Hello again. Sorry this chapter took so long. What awaits you in this dear chapter, well only you can know, since I'm not telling you literate morons 83 Well have fun. I present to you all chapter three.
---------------------------
I missed my favorite show again. Sora lost his locker key so we had to look in every class we went to during the day. By the time we were done he found his key was in his left pocket instead of his right pocket. We missed the bus, so we had to walk about ten blocks just to get home. I could have had any older brother in the world. The world and it's screwed up legal system made him my older brother.

Our mom was still at work at 4:00pm and wouldn't be home until seven. That meant I had time to prepare for a long winded lecture about why I should do my crazed history teacher's homework. I entered my room, dragging my backpack carelessly on the carpeted ground. That's when an echoing shriek from down stairs infested my ears. Sora must have found Marius. Who's Marius?

Marius was a deformed cookie that Sora bought at lunch about a week ago. He carried Marius around everywhere he went. If anyone tried to steal Marius Sora would go on a rampage. Hayner was over at our house yesterday while Sora went to the post office with mom to pick up his letters from his old friends, Riku and Kairi. So while we were in the kitchen Hayner found Marius. He didn't know how much Sora was obsessed with the deformed cookie so he took a bite of him. When I found Hayner with Marius I told him to hide him in the freezer. I guess stupid me forgot there was ice cream there.

I slowly threw my backpack filled with learning rocks on my bed and went to lock my door, knowing Sora would run up stairs and maul me for an explanation as to why Marius was bitten. With a soft groan I shook my head and unzipped my backpack carefully. As the door started to bang from Sora's fists attacking it I reached my hand into the backpack like a little kid would reach into his bag of candy and picked out 'The Great Gatsby'. I continued to ignore the headache inducing bangs at my door and sat down on my computer chair, casually opening the book and starting to read from were I left off in class.

I wanted to get out and walk eastward toward the park through the soft twilight but each time I tried to go I became entangled in some wild strident argument-

"Roxas, open up right now!" Sora cried from outside the room, still hitting it fiercely. I ignored him.

-which pulled me back, as if with ropes, into my chair. Yet high over the city our line of yellow windows must have contributed to their share of-

"What happened to Marius, Roxas? Answer me!" The whinny boy dubbed as my older brother continued to cry out. My eye twitched as I continued to ignore him.

-human secrecy to the casual watcher in the darkening streets, and I was him too, looking up and wondering. I was within and without, simultaneously enchanted and repelled by the inexhaustible variety of life.

"Roxas!" Sora screeched for a final time, banging his fists harder then before. Somehow he managed to move the little lock twister of my side of the door handle and the door swung open.

Can't even get through one paragraph without him disturbing me I guess. I lightly shut the book and started to listen to the onslaught of worthless grabble spewing from my brother's mouth. This must be how Nick feels when he talks to Tom.
------------------------
I watched the ceiling light on the ceiling in my bedroom flicker on and off. Mom got her call from Luxord but was too tired to talk to me about it today. In my best interest I told Sora about what happened to Marius, knowing I would regret it tomorrow when Sora would went berserk on Hayner. Just my luck, right?

Making a little sigh I shifted to the right side of my bed. I was supposed to be asleep about two hours ago but I couldn't focus on resting. My head was still a bit discombobulated about what happened during lunch. Who was that guy that saved me from Seifer? I don't think I know him. He knew that we had to go back to class, so he had to be in my school. Now I feel sick. Then my thoughts shifted slowly over to upcoming events in our school year. There was the matter of prom night. The school had scheduled it sometime in April since our school gets out in May. It was March already. Time goes by much faster than you even know it seems.

I groaned a bit and started to think about it more. How was I going to gather up the courage to tell Namine I liked her and scrap up what's left of that courage to ask her to the prom? It made me feel sick when I thought about it even more, because I think I only like Namine because she reminded me of someone.

She reminded me a lot of Kairi, one of Sora's friends and the girl I had a crush on before I moved away to Twilight Town for a year. They looked so similar, besides their obvious contrasts in personalities. But when it came to physical aspects if Namine was just a bit darker skinned, had ruby colored hair and was just a bit taller they would look exactly a like. It scared me because if I told Namine I liked her then what would happen? I was going to go back to Destiny Island afterwards anyway, so what would happen to us? Was it even worth telling her about my crush on her? Great now I'm on the verge of tears.

Tightly my eyes shut, trying to block out images of Kairi and Namine comparisons. I was too confused. Maybe I needed therapy? Without further interruptions I found myself gently flowing off into sleep. The last thing on my mind was the hooded man who saved me from Seifer.
------------------
School started off with our Physics class today. Our teacher was a man with a pirate complex named Xigbar. Now overall I think he was a good teacher. Has a master's degree in science and was probably the most qualified out of all the teachers I had. Looking at a view of sanity you could profile by the very fact that he had an eye patch that there was good 75 chance of him being insane. He digressed off topics more than the students, drabbled on about how the coffee in the teacher's lounge was too cold and had the weirdest accent in the world. Yes even weirder than Luxord's. It was a bit frightening to be with him in the morning.

