Author's note: I'M NOT A VIRGIN!
Now that I have your attention, PLEASE READ THIS. And read the rest of these, too. I LIKE it when people know what I have to say… so anyway, yeah, sorry it was late, there's this thing called Life that gets in my way and stops me from writing.
Yeah, sorry I've been gone for a while… I was on vacation, and I was smashed with a bunch of work. Whoops. D: But for now, here's chapter three:D
And also, as a signature of mine, all of my third chapters are incredibly short, including this one. So deal. The fourth chapter is usually much longer though, so… nyah. :3
Disclaimer: No, I don't own Kingdom Hearts II, or its characters and worlds. Really. I don't.
WARNING: Mature yaoi, hardcore stuff, violence, cursing, all that jazz. Will contain lemon… maybe a few lemons, not sure yet.
Things in Italics are Aïs/Saïx's thoughts. Chapter 3: Contemplation---------------
For the first time in this strange world, when Saïx woke up, he wasn't in complete darkness. There was a faint glow coming from the window, and he had to almost crane his head upwards to see what it was. It seemed to be a heart-shaped moon, illuminating the room for Saïx to see. How strange, were moons supposed to be shaped like hearts? This world was just getting stranger and stranger by the minute. A heart shaped moon…
Even stranger than the shape of the moon was the power that was coming from it. Never had the blunette ever felt this sort of feeling in him. It seemed as though pure power was running through his blood, making him just want to attack anything that came into his path.
Just as he was thinking this, he noticed that something had begun to float up past the shining moon. It was small and pink, and tiny golden sparks would lightly fall off of it as it rose into the heavens. Suddenly, the pink object stopped floating, and almost seemed to be absorbed into the moon itself. Saïx gasped at this; what the hell was going on?!
"That, Saïx, was a heart."
Said man turned his head around to see Xemnas there, standing in the room and watching the moon as well. He had seemed to have come in silently, and he did want to find out how such a large man was able to get in as silent as a cat. He only smiled faintly towards the man called the Superior before turning back towards the window. "Why is the moon shaped like a heart?" he asked curiously, frowning at it. The world had only seemed to get weirder and weirder as time went on, and he was curious to know how this was.
Xemnas chuckled, moving closer to Saïx, but still keeping his gaze outside the window. "Ah, what you see out there isn't really a moon, Saïx. It's called Kingdom Hearts." Seeing that the bluenette was still confused, he continued on to explain the strange moon. "You see, Nobodies like myself have no hearts, like I explained to you yesterday. The only way we can become normal again—the only way to be real again—is to rebuild the wondrous Kingdom Hearts. We can only do this by collecting other hearts, stolen by those hideous Heartless. Saïx, our purpose is to only destroy those wretched creatures and get our hearts back—is it really all that bad?"
Saïx listened to Xemnas intently, very curious to what he had to say. "Get our hearts back?" he repeated. "So then, we're not completely lost, are we?"
"No, not at all."
"So if I were to join, then—"
"Yes, yes, we would try to get your heart back as well."
"How many people are in this… 'group' already?"
"Six. You would be the seventh to join our cause. Do you wish me to give you some time alone?"
Saïx hesitated, and after a few seconds shook his head. "No, no, I already know my answer," he said quietly, smiling faintly now.
"Oh? And what is that, then?"
"I-I think I would like to join your… organization."
The smile on the Superior's face couldn't be any bigger as he nodded only slightly, picking his newest member up by the wrist. "Good then, it wasn't like I was going to give you a choice anyway," he said, smile fading into a smirk. "I suppose I could simply find a spare cloak for you, and… well, we can figure out what you're capable of later."
"What I'm capable of?" Saïx frowned again; this was going too fast. Only minutes ago was Saïx alone, thinking about the moon/Kingdom Hearts, and now he's in some sort of organization?
What the hell had he gotten himself into?
"Yes, I'm talking about your… 'power.' You see, we must be strong in order to fight off some Heartless, and we were all thankfully granted with wondrous powers. You remember Vexen, right? The man who was in here earlier?" Saïx nodded simply. "Well, he can sort of control ice. We have a wind user, a sniper who can almost defy gravity, and… well, you'll just have to find out for yourself."
"What about your power, then? What can you do?"
A creepy grin appeared on Xemnas' face, making Saïx shudder. "That is something you'll have to find out on your own… Now then, your power, we can probably put you in battle and—"
"In battle?!" Saïx cried.
Xemnas' expression seemed to have changed, even though he couldn't feel. He walked right over to Saïx, putting his face only inches away from the blunette's. "Yes, battle. If you can't battle, you might as well be a Dusk, the worst of the Nobodies. And I believe you don't want that, right?" As Saïx shook his head, Xemnas retreated a bit, still with a bit of an angry look on his face. "Unless you already know what your power is, which I highly doubt."
"Well actually," Saïx started, "I think I have some sort of idea…"
Xemnas raised an eyebrow, ready to listen.
"I think… I think that I draw power from the mo—Kingdom Hearts, somehow. You see, when I was alone, I felt this… power, rushing through me. I've never felt that way before… do you think that could've been it?"
"Possibly. I would need more 'proof' that you get your power from the moon, but if you are right, then you would definitely make a very interesting person, Saïx." With a smirk he began to leave the room, beckoning Saïx to come. "Come along now, I need you to meet the other members of the Organization, get acquainted with them, feel comfortable with them… and Saïx, you may call me Superior now, since I am your real Superior."
Saïx furrowed his brows together before getting up, following Xemnas almost like a puppy. "Yes… Superior." Said man smirked at this, beginning to walk down the long corridors of Saïx's new home.
