Something was wrong. Something was sooooo wrong! Saïx eyes twitched with anticipation as he ran from room to room in the castle. He accidentally walked in on Xaldin who was getting dressed. The Whirlwind Lancer screamed in rage when he knew that Saïx had seen his ducky boxers and chucked one of his lances at Moon Man.

"Sorry!" Saïx growled and moved to the next room. Lexaeus and Zexion were playing Halo III…typical. "Not here!"

By the time he had checked ever nook and cranny of the castle, he was exhausted and had to slump down in a chair in the foyer. It was less than two minutes before Axel stormed in, flaming mad…literally. Saïx had never seen him so furious. "What's up, man?"

"STOP PLASTERING MY ELVIS POSTERS OUTSIDE MY ROOM!!!! THOSE WERE EXPENSIVE, YA KNOW!" Axel screamed. Saïx looked at him with a raised eyebrow.

"What are you talking about, hag? I did nothing of the sort?" Saïx said. Axel grabbed him by the scruff and pulled him forward.

"You big fat liar! I watched you do it!" Axel snapped.

"Don't shout your smelly breath in my face, hothead, I think Snowflake's up to something!"

"Am I missing something?" Saïx asked from the side. Axel looked up. He look back at the man he had been screaming at. He looked at the newcomer and at Saïx again. They were the same.

"You…." The real Saïx said already going berserk. The Saïx II grinned stupidly and bolted the opposite direction. Before another word could be spoken, Axel and Saïx darted after him.

Chasing the Saïx clone was more difficult than they expected. He was as agile and quick-footed as the real Saïx. Eventually, they passed Vexen's room, but Axel stopped. "Saïx, wait!"

The berserk man halted instantly and turned, eyes still glowing with fury. "What?"

"Payback," Axel said, walking to Vexen's door. It was locked, naturally, but Axel's flames were more powerful than the lock…but Vexen's door withstood the fire. "Drat…"

"Move," Saïx said. He suddenly whipped his hands around in many strange forms and finally thrust his hand down, "KUCHIYOSE NO JUTSU!"

With that, a giant green snake appeared. It was so big, that its body nearly filled the hallway. As if secretly cued, the snake rammed its head into the door, caving it in. Dizzy and bewildered, the snake disappeared. Meanwhile, Axel had fainted from shock.

Saïx stormed into the room and gazed around. He found the shocked scientist, mixing a pink chemical into water, but he had stopped to look up with a wide-eyed expression. "Eh?"

"You're dead!" Saïx growled and grabbed the nearest beaker. Without thinking, he chucked it at the Chilly Academic who had no time to react.

BANG!

POOF

SIZZLE

Two Hours Later

Marluxia sighed as he gazed at the fresh pot of flowers by his bed. The flowers were shaped like sakuras but were made completely of ice. In each petal was a grumpy looking face…Vexen's face.

"You don't know how much better you look, Vexy," Marluxia said.
