Zee caught his breath and pulled her hands away from her face, "Hey now, you don't have to be sorry. I should be the one apologizing. I..." he let her go and rolled onto his back, looking at the ceiling, "I shouldn't have...Mya's gonna kill me." he sighed finally and accepted his defeat. Mya or Zane would kill him for this and he knew it. But for a few seconds of pure bliss with Sasha, he'd face Hell itself.
"Raoxthu, she's not here." Xemnas called after him. "Just thought I'd help out and let you know that." Xion groaned and passed out. Mickey walked with them down flight after flight of stairs... Demyx's water clones attacked and he strummed on his sitar, creating a wall of water that came increasingly closer to Sora's group.
Zee felt every muscle in his body relax and kissed her back, harder.
Xemnas sighed and chuckled low in his throat, "I'm sorry you feel that way, Raoxthu. You're free to look for her, though a part of me doubts you'll find the same Renee you left with." he hinted criptically. Mickey lifted his keyblade to the air, "CURE!" A green light hovered on Xion's skin and her wounds started to close slowly. "She'll be alright in while. Someone should carry her for the time being, alright fellas? Let's keep looking." He headed toward the stairs heading down. Demyx stared at her, "Uh, huh, and I'm a monkey's uncle. Do I look that stupid? Renee never said anything about being friends with you guys. She didn't even know who you were, Sora. Man you guys sure do take me seriously when I talk don't you." He huffed and summoned his sitar and a few water clones, "You guys can't be here."
Zee opened his eyes and smiled, "You keep speaking nonsense and I'm kicking you out of my bed." He thought for a while and laughed, "There's a line I thought I'd never get to say." Almost in a daze of happiness he kissed Sasha's forehead.
*sigh* boys...I'll never understand you all. Well, I lost my voice sometime in the morning here and was b*tched at by my spanish teacher for...
Xemnas frowned, "You'd believe the word of a replica and a traitor? Raoxthu, I thought you understood my goal. The heart is a limitation, but if you truely wanted one, I'm sure Kingdom Hearts would grant you one. No one is normal, that's why we're higher than the Dusks." Demyx looked at them, "What are you guys, her family or somethin'? Ohhh, I told Marluxia it would be a terrible idea to take her from that virtual world! He's only caused us trouble with that girl and now he's dead which means we're all gonna die!" Xion stared at Larxene and she pulled her knives out of her. "I hate to stab and run, but I'm not gonna die here. I've already taken out your best hope of finding the little Princess." She disappeared in a dark corridor and Mickey ran to help Xion, hitting Dusks and Assassins out of the way.
Zee's heart beat frantically in his chest as he closed his eyes and tried to get some sleep. He realized he probably liked Sasha more than he liked Zane. She was nice to him, she....it hit him that he liked her in a completely different way than he liked Zane and he suddenly felt really warm.
Hmm, me neither...I'm kind of bored. Did you have school today?
Zee mumbled some things into his pillow and rolled onto his side. "Are you cold?" he pulled her into the circle of his arms and held her there, "I'll keep ya warm. It'll be my job."
Xemnas gave him a curious look, "All you wanted...was Renee, wasn't it? She's important to my goal. I can't have you telling her she won't live to see that goal nor can I afford you to pretend to feel things for her." Xion gave them a sideways glare, "Am...not!" she winced as electricity surged through her body. Larxene kicked her onto her back, "Oh yes you are!" She lifted her knives and slammed them into Xion's gut. Demyx blinked and let Sora go, "Wait, you're not here to eliminate me? Whew, that's a relief. Why are you here?" Axel led Mage to the Sandlot and found Xenree fighting a boy on the ground, "Oh brother. She's always fighting people." Xenree hit him hard in the jaw and Seifer fell off her, "Y-you hit me!" She stood and glared down at him, "Yeah, what of it!?"
Oh yeah? what are you guys up to?
Zee pulled off his shirt and buried himself on his side of the bed, "Sometimes being different could get you killed." he remembered Zane saying that once when they were children and Zee wanted to be different. "Ah, what's the point? Assassin's live to kill and they die killing. Being different is...probably the dumbest thing I could do right now. I'm on thin ice with Zane and Mya, though he says he forgives me, I can see he doesn't." He rested his head on his arms and buried his face in his pillow.
