A/N: Wow over a year since I've updated this that's crazy. Alright so I probably just got lazy and didn't feel like updating, but I am now yay! Anyways, I just got back from Youmacon and it was a blast! I realized how much I want to cosplay Mello xD. Without further ado here is your chapter. Sorry for any spelling mistakes!
Disclaimer: I do not own any of the KH characters they belong to Tetsuya Nomura.
Axel dragged Roxas through the various halls in the hotspring resort looking for any signs of people. Xemnas had asked them to gather everyone but finding them would be the hard part, their friends were scattered throughout the whole hotel. As they neared another corner, Roxas pulled Axel back after noticing Larxene walking by, "Hey Larxene wait up!" The blonde tugged on Axel's arm motioning the red head to follw him. Roxas ran around the corner Larxene turned down and instantly had to jump out of the way from flying kunai.
Axel pulled Roxas down to the ground covering the younger boys body with his own to protect him. "Larxene what the hells gotten into you!" He shouted.
Roxas noticed something different about her, he had the feeling it wasn't the real Larxene. Sure she was pregnant, but she couldn't be that pissed. A yelp of surprise left his mouth when Axel rolled pulling him too, trying to dodge another wave of kunai. "Axel it's not the real Larxene! Or at least she's being controlled." Nobody noticed Marluxia walking down the hallway towards them.
"There you are, I've been looking all over for you." Marluxia walked up behind her placing a hand on her shoulder.
"Marluxia don't! It's not her!" Roxas shouted from underneath the red head. Marluxia looked at the blonde with a raised brow, he suddenly felt a sharp pain across his midsection. His hand flew over the spot that was now completly covered in blood from the attack. Axel gritted his teeth in frustration and stood up summoning his chakrams trying to take a slash at the fake woman. In an instant she was gone leaving the three nobodies alone.
"What the hell was that?" Marluxia asked trying to disguise the fact that he was in pain.
"Maybe it's one of the new enemies besides the heartless." Roxas said standing up and running to help the Graceful Assassin to his feet. He slung Marluxia's arm over his shoulder and helped him walk to the lobby where everyone else waited. When they arrived Aerith ran to his side to begin healing him to prolonge the loss of blood, the cut was deep and would take a couples hours for her to heal fully.
"What happened?" Xemnas asked, he walked over to Marluxia and inspected his wound.
"There was someone who looked exactly like Larxene, but it wasn't her she attacked us and Marly kinda got in the way." Roxas whispered quietly. He shifted over to the couch and sat down, he was really tired for some reason and he didn't understand why, all he had been doing all day was relaxing.
Sora looked over at his nobody noticing that he wasn't acting like his usual self, "What's wrong Roxas? You look aweful."
Roxas looked up and smiled, he couldn't exactly tell them what was wrong with him because he didn't know, "I'm fine, I really don't know why I look or feel this way."
Axel sat on the couch next to his partner and brought the blondes head into his lap. He took off his gloves running his hands through the blonde tresses. The red head smiled, he watched the blondes eyes slowly close until he was soon fast asleep. "It looks like all of us are tired, we should get some sleep."
Aerith nodded keeping close eye on Marluxia's wound, "I'll stay up a bit longer to make sure he's ok."
"I'll keep watch, we should change shifts, just in case something happens, or one of those enemies show up again." Xemnas stated from his seat in the couch across from Axel and Roxas. Saix was also using his lap as a pillow, he still had the sleeping effects of the illness and was tired almost all the time.
They're attention was drawn away from each other after they heard something fall to the floor. They looked to the doorway leading to the main hall and saw Cloud dragging in Squall, the gunblade weilder had a large gash across his chest, and blood was leaking from it profusely.
Yuffie gasped loudly and ran to help Cloud carry Squall over to the couch, "Squallie are you ok?!"
Squall grunted in pain when they shifted his body up onto the couch, Aerith left Marluxia who now needed to just rest to take care of Squall's wound. "We were attacked by someone who looked like Marluxia." He looked over at the nobody sitting up against the chair holding his side, "Remind me not to make fun of you again for using flower power."
Marluxia chuckled lightly, "Don't worry, I'll remind you the next time you do."
