“You have your own apprentice, although I would not suggest what you have done with mine. You are responsible for your own.” Xemnas lectured. Although Xigbar seemed highly unlikely to know what responsibility was. “I take responsibility for my own apprentice, although the incident was entirely yours and Axel's doing.”
Vexen watched as Xigbar was getting interrogated. Finally! Someone who deserved it was caught by Xemnas! It didn't work on Marluxia, yet. But Vexen would prove it in time!
“Hey! I wasn't involved that much! I was just in for the show!” Axel argued. He didn't have anything to do with it! Of course Xigbar would stab him in the back like that. And Xemnas would believe Xigbar over him....
“I wonder what they could be talking about.” Shaxirma mused. There must have been a lot to discuss about the apprentices. They had been here awhile.
That was strange advice. Nechax wondered if Allayx was possibly speaking from experience. He only nodded at the advice. Zexion might not have been good at hand-to-hand, but he was clever and had magic. He could do damage that Nechax couldn't do with his hands.
Xathere stood and hugged Hataxn, who did not appreciate it at all. He rolled his eyes and pretended it wasn't happening, frowning. She pulled away and looked at Lars. “I guess we have no choice.” Xathere opened a portal, glancing at her brother. “Are you sure you don't want to come too?” “I'll be fine.” Saying that he lost sight of both of them would not be good news...
((DX Poor old man!))

"As if! I was just saying, Superior, that we're worried you care too much about a simple apprentice!" Last time Xigbar checked, Xemnas was the emotionless one here. "You said it wouldn't even matter if they died in their training!" Survival of the fittest, the way the Freeshooter saw it.
"I agree to that!" Larxene stated loudly. Perhaps they could convince the others that Xemnas wasn't even fit to leave anymore if he didn't keep to his word!
"You'll probably never know." Jaxine knew this from experience, and didn't even ask about it anymore. Xemnas would tell her if it was important. If not, it wasn't her business.
Allayx walked through the hallways, being pushed to the ground. "What the---" Her Keyblade was already in her hand, but she then realized it was just another apprentice who was holding out her hand to help her up. A bit doubtful, Allayx took it. Myrthe grinned, "I'm sorry, didn't see you there!" "It's quite alright." Allayx simply stated, finding this person very cheerful to be a Nobody.
Lars awkwardly watched them hug, then saw the portal. They had to leave, but he felt bad for the man... Oh well, the life of a 'Nobody' didn't seem to be easy. The male nodded at Xathere's brother, "Thank you." Then walked through the portal.

It was true what was said. Xemnas knew that his actions were now being questioned. He, the leader. They did not need to be inquiring him at this point. It would give the traitors some grounds to begin to balance themselves against him. “Yes, but what you had done was not what I had in mind for training my apprentice.” Xemnas was in control of Jaxine's fate, when it came to training. Not Xigbar. He was sure that would stop them from believing anything about his “feelings”.
Xaldin had to scoff at Xigbar's claim. Xemnas would be the last one to show a care about anyone. Even a pathetic apprentice. Xemnas' reason was very possible. The man always had a plan for everything. It was why he was leader.
Saix shot Larxene another glare. She was barging into business that did not concern her, even if she was in the same room.
Axel smirked. Xemnas? Caring? Those two words did not go into a sentence together unless something like 'no' or 'does not' was involved. Even Axel cared more, and he was a Nobody too!
With a nod, Shaxirma agreed. “Something that doesn't concern us.” At least, directly. She was finished training in here, for now. Larxene might want to train more later. Shaxirma would need her energy then.
“Go.” Hataxn urged them on. Xathere took Lars' hand and stepped through the portal, taking one last look at her brother. She was going to miss him. The next world was the Enchanted Dominion. A world the Organization did not go into for the threat of Maleficent. It was best not to be bothered with the sorceress.

