[Kingdom Hearts] Shrubberies [4/5]

(4/5)
Title: Shrubberies
Rating: PG
Disclaimer: Kingdom Hearts is, most obviously, owned by big name companies and not by a girl sitting at a laptop on her bedroom floor.
Summary: In which Vexen and Lexaeus find themselves discussing shrubberies.
A/N: Guess where they are yet? I bet. Not anywhere Disney, I will tell you that much. HA.



This had never happened before. That he was certain of. A person had to be really unlucky to end up on a world like this.

“All right, run that by me one more time,” Vexen ordered, looking at Lexaeus like he had lost his mind.

“Would I be making this up?” Lexaeus responded skeptically.

“What sort of loony people demanded trees in exchange for information?”

“Shrubberies,” corrected Lexaeus calmly. “Look on the bright side. It’s not as if they asked for a sacrifice or anything.”

“Sacrifice would be easy,” Vexen muttered. “They want it with a white fence? Why don’t we plant them a garden while we’re at it?”

“Don’t give them any ideas.”

Vexen tapped his fingers crossly against his arm. “Well this is lovely. Why must we play their game? Surely we can find out sources of information.”

“Because that peasant hauling mud was a fantastic help,” Lexaeus pointed out sarcastically.

“I — Look — ”

“Along with those women in that castle. And that annoying knight. And — ”

“Okay, all right, I admit we came across some dead ends,” Vexen replied, frowning.

Lexaeus was still going, however. “— and those peculiar men with their strange theories on swallows — ”

“So what makes you think these people will be any better?” Vexen snapped at last.

“I don’t. I believe this whole world is off its rocker.”

Vexen didn’t argue with that. It was quite possible th at they were the only sane men there.

“It’s down to this,” Lexaeus continued, ready to sort things out. “We either find ourselves a shrubbery, or abandon this insane piece of rock.”

The sound of hooves rose over Vexen’s answer, and the two Nobodies looked through the trees towards the source of the sound. Several men passed nearby, seemingly skipping in a very odd way as they went. A couple more men followed, clicking coconuts together. Vexen turned to Lexaeus as the strangers “rode” out of sight.”

“We are getting off this ludicrous world and we are getting out it now.”
