An Unexpected Meeting

Character(s): Larxene, Link, and Sora
Content: Three unlikely people run into each other...really.
Setting: Paixao Central Station
Time: Week 23
Warnings: None. It's Link and Sora. And Larxene...but she's "sweet" Larxene :3.

Larxene strolled down a path near central Station, passing it by without much attention and finishing up a croissant she had gotten from Cafe Ersesat. Plans were going slow, but she needed some freedom that wasn't wasted with just her toy collection. Though she really missed playing with them. It was only a matter of time before they get reacquainted, considering she was going to get too, too bored soon. Recently, however, she had to create a new alias. Going around with an organization coat made anyone suspicious now, apparently, and her "Cora" facade was dwindling. She was aware that some knew the person behind the name, and other than the idiots who couldn't see otherwise, she couldn't go by it any longer. With this in mind, she chose a casual outfit, with a stylish, black yacht cap, enough to hide all her hair. If anything was recognizable about her, it was her forelocks. Her blonde mane was also part of her description, something she noted while lurking in the journals. It couldn't be risked. That, aaaaand it opened new possibilities.

She smiled devilishly to herself.

Link hadn't interacted with many people in Paixao. He had met that pretty girl names Vanessa, but it seemed she disappeared. Perhaps she had found a way out of the city? In any case, Link was once again left alone, looking for either Navi, a way out of the city and back to Hyrule, or both.

The Hylian was deep in thought as he walked past the station. Perhaps too deep, as he bumped into a young woman wearing a black hat. "Sorry about that." As he apologized, he inwardly smacked himself for being so stupid.

Sora was still kicking himself over the complete mess he had made with Scar and Simba. Why couldn't he had just kept his big mouth shut? How was he going to make up for it? Could he even?

Sora sighed heavily as he made his way to the station, bumping into an boy slightly older than him wearing a very weird outfit on the way. "Oh sorry"

Usually, Larxene had very good reflexes enough to avoid certain incidents. It seemed she got a bit too distracted now, as someone suddenly bumped into her. Due to her training, she didn't budge that much, but it still got her lips frowning and her stomach writhing in annoyance. She didn't care for "sorry"s - she hated when people didn't look where they were going. And this guy was going to get quite the consequence. Guess she was going to have fun anyway. Smirking inwardly to herself as her eyes twinkled sharply, she eyed him up and down as she shoved him away by the shoulder, the action probably causing that other collision. She paused from doing anything else, the little sweet grin on her lips stopping mid-way as she studied the newcomer in near disbelief.

Today must be her lucky day, it seemed~.

She was caught off-guard, true, but it was rather amazing how the keyblade wielder managed to go straight into her palms like this, and her brain was reeling from it. She could only imagine the advantage that this might entail in the future if she played her cards right. And she wasn't going to let the opportunity get away. Thinking fast, she decided to put on a little act. It was perfect to try her new alias too, with a different character that separated her from her true nature.

Since a good samaritan wouldn't wait too long in apologizing for this awful moment where people might have gotten hurt, she went forward to make sure they were "alright". "Oh! Are you guys okay? I'm so, so sorry...bad reaction from me."

Link felt the shove he received from the girl, and he teetered backwards into the other boy that hadn't been too attentive either. At least he managed to keep his balance instead of falling on his backside. The push was rather suspicious, but it could have just been a reflex from the girl. He rubbed the back of his neck.

"Don't worry about it. It was my fault. I'm ok." He glances behind him at the boy wearing very large shoes for his size. "How about you?"

Sora held up his hands apologetically, "Sorry about that I was, um, distracted," he replied, "But I'm fine."

Unfortunately, Sora had no idea who the woman was, if he had know he would have probably hightailed it, and would have made sure that the other boy would have gotten as far away form her as possible. But alas, Sora was completely unawares.

"Uh, you two new here?"

