[As far as Xion knows, it's a perfectly normal day. She's headed home in the evening after a long day in the library, studying any medical books she could get her hands on. She's even got a little notebook full of notes to show for her efforts, and she's proud of it, okay ( Read more... )

[What just happened?]

[He doesn't say anything. Not until he's heard the whole message.

And once he's heard it all...?]

It was him, wasn't it?

[ still hysterical, still crying, and still very, very angry. hearing Ven's voice does not make her happy. ]

Who, Vanitas? Yeah, it was him! And because of him, Axel is...! He's really badly hurt, and--

You sound like you were expecting it to be him! And if that's true, why aren't you doing something about it!?

If you want me to come over, I can! I knew Vanitas would try to hurt people, but I didn't think he'd go after Lea!

[Xion's not the only one who sounds angry, though.]

I guess I could go look for him, too. First thing's first, though; do you guys need a healer? I could use some cure magic if you do.

[All he heard was Xion screaming his name before he's getting up from his place out at the barracks and sprinting the fuck home.]

Xion! What's going on? What's wrong?

That boy...! With the helmet! Vanitas! He-- he was here! Axel is--

Just come home, please! I can't do this by myself... [ crying. yes. definitely. and very scared. ]

I'm going as fast as I can! [She can probably hear him running and panting as he sprints across the village, trying to make it back to KH house.]

Talk to me, Xion. What's wrong with Axel?

He's hurt. Really bad. This whole place is a mess...

[ her voice tapers off into a whisper. ]

There was a fight.

Xion-chan?! [Every hair on the back of her neck stands up. The bloody fuck is--]

[ there's silence for a minute or two, broken only by the sound of Xion crying and murmuring an indistinct word or two as she tries to keep Axel at least conscious. but she recognizes the voice coming out of Axel's journal, dimly, and turns her head to look at it. somewhat hollowly ]

Sanji... he got into our house. Our house. Can we even stay here anymore...?

[ it's obvious her thoughts are scattered, if that's the first thing she chooses to say. ]

[Sanji's never been so glad Xion's house is a skip and a jump to get to. She's already on her feet]

I'm coming over.

[Voice] poppetry January 6 2011, 04:09:49 UTC
... [ she doesn't reply. Sanji's allowed to come. Xion would never tell her no.

but she won't spend long away from Axel's side. ]

[At first he's merely embarrassed; that's right, he did forget his coat, didn't he? He'd forgotten he had-

But before he can apologize and head over while thinking that Guy will tease him without mercy, the commotion starts.]

Xion?!

[But his voice is lost in what's happening, and all Luke can do is grab his sword and listen as he does so, trying to figure out what's going on. It sounds like a friend of hers got attacked; the voice sounds distantly familiar, too. Once the sword is equipped, Luke grabs the journal to speak.]

Xion, what happened?!

[Voice] poppetry January 5 2011, 08:01:53 UTC
[ Roxas is on his way -- Axel's not dead --

But Xion can barely handle just on more thing on her radar. Even if that thing is Luke. All, all she wants is to wake up and for this to be a really bad dream. ]

... someone ... attacked -- [ her voice strains for a moment, and she pauses. ] My best friend... Axel, he-- he's really hurt. Don't -- don't come.

[Voice] cakeblocked January 6 2011, 03:05:57 UTC
Someone attacked him...? Who...

[She doesn't want him to come... But still. Luke can't just turn away from this. A dear friend is hurt emotionally and vulnerable, and who knows what would happen if the attacker came back?

No... Luke couldn't possibly allow that, even though she asked. Luke sounds a little calmer, though whether that's because he knows what's going on, Xion's doing the panicking for him, or he's simply resolved is up in the air.]

But what if that person came back? ... If I can't be there, then I'll stand guard outside.

[Luke knows he'd be useless otherwise; he can't heal, and he'd only get in the way. All he can do is fight and protect, huh...

Now isn't the time to think about that, though.]

Vanitas.

[ simply. she'll tell everyone who wants to know the boy's name, and even people who haven't asked. she wants everyone to know. she wants his name to be blackened.

there's a pause at his offer, though. she's still waiting -- for Roxas, for Axel to stop dying in her lap--

but-- ]

... if you want. [ her voice is barely above a whisper. she might at least look outside if he does come... but not much more than that. she won't want to leave Axel for more than a moment, if that. ]

[Well, that doesn't sound good]

You got everything under control, there?

[This reply isn't until a little while later, after Xion and Roxas have been casting some Curagas on him. He's still sounding weak, though.]

Mostly! Not dead yet, so that must count for something.

No deader then we already are, right?

[voice] flared January 6 2011, 03:56:32 UTC
Heh, exactly.

[He goes to chuckle but that's quickly cut off by a wince.]
