After leaving the meeting I went with Kyxsha into the kitchen. She grabbed out a bag of cookies as we discussed our first actions. We had to check on the members who'd been injured in Agrabah. And so the infirmary was our first stop. There was a new guy there, and Xait. They'd been talking before we interrupted them, now they merely stood there staring. I asked the new guy for his name and suddenly he jumped into action...kissing Kyxsha's hand as he introduced himself. I stepped forward and brushed her hand away from him. I proceeded to ask him his business and the current condition of the patients in this room...I had a feeling my face was grim...I wasn't in the mood for horseplay right now...the Leader had put me in a foul mood.
When he started flirting with Kyxsha again, it annoyed me. I mean...he commented about how her beauty rivaled Aphrodite...I KNEW Aphrodite and if she heard that...she would've cursed him for comparing her beauty to ANYONE. I stepped forward quickly. Hopefully MY INTRODUCTION would make him back off. "I am Ximh, formerly Magni SON OF THOR!"
He laughed and called me Spiked-hair guy. =-=' I didn't say anything...but it made me wonder just how thick this guy was...blowing off a GOD. Suddenly I felt something inside my body...my electric brain signals were going haywire like there was an intruder...and New Guy's eyes were closed as he concentrated. I charged forward, grabbed him by the throat and shoved him to the wall.
"What was that?!" I yelled for answers. He was quiet so I tightened my grip and came in closer. "Tell me what that was, unless you want to die..."
"My...power..." He mumbled. I had no patience for this...not after I'd just had a near death experience.
"What?" I growled.
"I was...just checking your cells...for damage..." He stammered. I was squeezing his throat pretty tight. I loosened up and then Kyxsha yelled for me to stop. I dropped him and he fell gasping for air.
"Spiked hair guy...you gotta calm down man." He stuttered. That was the last thing I needed to hear from him.
"Do it again, and I'll shock you into oblivion." I warned him. I would permit no insurgence into my being!
Suddenly the girl who was lying in the bed jumped up and stood in front of me defensively. She looked ready to pass out...yet fire was at her feet. "He'll do what he wants. And if you even so much as touch him again I'll deep fry you to a place so much further than oblivion. Got that lightning rod?" She snarled. I tried to keep myself from laughing. She was very brave...commendable...but her arrogance would inevitably get her killed. Part of being a warrior was knowing your limits...in her current condition...she would never make for a decent match. Though I doubted I would fight her even if she were at full fighting strength. She was still weaker than me...and how I hated fighting the weak.
Wearing a fierce expression I began. "Idiot. You are in NO condition to make threats. I'll ignore that comment you made this once...and take it as an empty threat." I scoffed. She looked horrible...she was pale and it was OBVIOUS something was wrong...she needed to rest. "I don't know who you think you are...but this is between me and New Guy. I won't fight you like you want...lay back down and rest!" I ordered harshly. My intentions were good...but I just didn't have the patience to word them right.
"You could say that a little more gently..." Kyxsha whispered. I gave her a look like...I'm in NO MOOD to be GENTLE right now...and she went quiet.
"Yes Lady Deidrix please...get some more rest!" New Guy shouted jumping up. He stood beside me and slapped my back. I gave him a slight glare but he continued to smile. "Me and spiked hair guy here are just playing around! Besides...it was my fault for messing with him...not his..."
"But he said..." Deidrix started.
"He had every right to say that!" Tamex laughed. "I would if I thought I was under attack too! Come on...wouldn't you?"
"I guess...but..." Deidrix agreed lowering her guard. Then she looked at me again. "No! He was still rude!" She started again. She glared straight at me.
"Ugh! JUST GO TO SLEEP!" I shouted, my eyes and her eyes locked. I rewrote the signals in her mind and she suddenly looked shocked. "Catch her New guy." I ordered. He looked at me questionably but then seeing Deidrix begin to fall forward rushed over and caught her. She was dead asleep...and would be for a couple hours. She needed it though...her mind was flooded with traumatic stress...her memories were taking all her strength.
"What did you do?!" Xait yelled. Almost as though he wished he could've done that in the first place.
My eyes narrowed. "I rewrote the signals in her brain so that she could get some peaceful rest. Something is bothering her...she has to sleep it off."
"Aw, so nice Ximh." Kyxsha commented with a smile, admiring how I not only avoided a battle...but did something to help the obstinate girl.
I sighed and looked away. "She'll only get in the way if she's distracted. I didn't do it to help her..." I denied. "Which brings me to the next point. You two have to come with us." I said looking at Xait and Tamex. "And as for them...they're doing just fine. Wake them up will you Kyxsha? They can come with us as well."
Kyxsha walked over to them and began nudging them to life. After lying Deidrix back in her bed, Tamex looked up to me with a questionable glare. I knew I didn't really want to know...but I asked anyway. "What do you want now?"
"Nothing really...I just wonder...how the heck do you get your hair so spiky?" He asked. I nearly fell over but getting a malicious thought I glared at him with a slight smile.
"Would you like me to SHOW you? Though...since you are water it may hurt..."
"Nah...nevermind ! ^^' " He smiled cautiously. He laughed it off but as my mood was starting to lighten a portal suddenly opened up above us.
"PLEASE TAKE CARE OF HER!!!" We heard...I recognized the voice immediately...that woman who ordered me around...Nyx.
Someone fell from the portal and landed right on Tamex. It was that RaXi woman...and she was unconscious.
Ximh
