Hey, guess what! You've just recieved a scholarsip to a new university that opened in Japan! It's supposed to be a school for the gifted, but when you arrive you are greeted by none other than L himself! Once settled, you are quick to realise that every teacher is actually a Death Note character, including Light Yagami himself, though he has lost his memories of being Kira (in short, the likeable Light from when Ryuk takes the Death Note). However, not all is safe in L's academy. A nameless Shinigami has dropped a Death Note there. When this is picked up by a students, it becomes a race against time to discover these new Kiras before the world is once again in danger. Worst of all, Light could regain his memories. (Note: Sorry if this is too similar to Return of Kira. I just had this idea kicking around in my head, so I went for it) Every Death Note character is available to be played, though we need at least 2 students. I play my OC and any canon characters that are not yet filled. I'm not confident with canon personalities, so... yeah... I don't want this to suck. If you are a character with a Death Note, you may only kill another character if you abide by these rules. 1. Your character must have somehow found out their name. 2. The person playing that character must come to some agreement with you (i.e. delaying the death, dramatic death etc...) The circumstances of this agreement may cause Rule 3 to become invalid (i.e. accidental death) 3. Must speak to the character immediately prior to the death in a similar manner to what Light did with Naomi, L and Near (at least, tried to with Near ). You know, "I'm Kira, and you're dead now, mwuhahahahaha!" except more subtle. 4. Give other characters at least SOME chance to stop you. (i.e. interrupt you when you're about to write their name, switch your Death Note for a fake like Near did or soemthing along those lines). Apart from that, feel free to kill random people not played by anyone. (If they're unfilled canon characters i.e. those played by me, discuss with me as if I officially played them) Canon characters (so far): L: Random Angel Matt: Random Angel (as a student, though) Near: Random Angel Mello: Demitryx Ryuk: Advent_of_apocalypse Beyond Birthday: CarbuncleGem OCs: Plauyed by Paladin12345678 Name: Snake Real Name: Marcus Gender: Male Age: 15 Appearance: A gangly teenager that looks a lot older than he really is with brown hair and blue eyes. He usually wears a hoodie and jeans. Backstory: Grew up as a more or less average kid in the first part of his life. His mother died in childbirth while giving birth to his brother. Marcus was two at the time. His father got involved with the dark side of the world after that and one day Marcus discovered his father's name and picture on the news for a murder. Mere hours later, Marcus discovered that his father had been killed by Kira. He and his little brother were taken to different orphanages. Marcus eventually found foster parents and in time managed to win the scholarship to L's academy. Marcus promised that once he graduated, he'd use his new skills to track down his little brother. Personality quirks: Likes video games almost to the point of obsession, hence the codename Snake (taken from Solid Snake, star of the Metal Gear Solid series). When explaining theories he tends to use video games as explaination and spends most of his free time gaming. Played by: Random Angel Name: Jenesis Real Name: Amanda Michiyo Gender: Female Age: 17 Appearance: http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e3...tehairgirl.jpg Backstory: Her father is Japanese but her mother is an American. Through out school she was picked on for being half American in an all Japanese school. Which made her into a rebel Personality Quirks: Smokes and is good with electronics and mechanic etc Played by Demitryx Name: Luna Real Name: Lana Lawliet Gender: Female Age: 15 Appearance: Just under 5 feet tall, long perfectly curled black hair. Always keeps her lower arms covered with either sleeves or some form of arm warmers. Her preference being her favourite black and white striped ones with ‘corset’ style lacing down the sides. The rest of her clothes tend to be feminine but also very gothic. Luna is also skinny to the point of being able to see nearly all her ribs. Back story: She grew up in a rather run down orphanage / children’s home in Kent, England where she was despised by the other children and often ignored completely by the adults. The name similarity between her and L is no coincidence, she is in fact a relative of him. Though it’s so distant that neither of them know nor would either care. She completed the English Education system by the time she was 13 and finished her first course at Oxford university the year before she came to Japan. She is fluent in Japanese and German as well as her first language of English thanks to her speed at picking up languages. Personality quirks: Luna spends most of her spare time with either a ‘classic’ book such as ‘Jayne Eyre’ or a shounen-ai Manga such as ‘Loveless’ Either way it’s very rare to see her minus a book of some sort. She also has a tendency to sit on the floor whenever possible. Normally in a very childlike manner. Being insanely accident prone and a rather large jinx is also another issue Luna faces. Played by CarbuncleGem Name: Diary Real Name: Destiny Hazard Gender: Girl Age: 17 Appearance: Long, straight dark brown hair and dark blue eyes, but her eyes change colors. 