Alexus' Point of View
Mr. Xemnas approached my house with me on his shoulders. I would have asked him to put me down sooner, but I didn't feel like walking. When we got there, he set me down. A boy with long blue hair, yellow eyes, and an "X" shaped scar on his forehead stood before the door. I noticed that he was wearing the same black coat as Mr. Xemnas. "Has Ralene come at all?" Mr. Xemnas asked.
"Yes, sir. Ralene has attempted multiple times to gain access to the house without success thus far." The boy stated.
"Excellent, keep up the good work, and you might just get a promotion. Alexus, this is Saix. He's an employee of mine." Mr. Xemnas introduced.
"Do you run a business?" I asked Mr. Xemnas.
"Not exactly. It's a bit complicated. I'm sure that I'll have time to explain later." Mr. Xemnas replied.
My best friend Joe ran up to my house. "Alexus, my mother and aunts have something that they need to give you," Joe said.
"Why didn't they give it to me at the funeral?" I questioned.
"I don't know. I think it's really important." Joe replied.
"Who are you, boy?" Mr. Xemnas asked.
"I am Joseph Trak. My mother asked me to get Alexus so that she can get something that was from her mother." Joe introduced.
"Trak… Alexus, why don't you go with him? I will come by to pick you up later." Mr. Xemnas decided.
"Okay." I agreed. I hadn't even asked if he knew where I was going. I just want to get away from him. I took Joe's hand, and we started to walk.
"You want to talk about it?" Joe asked.
"No. Do you mind not asking questions? I'm exhausted." I replied.
"Lex, we have been best friends for as long as I can remember. Of course, I won't make you do more than you can handle." He said.
"In that case, I'm tired. How about giving me a piggyback ride?" I smiled.
"No." He smirked.
"Aw, come on! You're so mean!" I whined. He ran up ahead and stuck his tongue out at me.
"Oh, you're going to get it!" I shouted as I chased after him. When I thought I had him, I tried to jump on him, but he was too quick, and I landed on the grass. I giggled as I rolled over to look at the sky.
Joe held his hand out and helped me up. "It's good to see you back to your old self again." He smiled.
"Yeah… it is." I agreed.
Alright! Chapter 2! Just so you guys know, I kind of fixed some things in the first chapter, and I did make some minor changes, so I would recommend giving it one more read. I probably won't continue to change things, so it's most likely just going to be the one, but I can't make any promises.