Riku rubbed his chin deep in thought, "You know...I haven't seen Larxene anywhere. You don't think she disappeared like some of the guests do you?"
"That's not good either seeing as she's eight months pregnant." Demyx said from his perch in Zexion's lap, everyone was there except Larxene, Kairi, and Hayner.
Marluxia winced in pain when he tried to stand up, Aerith ran over to him to stop him, "Marly what are you doing you need to sit down until it's healed!" She grabbed his arm trying to lead him over to the empty chair.
The Graceful Assassin drew back his arm and moved away from her, "I'm going to find her, she could be in danger!"
"We need a plan Marluxia! You can't just go rushing in there!" Axel shouted.
"She's my fucking wife Axel!! You would do the same for Roxas!" He glared daggers at the red head for even thinking something so stupid. After summoning his scythe he walked out of the lobby and down the main hall.
"I don't like this." Zexion muttered, "I say we go after him. If they can take forms of us, who knows what else they could do. I would look more into this but, well, we don't have the time. We should split up into groups and make up some kind of signal to let people know if we're in danger. I have a feeling it's going to be a long night."
Xemnas nodded seeming to agree with his idea, "I'll stay here in the lobby, I'm afraid I won't be of much help with Saix in this condition."
"It's fine don't worry about it, we need him for whats up ahead, he needs to recover as fast as he can." Zexion grabbed Demyx's hand and made his way upstairs, "All of you watch your backs we don't know what they'll try next, try to find Marluxia too if you can."
They turned the corner up the stairs and disappeared out of sight, Demyx grabbed onto Zexion's arm with his other hand leaning in closer. "Zexy, you don't think we'll disappear too...do you?"
"I really don't know Dem, it could be us or one of the others, but one things for sure I'm gonna fight back against whatever this is."
"I'm scared, what- what if something really bad happens. I don't think I could stand it if you got hurt and I couldn't do anything about it." Demyx stopped walking and leaned up against the wall beside him.
Zexion sighed, he knew Demyx was worried but he didn't think the blonde would make that big of a deal out of it, "Dem, everythings going to be fine, you have to trust me on this." The Cloaked Schemer placed his hands on the musicians cheeks, he leaned foreward and placed a chaste kiss on his lips. He pulled back placing his forehead against the blondes, "So after all this gets settled you still wanna get married?"
Demyx laughed nuzzling his nose against the others, "Duh, I'd say that was pretty obvious, we already have all the plans." He tilted his head and leaned in for another kiss. Zexion complied pushing his tongue past his partners all to eager lips. Zexion stopped what he was doing when he heard some weird noises a little ways down the hall. It was an old couple that had been walking and stopped when they noticed the two nobodys making out.
"It disgusts me, why do they let people like that in here." The old man grunted in disapproval. The old man and his wife were taken aback when Zexion went back to kissing the blonde and flipped them the middle finger.
Meanwhile Xemnas was keeping an eye out in the lobby while making sure Saix was ok and wouldn't suddenly get sick because of the symptoms he still had. He noticed something out of the corner of his eye, the silver haired man shifted to look out the window causing the male sleeping in his lap to wake up.
"What is it?" Saix asked lifting his head to look at him.
"I thought I saw something, wait here." Xemnas slowly stood up and cautisouly made his way over to the window. Something came flying at him through the window, it looked alot like Xaldin and carried the same lances as him. Xemnas took out his duel sabers and held them in each hand readying himself for an attack.
The Xaldin look-a-like chuckled, "What? Do you think your a jedi or something?"
Xemnas scowled at him his eyes narrowing into tiny slits, "You know that joke gets really old!!" He shouted charging at the mysterious enemy. He took a slash at him but nothing happend, in the next second the enemy was right behind him and had made a clean cut to his back. He could've sworn he got him, but it was like the enemy just vanished into thin air. The wound brought him to his knee, Xemnas looked up in time to see his mysterious foe leave.
Saix ran to his superior and kneeled to his level, "Are you alright?" Saix had no idea what happened next, he started to have a coughing fit almost like the ones he had when he was still in the hospital.
"Saix, you shouldn't push yourself so much!" Xemnas reached an arm over and pulled the Lunar Diviner into his chest, "Dammit, this is definetly not the time for this to be happening."