Xigbar shoke his head, knowing there was no winning this argument if Xemnas kept saying it was simply training. "I wouldn't call sleeping in the same bed training." Here, now everyone would know! "But if you say so!" With that, Xigbar was going to give up on it now. Perhaps they had to find some more evidence, somehow.
"Heh, how about after this meeting I'll go after that girl..." Larxene was sure the little one was helpless... Although her voice was still sarcastic. Marluxia would kill her before Xemnas did, if she blew their cover already. Luckily for her, she was a b***h by nature.
"We should respect the Superior's orders." Zexion then stated, knowing it wouldn't be good if the Organization once more split up. "Only then will we be able to succeed." They failed their goal last time thanks to traitors. Besides, he doubted Xemnas actually cared. Research had proven that impossible.
Marluxia sighed in himself, hoping this discussion would end soon. Although it was something to look into. Their Superior had never shown a weak spot before. This might be what they have been waiting for. With Xathere and Lars they had all seen that the apprentices were vulnerable and easy to manipulate. For now, he kept quiet. There was no reason for him to speak any more in this meeting. It would take time for the others to trust him again. But even then, not completely.
"Yes." Jaxine nodded at that statement. Glancing around, she realized they were still in the training rooms. Even if the others were done, they probably wouldn't come here. "We should go and see if they're done already." The Grey Area was a good place to look first. Almost always there was someone there.
"Hope you're alright?!" Myrthe asked happily, but a bit worried. "Yes, I am." Allayx simply stated, still confused by the other's behaviour. "Who are you, anyway? We never talked?" The blondine asked curiously. "Allayx." She introduced herself, then realized this was probably another apprentice Saïx wouldn't like. "However, I need to continue on my way now."
Lars glanced around the place, his eyes somewhat widdening. It was beautiful here! With a huge castle not too far away from them! So much better than the Organization XIII world. Everything there was dark, and grey... "Where shall we go?" He asked Xathere. It was obvious in his voice that he still wasn't fully healed, but he didn't want to worry her.
(( Yay, I was finally able to make a decent post with all my characters! biggrin ))

That was questionable. It caused a few heads to perk up in sudden attention. Xemnas gave the one-eyed man a glare, trying to think of what he would be playing at. What would Xigbar want now? There had to be something if the man was using this blackmail. Xemnas would not answer to that. They all very well knew the rules. To have their leader go back on his word was dangerous. He could lose order. Zexion, however, did not falter in his faith towards Xemnas. The Superior nodded towards him. “My orders are not changed.” Before anyone thought of making this into a lover's castle. That just might disgust him. Barely, but just might. “I think your apprentice has had enough time to complete his task, Xigbar.” To get the nuisance away. The meeting would be stalled with him around.
Xaldin frowned at this. Xemnas was no fool. He did not believe in love like some other fools here thought they could do. Yet if their Superior was falling for some simple girl, it would be even more trouble. Not to mention senseless.
Xemnas had to be experimenting on something. Vexen was sure that was all. Then again, Xigbar wasn't a valuable source. His information could sometimes be false and incomplete. Xemnas would be the least expected to think he had feelings.
When Xigbar's claim was not denied, Lexaeus looked up at Xemnas. Only to find the usual emotionless gaze. He frowned, knowing that Xemnas had broke his own rule. But no one else could.
Saix looked all around the room with a glare. Others were beginning to speak out of place. Especially Larxene and Xigbar. Again. Trouble would come out of this meeting.
Axel... couldn't care less. If only they knew about Luxord and Myrthe! Which the Gambler was not going to speak up. That wasn't a surprise.
Shaxirma nodded at that. Marluxia or Larxene would want to see her when they were done. Now that Xathere was gone, it would be interesting to see which of them trained her more. Leading the way out, Shaxirma reminded herself that she would have to ask Marluxia about the meeting. He was easier to talk to than Larxene...
Xathere didn't know of this place. She looked around the forest, and at the castle far away. This was pretty. The opposite of the World That Never Was. So the Organization couldn't come here often. “I don't know.” She shrugged. They could go just about anywhere.
((Xemnas: “Go away Xigbar. You're not cool enough for this group meeting.” Lexaeus' face: "What the heck Xemnas?! Not fair!" XD My commentary while writing this....))

