Adventures in Cosplay

This completely random story popped into my head after an intense argument with one of my friends that I wanted to be Riku for a convention this year and hopefully Halloween. I actually know 12 people who play Kingdom Hearts so this is what me and our Demyx talked about doing after talking with the said above friend who said I couldn't be Riku. We shall call this friend Larxene because she is mean and a female dog. (I'm trying my hardest not to cuss.) My mean sis also said I couldn't be Riku because I wasn't tall enough, so I will call her Vexen cuz she's old.

Well, the night this took place, I grabbed my old graduation robe, dyed it black, sewed some stuff on it, and bleached an old wig I bought one Halloween and dyed it silvery, like Zexion. A few days later, which was funny cuz all 13 of us were in the house, Demyx helped me put on my disguise, she did the same thing with her old robe and since she can mullet her hair, she did. We walked out dressed in our disguise and I blurted out "If I can't be Riku, I'll be Zexion and me and Demyx will beat you all!" Did I mention we were on a sugar high?

Anyway, I don't own anything in this story except Zexion's hopefully completely OOC personality. I based this personality on my sugar high anime one.

"Dear 2 through 13, I'm going on a vacation. You're on your own. Love, the Superior."

"Gee I didn't know he cared." Xigbar dripped fake sarcasm. The said members of the letter were all in the meeting room thinking now that Xigbar had finished reading the note their leader had left them. "So, what do we do now?" Demyx finally asked as everyone just was standing there looking at each other like idiots. "Redecorate? I HAVE been wanting to try out these new ideas I got watching TLC." Marluxia beamed. "No, no, NO! You will NOT redecorate this castle! You ruined the last one or don't you remember Oblivion?" Vexen grumbled. "Hey, it wasn't MY fault Sora had to run around each room 50 times and smash things to get cards and Moogle balls and build up his experience. I swear that most of that kid's adventure is just to stay in one area and fight until he reaches an insane experience level then fights us and kicks our butts because he's like level 99 or something." Marluxia then turns to look at the audience with a small grimace on his face. "You KNOW you people do that. DON'T lie!" he hisses.

"Who you talking to, Marluxia?" "Uh, no one." he laughs fakely. When Vexen turns away, Marluxia looks back at the audience. "I'm watching you." he mouths, then turns to leave the room. "I'm going to run some experiments on some stuff Xaldin brought back from Beast's Castle." Vexen teleported to his laboratory. Soon the room cleared out as each member thought to do something finally leaving Demyx and Zexion in the room. The two members looked at each other awkwardly, after all, they had never really spoken to each other before. Finally Demyx broke the silence. "Um, wanna do something?" he asked nervously. Demyx knew Zexion was a lot older mentally than him but the fact that they didn't age made Zexion look to be about his age, maybe younger. When Zexion didn't answer, Demyx began walking out of the room.

"Do you know what anime is?" Zexion asked matter of factly. Demyx turned around. "W…what?" "Anime. Do you know what anime is?" Zexion asked again. Demyx blinked. "Um, that's like Pokemon and Dragon Ball Z right?" Demyx let out a small laugh. Zexion grabbed Demyx by the arm. "It's MORE than that." he grinned. Zexion led Demyx straight to his room. Demyx gasped when he realized this. Sure he had been in Axel and Roxas' rooms and Saix's when it had been a terrible time of the month for him (something about moons and tides or something) but never dared to dream he would actually see Zexion's room. He always had a feeling that his room was different due to the fact no one knew what Zexion actually was like. He imagined everyone else's rooms were designed based on their talents. His room personally looked like an underwater aquarium music hall. Why Xemnas never sent him to Atlantica was beyond him.

They stepped inside and Demyx gasped in amazement. Every wall, even the ceiling, which used to all be white by the way, was covered in wall scrolls, unopened action figures, pictures, posters, anything you could think of anime. His bed sheets were of some anime, he had carpet that was anime, and of course no one could NOT notice the giant theater sized TV in his room along the only non decorated wall. "Woah." was all Demyx could say. "That's nothing. Check these out." Zexion had every anime and manga mentionable. Demyx's eye twitched. "Um so what are we…?" "Well, Demyx, I'm bored and I've decided to do something completely random and so unlike me and you will help." "Doing what?" Demyx gulped wide eyed as Zexion opened his closet . "Cosplay." Zexion gave that evil anime laugh.

