The Beginning of the End

Time: 9:00 A.M Wednesday

Location: Beach House

Saix awoke to the feeling of being watched. He had always been perceptible to that feeling, and he hated it.

He turned his head and found Zexion staring at him intently, sleep had not moved or disordered Zexion's hair, leading Saix to wonder if he ever did sleep. "What?" Saix asked, yawning slightly.

"Nothing." Zexion answered, drinking from a mug with question marks on it. "Its just that…you look like a cat when you sleep."

Saix sat up, stretched his arms out in front if him. "What? Why do you say that?"

Zexion shrugged. "You just do. Well…" he thought for a moment. "You curl up. And you fell asleep before I came in, and…umm…" Zexion started to fidget.

"And what?" Saix pressed, while he ran his long-ish nails thought his hair. Zexion's lips twitched.

"You ears twitched! Just like a kitties ears! Oh it was so cute. And right now! You're grooming your hair with your hands! Like a kitty would with their cute, little paws!" SAIX FROZE AS Zexion rambled on about how unbelievably adorable kittens are. 'The mysterious Zexion is…fascinated by small, fuzzy animals?'

"You…like cats?" Saix asked, unable to think of anything else to say.

"Hells yeah!" Zexion replied excitedly. This was the most social he's ever been. "Their awesome! I mean COME ON! Their so CUTE!" Zexion made a face to emphasize his point. Saix nodded slowly, and jumped out of bed.

"Did you even sleep last night?" Saix said. Voicing his thoughts.

Zexion shook his head quickly, his hair…not moving. Which disturbed Saix slightly. "Nope! I was watching you. I wanted to see if you'd twitch your ears again. You did. Several times." Zexion squealed. Yes…squealed. Saix twitched.

"So…you've been watching me…sleep…all night?"

"You were watching my Saix sleep?!" Xemnas roared, exiting his own room. "No one but me is allowed to do that!"

"I just did!" Zexion pointed out. He had obviously drank a lot of coffee.

"Ya know what…I'm not that hungry…I think I'll go…take a walk or something." Saix mumbled, pointing towards the door.

"I'll go with you!" Xemnas offered, eyes alight with determination.

"Uh, no that's…kind of you but no. Really its not like I'm going to fall in." Saix said, and backed out the door.

XXXX

Saix, who was desperately trying to ignore the new, more talkative Zexion, who decided to follow Saix out on his walk. Zexion, apparently was comfortable to talk to someone who was almost as anti-social as he used to be. Or still was…depending on who he was with at the time.

Upon walking well past all the inhabited parts of the island, where all the rest of the Organization was at, he spotted a black blob, digging threw the sand. "Hey Zexion. What's that?" Saïx asked, pointing.

"And I LOVE the sound of purring! Its so- huh? Oh. I don't know." Zexion looked a little offended at being interrupted, but Saïx knew he'd get over it.

The pair walked up to the black blob, which smelled strongly of vodka and roses. It was like this blob had a fun night with Marluxia and Xaldin. Saix shuddered, and apparently Zexion's mind was on the same train of thought.

"Hey! Rummy! What are you doing?" Zexion asked. The blob whirled around to revel a very trashed Luxord. He had multiple sand dollars shoved in various parts of his cloak, pants, and boots.

"Uhh…Luxord?" Zexion asked. "What are you doing?"

"Must…gamble. Need…munny."

"Luxord…those are sand dollars." Saix pointed out.

"Yes.." Luxord looked at the sand dollars affectionately. "Dollars…"

"But…we've only been here less than a day. Are you already going through withdrawal?" Zexion asked.

But Luxord wasn't listening. He had quickly shoved the shells into his pants, and ran off down the beach to look for more.

"Well that was weird." Zexion commented. Saix nodded.

"Well…I'm going back. I'm kinda hungry." Zexion nodded and walked beside him.

XXXX Time: 10:00 XXXX

More of the Organization members had begun to awaken.

Axel and Roxas had stumbled out of the more wooded area of the island around the same time Zexion and Saix had returned from their walk.

Larxene had woken up early to get ready for sun tanning, and was currently laying on the beach.

Xaldin, Marluxia, and Xigbar had not been seen yet. Nor had Luxord returned from his…collecting.

Demyx, Vexen, and Lexaeus had yet to wake up.

"They live." Zexion chuckled as he and Saix approached their house.

"Zexion!" Xemnas roars, kicking down the door. He held a wooden spoon in one hand, and had a blue apron draped over his cloak. Xemnas…had failed to bring any…civilian clothes. And Saix, out of habit, had not changed into civilian clothes that morning. But Zexion…he wore a plain black, long sleeved shirt, and loose fitting black pants. It looked almost exactly like their cloaks…only it didn't have a hood.