Xigbar knew when he wasn't wanted, and this was one of those times that Xemnas tried to get rid of them. With a laugh, he teleported towards Twilight Town. No more boring meeting for him! And more time to pester his apprentice! Although he had to find him first. Hataxn was supposed to be in this world, and seeing it was so big, surely he could find him easily!
Larxene watched him leave, and saw this as enough permission to leave herself as well. The sooner she was gone from him, the better! Marluxia, however, waited to see if they really had permission to leave, and if Xemnas would still address the more loyal and serious ones with something else. Probably not, but it was worth waiting for.
Zexion also waited to see if the Superior was actually done or not, while still being deep in thought about the fact this Organization was more disfunctional than before. They had to do something about it. Else there was no hope for this group anymore.
(Stop having your characters lead my characters the way! xP) Jaxine went with Shaxirma, even though she wasn't sure Xemnas would come to the Grey Area when he was done. Her father didn't seem to like to have conversation with a lot of members. Really, she didn't even know if he ever taked to anyone besides business talk! Not like it mattered. He knew what he was doing. They quickly reached the Grey Area, and she noticed the female that had been training Shaxirma was already there. Although she tried to not show how uncomfortable she was about the smirk on the woman's face.
"Sure thing, Allayx!" Myrthe stated happily, continuing her way to the Grey Area with excited steps and jumps. Allayx shoke her head. That girl probably didn't realize the situation she was in at all. Well, not her problem! She continued to walk, decided to go to the training area to do some basic exercises. Strenght and endurance were things you shouldn't neglect.
"Perhaps..." Lars liked to go see the castle, but he wasn't sure who lived there. He wouldn't walk all that way to get the door slammed in his face. "We should find a village. If there's a castle, there must be more people." Would be odd to built a castle in the middle of nowhere!
(( For Saix, he can just walk in on Allayx training if you want. *Shrugs.* She's doing stuff like push-ups and sit-ups first... ))

Finally rid of Xigbar, Xemnas noticed that Larxene also left. She had also been a nuisance. He gazed at the rest of the group. There was nothing else to discuss. At least with them. The apprentices had also been left alone too long. Xemnas was not sure what to expect. “The rest of you should also return to your duties.”
Everyone began to leave at that point. Those with apprentices went to find them. Or in Luxord's case, his girlfriend. What better place than the Grey Area?
The meeting must have been over. Shaxirma was prepared for whatever Larxene wanted her to do. Because, no doubt from the look, Shaxirma was about to become very busy with her...
Saix began searching for Allayx. That meeting had wasted some time, but not all of it. They could fit in training. Whether or not the girl was ready for it.
Hataxn had left the old man's home and waited around the town to be retrieved. He knew what he had done would be answered harshly. He could handle that.
“Right.” It was logical to Xathere. She looked for some other sign of civilization, but only found the trail in the woods. It had to lead somewhere where there was people. She started following it.
((Short and unsatisfying. DX))