Larxene placed a "still guilty" expression as she watched them both worriedly, though relieved now. Or so one would think. She truthfully wanted to roll her eyes, but she kept her attitude in check. The whole thing was entertaining to watch and experience since they were unknowingly interacting with an enemy. At least, Sora was. The new boy could be one of her possible puppets. This placed her in a good mood. A very good mood. How hard was it to act all nice and...sweet anyway? It left a bad taste in her mouth, of course, but the outcome was worth it. Whether she'd do this for the Organization or for herself, well...

Hearing what Sora inquired, she pointed at herself in question. She eyed the blond male first to check if he would respond, before saying, "I've...been here a while. Though I haven't seen you guys around..."

She stared around her surroundings, continuing quietly, "It's sort of a weird place, isn't it?"

"Realizing" she spoke out loud her thoughts, she shut her mouth, looking sideways as if wondering if she said too much. Larxene hadn't quite decided what role she was playing, but she supposed the easily embarrassed, but spunky type could work.

Link wasn't too easy to anger in most situations. Something like being bumped in to to could annoy him, but an apology from the one at fault seemed to dispel any negative feelings.

The question the other boy posed was a bit unnerving. New? Link figured he would be considered a new person here, as he hadn't been in this Paixao place for very long, though he really didn't want to stay here to be considered anything else. He had to get back to Hyrule!

"I'm new, I guess."

In response to the young woman's question, Link replied, "It is weird, though, I've seen some stranger things." Each temple he walked in to seemed to get stranger and stranger. At least this place seemed to be void of any monsters. Well, so far at least.

Now it was time to ask his own question. "Have either of you seen a fairy flying around? She'd be very loud and maybe a bit annoying, but she's a friend of mine." It was crucial for Link to look for Navi here. If she was in the city, he couldn't look for an escape without finding her first. He really hoped that she had somehow stayed behind in Hyrule, though at the moment there was no way for him to make sure where she was.

Sora had settled into a relaxed position with his hands behind his head. Maybe making new friends would make him feel better after everything that happened.

"I've been here a few weeks myself, I'm Sora, by the way," He held his hand out to shake the older boy's.

At the description of the fairy the other boy was looking at, Sora raised an amused eyebrow, "You know Tinker Bell?" Yeah, okay, it probably wasn't Tink, but the description was so close that he had to ask.

The conversation reminded Larxene why she stuck with her more underhanded co-workers, even with all their annoyances. They were interesting, to some extent, give or take a few that she would rather not deal with. Or see. The people here with Hearts right now were dull. She could tell these two were the blind hero types already, though she had severely expected it with Sora. The other, who she never heard of, was quickly placed in the same category. She had a severe fondness of making them her victims because they were so cliche, predictable, and fun to toy with. She would have smirked and tried something if it wasn't for the fact that she was another character at the moment. Now, about the stupid fairy...

She retained her nice, sweet voice, rubbing her arm in thought at the question. "I haven't seen a fairy either. Or a pixie. But I wish to see one so much. I didn't even know they existed. I should have known, with all the citizens here..."

There was a pause, before she let out a small "oh!" of realization as she took Sora's example in introducing herself. She gave them all a smile, tilting her head anxiously at her supposed lack of manners. The real her just scoffed inwardly. "It seems I've been so rude today. My name's Meallan, nice to meet you."

"I'm Link." He took Sora's hand, and afterwards, extended it towards Meallan. She seemed shy, so he wouldn't be surprised or offended if she didn't take it.

"Tinker Bell? I haven't met that fairy. I'm looking for one called Navi." Link didn't expect Sora to have seen Navi, as he seemed like the kind of person to have mentioned her if he did. He was also disappointed to hear that Meallan also hadn't seen Navi. Hopefully, she really was still in Hyrule.

Well, now that he knew that neither Sora nor Meallan had seen his fairy partner, it was time to ask something else. "Have either of you ever figured out how to get out of the city? I really can't waste much time here. I have to get back to Hyrule." He hoped that one of them had heard of Hyrule, but something told me that Hyrule was foreign to them. "I've been looking everywhere, but there doesn't seem a way out. None of the doors that lead to other worlds seem to lead there."