"And why again am I doing this Zexy? It was a few hours later and the two were walking up and down the halls of the Castle that Never Was trying to draw attention. Zexion twitched at the sound of his nickname, which, in the past few hours, Demyx decided to begin calling him. The boy had a right though. It WAS Zexion's fault they were wearing anime costumes and wandering meandrously without reason throughout the castle. Demyx would have not complained as much if not for the fact he in fact looked like the very SAME person they were actually trying to beat. "You're doing this because you wanted to do something and the reason, before you ask, why you are dressed like that is because you can pull off the brown haired look better than I can." "But WHY do YOU get to be RIKU? He's always the dominant one in the relationship, even though SORA is the main character. Why the heck is that! And WHY do I HAVE to be SORA?" Demyx sank to the ground and began crying. "Hey, that's getting out of character! Sora's supposed to be happy! BE HAPPY!" Zexion hissed and began walking away. He turned around. "And call me Riku. How the hell do you think this will work if you keep calling me my real name?"

"How the hell will WHAT work!" Demyx grumbled. Zexion sighed and walked back to Demyx. "Listen, we're dressed like Riku and Sora from the very popular video game Kingdom Hearts which surprisingly is very similar to the real life events taking place at this very moment with us. Since two of the main characters are very similar to our two main nemesis's, dressing up like the characters who look like them and then messing around in the castle will make the others think that there is a breach in security around here and stop goofing off to protect the castle, thus letting Xemnas think that we can manage by ourselves and he'll take more vacations and then we won't have to listen to anymore of his stupid speeches that usually end up with Marluxia in tears, Vexen's I.Q. dropping 3 more points, Axel having to download MORE Jessie McCartney music to get Xemnas's voice out of his head, and I can have more time watching anime."

"You're only doing this for the anime time. You don't really give a crap about the others do you?" Zexion smiled. A BIG huge smile. One of those smiles that just screams EVIL. "Let's go." he said suddenly going back to being his Zexiony self, or rather his Zexiony RIKU self, full of angst and emo-ness. Demyx sighed and got up and began to follow his superior again. They kept walking, Zexion occasionally striking a random Heartless or Nobody that just also happened to be wondering around aimlessly, until at last, they came upon their first obstacle in their adventure, which, in the game, would be a boss battle. Unfortunately, said boss was very inebriated, naked, and laid spread eagle in their path. Now, knowing the structure of the Castle that Never Was and knowing that the said hallways our heroes were trekking in were VERY large, one might think if you see a fellow comrade in the obvious position of self loathing like the one the two gazed upon, all you would simply do is walk around said comrade and leave the problem for the others to deal with, but with Zexion in character as Riku, that could simply not be called for.

"ATTACK!" he yelled and began pummeling the naked member (Organization member, not THAT! Get your mind out of the gutter people!) repeatedly with his quite well make Way to the Dawn Keyblade. "Come on! Help me out SORA!" Demyx sighed and gave the little yells Sora usually made when striking things, beating the naked mass as well. Once Zexion believed they were finished, he smirked and began walking off, collecting the objects around the area, which consisted of chewing gum, some Munny, and tape. Demyx stayed back and looked at the pathetic mass of Nobody on the floor. "Sorry." he whispered and ran to catch up to Zexion.

An hour later, Vexen slowly got up, wincing when he realized he had several cuts and bruises on his body. "That is the LAST time I will accidentally mix up my chemicals with my alcohol!" He paused then groaned. "Who are you kidding Vexen? You'll never learn to label things." He sighed, got up, slowly, because he was beaten and looked around gasping when he realized. "Where's my gum, Munny, and tape!" He began to run in the direction Zexion and Demyx had gone an hour earlier after kicking his drunken ass. By the way, did I also mention he's still QUITE naked?