Xigbar quickly found the boy doing pretty much nothing. He frowned, and teleported right in front of him. "Whatcha doing, hangin' around? Don't ya have work to do?" It seemed like he had lost his target... That'd be bad. For both of them! Even though he couldn't have prevented it, the Freeshooter knew he was still responsible!
Myrthe happily ran into the Grey Area, immediately seeing Luxord there. With a huge grin on her face, she walked over to him. "Luxy!" Was she happy to see him! Myrthe had been very alone in the past hour. If it wasn't longer! "How was your meeting with the others?!" She was curious!
Marluxia entered the room as well, deciding to go with Larxene for once to observe the training. Besides, he still had to discuss some things with the Savage Nymph. "There you are, Shaxirma!" Larxene smirked as she walked over to the girl. "I hope that little witch hasn't wasted your time too much. In any case, we have some training to do." And get her away from the Superior's angel. Jaxine wasn't sure if she should be offended or not, but seeing the two elders, she decided it wasn't the best option to stay here. "I'm sure we will talk again soon." And with that, the girl turned to leave. Xemnas wasn't here, so he probably wasn't going to come either.
Zexion teleported into the Grey Area as well. He sensed his apprentice being there. But once there, he took notice of another scent. This one very odd. And light. Just like with Allayx, just the opposite of it. He frowned, and glanced around to see who of the apprentices it could be. (It is time for something else to happen, after all.)
Allayx was in one of the training rooms, using the floor to do push ups. She might not look very strong, but she could push herself to do a lot. And even though she heard footsteps (Saix'? :3), the girl chose to continue her exercise. If it happened to be her master, then this would probably make a good impression.
Lars quickly catched on to what she was doing, and followed after. A trail was a good place to start! It often lead to people. But not always. "I'm glad we're free now." Although he was still on his guard. What if they were still following! What if Hataxn had just tricked them?... He was unsure of everything, but would not show it.
(( I hope you can reply to this. :3 ))

“They escaped.” Hataxn wouldn't admit that he told them to. He didn’t know how to make a portal either, so no chase could be made.
“Afternoon, Ducky!” Luxord grinned at her. “Same old, same old. Boring as could be.” The meetings hardly ever ended in an interesting way. Although Xigbar being told to leave early was amusing. He was always the life of the party around here.
Nodding to Jaxine, Shaxirma turned her attention to Larxene. “What are we going to do?” There were many ways to train. Not to mention that she had already done some training on her own during the meeting. If she was sore later, she deserved it.
Xemnas went to his office, knowing he would get some peace from the others there. Xigbar had pestered him towards the end. Larxene seemed to find that information very useful. Which would cause another disaster.
Nechax looked up as Zexion entered. Yet just as soon as he did, he was distracted by something else. Nechax wasn't sure what it was. He waited for orders.
Saix indeed did find her in the training room. He stayed back and watched her, though. He counted how many reps of the exercise that she did before tiring. Without knowing that Saix was there, Allayx would have to motivate herself.
“Me too.” Xathere smiled. She wasn't too worried about being followed. And she trusted Hataxn too much. He couldn't have tricked them. They grew up together! “What do you think we should do?” Find a hiding place in this world? Or keep moving on?

Xigbar shoke his head, a little upset. "Ya know that doesn't go unpunished!" He opened a portal towards Xemnas' office. "But tha boss man can deal with you first!" After that, it'd be his own turn... Well, if the Superior punished him as well.
"Aw! You've got me now! I'm not boring!" At least, Mytrhe didn't consider herself to be! She quickly went forward to hug him, having no idea how odd that was to do around here. Seeing that, Zexion was sure the light scent was coming from hat girl. Hm, that was interesting. Although he doubted the Superior would tell them why they had a light and dark person around, there was a slim chance the leader didn't know about this one yet. The Cloaked Schemer was aware of the fact that Demyx had brought her in. That boy rarely does anything right. With a sigh, he turned to face Nechax. "May I inquire what you spend your time doing, Nechax?"
Jaxine wondered about where to go, then decided the Altar of Naught would do. If Xemnas was up there or not, she found the moon beautiful! Worthy enough to go to so now and then, and to think.
"Training." Larxene rolled her eyes, wasn't that obvious! "Although it'll be slightly different than normal. Hm, if we could only find another apprentice you could fight with..." She had hoped Shaxirma could have fought the Superior's apprentice, but the little girl had left before she had any chance to ask! How rude! Marluxia liked the idea of a duel. Although, yes... Shaxirma would need an opponent that was on the same level as she was. Simply an apprentice, with a lack of experience. Only Zexion's one was around. And Axel's, who had an odd liking for Luxord... He was slightly disturbed at the image of the girl hugging that man.
Allayx did as much of them as she could, seeing from the corner of her eyes that it indeed was Saix who the footsteps belonged to. She did make a wise choice then. Although her arms couldn't handle as much as someone like he could. After about twenty of them, the girl took a moment to rest before wanting to go to the sit ups. However... She had to acknowledge him first. And so, she visibly looked at him and got up once she did so. "Evening, master." The girl thought it'd be around that time by now. Not at all did she act surprised by his presence. Why would she?
"We should find a place to rest, then move on." Lars was sure it was best not to stay in one place too much, but his head still hurt! He needed his sleep, and rest. Else it would only get worse, and that was something they couldn't have right now.

