You walk into a training room, where the trials are to be held. When you enter, you find it to be picth dark. Suddenly the doors slammed shut behind you, and the lights flash on. After a few seconds of adjusting your eyes, you find Xail, Saix, and Xigbar before you. You take a deep breath. The trials are about to begin...

---

Illatris arrived in the maze awaiting something to happen to her. Hearing about the earlier trials, she expected everything possible to be placed upon her.

Saix crossed his arms. "Not another..."

Xail smirked at Illatris, "Are you ready then?"

Illatris nodded. "Yes."

Saix's eyes went wide when he got a closer look at her. "...Not my sister...How did she get here?"

Xigbar looked at Saix and chuckled. "Hoo-boy. This should be a good one."

"If she survives..." Saix thought for a moment and turned his eyes to Xigbar. "...I am going to have you fight her."

Illatris overheard the conversation and laughed. "I'd rather fight you," she said in a somewhat stern voice.

"...I can only wonder why..." Saix replied.

Xail looked at Saix, "Your choice. You want to fight or shall we have Xigbar fight, since he's done NOTHING so far."

"Since he has done nothing...Xigbar can fight her," Saix said as he darkly laughed behind his lips.

"Errr...You are just affraid of my power, Saix." Illatris folded her arms.

"No...I am not, Illatris." Saix dimmed his eyes.

"Enough." Xail said, "You have 30 minutes to get to the middle of the maze."

Xigbar smiled. "I say we let her choose who she'll fight when she gets there."

Xail smirked at him, "You're just trying to get out of fighting her is all."

Xigbar crossed his arms. "I am not. I'm just trying to give Saix some quality time with his sister," he said in a 'matter-of-fact' tone.

"Riiiiiiiiight..."

Saix sighed. "Very well...We'll let her choose."

Illatris nodded at Xail and continued her way into the maze; keeping her eye open for anything that might come her way.

She finds... a dead. And the way out slames shut.

Illatris only grinned and walked through the wall. "Think better."

The second she leaves the room, she falls through a trapped door.

"What!?" she used her powers to toss herself through the wall behind her and stood on one of the lower levels. She continued her way as she drew her sword. She leaped onto another level and made it back to where she had just been. She left and came down another one of the maze's hallways.

Everything became picth black and dozens of heartless appeared

"Oh great," Illatris said as she united her blue electric powers with her sword. "This should be fun." She began to slash her sword at them. Once the heartless were dispatched, she continued her way through the maze, hoping she would soon reach the end.

Saix folded his arms in amusement. Not bad... he thought.

When she reaches the end of the hallway, there are 3 doors.

"Hmm." Xigbar smiled. "The old 'one door is right and the others are your imdending doom' trick."

Illatris gave an irritated sigh as she thought about the doors and which one might be the right one to choose. Illatris entered the one on the right.

Twighthorn as well as hundreds of nobodies appeared.

Illatris growled and backed up out of the doorway. She then opened the one to the far left, hoping that this might actually be the right one.

A huge firey claw came out and snacthed her up.

Illatris growled, trying to pull away from the claw. She held her sword even tighter within her hand and brought the sword down upon the claw.

There was a roar of displeasure, then Illatris was thrown across the room, and hit a wall with a thud!

Illatris gave a swift cry of pain before she brought up enough energy to stike at the claw repeatedly.

The claw gave one last swipe at her before reteating back into the door.

Illatris did her best to avoid the claw's attack, but she ended up getting scratched upon her arm. She growled agian and headed back out of the door. Then she opened the middle door, knowing that this must have been the right one.

It wa picth black inside and was freezing cold.

Illatris didn't mind the cold that much and she loved the dark, so she entered through the door without the slightest hesitation.

The door closed behind her, and it grew colder by the second.

Illatris ran through as fast as she could so she could reach the end in time.

Soon hundreds of ice-based feinds surrounded her.

Illatris ignited her sword in the blue lightning again and began to swing at the fiends, killing a few and attacking some more. The ones she slew, had the shards of their body crash to the floor in millions of pieces.

After a few minutes a door opens, letting in light.

Illatris killed what was left of them, but got slit on her other arm from one of their attacks, before she left for the open door. Running as fast as she could, she got to the door and came through it, hoping that it was the end at last.

She reached the middle with 18 minutes to spare, "Good." Xail said, "Now you'll either fight Xigbar, or Saix. Your choice."

"I think I'll save the fight with my brother for later," Illatris laughed. Saix looked relieved. "Xibar, I want to fight you!"

Xigbar rolled his shoulders to loosen himself up and smiled. "Okay, Kid. You asked for it." He readied his gun for battle. "Personally, I would've picked your bro. He's easier to beat."

Saix growled. "For some reason... I hope she defeats you, Xigbar..."

Illatris laughed. "Get down here, Xigbar! I have no time for waiting!"

Xigbar laughed, too. "Hmm. Really? I think we've got plenty of time left. But.. if that's what you want..." He disappeared in swirl of blackish blue, soon reappearing on lower ground.

"It's about time you got down here. I was beginning to worry that you were going to chicken off," she laughed. Saix laughed behind his lips in amusement.

Another black portal opened up where Xigbar had once stood near Saix and another Organization member stepped out, hood up. He crossed his arms across his chest. "I thought I heard the sound of a challenge. Too bad, since Xiggy's down there, it won't last long."

