"Well this is interesting," I said walking through the North tower. I had been walking through each of them to see who was where. I pulled out a pad of paper and slid my glove down to bite at my forefinger. Blood trickled nicely into easy to read letters.
"Let’s see....we have those two in North tower....yes a few in the East...hm....I remember them from the South tower....well that is everyone..." I said as I wrote each name in blood.
They were all getting adjusted to their rooms quite nicely except for a few fights which were to be expected. I folded the paper in half, and my finger bled a bit more.
I looked around and put my finger straight in my mouth. I hated to spill blood on the clean floors.
"Um...Triskix-san...." a girl's voice started. I turned around sharply ripping the glove back on and looked at the nobody before me.
"Ah yes you are Vexe, am I wrong?" I asked looking at her.
"Y-yes I’m Vexe...." she answered.
I stared for a moment before proceeding. How had someone as timid as this become a nobody??
"And what may I help you with?" I asked.
"Um...well....I was just wondering if you wanted to talk," she said starting to get more confident.
"About?" I asked.
"Well um.....so you were the first one in the castle after the death of the original 13...."
"No," I answered.
"Um...well...." she started up again.
Suddenly a heartless attacked me.
"What in...." I said angrily, "You stupid creature."
I took out my scythe and sliced it in half and watched it dissolve.
"Traitorous bug," I said, "Now come out you prankster!"
A laugh echoed through the halls.
"So you knew it was me?" a voice asked.
"Why else would a dog attack his master other than provication?" I asked rolling my eyes. Sure enough Deidrex appeared.
"Aw you are no fun, Triskix," she laughed.
"And why would I care for ‘fun’ when there are things to get done?" I asked wishing they would all leave me back to my work. I brushed by them and up to my room. At least there I could get some peace and quiet….
Just as I was reorganizing my papers, my door flew open. I heard a sizzle and my door melted.
Oops, wrong door!" a girl said. I recognized her as Akane. I remembered the fact that she lacked an X in her name, and I was about to question her about it when she gave me a look of panic. I tried very hard not to be angry with a newling, but to have melted my front door on the first day??
"You melted my front door!?" I yelled.
"Xait made me do it!" she yelled, running down a level to another room.
“Xait made her do it…” I repeated trying to find the logic in it where there was none….
“I believed this to be an Organization…not an electuary school. I sighed and began to reorganize my papers. Suddenly one of my heartless crawled in.
“What do you want?” I asked not very interested at this point.
It just stared and finally I looked up.
“The Library?” I said looking at it.
It nodded, and I felt the sudden urge to kill something. I walked straight down to it and sure enough the Library had been opened.
“What are you two doing here?” I asked harshly, “This is the Leader’s private Library.”
Lexian and Amaterasux looked at me. I felt a twinge of irritation as I realized who it was.
“This is his library?” Amaterasux asked.
“Yes it is his library ,” I said still glaring at them, “And I will have you both hanged for this if that is the Leader’s wish.
“Hey don’t act so showy you are the same as you always were Triskax,” Lexian said sharply.
“You are defy me?” I asked daring him now. I wanted to see what he would do.
“You are not the Leader,” Lexian answered.
I felt a smirk run on my lips. I snapped my fingers and flames appeared in a circle around them.
“Now now Triskix what are you doing?” the Leader’s sharp voice asked.
“Sir,” I said turning swiftly to see him.
“Triskix, these children are allowed in this library if they desire it,” the leader answered.
“Fine,” I said. I snapped my fingers again and the flames went away, “Enjoy your stay in the Library.”
I walked away but was able to hear Lexian murmur to Amaterasux not to worry and that I had always and will probably always be like that. I chuckled at that and continued on my way.
