Okay, since I figured I won't get a chance to work on chapter 3 any this weekend, I decided to post the first part of it right now, and then post the rest later. so without further to do, here's the first part of chapter 3!
------------------
Chapter Three: Dark Rendezvous

Shortly after Hayner had carried off the sleeping Stranger, another stranger, just as mysterious as the last, arrived on the scene. He looks around, inspecting the area that he had watched Hayner trot around in his anger just before carrying off the Stranger, and he thinks that it’s a good thing these long black coats make it difficult to be spotted in the dark. One of the perks of being in the Organization is that the wardrobe can be both fashionable and functional. He then picks up the bundle of sticks Hayner had dropped and picked out a choice one. With an almost blinding burst of light, the end of the stick is instantly set ablaze to light his way.

“All right, time to see where the new guy was born.” He tells himself. He then sets off in the direction that the Stranger had come from only a few minutes earlier. He shortly comes into a clearing, in the middle of which is a large impact site. He instantly thrusts the torch into the ground and places the bundle next to the crater and descends into the hole. He stands at the center and realizes the impossibility of the situation.

After some thought, he raises his arm into the air and gives a loud snap, ringing throughout the forest with the intent to summon. In response, two silver creatures slither into view as if from nowhere, their slender bodies and snake like arms twisting and bending in unnatural and unimaginable ways. Their nearly pale white leather hide greatly contrasts the black leather coat of their master. They stand before the dark robed figure, awaiting instructions.

“Okay, you, on the left. Go find Saix and tell him we have a problem with the matter we discussed. Don’t worry, he’ll know what it is. And you on the right. Go to town and get me a burger, some fries and some sea salt ice cream for dessert. I haven’t eaten anything all day.”

After hearing their orders, the creatures disappear into the air, leaving as silent as they came. Alone again, he turns his attention to the wood, selecting choice pieces and arranging them in a teepee structure. He then immediately harvests some dried field grass and sticks it into the miniature wooden structure. Once finished, he retrieves his torch from earlier and throws it in with the dried grass, and with a wave of his hand over his creation, it immediately ignites. With the surrounding area now a glow in the light of the fire, he sits down on a log and with a sigh, he removes his hood, revealing a man that looks to be in his early twenties with small triangle tattoos under each eye, and spiky, shoulder length hair, as wild and as red as the fire. He stares into the fire and starts to lose himself in the dance of the flames.

FWUMP!

The sound of a large parcel being dropped snaps him out of his trance. He looks over and sees the creature that he sent into a town standing in front of a burlap bag. In his large, spear like hands, he holds a carton of sea salt ice cream. The red haired man walks over to the bag and looks in it, seeing four bags from Twilight Town’s premier burger joint, a stack of paper bowls, a plastic ice cream spoon, and a bag of plastic spoons. He looks at the silver being with a bewildered look on his face.

“How the hell did you lug this bag with that scrawny Dusk body of yours?” He asked, scratching his head. He then reached into the bag and pulled out one of the bags and proceeded eating. “Hey, why don’t you go scout out where the newbie is?” He asked, bread and beef crumbs spilling out his mouth. Just as soon as he had finished with his request, the Dusk slithered back into nothingness, disappearing once again.

By the time midnight had approached, the man in black had already eaten two bags worth of food and had started on preparing his dessert. He scooped some of the ice cream into the bowl gusto and vigor, and as he retrieved a plastic spoon, he began thinking of how much he loved Sea Salt ice cream before he was transformed. Just as he was about to enjoy his favorite ice cream, the Dusk slithered back into view.

“Typical” He said to himself, rather peeved. “I’m always interrupted when I’m trying to enjoy my favorite ice cream.” He sets his bowl down and concentrates on the Dusk, he stares at it with intent in his eyes, resting his chin on his interlaced fingers. After about a minute, he once again speaks.

“Okay, he’s in a back alley that was made into a hideout by a couple of kids. Good work. Now, I have one more task for you. Saix told me that this mission was top priority, handed to him straight from the boss man’s mouth. It’s been four hours since I sent your buddy to fetch Mr. ‘Top Priority’ Saix, and he has yet to show that mug he calls a face. Go see what’s taking so long.”