5'3", and always wears loose grey or blue jeans and some long sleeved shirt or sweatshirt. Backstory: She lived in America before getting the scholarship for this new school, although most of her teachers and peers were shocked to hear that she was accepted into the school. She had never gotten great grades, although her test scores were amazing. She was made fun of by some fellow students, though she ignored them, and really only spoke when answering a question from a teacher or when around her close friends. This was not because she was shy, but because she had nothing to say. Personality Quirks: Diary usually never sits normally, she sits with either one or both feet on the chair she is sitting on. Easily amused, she can use anything to ease boredom. She draws often, especially during class, but this doesn't mean she's not listening. She is also totally addicted to ice cream. xD Player: advent_of_apocalypse Name: Just Real Name: Jacob Prower Gender: Male Age: 17 Appearance: Moderate-length brown hair, 5'11", moderate build, typically wears at least one headphone. Back story: He never much liked socializing in his old school, but at L's Academy, he can more easily socialize because of the presence of others of his intelligence. He has a serious personality when he is working, and occasionally when he isn't. He is almost constantly listening to music mainly because it stimulates his mind. He is extremely interested in the supernatural, yet somewhat skeptical to believe in it. There, now to wait for more canon characters... :S
Ok, before this starts, the latest cast list. Light: Repliku L: ICSP Ryuk: Paladin12345678 (me!) Light's first kill: Redsonic Light's second kill: Xendran (sorry, first name I thought of) Soichiro Yagami (Neku) Touta Matsuda (Pika_Power) Ukita (Soranspartanti) Misa Amane (CTR) Rem (DPWolf) Near (ILoveRiku) Mello (Absol) Teru Mikami (Pyro) Aizawa (TheDarknessGrowsWithin) Mogi (Daxma) Watari ( TwilightNight) Raye Penbar (Firekeyblade) Naomi Misoura (Amber) I sat in an empty realm. It was bleak and desolate, as if all life had ended. Both sky and earth were a uniform ash-gray colour. It was as if Armageddon had come. I was sitting on the edge of a cliff, the precipice leaning over a seemingly bottomless chasm. Behind me two other creatures played dice. “Paladin, why don’t you play with us?” one of them asked. “Nah, I think I’ll pass,” I replied. I was deep in thought. There was a very interesting person IRL… XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX “Repliku, you still with us?” the teacher asked. Repliku let out a startled gasp, jerked from his almost-sleep. The teacher noticed this and sighed. “Do you mind translating this passage into English, ignoring how it quite obviously foreshadows coming events?” the teacher asked. Repliku stood up. The teacher was always as little bit weird. He kept thinking that he was part of an anime or something. Sometimes he’d look at Repliku and mutter, “That kid needs some Prozac before he goes in his killing spree.” Repliku sighed and translated, “Follow the teachings of God and receive his blessings. So it shall be, and the seas shall become bountiful, and the raging storms shall subside.” After a short time-lapse of somewhere between a few minutes or a few hours, Repliku was walking home. He was reading a book, which is a pretty strange thing to do if you’re walking through a heavily-populated city. Then again, the streets were pretty much deserted. Repliku remembered when he had asked his teacher about the odd lack of pedestrians. “It’s to save time. They can’t have the art staff wasting time drawing so many extra people,” he had answered with a sage-like nod. Repliku had slowly backed out of the classroom. Repliku grumbled and swatted his ears with the book he was holding. For some reason he was picking up depressing radio broadcasts about murders and suchlike. As Repliku stopped at a crossing, his book mysteriously disappearing and more people magically appearing, he decided to think very loudly. Day in, day out, it’s always the same news, Repliku thought. How ridiculous, I thought. More importantly, though, Repliku continued. How can I finish someone’s mental sentences? I finished. There was another mysterious time-lapse as Repliku once again found himself at school, this time wearing a snazzy brown jacket over his shirt and tie. He knew he made the school uniform look good. But where the hell did my book go, I was reading that! Repliku wondered angrily, And more to the point, why the hell do I have those weird time-lapses? Of course, this chain of thought broke off as Repliku spotted a threatening black notebook materialize out of thin air and slowly float to the ground. Repliku raised an eyebrow, both at the slow descent and the materialization. The book fell into the light and Repliku was somehow able to read the title from all the way up from his classroom; Kh-vids.DeathNote. Another annoying time-lapse and Repliku was down in the school grounds, approaching the notebook. He picked it up and read the title again. Kh-vids.DeathNote? Like, a Note of Death… connected to Kh-vids.net? Repliku thought. He opened the notebook. Oh that’s thoughtful, Repliku thought, Someone wrote instructions for a deadly weapon. Let’s see here… The human whose Kh-vids.net username is written here… shall die? Repliku dropped the notebook. Yeah, right. That’s just weird… and emo… It’s like one of those annoying chain letters on YouTube. Damn those gullible- Repliku’s thoughts were cut off by another time lapse. This one dropped him off right in front of a train as it hurtled by, causing Repliku to jump in shock. Damnit time lapses are annoying! he grumbled inwardly. He noticed the top of the Note protruding from his bag. How the hell did that get in there? Whatever, it’s not like I want to kill Kh-vids.net users anyway… There was another time lapse. “GOD FREAKING DAMNIT!” Repliku vocalized his stress. He was sitting at his desk with the Note opened in front of him. Repliku grumbled, rubbing