Larxene had to hold in a gasp as she felt someone touch her from behind, and was about to deliver a blow with her elbow, until she had heard the voice she had gotten to know well. But even as she was attentive of this, it was too late for her to stop them from transporting, and after the swirls of darkness disappeared, she found herself in what seemed to be a huge study, where Roxas was standing in front of a desk, black cloak and uniform all on as well. A light, little "meow" was called, and she looked sideways to see Adhira still with her. Good. She was her only real companion. Roxas had waited for Ansem to come for a long while now, after he had to excuse himself to find out what was keeping Larxene so long and his apprentice. He guessed that the female was maybe giving everyone a bit of trouble, if her attitude from when he had seen her said anything. To take the time to his advantage, he had changed into the black clothes he was given, and just finished adjusting the zipper in his cloak as a light swoosh soung serenated in the room, and he saw the young scientist and Larxene, already dressed, with a little small kitty on her shoulder. Roxas widened his eyes. "Larxene!"
Axel inspected her face carefully for any trace of lying, but found none. So that was the truth, she didn't understand herself. He guessed that it will remain a question mark, then. But like her, he wasn't sure on why he was intent to know this so bad either, so he only explained what caught his interest in the first place. "Because why would a Prep like you, think about a Skater like me, when we're suppose to be enemies? And...why me?" He wasn't positive if she could answer that either, so he might as well had let it go. Though he wanted to see if she would respond or not, or just go away.
Larxene had to block the other half of the table, and then evade the shards thrown at her, which she managed flawlessly, making sure Adhira was safely perched on her shoulder blade. She was tired, she knew that, the long minutes that she had wasted her lighting and energy to escape from Zexion's grasps had taken its toll, however small. Great. Her home was being destroyed by a pack of idiots. Now what?
Axel chuckled to himself, not noticing the danger that was spying on them, swirling around from behind her and placing his body in front of hers as he climbed two more steps, a small smirk on his face at her action. He lifted her chin up with his knuckles softly, making her look at him, and find that her face was once again, red. It was better than what he expected, though he was still lost on what was wrong with her. Axel gazed at her steadily, before pulling his hand away, and speaking. "Don't hide your face from me, I don't care if you blush or not, is nothing to be embarassed about. Blushing makes you look sweet , overshadows the snappy, cold b*tch that you always show. And is cute on you." It was then he got on the topic he wanted to pursue. "I wasn't doing anything. I just....want to begin where we left off in our conversation. You ran away before you could've answered my question, remember?"
Larxene had easily dodged the attack, simply sidestepping as her punch hit the wall, breaking a hole through it. She raised her eyebrow, noting this wasn't a normal woman, let alone human like she was. It didn't take long for her to figure that this was perhaps the enemy that Zexion had been talking about. It was in another unexpected surprise as a man with...pink hair had attacked Aerith across her neck while she was distracted. However, this one, had the black cloak. An ally, or was, if she didn't want to be in their group. Aerith didn't get fazed and charged at the new inhabitant quickly, only for Larxene to hear Zexion's voice. Her anger was flaring again. She was getting quite annoyed that all these people were barging in her house, like if this was a mosh pit or a wrestling ring. Narrowing her eyes at them both, she asked, "If you're going to fight, take it the hell outside!!"
OOC: I wish I could talk xD, but Tifa is busy with Rei, and...Axel, ya know. I'll just write something though. "Did you say something, Cloud?" Tifa exclaimed in her hoarse, need of a liquid tone, breathing rapidly, not straying her eyes from Rei in case she made a move.
Larxene sat right up as she heard the sudden intrusion, the shards from her window dropping and breaking into little sands of glass. It didn't matter, her home was dusty and in need of cleaning since it hasn't been taken care of, and that was just another mess that was poinlessly added. Adhira skillfully jumped onto Larxene's shoulder, immediately setting its glowing blue eyes at the new person, tensed and steady. Larxene was also quite startled, though not as she should've since she kind of expected something like this to happen. Yet, she didn't expect to see this brown-haired woman standing there, to kill her. She stood up cautiously out of her bed, her high-heeled boots clicking on the floor as she semi-circled this...what was she? Adhira gave a growled hiss at the woman, and Larxene simply smirked, eyeing her up and down distatefully, and not impressed. "You look more like a daycare teacher for someone who wants to destroy me. If you want to kill me, try. But first, who are you?"
