A Crown to Adorn

*.*.*.*

“Wear a crown of flowers on your head, let its roots reach your heart.” – Kabir

*.*.*.*

The smell of the grass, the warmth of the sun on their faces, and the slight scent of honeysuckle wafting through the canopy above was the perfect complement to an otherwise ordinary day. Ordinary, that word seemed to slip into her mind with a lithe bump, nestling into her heart but leaving behind a tinge of anxiety. Was it good to cherish something even if you knew it wouldn’t last? Those words danced within her mind as warm rays of light kissed her cheeks.

Living in the moment. Cherishing those small moments of reprieve-sometimes Kairi had to keep reminding herself to do that. Whether it be taking in deep breaths of the salty air or cherishing the soft sensation of sand squished between her toes- those small insignificant moments she needed to hold close. The way the wind hit her face as Sora and Riku rushed past her in one of their many races or the sensation of cold droplets hitting her face during one of their many water fights. Those moments, they would rush back at her all at once during those times she was alone, listless, and longing for their company.

Somehow, Kairi knew that today would be one of those many moments she held close to her heart. She took in a deep breath, savoring the crisp air hitting her lungs.

The Kingdom of Corona was as beautiful as Sora had claimed it would be. Filled with flora and fauna, clean air, and warm bathes in sunshine. Even the few heartless around were, she had to admit, cute in their own way. Made her almost sad to pummel them, but once she found herself attacking in unison alongside Sora- every thought she had just melted away. He always seemed to do that, make her feel as if she could do anything, be anything. It sounded silly but- his light made hers stronger somehow. It radiated within her a warmth that felt so comforting she never wanted it to leave.  

After clearing the area, they had decided to take a quick swim in the spring nearby and were now sunning themselves like a couple of lizards on the forest floor. They had taken off their shoes and fully let themselves relax for what felt like an eternity. Peaceful, it was so peaceful that Kairi felt she could fall into a sleep here without a care in the world.  

“I’m glad you brought me here. It’s so pretty.” Kairi turned to Sora, her eyes welling with shimmering light. After hours of training, Sora had dropped by unannounced, unattended by the other two little half-pints, to whisk her away for a “well-deserved break” as he put it. At the time he had a shy grin on his face, letting her know that really, he had just wanted to see her. Not that she minded. She wanted to see him too.

“I had to! I mean you love flowers and well the beach back home isn’t as green as this. Heck, I hadn’t even seen some of the plants here before. It’s really something- all those worlds we wanted to see- just there’s always something new.” Sora blurted out, his excitement burgeoning behind an uncontrollable grin. He rubbed the back of his neck and leaned forward. “Sorry, I’m getting a bit too excited. I’ve been wanting to show you all these new things for so long. Every time I see something I think, “Kairi and Riku need to see this!”

Kairi giggled. Sora did seem to be holding in boundless energy every time she saw him. “I want to see it all with you. I mean, we always wanted to travel and learn everything we could. Even just seeing this world makes me want to go to all kinds of places with you- and Riku too…” Kairi tucked a stray piece of hair from her face. She felt almost embarrassed to say anything more- to tell him that really, she wanted to just run away with him right now. Leave it all behind. But that would be selfish, wouldn’t it? They had to face Xehanort. Even if that meant risking their lives. Still, that incredible wanderlust creaked within her bones. Even now her heart began to beat faster at the thought of Sora whisking her away to world after world. She could just picture it-brisk walks on stardust touched beaches, huddling close in frigid snow-kissed air, or dancing on the tips of their toes across warm cobblestones-

Everything. Just experience it all-together- hand in hand in a world all their own.

Kairi felt something lightly fall on her head. A light gasp escaped her lips at the sensation. It tickled her eyelashes as she looked up to greet Sora’s impish grin. Her hand reached up to touch the delicate petals of a ring of flowers he had placed on her head. Her eyes widened. “When did you…”

“Oh just while you were humming to yourself earlier. Did I do a good job? I mean I’m not as good at connecting them together as you…but I did have a good teacher.” Sora winked.

Tears pricked the edges of her eyes. When they were children, Kairi often spent her time near the shore picking small wildflowers and clover. One of the few things she remembered about her grandmother was her love of flowers and the way she used to weave together flower crowns. It used to make her feel like she was almost home again, weaving the flowers together, creating something from nothing. It was cathartic. For hours she would lose herself in the action- maybe that was why piecing shells together also soon became second nature. Once, Sora sat down next to her, and watched intently as she connected each stem of clover flower without asking any questions. When she was done, he told her how pretty it was and how “he wanted one too.”

