Hey, I am Rebecca. I live with Organization XIII, but do not think ‘Why are there fourteen members?’ because I am not a member. I don’t really know why I am even here. Therefore, after three months living here, I have found out that life throws rather strange things at me. Just the other day, Axel was skipping, I mean with a skipping rope, and then Roxas dared Demyx to climb into the tumble dryer and he was stuck. Xemnas had kittens and yelled at Demyx. However, Demyx got out just before Xemnas knocked on the laundry room door. Then Naminé put her wet laundry in the dryer. Xemnas still found out and by his side was Saïx. Who saw and, while Laxene, Naminé and I were freaking out, he snitched.
Superior’s pet. I hate that person.
Yesterday, Xemnas called everyone down to the meeting room to talk. He ranted about we all sucked and said that the strongest person should train us. Axel, on who’s lap I was sitting on, (Naminé and I aren’t members and there are thirteen chairs, so Nami-chan and I sit on someone’s lap. Nami sits on Roxas’s lap and I sit on Axel’s) and I exchanged looks and mouthed ‘Saïx’. Xemnas made Axel and I fall of Axel’s chair, when he said, “Axel will be training you!” Axel’s chair is really high. So when we fell off, I screamed. Axel caught me and took the impact of the fall. I thought that was sweet. “WHAT?!” cried Axel, after we made sure that each other were okay. “I’M THE STRONGEST?” Xemnas nodded. “Training starts as soon as you get to the train grounds.” Then Xemnas and Saïx disappeared.
When we walking out to the training grounds, Axel and I were at the back of the group, I gave him a kiss on the cheek. “Wh-what was that for?” he asked. “That really sweet of you to save me.” I said. “Thanks” Axel gave me a small smile which surprised me. Axel normally smirks not smiles.
When we got to the training grounds. Axel got to the front of the group and told us to get in to a line, “Right!” He cried. “Nami, you can go to the side, you don’t need to train.”
“Ne, Axel, do I need to train?” I said. Axel nodded. Axel took of his cloak to expose a pair of back jeans and a black top. He took of the top as well. “Jeez, Axel,” Said Roxas, “think of the children!!” This meant me. “Ne, I’m the same age as you!!” I cried. (Just so, you know: ‘Ne!’ means ‘Hey!’)
“You're the saddest bunch I've ever met” sang Axel, quoting Mulan. Scarily he sounded just like Donny Osmond. “But you can bet before we're through: ‘Mister, I'll make a man out of you’” Axel pointed us towards the obstacle course, as he continued to sing: “Tranquil as a forest, but on fire within. Once you find your centre, you are sure to win. You're a spineless, pale, pathetic lot and you haven't got a clue. Somehow, I'll make a man out of you.”
“I'm never gonna catch my breath.” sang Demyx, swinging past.
“Say goodbye to those who knew me.” Sang Xigbar, as he jumped over a ditch of water
“Boy, was I a fool at school for cutting gym.” sang Luxord, panting.
“This guy's got 'em scared to death.” sang Naminé, watching us.
“Hope he doesn't see right through me.” I sang, looking at my top, hoping it wasn’t see-through.
“Now I really wish that I knew how to swim” cried Zexion, as his fingers slipped off the Monkey bars and he went plummeting towards pool of goodness knows what, but I caught his hand and helped him up.
“Be a man” we all sang
“We must be swift as the coursing river” Axel sang
“Be a man” we all sang
“With all the force of a great typhoon” Axel sang
“Be a man” we all sang
“With all the strength of a raging fire. Mysterious as the dark side of the moon” Axel sang
Axel saw Xemnas coming towards us
“Time is racing toward us ‘till Xemnas arrives.Heed my every order and you might survive.” *Or not.* I thought.
Just then, I slipped of the plank and went plummeting into a ditch of dirty water. Axel walked up to me and held out his hand. I took it and he hoisted me out of the water. Axel sang at me with anger in his eyes
“You're unsuited for the rage of war,So pack up, go home you're through. How could I make one of them out of you?” I looked rather upset and hurt. Axel’s expression softened and he gave me hug. This wasn’t clever, since I was wet.
“Be a man” we all sang
“We must be swift as the coursing river” Axel sang
“Be a man” we all sang
“With all the force of a great typhoon” Axel sang
“Be a man” we all sang
“With all the strength of a raging fire. Mysterious as the dark side of the moon” Axel sang
Everyone, (except for me) completed the obstacle course, and stood in number order in front of Naminé, Axel and I.
“Be a man” we all sang
“We must be swift as the coursing river” Axel sang
“Be a man” we all sang
“With all the force of a great typhoon” Axel sang
“Be a man” we all sang
“With all the strength of a raging fire.” I sang my heart out.
“Mysterious” Axel put hands on my waist and threw me up in the air “as the dark side” I did a flip and soared down. Axel caught me and placed me on his shoulder. “Of the moon!” Axel and I sang, as Xemnas and Saïx appeared. “Ahh Axel. Are you finished?” said Xemnas. Axel nodded. “Why is Rebecca on your shoulder?” said Saïx.
“She hurt herself,” said Axel “and she failed.” Xemnas nodded. “Never mind” he said. “She’s an ordinary girl.” Xemnas and Saïx disappeared. “Does that mean I suck?” I said. Axel placed me on the ground. “Nah.” Axel placed an arm around my shoulders. “You did rather well for ordinary person with no powers.” I grinned and wrapped my arms around his neck. Axel laughed and hugged me back.
“C’mon you two lovebirds,” said Luxord, “lunch. Axel, you’re NOT cooking!” We all laughed and made our way out to the castle.
I was right, life does throw rather strange things at me, but we all cope with it.
“Man I love it here!” I cried as Axel put an arm around my waist and I place an arm around his shoulders.