Demyx shook his head, "It's too bad you guys couldn't meet her. She was verrrry pretty. I wanted to keep her but everyone said I couldn't.... his mind slowly put pieces together, "Wait...why are you guys here in the first place? You're not here to...oh, please I don't want to go back to darkness! It's so dark there. So empty and devoid of music! I can't stand it there!" He wailed and gripped Sora's shirt front. Xion was getting tired and Larxene seemed to be brimming with energy. "VOLT STORM!" Lightning rained from the ceiling and several large bolts caught Xion. Fried, she dropped her Keyblade and fell to her knees. Saix knocked Roxas unconsious and sighed as he calmed down, "Sad to see you're still as weak as you were before." He opened a dark Corridor and walked directly to Castle Oblivion's basement level where Zexion and Renee were. He informed him of the intruders in the Castle that Never Was and figured it was Raoxthu trying to get Renee back. He covered Renee's ears as he said Raoxthu's name, wishing to not trigger any memories Xemnas had sealed with his name. Xemnas flicked the light switch on and off on Raoxthu and leaned in the doorway, "Going somewhere, traitor?"
Zee stiffened and turned slowly. He hugged her back and reveled in her warmth and softness. His heart beat wildly in his chest. "Live everyday to the fullest..." he repeated her and let her go. "That's a little hard for a guy like me when the fullest of my day is simply following Zane on missions."
Xion spoke through gritted teeth, seeing the King didn't hear their words, "Leave this witch to me! It's time I proved I'm worth more than a few cheap jokes!" Larxene thrust her back and shot bolts of lightning at her, "Oh, too bad. Does the toy want her bottle?! Hah! You're pathetic!" Xion sweeped her leg under Larxene and tripped her. Larxene caught herself on one hand and flipped back to her feet, a disippointed frown on her face, "Predictable response. People with no hearts are no fun at all." Roxas got a few lucky hits on Saix before he went on a rampage... Demyx caught up to them and grinned dumbly, "Renee? Hey I met her! Nice girl, very pretty, though Xemnas said we can't have her. Raoxthu got really protective, odd huh? Oh she's not here, Xemnas wisked her off to Castle Oblivion to, uh, do something to her. Hmph, he gets all the alone time with her. Demyx guestured wildly, "I don't know where she is, just that she's there. Why do you ask? Hey how's Roxas?" Demyx's mind moved so fast he couldn't wait for answers. Jumping from one foot to the next, he waited anxiously.
Zee's shoulders fell, "I'm sorry Sasha. I'm such a burden upon people that I'm not sure what to say anymore to compliments, if that's what it is."
Xion collided with Larxene and they both looked at the metalic Kazooie. Larxene grinned, "I get hit by that thing, so do you." Electricity sparked from her knives and into Xion. She gritted her teeth against the pain. Mickey threw a Dusk at the metalic Kazooie, Be careful you guys. We don't wanna hit Xion!" he yelled over the battle. Roxas summoned Oblivion and Oathkeeper and clashed with Saix. Saix's feral snarls took him back to when they first fought and Roxas had won, but barely. (ever played Days, think about their fight and that's what happens again) Roxas dodged Saix as he tried to hit him with that massive sword. Renee closed her eyes and Zexion nervously waited news. Demyx whistled as he walked down the halls of the Castle that Never Was and saw Sora, Riku, Kairi and a few others he didn't know. "Ah, time for some fun! SORA!" He waved his arms wildly and ran toward them.
Zee spun around and ran a hand down his face, "Sorry. Heh, you trust me? That's something I haven't heard in forever." his mind told him to shut up but his mouth kept going, "A nice guy, huh? Not a lot of people would agree with you. Just because I'm friends with Zane the Reaper, I'm suddenly a Rebel without a cause."
Larxene laughed horribly sadistically and snapped her fingers, "You're the dumb ones if you think I'm alone!" Several Dusks appeared around them and some Assassin Nobodies. They all jerked in the same pattern and lurched at them. Xion cut through a few of them, her eyes focused on Larxene, "You b*tch!" she snarled and launched herself at her. Mickey was jumping around like a mini Yoda, cutting through Dusks and Assassins faster than anyone could blink. But the kept coming... Roxas finally found the Gray Area and Saix, "You...Saix!" Saix looked up and smiled, "Roxas...come back to take your punishment for betraying the Organization? I'm surprised."