For a few days after school, they would go down to the shore, make flower crowns, and pretend they were a King and Queen of the flower people. Well, the last part was entirely Sora’s idea. When she thought back on it- Kairi wondered if Sora did that to help her feel better about being homesick. She had missed her grandmother so badly back then. Every day she felt so alone. But then…Sora was there. And Riku…and the three of them found new things to do together.

Back then, Kairi hadn’t paid a second thought to the idea that most boys wouldn’t find what she was doing that interesting. Thinking about it now, Sora probably only said he wanted one too so she wouldn’t feel lonely- after all…she wasn’t the fastest runner or could hold her own at the time in a mock sword fight. What she was good at was making things, connecting flowers, shells, and bits of shattered sea glass into stars shapes or crowns. Her room back home was filled with makeshift stars, unfinished and marred imitations of the charm Sora now held close as an oath to her. Her childish fantasies of an unbreakable connection, made real and whole through a brush of their fingers as she passed the charm to him. Her fingertips warmed as she recalled his touch.

Now, with the newly coronated flower crown atop her reddened locks-Kairi felt that same bubbling joy well up inside her.

Kairi couldn’t believe Sora had still remembered that time or well had even retained his “flower-tying skills” as he used to call it. Sora had remembered a time that even she had pushed back deep into the depths of her heart. “I think that you retained some skill.” Kairi puffed out her chest. “But I think I’m still the master. So, I’m going to work my magic! It’s only fair that you have one to match.”

Sora chuckled and placed both hands behind his head. “Well, I guess we’re off flower picking then huh?” His hips swayed from side to side, his legs acting listless as if they hadn’t moved in hours.

Kairi bounced up on her heels, feeling a renewed vigor in her veins. “Yep! Lead the way, King!”

“King?” Sora’s jaw slacked. “Gosh, when you say it like that it only reminds me of “the King.”

Kairi lightly patted Sora on the shoulder. “Now, now.” Kairi chided. “There can be more than one King and Kings of different things. He may be “the King” but you- you’re my Flower King right?” An impish grin filled her cheeks. Sora blinked a few times before averting his eyes. She could swear a tinge of red was on the tips of his ears.

“Geez flower King? Don’t tell Riku, or Donald or Goofy- I’ll never live that down.”

“But I’m the flower Queen- we have to match!”  Kairi pointed an accusatory finger at him. Sora jumped back a beat, his deep blue eyes tinged with uncertainty. Soon, his eyes swirled with glimmering sunshine, his smile so subtle she found herself itching to gently brush her fingers across his lips. Her cheeks heated at the thought.

“Okay, I mean if you are I have to be then.” Sora put a hand over his mouth to muffle a laugh. Though clearly uncomfortable, there was a hint of joy in those words. Poking fun at him like this was almost too nostalgic. With ease, she slid her hand into his and gave it a tight squeeze. He recoiled slightly before sheepishly squeezing her hand back. His eyes wouldn’t meet hers, but she knew- he was just a tad shy still.

Hand in hand they traversed the woods searching for violet, azure, and fuchsia hues. Their still bare feet brushing against rough patches of dirt and slick grass, staining their toes a light green as they went. The morning dew, still kissing the tips of their hair, kept them cool against the ever-rising sun. Every flower they came across seemed more beautiful than the rest- they gathered until they were spilling out onto the ground beneath them. Sora sneezed a few times, sending them flying much more than he would have liked. The air filled with laughter as they collected them all again, each time regretting having over-prepared their bounty.

They returned to the clearing in no time at all-and she set about her work. Connecting the flowers together wasn’t hard- but choosing which flowers suited Sora best- well that took some thinking. Baby’s breath, delicate and kind, hydrangeas as blue and calming as the sea, red carnations brandishing the passionate courage in his heart, and yellow calla lilies to represent his happy disposition. When she was done- it was a crown only befitting him. When she held it up against the light, the shadows cast across her face danced- truly she could think of it as her best work yet. Smirking and a bit too proud, Kairi stood up and delicately laid the crown atop her “King’s” head.

“I, Flower Queen Kairi dub thee- Sora- Flower King.” In a grand bow, Kairi placed a hand over her heart, glancing up at him with mischief and mirth.

Sora’s wide toothy grin greeted her. “It’s an honor!” He paused, searching his mind before snapping his fingers in the realization of something important. “Does it look Kingly?”