Hataxn was aware of that, and knew there was no avoiding it. He felt his choice was justified. Though he would have preferred Xathere to go alone, instead of with a boy. Especially Lars, who just seemed to start off on the wrong foot automatically. Not hesitating, Hataxn walked through the portal and into Xemnas' office. He hadn't seen it before, but it didn't phase him. Hataxn prepared himself for whatever was coming. Xemnas had thought he would get a little more time away from Xigbar while he was in one of his moods to annoy. Unfortunately that didn't happen. To make it worse, Xathere and Lars did not follow. Xemnas frowned, waiting for a report.
Luxord hugged back, grinning. “True. So what do you want to do, Ducky?” That nickname was very cute, especially for Myrthe. He didn't care if others were around. They knew how he was. Nechax had not expected that question. He shrugged. He was a Nobody; what was there he could really care about doing? “Thinking.” He had to make it sound like he just didn't sit around.
That was unusual for Larxene to think of someone equal to Shaxirma. She expected the woman to choose someone like herself or Marluxia. And yes, sparring with Jaxine could have been interesting. Shaxirma looked around at who was left. Nechax, who she really did not want to get stuck with, was with his master. It was likely that the boy-master did not want anything to do with Larxene or Marluxia. Then there was Myrthe, who Shaxirma wasn't sure who was her master. Either Axel or Luxord.
“What did you do while I was away?” Saix asked. He didn't expect her of too much trouble, but he couldn't be sure. It was impressive to see she was warmed up for more training. Good.
“Okay.” Xathere nodded. This trail couldn't be too long. And they would probably find another nice person that could take them in for the night. Not that she had ever been in a town or village much in her childhood, but the world couldn't be cruel. Just the Organization.

Xigbar walked through as well, not at all feeling like facing the Superior right now. But he had to! Wasn't like they could actually care, anyway. "Seems like the boy has messed up on his assignment!" Xigbar turned to glare at his apprentice. "He lost sight of the other two. Either he's inexperienced or he let his sister escape." This was exactly why families were normally not allowed in this group. Their feeling would return to them.
"Hm, whatever you want to do!" Myrthe grinned, not noticing that Larxene was coming their way. Perhaps that little girl didn't look sane, but that was exactly why the Savage Nymph wanted to test the girl's strenght! "Luxord! Could we borrow that little girlfriend of yours for a bit?" Marluxia simply observed, wondering what the woman was planning exactly.
"About what exactly?" Zexion wondered out loud, trying to make it sound like a normal question. It'd be usefull to know what was on Nechax' mind. After all, he had to train the boy.
"I was wandering around the castle, thinking, when I decided I should put this time to good use." Allayx explained in her normal emotionless but respectfull voice. "I will need physical strenght as well." Obviously. She still had a lot to learn...
Lars found it a hard subject to talk about, but he tried so anyway. "Your brother... Can we trust him? I mean, he's with the Organization. Not like I don't trust you, but..." His cheeks got slightly red at asking that question. How dare he not trust her judgement!

