So that night, Axel finally found out how to turn the volume down, and he and Roxas both watched the anime called Naruto. It was about a blonde kid ninja that wore an orange jumpsuit, a pink haired female ninja that liked to stalk this black-haired, depressed-looking dude called Sasuke (that's the only person he knew in the series), and a weird, old man who strongly resembled Michael Jackson. Roxas kept falling asleep on the floor during the best parts and then after it was over, he attempted to kick Axel in the groin because he was angry that they did not TiVo the episode. After he explained for the third time that Seifer did not have TiVo. Finally Roxas calmed down.
"Dang, I'm tired!" Axel groaned. "My stomach hurts from all that ice cream!"
"We're we gonna sleep then?" Roxas asked, "I sure don't wanna sleep down here, cockroaches might crawl in our ears."
"I guess upstairs." Axel pointed towards the staircase. "I guess we'll just have to sleep in our uniforms."
Roxas nodded and began walking towards the screen door leading to the backyard where the chickens were living. "Um. . .Rox, upstairs is not that way!" Axel said. "You must really be tired to go. . .HEY, you're not really going outside are you, what are you doing?!" He demanded, seeing Roxas open the door and start to walk outside.
"But, Axel, if we don't bring the chickens inside, they'll catch cold!" Roxas said.
"That's very kind of you Roxas, but chickens have feathers to keep them warm, they don't have to come inside!" Axel said, "Now, come back here!"
"I know, but I just want them to come in here and wreck Seifer's house for being a bitch to us." Roxas said.
"Well, in that case, round'em up and throw'em in here!" Axel cried excitedly.
Roxas went outside and collected the five chickens to the best of his ability. It wasn't easy but he managed to only recieve a few pecks and scratches. The rooster was easy to get inside (he chased Roxas back in the house). Once they were all in, Roxas ran at full speed back up the stairs (to keep from getting attacked by the rooster) and went into Seifer's room. Axel was already asleep. Seeing there was no other place to sleep in this room, Roxas decided he would have to share the bed with his friend.
"Hey, Ax move over!" Roxas whispered, Axel continued to sleep soundly. Well, asking nicely didn't work. Roxas stood back from the bed and then ran forward. Then once he was close to the bed, he vaulted onto it and fell clumsily on top of Axel's body.
As soon as all of Roxas' 125 pounds landed on top of him, Axel immediatly woke up and lept to his feet, knocking Roxas on the ground. When he saw that Roxas was the one who had tackled him and not a homicidal maniac, he asked, "Roxas, in case you didn't notice before, I'm- trying"- to- SLEEP!"
"I know, I know, but you wouldn't wake up!" Roxas said standing to his feet.
"That's kinda the point of sleeping, you're not supposed to wake up! Do I need to. . .,"
"No!No! I was trying to make you move over so I could get in the bed!" Roxas yelled.
"WHY?!" Axel asked.
"Because, there's no other place for me to sleep!" Roxas said."So I HAVE to sleep with you!"
"Roxas, you're a great pal and I love you, but not like that!" Axel said.
"No, no, no, no, I know, it's. . .,"
"How about you sleep on the floor, it's nice and clean, and you won't bother me." Axel threw a pillow and one blanket at Roxas' feet. "There, now go to sleep." Roxas was sad to have to sleep on the floor, but he was exhausted. In almost no time, Roxas was dead asleep and he looked very tempting to poke. "Daaaaaaang, he looks almost dead!" Axel said and he tried to get to sleep himself.
For some reason Axel had this strange feeling like he was forgetting something very important. Like that feeling you get just before you realize you forgot to study for a major test. It kept on nagging at his mind and he couldn't sleep. He tried to think hard about what it was, but it was stuck far in the back of his mind. That was when it finally dawned on him, that he was a complete idiot. Here he was, a powerful Nobody of Organization XIII, sleeping in this dumpy house belonging to some weirdo with a bunch of chickens that for some reason he thought he needed to baby sit. Also in this house was a bunch of expensive electronics, a life-time supply of ice cream, and possibly some other valuables. Maybe if he had realized this a little earlier, he wouldn't be sitting here thinking about this. "I'm such a moran."