“I think it suits you, just as mine suits me.” Kairi spun on her heels, dancing as she delicately brushed the petals she adorned. She gave Sora a taunting wink as she thrust out her hand. “I’d say a dance is in order, sire.”

A deep laugh escaped his chest as Sora jumped up to grab her hand and pull her close. Their eyes connected as if a thread between them became taught, sure, and certain that the entire world around them could just melt away into nothing, and it would all be alright. One step, then two, a sway and a swish, he even threw in a twirl or two as they danced to the bubbling brook and twilling birds. The melody in their hearts flowed and swirled at a tempo that pulled her into a sense of weightlessness. The countless times she dreamed of the two of them, blissfully dancing, suddenly made it real.

It was real, him, her, this moment. It was a sensation, a scent, a feeling she wanted to bottle up and keep close- like an herbarium filled with preserved flowers. Bright, opulent, and ever so warm. As their dance slowed, and her heart settled, Kairi leaned her head on Sora’s shoulder, letting herself melt into his rising chest. It was then Kairi knew that home wasn’t ever far anymore. That homesickness had long flitted away like petals in the wind once she let Sora into her heart. Now, every time she thought of their memories, these moments, the rise and fall of his chest, his heartbeat…Kairi knew somehow she was always closer to home.

 Years Before

*.*.*.*

The bluff at the edge of town was filled with clover flowers. Though she had been warned with a stern shake of the mayor’s finger, and a disapproving huff or two from the town elders, Kairi always found herself foraging for flowers here. The wind blowing through her hair, and the misty salt air gently caressing her chubby cheeks made her feel more at home here than anywhere else on the island.  In the afternoon quiet, only the rumbling low roar of the waves had been keeping her company. Lightly and carefully, she hummed a melody as she worked, losing herself in knot after knot.

*.*.*.*

“What do you think she’s doing?” Sora muttered in a hushed tone, trying to keep his usually loud voice as quiet as possible. He was huddled on his haunches behind a large hedge, practically wiggling to keep himself from falling over. He and Riku had followed Kairi from a distance like two ducks up the winding hillside. When they had seen her leaving the Mayor’s house she had been stomping and letting out a long-winded sigh or two. Riku had said that she was “probably angry” and that it mostly had to do with her going off alone. Sora, being extremely curious about Kairi ever since she had arrived on the beach, had never not kept watch over her. So, Riku being Riku had suggested they follow her, knowing well that Sora would have found himself trailing after her absentmindedly.

Riku let out a sigh and shook his head. “She’s going to make something again. The last time she came back down from here she had a crown of flowers in her hands. That’s probably what she plans on doing.”

“Hmm, that seems more lonely than fun. She’s all by herself.” Sora pursed his lips, his nose scrunching up. He crossed his arms and readjusted his drooping bum with a light hop. “Seems like it’d be better to do with more people.”

Riku raised a brow, then smirked as he realized something important. “You know, if you want to join her nothing’s stopping you. We can go back to the play island any old time.”

“But it feels like if I go over now, I’d be like- I don’t know- I’d um make her mad…”

“Mad?”

“You always say I talk too much. Kairi seems a bit scared when I do that.” Sora looked down at his fidgeting toes. “Still, I think she’s lonely.”

“She just doesn’t know much about us yet. And well you do talk a lot. My dad says sometimes though that just being near someone without saying anything is enough.” Riku crossed his arms, and nodded, certain his father’s words were true.

“Really Riku?”

“Yeah, Really.” Riku put a hand on Sora’s head and gave his hair a quick ruffle. “Now, no more waiting!” Riku placed both hands on Sora’s back and pushed him forward- not even worried if he would fall over on his face. Usually, he did, and Sora had to brace himself for a fall that didn’t come. Instead, he found himself balancing on one foot and staring into the wide cerulean eyes of a frightened girl.

*.*.*.*

When a rustling bounded behind her Kairi gasped and found herself on her feet, her hands clutched close to her chest. A familiar head of spikes was what first caught her eyes, then the twigs and leaves sticking out every-which-way, followed by the shy grin of a boy caught doing something he shouldn’t.

“Geez, Sora! You scared me!” Kairi tucked her hair behind her ear as if she were suddenly aware of her own messy mop.

“Sorry, Kairi! Me and Riku were just…” Sora paused to look behind him. Not a soul was in sight. “Aw man, where’d he go? We were just talking about…ugh never mind.” Sora stood up straight and puffed out his chest as he shook the stray twigs and leaves from his head. Once he was done, he placed both hands behind his head. “So…what-cha doing?”

