The Merman walked slowly out of the office with Xemnas, letting his wander over everything in the hallway and intaking it all. His eyes flickered to Axel, where they lingered a bit too long, as Xemnas and Zexion both noticed.

"Do you two know each other?" Xemnas asked, putting a hand on the man's sholder.

"He was in Atlantica!" Axel jumped up.

Xemnas looked at the man, then turned to Axel. "Tell the rest of the Organization to meet us in the meeting room."

Axel nodded and left. First, he pounded on Xigbar's door. Xigbar came out, wearing nothing but boxers and rubbing his head. He told him about the meeting, and Xigbar said that he would get dressed and Xaldin and Saix. Axel thanked him and ran down three flights of stairs, down two hallways, and into a room with a heavy metal door. The Science Lab Axel thought as he entered, here he had had a rather regretable experience... All he had wanted was a potion to help his migrane, and he'd accidentaly touched a highly flamable substance. In short terms, the substance combusted and Axel recieved a long lecture from the two Nobodies who spent the most time down here... Vexen and Lexeaus.

"Hello? Is anyone here?" Axel said, being careful not to touch any of the mysterious looking vials and tubs lying around everywhere.

"CONFOUND IT!!" A shrill voice rang across the lab, "I told Xemnas to tell everyone I didn't want any distractions!!! Lexeaus, go see who it is."

Lexeaus wandered out from behind the rows of cabinets with unnameable things in them. When he saw Axel he rolled his eyes as if he was not suprised to see him. "Vexen! It's Axel!"

"Well tell him to leave! I don't want him destroying any of my precious experiments!" Vexen yelled, then he came out from behind cabinets, "Why do you insisit on showing up down here?"

"Well FYI, Vexen, I wouldn't come down here on my freewill anytime soon. But Xemnas has called a meeting, and you two are required to come." Axel said.

Vexen rubbed his head, "Fine we'll be up there in a few minutes..."

"Whatever..." Axel said walking out the door nad warping to the meeting room. Xigbar and Zexion were the only ones in there. Xigbar greeted him with a wave and cocky smile.

"Xaldin and Saix are on their way and Xemnas will bring the new guy in when everybody is here. Did you get Vexen and Lexeaus?" He asked.

"They're on their way." Axel said, taking a seat.

The rest of the Organization trickled into the meeting room over about five minutes. They all had seats that corrisponded with their number in the Organization, and Axel realized that another seat had bean added next to his.

Xemnas walked in with the new guy. The Superior sat in his seat (which was the tallest of the now nine seats). The new guy had dirty blond hair that stuck up in a mullot-mohawk type thing and his eyes were blue with a greed tinge to them. He had been given an Organization jacket, but continued to look at it confused. Why is he confused? Axel wondered, When I was given the jacket and Xemnas told me what I was, I was a bit disappointed, but I still had a sence of pride that these Nobodies wanted me to join their Organization. This guy looks as if he'd really rather not be here. The new Nobody stood in the center of the room and awaited Xemnas's questioning and approval.

"State your Other's name." Xemnas said in the most reagal voice he could conjure up.

"M-Medy." The Nobody said, now staring at his feet.

"State where you are from." Xemnas got settled into his seat for the long questionare.

"Atlantica."

"State how you died."

Medy's Nobody looked up at me for a second, then turned back to Xemnas. "There was an ambush of black creatures-"

"Heartless..." Xemnas interupted.

"Uh, sure. And I fought them off for a while with some help, but in the end-" he swallowed, "it was useless."

Xemnas stared at him, then smiled and said "State why you should join the Organization."

"I don't have anywhere else to go, and I can fight pretty well... well enough to some help. I'm not really sure yet what's going on, but this path seems as good as any at the moment."

The Organization looked at one another, trying to see what each person thought of the Nobody put before them. Everyone started whispering to each other and a low murmur started and grew. Xemnas raised his hands, and the room fell silent.

"We shall vote!" he said, "We shall vote on weather or not the Nobody of Medy will join the Organization." Xemnas voted yes, Xigbar voted yes, Xaldin voted no, Vexen voted no, Lexeaus voted no, Zexion voted yes, Saix voted no, and Axel voted yes.

"It is a tie!" Xemnas shouted.

No duh! thought Axel, but what are they going to do now?

Axel's question was answered right after words. Xemnas walked over to meeting room door, picked up a ceramic pot that had been placed there during one of Vexen's "We need to make this place more decorative!" lectures, and chucked it across the room at the new guy.

"What the-" the Nobody ducked, "WHAT ON EARTH WAS THAT FOR!!!"

"He ducked!" Xemnas returned to his seat, "He is now in the Organization!"

The room went silent, until Xigbar said, "Man, you've lost it. Anyways, the kid's in. He'll need a new name."

Xaldin looked thoughtful for a moment and said, "Exmyd."

Zexion shook his head and said, "Mydex."

Vexen added, "Yexdm."

"Demyx." The Organization looked around to see who had mentioned the name. Axel stood up and repeated, "Demyx."

Xemnas nodded his head, "Good, it's good. You!" the new member looked up, startled, "How would you like that name, Demyx?"

He nodded his head. Man, he dosen't know what he's getting into.

"Then we welcome you, Demyx number Nine, to the Organization!" Xemnas said, "The meeting is over. Axel, show Demyx where he will be staying and inform him on what he is to do."

Axel walked up to Demyx and held out his hand and he shook it. Demyx looked almost releaved at the sight of Axel.

"Well, your doomed now." Axel teased.

"I guess so." he said looking around the room as the rest of the Organization left. "I think you are supposed to tell me where to go."

"Yeah, it should be near my room, as the Organization has to do everything in order."

He let out a small laugh, but then looked at his feet. He looks so hopeless. Demyx lifted his head and stared staight into Axel's eyes, and he realized exactly what was wrong.

"I'm sorry about what happened in the sunken ship."

"It- it dosen't matter anymore." Demyx said, "Forget it."

Axel led Demyx up three levels to the one of the many empty rooms, "Take your pick."

Demyx walked up to a random room. "I guess this works."

"It should, because all the rooms here look exactly the same."

Demyx shruged. They entered the room and Big suprise. It looks just like mine. Axel thought. They both fixed the place up a bit, then sat down the bed. Axel explained exactly what Demyx would have to do on a mission and what the Organization was working for. They talked for awhile, just simply getting to know each other and letting Demyx get settled a bit into this strange new world and life.

Axel got up to leave, but as he did so he heard Demyx say, "Thanks. For helping me."

"What else are friends for?"
