gamblecardshark: (Is this your card?//Luxord)
[personal profile] gamblecardshark posting in [community profile] thecomplex
His brows arched together in confusion. Something seemed strange. There was something off about his surroundings but he couldn't quite place what exactly. He pulled out a deck of cards and began shuffling them absently. It was a method he developed to help him concentrate. He glanced down at the deck, watching his fingers filter through the cards. He only looked down for a moment but when he looked up again, everything had changed. This wasn't the garden he'd been in only moments before. He was now sitting in the middle of an unfamiliar courtyard. He continued to shuffle the cards, trying to think of a logical explanation to how he arrived here. He couldn't come up with an idea that was plausible, though.

He looked up again. He seemed perfectly at ease in his new surroundings. There was no point in being dramatic or getting upset by the situation. He felt an unpleasant fluttering in his stomach, though, as a thought sank in. He wouldn't see them again. He wouldn't see any of the Nobodies again. Not Axel or Saix or Roxas or Xigbar. He wouldn't see Xaldin again, wouldn't hear his deep laugh.

Despite these uncomfortable ideas, he continues to shuffle the deck. "Hmm. This isn't where I was. I wonder where I am now."

The familiar voice makes him stop, turning to look at the other male. Michiko gurgles happily and reaches a tiny hand in Luxord's direction. Zexion is never sure what to expect from Organization members and merely watches him cautiously from a safe distance.

"Luxord." He greets the man, tone even. He doesn't seem inclined to reply to that question--mostly because he's not sure if Luxord is trustworthy or not. He's on guard.

"It's been a while."

There's no describing the feeling that jolts through him the moment he realizes Luxord has snatched the stroller away. Michiko is still babbling happily in her carrier. The twins are still fast asleep and unaware that they're with someone else now.

Zexion on the other hand, briefly looks afraid when he turns to face Luxord. One arm curls protectively over Michiko who responds by grabbing his sleeve and playing with it.

"I didn't kidnap them."

His eyes narrow, but the worry is still showing clearly. He can never tell what someone from the Organization is going to try.

"You're the one kidnapping here. So unless you want a fight, I would suggest you return my children."

He's not sure he can fight Luxord properly with the kids there. He really doesn't want it to come to that.

At least it seems like Luxord doesn't mean the children any harm. But he's still not comfortable with this situation.

"That would be because, biologically, the twins are not mine. They are, however, my fiance's children. And regardless of who their birth father is, I consider them my own."

The whimper draws his attention and he makes a slight move as if to check on the child before stopping himself. He doesn't want Luxord to take them and run or something.

"In any case, I didn't suddenly do anything. The twins are nearly four months old and Michiko had her first birthday back in May."

He pauses for a moment to fish out Michiko's teething ring as the child tries to chew on the collar of his coat. She seems pleased to accept the teething ring instead however, leaving the collar alone.

"I really don't want this to come to a fight, Luxord. So tell me what I have to do to prove I'm being honest."

Because he doesn't want to risk the kids getting hurt and he's not letting Luxord walk off with Masaru and Izumi.

There's a beat of hesitation--many of the Organization isn't trustworthy and he doesn't want to appear weakened before them. However as he looks the situation over, Luxord's concern seems genuine.

"I'm not without a heart any longer, Luxord. If you want proof then you can check for yourself. Or I suppose you could ask my fiance directly. She's the one who helped me find it."

He hates this situation. It reminds him all too well of the night the Organization fell. Of Xemnas holding Michiko's egg and using it against him. He doesn't like the idea of Luxord doing the same now.

"I'm likely not who you believe I am. In my world, the Organization has fallen. Xemnas is dead. And the only thing I'm trying to do is live a peaceful life with my family. If you don't trust me then let me call their mother to come get them. Alright?"

Compromise. He hopes it's enough. He's getting increasingly anxious in this situation.
