Demyx: I'm still in shock...
Me: Just don't tell Xybaile.
Xybaile: Tell me what?
Me and Demyx: Nothing!
Me: Since it's Larxene's chapter number, she'll say the disclaimer.
Larxene: *Glare* Violet Eclipse 1314 doesn't own Kingdom Hearts.
Me: Good girl. *Pats her head and backs away slowly when she growls*
Chapter 12: What else can happen now?
I yawned and stretched in bed. As I opened my eyes, a smile spread across my lips as I remembered what happened yesterday. 'The only time I'm glad I sleep walk!' I think and walk out into the dining room. I see everyone but Irmax and Axel there. I chuckle silently. 'Typical...' I sit down next to Xion and, to my surprise, she looks as if she doesn't hate me. I know for sure she heard me and Roxas talking last night.
"Just in time." She smiled.
"Don't you hate me?" I whispered.
She shook her head. "I figured out by the way he looked at you."
I blushed slightly and ate my bowl of cereal... When did that get there? Anyways, I ate my cereal and noticed Demyx kept giving me weird looks. I looked at him curiously as I got up and walked over to Saïx for my mission. "What's up Moon man?" I ask him. He gives his usual glare that sends me into a stiff position. Man, his glare is scary...
"You're going to Twilight Town with Marluxia to fight some of the heartless." He replies in a monotone voice.
"I work better with Roxas." I say. I don't want to work with Marluxia. I never really liked him.
"No, you're working with Marluxia."
"But, it's easier for us." I argue.
"The answer is still no."
Third time's the charm? "But-"
"GREAT KINGDOM HEARTS! THE ANSWER IS NO! YOU'RE GOING TO TWILIGHT TOWN WITH MARLUXIA AND THERE'S NO WAY YOU CAN SWAY THE CHOICE OF WHO YOU'RE GOING WITH!"
... Alright, who made that stupid saying? I walked away slowly and glared at Saïx the whole way. I walked over to where Marluxia's garden was. "Come on Marluxia." I said reluctantly. He was talking with Larxene-wait, she doesn't have grouchy look on her face. Does-
"What is it Xybaile?" He asked.
"We have a mission." I replied around the wooden wall I hid behind when I ran from Roxas after I saw him kissing Xion.
"Alright. Let's go." Marluxia walked out of his garden and began to head to a Dark Corridor. I walked after him and saw Tikal leaving on a mission with Demyx and Irmax going with Zexion. I heard just as I was leaving Axel's voice talking with Xelna about his awesome "Flames of Death." aka his element.
I stepped through the Dark Corridor and saw Marluxia was gone. "What? We just got here!" I walked through the whole town and finally found him in an alleyway... He was sucking face with Larxene. "... Suspicion confirmed..." I whispered and walked away. 'Well, nothing really left to do.' I thought as I walked around town absently. 'Wonder how Tikal, Irmax, and Xelna are doing on their missions? I bet Axel has driven X-'
"Look out!" Someone's voice coming quickly broke my thoughts. I looked to where the voice was coming from and saw someone right in front of me. We collided fell to the ground hard. The person landed on top of me and I groaned in pain. "Sorry! Are you alright?" The person got off of me and I saw it was a boy about my age. He had beautiful brown eyes and brown hair that came just about to his shoulders. He held a light hand to help me up.
"I'll be fine." I accepted his hand and dusted myself off. He was just a bit shorter than me. "What's your name?"
"Rikel. What's yours?" He asked. Rikel was wearing a red t-shirt that had a picture of a lion on it and jeans. I saw that there was a skateboard nearby. He must have been riding that down hill when we collided.
"Xybaile." I replied.
"You live around here Xybaile?"
"Kinda." I rubbed the back of my head. We started walking around town talking about a bunch of stuff. I found out that he's smart, a leader, funny, and kinda cute... Stupid emotions! We ended up near the woods and I remembered something. I had taken the names from my notebook and they're still in my pocket! "I've got to go Rikel." I said.
"Want to meet up again tomorrow?" He asks innocently.
I smile. "I'd love to." I say before I even think about it. "You know you can't." A voice in the back of my head says. "You JUST got with Roxas!"
"Wait," I force myself to say. Rikel looks at me. "I can't. I'm busy tomorrow."
"You have a boyfriend don't you?" He asks suddenly. His brown eyes dulled for a minute.
I nod. "Yeah."
"I understand. Goodbye Xybaile." He walked away with his hands in his pockets.
"Bye Rikel." I mumble. When he's out of hearing distance, I grumble, "Great Kingdom Hearts... I just had to fall for two guys at the same time..." Without a thought, Roxas is my first choice, but Rikel's almost making me doubt myself.
"Hey Xybaile!" I heard a familiar voice behind me.
"Hey Zara." I turned around. "Is Scarlet coming?"
She shakes her head. "Nah, she has to have her final exam tomorrow. She's training for it."
"Okay then." I walk over to her. I pull out the piece of paper with the names. "Here you go."
She quickly reads over them. "Nice." She slips them into her pouch. "So, what's new in the Organization?"
"Well," I begin to tell her about the singing contest and about Xelna. I also mentioned Irmax and Axel-who I call Irmaxel- when she cut me off.
"Wait, Axel?" Her eyes looked slightly surprised.
"Yeah. What about him?"
"Nothing. Continue."
I continued talking with Zara until I saw something move behind her. I glanced over Zara's shoulder and said, "Hey, who's that?"
She looked behind her and I heard her breath hitch. I put my hand on her shoulder. "Zara? You okay?"
She flicked my hand off to face this boy. He had navy black hair to the top of his lightly tanned neck and gray eyes. He was wearing a robe similar to Zara's. I was loose fitting, blue with a golden belt, and had matching golden sandals. His robe was dirty as though he'd been on the ground for a long time. "Hey Zara!" He smirked at her. "Long time so see, literally."
"Aidan..."
Me: Bet you didn't see that one coming! Sorry for not updating for a while. I had a busy month with basketball and softball games. Until next time!