Roxas was suddenly awoken by Axel's voice. "Wh-what, now?"
"Roxas, get up, we're leaving here!" Axel said, getting off the bed and turning on the light.
Roxas groaned and turned over, "Please, no, I'm tired!"
"Fine! Stay here, I'm going back to the castle and I'm bringing all the chickens and the ice cream and the big T.V.!" Axel said and started walking down the stairs. Roxas immediatly lept up and followed Axel at a jog down to the living room.
Axel and Roxas both stuffed the chickens in a big sack with small breathing holes, put the icecream in some Wal-Mart bags, and the T.V. was also stuffed in a large sack. The whole process took a total of two and one half hours. "Are we going to have to walk ALL the way to the Gummi Ship carrying these bags?" Roxas asked.
"Nope, we're going to go there through the little warpy-thingy-doodle." said Axel. Well, as you can imagine, they went through the "warpy-thingy-doodle" and made it back to the castle of the World That Never Was.
The entire place was pitch black and quiet except for the soft clucking and squaking of the chickens within one of the sacks. Everyone, hopefully was in their beds and they would be able to sneak the bags into Axel's room without being caught and interrogated. However, it happened anyway of course. The two had almost made it to Axel's room, when a figure appeared before them. It did not startle them, but a wave of fear penetrated their non-existent hearts. The only words Axel could mutter were, "Oh. . .snap. . .," Luckily, it turned out the figure was only Marluxia. They both have a giant sigh of relief, thankful the figure was not Xemnas.
"Whoooaaa. . .you guys really got chickens? Heeey. . .how come ya'll are carrying those other giant bags for?" Marluxia asked.
"It's none of your stupid business, Marluxia Dianna Richardson!" Axel said, "Now, step aside before I burn your ass!"
"Fine, but your in MAJOR dog crap tommorow morning!" Marluxia said, "Xemnas is ultimately pissed at ya'll!" With that, the pink-haired guy dissapeared in a whirl-wind of rose petals.
"Marluxia's not very polite is he?" asked Roxas.
"None of us are, Kid." Axel said. "Just, c'mon! We gotta get this stuff up here before someone else finds us. . .or before Marluxia tattles on us."
"We can't just leave the chickens in your room all night, they need to be able to roam freely!" Roxas said, gently putting the bag that held the chickens onto the ground. The big, fat birds squawked as they hit the ground.
"Sure, whatever, just do something with them, I'm too tired to deal with it!" Axel continued to drag the other bags to his room while Roxas released the chickens. As soon as the boy opened the sack, the six chickens scattered in seperate directions, clucking in annoyance and ruffling their feathers. Roxas waved to them and then abandoned Axel to go to his own room to sleep.
Axel finally made it to his room and his collapsed on the bed. His shoulders and back were unbelievably sore and his head throbbed miserably. In spite of the pain he was in, he was more worried about what the next day would be like. Of course, by now Marluxia had probably already told on them, so he gave up on trying to make up an excuse to why it took so long for Roxas and Axel to get back from the bathroom. iHopefully/i, he thought,i Xemnas was stupid enough not to believe Marluxia's story./i
bThe Next Day. . ./b
The first thing that Xemnas woke up to that morning was the sound of someone banging on his door. If you are a non morning-person like Xemnas, you would know that the sound of someone banging on your door to wake you up makes you feel extremely angry as if you want to kick someone in the face. He growled angrily, got up off his bed, and walked to the door. "Who are you and What do you want?" Xemnas demanded.
"It's me, Superior, I have to tell y'all something important!"
iOh great, it's Pepto Bismal./i Xemnas said to himself, recognizing Marluxia's annoying southern drawl.(Okay, so I decided to make Marluxia's English VA a guy from South Carolina, get over it!) "If it's something stupid, I'm gonna kick you in the face." He said and then opened the door.
