Demyx tires to catch a cold.
I own no one here, and this story idea hit me today.
Demyx had just finished another mission, he so wanted a break. They did not mind recon but when it came to fighting, or real work it was exhausting. Besides sweat was rather icky to begin with. They had not had a day off in a week, he did not know how much longer they would last. It was not fair Saix had given them extra missions as of late. They were sitting in the lounge when Vexen walked in, giving demyx an idea.
"Hey Vexeeennnnnnn" They called.
"WHAT?" Was the growl like reply from Vexen.
"How do i get a cold?" Demyx pondered.
"Why in kingdom hearts name, do you want to know that?" Vexen scowled.
"Can nobodies even get sick?" Demyx asked like a child.
"Do you really think I have, any studies on this, much less answers?" Vexen huffed.
"Can you get one from being cold?" Demyx poked in hope.
"Of course not you dolt, you dont get colds by being cold." Vexen fumed. "You get them by being around sick people, or from a virus."
"Thanks Vexy!" They cheered hugging him one.
"Get your hands off me before I turn you into an icicle." Vexen yelled.
"Bye now!" Demyx yelped letting go of them.
"The nerve of some of them." Vexen muttered walking off.
Demyx went to his room, now how hard was it to find a sick person? What would it be like, would that mean time off for him. However he needed more information, so off to the library he went. Inside Zexion was in his usual chair, reading his lexicon.
"Hey Zexy, do you have any books about colds?" Demyx asked.
"First of all it is Zexion, and second of all why do you want to know that." Zexion spoke with a raised eyebrow.
"I just want to know if nobodies can get sick." Demyx mused.
"What did Vexen tell you." Zexion said with a hint of alarm.
"They said being cold wont do it." Demyx replied with a hint of sadness.
"I doubt you could even catch one." Came the voice of Xigbar walking in.
"Don't give him any ideas!" Zexion retorted.
"Thanks guys." Demyx cheered, leaving the room."
"So who gets to do damage control?" Xigbar huffed.
"I am not too worried, knowing him." Zexion said with confidence.
"I hope that does not come to haunt us." Xigbar poked.
Moving along, Demyx wanted to know what a sick person looked like. So they decided to go pester Axel for a bit. They found him standing outside of Roxas's room, waiting for his friend.
"Hey Axel what does a sick person look like?"Demyx asked.
"That depends on what made them sick, most look pale, or have a runny nose." Axel informed him. "Why, are you coming down with something?"
"I am fine, just wanted to know, so I dont get sick." Demyx mused.
"Hey Roxas are you gonna hurry up or what?" Called Axel.
"I am coming." Grumbled Roxas.
Demyx wandered off, and was happy to have more information, now to find a sick person. Roxas had mentioned twilight town, and he did need to pick a few things up. Xaldin had handed him a list earlier, to help with his cooking. Perhaps they could make a detour for a bit. Once arriving they, decided to look over the list, looks like they had to have some fresh greens for a salad. Once at the sore they came across a crying kid, who looked tired. Kneeling down they said hi, the kid ran up hugging them one, coughing and sneezing on them.
"Aww you poor thing, where is your mom?" Demyx asked.
Before they answered, the kids mom came up and thanked him. What a cute little kid, Demyx thought nothing of it, and continued into the store. Once there they grabbed everything on the list, including some fresh salad bags, they were not found of them. Salads were one thing they never liked, the clock tower sounded, it was time to head back.
Arriving back they saw a semi glowering Xaldin in the kitchen doorway. They were a little late, they did not look happy.
"You are late." They glowered.
"Sorry." Demyx yelped.
"You will be in charge of salad making, and helping with the rest of dinner." Xaldin spoke.
Without protest Demyx help put things together, they opened the salad bags to find an semi off smell. Not worried they rinsed them off, and made a salad for everyone. However Demyx failed to wash their hands. Axel and Roxas were in charge of setting the table. Dinner went off without a hitch, as most of them ate in a hurry, and had other things to attend to.
Later that night Roxas, woke up feeling very sick, as well as a few others, there was the sound of many feet racing to the restrooms. This went on all night, even keeping a heavy sleeper like Xemans up. In the morning most of the members were confined to bed, in the meeting room Xemnas was waiting with a half awake Saix and Demyx.
"I am declaring no missions till all of them are well again." Xemans spoke feeling a little off.
"I seem to be ..." Saix trail off, before running out the door.
"Demyx fetch Vexen at once." Xemnas glowered.
"Y..yes sir." Demyx squeaked.
Xemnas nearly feel off his throne, before he too headed to his room.
"Hey Vexen..." Demyx said knocking at the door.
"Be quiet." Came a loud growl.
"Hey you ok? Xemnas wants to see you." Demyx called.
"I am in no condition to see him, or anyone else." Vexen called back.
Opening the door Demyx saw most of the organization in the medical wing on bed rest, Vexen was doing his best to tend to them. Vexen looked paler than usual, and soon had to sit down.
"Tell me Demyx, have you been feelign off?" Vexen inquired.
"Not at all." Demyx trailed off.
