Xemnas Who?

"Because everyone in the organization seems to be trying to get me to do something for them or hurt me in some way," he mentioned softly and truthfully looking down at the ground while he spoke. Sighing he looked back at the boss. "It doesn't matter. Forget I'm even here," he didn't want to embarass himself more in front of the stranger than he already had. Giving his explaination wasn't even worth it and he didn't want to waste the boss's time.

 

Xemnas nodded. "Indeed. For instance, my name was-" He stopped in the middle of the sentence. What WAS his name? He could remember it a second ago... "It was... Xea... Xeah... Xeahnort. It was Xeahnort. My name, Xemnas, is an anogram of my alias, Ansem."

 

"i suppose you used the name from that odd man who calls himself ansem the wise?" he then looked around looking at every other nobody then at roxas "you are that Sora's nobody are you not?"

 

Demyx remained quiet and didn't say a word especially in front of the stranger. He didn't know if he was an allie or foe and it would be for the boss to make that decision. Instead the melodious nocturne starred up at the white ceiling bored to death and wondering if the boss was still cross with him or not. Most likely he was which was why he didn't want to push his luck.

 

Xemnas kept his eyes on Sephiroth. Could this man be trusted? Xemnas had to at least give him a chance... but he would keep his on him. Xemnas cleared his throat and looked at Demyx. "Number IX," Xemnas used his number to show he was still pissed. "Show this man to the extra bedroom."

 

Saix watched the scene unfold, as the man in thier midst, Sephiroth, had appeared to gain Xemnas' trust. As Demyx lead Sephiroth away Saix turned to Xemnas.

"What could he want with us?" he asked him.

Xigbar meanwhile was still smirking after watching Demyx get humiliated by Xemnas.

"who cares what that silver haired punk wants, if we're smart about this, we can use a powerful warrior like that to our advantage, he seems to have the same enemies as us, so that's a start..." he said.

 

Demyx cringed when he heard his number being called. It was such a huge insult to be called by the rank of order one joined in the organization. He pretended that he felt like some sort of animal being summoned rather than an individual who kept thinking he had a heart even though he was decieving himself all the time he thought that. Sighing, he starred straight at Xemnas, then Saix, Xigbar and any other member that was present. Lastly his azure orbs wandered over to Sephiroth whose expression was blank. He was curious about this warrior and wanted to know more about him. All in due time, for the boss was waiting for a response. "Fine," he simply uttered like that of a teenager not wanting to be bothered. "Come on," he signaled with his right hand for the stranger to follow him through the Corridors of Darkness that he summoned with his right hand. "Why do I always get stuck with all of these pointless jobs?" He complained softly to himself as he stepped through the portal and waited for Sephiroth to do the same.

 

"Xemnas you have my thanks." he turned to Demyx" Ok...." he went through the portal.

 

Once he was through, the ninth member of the organization led the taller man through another area of the castle through the east wing of the floating castle. Finding a room that was away from the bedrooms, he stopped at a door and turned the handle to it revealing a white and greyish bedroom with a closet and a bathroom around the corner in the room. "I don't know how long you are staying here, but this is where you will sleep. You're on the 5th story of the castle in the east wing so don't forget. The kitchen is down all the stairs on the mainlevel and to the south of the castle." Preparing to leave, he summoned another portal for him to leave. "Now do you need anything else before I leave you be?"

 

"no i do not really need anything" he summoned a neo shadow that was carrying a dumbapple." he tossed the apple to Demyx "here..... for your assistance." he then took an apple for himself and sat down on his bed.

 

(OOC: Seeing as we have Sephiroth in the story may I have another character such as Cloud please?)

Demyx caught the apple, looked at it and just took it with him after he summoned yet another portal to go through to leave the silver haired stranger be. Appearing out into the hallway, he wandered down the halls with the fruit gripped in his left hand. Venturing back forth towards where the other members were, he appeared once more where he had been sitting. "So I took care of what you wanted me to do and he gave me this?" Demyx held out the apple to Xemnas. "I don't know if I should eat it or let you have it?"

 

OOC: You may. ^^

BIC: Xemnas looked at the apple for a moment before shrugging. "Keep it. I am not hungry." Xemnas closed his eyes and leaned back in his throne. His memory may have returned... but he felt so empty, and he had no idea why.

 

(OOC: Thanks)

In another world the one known as Radiant Garden, a warrior with blonde spikey hair came upon the entrance to Cid's location and where Leon resided. He had been venturing through the town, keeping his own thoughts to himself and was relieved that he had not seen Sephiorth for a day or so.

Something was defintely wrong and Demyx could tell the boss was under some kind of pressure. Should he say anything or just sit there in silence? Tapping his fingers on his armrests, Demyx gazed at the apple again and thought if he should bite into it or not? Bringing it close to his mouth, his tongue reached out to taste the skin of it and he slowly bought into it to his teeth to take a bite. "What if it's poison?" He pulled it away from his mouth afraid of getting sick. "I don't think I should eat this." With hestinance he accidently let it fall from his grip as it landed down on the white ground with a small splat. "Whoops," he covered his mouth and hit his forehead lightly of what he had done.

 

Xemnas was so deep in thought, he didn't even care when Demyx dropped the apple. His fingers tapped the armrests of his throne nervously. What was this empty feeling... was it guilt? Guilt that he betrayed the people that helped him? He sighed.

Cid looked to the side and saw Cloud. "Cloud! We have a huge problem!"

 

Leon sighed"Yeah a big proplem huge I find it starnge all the things that have happened but we could not stop them"Leon clenched his fist and looked at up above and sighed again looking down at the ground with his fist clentched in his hand.

 

Cloud listened intently to Cid and Leon speak only gathering bits and pieces of the information as he made his way towards the interior of the residence. Setting his sword against the wall, he sat down on the couch and propped his feet up on the coffee table. "Now start over. What kind of trouble are you guys talking about?"

Starring down at the apple that was on the ground and how smushed the remains were all over the white surface of the emblem of Organization XIII, Demyx rose his eyebrow at the particular notion the Superior was giving him and anyone else in the room. "Boss? Hello boss? Are you all right?" He attempted to raise his voice that came out accidently as a yell. "Oh come on tell me what's with you lately. You're normally not like this at all," he scooted in his seat to get more comfortable and to raise his left arm that had previously been resting on the armrest. "I need to know what's going on."

 

Cid took a deep breath. "Okay, those loony Organization XIII psychos just came here, looking for their leader. Who, apparently, was that person Leon rescued. Anyway, they came, nearly killed me, and took their leader back."

Xemnas looked at the nocturn. One could detect a bit of sadness and guilt in his eyes. "I'm fine... i'll have someone clean the apple up later..." He sighed.

 

Leon nodded"So thats who he was Cid can we call anyone for help that could assist use in this matter"Leon sighed he was bored and looked at the inside roof of merlins house while he was sharpening his gunblade and looking at a wall.

 

"They can't be as bad as Sephiroth, no one can be," he held bitterness towards the one winged angel, the one who made his life a living hell. It was like a miracle not to even know where he was at. "So Leon, you and Cid do what you have to do and let me know if you need anything. I need to rest up before though."

How strange. Xemnas didn't react to violence or even a single glare or threat. Something obviously was wrong with the leader of the organization. He just was not himself. Almost like a complete stranger had replaced the boss he had come to fear. "Yeah you can't fool me like the others seem to think they can."

 

Leon sighed"Well you will not be happy with this but....Sephiroth is helping the organzation"Leon waited for clouds reaction to what he had told cloud about Sephiroth and the organzation but he was still boared about being kept in this house.
