"Quite agressive, are we now? I'm surprised knowing this unknown side of you even existed although it was a bit unfair to judge you since we have only known each other for less than a day."
"Heh, well admittingly it is a side-effect of the song. And I am very sorry for anything I might have said to offend you when I was in Rage mode. In no way was it how I feel about you, so don't let the insults bother you if I said any. It can get a bit out of hand I'll admit..." Sumxic started saying, raising his hands to the back of his head as he returned to a more relaxed state. "Besides, after what this jerk did to you I couldn't-" But before he could even finish the though, he was embraced suddenly by Xiras, whose head rested against his bare chest, exposed due to the single hit Saix gained on him.
"Don't think of this as anything hinting to me liking you since we nobodies can't like at all but I want to thank you and Xadnte for being there for me. You two, especially you Sumxic, almost make me feel like I still have some form of a heart beating inside of me. I don't know why am I acting like this whether it's me pretending or not but I like to hope that despite our lack of hearts that our friendship is real."
Taken aback at first, he slowly shook off the suprise and wrapped his arms around the woman, looking down as she relaxed against him. "Silly Sira, you should know by now that a heart doesn't decide who your friends are. You know that I always got your back and pretty much no matter what you do (considering you have beaten me up a few times) I will always be by your side. No need to question it, for as much as it is worth to ya, I wouldn't trade our friendship for anything Sira." Replied Sumxic in a soft, soothing voice. Releasing his arms around her as she still held onto him, he checked his iFight as a look of worriedness quickly shot across his face and vanished again.
Damn, 20 seconds left before I feel the pain from the hit. Well, he should be paralyzed for a good while, but we should head back soon. "Listen Xiras, can you take Xadnte and our prisoner back to the castle? I am sure once you get there it will be easy to find rope or something to confine him. I am sure Ramaxuli has plans for our guest." He asked, tilting her head up so that his violet eyes stared deep into hers. "And don't worry, I am going on ahead to the castle. Tell the truth, in a couple of seconds I am going to become real useless, so don't wanna burden you."
Disengaging the warm embrace he shared before she could reply, he backed up and openned a corridor leading back to where Ramaxuli last was. Arriving there, he noted no sign of their leader, and to his dismay he heard the words: "Song over." In an instant the pain surged from his chest throughout his body. All the pain of getting hit and running around with broken ribs struck him at once, sending him doubling over in pain as he spat out blood. "Damn...dammit. Song, is nothing...nothing but a double-edged sword...this song. J-just, have to wait...for healing song..." mumbled Sumxic through the occasionally cough of blood, as he sat there awaiting the one song he could use to heal his wounds. It may come up next, may take few tries. Could even not pop up till next week. Such was the handicap to his versatility, no choice in what song played next.

Well, if you were out for revenge, you took out the wrong guy. Axel didn't touch your soldier; I did that. And I'd do it again; he tried to stop me from saving my best friend from getting poisoned. If I were you, I'd get ready to eat my words, because you're about to die by MY blade!"
"I don't think you can take him all on your own Roxas."
"You would be wise to heed her warning, as foolish as she is for drawing her weapon. You may outnumber me, but I am ready for all scenarios. Now, watch as I-" started Aries as he reached in his pocket, only to receive a shot to the abdomen before he had time to react. This one's fast. I have to be more alert...
"Listen to me, don't you dare underestimate what I can do, or there will be some massive problems. Understand?"
"Might I inquire as to what is going on here?"
"What? Another one? Fine, bring on the whole Organizaton if you must, I will gladly finish you all off at once. Saves me the time to track you all down. Now perish, secret form: Steel!!" He shouted as he swallowed yet another dog tag. His sword became shiny as a metallic coating gathered over Indole. With this, I can cut through any metal as if it were butter. My foes will die here...
"Zexion? Why, hello. I'm Bellatrix. I've been told that you can help me, and I was hoping to join your alliance."
"What is this, a damn tea party!! Pay attention fool!!" He yelled, sending a wave of is needles from his sword that could piece the flesh with ease. "Come on, it's you all against me, try and make this somewhat fun before I kill you all!!"