"Now look you little morons." There he goes again. This is going to take a while. "I might as well break it to you now. Half of you aren't going to even make it through your senior year without passing. Don't get me wrong a lot of you sophomores have the potential to pass. That percentage isn't in this class though."

I ruffled my hair with my hand a bit, trying to release my tired thoughts leftover from last night. Thanks to the deadly horrors of insomnia I didn't get a good night of rest. Being in Xigbar's class was the last thing I wanted to do today. Actually the last thing I wanted to do today was go to school, period.

"So let me make it clear for all of you who are trying their hardest to succeed in this class. Don't try to succeed because if I don't like you I won't pass you. I don't care if you say it's my job to pass you. My real job is to just teach you and not give a crap whether you pass or not. So get over it," he finished, sitting on his desk with his leg dangling carelessly over the desk.

The bell finally ranged coarsely through my ears. I muttered a curse under my breath and swung my bag over my shoulders. My horrendous school morning wasn't finished yet though. Now I had a class with Larxene. I think I hate Tuesdays more now.

My head lightly fell on the wooden desk in the giant blue English room. There was a chorus of chatter amongst the students, as Larxene stood outside the room waiting for the second bell to ring. A small thud chimed through my ears, I ignored it. Then I felt someone poking my hair lightly with a warm finger. I grumbled under the desk and slowly moved my head up to see the poker. At first sight an incredibly bright color of red engulfed my eyes. The color couldn't be natural, right? My head shifted up further to see the red-haired owner's face. It was the new kid from yesterday, Axel was it? Forcing a small annoying blink I moved my body to lie against my chair and made a small sigh. "What is it?" I asked wearily, stretching my arms a bit.

"Mind if I sit here?" He asked with what could be described in a children's picture book as a happy go-lucky grin. It gave me the feeling that the temperature either got a few degrees higher or lower at the very moment his slinking grin showed up. Like a bad house guest I doubted it would go away too soon.

"Sure." What? I suppose to say no, not sure! What possessed me to let that maniac sit next to me? Stupid light-headed, insomnia induced Roxas.

The bell rang again. Time to listen to Larxene child self-esteem crushing speech. It was going to be a long hour, that's for sure. The crazed blonde shut the door mere seconds after the bell rang and was making her way to her desk. Her trademarked smirk danced around her lips evilly. We expected her to go and start crushing us, but she seemed to go right in front of Axel's desk all the sudden.

"Welcome to the army, maggot," she chuckled malevolently. "Now that you're here let's get a few rules straight. Number one: Don't talk unless spoken to. Number two: Act like a bastard and I'll just beat the crap out of you, rather than call your parents. Three-"

"Isn't 'beating the crap out of me' against school rules?" Axel replied with a wagging finger. Most people took it as stupid curiosity, but with a smirk evident on his face he was definitely trying to push Larxene's buttons.

"Not in my house, bastard," Larxene scowled, banging a gloved palm on his desk. "Now as I was saying. Rule three is of course the golden rule that everyone should abide by. If you sleep we won't disturb you, but we won't tell you our lessons," she then cocked her head to turn to Seifer, who was tapping his fingers lightly on his desk, "isn't that right, Seifer?"

Seifer moronically raised his head and put a dumbfounded look on his face. Everyone would have bursted out in tears and laughter at Larxene's reply but we all knew that Seifer would probably beat us up after school. Of course this didn't stop everyone. At the moment stupid look on Seifer's face appeared Axel started to snicker and then shortly bawled out in laughter. All of us just stared at him, wondering if he was crazy. Then hearing a small mutter that went something like 'at least someone has a backbone' I turned my head back to face Larxene, who was smiling not evilly but proudly at Axel's laughter. I knew her for about six to seven months now and never saw her smile like that.

Seifer's look turned sour and he crossed his arms and stiffly kept them on his thin stomach. Why did I suddenly feel an aura of impending doom?

"Now we go away from the humor," our oh-so-lovely-hated teacher started up, slapping Axel's cheek lightly to make him stop laughing, "and return to our original plan."

"Right I gottcha," Axel slyly replied, reaching into his baggy pants pocket. Why did he wear such baggy pants, thing were bound to fall right out. His pale lanky hand then emerged with a brown leather wallet, the kinds big cooperate guys always carried around along with their checkbooks and their credit cards. He then took out two ten dollar bills out from the wallet and put both on the desk. "Okay here is ten for the hair cut and another ten to buy you a nice prostitute who'll take care of you. Remember to skip on the STDs," he added, another happy smirk wiping on his face.

Half the class, including myself, were holding back the urge to laugh at his horrible comment about Larxene. We then saw her smirk turn into an angry teeth-grinding scowl. That was not good sign in any way possible.

"Alright then," Larxene replied, the scowl turning into a sadistic smirk. The aura just got stronger and continued to mock all around it. She took one of the ten dollar bills and suddenly stuffed it down Axel's collared shirt. His mouth opened to react to her movement but with his mouth open he was entering a deadly trap. No one predicted what would happen next though. She swiftly took his lips into a malicious smooch like kiss and as quickly as she went in she went out and ended the joke like kiss. This time nobody held back their laughs at the suddenly awe stricken Axel, except for me. I was still staring at Axel's face. The expression was priceless, yet for some reason I wasn't laughing. Had I become jealous? No, that's impossible.

