Well, since everyone really wanted Zexion to be the main antagonist, the main baddy he will be! But that doesn't mean I won't introduce subordinates; I will. I so very will. Figments of Your Imagination ~~Chapter 2~~ ~~Lumiara~~ Zexion flipped a few pages through his book, and began to read, eyes intently scouring the text. After a minute, he began to laugh. Marluxia became quite scared. "Wh-wha-what are you gonna do to me?" Zexion looked up. A blank stare came over his face. "Oh. I completely forgot about you. I was busy reading my book. Don't you think Hemmingway comes up with the best novels when he's sober? "Well, now I remember. I am going to torture you." "Why the hell are you going to do that?!" "Remember about a month ago? After you slipped me a little booze? I sure do." Marluxia thought about it. ~~~One Month Ago~~~ "Mmfph!" Zexion cried as he was pushed down yet another flight of stairs. He struggled desperately to rip off the duct tape that bound his arms and legs together; there was another one on his mouth. He would've succeeded, too, but Marluxia had given him enough booze to persuade him to put on a cheerleader outfit; the pom-poms made it impossible. Marluxia nonchalantly strolled down the stairs with a psychotic grin on his face; Larxene, Axel, and Xigbar were bawling at the top of the staircase. Larxene had to try and stop herself by putting her hand over her mouth; it wasn't working. Axel was laughing so hard that tears were falling from his eyes; and Xigbar was the worst. He was pounding on the floor, while trying to grab onto his laser guns. It was...um...quite a sight to see. To make things worse, Marluxia had a camera. He snapped a few shots before throwing it to Axel, who just barely caught it in the midst of laughing. "Yo, Fireman, make sure you put that in MY room. I am so uploading that as the background for the main computer! "Oh, yes, there's one more thing: Demyx! Come here! There's something I want you to see!" Zexion's eyes grew small, and his face got extremely red. ~~~~~~ Marluxia burst out laughing at the memory. "Oh, geez!...I didn't know you still remembered that!" Zexion barked out, "Sh-shut up! Do you have no respect?!" He opened his book to about halfway, then muttered: "By the book I have, by my immense power; do me a favor, and shut the trap of that flower!" Marluxia's laughing subsided; he tried to yell at Zexion, but no words came out. "Much better. Now, before you ask, yes: I am doing this for revenge. No one does that to me and gets away unscathed. You're going to burn, Flower Power!!" He extended a finger in his adversary's direction, breathing heavily. Taking a deep breath, Zexion walked up to Marluxia. He punched right through him, and pulled out a black material. Zexion threw it to the floor. In seconds, it had transformed into a complete mirror image of Marluxia; the only difference was it had no color in it, only black darkness. It ran off. The ice shards then melted, and Marluxia dropped to the floor, panting. Zexion waved a hand. "Dispel." "What the hell was that?!" Mrluxia demanded. With a poker-face stare, Zexion answered his burning question. "That was your shadow. It is exactly like you. It knows your weaknesses and strengths. Your shadow's name is Lumiara; your name before you came here." At that instant, hundreds of memories flooded Marluxia's brain; he clutched his head, moaning. "What are you waiting for, Marly? If you let Lumiara ran wild, he's bound to destroy everything in existance. Such is the way of shadows." He disappeared. "Damn it," Marluxia uttered as he fled the room. ~~~~~~ Marluxia spotted Lumiara turn down a hall, and he went into hot pursuit; when he rounded the corner, Xigbar stood in the middle of the hall. "Xigbar! Did you see a shadow flee down this hallway?!" Xigbar just laughed his normal laugh, then summoned his two laser guns. Without hesitating, he shot Marluxia's knee; Flower Power crumbled to the floor, screaming in pain. He pounded the floor, and looked up; Lumiara was running down the hall. Xigbar was nowhere to be seen. In major pain, Marluxia managed to get up and run after his shadow; all the while, his eyes were large and all anime-style. His hands clutched his head, digging into the skin. "What the hell is happening to me?!" Lumiara quickly created a shadow warp, and went into it. Growling, Marluxia followed. He dove into the abyss of shadows. ~~End of Chapter 2~~ Two chapters done. Feedback would be greatly appreciated.
