I saw this girl named Ayrax. I didn't know whether she hated me or not, but she only came to watch. Gamex smirked with her black eyes and went on to my body. She twisted my arms and legs.
"This is for stealing my life and my teacher!" Gamex yelled. I suddenly snapped.
"Your teacher, YOUR teacher?! Why you little, manipulative, b****!? He wasn't your's to begin with! Besides, you are the worse gambler I ever met!" I yelled.
"Bring it on, shorty!" Gamex said. THAT was the last straw! I closed my eyes and concentrated on the heat of my lava. Gamex let go of me and started coughing blood. She bleed on her nose, ears, and eyes. Before long, She lied down on the floor. Ayrax looked at me.
"The Hot Zone sickness is a disease that is mostly in Africa. In 48 hours, the victim's intestines boil and they bleed blood. Then they are dead. With the power of Earth Fire, I was able to give the disease to Gamex and she was dead in seconds." I said.
"Good plan. I'll go see if any other unwelcomed nobody's are here in the castle. You stay in your room." Ayrax left. I sighed and saw if Deidrex was fighting Hix well.
Someone please continue...

RaXi came up to the roof to see what I was up to. She felt bad for ordering me around I guess... She apologized and I accepted it. Really, what we needed was leaders here...I understood...even if it did upset me to just get ordered around so easily. I didn't exactly know WHAT to say to her...I was alone all the time...so I didn't have much practice when it came to "chatting".
I didn't have to worry about that for long. A huge disturbance shook the castle as a horde of nobodies invaded. "What the Hell?" I slipped. RaXi got ready to take off...yelling, "What's going on?" But I stopped her quickly.
"Hey...we have company." I warned her prepping my blade. They didn't come here to talk...that much I knew.
RaXi stood firm with her Great Sword out as well. We eyed our cloaked enemies. "Who are you?" RaXi called out. One stepped forward and removed his hood. I KNEW THAT FACE!!
"Long time no see Ximh..." He smirked. "You did keep that name didn't you? The name I gave you..."
My head hurt. One of my hands instinctively went up to my forehead as I tried to figure out just who this person was. He looked a lot like me. His hair standing up in similar sized spikes...yet he let two of his bangs stretch down. And the coloring was different. His hair was a frosty blue and had white tips...his bangs being that same ghostly white. And his eyes. They were a bright light blue...nearly white themselves and he gazed at me with them in an eerily familiar and vicious way.
"Who the hell are you?!" I demanded, pointing my Buster Sword at him.
"Aw...that hurts." He smirked putting his hand on his chest. "Too bad I don't have a heart...just now you'd have made me cry."
I knew he was being sarcastic...and it was beginning to piss me off. Suddenly I saw his face in what I could only describe as a "memory flash"...My eyes widened with shocked realization. "B...Brother?"
He smiled and without warning attacked me. I blocked his weapon...a huge hammer set on a spear like staff. And we sat in a stalemate...each trying to best the other with strength. I grunted as I tried to overpower him...no one could match me like this when it came to strength. But why had I called him 'Brother'? I had said it...but I hadn't the memories to go with that realization.
Out of the corner of my eye, I seen RaXi come towards me. As though she wanted to help. "STAY OUT OF THIS!!! HE IS MY OPPONENT!!!" I shouted at her. She froze in her steps and turned her attention to the other Cloaked person...who'd yet to make a move.
Ximh
I had stepped outside with RaXi for a moment with a rare urge to talk with someone. We chatted for a short while, and then she left to investigate a figure standing on the roof of the East tower. I sat by myself in the chilly night air, looking up at the full moon in the sky.
Finally, I stood to leave. My hand had barely graced the doorknob when a male voice behind me called out, “Please do not leave just yet.”
I spun around quickly, eying the sudden intruder. I stood warily as he spoke, all of my senses on high alert. There was something odd about the way his skin shimmered slightly under the moonlight, almost like he had…
Bowing politely to me, he said, “My name is Pashnirix. I understand that we are to engage in a fight to the death,” with a slight accent.
He had hair so pale it looked like bleached ice, worn in a ponytail that reached his waist, thrown over his right shoulder. His eyes were the same cold color, and he wore a smirk on his face. Strapped to his waist was a single scimitar. Like me, he wasn’t wearing his uniform coat, instead choosing to dress in a finely tailored black suit. This wasn’t some newbie Nobody, or some immature teenager. He had experience, both in life and with his powers.
“Who are you again?” I asked, not exactly understanding the part about ‘fight to the death’.
He laughed. “Ah, yes. I am part of the Organization, a much more advanced and powerful one that this measly get-together your leaders call an ‘organization’. We are here to eliminate you nuisances, and proceed with our plan of world domination, if you don’t mind.”
Oh. Well, then. It figured that sooner or later, a bunch of Nobodies would realize that we weren’t exactly the most organized Organization and try to eliminate us, but that didn’t mean we wouldn’t fight back. “Very well,” I said. “I assume you know the rules of a proper duel, then?”
“Of course, my lady,” he said. I wasn’t sure if he was mocking me or not. From his looks and aura, I would have said not. He held out his sword. “En garde.”
I let the chains around my hands lengthen until they covered my forearms, providing an arm guard. Then I moved in close to Pashnirix, and we circled for a bit.
He made the first move, reversing around to slash at my arm. My instinct kicked in and I caught the blade, roughly pushing it away from me. He lashed out again, and once again, I deflected him.
“Not bad,” he said pleasantly, “but let’s see how you handle this.” With that, he began a furious offensive, forcing me to quickly parry each of his blows and putting me on complete defense. Finally, I grabbed his blade with one hand and punched out with the other, grazing his cheek as he leaned away from my hit. I took the offensive then, throwing out a flurry of kicks and punches, each one blocked.
