyx about what she had done in Marluxia's garden.

"That's why he keeps giving you the evil eye every five minutes…" He muttered. Sera finished her food and water quietly. Curious, Demyx asked, "What's the matter?" Her answer was a yawn. Understanding, the Melodious Nocturne finished his own meal and led the little girl to her room.

When Demyx left her there, Sera took off the uniform that she was given and put on a large white t-shirt. She then climbed into the bed and fell asleep quickly.

Me: And that's the end of the Chibi Sera chapters.

Sera: Good.

Me: Sera will remember everything about it the next morning though.

Sera: WHAT!

Me: Yep. The Sora chapter's coming up too.

Sera: You are absolutely crazy.

Me: Is that any way to treat your creator?

Sera: Do you think I care?

Me: …Anyway, please review. I like having 13 reviews, but I looked at the status of my story…and…I have nearly 1000 hits total to this story.

Sera: Lazy Asses. Just click the review button and say something. You know who you are.