the bridge of his nose, and read. “Details of the death must be written within forty seconds of writing the person’s username, otherwise they will simply die of a heart attack…” Repliku read, “The user then has six minutes and forty seconds to write the cause of death. So… they can either die easily or painfully? This is… really emo.” Repliku flopped down on his bed, “So I write a username and someone dies?” Repliku leaped from the bed and sat down on the desk. He drew a pen from his pen pot and set it against the page. As he did so, he made sure to cram as much awesome and drama into these moves as he could. Still got it, Repliku thought. His pen froze on the page. “Wait, on the offchance this thing works, would that make me a murderer?” Repliku wondered. Moral dilemmas are fun. Repliku turned on his computer and clicked on to Kh-vids.net. Once there he discovered that Redsonic had posted yet another Riku code. The post was dated very recently. Repliku clutched his pen tightly in anger. He wrote. Redsonic. Repliku dropped his pen and sat back in his swivel chair. A heart attack in forty seconds? We’ll see. Forty seconds passed. If there was supposed to be some sort of supernatural sign, it didn’t show. Repliku snorted. “I should’ve known it would be a no-show.” Repliku swivelled his chair and rolled across his bedroom floor towards the TV. He switched it on and rolled a comfortable distance back. It was the news. “This just in,” the newscaster reported, “A young man was found dead in his apartment today. He was discovered by his roommate dead at the keys of his computer minutes ago. -“ The camera was inside the person’s room. The dead body was slumped against his desk, hands still splayed across the keyboard. The glowing computer screen showed the site Kh-vids.net. The username was Redsonic. Repliku’s stomach froze and beads of sweat rolled down his face. His eyes were wide in horror. He almost fell off his wheelie chair. The newscaster continued, oblivious to the young man’s horror. “Despite being quite healthy, it appears the heart attack struck him dead in a matter of seconds. Doctors are baffled-“ Repliku switched the TV off. He stood from his chair. “Coincidence…” Repliku stammered, “It has to be a coincidence!” It was as if he was trying to convince the TV that what it had just reported was wrong. Repliku stared at the Note. Redsonic’s username sat there, the black ink like blood. Repliku closed the Note. “Son, it’s 6:30, don’t you have schoolwork to do?” Repliku’s mother called up the stairs. “Y-yeah! I’ll get to it!” Repliku answered, forcing his voice to stay calm. He grabbed the Note. For some reason, my feelings of horror are now being overwhelmed by an odd need to test a weapon of deadly power on another person. Man, do they sell drugs for bipolar people? Repliku thought. His mood swung yet again to discover that while he had been thinking, a time lapse had snuck up on him. He was now sitting once again in class, this time wearing a fuzzy green jumper. To his right, an ugly kid in a black hoodie was harassing a nerdy kid for twenty dollars. Repliku knew the dude’s username. Maybe he could kill him. So now I think about killing someone who I barely know, and has done nothing more than bullied some kids? Man, there’s something wrong with me, Repliku thought. There was another time lapse. It was now night time, the end of school. Repliku was outside, walking away. The same nerd from before was arguing with two others about whether Xbox360, PS3 or Wii was better. Once you look around, you really wonder whether you’d be doing society a favour by getting rid of these people, Repliku thought. Ahead of him, a teenage girl was walking home. A man on a motorcycle raced past her. “Hello hottie!” he called. He swerved the bike in front of her. His friend cut the girl off from behind with his motorbike. “Whoah, you really picked a hottie this time!” the man’s friend praised. The man took off his sunglasses, “Hey hot stuff, need a ride?” Repliku noticed this event as he walked into the service station to get his weekly overdose of Skittles. He loved to Taste the Rainbow. He narrowed his eyes. “Do I know you?” the girl asked. “I believe we met on the Internet,” the man continued, “Does the username Xendran ring a bell?” He chuckled and both he and his gang advanced on the girl. “Someone!” The girl called, “Please, help me!” Repliku glared out at the scene from within the fluoro-lit interior of the service station. The Note was open. Xendran. Now, what will happen? Repliku wondered. The girl ran. She raced away from the brutish man and across the road. Xendran mounted his motorbike and chased after her. “Xendran, look out!” One of his gang yelled. He was too late. The truck that came careering out of nowhere smashed head-on into Xendran’s bike, leaving nothing but twisted metal left. The girl continued running until she was out of sight. Repliku’s eyes widened. This settles it. This Note… it’s for real… XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX “It’s been five days so… I’d better get going…” I muttered to myself. “Hmmm?” a creature asked, “You going somewhere Paladin?” “Hate to tell you,” its friend continued, “But our whole world looks like this.” “That’s true, but I dropped my Note,” I told them. Both creatures laughed uproariously. “Looks like you really screwed up this time,” laughed the first creature. “But wait a sec,” the second asked, “Didn’t you already trick the old fart into giving you a second Note? Don’t tell me you lost both of them!” “You must have some idea where you dropped the thing!” the first insisted. “Yeah…” I said, walking up to another precipice. White light poured from down below, a winding staircase leading down into a whirling bowl of light. “The human world.” I jumped. