A/N: This one took me almost an entire day to think up... Zexion was a hard one for me to understand... but when I thought about Ienzo, it all suddenly clicked to me.
Enjoy, read, and review.
"No. VI: Zexion, the Cloaked Schemer"
By Erik Larence
Darkness offers a great many things,
But it is far from generous.
How can you defeat an enemy
That hides among your allies?
How can you kill a foe
That you can't even see?
Why waste energy with battle
When you can win as well without it?
The dark gives, but also it takes.
It will erode your heart
And eventually claim it as its own,
Shunning the shell like nothing.
Was the dark worth it, I wonder?
A/N: Ienzo was Ansem the Wise's youngest apprentice who spurred him into his experiments into the darkness of the heart (for anyone who didn't bother reading the Secret Ansem's Report in Kingdom Hearts II)... Numbers 1 through 6, being Ansem's apprentices and betrayers, probably have varying degrees of affinity with darkness... Of course, darkness cost their Nobodies dearly.
