Organization XIII's Rivals

OoC://Tula didn't reply yet? Damn.

 

I think he hardly cares for this RP anymore.....sometimes....well...actually...he made a few replies of having nothing to do......just post something.

 

Larpex completed the patchwork, looking back at Abexecca's face. "You may feel a small zap, alright?" Larpex took a deep breath, initializing the seal on the lung. She then sent a surge of energy through her palm and aimed it directly at the seam. Abexecca's upper torso flinched, and Larpex slowly removed her hand from inside her chest. The blue, transparent film disappeared and she glanced down at Xangel to observe her work. "Good job, Xangel!"

OOC: Sorry about the choppiness, I'm a bit blocked :sweatdrop: oh, and I've always been pronouncing "Captain Kuchiki" coo-chi-ki. But I just realizd that it's the same spelling as Kuchiki (cooch-ki) in Bleach... hehe.

Reixa watched Xandlei with a sense of pity, kneeling down to his eye level. She wrapped her arms around him sympathetically, holding him close to her. "It's... alright, Xandlei." She patted his back softly a few times, and then pulled back a bit, facing him. "Xandlei... you know it's okay to be angry, and to be sad, even though... we're not supposed to 'feel' anything?" Rei held his shoulders firmly. "It's not wrong. But... letting your emotions get out of hand... it takes a lot of concentration to control and use them to your advantage. I think... we should start our training as soon as possible."

 

"Agh!" Abexecca shouted, feeling the zap pulse through her. She closed her eyes tightly as she felt a sting, but that pain soon went away, along with every other pain, except a small, sharp pain in her chest. She opened her eyes and relaxed, not wanting to move in case something happened. She smiled gratefully up at Reixa and Xangel. "Thanks..." She said appreciatively.

Xandlei held on tightly to her, the tears still falling down his cheeks. Once she pulled back, Xandlei looked up at her. Listening, he nodded in response to her last statement. "O-Okay..." He said softly.

 

Xangel nodded. "Be more careful....and listen to your elders. It helps. Trust me." With that, she turned away and headed toward Reixa and Xandlei. "Is he all right? I saw that he was close to turning dark...that was a tricky situation. You handled it nicely, Reixa."

 

Larpex smiled at Abexecca, admiring her's and Xangel's job well done. "You'll be fine now, but you need a sufficient amount of rest before becoming too active, okay? You could damage some of the seals on your wounds before they can properly heal themselves." Taking her arms and positioning one behind Abexecca's neck and the other under the backs of her knees, she prepared to lift her. "Do you mind? I'll just take you over closer to the trees where you can relax."

Reixa smiled back at Xandlei, standing up and resting her hand on his shoulder. She heard Xangel's compliment and nodded towards her, and then proceeded to look back at Xandlei. "Do you think you're ready, Xandlei? We wont get into any special abilities yet, but I can show you a few things to start out with."

 

Abexecca exhaled. "No, I don't mind..." She said softly, allowing Larpex to pick her up. So she'd have to take it easy for a while? Heh, that sucks... Now I'm useless... She thought, frustrated. This is why she hated being injured. When she had to "take it easy", she couldn't fight or do anything, pratically. Looking over in Xandlei's direction, she was relieved to see that he was fine. She closed her eyes, her whole body feeling limp. She didn't like the frightened expression on Xandlei's face. It sent a shocking pain through her chest, but it didn't come from her lungs. She hated seeing him like that. "Larpex, do you know what happened to Xandlei...?" She asked softly, a tone of worry in her voice as she opened her eyes.

Xandlei nodded quickly and jumped up, wiping the tears away quickly. "I'mm ready...!" He said, wanting to learn quickly.

 

Larpex sensed a bit of uneasiness in Abexecca. But as she asked about Xandlei, she glanced over at him. "I was really focused on you... but I believe his aura was getting out of hand. I thought I saw some black smoke too... but Reixa stopped him quickly enough." Larpex smiled back at Abexecca. "But it looks like they're going to start training. He's in good hands." They arrived at a nearby tree in view of both Rei and Xandlei, and Larpex slowly lowered Abexecca. "Now, I think a day's rest will be all you'll need, but be careful not to move to much. You can move your arms, legs, and neck, but try to keep your torso and abdomen level. You had some damage to your lung, liver, and intestine, so if you feel any pain in those areas, the healing process is finishing up."

Reixa nodded, leading Xandlei over to the edge of the water. "Okay, we're not going to actually start out with using much aura. Try sitting here and watching the surface of the water. Find your reflection, and watch it earnestly and calmly. If you see any color other than the hue of the water, it's most likely your own aura. But if you can only see a white aura near our head, that's a start. It'll look kind of spiky and it will always be in motion. Oh, adn one more thing, try to make blinking a fast and spread out process, and don't move your eyes from one spot. It may be tough at first, but you'll get it." Rei sat next to Xandlei, practicing the same method herself.

 

Xangel nodded. "The sooner he can control himself, the better." She then walked to an isolated tree and sat back against watching everything in motion. She herself knew the full effects of losing control and going dark. Lives can be lost and you wouldn't even know it until you woke up completely exhausted but knowing full well of the sins you had just committed. He should never experience something like that...ever...

 

Xandlei looked at her and nodded before looking back at the water. He stared down into it at his reflection, but he didn't see anything at first. Then, he noticed the water was a bit different color... black. "Hey Reixa, do you see that?" He asked and pointed at the black surrounding his reflection. He frowned, trying to keep his blinking fast and spread out, but it was difficult. And the black in the water somewhat creeped him out.

OOC- There's more to this than you think... XP

Abexecca nodded in response to Larpex when they reached the tree. Seeing Xandlei and Reixa working together, she smiled, glad that there was someone who could help him. However, she still had an uneasy feeling about Reixa that just wouldn't go away.