With its last order, the Dusk slithers into the air and then into nothingness one final time. Relieved to be free of distractions, he once again picks up his ice cream bowl. He picks up the spoon and brings it to his lips. He drools in anticipation as he is about to taste the sweet, salty, taste that has made Sea salt ice cream beloved through out the worlds.

“Good evening Axel” a voice rang out from the air. “Am I interrupting anything?”

Now he shows up, a very annoyed Axel thinks. He puts the spoon down and returns the bowl to the ground. Wisps of Darkness sprout out of the ground and weave a door to the plane of existence known as Betwixt and Between. Emerging from that door is the right hand of the superior, Saix, the Lunar Diviner!

Chapter 3: Dark Rendezvous PT-2: Confrontation.

“YOU’RE LATE!” Axel barked! “Do you have any idea how long I’ve been waiting!?!”

“My apologies.” Saix stated calmly, with his arms crossed and pressed against his lower chest. The Dark Corridor that he had exited from started to slowly dissolve as Saix slowly approached Axel, still seated on the log, tending the fire. “I was… held up in certain matters.”

Axel peers over his shoulder, analyzing his compatriot. “Whatever.” He murmured, and he then returned his gaze towards the fire.

“So, refresh my memory, Axel.” Saix said with a coy look in his eye. “What exactly is the matter at hand?”

“The other worlds are very beautiful so far away from town.” Axel said with wonderment.

“Yes I’m sure they are. Now if we can get back on track, what exactly are you doing here? Does it have anything to do with that rather large hole?” Saix asked, still sounding rather coy.

“Think it might rain tomorrow? It’d be a damn shame if it did?”

Saix, no longer calm, started to get irritable with Axel.

“Right. Stars. Rain. Bad thing. Now just tell me—“

“Although, if you think about it, a little rain might do this forest a world of good. When I was looking for stuff to start the camp fire with, I saw a lot of dried grass. That can’t be—“

Saix, far past annoyed with Axel dodging the questions, spun him around to look him in the eyes while holding on jerking him by the collar.

“Dude, personal space!”

“I don’t give a rat’s ass about your personal space! Tell me what the Hell you’re doing here right now!” Saix roared his face scrunched in anger. After a few seconds of thought, Axel hoisted up one of the two remaining bags he had retrieved from the burlap sack.

“You ordered the Holly Halitosis special with extra onions and onion rings, right?”

“THIS IS WHY I CAME ALL THE WAY TO TWILIGHT TOWN FOR?!? A STUPID SANDWICH?!?” Saix roared, enraged beyond belief. So enraged, that he almost didn’t notice the fire erupting in Axel’s unoccupied hand and solidifying into a large bladed chakram! At the last second, He managed to jump back, releasing Axel as he brought his chakram around in a horizontal swipe against the bewildered Saix, scraping him through his skin. He jumps back just out of Axel’s lunging distance, pressing a forearm against the cut across his stomach.

“Axel, what is the meaning of this!? What has brought about this betrayal!?” Saix demanded, but Axel, now on his feet, starts to laugh.

“Don’t patronize me Zexion, you limp wristed sissy!” Axel cackled, as he twirls around his chakram. He flings the bag out into the forest, as he chuckles maliciously. “I know it’s you. Drop the illusion!”

After hearing this, Saix lowered his head, and a pale blue light enveloped his body and he began to change. His form became smaller, his physique became less defined, and his long, dark blue hair and rugged, aged features dissolve away, revealing a youth to be about 21 with short gray hair, excluding the bangs that cascade over his right eye. This was none other than No. 6 of the Organization, Zexion, the Cloaked Schemer, posing as Saix! He looked back up towards Axel, anger burning on his face.

“How did you know?” Zexion demanded, far away from the cool and calm persona that had helped him wrap hundreds of beings around his finger. “My illusion was seamless! Sight, sound, even his scent was duplicated perfectly to scream Saix!”