“Making flower crowns…” Kairi mumbled under her breath, feeling herself carefully enunciate each word. Sora was nice, after all, he was the one who found her on the beach that day. But a part of her felt scared, nervous, and a bit rumbly in her tummy when she talked to him. He was always so bright, and his grin was wider than his face. Kairi didn’t know how to be around him. Kairi turned her back to him and smoothed the ends of her dress.

“Okay.” Sora uttered. He continued to stare at her, unmoved until she decided to sit back down among her work. As she picked more flowers, she began to take more glances over at Sora. He watched her intently, swaying from side to side on the edges of his sandals. He stayed that way for a beat then promptly plopped down next to her. Kairi’s breath hitched in her throat at the sudden invasion in her little bubble. But Sora didn’t say anything, although his face was twisted into an unnatural frown, alerting her he really did want to say something.

Kairi tried her best to get back to her crown, but she fumbled with shaky fingers as she tied the tiny stems together. Her lips moved into a fine line, her teeth biting down into the corners of her cheeks. Again, soon she became lost in the motions, not even noticing Sora get up and go look around. Moments later he dropped back down next to her, this time, with a handful of clovers.

“It’s really pretty.” Sora blurted out. His eyes were wide, expectant.

A shivering jolt went through her back, and Kairi shyly looked back down at her completed crown. He said it was pretty, what she made. A slight hint of pride wafted through her chest. “Thanks…”

“I-I want one too!” Sora’s voice was louder than he intended, for Kairi almost fell back at the sudden noise. She made sure to quickly put on a smile for the boy looked almost as if he would cry if he knew she was scared.

“Okay, I’ll teach you.” Kairi found a new strength in her voice. She was more confident now. A voice inside her heart, but from where she didn’t know, whispered caressing words.

Whenever you feel lonely, look to the flowers. Surround yourself with them, let them take root in your heart. Every moment may seem small, but you can make them bigger and more beautiful. For those moments when you’re alone, the flowers will remind you of me and of those who love you. That light in your heart will continue to bloom and grow, as long as you let it. Adorn your head with a crown of flowers, my dear. Adorn the head of the one you love. Find that light, never lose sight of it.

  Notes:

Thank you for reading! This fic was inspired by the prompt King and Queen for SoKai Week 2021. Visiting Sora and Kairi's childhood and what they meant to each other during that time was pure joy. I hope that this little bundle of fluff reminds you of the wonder of picking flowers as a child, and how even the smallest acts of kindness can mean the world to someone else. I tried to add in some of Sora's flowers from his herbarium by super groupies as well as flowers that spoke to his personality. Fun fact: Clover flowers were something that I would gather when I was a child, and luckily they do grow at least in Hawaii at high elevations, so it's possible they could be on the mainland in Destiny Islands!

A Broken Shell (Kingdom Hearts Fanfiction)

A muse nipped me in the butt.  Enjoy.

I own none.

A Broken Shell

"So, we visited that world today- the one with the star shaped fruit..."

She watched his face, but Xion saw nothing. To tell the truth, the hope that she'd had burning in her non-existent heart had been whittling away as the days passed. She hadn't really expected Roxas to move, or acknowledge her presence- it was a simple truth she'd come to accept. He may never wake up.

"I brought this back for you, it's a shell, I want you to see it, Roxas..."

She put a coral- colored snail shell on his sheet, careful to not disturb his form.  But she accidentally brushed her arm against his none the less.  He looked like he was simply...taking a nap.  Not that he'd been asleep for three days now.

She could feel the wet things, Axel and her had walked near an arguing couple and he'd explained them. Tears, he'd called them. He said that when people with hearts got really emotional they would sometimes cry, and shed them...she didn't have a heart, though.

Xion punched the edge of Roxas' bed, knocking off the two other offerings on the bed- a flower from a mission on the Beast's world, and a gem she'd found in Agrabah- as well as her newest addition.  The shell fell almost as if in slow motion, clattering and ultimately breaking a bit. She didn't notice, though- she was futilely wiping her eyes, trying to get the water out of them.

" I just want you to wake up, so we can do our ritual...and enjoy the sunsets again...please wake up Roxas..."

Karena keakrabannya dengan sang princess iapun dipercayai Untuk melindunginya dan dengan senang hati Nema Menerima tugas langka itu.