"Oh Superior, why aren't you wearing any pajamas?" Marluxia asked. For some reason, Marluxia was more concerned about Xemnas' clothes than "something important."
"Idiot, in this fanfiction, we sleep in our clothes; pajamas are for sissies with who have pink hair." Xemnas mummbled.
"Well anyway. . .um. . .I forgot what I was going to say. . .,"
"Was that all you came here to tell me?"
"N-no, it was something else. . .WAIT, WAIT, it's all coming back to me now. . .,"
"I'm going to get some breakfast, come back when you have something 'not stupid' to tell me." Xemnas said and shoved Marluxia out of the way and began walking towards the place where the kitchen was located.
"No wait, Sir! I think I remembered it now!" Marluxia cried.
He ignored Marluxia and continued walking, "Why don't you just go off and die somewhere?"
When Xemnas was almost at the kitchen. . .or whatever. . .he began to notice that there were little brown and white feathers scattered on the floor. He did't really care about them at first, but whe he started to notice more and more of them he started getting ticked off. Maybe it had something to do with what Pepto Bismal was trying to tell him had something to do with them. Oh well, no one really cares anyway. . .
Then as he entered the kitchen. . .or whatever they call it that they keep the pop tarts, the hot pockets, the Trix yogurt, bread, etc., and has a microwave, toaster, and sink in it. . .Xemnas heard this strange noise like a chicken clucking. Thinking it was just a figment of his imagination and it was probably just something wrong with the washing machine on the next floor down, he started to reach for one of the loaves of bread (he wanted toast when he noticed that one of them was missing. Usually, O/XIII kept a few loaves of bread handy because most of the members like to eat sandwiches a lot. He shrugged, making a note to himself to get Demyx to get more bread.
He picked up the second loaf and reached in to get a peice of bread. Suddenly he heard the clucking noise get louder and then heard a scratching noise on the floor. He turned around and then behold!- five live fat chickens stood there. They were looking curiously at the loaf of bread in Xemnas' hand, their tiny black eyes stared at the bread he had in his hands. Xemnas stared back at them, completely speechless. He had that feeling you get when someone does something that makes you angry, but you don't want to believe they ever would do such a thing so you have to let the reality of it set in before you actually get angry.
"Here Chicky-chicky-chicky-chikies!" Xemnas heard Roxas' voice call. The blonde boy came running into the kitchen. In one of his hands was a half-empty bag of loaf bread and in the other, small bread chuncks. The chickens turned their heads when they heard Roxas' voice and began squawking exitedly when they saw the bread chuncks. Roxas smiled brightly as the chickens gathered around his feet. He then threw the chuncks on the ground and the birds snatched the food quickly in their tiny beaks. Roxas looked up at Xemnas and noticed him holding the full loaf of bread, "Been raidin' the kitchen again, Fatty Patty?" He asked.
Xemnas could not hear him very well, for the chickens were clucking so loudly, "Excuse me?" He had to grit his teeth to keep himself from kicking Roxas in the face.
"I mean, how are you doing, Superior?" Roxas asked.
Xemnas cracked his face in to a fake smile, "Oh, I'm just doin' dandy today, Roxy! Yup, just fine n' dandy!"
"Well, that's good." Roxas said. He sighed with relief, "Man, I was thinkin' you were angry about the chickens or somethin'!" Roxas clicked his tongue against the roof of his mouth, "C'mon, chickies! Let's get out of the kitchen so ya' don't crap in our food!" He took a few steps away, shaking the bread bag and the chickens followed him.