Zexion and Demyx were still roaming the halls when, to their surprise, heard a noise coming from one of the many rooms occupying said hall they were in. "Come Sora, let's check it out!" Zexion held his Keyblade up in the air and charged to the room that the noise was coming from. "Uh, Zexy…Riku, let's not go there!" Demyx yelled. Demyx actually was surveying the surroundings and realized that said room that the noise was coming from was owned by an Organization member. The same member that just until yesterday had made Demyx polished all his crystal dream catchers for a month because Demyx broke his favorite one. Demyx quite didn't want to see said member so soon. He looked at Zexion's charging back and groaned, following along, realizing he may not be recognized in the ridiculous outfit we was wearing.

Saix was busy. Too busy. Extremely busy. So busy that if two of his fellow Organization members were to barge in wearing, for some strange reason, costumes of the two enemies of their group, he would be too busy to notice they were said members and immediately think that they WERE the two enemies they needed to destroy. And this, my friends, is exactly what happened. Saix was busy polishing his dream catchers that up until yesterday, Demyx was cleaning. The boy didn't do a very good job and Saix was glad the month was over. To tell the truth, he wasn't really wanting to go through the punishment, but Xemnas insisted. Saix sighed. He was in for a long time. Good thing the Superior decided to go on vacation.

"Die, you Nobody!" A yell, that sounded familiar for some reason, brought him out of his daydream. He looked up to see Riku and Sora standing in HIS room, looking for a fight. "You!" he blurted out. He immediately dodged the incoming Keyblade being thrown at him and quickly ran to his closet where he rummaged around and found what he was looking for. Quickly he held up the item and transformed. After what seemed like a thirty second transformation, complete with preppy power up music I must add, Saix stepped up to the two Keyblade bearers. "I am Pretty Soldier Saix Moon and in the name of the Kingdom Hearts moon, I shall punish you!" he yelled. Said Saix Moon was wearing, you guessed it, a sailor suit.

After stopping Demyx from gouging out his eyes, Zexion smirked. "We know your secrets Saix Moon. You shall never defeat us!" and with that statement, Zexion smashed one of the dream catchers on the table. "Nooooooo! Monica! How dare you!" Saix Moon lunged to the two but was stopped when he slipped on one of his beloved dream catchers and fell on the ground, hard. "That was easy! Two down!" Zexion smiled and walked out, carrying with him, one of Saix's dream catchers Demyx for sure knew was named Phoebe.

Vexen continued his naked pursuit of whoever stole his precious items when he saw that the door to Saix's room was open. He walked in to find Saix, in a sailor suit, crying, clutching a broken dream catcher in his hands. "Saix…Moon…are you okay?" Vexen queried. He, for unknown reasons, knew that when Saix was in this costume, he liked to be called Saix Moon. Saix Moon sniffed. Riku and Sora are in the castle Vexen and they SMASHED Monica and kidnapped Phoebeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!" He broke out in tears yet again. Vexen sighed. "They must be the ones that stole my stuff as well! We'll get them! Come on." "No. Not with you wearing that!" Vexen looked down and finally discovered he was indeed quite naked. "Don't worry I have just the thing!" Saix threw a rose to Vexen, who caught it and transformed. When the music and brilliant lights faded, Vexen realized he was wearing a tuxedo. "You're now known as Tuxedo Vexen!" Saix Moon cheered.

The two walked out of the room. Tuxedo Vexen smirked an evil yet surprisingly charming smirk. "Mark my words Riku and Sora, you're going down!"

Whooo! First chapter down. Yay! You can now review your pretty little heads off. Not really. If you did, you couldn't read my stories and I would be sad.

Anywho about some stuff. Yes, Marluxia for once is right. I was at level 99 when I beat him. Yes I'm pathetic. I was also at level 99 every time I beat the first and second PS2 games as well. Talk about overkill.

I HATE Sailor Moon. We all used to be in to it when we were younger, but only our Larxene is into it now, hence why I made fun of it. Demyx said I should have used her instead of Saix but since our Saix is dating our Larxene, I decided to kill two birds with one stone and make fun of them both. It's not like they will read this anyway. Besides our Saix and Vexen like to go out drinking together and Saix has seen Vexen naked. (Note: when they were kids. My sis (Vexen) and (Saix) were best friends growing up. They've seen everything! Oh and the fact we're cousins.)

Eep. I better go. I see Vexen is lurking around. I hope she doesn't see this. She'll kill me.

So review.