"What?!" Zexion cried. Truly, it looked as if he was going to cry.

"What did you do to Saix?" Xemnas asked, rushing up to the Lunar Diviner. "What did he do to you?" Xemnas repeated.

"Why is it that whenever I disappear for more than 5 minutes you automatically think something happened to me?" Saix asked, as Xemnas moved his hair to the side, and pulled down the collar.

"No marks on your neck…good." Xemnas mumbled to himself. Xemnas looked into Saïx's confused eyes, and in one swift movement, pulled of his cloak.

"Xemnas!" Saix yelled. He didn't like…being exposed, even if it was just his shirt/cloak. It made him feel vulnerable.

"Nothing on your chest." Xemnas mumbled. Hands exploring more skin than needed. "Here." Xemnas said, handing Saix back his cloak. "Wait!" Xemnas ran around him. "Okay…no fingernail marks on your back…"

"Hey…Xemnas." Saix began, putting on his cloak at the same time.

"Yes?"

"How come it is that whenever you think someone raped me or…whatever…you think I'm always on bottom…why?" Saix asked.

Xemnas gave him a blank look for a moment, before he started laughing uncontrollably.

"WHAT!?"

"You!? On top? That's….weird!" Xemnas laughed. Zexion was silently snickering behind him.

"Why?"

"Because! Saix, you may have the whole leadership skill and berserker-ness…but your not seme worthy." Xemnas explained. "You're a total uke."

"I am not!" Saix said, pouting slightly.

"Come on…you're a completely softy at heart." Zexion laughed.

"Zexion! Not you too!" Saix moaned in anguish. "Whatever…I'm leaving." Saix said, stalking away.

"No! hey, wait up!" Zexion yelled, running after the moody man.

XXXX Time: 12:00 XXXX

Zexion and Saix walked down the beach, trying to find something to occupy them.

"Oh Zexioooonnn!" came a sing-song voice. The pair turned to see Larxene waving at them from the beach. Apparently, they had stepped onto Larxene's part of the Beach without heir knowing…and YES they had claimed parts of the beach as their own.

"What?"

"Will you rub lotion on me?" she asked in a sickly sweet voice.

"I don't want to."

"Please?! You know you want toooo!"

"No, I honestly don't think I do." Zexion said.

"Zexion! Get your skinny ass over here NOW!" Larxene yelled, clearly pissed off.

Zexion grabbed Saïx's collar and ran. He ran as fast as his skinny ass could run.

XXXX Time: 2:00 XXXX

Saix, Zexion, and now Demyx, walked down the beach, headed away from the houses.

Demyx skipped ahead, his new bright blue t-shirt, and blue khaki shorts got covered in sand as Demyx tripped, and fell face first. "Hehehehe…that was weird." Demyx giggled.

"So hungry!" Saix moaned, clutching his stomach and collapsing on his side, relatively close to Demyx.

"You're the one that skipped out on breakfast." Zexion commented. He like commenting on things today…it was fun.

"I know!" Saix groaned pathetically, curling up in on himself.

"KITTY!" Zexion squeaked. Demyx giggled.

"I like Zexion social like this. He's fun to talk to." Demyx observed Saïx's scowl. "Sai…you need to lighten up. Ya know…do some awesome stuff!"

"Whatever…" Saix mumbled.

Demyx gasped. "GASP! You're turning Squall on us!"

Saix and Zexion looked at Demyx confused. "What the hell?

"Indeed. What the hell?" Zexion asked.

"Well, ya know how I almost always have to go to Hollow Bastion? Well there's this guy there…named Squall, but everyone calls him Leon 'cause he all depressed about his past and…ya I'll shut up now." Zexion and Saix nodded in agreement, and Saix buried his head in the sand, trying to ignore his stomach.

"NU!" Zexion screamed. "Don't do that! You'll get sand in your fur!"

"You dumbass, I don't have fur!" Saïx yelled.

"How do we know that?" Demyx asked.

"You little asshole! Why the hell are you stalking us anyway?" Saix demanded.

"Well…Axel and Roxas were…'getting it on'….and Axel said I shouldn't be there when they 'do it' so I left." Demyx explained.

"Your mind has yet to be corrupted…doesn't it." Saix asked. Demyx gave his a blank stare. "Right…virgin ears…"

"Oh! I wanna corrupt his mind! Can I do it? Please!?" Zexion begged.

"Go for it." Saix said, waving a hand dismissively. "I'm to hungry to care."

"We have come to the rescue!" a voice yelled. Demyx looked up and was completely shocked.

"W.T.F" Demyx yelled, shocking Zexion and Saix with his instant messaging lingo. The others turned to see to women…wait…no HOLY HELL! IT WAS…

"M-Marluxia?"

