Chapter 31


Neox was sitting on a in the gray area, with Calixa lying face down on the couch next to him. He was staring at Bàli and Xero who were in a lip lock on the other side of the room. "I wonder how they breathe?" he commented.

"It's probably practice," the girl replied, rolling to her side. She winched slightly, her back still a little sore. Vexen said she's make a full recovery, but she'd probably have the scars the rest of her life. "What really gets me is that two days ago Bàli hated him."

"Why would it upset you?" Neox asked, looking over his shoulder at her.

"It doesn't upset me; it's more like it doesn't make sense. Remember when we tried to get them together. That was a disaster."

"Well... yeah. I guess. But do you want to know? I can ask them."

"Na, I don't care."

"Then why is that a problem now?"

"I'm just curious because we tried really hard to get them together, without it working. And then they go on a mission together and as soon as they came back there in love?" Calixa explained in bewilderment. "I mean what happened on that mission?"

"Not sure. Roxas said it isn't kids' business," Neox replied. Calixa just sighed


Bàli and Xero were in the middle of a make out session. Xero's hands were becoming dangerously explorsive. The Aussie suddenly broke the kiss and whispered seductively, "Should we take this to my room…" he kissed her in the neck.

A soft moan fell from Bàli's lips and she leaned back against the couch they sat on. When Xero's hands started to trail down her side, she pushed him away. "Xero we can't."

The orange haired teen pouted, "Why not, what about the other day when we were captured."

"Well, I was very emotional then. And I gave into a weakness," Bàli replied.

Xero persisted to pout, so she continued. "I'm sorra, but it goes agisnt mi religion. Nae sex until marriage."

"Then what are we supposed to do get married?"

Bàli gave him a look, like she thought he was joking, "Like de surperior woulds eva let us."

"You never knoooow~" he said teasingly, moving closer to her. She just rolled her eyes. Xero sighed and laid back, smiling, "Can we at least go out tonight?"

"All right, jist nae sex," she agreed.

He jumped up and opened a portal. "After you mi lady," he said bowing and motioned for her to go before him.

She giggled and walked through the portal. Xero walked in afterwards, and as soon as the portal closed, Demyx walked in. "Guess what everyone!" he announced.

"You bought another Sitar Hero game?" Neox asked flatly.

"No, Xemnas wants to go to Las Vegas!"

"Xemnas Whaaaaaa?" everyone screamed in joy. Even Saïx was happy about this.

"Why would the superior want to go to such a vile place?" Zexion asked with raised eyebrows.

"Vile? Bookworm, you got no taste." Xigbar said, laughing.

"People go there to throw there munny away," Zexion insisted.

"And get laid," Neox said. All eyes turned to him. "What?" he asked confused as to why everyone was now looking at him strangely.

"Neox, where did you hear that term..." Calixa asked him slowly.

"From Xero," the boy replied simply.

Zexion face palmed. "He didn't explain it, did he?" Calixa asked.

"Nope."

Everybody sighed in relief. "Speaking of the Aussie, where is he?" Axel asked looking around.

"He and Bàli left a bit ago," Calixa said.

"Well someone go find them, we need to get going. Superior says we're leaving ASAP," Demyx announced.

Roxas was given the task of going to find there foreign members, while everyone else went to pack. The boy sighed and went to the first world that came to his mind, Port Royal. Luckily he chose right, the two were in one of the worlds bars.

"And that's how I got my arm broken! Be jealous assholes!" Xero laughed, standing the counter and laughing drunkenly.

Roxas walked over to Bàli who didn't look too happy to be there, "What happened to him?" he asked.

"Oh, Roxas..." she looked up at him then glared at Xero, "E' drunk 'imself Glaikit..."

"At least he's not violent," Roxas told her sympathetically.

"Aye... well excep for 'at bloke who tripped ova his own legs. Xero bashed 'im..."

"Well superior has a mission for the entire organization so let's bring him back."

"Who you callin' a wuss!" Xero said, getting in a guy's face.

Roxas walked over to older teen and grabbed his arm, "Come on lets go."

Xero looked at him and then grinned, picking Roxas up, "HELL YEAH! ITS MY BUD!" he laughed, his breath smelling thickly of alcohol.

The orange haired Nobody suddenly passed out. Roxas not expecting this, collapsed under his weight, making the entire bar explode with laughter. "Bàli help?" the blonde boy called.

She walked over and lifted Xero up with a bit of struggle. The two blondes were able to bring Xero though a portal together. Roxas explained what was going on as they went, "Xemnas is taking us all to Vegas."

"Realla?" she asked just as bewildered as everyone else.

"Yup, that was my reaction."

They reappeared in the gray area with an unconscious Xero. Neox took notice of them, sitting on what appeared to be a platform floating in the air, made completely of darkness. "Hey, you're here." he greeted flatly.

"What happened to him?" Calixa asked referring to Xero.

"E' drank himself tae idiocy" Bàli answered coldly.

Neox and Calixa nodded, noticing the venom in her voice. Both remembered how Bàli felt about alcohol, and winced at the memory of when she caught them drinking beer. Roxas noticed and gave them a questioning look but neither obliged to answer it. It was decided that they would have to leave in the morning, mostly because of Xero. But most were happy because it gave them more time pack.