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Repliku walked into his house, soaked through from the rain. His mother was waiting for him and almost had to beat his exam results out of him. Repliku handed her the results and took off. His mother was about to talk to him when she discovered that her son had once again been an antisocial arse and run up to his room. “Don’t you want anything to eat? I can get you anything,” his mother called up. “It’s ok. I’ll take a potato chip…” Repliku paused, “And EAT IT!” He closed the door. Below, his mother had an eyebrow raised at the odd emphasis on eating chips. Repliku sat down at his desk. He opened the Note. Rows of usernames had been etched into the notebook’s pages. Repliku flicked through the pages. He slowly began to laugh. He knew that it was going to be one of his insane laughs, ones that lasted a few minutes at a time. It sounded weird as well, as if he was running out of breath. “I see you like my notebook,” I said. Repliku turned and saw me staring out at him from the darkness of his room. Lightning flashed. “OMFG!” Repliku screamed, falling from his chair. He bashed his head against the wall as he fell. He looked up at me. Of course, if he was expecting something else, he was to be disappointed. I was just my Kh-vids avatar. I held my Fork of Truth in my hand. “Sup,” I said, waving, “Judging by your lol, you’ve worked out how to work it… either that or you were choking to death, it’s kinda hard to tell.” “Don’t knock the lol!” Repliku snapped. “Y’know,” I said, sitting down on his bed, “I was going to launch into a lot of expositional talk with you, but I can’t be arsed to now that I’m here. How about I just explain everything to you between chapters?” “Between… what?” Repliku was confused. “Ah, screw it,” I dismissed, “The name’s Paladin by the way.” “Hey, son?” Repliku’s mother knocked on the door, “Are you having expositional dialogue with otherworldly beings in your room again?” “Answer it you antisocial noob,” I prodded Repliku. “Bite me Paladin,” Repliku snapped, answering the door. “I thought you might like some cookies,” Repliku’s mother said, offering the basket. “Kookies!?” I muttered, my eyes fixed on the basket. Repliku took the basket and set it on the desk. His mother walked off and Repliku shut the door. “She couldn’t see you?” He asked. “My Note is connected to Kh-vids.net, and you as well. Since you possess the Note, only you can see or hear me. Plus, only people with accounts on Kh-vids.net can possess the Note, and by extension, know of my existence.” “… What?” Repliku asked. “It’s a whole lot of 4th Wall-breaking nonsense, just ignore it,” I waved the question aside, “Anyway, you have the Note now, you can’t go to an afterlife, you were an accident and nobody likes you.” “Yeah well, I don’t care,” Repliku brushed me off, “I’m going to clean up the world one name at a time! Soon, only people who are hardworking and honest will remain! Cue montage!” At that, we were whisked back in time to the period before I met him. He was writing in the notebook frantically, his radio blaring out the Kira Theme next to him. Every now and then another person would keel over dead, accompanied by a sparkly swipe of Repliku’s pen. Back in the present, somehow our conversation had gone on until sunrise. “And I… I WILL BE THE GOD OF THIS NEW WORLD… forum,” Repliku exclaimed triumphantly. “… You’re freaking insane, buddy,” I said with no possibility for understatement. “Yeah well, I hate you.” “Likewise, buddy.” XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX You know, while I wrote this I had no idea whether I was writing it as a comedy or serious. It ended up being a weird mixture of both. I was watching the actual episode as I wrote this, and at some points I copied the dialog word for word. I realized this wouldn't work and so brutally abridged Light and Ryuk's first encounter. I swear to myself that I will try and write one chapter per episode. Don't worry ICSP, your turn shall come soon! Ok, could anyone PM me a summary of Death Note by episode? That way I don't have to overtax my already-strained bandwidth. Death Note doesn't air in Australia. There might be some tasty, sparkly rep in it for you!
I was thinking today, along the lines of Kingdom Hearts, and I had a strange through. Just where the hell did the Oathkeeper Keyblade originate from? The answer was right in front of me. Kairi made it! Now hold up just a second, you say, Kairi made it? As you can recall, the keychain of the Oathkeeper is the Thalassa Shell charm that Kairi made. You can actually see her sewing it up in KH1 and the opening of KH2. Now just think about it for a second. Kairi, a girl of fourteen, managed to unlock a new form of the Keyblade with arts and crafts. Now it may be a stretch, but I believe this may be connected to her flowery Keyblade, given to her by Riku. Maybe Riku found some way to make a Keyblade just like she did. Remember the Birth By Sleep promo stuff, involving 'Chasers'? One of the dictionary definitions is 'one who works metal'. Does this mean that Chasers are the ones that made the Keyblades? If so, then that means that Kairi is a Chaser! Maybe back in Birth By Sleep, the seven Princesses of Heart created the Keyblades? Your thoughts?