"Vexen?"

Marluxia nodded. "Yes! It is us!" Marluxia announced, swinging a basket he held in his hand.

"Why the hell are you wearing bikinis!?" Zexion demanded.

Vexen and Marluxia looked down at themselves, then at each other. "You wanna know why?" Marluxia asked. All three nodded.

"Are you sure?" Vexen asked. They nodded again.

Marluxia and Vexen took a deep breath, and yelled out in unison. "'CAUSE WE SEXY BITCHES!"

"Uh…right." Zexion said, edging away from the two, and making sure his eardrums weren't broken.

"That doesn't solve me EXTREME hunger!" Saïx moaned.

"Yes it does!" Vexen said in a sing song voice.

"For we sexy bitches totally brought you a totally sexy lunch! Full of TWINKIES!" Marluxia announced, throwing the basket at Saix, who immediately ripped it open and shoved three Twinkies in his mouth.

"We have a question by the way." Vexen began. "Have any of you seen Luxord? We haven't seen him since last night."

"Uh, yea. Me and Saix saw him this morning. He was at the south end of the beach collecting sand dollars." Zexion explained. He figured it better if he didn't mention the fact that Luxord smelled like a flower and Vodka.

"Alright, thanks. We have to go find him now." Marluxia said, and waved goodbye as him and Vexen ran away, down the beach.

XXXX Time: 4:30 XXXX

The new trio (since Axel and Roxas abandoned Demyx), sat in…a somewhat circle. Doing nothing of particular interest to anyone, but I'll tell you anyway. Zexion was in the process of counting the grains of sand that was between his toes. Saix was eating Twinkies…still. Zexion wondered how many Twinkies Marluxia and Vexen gave him, but did not voice his question. Demyx was doodling many little…doodles in the sand, he had been playing his sitar, but Saix had yelled at him, saying that it was interrupting his Twinkie eating concentration.

"Hi Yo!" Axel waved, greeting the three.

"Hiya Axel!" Demyx greeted happily.

"What do YOU want?" Saix asked, eyeing Axel and Roxas (who had just appeared from behind Axel), suspiciously. "Here to steal my Twinkies?"

"Uh…no." Axel said, eyeing the slightly insane look in Saïx's eyes.

"I'd rather eat Axel's Twinkie." Roxas purred. Axel shuddered and shook his head frantically at Roxas, who in turn pouted slightly.

Axel surveyed everyone as Roxas sat down beside Zexion.

"Actually Xemnas sent us to find Saix." Roxas explained.

"Yea, he's been paranoid all day. This vacation is to relive stress, not cause it." Axel chimed in as he leaned over Demyx to observe what he was doing.

"Besides, he wants everyone to at least be together. I think he said something about having dinner together." Roxas continued.

Axel hummed. "Pretty." he whispered to Demyx. Demyx turned to grin at Axel, glad the flamer liked his little doodle.

"Anyway." Axel said, straightening up. "We gotta get. We promised Xemnas to get Saix back the house by five. And I feel kinda like some weird babysitter but whatever. Get up you bums. At least I was doing something today."

"More like doing someone…" Saix mumbled.

"You walked right into that one Axel." Roxas laughed.

"I don't get it." Demyx admitted.

"And its going to stay that way for awhile Demyx." Zexion smirked, standing up.

"Agreed." Saïx said, standing a stretching. Causing Zexion to squeal again.

Demyx pouted, and followed. Taking one last look at his doodle.

XXXXXXXXXXX

The moon set hours ago, and darkness had over taken the island. The oceans grew and shrank with tides the moon has made. Tides were overtaking the beach, leveling out sand dunes and indents.

Slowly the tides rises to over take a new section of sand. Washing out lines and marks of footprints left by the owners.

Multiple doodles, left in the sand, began to wash away. Little stars and moons, sitars and music notes. All washed away in the tides. But one was saved for last. A picture of two men. One lightly taller than the other. One, smiling brightly, the other with a slight scowl upon his lips.

But then the moon and water wished the two away, and swept the picture away with the tides.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

A/N: Yes…this is not as long as I wanted, but I couldn't use all my ideas for one day. XD. I also would have posted this earlier but my comp. Was being stupid and didn't save all of it, and I ended up loosing half of this. The older one was better…but of course, me being me didn't think to write it all down so…yea I'm kinda mad at myself. FYI the pole is still open I'm interested to see what you all want.

If your wondering, I don't like Lexaeus, so I wont write him much. Xaldin and Xigbar I don't have a problem with, but I just didn't feel like putting them in this chapter.

Sorry to anyone who thinks Marluxia and Vexen were a little high...they might have been. No one knows XD