Nemapun akhirnya pasrah, membiarkan kegelapan disekitarnya menenggelamkannya. Tidak lama setelah itu sebuah cahaya muncul dan menyelamatkannya, yaitu adalah 'The Guardian' Hewan²(memiliki human form juga) yg Melindungi Orang² Terpilih. Guardian Milik Nema adalah Ryuro(dark dragoon) - the King of the Darkness. Dia memilih Nema Karena Nema Adalah Seseorang dengan Pure Darkness(darah keturunan ayahnya)---yah, dia juga masih memiliki Pure Light(keturunan ibunya) tapi jarang ia gunakan.

Nema Haus Akan Kekuatan dan Mempersetujui Sebuah Persyaratan Dari sang Guardian, yaitu: Memberikan Setengah Kontrol Dari tubuhnya Untuk Guardiannya(jadi Bisa dikontrol Oleh Ryuro kapanpun ia mau).Pupil mata kirinya menjadi seperti naga Dan putih matanya menjadi hitam, begitu pun kulit tangan kiri(Dari ujung jari hingga siku) Dan kaki kirinya(hanya dibagian paha) memiliki kulit/sisik(whatever) naga. Nema juga mendapat senjata karena persyaratan tersebut, sebuah Scythe Dan sebuah Pure Dark Giant Lance(hanya Bisa dipegang dengan tangan kirinya[tangan Ryuro, kalau dipegang oleh tangan lain/orang lain akan terasa terbakar memegangnya]). Ryuro akan meng-absorb kegelapan Nema dan mengelolanya menjadi kekuatan yg besar. Sifatnyapun berubah drastis, keceriaannya hilang dan Dia Menjadi Orang yg Sangat pendiam,Dingin, dan Cuek dengan segalanya. Yg ia inginkan hanyalah kekuatan jadi dia Bisa menyelamatkan dan membawa pulang satu²nya keluarga yg ia masih miliki saat ini. Dengan terpilihnya Nema Oleh sang Guardianpun Menghapus Sebagian Memorynya, Sekarang yg ia ingat saat Ini hanyalah musibah Ini dan adiknya.

Ditengah² pertarungan orang itu mensummon sebuah dark portal dibelakang Nema dan menendang ulu ati(?)nya dengan sangat kuat, mendorong masuk dia keportal tersebut sekaligus membuatnya pingsan.

Saat is sadar, Nema sudah berada di tempat yg menurutnya aneh. Diperjalanannya ia bertemu dengan banyak orang yg membawa kunci besar yg menurutnya adalah senjata mereka, Untuk berjaga² bila mereka menemukannya dan menyerangnya, Nema mensummon Scythe nya dan Diapun Kaget Disaat melihat weapon yg ada di tangannya, itu jelas adalah kunci besar yg mereka bawa! Tidak percaya dengan matanya dia mensummon berkali² scythe ataupun giant lancenya tetapi nihil, dia tetap mensummon kunci besar yg aneh.

Enough is Enough (Kingdom Hearts Fanfiction)

I don't own Kingdom Hearts, nor any of its characters.  I think people know this, though.  This is a oneshot that can stand alone without the other two stories (even though it mentions Game Night), but I think it portrays Axel just as weird as in the other two.  But then again, he IS really weird in the game, though, ne?

Enough is Enough

Demyx and Roxas both walked down one of the longest corridors- the one to the throne room, perchance.  They knew they were late, but also knew they wouldn't be last, Axel was always last.  He would wait, sometimes, if he needed to- why he needed to be so late no one knew, but it was a well known fact.

dundun dundun

"Dude, did you hear something?  I could've sworn I just heard someone behind me."

"Demyx, you're just being paranoid.  That dog really did affect your nerves, didn't it?  God, you've been paranoid since you got that stone!"

"Yeah, right.  You would be too if you'd seen that thing, it had three frigging heads, plus it was huge- did I mention the three heads, with fangs as long as your arms?"

"You did."

dundun dundun dundundun

"Alright, I definitely heard something, and it wasn't because of paranoia."

Demyx whipped around, looking towards the branching corridors- but saw nothing.  And there was nowhere to hide in the hall, either, so no one had dodged out of view.

"Huh."

"Like I said your paranoid-"

dundun dundun

But Roxas stopped mid-sentence, eyebrows furrowing.

"Okay, I did hear that though."

Demyx gave him an 'I told you so' look that Roxas glared at.

"Don't you dare give me that look, Demyx."

"Well, I did say I heard something."

"No one's here, so maybe it's just an echo of someone further down the hall."

