Organization XIII's Rivals

A few minutes had scarcely passed before Xemnas transported back to the Altar of Naught.
"Saix," he ordered. "The real meeting will now commence. Get Zexion to make sure that he uses an illusion to cover us again, and to make sure no unwanted 'scents' are here. Now let's go."

Larxene had transported to her room, feeling somewhat jaded from the that day's events. It was a lot to think about, but she couldn't sleep on it yet, as she was sure the Superior would be barking out an order for their meeting to begin again.

 

OOC: Either of you can RP Zexion while the person that does role play him isn't here.
IC: As she re-entered the corridor of Darkness, she thought about something. She had spent so much time lurking in the shadows, that if she had a heart, it would have been devoured already. it was almost scary to her, not that she could feel scared...

She listened once more as everyone got into their seats, and waited patiently for their meeting to begin.

OOC: I'm going to bed. See you tomorrow.

 

Saïx nodded briskly, a bit surprised that it was going to be this quick. He thought he was at least getting a half-hour of thought to himself, but as he and the Superior disappeared, both heading to different places, he concluded it was better that way.

As he made his way to Zexion to tell him, he called one of the lower Nobodies, a Dusk, and ordered it to alert the others immediately. The mindless creature without no sense of self, went to do the job that was placed on him...or it. Nobody could really tell.

Even if he didn't have a heart, Saïx was thankful he wasn't one of their types.

Axel paced the floor of his room, back and forth. He had an inkling gut "feeling" again, the one that was always right. He had been bothered so much by this, that he had forgotten about his attempt to visit Larxene for the first time. There was something wrong, despite the perfect act, he couldn't help but think that Xemnas had been a little too...forward. Axel wanted his suspicions known, he had sensed Xinaram spying, and she wasn't dense to not pick up on Xemnas' notations a little bit. Axel wanted to let the rest know that this girl, that was giving much more trouble than she was worth in his opinion, could in fact, spy again in this real meeting. He should've broken her apart when he had the chance! Damn Saïx.

He was going for another round, when someone grabbed hold of his black sleeve. He froze in awareness, only to relax once he saw it was a Dusk, looking at him. It gave a nod, before portalling out. It was to start already? Axel rubbed his eyes, and when he opened them freely, he had come to a decision.

No matter what, Xinaram would not hear this. Once more, he had to miss out on a conference. But for a different reason. This wasn't for his enjoyment, but for his team. Maybe Zexion might pick up his scent, cause he was definitely going to smell fire.

I'm going to make certain that you won't be around to listen in, rat. Zexion illusion or not. Enough games. And with that thought, he portalled out into his own personal mission.

 

OOC: I'm going to school, and I won't be home until around 2:45 PDT. After which II'll have to do my homework, but I'll try to get on as much as I can.

 

In the Throne Room, Xemnas watched as all the members assembled in, but again, the only member he did not see there was Axel...again. Where could he have gone to now? Was there another enemy running around? As the Superior could truly see no reason to where the Flurry of Dancing Flames could've gone...but he needed him here immediately.
"Number XII," he ordered, "find number VIII and bring him here now."
He normally would've told Saix to do so, but after his and Axel's charade, he wasn't sure if it was wise...in case there was en enemy in their prescence that he might be trying to warn them of.

Larxene was a bit startled to hear her number called, as she was used to Saix being commanded to do so. Turning to look at the Superior, she nodded and portaled to Axel's room.
"Axel?" she called out. "Where are you?"

 

Saïx, for the first time in his nonexistant, felt like banging his head hard on something solid. Thoroughly. He was seriously getting tired of Axel's disappearing acts, and didn't know what could be the problem now. Was it another enemy? Was he playing one of his usual games? What is it?!

He gave Xemnas a look of exhaustion, and he's glad he wasn't sent to look for him. Larxene and Axel were quite close, maybe she'll have better luck. Plus, he didn't think he was to be lenient if he found the pyromaniac without wrapping his hands tightly around his neck.

While everyone was in disarray in wondering where he was...again, Axel calmly walked himself through the Corridors Of Darkness, transporting close to the meeting room, where he might find that rodent snooping around somewhere, his weapons at hand. He wasn't going to take time for granted. Not once more.

Thinking that the meeting has to go on without his attendance while he fights Xinaram, he called out a Dusk to his aid, giving it the intructions to tell the Superior to go on and not halt anything, and to trust what he's doing. With a nod, it went to do what it was sent out obediently. Even though they didn't talk, Xemnas had the power to infiltrate their mind. He'll know.

