Chapter 8: Run Ins and an Unwanted Mission
The next morning Kaily awoke to the smell of coffee. She glanced at her digital clock and noticed that it was 10:31 A.M. Xia must be up already. She crawled out of bed and made her was to the kitchen.
Kaily looked about the kitchen, expecting to see Xia; except it was empty. She looked at the table and saw a piece of paper from the notepad that sat by her phone. She picked up the note and read it.
Kaily,
Went out to explore, will try to be back by 3:00. Made coffee; it's on the stove.
Xia
P.S. I found out that I really hate coffee. DX disgusting!
Kaily smirked as she looked over to the stove and saw the coffee pot; sure enough, it was full with only a cup worth missing. She strode over and poured herself a cup. She sipped and cringed. Somehow, Xia had managed to burn it. Is it even possible to burn coffee? She shook her head slightly as she dumped what was in her coffee cup and pot down the drain before walking into the living room to watch TV.
Xia stopped and looked around at her surroundings. She wore a pair of blue jeans, a low-cut black shirt with three quarter sleeves, black high heeled boots, and a black purse. Her hair was not put up and hung down her back. Geez this world is big! She pulled a turquoise phone out of her purse and clicked through the inventory until she found her maps. Lately she had started carrying two phones. Her purple phone for communicating and the turquoise for creating maps for the worlds she visited. She flipped through the lists of world maps until she came across the map for Earth, which was this world. She scanned over the miniature map; a small purple dot signifying her location, Kailys apartment was signified by a green diamond.
Xia estimated that she was now about four miles away from the apartment. She suddenly received the presence of someone looking over her shoulder. She looked behind her and caught sight of a man not much older than she was. He was tall, with short wispy brown hair and gray eyes.
"Nice phone." He said smiling smugly.
"Thanks." Xia responded coldly, returning her phone to its pocket insider her coat. She didn't like this guy. He was too smug looking.
He smiled again. "My name is Dane." Dane said, sticking out his hand.
"That's nice." She said before turning and quickly walking away. She heard Dane jog up behind her. Persistent bastard. He caught up with her and began walking at the same pace she was.
"I don't give up that easy you know." He said smugly.
"Does this look like the face of a person who cares?" Xia retorted, glaring at him from the corner of her eyes. He gave her another smug look. The smugness is really starting to get on my nerves.
"Well-"Dane started before Xia's purple phone rang, playing the chorus of the song Je N'ai Pas De Mots by Vic Mignogna. Xia stopped walking and quickly answered; Je N'ai Pas De Mots was Demyx's ringtone.
"Hello love!" She said happily. Dane stopped to listen to the conversation.
"Hey babe! How are you?" Demyx's voice came just loud enough for Dane to hear.
"I'm fine. How are you doing without me?" She heard him groan.
"I'm miserable!" He whined. "I'm tempted to find you and hang out with you." Xia laughed. "Don't laugh when I'm being serious!" She laughed again slightly. She could practically hear her boyfriend pouting on the other end of the line.
"Alright, alright. So how are things holding up?"
"Who are you talking to?" Dane interjected. Xia gave him an 'it's none of your damn business now go fall in a hole and die' look and proceeded to walk again. He continued to follow her as Demyx answered her previous question.
"Things are holding up fine. Xemnas is getting a little pissy since Axel keeps disappearing." Xia smirked.
"Well, more power to Axe-" She felt Dane touch her shoulder. That's it! This has gone on long enough! "WOULD YOU LEAVE ME ALONE!?" Xia yelled, spinning around to face him. Dane jumped at her sudden outburst.
"Xia what's going on? You almost broke my eardrum!" Xia returned her attention to the phone.
"I'm sorry Demy. It's just that I'm being FOLLOWED by some guy." Demyx was silent for a moment.
"Let me talk to him." He said finally in a serious tone. Xia handed the phone to Dane. Who answered it with a curious 'hello?'
"Stop following her; if you continue following her than I'll be forced to find and kill you." Demyxs voice was dripping with venom. Danes expression became shocked.
"Isn't that a little drastic?" Dane replied his voice shaky.