Seeing Xigbar return so soon, Xemnas was annoyed. Had he not just sent that man away ten minutes ago? He was already back. Even worse: without the two fugitives. Another disobedient apprentice. Xemnas should have sent Allayx. She would have gotten the job done. “Either way, there is a punishment.” Like they didn't know what the real reason was. Hataxn still had loyalty to his family. That needed to be rid of. “Do as you'd like. I will attend to him later.” It was Xigbar. He would know what to do. Hataxn stood by silently, not at all arguing what was to come.
At Larxene's question, Luxord frowned. “Why? Don't you have your own girlfriend over there?” Shaxirma tried not to wince at that. She would never understand Larxene, even if she was into girls. Some of these Nobodies were clueless.
“Whatever comes to mind.” Nechax shrugged. Really, he didn't focus on one thing. Nor much of who else was in the room. This Nobody thing was still new.
That was good to hear. Saix nodded. “Good. Continue.” He would keep observing. Her self-motivation was a good sign. She would be an excellent future member.
Xathere didn’t even think about it. “Of course we can. My brother would never trick me. He and I have always taken care of each other.” Ever since they were little. She was sad now, thinking of what Hataxn was doing so she could be free. That wasn't fair. Xathere missed him.

Xigbar smirked as he go permission to punish the boy in whatever way he liked. He could actually have some fun out of this... First, the boy could get an unfair lesson in fighting! The Freeshooter opened a portal towards the lower levels of the castle. "Come and get him when you need him! Just can't promise he'll still be able to stand." Not like he had to tell Xemnas to punish the boy whenever he'd like. The Superior would do so wether they liked it or not. Xigbar glanced down at the boy, waiting for him to walk through the portal. Surely a son of Lexaeus wouldn't say no to punishment!
Larxene tried to laugh that one off. "You know I don't do girls, Luxord." Having slept with Luxord was prove of that. (( I can see her do that... )) "Really, I was thinking about a little competition! You like those, don't you?" Because putting it like that would make it hard to refuse for the man. He didn't want to be a loser, did he? Myrthe was a little confused at Luxord's statement. Girls could have other girls as girlfriend? That was new! She thought only boys and girls got together normally! Really, it made her think so much she forgot to reply to the conversation. Marluxia glanced down at Shaxirma, wondering what the female would be thinking right now. Newcomers were never used to this kind of behaviour, after all.
Nothing important then. Zexion gave a nod, not wanting to give the impression of disappointment. He couldn't be, so why act like it? "We should continue practicing spells." The Cloaked Schemer stated. Even if the boy was obviously bad at handling magic, they couldn't give up just because of that.
Even though she was a human. "Yes, sir." Allayx nodded in agreement before going back to her exercises. It was awkward to do them while someone else was watching. His gaze made her feel nervous. Yet she did her best at keeping that emotion inside as she did her push-ups. He would only be disappointed in her display of feelings, most likely.
"That's good to hear." Lars smiled at Xathere, when suddenly a picture of an unknown girl flashed through his mind. Who was she? The girl looked quite young... His face immediately turned to confusion as he thought about it. This made him realize... Ever since waking up, he never thought about his family. If he even had one... It felt like it. The girl in his mind also seemed very familair.
(( I think Lars is the type to have a little sister. You know, a very young one he has to take care of... :3 ))

Hataxn walked through. He had been told to just go along with everything, and they would soon be free. Going along with this let Xathere be free. He would take whatever pain he had to. He braced himself to expect anything.
“What sort of competition?” Luxord's interest was caught. He liked those. Especially when he won. He could guess what Larxene wanted. It was best to ignore this conversation. Shaxirma didn't think anything important would be said. Nothing had come up so far. Myrthe didn't seem to be much of a fighter.
Nechax did not see that ending well. He couldn't say no, though. Zexion was in charge. He wouldn't want to waste too much effort trying to teach Nechax, right? He nodded to the suggestion.
She kept good form while exercising. Saix continued to watch, waiting for a slip-up. Allayx was the best student in the Organization to him. If she messed up, the others were worse. Far worse.
Xathere didn't notice Lars as he had his moment. She distracted herself from her brother with determination to find someplace where there were other people. Because that would mean food and shelter. The only two things they needed right now.
((XD Aww....))