"But we're late, so it can't be an Organization member."

Both looked at eachother at the same time, eyes widening.

"Axel!  Show yourself, we know you're there!"

No one appeared.  But, this wasn't surprising to either member; in fact, they hadn't counted on Axel to make it so easy on them. 

"Why is it," muttered Demyx, "that I have to befriend all the weirdos around this place?  I mean, even Larxene can be freaky, too.  And, no offense- but I mean all you guys.  Even you, Roxas."

"None taken, but it doesn't solve any issues right now, man."

"He's YOUR best friend, not mine.  You solve it.  I'm going to the meeting, whether he frigging trails me or not.  He's already proven himself to be too much of a pansy to show himself."

 dundundun

At these last words, Axel appeared in all his flaming glory about a person's space away from the poor soul.  As a matter of fact, poor Demyx felt the searing heat all over himself, and jumped a little ways back to assure not being fried. 

"What the hell was that for?!"

"I'm NOT a pansy, damnit!"

"Could've fooled me."

He snorted, and Roxas thought he saw his friend's eyes flame for a second.  Now, he decided, was the time to step in, before anyone ended up charred or blown up.

"Whoa, whoa- cool it.  Haven't you guys learned your lessons already?  I mean, Axel, being flooded and locked up with Demyx, and Demyx, being locked up with him?  Do you really want to do that again?"

"Not particularly, no."

"Okay, so stop while ahead.  And we're late as it is, so let's just go already-"

"I was getting ready to," stated Demyx.

Axel walked a little bit behind him, presumably to keep up his 'last one there' reputation.  The other two tried to hurry up down the halls to said meeting, trying not to be too late- although Axel had done enough damage timewise, they were second and third to last, with Axel himself walking in no more than a few moments behind them.  All three were noticed by Xenmas, who continued what he was speaking on to the end of topic, then towards where Roxas and Demyx had tried to hide themselves in the back.

"Well, well- I'm used to Axel being last, yes, but not you two being so close to him in the category."

Their goal of not being noticed blown, they were subjected to the stares of everyone else in the room, including Larxene, who tried to hide a smirk.

"Well," stammered Demyx, "we were on our here, but Axel sidetracked us for a little while.  We tried to rush here, but just didn't make it on time-"

"No excuses for being late, Nine.  Not even Axel."

"Hey, I resent that!  I'm a good enough reason-"

A snort came from one of the other occupants of the room, but there were also less loud agreements- such as nods of the head from many.

"True, he's no good excuse for being late," acquiesced Demyx with a nod.

"Alright, I'm definitely frying you next chance I get-"

"ENOUGH!"

Even Axel shut up at Xenmas' roar.

Game Night (Kingdom Hearts fanfiction)

I don't own any of the Organization members, nor any of the games.

Game Night

"Axel- would you stop it?"

"Why do you always have to act like such a loser compared to Roxas and me?"

"I don't act like a loser, Axel, but you're driving me crazy, though.  You're sure Xemnas said a whole day?"

"Maybe he's still getting back at you for staying sick for four days, man.  Or, it could be the whole flooding problem, water genious."

Demyx had launched a water attack on Axel's room, when pushed to the edge with all his jokes on his cold.  He'd figured that Axel would be able to block it, and he could just vent some anger, but unfortunately he hadn't succeeded in doing so. 

Demyx had managed to flood Axel's room, and apparently Xemnas wanted them to have some quality time, considering he'd locked them in the room.  Not to mention no matter how many portals they opened to get away from eachother (namely Demyx trying to escape from his insane Organization 13 co-worker), it wasn't happening. 

So Demyx had pulled out his Sitar, and Axel continued pacing while muttering under breath about being stuck with a 'lame loser'.  Demyx chose to ignore, and carried on working on his Sitar strings. 

Axel up-stepped his pacing and Demyx would've sworn the room went up a couple of degrees, as well.  Axel started twirling a Chakram around his fingers. 

"Damnit!"

Demyx looked up from where he was sitting, leaned back against his pillow. 

"What now?"

"I'm bored, completely bored- don't you have anything to do except play with that guitar-"

"Sitar, thank you very much-"

"Whatever."

Axel slumped against the wall, letting out a massive sigh.  He looked the room over again- with his eyes- and laughed mentally, unfortunately letting out a snicker.

Demyx looked at Axel again, raising an eyebrow, and Axel burst into laughter.

"This is all your fault, you know.  If you hadn't tried to drown me, I wouldn't be here."

