Nineteen Days With Demyx
Day 5 – Demyx Cannot Unsee the RABBIT
"Demyx?" Demyx whipped around with squeak of surprise as the ever present Xaldin called his name from the other end of the hall. Xaldin raised an eyebrow at the boy's undeniably paranoia-filled eyes, but shrugged it off and approached him casually.
"Are you okay?" Xaldin was abruptly cut off by Demyx's almost puppylike whine.
"A-all I see, everywhere I look, is that RABBIT!" Demyx had angry tears welling in the corners of his eyes.
"…a rabbit?" Xaldin looked on in confusion as Demyx mindlessly looked back and forth at around corners.
"THE rabbit! T-the one that gets me every time! It's EYES! Oh it's eyes Xaldy! They're EMPTY!" Demyx started sobbing into Xaldin's chest uncontrollably.
"Erm… I'm a bit lost." Xaldin pat Demyx on the back comfortingly, still wondering what kind of thing the poor kid had gone through to be scared of rabbits. I mean, they were freaking adorable! If you think otherwise you obviously haven't seen the 'man is smothered by bunnies on Japan's rabbit island' video. Er, back to the problem at hand.
Demyx looked up, eyes red, and frantically began the retelling of his terror-filled tale in some sort of gibberish that only Demyx himself would understand.
"Y-you got any fives?" Demyx reeeeally needed to stop underestimating Luxord's skills. The gambler smirked as he shook his head.
"Nope, no fives. Go fish." Demyx frowned as he took a card.
"Any ones?" Demyx looked at Luxord in a horrified sort of way, swallowing thickly as he handed over a one. Luxord seemed to be mentally planning world domination through gambling, and Demyx had no doubts whatsoever that he would and could take over the entire universe on the off chance aliens dabbled in poker.
"Unfortunately, lad, it seems you've lost." Luxord slapped his last two cards, both ones, down on the tabletop with a smug expression. Demyx stayed silent for a moment, his brain processing the information.
"OH CRAP RUN AWAY!" Luxord grabbed the blond by the hood before he could get to the door, and yanked him back to the table.
"Surely you haven't forgotten about our little bet we made earlier. I've won fair and square, now you have to pay the price." Demyx shook like a leaf, remembering the terrible decision he'd made to make a bet he knew he couldn't win. I bet I could beat you at Go Fish! Yeah. Bad decision.
"L-Luxy!" Demyx laughed nervously. "C-can't we just talk about this?" Luxord raised an eyebrow.
"We are talking about it." Luxord deadpanned. Demyx gave a mental sigh, knowing he'd lost. But just because you lose the battle doesn't mean you've lost the war! Demyx somehow managed to keep his optimism in the dreariest of times.
"Fine…" he grumbled quietly. Luxord displayed the creepiest of grins.
"So, all I have to do is look at the security cameras and make sure the animatronics stay in the same place?" Roxas shook his head.
"No, they'll move, you can be sure of that. Just keep an eye on them, and if they get too close, shut your door. Check the lights every now and then to see if they're in the hallway. Oh, and don't forget to check up on Foxy to make sure he's… content…" Demyx head was spinning. Did Roxas actually expect him to remember all that? Well, it couldn't be that hard. Cameras, doors, lights. Once the clock hits 6 AM you're home free. Easy enough.
NIGHT 1
Involved Demyx pushing Roxas off the bed when he spied Freddy staring at him creepily from the storage closet.
NIGHT 2
Involved Demyx nearly obliterating Roxas' laptop when Chica screamed at him after he'd finished checking the cameras.
NIGHT 3
Involved Demyx screaming like a little girl when Freddy appeared at his doorway.
NIGHT 4
Involved Demyx falling off the bed landing ON TOP of Roxas, who was still laying there dazed, when he caught a glimpse of Foxy sprinting down the hallway.
NIGHT 5
Involved Bonnie. There isn't much else to say. Just Bonnie and a scarred-for-life Demyx who'd nearly woken up the entire castle with his shrieks. Roxas had to go have his ears checked out.
"So how'd it go?" Luxord waited impatiently for Roxas' reply. He tapped his foot irritably. Roxas seemed to be ignoring him.
"OI! ROXAS!" Roxas looked over.
"WHAT DID YOU SAY!?" Luxord blinked, eyeing the earmuffs that had previously been hidden under Roxas' blond spikes.
"I guess it didn't go so well after all…" he mumbled. I do remember hearing screeching last night… I thought it was Vexen working on his experiment with those banshees… Roxas tried to read his lips, failing miserably.
"SOMETHING ABOUT A GOOD HARVEST THIS YEAR?" Luxord waved his hand in the universal sign for 'never mind'. Roxas looked confused, but nodded and went on his way.
Xaldin blinked wide-eyed at the seemingly infinite river of tears streaming down's Demyx' horrified face.
"Well… that's an interesting story… I'm sorry that happened to you Dem." Xaldin responded to Demyx's bizarre tale, choosing his words carefully due to the fact that he had absolutely no clue what Demyx had said. Demyx nodded, his tears somehow drying up spontaneously, and gave Xaldin a tight hug around the middle.
"T-thank you Xaldy, you're the best." Then he proceeded to run off with no recollection of his fears whatsoever. Xaldin just blinked again.
"Man, I live with some real weirdos…"
