...Okay, I must explain Aozora's nickname. XD; I wear this trenchcoat to school sometimes, and one time, someone called me Matrix. XDD; So now Megan -cough- is going to call trenchcoat-boy Matrix, since I find it rather funny.
And she doesn't know his name yet. Har.
Violence! o=
Right, about Sony.... xDD I was randomly poking around the Al Bhed to English translator, so I used my other character's name in there. Myra, right?
IT'S SONY. XDDDDDD I found it so amusing, I just had to meantion it. Sony and/or Matrix does not belong to me. xD
Enuff of names. TO THE UPDATE!

//OblivionAngel\\
I stepped hard on one of Xaldin's many spears as it flew towards me, effectively pinning it to the ground and also gaining a height boost. Airborne, I raised OblivionAngel above my head as I neared the Whirlwind Lancer, and abruptly brought it down upon his head. Unfortunately, Xaldin blocked my assualt with a couple well-placed spears. Setting my teeth in a tight grimace, I flipped over the dark-haired Nobody, landing behind him. As soon as my shoes touched the carpet, the butt of a spear crashed into my side, sending me flying against the wall. Wincing lightly and suppressing a groan of pain, I rolled away with wide eyes just as a sharpened spearhead embedded itself in the wall.
Nimbly leaping to my feet, I slashed through Xaldin's barricade of spears until I was upon him once again, and this time I side-stepped gracefully before jamming my elbow into his face. Stumbling back and holding his now-bleeding nose, Xaldin glared menacingly at me, to which I leveled OblivionAngel with his square head, challenging. Growling lowly, the Whirlwind Lancer thrust his hand at me, and his six lances closed in on me at different angles. Cursing, I enveloped OblivionAngel in ebony flames and twirled it expertly over my head to ward the spears away. Tightening my grip around OblivionAngel, I thrust my free hand at Xaldin in quick jabbing motions, sending lucid whisps of fire at him, loudly cracking and smoldering at him.
The Whirlwind Lancer deflected most of the flame's burns, but didn't come out of the attack unscathed; I smirked smugly, thinking I had this battle won. But then SHE interupted.
"Matrix!" What the fudge?
I whirled around to find Megan in the doorway, Kaze by her side, the brunette girl waving rapidly and the blonde freak beside her still nonchalant as ever. Was she calling ME "Matrix"? Or was she just ... remembering it for no apparent reason...? Either way, she got Xaldin's intention, if that was her original plan at all. What she did NOT know was Xaldin knew who both she and I were; now he was the one smirking. Eyes widening as the Whirlwind Lancer commanded his spears toward the two, I thrust OblivionAngel forward to intercept the attack, my weapon connected by burning strands of ebony flames from my gloved fingertips.
Okay, I admit it, I stole that move from Axel. You know it's awesome.
Warding away the lances, I charged at Xaldin, and, too busy with his many spears, the Nobody was pushed through the glass window with a deafening shatter. Off the balcony and into the night he fell. I sighed in relief, dismissing OblivionAngel from my grasp. Turning, I yelped in surprise at coming face-to-face with Megan. She eyed me skeptically, concern clouding her chocolate-brown eyes.
"You okay, Matrix?" She asked in all seriousness.
I blinked, then finally managed an,"Uh, yeah."
Hey, it's better than "Aozoree", right?
Shuddup, no one asked you.
... just commenting, gosh. You're so mean to me, Aozora. The presence in my mind sulked in a dark corner, and I silently glared at him, not falling for his poor acting.
"Good, now we just need to find Sara. And tell her that Beast wants to kill her." Megan's random musings interupted the inner battle with myself.
I looked around the room, noticing the effects of my previous battle were settling in. Then I froze in slight terror. "Where exactly IS Beast...?"
We all stood in silence for a breif moment before sprinting out of the room and screaming Sora's name, only Megan would occasionally shout "Sara" or "Girly-Boy" instead. Not that I minded much; in fact, I quietly agreed with her.
//Solar Flare\\
"Ugh, this is IMPOSSIBLE, he could be anywhere," I complained loudly, collapsing to my knees.
Besides, my ankles hurt, I thought irritably, glaring at the floor.
Thus-titled "Matrix" stooped by my side, nodding sympathetically,"I know, but we can't leave until he's found. When we DO find Sora, we'll tell you ... uhm ... why we needed to find him."