"Likewise," He replied to Meallan with a smile, then he turned his attention back to Link, "Sorry, but, I don't think she's here."

Sora frowned when Link mentioned finding a way out, back to what must have been his home. "I haven't found a way yet, Link, but I will, there has to be a way out."

At the mention of the doors, Sora's frown deepened. "Even if those did lead to Hyrule, it wouldn't be the real Hyrule. Those worlds are fake."

She was concerned that they would have suspected something from the way she spoke her name. Rather, her fake name~. She didn't plan on it being so, and it came right on the spot. Thankfully, she had gone to library trips enough to gain some knowledge on the names she picked up from books. It didn't matter anyway. So far, it seemed they were utterly and completely falling for her new persona. It was almost too entertaining. Playing along, she shook Link's hand, pretending to be slightly flustered, and smiled back at Sora. Oh, how temptation was creeping. Still, they were finally getting into topics that she was curious to hear. She rolled her eyes mentally at Sora's determination on finding a way out, and when they were done with their "thought process", she looked at them both. "I haven't found a way out either. It seems when you come here, you're stuck here..."

She frowned, putting up a sad countenance at the despairing thought. "Though, if you want to look at it in a positive, way, I've grown rather accustomed to it. And I've witnessed a lot of people making new friends that they wouldn't have. But, I guess in the end...there's nothing like home. You should be careful of those people in black coats, though, Link, since you're new. I've heard weird things about them in my stay."

She eyed the boy worriedly, her expression grim, but she waited for a reaction to her comment.

The responses he got from both Sora and Meallan were not what he wanted to hear. Though, if Sora was right, and Navi wasn't in the city, then it was one less thing to worry about, as she would still be back in Hyrule. However, the thought of not being able to get out wasn't a good one. Ganondorf was still in power, and there were still curses to lift on some of the temples in Hyrule. If he stayed too long, Ganondorf might even be able to put new curses on the temples he had already cleared!

Link sighed, and rubbed his temples. He was frustrated, but there was no reason to take it out on people that weren't responsible for it. He took a deep breath, trying to calm his nerves a little, and then heard Meallan's warning about the people in black coats. He raised an eyebrow, and focused his attention on the girl. "What kind of weird things? Do you think they're dangerous?"

You'd be hard pressed to find anyone that wasn't frustrated about being stuck here, everyone had lives they had to get back too. all the more reason for Sora to find the way out. Making new friends here was great, Sora more than anybody knew the importance of friendship in hard times, but it still didn't change the fact that they were trapped here.

Sora crossed his arms and frowned again, "Organization XIII. They are dangerous. I've been up against them before, and I thought I had defeated them, but..." Here they were, apparently the ones behind all this.

Typically, Larxene would have raised an eyebrow and smirked visibly at the stress Link was experiencing, but since she had to be kind, sweet, and...so sympathetic, she merely frowned in unease Hopefully, it didn't come out sarcastically. She really wanted to laugh. But such is the art of acting. Shame they won't be getting out of Paixao any time soon. Link would have been alerted of the Organization sooner later, so that factor wasn't a loss. All she needed was to implant an idea. A sort of target. "I guess...it really is sad. But there's not much else we can do. Is there?"

She looked down for a moment, and eyed them both, scratching her temple. "Organization XIII really are something. But I heard you should be more careful with the individual members themselves. They are different. Like, I know there's one guy not even the Organization could keep their influence on. Who knows what he's planning..."

Wonderful. Link gets trapped in another world, and it seems to have it's own set of problems and dangers. He kicked himself for being so surprised. With his luck, anything terrible could happen.

"I'll keep a look out for them then." Link really didn't know what to expect from this so-called Organization XIII. All he knew now was exactly what Meallan and Sora just told him. He didn't know anything about their influence over Paixao, or exactly what made them so dangerous. Hopefully, keeping his guard up would keep him out of too much trouble.

