"So what're you trying to make now, Vexen?" The Savage Nymph closed the door to Vexen's lab by leaning back against it. Normally she wouldn't come near his lab -especially since it was in the basement levels of Castle Oblivion-, but today she was feeling tremendously bored...

"Quiet, neophyte." Vexen normally didn't mind people being in his lab as he worked but there were two things that he didn't like about Larxene visiting. One: she talked and talked and almost never stopped. Two: She was Larxene, and that right there says enough.

"But Vexie," Larxene drawled. "Why would I listen to you?"

Vexen looked up from his notes and stared at her coolly as she called him 'Vexie'. "Because I'm a higher rank than you. Eight ranks if you want to be precise."

"What if I don't want to be precise?" The blonde girl rolled her eyes.

"Then you should make yourself useful somewhere else or go bother Axel instead of me."

Larxene half glared at the scientist. "Now now, Vexie. It wouldn't be smart for me to hang around Axel. You'd have to be deaf not to hear the rumors Demyx already spreads about us. At this rate the whole Organization will think I'm already married to Axel, and quite frankly I'm not." She spat out the last two words.

Vexen couldn't resist. He raised an eyebrow and asked, "'Already' you say? Does that mean that you're planning to get married to Axel sometime in the future?"

Larxene glared and flushed out of anger -though it could have quite possibly been out of embarrassment- as she grabbed a beaker filled with some kind of liquid and threw it at him. Using his element of ice he froze the contents of the beaker as it flew towards him; half to stop the contents from flying out and half to slow it down since it was coming at him very quickly, since the thrower was used to throwing kunai which were probably heavier. Since it had been slowed down he was able to catch it before it hit him without using too much effort. Despite being an 'old man', as Axel and Roxas liked to always put it, he could move surprisingly fast.

He used his element again, this time to defrost it and he stared curiously at the brown-gray liquid, not quite remembering when or why he made it or even what it was. He was grateful though that it wasn't one of the chemicals he occasionally made that would explode from being frozen. Since it wasn't one of the chemicals that was likely to explode maybe he would use Demyx as a lab rat later and see if he could match up the results with any of the records he had made...

He quickly refroze it and placed it on the table he had been taking notes on and walked around to the front of the table so that he was facing Larxene and the table was behind him. He grinned at Larxene. It was a grin that Demyx had once labeled as a 'mad scientist' grin. "Surely you know, Larxene, that protesting in such ways only proves that I am right?" Larxene's eyes blazed but now she was clearly holding back protesting again. Vexen kept grinning and continued, "So I suppose now I'll ask again now. Are you planning to somehow be engaged to Axel in the future? Perhaps even the near future?" He stared straight into her furious green eyes. Unlike earlier, she now didn't protest to the statement. Vexen could only keep grinning. "So you're not denying it? So then you're obviously guilty."

The Savage Nymph let out a frustrated scream and through a storm of kunai at Vexen. The kunai were easily deflected by a quickly summoned shield and they clattered uselessly to the floor, not even leaving a small dent in the icy blue shield.

"Hmm. I did try to tell The Superior that neophytes can't fight." He shrugged and sighed, somehow managing to supress his grin for a few moments.

"Why you..." Larxene growled as she quickly cast down a thundaga at him and as Vexen was blocking the lightning she threw more kunai at him. She glared as the Chilly Academic somehow saw the kunai coming and ducked down with his shield over his head, still blocking the lightning but letting the kunai fly over him. Sadly for Vexen though, most of the kunai landed on the table he had been working at, ripping straight through the papers he had been taking notes on.

As he got back up Larxene could see that his grin had resurfaced on his face since his earlier comment. If Larxene wasn't angry right now she probably would have made some joke that he had probably grinned more today than he had in his whole life.

"Ah, Number Twelve, your actions are as predictable as always. But if you keep distracting me from my experiment then I may half to find some way to keep you still." Then he added, "Being still includes you not being able to talk, of course."

Larxene readying herself to through more kunai told him, "You can't trap lightning." Speaking of which, she quickly decided instead of throwing kunai she would strike him with a thundaga, just for the sake of her statement. She raised her arm up straight... and found herself encased in layers of ice. Her eyes were the only external part of her that could still move. Through them she saw Vexen bent over for a couple of moments, obviously drained from surrounding her with so much ice.

