A Hundred of Her Memories

96 – Unicorn

He'd told her not to eat the orange mushrooms. But they were so pretty, and they were everywhere and the Striped Cat said they were okay. She couldn't resist.

Now look where I am…

"Is't just me, or dida pair of green unicorns just run across the room?" she slurred. Her tongue stopped working.

"No, Xion, it's just you. There's no such thing as unicorns."

"But I coulda sworn-" Her legs gave way from underneath her. Axel caught her before she hit the ground.

He sighed and opened a Dark Corridor. "I told you, 'Don't eat orange mushrooms.'"

"But they looked like caramel candy," Xion giggled, looking adoringly up into his eyes. Axel was taken aback for a moment and stared back. "You just don't like sweets," she deduced. "That's why you said not to eat it."

He clicked his tongue in annoyance and looked away. "That's not why." They were in the Grey Area now, and a Saïx was still there, waiting for sleepy-head Roxas. Axel started toward the hallway.

"Hm… You," she almost poked his eye out pointing at him. "Are a liar. When you don't look at me, I know you're lying."

This startled the redhead. "That's not-"

"Still not looking at me," she huffed, crossing hers clumsily across her chest; her arms were beginning to tingle too. Saïx looked oddly at them, particularly at the still-conscious-Xion in Axel's arms.

Axel turned his charm on full throttle and grinned dazzlingly at her. "Xion, I don't think the mushrooms look like candy, and next time, do as I say."

"Mm-kay," she hummed and tucked her head against his shoulder, subdued. "But I really did see those unicorns…"

"Whatever you say, kid."

A/N: I feel so bad for all of you who read this fanfiction! I'm bad at updating. :( But, due to Kingdom Hearts 1.5 coming out soon, my love for 358/2 Days has been renewed. I have finally finished Xion's challenge! I will update these as soon as I can, and in a way that won't overload you.

Is anyone else excited about the 1.5 Remix?! :D

I have been writing a book, so that's why I haven't been writing on fanfiction, but I think I have a handle for my schedule of word-count and I'm trying to juggle the two things now. :)

A/N/2: The green unicorns is a quote from Fringe, with Walter, in case you were wondering.