"Despite the fact Beast wants to slaughter him?" I looked up at Matrix with a single eyebrow raised, doubtful amusement filling my voice.
"Uh, right," Trenchcoat-boy answered readily, however the wavering of his voice easily revealed his blatant uncertainty.
Sighing, I reluctantly climbed to my feet, grumbling randomly about my name being out of place. Shrugging, Matrix also rose and continued along, following the light that filtered through one of the doorways. Light means fire which means people. More specifically, Sora. Kaze was the first inside the room, followed by Matrix, and then I popped in after them. Plopped down in front of the fireplace was not the spiky-haired idiot we were looking for, but possibly someone more girly.
"What're YOU doing out!?" Matrix blurted out, sounding both annoyed and shocked.
The figure turned, his amethyst eyes catching the light and reflecting playfulness,"Sora's takin' a nap."
Damn, he sounded familiar. Then again, everyone here seemed to sound vaguely like someone else. And the back of his head looks---
Shuddup, self.
Matrix was mere inches from the newcomer's face, teeth clenched as he managed to grind out,"Go. Get. Sora."
"Aren't you nice." He stood up anyhow, towering over Matrix and sauntering proudly out of the room, leaving the cloaked one to glower from under his hood at him. When the newcomer passed me, I noticed his hair was the same shade as his eyes, and he was wearing black pants with an inversable vest. But there was nothing underneath the vest. Leaving his whole ... chest n' stuff ... out ... and ... ---
AW, DAMN!
He is freakin' hawt.... But I think I've seen him somewhere. Maybe he's a fictional character. Afterall, that's who I've been hanging out with this last ... day or so. IT'S POSSIBLE!
FOR AN ORDINARY PUMPKIN TO BECOME A GOLDEN CARRIAGE!
[/Cinderella]
HOLY SHIZNAP!
... he ... he winked at me....
Apalled, I yelped and jumped away from the over-purpled guy in surprise, eye twitching. He chuckled silently before leaving my sight entirely.
I gaped at his back, trying to comprehend that I had been winked at. By someone that wasn't a pedophile---
Wait, I didn't know that for sure....
Well, anyway. We waited in a confused silence until Sora stumbled into the room, yawning and still half-asleep. Matrix rushed forward and pulled the spiky-haired brunette aside, whispering feircely. Sora nodded absently, and I could easily tell he was only half-listening, using the teenage skill widely know as "selective hearing". When the two returned to Kaze and I, Matrix was silently fuming, and Sora was still trying to wake up.
"Well, anyway," I muttered, then raised my voice to a hearing level. "Sora, Beast wants to kill you."
He had obviously not fully woken up yet,"Wha?"
I cupped my hands around my mouth and shouted irritatedly near his spiky head,"BEAST WANTS TO KILL YOU."
Sora jumped back, slamming into a wall with wide, attentive cerulean---
Red.... Strawberry red.... I'll never get used to that.
"Was that really necessary, Sony?" Matrix asked, and I looked at him in confusion.
"Did you just call me SONY?" I asked skeptically, not believing what I had heard and raised a single eyebrow in a humorous amusement.
"Hey, if you give ME a nickname, I should be able to give you one, too."
I blinked slowly, still doubtful,"But your nickname is RELEVENT, Matrix."
"So is yours,"he replied smoothly, prompting me to tilt my head to the side in utter befuddlement.
At that point, Kaze whacked Matrix upside the head, irritated, as if the other had just given away some sort of secret or another. Before Kaze could initiate himself into "Scolding Mode", a familiar, deafening roar ripped through the castle, causing me to shriek in surprise. Again.
I get surprised easily.
The door was abruptly thrown off its hinges with a distinct boom, the remains of the entrance colliding with Kaze and sending the blonde into the far wall with a painful-sounding crack. I gasped and called his name, as if that would help.
Don't you shout people's names when they slam into walls? Of course you do. I'm rambling now, only because I'm trying to avoid the Mary-Sue-like trait I'm about to experience....
I had been too preoccupied with shrieking Kaze's name that I didn't hear Matrix's cry of warning. Or I didn't even realize he was calling me; my name isn't Sony, dude.
"MEGAN!" He finally yelled, and I whirled around for the sole purpose of being freaked out.
I didn't tell him my name, did I...? I ... don't remember---
That thought was instantly shaken from my mind as Beast's fist was suddenly on a direct beeline towards my head, and I remember only the pitch blackness of unconciousness after that.