Larxene was laying calmly on her bed for awhile, the air of the familiarty of home soothing her turbulent feelings, and given her a peaceful sensation. A poster of a dance tryout for musicals and ballet was crumpled into her hand, as it was too late now to even bother with it. The dateline had passed, way passed. Clutching the rolled up sheet tightly in her palm, with a hiss, she threw it across the room, slamming a fist into her matress at the disappointment and hopelessness she was experiencing. Is all their damn fault. Her apartment was small, but homey, and nuzzled into her pillow, the black cloak and uniform she had still on. It was barely heard, but her sense snapped when she heard the "meow" of a kitty, and was suddenly greeted by her tiny baby yellow furred feline, who jumped on the bed and headed towards her face, licking her nose. The cat's ears were like a caracal's, its tips black, and she had four, fluffy tails, with black markings at the end. Its paws were also colored black, and for those who knew, this wasn't a normal kitty. A small trace of a smile passed Larxene as she went to caress her pet's head. "Adhira..."
"What the hell is going on?!" Axel shouted, running over to where the commotion was, barely recuperating from his full stomach. He widened his eyes as he saw Angel dangling from her sword, and Saïx on the bottom. Only for him to let go and plunder into the deep sea. Axel immediately leaned over the edge of the side of the ship in shock, looking down at Saïx's splash. Is he freaking insane?!
OOC: Oh right, the recap. It's all on page 188, but basically is that Larpex comes, ordered by Xin, or Marina now, to heal and help Reixa. Once she was done, Reixa was able to stand, and made her crystal glow ready for another attack. Axel was bored, and so he thought about fighting Larpex and to know her abilities. The two (Larpex/Axel) sent each other witty remarks, and Axel teased Reixa a bit in the end. And thus, we wait for chula-claire, as she plays Larpex xP.
OOC: For some reason, I feel special that I'm a part of your secret plot xD. But Nymph is on right now, BTW.
OOC: Patience is a virtue....=D. Kidding. I know how you feel though.
I think the Marquis de Sade book was simply a joke, like always, on the author's part. Since Larxene is sadistic, he just kind of placed the book of the man who was the namesake of sadism. I don't think there's anything else other than that connection that was meant to be placed. People take it seriously though xD. I read many fanfics where Marquis de Sade is like her freaking favorite book, and decapitates anyone who touches it xP. Not to mention, it drove people to think that she reads novels. Though it does fit her. I take more game canon than manga canon, because the manga goes its own way. Larxene, even thought she represents feminism and a bit of, you have to admit, sensuality (the sensuality part of her goes overboard in the manga, that is self-explainable -_-), I don' think she's the sexual sadist either, like most put her to be. She seemed more like a bully, than anything. Loves putting people down, she crosses your personal borders to make you edgy about her, and she loves to hurt others when fighting and seeing the pain she gives them, but other than that, Larxene taunts to annoy, mostly (a example would be when she keeps giving biting remarks at Repliku,, and he gets so irritated, he charges and attacks her. That didn't end well for him). But that's all I saw. Her other assets of her personality, are that she's playful, naïve, flirty, coy, has dry and ill humor, arrogant, confident, extremely prideful, and laid-back when not battling. That's normal. And she seemed to be cool and someone to hang out with to the people who she doesn't mind their company. And evertyime I watch her in a scene, I keep seeing that she's a deeper character than what was presented. Mostly, is her death that got to me. How Larxene is sadist, I don't know. I don't think is sure whether you're born with it, or it grows overtime. Maybe is just something people enjoy. But like califa630 said, is probably her way to feel, in other words, her "Proof of Existance". We don't know much about her character to guess what made her the way she is now. She might have had a bad past, learned from a bad environment, who knows.
OOC: *sigh* Nobody's here T.T. I just finish all my work right now, so I'm bored -_-. Oh well, off to read some fanfics.
