Pride of the Organization

"If it's the only way to keep you here," he sighed knowing what he was getting himself into. Gazing up at her dragon form once again, he stepped towards her, the dancers getting out of his way knowing their master meant business. "All right I guess I have no choice," he twirled his sitar in the air and caught it in his right hand pointing his left finger directly at her. "Dance water dance!" From his percussion of yells and the chords reaching different tempo from the movement of his fingers, watery forms of himself filled the area. This was one of his signature moves, a easy way to cause distraction. He had fought the keyblade wielder using this technique that led to some of his others; however, he was willing to push himself towards the limit since his opponent was indeed a dragon. Now all he had to do was wait for her response and with that, his azure eyes closed while his fingers danced rapidly across the strings, every sensation following another.

 

Sinder's mouth turned into a twisted and evil grin and she laughed. Her voice was ominous as it rang through the air. "So it shall be!" she yelled at him. She placed her feet on the ground firmly and raised her head to a screeching roar. It shook the watery forms and the ground like an earthquake.
The darkness flowing out of her was immense and made her look more terrifying than before. Her talons dug deep into the ground and poison dripped from her fangs. Sinder's eyes were a brilliantly glowing purple and could be clearly seen. She lowered her head and swayed back and forth waiting for Deymx to strike; waiting to attack with her own powers.

 

She had not attacked him, just shook the ground with the sound of her thunderous roar. Using his left hand, a portal opened up revealing what would lead to another world. The water clones surrounded Sinder preparing to do her harm depending on the order from the one behind the water. Now it was never, Demyx began dancing around her as to confuse her, his eyes still being closed as more clones appeared. He was not going to attack until she lunged. If he was going to time this attack right, he would have to be patient. Thankfully he was relieved he had closed his eyes for he wished not to witness her in such a way.

 

Xemnas stared at Sinder with his cold amber eyes. His lips parted and formed into a fake smile. "Demyx, our friend here wants to leave... you WON'T allow that, will you?" The Superior asked in a calm tone. Xemnas' smile slowly turned into a frown. "Sinder... listen to what I am saying... I will give you ONE chance to cease this foolishness... or we will take action... and you won't like that..." Xemnas growled, ready to fight if he had to.

 

Sinder's gaze moved toward Xemnas. "If you won't let me leave you won't like what I'll do." She answered in an ominous voice with an evil smile. Her head became lowered and a chilled fog came from her mouth. It froze all of the water within the area. Then she raised her head to a high-pitched roar once again; which shattered all of the ice, and it all disappeared. She could be clearly seen now. Darkness oozed out of her body at an alarming rate. "No matter what you do I WILL leave!" She screamed at the two Nobodies. Then four smaller dragon beings formed out of the darkness, piercing purple eyes were the only color against the black forms. "Come and fight me if you wish,"she laughed.

 

Click…click…click.
“Sinder?†She peered inside an empty room.
Not here. A piercing screech filled her ears.
She sighed and made her way outside the castle.
Here she found some fuss going on about the mouse.

She rolled her eyes, remembering Mickey well.
Hardly, she could care less about him.

Looking around, she saw Demyx aiming to take on her sister.
From what she remembered, number IX wasn’t an eager fighter,
But his endurance was admirable. Who knows what might have changed since then.

Approaching the fight, she asked of the dark figure “Sinder, don't do this.†The eyes stared through the darkness.

 

"Good, she can stop her," the melodious nocturne had his water ready, his fingers on his strings in case he needed to do something else drastic. He hated to fight, but what choice did he have? Sinder was going to hurt him if he didn't defend himself. Of all, the musician was not going to let this dragon tear him from limb to limb. "Sinder back down. This isn't like you," his eyes were peering through the darkness to see what other kind of tricks she had up her sleeve. At the boss's reaction, Demyx nearly bit his lip for he was worried of what Xemnas would do to the female nobody. He didn't want her to get hurt or killed, but she was acting like a traitor. With his mind wandering and not knowing the right thing to do, he struck her right in the eyes blinding her with his massive force from one of the geysers that shot up. Getting out of harm's way, he headed towards Xemnas hoping to seek protection from him.

 

As the water dissipated from her vision Sinder screamed in anger and dug her talons deep into the ground. The dark dragons that were created disappeared. She lost her concentration on what she was doing and went into a stage of uncontrolled frenzy. The darkness pulsed out of her in great beats as she seemed to move faster than the speed of light toward Deymx. She lashed out in rage toward the Melodious Nocturne with her claws and fang-like teeth. Deymx had made a wrong move because for the moment nothing could control the dragon.

 

With his eyes being wide now, he held up his sitar to protect himself quickly bringing forth a wave of water in the form of geysers to protect himself to act like a shield. "Okay but what did she expect I would do? I thought she would of at least calmed down instead act like such a deranged beast." He told his boss. "Oh man this whole thing just keeps getting worse and worse. I don't know what to do anymore."

 

Another geyser hit Sinder in the face and it knocked her into her senses again. She stumbled a few steps backward and regained concentration. Sinder shook her head as she gained control once again. "You better not do that," she said warning Deymx as she backed off a short distance. The dark smoke coming from the being lessened as the dragon turned her head to her sister. "Stay out of this. I'm not the insignificant little sister I once was. I am far more stronger than you remember."
Sinder straightened her posture and started walking backwards slowly. "If you are wise none of you will follow me," she telepathically told Deymx and her sibling with a smirk on her face. The dark dragon opened a portal behind herself and made her way into it. She just looked at the Nobodies in front of her with an evil smile as her being disappeared into the portal.