"Ooooooooooohhhhhh my heeeeeead..." Xero groaned from the couch, his head resting on Bàli's lap. He had a serious hangover.

"Ye brought it on yurself," the blonde girl replied, running her hands though his orange hair.

It was the next morning, everyone was pretty much packed and waiting for Xemnas to arrive. Neox was fast asleep, head on Calixa's lap, and Larxene was amusing herself by zapping Demyx and Luxord every time they nearly fell asleep. Finally Xemnas walked in, "Is everyone ready?"

"Yes!" Everyone said, indigent by now.

Saïx created a portal, and everyone file though. Xero was limping through, with Bàli yelping support him. Xero couldn't wait to get to Vegas, because he knew that the best cure for a hangover is to drink more alcohol. Bàli wanted to keep an eye on him, to make sure he stayed out of trouble. They all appeared in Venetian Hotel, and many gasps sounded as they all stared in awe. By the looks of how it was built, it felt like they just walked into Italy. The roof was make up to look like the sky, and statures were everywhere. Not to mention there was a complete mall inside.

"Whooooooaaa!" Neox said looking around in awe.

"Shopping!" Calixa, Larxene and Xion's eyes widened as they looked at it.

"Oh brother," Neox and Roxas rolled there eyes.

Then… their eyes landed on a room full of games that lit up. "Look there's an arcade," Neox pointed out.

"... Meetcha later, guys!" Roxas and Neox said in unison as they, along with Demyx, ran straight into the room.

But Axel stepped in front of them, "Hold up a second guys. That's not an arcade."

"Wha? Of course it is!" Neox said indignantly, bouncing on his heels.

"No it's called a Casino, and your have to be 21 to play there. Think of it as an arcade for adults."

There was a silence before Demyx walked around Axel, "Oh well, 20 is good enough!" he said, and then darted toward the Casino.

Axel just shook his head. The three stared at Demyx as he sat down in a chair and within moments someone came over and asked for his ID. Demyx looked up at the man and some words were exchanged, before he was literally thrown out of the casino. Two Uniformed men were waiting for him. There Demyx was handcuffed and led toward a police car. "Help! Help!" he cried out.

Axel ran over to do negotiations. The organization watched for a second, then shrugged and got their room keys.

"That is why you are not allowed in the casino," Zexion told them, pointing at Demyx who was wailing from inside the back of the police car while Axel tried to get him out of the situation.

"I'm totally getting a fake ID here!" Xero said, smirking at the casino.

Bàli rolled her eyes, and headed toward there hotel rooms. She, Larxene, Calixa, and Xion were all sharing a room. "This. Sucks," Larxene growled. "Why couldn't I have gotten my own room?"

"Because there's not enough munny in the budget just for each girl to have their own room." Cali sighed, laying on one of the two beds in the room.

"I get my own bed them," Larxene said. "Someone will have to sleep on the floor."

Bàli didn't even bother to look up. She just pretended to be asleep on one bed, hoping to be left alone. Fortunately she got her wish, for everyone left the room to do there own thing. Calixa and Xion went down the hall to Neox and Roxas's shared room, and Larxene went to the mall. Xero went to the bar to try and get a hold of some alcohol, so to sooth his hangover. Once Bali was finished resting, she went to go find out where Xero went.


Xero smirked at the bartender, "One more!"

"Dude your past our limit," the bartender said.

"Man, I'm a payin' customer!" Xero scoffed drunkenly. "My money ain't no good here?"

The bartender shook his head and gave Xero another scotch. He smirked and brought the glass to his lips. "Xero wat are ye doin?" a familiar Scottish voice asked from behind.

The orange haired teen paused, nearly dropping the glass. Behind him Bali was staring at him, arms crossed. "U-um... heya hunny," he greeted nervously.

"Don ye heya me!"

"N-now wait a sec. let me explain!" Xero begged.

Bàli just started to lecture him in her first language. "H-hun! I don't understand what you're sayin!" Xero tried to reason with her. This didn't help, the blonde continued to gabber on in Gaelic. "C-c'mon! Just..." Xero suddenly got an idea. He grabbed a full bottle of liquor and pushed it into her mouth, letting it pour down her throat. "Just have a drink and relax, babe!" he said happily.

Bàli spit out the what she could, and swore loudly at him. He watched her with a smile. "C'mon! It's just a little bit!"

"Nae!" she yelled. Someone who was watching the scene ordered a non alcoholic smoothie and mixed something into it.

"Why not?"

"Ye shoods know why!" Bàli shrieked.

A man suddenly approached her with a smoothie in hand. "Relax young lady. Here drink this. There's no alcohol in it."

The Scottish girl took it gratefully. Xero however, gave the guy a cold look before walking over to him. The two began exchanging insults, which started when Xero told the man to back off his girlfriend. Their conversation was interrupted however by loud hoots and yells, Xero turned around and blinked at what he saw. Bàli was dancing on the table, doing a very uncharacteristic sensual dance.

Xero blushed, and then glared at the guy behind him. "WHAT WAS IN THAT DRINK!