Suddenly Axel appeared in the room, (apparently he figured out how to do the cool warpy thingy). He ran quickly up to Roxas, not really noticing Xemnas, "Roxas, what are you doing? Get those idiots out of here, they'll crap all over the place and Xem- . . .," Finally, it was then that Axel was aware that Xemnas was present. All of a sudden he had this funky feeling like somone had dropped a bar bell on his stomach. "Ooooohhhhhhhhh, shiiiiiiiiiizzzzzllle. . .," Were the only words that were able to escape his mouth.
"You ibetter/i be saying 'oh shizzle', Axel Elizabeth." Xemnas growled. His fake smile was now replaced with an ugly scowl. Xemnas' burnt-orange topaz eyes stared at Axel with nothing but pure hatred. He walked towards the red-haired guy, growling like an enraged doberman pinscher and muttering some not words that were not very nice. If it weren't for the other Organization members showing up in the kitchen, he would have murdered Axel on the spot but he didn't want to get blamed if they complained of Axel's guts being splattered on their food.
Marluxia was ahead of the others. He pointed directly at the chickens and said, "Oh, oh, oh Superior!" Marluxia cried, raising his other hand in the air like a preschooler. "I remember now! I was going to tell you that Axel and Roxas ran away from the castle without permission, stole and never returned one of our gummi ships -and I bet they drank all the vanilla coke too- somehow got chickens, and then set them free in the house."
"Um, Marly, I think he might already kinda know that by now." Xigbar said.
"Shut the hell up Xigbar, I'll kick you in the face!" Marluxia said and he glared angrily at Xigbar. Of course, Xigbar wasn't at all shaken by Marluxia's threat, but still he knew it would be wise to shut up anyway.
"You can't even kick that high, Stupid!" Larxene told Marluxia with a laugh.
"I don't even think he can kick a chicken!" Lexaeus said and laughed along with Larxene. Everyone else was either tired or thought this was so unbelievably stupid they didn't care, except for Demyx who probably was probably off in his own little world and not paying attention to reality at all. Xemnas just watched with a bored expression on his face and Axel and Roxas were just trying to keep from laughing as much as they could.
Marluxia's ears turned a bright red, almost blending in with his Pepto Bismal-colored hair. Angrily he lifted his foot up in the air and attempted to kick on of the chickens that was on the ground. However, as soon as his foot was about to hit it, the chicken squawked and hopped out of the way. All Marluxia kicked a bunch of air. Then, everyone, even Xemnas, just busted out laughing. Xemnas grabbed Siax and started punching him like he usually did when he was laughing. "Oh God, Marluxia you're so helplessly retarded it's hilarious!"
Poor Marly was so humilated he felt like crying, "Ya know what, just. . .y'all leave me alone! Just leave me alone!" Then he warped. . .or whatever. . .away to some other room of the castle where he can cry like a girl in privacy.
When he left, everyone's laughter sorta died down. "Hey, what are we laughing about?" Demyx asked with honest seriousness in his voice.
"Demyx. . .just. . .don't worry about it, we were laughing about pudding." said Luxord irritably.
"Yeah, yeah, we were laughing about pudding. . .har, har, har, isn't it just hilarious?" Vexen asked with a sarcastic tone.
"It's doesn't make sense. . .," Demyx said and then walked a little bit away from them to ponder to himself about what was so funny about pudding. However, he couldn't really concetrate because Xemnas was still laughing in the background like it was the funniest thing in the world.
"Okay, Xemnas it's really not that funny anymore. . .," Axel finally spoke.
Xemnas tried to calm down and took a deep breath. Then he shoved Siax back towards the others. "Heehee. .just. . .hehhehheh. . .come to the meeting room. . .or whatever it's called. . .," He said, struggling to be serious and keep from laughing again.
"Hey, we didn't any breakfast!" Larxene cried in an extremely whiny voice. "That aint fair!"
"Shut up before I kill you." Xemnas muttered and his empression suddenly became serious. He sighed heavily and began to stomp down the hallway to the meeting room . . .or what ever that weird place was called.
"You know you can just warp there!" Demyx called after Xemnas, but he just kept on walking.