(Before the start, this is a sequel to my story Guy Love. Read it for a little continuity, but it isn't compulsory. Cookie for whoever can guess the people who own the Kingdom Messenger accounts) Axel was sprawled across Roxas' couch, hands folded behind his head and smiling. Roxas was slightly irritated that Axel always crashed his room, but let it slide. Roxas was flying high after Axel and he had stood before thousands of fangirls and sung about how they cared about each other, without 'loving' each other. The AkuRoku fangirls had been so impressed that they had simply left. On a side note, the full song was on YouTube under the user SavageNymph. "That was awesome, Axel!" Roxas commented, still scarcely believing it. "True, Roxas. By the way, that 'Flaming Bear' nickname isn't going to stick, is it?" No answer, "Roxas?" Again no answer. Axel looked over the back of the couch. Roxas was sitting at his computer. He had one tab open on FanFiction.net and one on deviantART. The Flurry of Dancing Flames stood and walked over to Roxas, looking over his shoulder. On the screen, both FanFiction.net and deviantART, were yaoi pieces. SoraxRiku, Zemyx, Mansax, you name it, it was there. "What's up?" "I feel really bad for 'em," Roxas answered, "We were so focused on how fangirls treat us, we completely forgot about everyone else. I mean, just look at SoraxRiku! I mean, I don't like Riku, but not THAT much." Roxas returned to the deviantART tab, but quickly exited as he saw a steamy yaoi of Sora and Riku. "So, were you planning anything?" Axel asked, "You looked like you were thinking. And coming from Sora's Nobody, that's a bit shocking." The Oblivion keyblade spun out of nowhere. Axel narrowly ducked the weapon as it clattered across the floor, disappearing soon after. "Hahaha Flaming Bear," Roxas replied sacrasticly, "I mean, look at what our song did for the AkuRoku fangirls! We shouldn't just sit by and watch this happen!" "What, teach every pairing the song?" Axel asked, every the cynical half of the friendship. "No, that's not going far enough," Roxas brought up Kingdom Messager and selected a new message, "Song worked for us, we can make it bigger to help the others." Roxas said as he linked the message to be sent to KeyMaster, PrincessofHeart, TheTwilightBlade, EternalNothingness, SailorMoon, SurferBoy, Academic13 and MonaLisa. "Roxas..." Axel trailed off, reading the message Roxas was writing. Kingdom Hearts Concert: It Takes Two Characters, are you tired of being yaoi paired with other characters? Want the fangirls to leave you alone? join Roxas and Axel in The World That Never Was in preperation for KH: It Takes Two. Bring along your female pairing, your yaoi pairing, or sing solo a song of your choice. The concert will be used to raise awareness for yaoi and send a plea for respite. Feel free to bring along any other characters that you know to help out! Roxas clicked, and almost seconds later all eight characters recieved the fateful e-mail, starting a chain that would unfold into the epic story that is Kingdom Hearts: It Takes Two. OoC: Right. The concert will start in a few chapters. Before then, you can submit song requests for characters or pairs of characters, and possibly see them in the fic! The only taken characters are Axel - Burn Baby Burn, Roxas - Beautiful Soul, Sora & Kairi - Bring Me To Life and Namine, who won't be taking part in the concert.
Guy Love, born in a single writing frenzy and my love of Scrubs! A typical day in the World That Never Was. At least, it should have been. On this day, when the Organization should have been collecting hearts, they were forced to stay in the castle, as if in siege, by legions of fangirls. Saix, the only one of them scary enough to pass the throngs of fangirls, had brought them news that turned the situation from bad to worse. They were AkuRoku fangirls. “As we all know,” Xemnas addressed the Organization in Where Nothing Gathers, “The Castle is under siege by AkuRoku fangirls. Attempts to reason with them have so far been met with violence (at this Demyx rubbed several ‘diplomacy’ wounds) and all Nobodies sent to dispose of them have been melted by their steamy AkuRoky yaoi pics.” The Superior glanced around the thirteen chairs, “Where the hell are Axel and Roxas anyway?” “Last I saw them they were meeting up in Roxas’ room,” Zexion said. At once, all of the Organization cringed as the same thought ran through their heads simultaneously. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX “What the hell’re we gonna do, Roxas?” Axel asked desperately, looking out the window where fangirls were trying with a variable degree of success to bridge the Castle’s deep defences with a bridge of bodies. Axel opened the window. “GET OUTTA HERE YA LAZY BUMS!” he yelled, throwing a chakram. The spinning weapon cut one of the fangirls in half. “EBAY!” she screamed, her upper half clasping the offending weapon before she died. Instead of releasing a heart, she just disintegrated. “Oh great,” Axel said, closing the window, “They’re the extra-rabid version. No hearts or souls, even less than Nobodies.” “Why do they keep thinking that we’re gay for each other?” Roxas exclaimed hysterically, “I mean, for starters, I’m fifteen and you’re like 20! Do they think that you’re a paedophile?” “Roxas, you don’t understand fangirls,” Axel replied, “they don’t understand logic. They just pull stuff out of thin air and promote it to kingdom come.” There was a long silence as both Nobodies thought. “It isn’t entirely out of thin air, though,” Roxas said, breaking the silence, “I mean, its easy to misinterpret our feelings for each other.” “I dunno Roxas,” Axel said, staring back out at the fangirl horde, “I mean, the only other pairing involving me is Larxel, and to be honest, that chick scares me.” Axel turned back to Roxas, “I mean, you have Namine as a canon pairing!” Axel stopped and held his chin in a thinking posture, “Which makes the AkuRoku pairing altogether more implausible.” “You said it yourself Axel,” Roxas said sadly, “They don’t understand logic.” A swirling dark portal appeared in the centre of the room. Out stepped the most frightening Organization member ever imagined. Axel felt a bead of sweat roll down his face and Roxas shivered. “GET THE PH OVER TO THE MEETING ROOM!” Larxene screeched. Both cowering Nobodies immediately disappeared into portals. Larxene stayed in the room alone for a moment, chuckling at the other member’s fear. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Roxas and Axel appeared in Where Nothing Gathers, both of them immediately felt the full force of the Organization’s disdain. “Roxas, Axel,” Xemnas commanded, “Explain yourselves!” “Superior, we haven’t actually done anything to deserve this!” Axel exclaimed, “The fangirls simply misinterpreted our feelings for each other!” “I will not have fangirls crowding my world,” Xemnas replied, “I will contact the leader of these fangirls, and arrange a meeting. At that meeting, the both of you will give a speech that will explain everything to these AkuRoku fangirls.” “But sir, they can’t understand civilized speech! They’ll just glomp us at first sight!” Roxas interjected. “That is your problem to sort out!” Xemnas dismissed, “This whole situation is your fault! Now go, and we will see what can be done.” Roxas summoned a portal back to his room, and so did Axel. “We’ll do what we can,” Axel said as he disappeared, “… Mansex.” “I HEARD THAT!” XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Roxas and Axel sat in the room, Kingdom Hearts shining dully in the sky. Both Nobodies, despite their supposed lack of emotions, were depressed. “How are we supposed to do this?” Roxas broke first, “The task is nothing short of impossible!” “Roxas,” Axel said, “I say we kick back, enjoy our last moments and just wing it on the day.” At this, the flame-haired Flurry of Dancing Flames kicked back on Roxas’ sofa and turned on the TV. “Wait, you’re just going to lie down and accept this? What about all that stuff about you caring about me?” Roxas exclaimed. “They’d just misinterpret it,” Axel said off-hand, “Face it, we’re boned.” Roxas sighed and slumped down on the couch beside Axel, depressed. They watched the sitcom on TV blankly, not connecting with it at all. It seemed like some sort of musical. On the sitcom, the two male main characters began to sing. The subject of the song hit home with them both, and the lyrics became indelibly planted in their brains. In that instant, both Nobody’s faces lit up as they each had the exact same idea. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Xemnas had set up a makeshift stage just at The Brink of Despair, within sight of the castle. Hordes of fangirls jostled for space, holding up poorly-written banners proclaiming their AkuRoku love. Xemnas frowned. “Where are those two?” He wondered, checking the watch that he had pulled out of hammerspace. As if on cue, two dark portals appeared, and everyone’s favourite Nobodies stepped out. In this instant, every fangirl went completely berserk. It took the combined powers of the Organization to create a barrier strong enough to repel them. Roxas and Axel stared out at the crowd. “Stage fright?” Axel whispered out of the corner of his mouth. “Yeah. You ready?” Roxas replied. “As always, partner.” “Fangirls!” Xemnas proclaimed, “I bring you your idols! As you all as witnesses, they will account for their actions! How you judge them is up to you.” Roxas and Axel stepped up to the two microphone stands. The rest of the Organization sat in a specially-prepared stand. Larxene held a bucket of popcorn and Zexion sucked noisily on a Coke. Roxas nodded to Axel, and they both pulled the microphones out of their housing. “Let’s face the facts about me and you,” Roxas sang, as the fangirls watched with rapt attention, “A love unspecified.” Roxas clapped Axel on the shoulder, “Though I’m proud to call you Flaming Bear, the crowd will always talk and staaare!” Axel chuckled and knocked Roxas’ arm off, “I feel exactly those feelings too, and that’s why I keep them insiiide, ‘cause this Bear can’t Bear the world’s disdain, and sometime’s it’s easier to hiiiide,” Both Nobodies spun to face the crowd. “Than explain our Guy Love, that’s All it is, it’s Guy Love, he’s Mine I’m His. There’s NOTHING gay about it in our eeeeyes.” Roxas smiled and stepped back to let Axel take the stage. “You ask me ‘bout this Thing we share,”Axel sang. “And he tenderly repliiiiiiiiies,” Roxas hopped back in. “It’s Guy Love!” Axel added. “Between two guuuuuuyes,” The Nobodies harmonised. Roxas stepped to the side as Axel advanced to the front of the stage. “We’re closer than the aaaverage man and wife,” Flaming Bear sang. “That’s why our matching bracelets say Roxas and Axel!" Roxas added, and both Nobodies rolled up their sleeves to reveal said bracelets. Axel turned to face Roxas. “You know I’ll stick by you for the rest of my life!” he sang. “You’re the only guy who’s ever been insiiide of me!” Axel paled at this line and quickly assured the crowd, “He accidentally swallowed the free toy in a bag of chips.” “There’s no need to clarifyyy,” Roxas continued as Axel sang; “Oh no.” “Just let it grow more and more each daaaay! It’s like I’m married to by best friend.” “But in a totally manly way!” Axel added. “Let’s go!” they harmonised, “it’s Guy Love, don’t Compromise the Feeling of some Other guy, holding up your heart into the skyyyyyy.” Both Nobodies released a heart into the sky to punctuate. “I’ll be there to care through all the lows," Roxas sang to Axel. “I’ll be there to share the hiiiiiiighs!” Axel replied. “It’s Guy Love between two Guys!” The two Nobodies chorused, smiling at each other. “And when I say; ‘I love you Axel’,” Roxas sang, “It’s not what it impliiiiiiiies.” “It’s Guy Love… between… two… guuuuuuuuys.” They finished softly in harmony. The AkuRoku fangirls were completely stunned. Axel held out his hand to Roxas. “No hands, Flaming Bear,” Roxas grinned, and hugged Axel. The AkuRoku fangirls all gave out a thunderous, “Awwwwwwwww.” Roxas and Axel broke apart and waved to the fangirls before disappearing into darkness portals. The fangirls squealed and departed, now carrying a precious memory of Roxas and Axel. Xemnas was completely stunned, and was blinking quite rapidly. “What the hell was that?” Xemnas finally asked. “No idea,” Larxene said, holding up her video camera and smiling evilly, “But it’s going on YouTube!”