 

Reixa took her concentration off her own relfection and looked straight at Xandlei. Taking a closer look, she noticed the gray, smoky concentration of his aura. In a motter of seconds, it became black and sinister looking. Her eyes widened, noticing that her previous attack wasn't good enough...

"Xandlei... do you feel okay? Your aura... is pitch black. That's a sign of... pure darkness..." Reixa formed another sphere of bright white aura in her palm. "I'm not going to attack you, but try focusing on this." Rei took her hand and placed it in front of her face, and then she blew on it. Small wisps saild through the air at Xandlei's eyes, and they penetrated the black aura swiftly. They curved and wound themselves around it, while continuing to cover the front of his face. "Try to relax... okay? Think of something happy."

Through all this, Reixa was thankful that Xandlei couldn't see the immense worry in her expression and the bead of sweat on her face.

 

Uh-oh....there he goes again.... Xangel quickly jumped up and made a firewall between Xandlei and the water.

 

Abexecca gasped and tried to jump up. "Xandlei!" She shouted and then winced, forcing herself to sit back down. Dang it!! What the heck is going on?! She thought, gritting her teeth.

But Xandlei couldn't relax. He found that as the white wisps of aura started covering his face, he began to hyperventilate. Closing his eyes tightly, he dug his nails into the ground and tried to think of something happy, but it wasn't working. He couldn't slow his breathing. Pure darkness...? What does that mean...? Xandlei wondered, frightened. SHE doesn't have black aura... I'm scared... What if I'm some sort of evil creature...? He wondered, feeling lightheaded.

 

Reixa quickly clenched both fists, pulling back the white aura as it trailed black aura with it, taking it from Xandlei's body. Patches formed in the smoke from where the white aura had been, and it started to slowly fade away. Rei put a hand aroudn the back of Xandlei's neck to prevent him from falling over, putting another hand on his forehead. It was very warm, similar to when she had gone unconscious so long ago. Reaching into the lake, she cupped her hand to gather some water. She brought it up to his face and let the liquid fall onto his head. It was rather cold, and would help bring the fever down.

Rei looked up and around for Larpex, spotting her near Abexecca. "Larpex!"

Larpex heard Rei callingg her, and she looked back at Abexecca. "I'll be right back, okay? Please try to stay put, no matter how hard it will be." Sending her a weak smile, she ran towards Rei and Xandlei to see what the trouble was. "What?" she replied, looking back at Xandlei in Rei's arms. He seemed overheated...

Try to cool him down, he has a fever."

 

"Agh!" Xandlei shouted when the water fell on his head. "That's cold!" He shook his head to get the water out of his hair, and almost fell over, if it were not for Reixa's hand preventing him from doing that. He didn't even have a chance to ask what was going on... He couldn't... When he tried to speak, he just couldn't seem to get his lips to move. Suddenly, just as quickly as it had formed, the black aura started building around him again. Xandlei was no longer hyperventilating, but he was breathing heavily. He felt like he was in a trance, like the whole world wasn't even there. He could hear Larpex and Reixa's voices faintly, but it was like his vision was clouded. He suddenly hugged Reixa tightly, scared, and was finally able to speak. "What's going on?!" He asked, frightened. However, he didn't notice black aura starting to build on his hands.

Abexecca nodded and closed her eyes, not wanting to watch. Whatever was happening, she couldn't do anything right now. She would have to leave it up to Reixa and Larpex.

 

Xangel readied a sword. If it came to the worse, the kid had to go. Going dark was a wild card and anything could happen but it would most likely end in destruction. She went over to Abexecca to keep her company.

 

Reixa could almost instantly feel the grip Xandlei held burning through her uniform. The thick darkness in his aura was even darker than a normal Nobody would be able to produce, and it quickly met her skin under the clothing. She took a hold of Xandlei's waist and picked him up, placing him in front of her before glancing at where his hands previously were. There was no blood, but a searing pain remained. Ignoring it for the time being, Reixa looked Xandlei straight in the eye. "Xandlei..." she said strongly through gritted teeth, the pain in her arms from the darkness increasing. "Look at me, and try to fight whatever is getting a hold of you... do you understand?" Rei winced once again, and it was difficult to keep her arms raised. "You... can beat it... Xandlei!"

Larpex moved forward from the edge of the lake, placing her hand on Xandlei's forhead as Rei talked. She had stored up a great amount of energy in her palm containing the cool water's properties, and it would help the fever immensely. Looking at Rei's arms, her eyes widened in mortification. "Rei... your arms... they're decaying..."

"Nevermind that, just keep lowering the fever. I'll-- deal with myself later."

 

Xandlei, seeing he was hurting Reixa, quickly pulled away from both of them, hurt in his eyes. He took a few steps back, just to be cautious. He didn't want to hurt either of them any more, and he could only feel this power getting stronger. Blackness started to cloud his vision and think, dark aura formed around his hands. Letting out a yell, he put his hands to his head, crying out in pain as the aura started gaining control. He tugged on his hair, shaking his head roughly to keep it from controlling him, yelling out again as he fought against it.

 

Reixa ignored the pain to her limits and rushed after Xandlei, embracing him regardless of the consequences. She spoke in a hushed tone, trying to calm him down as much as possible. "Xandlei... I know you can beat it. This darkness doesn't control you... and don't be afraid. All you have to do is believe that you can overcome this..." It was then that Reixa gritted her teeth once more, the entire front half of her body now being eaten by this darkness. But stopping this from hurting Xandlei... was far more important.

 

Uh-oh...not good....but...I can't really do anything.... Xangel tried to help Reixa by possibly healing her with her flames. She was hoping it might at elast repell the darkness.....somewhat.