As soon as he steadied himself and straightened up he resumed grinning. "That should hold you still for a while." He turned back to his table and proceeded in attempting to yank the kunai out of the table and his papers.

Larxene slowly started feeling lightheaded as the cold from the ice started making her numb. She was grateful that she was a Nobody, because for some reason Nobodies could withstand extreme temperatures for longer periods of time than normal people. But she wasn't really bothering to think of how she could withstand the temperatures for a bit longer than normal. She was more into wondering how she was still breathing. Or was she...? She tried to gather her remaining thoughts together hoping to think of a way to break free of her ice prison and the only useful thought she got was 'lightning'. Lightning was supposed to be hotter than the sun after all. Or was it that lightning was brighter...? Well no matter. The point was that lightning was reeeally hot. She tried casting thundaga out of her hands and though the lightning surprisingly couldn't break free of the ice it did a great job of melting it. As soon as she melted enough ice, she brought down her arm that was still held above her, it had been frozen that way when she had been about to cast a thundaga earlier.

After she was completely defrosted she sank down to the ground, not quite out of exhaustion but because being frozen had, for some reason, made her unwilling to stand up. As soon as she felt recovered she stood up out of the puddle of melted ice and glared at Vexen. He still seemed thoroughly involved in yanking out a kunai that seemed unwilling to be brought out from the table and he probably didn't even notice her escape from her enclosure. As silent as she could with water soaked boots, she walked towards Vexen. He really deserved to pay for trapping her like that. And since he had done it with his element, she would get revenge with her element. She would zap him so hard that he would be in a coma for months. Right now she didn't care how angry the Superior would be at her for doing it. And besides, surely trapping someone with ice wouldn't appeal to the Superior either... As soon as she got close enough, she reached out her hand towards Vexen's shoulder... And she nearly jerked back in surprise as Vexen whipped around and grabbed her wrist. ...He was definitely fast for someone his age.

"Tsk tsk, Larxene. Need I remind you how predictable you are?"

The Savage Nymph was now seriously considering spitting right in his face which was probably less than six inches away from her own. If anyone walked in they would probably wonder what was going on. Them being so close together and of course with Vexen still holding her wrist. Hmm... Now instead of spitting in his face Larxene got a better idea.

"I'm predictable, Vexie? Well how predictable is this?" She quickly leaned in and kissed him.

But then again maybe she was predictable... After all, it didn't take more than one or two moments for Vexen to kiss back.

And it all started with Vexen asking if Larxene planned to marry Axel. XD

Anyways...

Psh. I half feel like I ripped the title from Sparrowfan07 because she wrote a VexenxLarxene story and named it Chilled Lightening.
But at least my title made sense with the story. XP

Disclaimer: I don't own Kingdom Hearts... boo...

Now... I suppose I'll write the requests...

Requests:

Larxene x Xemnas
Larxene x Axel
Larxene x Saix
Larxene x Vexen
Larxene x Zexion
Kairi x Zexion
Vexen x Zexion
Marluxia x Saix
Xemnas x Saix
Xigbar x Xaldin
Fuu x Xaldin

Wow... I don't think I've gotten any new requests. I'm thoroughly amazed. XD

Well...
I guess my only news I can tell you for the status of the requests that you haven't heard is...
That the Kairi x Zexion idea crashed and burned. Huge bursts of flames. Really.
It turned out that the idea I had strictly went against the time line events.
I learned that the time that I planned for him to meet Kairi was after the time that he died. XD
So I'll have to work up a new idea for that one I guess...

Anyways... On a side note to one of the reviewers, I don't think Roxas and Namine met before Twilight Town because Namine says when she first meets him there, "I wanted to meet you at least once."
So somehow I don't think they met before that time...

Anyways, I have no clue what pairing the next chapter will be.
Maybe Larxene x Xemnas but I have no idea really.
I'm kind of getting bored of this story and thus creates a lack of inspiration.

Please review! And/Or send in a request!