Rated PG-13 for blood and infrequent coarse language. Prologue from the place opposite where god lives :) The ship lazily drifted across the vast space filled with bright stars, each one signifying hundreds of lives. "It's so beautiful." Kairi said in awe, her nose pressed flat on the glass of the cockpit. "Yeah, to think this might have all been lost." Sora agreed, swinging on the swivel chair up front. Riku leaned back on his, feet up on the pilot console, "Sora, you are meant to be driving this thing, right?" Riku and Kairi laughed as Sora's eyes opened wide and he jolted to the controls as if he just had a siezure. He quickly scanned the console to see the green Autopilot symbol lit up. He glared daggers at the chuckling Riku. "Your face..." Riku trailed off and Sora turned off the autopilot, grumbling under his breath. He turned the ship to the right, but froze when it moved left. "Uh, is the autopilot still on?" Sora asked. "You just turned it off." Riku confirmed. Kairi stared out to the ship's destination. "Look!" The two teenagers leapt from their seats and pressed their faces to the glass. They were headed to a new world. It wasn't a world they'd ever seen before. The world at first seemed entirely water, which prompted Sora to think of Atlantica or Neverland, but soon an island came into view. At one end was a port town, with some sort of path winding up to a castle in snowy mountaintops, a lush green jungle and a threatening stone fortress. The ship picked up speed and Kairi hastily buckled herself in. "This is going to be a bumpy landing!" Sora called as he and Riku strapped themselves in. There was heat, a flash of light, and darkness. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Nero sprinted through the streets of Fortuna town, his unbound left arm pumping. He slowed and stopped as he spotted the opera house and panted for breath. As he pondered whether the recital had started yet, a cloud of darkness sped along at ground level and filled a heap of sacks on the road in front of him. Nero wacthed with cool detatchment as a crowd of Scarecrows formed in front of him. He looked puzzled as a cloud of darkness denser and blacker than the rest formed in front of him. It wasn't possessing a sack, like a regular Scarecrow. It was a Scarecrow with black skin and luminous yellow eyes. It carried two curved black blades and bore a strange symbol on its chest. it looked like a heart sectioned into quarters by thorns. Nero sprinted at the new demon and leapt, his boot slamming into its face and knocking it through the crowd of scarecrows. He dodged a scything blade and ripped the offending weapon from the possessed sack that housed it. Nero sliced through the scarecrows like butter until all that remained was the new black Scarecrow. Nero narrowed his eyes and stared down the demon. "If you'll excuse me, I'm late for an appointment." Nero threw down the unwieldy executioner's blade he'd stolen and shot the demon through the head with Blue Rose. The dual 45. bullets ripped its head to shreds. Nero set off running again, not noticing the crystalized, rose-coloured heart float into the air and dissipate. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Sora came to his senses, the darkness in his vision retreating. He was in the wreckage of the ship, torn from his seat and flung away, luckily not hitting the windshield. He stood and scanned the crash site. He sighed in relief as he spotted the soot-and-grime-stained Riku help Kairi to her feet. "Well guys, I guess our little holiday took an unexpected turn." Sora laced his fingers together behind his head, as was his habit. "Let's look around, try and find some people. We'll see what's wrong with this world and hopefully get our ship fixed." Kairi suddenly turned and looked up, "Hey, look!" The trio looked and spotted a rose-coloured heart dissipate. "Heartless!" Sora said, always jumping on a chance to state the obvious. "Looks like someone here knows how to fight." remarked Riku, stating the slightly-less-obvious. The three set off to where the heart had flown up, and saw a blue figure enter the huge, ornate building in the distance. "I recognize that smell," Riku muttered so no one could hear him, "Like darkness. But different. It's that guy who killed the heartless." XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Nero sat back on the bench, headphones around his neck. Kyrie sat next to him and kept glancing away from the preaching Sanctus to the long, thin, blue package she held. The fact that Nero was studiously ignoring it only affirmed her belief that it was from him. "Now, let us pray." finished Sanctus and clasped his hands. Every hooded figure in the opera house clasped their hands and bowed their heads. All, that is, save Nero, Kyrie's brother Credo and the knights that lined the walls of the grand room. Nero stood up. "Nero, it's not over yet." Kyrie insisted, pulling his pant leg. Credo glared in Nero's direction. "All this preaching's putting me to sleep." Nero countered, turning to leave. As Kyrie stood to persuade him further, Nero froze. Beneath the cloth of the sling, his right arm glowed. He and Kyrie looked to the skylight just as three teenagers burst in through the doors. A silver'haired man in a red leather coat fell through the air and landed crouched on Sanctus' podium amid falling glass shards. The huge sword on his back gleamed in the sunlight. There was a second of utter stillness as he looked up into Sanctus' eyes. And shot him. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX The three teenagers watched in frozen horror as the man stood slowly, glancing up at the massive, sword-wielding statue behind Sanctus and turned. There was a spray of blood on his cheek. "Your Holiness!" Yelled Credo. He drew his sword and the ringing of a dozen others followed closely. The knights charged the man in red and he drew his sword. The crowd of people who had been seated on the benches began screaming and raced for the exits. Nero grabbed Kyrie's hand and pulled her away. Kyrie looked back as the package fell from her hands and was trodden on by a fleeing churchgoer. Nero could only watch helplessly as the man in red decimated the knights, moving with fluid grace beyond that of a human. Kyrie squeezed her eyes shut as the man in red impaled a knight and beat three others with the unfortunate knight still on the blade. Credo crouched at tjhe body of Sanctus. "No!" the wound was deep. The bullet had gone straight through. Kyrie broke out of Nero's grip and raced to Credo. The body of a knight glanced her shoulder and she slammed into the hard marble floor. She looked up in fear to see the backlit assassin staring over her, sword on shoulder. Nero growled and sprinted at the man. He looked just in time to see both of Nero's feet slam into his face and throw him into the air. Nero fell to the ground and drew Blue Rose. he fired, and the man blocked both bullets with his sword blade. The extra force from the bullets propelled the man onto the head of the statue. He stabbed his sword into the statue's forehead and propped himself up on it. Nero leapt into the air and his leg stabbed into the swords' hilt just as the man began to pull it out. It was shoved deeper into the stone and the man jumped off. He landed on the statue's right arm and aimed his guns just as Nero landed on the left arm with Blue Rose's barrell staring the man in the face. "Kyrie! Go with your brother and get outta here!" Nero called. Cred backed towards the door, keeping Kyrie back with an arm, "I will return with help! You stall him until then!" He left. Nero scoffed, "I won't hold my breath." in a quick movement, his headphones where thrown from his neck and onto the ground. He fired at the man's head. The man ducked and nero fired again. The bullets smashed into the stone where the man had been. The assassin was now airborne and falling towards Nero. Nero jumped as well and trapped the assassin's torso with his legs. As the pair fell they fired at each other, neither one hitting the other. The assassin kicked Nero away. Nero growled and flung the assassin into the statue. The man in red landed on his trapped sword and looked up as Nero descended down on him. Nero's foot smashed into the sword's handle and tore it out of the statue. Nero landed with one foot on the statue's neck and one on its clasped hands. the assassin caught the sword in mid-air and slashed down. Nero deflected the stroke with his revolver, but the force send him rolling down the statue. Nero forced himself to stop by bracing himself against the statue's sword. He fired upwards and the dual rounds smashed the statue's nose off as the assassin hopped onto the statue's clasped hands. Nero growled and pushed with both legs. The man stood noncholantly as the sword was ripped from the statue's hands and began to descend. Nero sprinted up the sword and fired at almost point-blank range at the assassin's face. He swayed aside and Nero fired again. The man kicked out and they flew off in opposite directions. The sword clanged to the ground, straight towards the trio. Regaining his presence of mind, Sora cast Reflega. The sword hit the geometric shield and slid to the floor unbroken. Nero didn't notice, "You've got a jacked-up notion of fair play, pal," he said venemously, Blue Rose aiming at the assassin, "and it's beginning to piss me off." So, whadda ya think? Keyblade involvement is pretty low at this point, but I'll try harder in a later chapter.
Hello. Through these forums and the Internet at large I have seen many strange and wonderous things, but one thing that has been niggling away at the back of my head is Yaoi. To me, it just doesn't make sense. As far as my knowledge goes, Yaoi is pairing two characters of the same sex in fanfiction, however that may be Yuri, so don't flame me. Now, I would like to know something. Please all Yaoi and Yuri fans, come to this thread and answer me this. Why do you like it? Please explain why you would want to pair two male or female characters together, straight or no. I just don't understand. Now, if you post here, you must not flame. Flaming, like yelling in ALL CAPS that YAOI SUCKS or that YAOI RULES will be spam. I would just like to have Yaoi explained to me. I mean, personally, Yaoi makes my skin crawl. My view was perfectly summed up in a video on YouTube, you may have seen it. It's of Vic Mignogna (sp?) - of Fullmetal Alchemist fame - saying how he felt about Yaoi. "To me, Yaoi is like drawing this beautiful picture that took you hours to make, and suddenly someone comes up and draws all over it with a crayon." That is seriously what he said. This thread is my final stand. I have been passive-aggressively hating Yaoi for a long time, now I just want to come out and declare what I think, so others may come. I'm interested to see what you use to justify liking Yaoi. And please, don't takw that in an aggresive way. I seriously have no idea why someone would like it.