"And if you hadn't mocked me for days, I wouldn't have tried to kill you."

"Don't you have anything to do in here?  At all?"

"I usually don't stay in this room for all day, Axel, there's really not much in here for games or anything.  What I do have is over there, though."

He pointed to a closet like thing in the corner, which Axel strode towards quickly, yanking open the doors.  There were music books in there, as well as some discs.  Which explained the portable CD player next to the bed.  There were a few games in there, as well, mostly kiddy-aged games. 

"Hey," stated Axel, "let's play a game!"

"No, most those are missing pieces."

"C'mon!"

                                               5 Hours Later

BZZZZZZZZZZZ!

"Damnit!I got that thing all the way out, you saw that, man!  It was out!"

"I have to disagree."

Demyx wore a smirk as he pulled his next card, slowly flipping it.

"Let's see…the Funny Bone.  This should be easy."

The game "Operation" had been easy prey for the way-too-bored Axel, and now both guys sat on the bed across from eachother, with the board in the center.  Axel had just attempted his third time on the Wishbone to no avail, and now it was Demyx's turn.

Picking up the tweezers, Demyx reached towards the arm, and then into the slot, carefully picking up said piece.  Axel groaned, but started whining after that the board's nose had glowed, he just had been too busy on picking up the piece to notice.

"No, it didn't flash!"

"Still arguing, huh?"

"Roxas!"

Axel nearly jumped him, and Demyx looked so happy he could burst.  That happiness was short-lived, however.

"You guys are stuck here 'til tomorrow morning, he just let me in for a while, that's all."

Demyx groaned and Axel started whining again.  Roxas grinned, and pulled out a slim, long box. 

"Wanna play?"

                                           2 Hours Later

CLIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICK!

"Let's see," muttered Roxas.  "one, two, three, four- and-"

Axel smirked, Demyx hid a laugh.

"Go and say it, Roxas.  We want to hear what you landed on."

"Twins.  Four spaces and I land on twins.  And I wouldn't be laughing, Demyx, you have a spare car to put your overflow of kids in."

Both Roxas and Axel laughed at this, which was true- Axel was the closest to Demyx's problem, though.  His car was full, as well.  Roxas had almost made it out of the 'childbirth' section of the Life board without kids, but apparently that wasn't going to be happening.

"Damnit," he hissed.  A chorus of 'oooohs' erupted.  Axel burst into childish laughter fits, Demyx didn't feel like being here longer than necessary (nor did he feel like fighting) so he bit his lip this time.  It looked as if Roxas' patience was wearing thin, with the death glare Axel was on the receiving end of.

"What's so funny?  It isn't as if you're not close enough to Demyx's problem!"

"It's just a game, man!  Cool it, already!"

"Do I need to make a tidal wave or something?"

"NO!"

That had gotten both their attentions.  Both their horrified expressions showed that much.

"What, you want to flood your own room now?"

"I don't wanna go swimming again!"

"Wuss," stated Demyx, "you're just upset 'cause you can't swim."

"My element is fire," spat Axel, "not water!  I don't need to get wet."

"Aww, is Axel scared of water-"

"Shut up."

"I think he is, Demyx.  Maybe you should adjust him to it-"

"No, damnit!"

                                          3 Hours Later

"Ace of Hearts?"

"Go fish.  Hey Demyx- 8 of Clubs?"

"Nope."

Their game was interrupted by a click, then the door swinging open.  Larxene stood there, a worried yet cross look on her face. 

"What are you guys doing in here?"

"Xemnas locked us in here after doofus here flooded my room.  Roxas came in a little while ago, but couldn't get out after.  We've just been playing games the whole time."

"You're sure it was Xemnas that locked you in here?  That sounds kind of childish, but I guess after how you guys have been, drastic measures had to be taken…"

"Thanks for opening the door, he forgot about us in here…I think…"

"Demyx, are you doing that stupid insecure thing again?"

All three guys, still bickering, went past Larxene and into the hall- she trailed behind them, hoping she'd done the right thing by letting them out.  She, after all, didn't want to be locked up.

Granted she wasn't as immature as those three…

Lesson Learned (Kingdom Hearts fanfiction)

I don't own Kingdom Hearts. Now that that's out of the way…this is semi-based on the day I just went through. I know, I know…but I just couldn't help myself. Plus, it's an easy way to get it out of my system, ne?