Larxene started to move her mouth around and then launched out a small spit wad at the ground. She then gently wiped her lips with her gloved hand and chuckled. "Thanks for your service, jackass. Not the best kiss I experienced though."

The bell then rang abruptly, halting the laughter among the students. To think all that happened in an hour. Poor Axel just learned why Larxene was awarded the 'most crazed' teacher in the school last year. Too bad he lost his virginity to it.
---------------------------
"She kissed him!" Hayner cried out in astonishment. We were in the hallway in between classes. We had ten minutes to do whatever we had to do and then the class began. I had met up with Hayner, who was trying to avoid Sora. He was mad when I told him that Sora found out about who took a bite out of Marius, but it seemed his mood was uplifted when I told him about the event in English class between Larxene and Axel. Before I could answer him with an ensuring yes he started to wildly laugh.

"We were all surprised too," I commented, shaking up my blonde hair with my hand. Hayner was tearing up and he still wouldn't stop. I lightly patted his back, making sure he wouldn't stop breathing in between laughs.

"It wasn't that great," said the familiar voice from English class, "her lips tasted like poison too."

I turned my head to come into eye contact with Axel, who was lying against the green lockers behind us. I noticed his lips were chapped, probably from Larxene's kiss. Poor guy didn't seem to like it either.

"So…how was…the kiss?" Hayner asked in between pants, his inhaling begging for breath.

Axel just made a smug chuckled and lightly sighed. "She didn't do much, but I think this wasn't her first time going into something sudden."

Hayner just shot out laughing again. I wanted to laugh but I just felt uneasy about it. Not to mention if I was going to laugh as crazy as Hayner then who would pat my back so I wouldn't die? Axel rolled his eyes and shook his head at Hayner in disappointment. "Your friend is going to die from laughing about this," he said with an added grin at me, eyes radiating holes into my own. I made a quick blink and continued to pat Hayner's back. Axel's eyes, in my own opinion, appear as though they were dumped into a radioactive bin and placed into his eye sockets when he was born. No one's eyes could be so radiant and entrancing at the same time. Except for-

"Hey Roxas, is Hayner okay?" A small voice asked from my side. I turned my head to meet eye to eye with Namine, clutching her art pad to her flat-chest as she looked at Hayner who seemed to become calmer at her presence. That's how she always was it seemed. Anytime she was around someone a sudden impulse of peace coursed through your veins, acting on a wave of sunshine and a rush of adrenaline. Wow that was overly poetic.

"I'm okay, Namine," Hayner quickly said, answering for me since I entered a daze. Sora said I did that a lot and he got it from him. Whenever he said that I decided not to remind him that he was my step-brother and had no blood relation to me.

"I see you two made a new friend," She said in a whispering voice. I don't think either Axel or Hayner noticed it but Namine's face looked distraught for two seconds before it changed back into a weary smile.

"Oh yea," I quickly stated, not allowing Hayner to answer this time. "This is Axel." What idiot am I? Of course she knows who he is; we have the same English class together!

Axel just simply waved a pale hand at Namine, and she just looked nervously at him. I never seen the girl so tensed in the few months that I've knew her. "Well I think I should go now," Axel rushed out of his mouth, "Class starts in a couple minutes and I need to rush."

At that time I was about to ask him what he had next but he didn't even bother to look back to tell me. Back at that very moment I was too caught up in Namine's presence to even question why he seemed so familiar just talking so calmly like that. I wanted to tell Namine bye but she had already started on her way to art class. Hayner, who was only by my side two minutes ago had disappeared. My ears wanted to spurt out blood as a familiar chime rang through my ears. I was late to Health.

"Looks like someone is late again," a cold voice crept down from my ears to my spine. Was it natural to have more than one doom feeling in less than two hours?

It made me uneasy, as thought the whole evening has been a trick of some sort to exact a contributary emotion from me.

Dude I totally nailed you all with a quadrupled pairing of LarAxel, AkuRoku, KaiRoxas and Roxamine. Totally didn't see that one coming :B

But yay its done xOx About five pages on word in Arial font, size 10. My face feels cold from the winter, which sucks a lot for me ;w; Gaaaaah.

Anyways for all of those that read Superfluous and are joining us I'm Symde and this is my first entry on even though I have been book marking and reading stories since around August. For all of those that don't know what Superfluous is I suggest you read it, review and watch it 8D

Also on another note: I'm not sure if it's spelled contributary or contributory, but I'm taking it as a direct quote from the book (guess which book kids :D). Sorry it took so long but I've had real life issues for a week or so. On a good note I have planned out the chapters. There will be nine chapters so for all those that can do basic addition you should know how many more chapters there will be.

Does anyone else get insomnia and then just hates going to school? That's me basically half the school week. Well time to watch Mononoke Hime and play more Final Fantasy III for the DS. Until the next time we meet.
