I own no one here, and how much more trouble could Demyx possibly get in.
Demyx jumped, scattering paperwork all over the desk and floor. If looks could kill, he would be six feet under at this very instant. Staring at Vexen, he looked as if he had not slept in a week. Perhaps it would not be a good idea to get him a bit riled.
"Well?" Vexen snapped not amused in the slightest.
"Ummm just getting these together, for the superior." Demyx stammered.
"Not like that you wont, do you have any idea how to even organize." Vexen lectured, gathering papers.
Demyx quickly went quiet, as Vexen gathered the papers and placed them in a folder. He had some very severe bags under his eyes, and that gave Demyx an idea.
"So mind if I go get you some coffee?" He offered.
"After what happened last time, I would not trust you even with an electric kettle." Vexen fumed.
"Will you two pipe down, before I shoot one of you." Growled Xigbar holding his head.
Vexen got a slight smirk out of that, and shoved the folder in Demyx's hands before walking over. Xigbar just sat there, glaring at Vexen as he was checked over. Deymx took that as his cue to leave before something else happened. Walking down the hallway, it was too quiet for his taste, and along the way they ran into Saix.
"Good you have the reports." He noted snatching them from his hands.
"You are welcome." He yelped, great how was he gonna get them back now.
Saix just opened the folder, doing a quick check of the contents before handing it back over. They then ordered Demyx to report to the superiors office at once. He just nodded and scurried off, that was very lucky of him.
"Hey superior, I have the reports." He called, not expecting any reply.
A quick glance, revealed a pencil he was looking for and they quickly erased their results. The thought of anyone finding out, that he made everyone sick did not sit well with him. They set the paper work down, and scurried out lest they be caught, by the superior. Walking down the hallway they arrived back at the kitchen and found a note.
"Oh come on I have to scrub down all the sinks, and counters." Demyx groaned.
"Would you rather do it with a toothbrush?" Came the voice of the superior.
"No and hi superior.." Demyx stammered.
"Good, cleaning solutions can be found on the counter." The superior noted. " I had Vexen gather them last night."
"Thanks." Was the reply as he was shoved into the kitchen were Saix was waiting.
"I will be supervising." Saix glowered, looking a little more sleep deprived than usual. "By the way the superior wants to talk to you when you are done."
Demyx said nothing but went to work, this was so gross, and tiring , why was he stuck doing all the cleaning. Roxas wandered in and headed towards the fridge only to be stopped by Saix. Instead he was handed a pre wrapped sandwich, they took it and left the room.
"We are trying to keep everyone from getting reinfected." Saix sighed.
Demyx finished, and went to the superiors office, the door was open and the superior was waiting.
"I went over the reports, and Vexen has now separated the other members." He informed them. "Can you tell me did you happen to run, into anyone who might have been sick."
"I helped a kid find his mom, and he sneezed on me." Damyx said carelessly.
"I see.." The superior trailed off.
Demyx now alarmed started to sweat slightly, was the gig up now.
"I washed my hands, snot is gross." Demyx panicked, well he had after dinner was done, but what was a minor overlook.
"The food might have been contaminated,perhaps that is why you might have tested positive." Xemnas droned on.
Demyx nearly fainted with relief, so far they still could not pin it on him. He was still quite nervous and hoped the superior would let him go soon. Though he almost forgot he had touched his face after making the salad that night.
"So in order to verify a false positive, you are to report to Vexen at once for further testing." He ordered. "You are dismissed."
Saix showed up, and dragged him to Vexens lab, once there he saw Axel and Roxas had made a near full recovery.
"Enjoy your time in quarantine. " Axel noted.
"Time in what?" Demyx asked a bit confused.
"You are going to be isolated and checked for symptoms. " Roxas chimed in.
"I did not sign up for that." Demyx whined.
"First we are using a new set of swaps, just in case they were infected by the other samples." Vexen spoke. "Secondly Zexion and Lexaeus are only to be monitored overnight, then let go."
"But why do I need to be isolated Vexy." Demyx huffed.
"First off it it is Vexen, I am your superior, and secondly you might be a carrier." Vexen hissed.
"That means you might carry this bug, but not get sick from it." Axel chimed in. "Lets hope you just got lucky."
At that moment Xaldin, got up and did some minor stretching they looked much better. They had been given the all clear, but were to spend an extra day in their room, just in case. Luxord was busy in a far corner playing go fish with Xion who was still sick.
"This way." Vexen chided, directing Demyx to a room that had bare walls, a toilet and a bed with a small stand next to it. He was then ushered in and ordered to strip down to his boxers.
"Not with everyone here!" He yelped turning a bit red.
"Just draw the curtains, I need samples from your clothes as well." Vexen sighed, he was getting very close to having Demyx sedated.
Demyx did just that, this was totally not worth it, perhaps he should come clean, about all of this and face the music. However with most of them recovering, and the evidence quickly being wiped out, what harm could it possibly do. Vexen took several swabs from his clothes then sent them to be laundered, while he pushed a few sets of papers though a slot, into the room.
"What is this for?" Demyx stated poking at them.
"Just a questionnaire, regarding any symptoms you have currently or may develop." Vexen fumed.
"I have to do paperwork!" Demyx groaned, this was the worst plan ever.
"Would you rather have me, do it my way." Vexen smirked.
"I would love to stay and watch that show." Xigbar laughed.
"Do I really want to know." Demyx questioned, he was getting really uneasy now.
"That all depends on how cooperative you are." Vexen instructed.
Demyx felt like he was between a rock and a hard place right now. Perhaps it was time to let them in on what he really knew.
"I think I may have accidentally gave some of them food poisoning." He squeaked.
"That was due to faulty refrigeration." Vexen noted. "I had Axel go to twilight town on recon, there was a recall on the salad, it has been disposed of."
Demyx was a bit speechless over that, not one of them had said a word all this time. Perhaps, they had just found out themselves, and only now were relaying it to him.
To be continued.