Morning

*sneeze*

He couldn't be sick. Simply couldn't. Nobody's couldn't get sick, so he couldn't be in any sense of the word. But, it sure felt like he was. His head felt like it was going to blow up, his throat was so sore he couldn't speak if he wanted to.

But no siree, Demyx was not sick.

Which is what he told himself, even as he sat across from the toilet, for fear he would cough so hard that he'd be sick. Which, if he didn't, surely blood would be coming up soon- his throat certainly felt raw enough that it was a possibility.

*coughcoughsneezecough*

"Demyx, are you okay in there? I can hear you all the way down the hall, that sounds," a portal appeared in front of him, "horrible. Wow, you look like hell."

Demyx gave Axel a withering glare. He didn't want anyone to see him looking like this, most of all Axel- more than likely, now everyone would know how he looked. Great.

"You could have knocked."

"You wouldn't have answered."

"I would have at least tried."

"Maybe I should do your assignment today. You look like you can't even-"

"I'm fine. I'm not ill."

Later That Day

He'd gotten the stone, yes, but Demyx had not, however, counted on the huge three-headed dog that was currently chasing after him. He fled down the corriders, trying to remember which way he'd come through- damn this maze that was the Underworld.

Not really noticing who it was, he fled past three people. Odd-looking as they were, they still deserved some warning as to what was ahead of them.

"RUN!"

They looked confused, for the split second he saw their faces. Hell, they probably laughed, seeing a Nobody running from something. But, at the moment, Demyx could care less what they thought of him. What he'd been told to do was done, his mission finished. Screw the dog- Xemnas had said nothing of killing him. Otherwise, he would've attempted that…key word, being attempted. That was one HUGE dog. Or, dogs. Depending on a person's point of view, he guessed.

But, mission done, he opened a portal back to Castle Oblivion, and went the throne room to hand over the stone.

Xemnas took it, and also looked over Demyx, taking in his appearance. He was paler than usual, and seemed…off, to say the least.

"Are you okay, number nine?"

"I'm fine, why does everyone keep asking me that? Does something look wrong with me?"

"You just seem…different. But, if you say that you're fine, than I'll take your word on it."

"Good."

Afternoon

He only wanted to relax the night away, not really sleep. But after yet another coughing fit, he found himself lying on his side, and soon enough, asleep.

Well, that is, until he was awakened by yelling and shaking.

"He just won't wake up," Axel yelled, shaking him.

Roxas was there too, apparently, "well, shaking him won't help anything, it'll just make him sore."

"Well, there's not much else I could think of-"

"I'm awake," Demyx muttered, "wide awake, thanks to you guys."

Axel scoffed. "Do you even realize, you were asleep three days!"

Demyx blinked, seemingly confused. Not quite realizing everything they were saying.

"Demyx," Roxas asked, "are you sure you're alright? Sleeping three days isn't exactly normal, for anybody…hell, it isn't even normal for Axel…"

"Are you making fun of me?"

"Well, yeah, actually…"

"I'm fine, better than fine, actually…maybe better than usual…"

"So," stated Axel, "maybe you'll get a mission accomplished?"

"Hey, I got that stone Xemnas wanted so much."

Roxas frowned.

"Did you realize that the Keybearer was right in front of you when you were running away from Cerberus?"

"Oops. No, I didn't know that-"

"And that you easily could have gotten rid of him there?"

"Yet again-"

To Sum It All Up

"You look much better, Number Nine."

Xemnas was fiddling around with the golden stone that Demyx had retrieved…well, four days ago. Unfortunately for Demyx, it had been mentioned by at least one person…who had tossed it to someone else…and so on…that he'd been ill for four days. Eventually, word had hit Xemnas himself. Which was why Demyx stood where he was.

"I feel better, now."

"That is not the point. If you had mentioned it ahead of time, we wouldn't have been one member short for four days. Axel could have easily gotten this for me, and you could have stayed here and got better."

"Yes, I'll remember that from now on. I think I've learned a little from all this, at least-"

"And that would be?"

"To just accept illness and pain, and not fight them off- that that just makes things far worse."

"Good, you may leave."

Demyx bumped into Axel on his way out, and gave him a glare.

"You didn't need to mention that I was asleep so long, or sick…or anything about that time…"

"Why do you think it was me? When would I ever do a thing like that to you?"

"Anytime. And you don't need to lie on that one, I know the truth."

"Well, maybe I said something, but Roxas did too…and then it spread off around the entire place…and I think you know the result by now."

"Yeah, thanks very much."

"Oh well. Lesson learned."
