Blood trailed along the wall as he dragged himself across it. It had never occurred to him he would lose, the thought didn’t exist. It wasn’t that he’d underestimated Sora it was that he was so sure of himself. However the keyblade wielder had won, taking down even his trump card and now he was limping away, trying to stay conscious long enough to find a place to hide and rest. All his careful planning, and his hopes for taking the organization were now lost. The others were all gone, defeated and reduced back to nothing. He groaned feeling his limbs aching. He just needed some rest and then he’d be able to think, be able to still make his plans work somehow. With the pain dulling his senses he was only vaguely aware of a presence behind him before he heard the voice, the voice that chilled him.
“Did you miss me, darling?”
He felt his body stiffen and turned, his eyes widening when he met those green eyes; then the searing pain in his gut. “Vexen.” He hissed.
The blond stared at him, his eyes cold, the blond hair that had once been long now short and frayed from being burned off, his cloak singed and charred in so many places. He shifted his hand, the ice shard he held pressed into Marluxia’s stomach making the assassin cry out. “Did you think I would just die so easily?” he growled and pushed him against the wall, holding the ice shard firm.
Marluxia cried out but grinned as the blood trickled from his mouth. “I knew you wouldn’t be killed so easily.” He tried to laugh but it was more of a weak cough.
Vexen glared hard at him. “Enough. Don’t think you can play off your deceit with clever words this time.”
The other man stared at him, seeing the fire in those green eyes that had caught him so many times. Vexen was angry, livid but he was glorious like that. He still grinned, feeling the shard shift again and send another jolt of pain through him. If Vexen pulled it from him he’d bleed out.
The blond leaned closer, pushing the shard in deeper. “Don’t look so smug or I will make this hurt more then I originally intended.”
“Oh my...you’re really mad, aren’t you?” He chuckled and then whimpered at the pain; he was getting lightheaded.
Vexen grit his teeth and snarled. “You stabbed me in the back.”
“I missed though.” The assassin argued.
“Lucky for me.” Vexen slammed his other fist on the wall near Marluxia’s head. “You dare grin at me like that after what you did?” He had been sure there was something, some connection. He had given some form of trust to the man, offered up more of himself then just that and when his back was turned Marluxia had proved what a treacherous snake he was by trying to kill him. “You have lied to me for the last time.”
“Ah, but Vexen,” Marluxia smiled wider, his eyes narrow, “The real problem you must decipher is what did I lie about?”
Vexen growled. “Marluxia!” He yanked his hand back the ice shard covered in blood as he raised it to strike again.
Marluxia groaned when the shard was ripped from him, feeling his vision going out of focus and looked up at Vexen, never letting the grin leave him.
The blond’s hand fell and there was an echoing shatter through the hall as the blade was crushed against the wall near Marluxia’s neck. “DAMN YOU!”
The pink haired man let out a chuckled and reached up, a bloody hand running up Vexen’s burned cheek. “Vexen.” He leaned forward, pressing his lips to the man, closing his eyes for a moment as the heat left his body. When he pulled away he was already losing focus except for those fierce green eyes.
Vexen’s expression was something broken, his glare weak and shattered like the shard of ice that had cut his life away. “I hate you, Marluxia.”
He grinned at that. “I love you too, Vexen.” It was all the breath he had and he felt his legs give out. Falling forward he could hear a strangled groan escape the other man, was sure arms held him but everything seemed so far away.
“Damn you, Marluxia.” Vexen whimpered, his hands shaking. In one stupid angry moment he had totally robbed himself of the last hope of life and with it any will to fight. The hall froze over, the cold wind sweeping through the remains of castle oblivion and he held the quickly chilling body near him as everything went totally dark and existence, or what he had left of it, ceased to be.

Inspired by this song.

Lie To Me (Acoustic version)
~By 12 Stones

A candle burns away
The ashes full of lies
I gave my soul to you
You cut me from behind

Nowhere to run and nowhere to hide
You're scared of the truth, I'm tired of the lies
Cause who I am
Is where you want to be

Don't act like an angel
You've fallen again
You're no superhero
I've found in the end

So lie to me once again
And tell me everything will be alright
Lie to me once again
And ask yourself before we say good bye
Well good bye
Was it worth it in the end?

You said you were there for me
You wouldn't let me fall
All the times I shared with you
Were you even there at all?

Nowhere to run and nowhere to hide
You're scared of the truth, I'm tired of the lies
Cause who I am
Is where you want to be

Don't act like an angel
You've fallen again
You're no superhero
I've found in the end

So lie to me once again
And tell me everything will be alright
Lie to me once again
And ask yourself before we say good bye
Well good bye
Was it worth it in the end?

Why'd you have to up and run away
A million miles away
I want to close my eyes and make believe
That I never found you

Just when I put my gaurd away
It's the same old story
You left me broken and betrayed
It's the same old story

Don't act like an angel
You've fallen again
You're no superhero
I've found in the end

So lie to me once again
And tell me everything will be alright
Lie to me once again
And ask yourself before we say good bye
Well good bye
Was it worth it in the end?

Lie to me once again
It's the same old story
Lie to me once again
It's the same old story

Was it worth it in the end?

It's soo sad...I love what you did with the picture though. Their eyes and the blood really stands out...

Vexen loks pretty hawt with short hair. Not that he didn't in the first place but...ya know what I mean ;]

And all I could hear was her melodious laughter.
And all I could feel was the whisper of the wind.
And all I could see was an angels smile.
As the heavens painted her wings the color of a rainbow.

Thank you. I have my depressing morbid times and this just struck me.

I was originally going to do the pic in full color and then liked the sketch so much I didn't want to overwhelm it and stuck to black and white with hints of color.

Vexen with short hair....that image struck me the most and I was so happy he came out as hot as I wanted him to. >3

I think he's rather sexy, especially all pissed like that.

Thanks, I was pretty happy with the decision.