 

"Geez what's her problem?" Demyx rose both of his arms up in consfusion. Not having to fight anymore, he sighed with relief and made his sitar vanish into thin air, thus halting the water attacks. Starring at the portal Sinder had made, he walked towards it, placing his right hand through it. "I think she's gone now. Maybe we should just leave her alone and go on with the mission. Who would think I would ever say that?" He laughed lightly as he starred at the portal he made earlier that would take anyone to the Pridelands. "We're supposed to go to the Pridelands right?" He asked his boss.

 

The portal Sinder had made led to one of the highest flat-topped towers of Castle Oblivion. She stumbled out of it as her normal form slowly appeared, the darness breaking away in pieces and floating into the air as it disappeared. After a few short steps she collapsed onto her side then rolled onto her back staring at the sky as tears streamed down her face. "Why me?" she said softly to herself...

...Sinder laid there crying until she fell into a restless and agonizing asleep...

 

Demyx awaited Xemnas's answer and tried his best not to annoy him with the tapping of his foot. "Um boss did you hear what I said?" He thought of going on his own through the realm. The boss had wanted everyone to go through there, but because of the inncident with Sinder, the misson got put on the back burner. Hopefully everything was now resolved. Edging towards the realm, he took one step in only to feel the emptyness that awaited him.

 

Axel had watched from a distance one of their rebel against the organization. The nobody Sinder had attacked them in her dragon form and he wondered if she was a traitor? The fire wielder knew his task for dealing with traitors and he excelled at it for he savored seeing the look on the traitor's pitiful face before finishing the job. "So? Is she out of the organization or did she just have one of her thunderous fits?" He asked anyone out of the blue. "Demyx, being ignored is something you'll have to get used to so no need to get bent out of shape." Stepping towards the younger member, he placed his right hand on the water wielder's shoulder like he did for all of his friends.

 

Xemnas looked over at Demyx. "I heard you loud and clear. We will leave now. As for the traitor, we do what we must. She will be executed when we get back." Xemnas walked past everyone else and into the cold, dark corridor.

Phenox stood still for a moment, staring down at Sinder. He would normally feel sad for her, but he just felt nothing. Maybe this was what it meant to be a Nobody? Losing contact with your emotions? Being unable to feel anything? Living a meaningless non-existance until someone comes along and wipes you out? No. He had a purpose now. One that made him feel almost human. He lived to serve his Superior. That was all that mattered. He would spend his Nobody life pleasing Xemnas. Was he damned to be a servant? Was that it? Phenox turned to Demyx. "Are we nothing but mere servants to The Superior?" Phenox asked him. Maybe Demyx, who has been in the Organization much longer than himself, would know the answer to the question that was burning deeply inside the young Nobody's mind for so many months since he became an Organization member.

Xemnas was in the transition between worlds. He looked down at the ground. I better find what i'm looking for here... Xemnas thought with a bit of anger. His Amber eyes seemed to burn into the ground. "I'm tired of everyone turning on me..." Xemnas said to himself as Sinder crossed his mind.

 

Sinder awoke as she heard her name in the thoughts of the other Nobodies. She got up and stood atop the tower and stared at the others below as they conversated.
"Executed..." The words hung in the air. It seemed better than living as a Nobody. She was never accepted as a friend to anyone and had nothing to live for. Sinder pondered at this thought very carefully...
The mission to the Pridelands crossed her mind and she figured she'd pry around and see what would happen to everyone, not caring if the Superior wanted to execute her, and made a portal to the Prielands.
"Whatever I am, I am not a traitor..."

 

Mickey saw them leave but did not stop them he was descending into madness he started talking to himself he had most likely gone mad. Mickey left on his gummi ship and muttered to himself and laughed to himself.

Saix pondered why they where going to the pridelands It was just a wasteland and there was nothing there but mindless animals they where no better than barbarians. Saix was suspicous but kept up his cold emotionless personality after all he was second in command and had to make sure there was no rivals to his position.

 

Giving the other nobody his attention, he smiled at Axel glad for the support "Of course we are." He took no time answering Phenox's question. "After all he is the one who gave us our names and we have no choice but to follow. Anyone who doesn't will be dealt with and I would never get on the boss's bad side. I don't want to get destroyed," his voice rang out with hestination and fear intertwined in one. "I mean come on listen to what you're asking?" A little bit of laughter erupted from his mouth. "Just be glad no one else heard you say something like that."

 

Phenox sighed. "Right... thanks for answering." He walked through the portal. He thought he could see Xemnas in the distance. He sped up ever so slightly to catch up with his Superior. He sighed to himself. Right... nothing but a servant... He thought. What seemed like an eternity ago, Phenox hungered for a purpose, but now that he had one, it wasn't as glorious as Phenox previously thought it would be. He lived only to serve Xemnas. Nothing else. Not much of a life, huh? But for Phenox, it was all he had. No friends, no family, no memories of his previous life, this was his only reason for living such a pathetic non-existance. Not to say he hated Xemnas. In truth, he looked up to the Superior.

Xemnas cleared his head of every negative thought. He stopped for a moment to collect himself. He had to keep it together, this is a very important mission. The Superior suddenly fell to his knees. The huge headache was back, and now it was stronger than ever. How come it gets stronger the closer he gets to the end of the corridor? Xemnas looked at the exit ahead of him. He would find out very soon.

 

Axel shrugged his shoulders and decided that Demyx and who ever wanted to join them on the other side would come shortly. Merging into the darkness, the fire wielder felt a weird sensation such as a change of body movement and it seemed to be getting shorter or lower to the ground. Axel emerged into the pridelands only to nearly fall into a lake. At the sight of his reflection, he backed away and bumped into a boulder. Instinct took over, as he began to bathe himself with his rough pink tongue. "How the hell? I've turned into a lion!" He recalled the drastic changes that had occured through passing through the corridor of darkness. "Now I get it." He flopped down on his side and bathed between his massive paws.