“Tch, tch, tch!” Axel said, waving his finger back and forth. “You have a long way to go if you honestly believe you’ll be able to fool anyone with a trick like that! You really have got to improve your acting skills.”

“MY ACTING SKILLS?!? What does acting have to do with anything?”

“Everything! While your illusion was seamless, as you have said, your body language, your speech, and even your persona gave you away! Saix isn’t that well spoken, and he doesn’t cross his forearms and press them against his body like you did. And he defiantly doesn’t like to beat around the bush by asking me time consuming questions, and unless you’re the big boss, he never ever apologizes to anyone! Before you try to impersonate other people, need to learn everything about who they are. I suggest that you take that little tip and commit it to memory. Now, it’s time for you to answer my question. Where’s Saix?”

Zexion, taking this chance to compose himself. “He’s not coming.” He stated calmly. “I intercepted the Dusk before he could get the message. But it doesn’t matter. Axel, I demand that you tell me what’s going on here! As one of the original six, my word—“

“Means jack squat!” Axel interrupted.

“What did you say?” Demanded Zexion in a low, hushed tone, his visible eye glaring at Axel.

“You heard me. Don’t think that I don’t know about how Saix bumped you out of the position of being the Boss’s right hand. I honestly can’t blame the boss for replacing you though, if the haphazard tactics from earlier tonight are anything to go by.”

“HA-HAPHAZARD!?! REPLACED!?!” Zexion stuttered, looking as if he’d been shot.

“Why, of course! Why else would he have you babysit the lower levels of Castle Oblivion? Your methods are slow, delicate, and have a high failure rate. It’s probably your fault why the project is so far behind schedule.”

“YOU’RE LYING!”

“Sorry Zexy, but face facts. You’re like me now. Disposable.”

“DAMN YOU!” Zexion yelled. He then holds out his hand and a book appeared in the same pale blue light that Zexion emitted when he dropped his illusion. “I TOLD THE SUPERIOR THAT RECRUITING YOU WAS A BAD MOVE, AND NOW I PLAN ON RECTIFYING IT!”

“Huh, so that’s your Mad illusionist. Never seen it before.” Axel then stretched out his empty hand and fire once again erupted from nowhere and solidified into a second Chakram. He then crouches down; his feet spread apart diagonally, and crossed his arms, ready to attack.

“Let’s see how you and your Mad illusionist stand up to my Flyin’ Hellfire!"

Chapter 3: Dark Rendezvous Pt-2: Confrontation. End.

ZEXION WAS POSING AS SAIX?!? OMGWTF!?!?_O:

Okay Now that that's out of the way, let's get serious. I know I said that I'd post the rest of Chapter 3 today, but there's just so much that I want to do, I started to think it'd be easier to post it in seperate parts. There will be at least two more parts, if everything works out alright. Don't worry all, Roxas is still the star of the show, we're just taking a small detour a little longer before we get back to him in chapter four, where we are going to join him and Olette on a little shopping trip.

On a seperate note: YAY! A fight scene is next! I'm excited. Although I'm going to tell you right now, I've never played FM+, so I don't want to hear "that's not how Zexion fights" or anything like that. I've never seen him fight, so he's gonna fight the way I want him to, alright?

Also, Some of you may have guessed that "Mad Illusionist" and "Flyin' Hellfire" are the names that I've given their weopons. I really didn't know if they had names already, but GOSH DARN IT! I wanted them to have names!

Okay, so that's whats up. Until next time, keep doing your best!:thumbup:

[Staulmaster]

I'm jealous! Your Axel seems so much cooler than mine!

Anywho, this second part was really cool, you seemed to have captured Axel and Zexion's personality perfectly. Plus, you made it so that the whole Castle Oblivion thing was planned even before Roxas came into the organisation. I like that.

I certainly hope that this fight scene will be amazing. XD

P.S. You added me to your buddy list? Cool! I'll add you too.

[Roxi-chan]

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!~
I loved this!!! YAY!!!!!
I want more!!!~
But shall wait patiently, like a good girl.

[Darkness of White]