He could already sense her by now, and the excitement he had been breathing before began to work its way through his body. Axel didn't know whether he was going to kill her or not, the point was to distract. If it comes that far...he won't be the one dying.

He'll make sure of that.

 

Xemnas saw the dusk appear and understood Axel's message. What is he planning now? he wondered. But...I suppose I must trust him...
"The meeting shall commence," he ordered.

Larxene was still transporting around the entire place, searching every room for Axel...but to no avail.
Where is he? she thought, frustrated. It's like he's hiding somewhere...

 

.......dude....this can't f-ing go on like this.....I never know what the heck is happening....adn seriously...what's with the giant posts?

 

Saïx looked at the Superior in what would have been shock. He was going to start without Number VIII? And what about Larxene? She still hasn't come or reported yet.

He eyed Xemnas, questionably and confused.

Axel smirked to himself, as he spotted the ever annoying Xinaram listening intently to what his Org. was saying, a pencil and a notebook attached to her hand. So that's how she does it. Doesn't go completely in, but just enough to hear them. Not bad.

He wondered if she was aware of his presence, as he halted behind her, weapons at ready. He didn't care either way, he was going to make her see her unwanted company. Axel set fire to her notepad instantly, making the flames harsher than it should be as they reached high above, and watched, grinning, as the papers converted into simple ashes. Whatever she was writing down couldn't be that important.

He goes for flashy entrances. But he guessed this was good enough.

 

*sigh*.......all right...after we all head back unhappily.......because Xin took away all the fun....what happened?

 

Xinaram gasped as her notebook engulfed into flames, she wasn't writing anything, but it had startled her. She sensed Axel behind her, and turned. Noticing his chakrams, she took out her own weapons.
"Heh, it's you. Mister false Second-in-Command. So, are we going to finish this fight? Or, did you just come to drag more info from me?"

OOC: FireKeyblade, why don't you do the reading? the posts aren't really "Giant"...

 

Ah, Axel thought to himself, smiling as she proved his thoughts. I knew she didn't fall for some of that bull.

And now, he just hoped that Xemnas finished his eternal speeches faster this time around.

"Oh no, I'm done with taking info from you," he growled, and ignited his fire immediately around him, though didn't make his way to charge at her yet. He chuckled sardonically, his green eyes giving her a offended stare. "I'm insulted, Xin-Xin. Of course, I'm second-in-command. Why would you think otherwise? Am I not good enough?"

 

Blargh......I'll read the posts now.....(not any previous ones of course......)

Fire.....man...Xin's in another game with Axel.......come on.....I want some fun too.......

She sent a message to Xin in a fireball with pictures in it that she teleported to Xin. (message lasts 1 second and is easy to understand....if you can't...it's a mental message)

 

"Everyone, we will go according to the plan I mentioned," Xemnas announced. "But the members I send must not show their full potential. Appear weak and unable to make the right choices. I am only doing this to test their powers...to find out what their strength is...all of their elements and powers...that is all. Does everyone understand?"
He did not wish to start so fast, especially with two members missing, but he knew that whatever Axel had planned, he needed to hurry. He could always fill in the two later about this privately.

Larxene transported close to their meeting room, deciding that if Axel wasn't in any of the other rooms, or the Throne Room like he should've been...he must be somewhere around it. Why he was sneaking around like this, she wasn't sure...but she had a feeling that he was trying to discover something, or stop someone...

 

Hope she got the message......I'll even go easy on them......just to see what they can do.....if they can.....heh....

 

Gwyxn bounded downstairs, surprisingly full of energy for so late at night. "Wonder if Xin's back yet..." The set of notes caught her eye, and curious, she picked them up, took a seat on the couch, and began reading.

 

Gwyxn, what're you doing?

 

"Reading some stuff Xin left behind. Where is she, anyway? I thought she'd be back by now..."

 

She chuckled. "Oh, really? Hah. You know, your leader is a terrible actor. but enough with the bulls***." Her expression changed to a serious one. "Let's just get this over with!" She threw one of her weapons as hard as she could, but just as it got about four inces from him, it swerved to the side. Xinaram caught it, but from about seven feet behind Axel! She threw it again, this time it twisted through the air towards his back.

 

Grr....she's hogging all the fun......I sent her a message asking if I could paly too.......guess she ignored it....so typical of her......