All I have to say on this is: Kairi and a Keyblade. LOL. Naminé with a Keyblade? LMAO. Not that I doubt them or anything of the sort, is that Kairi had never shown any type of physical backbone from what we saw of her, and even as she tried to get Sora or help in KH2, she failed as she became a damsel-in-distress again, but got saved by Naminé this time. Her personality from KH1 made a impression on me, and it stuck. She is too girly and looked very pathetic, IMO, when she was swinging that girly keyblade as if she was some tough chick. Imagining Naminé with a Keyblade is even more weird, cause the girl is so angelic and so frail looking that if you touch, it looks like she'll break. It just doesn't fit, at least outside. She's better off with her own memory manipulating powers, which serve more of a purpose and is very powerful considering it affects the hero and all those around him. She's cool like that. Is like Saïx said when Kairi and Naminé held up their fists. "If I had a heart, this is where I would die of laughter." Cause, you know, is true. They just don't look like the fighting types and possess absolutely no threat. You have to be taken seriously to gain respect like that. Though if it was Larxene and Tifa, then you'd have something to worry about.
OOC: Marluxia is with Larxene though =O, xD. Well, there are football, baseball, and soccer fields around the school, if that helps. I'm surprised SigSig isn't here though....
OOC: Is sweet? Really? xP Oh, it's nothing. Just that after Larxene admitted that the whole reason she attacked and blamed him before was because he kept popping up in her mind, and he asked "Why do I pop up in your mind?", but she never answered, as she ran away from him. Axel tried to stop her, but she was all blushing and panicking, and so she pushed him away, and he let her be in the end.
Axel was debating on whether or not to go up the stairs and confront Larxene. She had already seen Rei as the two were giving each other cold stares, so might as well take it since the blonde was aware that people were actually there. Sighing, he slowly stepped forward, quietly, going up the flights as he knew that Cloud and the rest were probably waiting. Thinking of before, when she had panicked and blushed just by the mere stare he gave her, Axel paused for a while, getting a idea, curious to see her reaction, and in the end, bravely went for it. As he slid secretly on her figure, still dressed in her uniform while he was casual in clothes, he sucked in air, as he smoothly circled a arm around her waist, bringing her back to rest into his chest, holding her, as his face nuzzled into her neck from behind, exhaling out the breath he had inhaled, whispering, "You still haven't answered my question."
Tifa had to admit she was getting quite giddy over this, and for what she didn't feel with Cloud, she felt it fighting Reixa. The excitement of a battle was undescribable, though both were holding back. She simply hunched her shoulders up and down, cracking them from being stiff, and stretched her hurt arms, not minding the pain, but she had worse before. Again, Tifa had run off just as she felt better, making certain that her blows were somewhat soft, though she gave more strength. Whatver the case, Rei seemed to predict her moves somehow, so there was more to her than she thought. Tifa soon found herself on the ground below the girl, rapidly giving her a upwards kick into her chin, and twirled her legs to land another kick on the cheek without wasting any time, and sent one last upward kick on her stomach, bruising her, but also making her almost rise up in the air, and doing a backwards flip, giving her another hit on the chin as her leg soared up, she grabbed Rei from mid-swing from her arms as she balanced again on her feet, and slammed her into the ground, only to lift her up, and sending her backwards to slam her again. Tifa had to this part carefully, holding on to Rei so she didn't hit the cement ruthlessly, just enough to shake her. Leaving her to lie down on the roof, Tifa jumped, getting on her former stance again, ready for anything else. She gulped at her dry throat. "Man, I need some water. At least the wind is cool." OOC: Oh yeah, about what's happening. Cloud and Axel are about to have a friendly spar, but Axel is distracted as he spotted Larxene going up the stairs to the roof, so to waste time, Rei and Tifa are sparring for fun, while Cloud keeps waiting for the red-head. Which reminds me I have to write about Axel xP.
OOC: Why is Reixa scowling, I wonder *raises eyebrow*. Nah, just playing xD. I'll make Axel tease her a bit in this post. "Trust me, Larva, I wouldn't have paraded over to you if I had the chance, but boredom was killing me and you're the only one available, it seems, so you have to deal with sexy little old me. And what I inquire of you is a small...joust." He gave her one of his little amusing smirks here. "After all, redheads have more fun, right?" Spotting the look Reixa gave him, Axel sent her a quick wink as he stared over at her. "Don't worry, Spitfire. You'll get a piece of me soon enough, I know you want it!" However, his attention on her didn't stay long as he diverted it to, what the girl called herself, Lar, which reminded him of what he sometimes called Larxene other than "Buggy", Lar-Lar. Though this one here was Larva, for some weird reason she just reminded him of one.