Then he snatched my wrist, holding me close to himself. I couldn’t help but bury my nose in his neck and smell him, and was surprised as he did the same.
“Your element,” he said roughly, “what is it?”
“I could ask the same of you,” I answered. He smelled of something exotic, something I’d never smelled before, yet it seemed familiar.
“Spirit of the Dragon,” he said abruptly, looking me in the eye.
I gasped. “What? I had heard that there were other Nobodies out there with powers like me, Animal Spirits…but I never believed it,” I said softly. “I’m the Tigress.” No wonder he smelled so good. This close, I could see the faint outline of tiny scales dotting his skin.
“I had heard the rumors as well,” said Pashnirix, “but I never realized…No matter.” He released me. “I suppose, then, you wouldn’t mind if I asked for a fight in our Final forms?”
I nodded my head. This was crazy. I hadn’t been this excited for a fight since…since Saix. Finally, a fight against a worthy opponent, one like myself.
I unclipped all of my chains, letting them fall to the floor. I had only used my Final form two other times, but in both fights, the results had been deadly. I didn’t know how I would fare against a Final form like mine, though. I removed my boots and rolled up my pants, and then took off my gloves. Standing with my eyes closed, I performed the hand motions that were ingrained in my heart, and whispered, “Spirit of the Tigress.”
I could feel the power coursing through my body until the transformation was complete, and I looked more tigress than woman. Claw scratched the ground as my feet morphed into paws, and the same for my hands. My teeth sharpened to the point where I could tear flesh from bones, and sensitive whiskers sprouted on my face. My cat ears twitched with every sound that passed by. A striped tail grew out at the base of my spine, flicking nervously from side to side.
Pashnirix looked on with something like amusement. “I’ll admit,” he said, taking off his shoes and jacket, “I’m nowhere near as subtle as you are with my transformation.” With that, he threw his scimitar high into the air and shouted, “Spirit of the Dragon!”
Immediately, his pupils became slitted, and two great wings emerged from his back. His hands and feet turned into scaly clawed talons, and horns grew at the top of his head. His teeth as well lengthened and sharpened, like mine. Finally, a long tail with an arrowhead tip snaked out and around his feet. His scimitar fell to a sudden stop just over his head, and separated into six different blades. I had a feeling that the weapon replication trait was common across all animal spirit Nobodies, and that he could replicate that blade as many times as necessary.
We stared at each other, both of us in a low crouch, waiting for the other to make the first move. I would fight as a tiger, not as a human. While he had the advantage of raw power, I had the advantage of speed. This would take all of my experience and instinct in order to win.
I set my eyes on his as we both whispered at the same time, “Hunt.”
------------------------------------
I'm not sure how long it'll be until I post the second part (I'll be at the inauguration this weekend ^_^), but I'll try to get it up as soon as possible.
KitKat: Oooooh, epic battle royale between the Tigress and the Dragon! I wonder who'll win...
Rexikat: *too busy trying not to get killed*
I talked to Ximh for a few minutes...and began to realize just what kind of person he was. Just looking into his eyes, I could tell he was similar to me...yet...very different as well. We didn't have too much more time. I had been about to leave anyway...when suddenly a huge influx of power came from the front gates. Several Nobody-type energy. Not only lesser-nobodies...but Human-form ones as well.
I turned to see from there. Surely they wouldn't waltz through the front gates...such confidence! I thought.
"What the Hell?" Ximh slipped. This was probably his first time feeling so many others like him gathered in one place. To be honest, it was a bit overwhelming. Like two waves poised and ready to collide full-force. Yet within an instant the energies separated and scattered...reappearing all over the castle.
"What's going on?!" I shouted, preparing to head to the front gates. Yet before I could even form my portal, two others appeared behind us and Ximh called out to me.
"Hold it!" He shouted. "We have company."
I stopped and turned around. Ximh already had his Buster sword poised and ready...and my Great Sword appeared in my hands as well. This presence was a hostile one.
"Who are you?" I asked. It was cliché...but an effective conversation starter none the less.
They stood there quietly. Finally one moved forward and removed his hood. Yet his attention wasn't focused on me. The one he wanted was Ximh.

****************
working on the next one! ^^'
This will be kinda short...I've been trying to create characters for a story KiKaiya and I came up with...so brain is kinda fried. But I'll still post! ^^
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Great...another Organization...if they think they can take this castle, they're sadly mistaken...
"A keyblade huh? Hehhehheh...this will be fun!" one of the intruders said, taking off his hood. He looked about 17 with spikey green hair and a cocky grin.
"This one's mine! Try to make it worth my time kid!"
Nyx and Xemmsur should be fine, I just wanted to shut this guy up for good...his attitude ticked me off.
He summoned a battle axe and ran at me...I blocked. He started laughing "Not bad! I'm Jax #XI! What's your name kid?"
"That's none of YOUR business..." I moved and slashed his side and knocked him away from me.
"Damn..." he swore as he got up..."I'm going to need to take you a bit more seriously ehh?"
Darkness started to surround everything, I smirked slightly as my wings appeared.
"Guess you should've...but it's too late for you now..."
"What the---?!" Jax yelled. "The hell is going on?!"
I felt the darkness grow...I loved the feeling...
"Now...you die!" I lunged at him.

TO BE CONTINUED! XD