"Something to loosen her up, just like you wanted."

"Why you..." Xero growled, and then socked the guy so hard he got knocked out, though he was drunk too, so that probably helped. He felt better about it all when Bàli jumped off the table and kissed him.

The two went into a corner, not even breaking their kiss as they did so. They continued there lip wrestling session for another twenty minutes. "I love you so much Bàli," Xero breathed in her ear.

"I love you too, Xero," she giggled.

The Aussie then had a light bulb moment, "I have an idea, lets get married!"

"Marriiiiied?" Bàli slurred, seeing to think. She shrugged. "Okie den."

Xero beamed, "Lets do it now!"


Bàli groaned, sitting up. She was lying on a large queen size bed, and had the biggest headache of her life, and the last memories she had was yelling at Xero for drinking. Xero beside her, rolled to his side. The blonde teen suddenly realized that Xero was in the same bed next to her, and she was wearing no clothes. She did the first thing that came to mind, she screamed.

Xero jumped up, summoning his boomerang as he did so, in the same pants her wore yesterday. Bàli quickly covered herself with the blankets, looking alarmed at Xero. "Who! What? When! Where... where's my shirt?" he asked, looking at his chest.

"Where are my clothes?" Bàli shouted.

"Wha?" Xero turned and saw her, then jumped back to the wall blushing. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN MY ROOM!"

"What are you talking about this isn't your roo-" Bàli suddenly broke off as she looked around the room. There were many heart shaped pillows everywhere. In fact everything in the room was heart shaped. At the front of the room there was a sign that said, 'Congratulations Newly Weds' with horror she realized that they were in the honeymoon suite.

"Newlyweds... newlyweds..." Xero repeated over and over to himself until it dawned on him. "WHAT THE HELL DID WE DO!"

Bali didn't answer, she was starring in horror at a piece of paper she found on the bedside table. "What... is that...?" he asked nervously.

"Tis... tis a marriage license..." Bàli replied looking ready to pass out.

Xero beat her to it. A loud thud was heard as the orange haired boy was now on his back, unconscious. Bàli just gulped, they were going to be in sooooo much trouble. Xero was out cold, and she was naked, and there was a marriage license in the room with them. They all added up to one thing; they must have gotten married.

After a few minutes, Xero woke up. But he looked extremely disappointed in himself. "Xero..." Bàli said, looking terrified. "Wat are we gonna do?" she asked.

"I don't know... no wait I got it! We can get a divorce and not even tell anybody. That saves us both."

Bàli looked shocked, "I canna do 'at! I woods be a discrace to all woman."

Xero looked at her, "What?" he asked.

"Tis agianst mi religion to get divoces. When ye get marred, yer bound foreva."

"Oh... well… why don't we just not tell anybody then?" Xero suggested.

"Ye mean don tell everyone w'er married?"

"Exactly. I mean, they won't know about this if we don't tell them."

"I guess... we'll have to go agaist mi family tradition of moving in with ye. Dat would give us away."

"Well, we sorta live together in a way."

"Aye dats ture."

"So, shall we go back to the hotel?"

"Well, I'll needa get dressed," Bàli said blushing.

"... Well we are married so..."

"I guess it would be ok fer me to change in fron of ye..." the blonde reasoned and slowly got out of bed.


Meanwhile back at the hotel, Neox was trying to sleep, but couldn't. He groaned and sat up, looking at Roxas. "What is it NOW?"

"Its time to get up, Superior says we're leaving."

"No. I'm sleepy. Go away."

Roxas pulled the covers off the boy. Neox crawled underneath the two pillows and surprisingly, was able to fit under them, well enough for it to be a blanket. Roxas then took the pillows at well, "Come on lets go," he urged.

Neox glared at him then stood up and went to get dressed. Once everyone was ready, they all met in the lobby. Everyone was there except Xero and Bàli who had been missing since last night. "Where are numbers 17 and 18?" Xemnas asked, seeming to sway from side to side.

Everyone shrugged, but they didn't have to wait long for an answer. The two missing members suddenly came out of the elevator, "Whets going all mates?" Xero asked.

"You are late. We are going back to the castle now," Xemnas told them coldly.

"Why?" Xero asked, "We only just got here."

"Because the superior has a hangover and needs his own bed," Saïx answered.

"Where have you two been all night?" Xion asked.

"... Does it matter?" Xero asked, pretending to be tiered still.

Xion shrugged, "I was just curious."

"Guys getting your groove on all night?" Roxas teased.

"Like you and Xion weren't ramming the bed against the- OOF!" he was interrupted when Bàli elbowed him in the stomach and pointed to Neox.

Roxas glared at him, "We were doing nothing of the sort!"

"Could of fooled me from how ya blush when ya look at her mate," Xero snickered.

"CAN WE LEAVE NOW!" Larxene yelled, rubbing her head. "My head is killing me!"

Saïx opened a portal and they all went though back to the castle. Xemnas opened another portal afterward he walked out of the portal. "Day off from missions today, but nobody pester me for any reason whatsoever."

Everyone cheered, "NO LOUD NOISES!" Xemnas thundered.