"Not really. Actually I won't have to kill you." Dane sighed with relief. "She'll beat me to it." His eyes widened as he looked at the girl in front of him; she was turned to the right and looking at him from the corner of her eye, smirking sadistically. Demyx continued. "You see, Xia is a little bit of a psycho; piss her off too badly and you're as good as dead. And right now, you're digging yourself a grave. Now, I want you to give Xia her phone back and leave. You have ten seconds to get out of her sight; if you aren't then you're free game. Now return the phone." Dane consented and handed the phone to Xia. She took the phone and flipped it shut before turning to face him, revealing that she had been listening to the conversation via the turquoise phone held to her left ear. She bore a cruel smile before beginning to count.
"One" Dane realized that the couple had been serious with the threat and the color drained from his face. "Two" Dane turned and tripped over his feet. "Three." He scrambled to his feet and bolting away as fast as he could as Xia reached five. He had just turned the corner as she reached ten.
Xia laughed. "Is he gone?" Demyx asked.Xia continued to laugh. "I'll take that as a yes. Hey Xi, I have to go."Xia stopped laughing.
"Awww! Xia sad now." shepouted.
"I'm sorry. They just called a meeting. They're probably going to call you too." Xia's expression became serious again.
"Alright. I love you."
"I love you too." Both hung up; Xia's phone rang, playing Uncle Fucker from South Park; Saïx's ringtone. She answered it with an impatient 'what?'
"Meeting. Now." He said briefly before hanging up.
"Whatever." She replied before clicking the phone shut. She looked around for a good place to form a portal. She spotted an alley and slid into it, forming a portal around her and disappearing.
Xia reappeared in her throne at the World that Never Was. Everyone was present, even Axel. I must be the late arriver. Xemnas cleared his throat and began to speak in his normal monotone voice. "Now that we're all here, let's get down to business, shall we."
"Yeah yeah," Axel said in a bored tone. "What's this meeting about?" Xemnas shot daggers at the redhead before continuing.
"It concerns the keyblade master." Axel looked at the Superior, a twinge of curiosity in his eyes. Xemnas meanwhile, switch his gaze between Demyx and Xia. "The two of you said that he would wake in a year if memory serves me well," Both nodded "he'll be waking in ten months, which means he'll more than likely be out of practice." A few of the other members exchanged glances. "If he's out of practice, there is a chance that he might fail. We can't afford this."
"What are you suggesting Superior?" Saïx asked.
"I believe it would be best if we sent a member to 'join' and look after him."
"Who exactly would you plan on sending? Our numbers are already low as it is." Xaldin threw in.
"I am aware of this; and I have already thought over who should go." The organization looked at each other, the same question on each member's mind; who would be forced to baby-sit the keyblade bearer? Xemnas continued. "I decided the most qualified member for this mission would be Xia."
"WHAT!?" Xia screamed in outrage. "What makes you think I'm qualified!?" the male members came back with multiple answers all at once.
"You can get people to trust you." Saïx said.
"You're a good liar." Luxord threw in. He'd learned of this trait of Xia's due to several lost games of B.S.
"You're a chick, who doesn't trust a chick?" obviously Xigbar.
"You're nice." Demyx.
"You're a skilled fighter." Axel.
"You're the youngest member, meaning you're closer to his age." Xaldin's. Xia started getting fed up with this. Though she had to admit, most of their reasons were reasonably true.
"Shut up already! Fine, I'll baby-sit the keyblade brat!" She shouted at the others who all fell silent.
"Very well, when Sora wakes up, you will convince him to let you join his team and you will look after him; you can also report on anything that happens during that time." Xemnas said. Xia scowled, clearly not liking the idea. "Very well, this meeting is dismissed." All members of the organization disappeared except for Axel, Demyx, and Xia; who sat seething and wishing truly horrific things upon the Superior.
"Xi? Are you ok?" Demyx asked her.
"I'm fucking peachy!" she snapped, not looking at him.
"Sorry you got stuck with this mission Xi; but when you think about it, you are the best pick for this." Axel sympathized. Xia sighed in defeat.
"I know, doesn't mean I like it any better." She paused for a moment. "Well, I'll be getting back to my vacation. Care to join me? I met this really cool girl that you simply have to meet." She offered. Both Demyx and Axel nodded and joined Xia in a portal back to Earth to meet her knew friend.
Tia: FINALLY!! Chapter 8 is complete! I'm so sorry it too so long and its so short. Next chappie will hopefully be better.