Link's attention once more focused on Meallan. "What do you mean? Do you think he's more dangerous than the rest?" Link almost preferred the situation in Hyrule. At least then he was only after one guy, not a whole group of people. Then again, the monsters weren't too fun to deal with, but at least they were easy to spot. From what it sounded like, the Organization members just looked like normal people. They could be anywhere.

"What do you mean?" Sora parroted Link, someone here who was supposedly outside the influence of the Org? That threw Sora a bit off guard, and he wanted to know just what the girl knew about that.

"What do I mean? You mean you haven't heard it before?" Larxene inquired, pretending to blink in surprise as if that was supposed to be known universally. Honestly, she never expected this sort of influence on her part. It made sense: she was a good girl now, after all. No hidden agenda. All she had to do was implant an idea into their heads, and it would grow. She placed a finger on her chin, "going into thought" as she gazed at them both seriously. "Usually, there are members of those people in black coats who are worse than others. Like I said. And...you can't trust gossip much, but there's suppose to be this guy with pink hair and a scythe or something that went against the leader. He planned a coup and everything! The last one got him kicked out, I think. It looks good at first, yet people say that he wants the power for himself. Then there's this 'Keyblade' weird stuff going on. I forgot his name...what was it?..."

She took pause to think, pouting her mouth as she supposedly tried to recall this man's name. Who she did not know at all ♥. Oh, this was probably the most fun she had in a while. "...Maxrulia?"

"I've only been here for a little while. I'm still not sure where everything is." Link had finally managed to learn how to pull up the map on his journal thing, and he used it to the best of his ability. He had yet to memorize the layout of this place though.

The Hylian listen intently. Really? A guy with pink hair? He couldn't be that hard to miss, especially if he was still wearing the black coat that Meallan had mentioned. The mention of a 'keyblade' also seemed interesting, but he pushed that out of his head. The problems in this place ran a lot deeper than he figured. Perhaps this keyblade thing had something to do with it. In any case, he'd just have to watch his step. "I'll keep a lookout for him." Link hoped he wouldn't be the one to run into this guy. He had to save his strength for when he got back to Hyrule. Still, his skill level was not close to where it should be for battling Ganondorf, so perhaps running in to him wouldn't be such a bad thing after all...

Sora listened to what the girl had to say, making a mental note about all the stuff she was explaining... then she mentioned the Keyblade. That threw Sora into a bit of a panic, though he tried not to show it. But what did she know, what sort of rumors and gossip about the Keyblade, and by extension, about him had been spread around this city?

"What about the Keyblade?" Sora said, "What do you know?"

"It would be good for anyone to keep a look-out. Thankfully, you appear to be a fighter," she responded, in agreement to Link and to his overall look. Not that she truthfully cared for his well-being. She just needed to drive this conversation the way she wanted to, and once that was done, she would leave this borefest. Sora was going to be the primary tool because of his connections; what she was saying was going to reach the right people. Link...she needed more idea on. His powers, what he was capable of.

What she was doing now was for lau~ghs. This wasn't in her soon-to-be plans, but she was curious on the outcome. If everything turned out positive, then...

Larxene was suddenly brought back from her thoughts when she heard Sora's voice, not predicting that he was going to act so defensively when she mentioned the Keyblade. He didn't want anyone knowing? About it? About him? She opted to go for shock and anxiousness as Meallan for this case, rubbing one arm with her hand as she eyed the ground again. "Well, not much. Just that it's a magical weapon. Very important or something. Why do you ask?"

She stared at him inquisitively by that point.

Link's attention also focused on Sora. Perhaps in this place, the 'keyblade' or whatever was like the Master Sword in Hyrule. It was a stretch, but Link kept quiet, waiting for the other boy to respond. So far, no one had recognized the sword he carried, and he thought it best to keep it that way for now, especially with this 'organization' on the loose.