Saix peered over at the cloaked being and grinned before returning his gaze down upon the two.

"Who's the girl?" the man asked Saix.

"My sister," Saix replied with a slight growl.

The man chuckled. "Ohh...that's why she got so far in the trial." He looked at Saix. "She must have the same drive that you do."

"Perhaps..." Saix said, looking down at Illatris with a dark face.

"Brother-sister feud?" the man asked lightly. "You two don't seem happy to see each other."

"Indeed..." it was the only thing Saix intended to say; he was still furious with Xigbar.

He chuckled. "Cheer up, buddy. She'll be an underling, and there's no guarantee she's gonna survive a month here. We don't exactly have the safest jobs here." He smirked. "And what if she runs into Mr. Keyblade?"

Saix morbidly laughed. "Perhaps that should be her next task..."

"I'm sure Xail wouldn't have a problem with it. After all, we've already lost two of our punching bags..." he grumbled.

Saix only laughed in reply.

Xigbar hesitated to hear the conversation above him. He shrugged it off, growing impatient with waiting and shot a few bullets towards Illatris. He readied himself for defense.

Illatris vanished in the darkness, reappearing at the other end of the room. Her right hand ignited in light blue sparks and then, she threw the electricity at Xigbar in a ball of static.

Xigbar smiled, all too well prepared for an attack. The electricity came close to him and he disappeared. He fired more bullets at her as he reappeared, suspended from the ceiling.

Illatris growled, dodging the bullets as she dashed to the side and threw more balls of electricity at him.

Xigbar grinned another sheepish grin before disappearing into the ceiling. He was slower that time, one of the electric orbs sizzling off the tip of his ponytail bfore he could pull it up with the rest of his body. He appeared again looking down at it with mock sadness.

Illatris morbidly laughed, throwing another ball of sparks. She began to watch him carefully for his next movement.

Xigbar looked up as the orbs came racing towards him. He shot at them in an attempt to deflect them.

Illatris just threw more of the blue electric orbs at him, knowing that he would soon run out of bullets.

Xigbar laughed, obviously enjoying their fight. He dodged the orbs before disappearing. This time, he didn't show up.

Illatris blinked and then prepared herself for Xigbar's next strike, no telling where he might pop out from.

Xigbar smiled to himself, looking down at Illatris from his perch. 'Wonder how long it'll take her to relize where I am...' After reloading, he pointed one of his rifles leisurely at her. The shower of bullets seemed to come from nowhere, all of them zooming directly towards the female nobody.

Hearing the gunfire, Illatris suddenly vanished only to reappear on the other side of the room with a grin upon her face. "Nice try..."

Xigbar growled in frustration before reappearing again.

The hooded Organization member beside Saix laughed lightly. "Looks like she's giving him a run for his money."

"Indeed..." Saix said calmly, but then gave off a grin as he closed his eyes. "She's my sister... what would you expect?"

Illatris sighed. "Loser."

"I don't know," the hooded man said. He chuckled. "Maybe a complete opposite of you?"

Xigbar smiled at Illatris. "You shouldn't count your chickens before they hatch. It isn't exactly over yet, kid."

"Geez... That was a sure retarded phrase... It annoys me," Illatris chuckled. "But... oh well." She grinned sinisterly. "Having fun yet?"

Xigbar laughed. "Hmm. I guess that was pretty cliche." He smiled back at her. "But the fun hasn't even begun," and with that, he vanished.

Illatris raised an eyebrow. "Oh, this again? How anoying... but... whatever..."

There came a chuckle from the hooded man. "Hmm, yelling about trivial things. Who does that remind me of?" he asked sarcastically, glancing at Saix. "I'm not entirely sure the Organization can handle two of you."

Saix only grinned.

Xigbar smiled even though it couldn't be seen. "I'm a pretty annoying guy," he said, sounding almost proud. "I like to repeat my attacks. Just a little tip for you. Might help you beat me." His tone was one of mockery.

"Eh... Not like I need that to be known again... I already knew it, jerk," Illatris said, bitterly and vanished.

Xigbar blinked. 'She's vanished, too,' he thought to himself, wondering what to do next.

Illatris pops up behind Xigbar and grins. "Did ya miss me?" She laughed and kicked him hard in the back.

A small "oof!" escaped Xigbar's throat as he stumbled forward a bit. He rubbed his back where she kicked him before disappearing again. "Don't worry, kid. I didn't miss you for a second." He reappered upside down, accross the room and casually shot at her a few more times.

Illatris raised an eyebrow. "AGAIN?" In a poof of smoke, illatris vanished to escape the flying bullets that no sooner hit the wall behind her, yet, one of the bullets scraped the side of her cheek; the blood dripping to the floor. She reappeared behind Xigbar, wrapping her arms around his neck, choking him. "Fun, fun, fun. you're going to pay for what you did to my face, dick."

Xigbar tried not to struggle, fearing that her grasp would be more painful if he did. "A little touchy about the looks, are we?" he asked, jokingly.

Illatris growled. "You shouldn't be joking around when you know you're going to die." Her had began to glow blue as sparks emanated from her hand. She seized his neck sending the electricity through his body. Laughing she enjoyed ever moment of it. "I hope you like this. I've been saving it just for you."

She was jump-kicked off Xigbar, by Xail, "Sorry to spoil you're fun, but times up. You passed."

Xigbar chuckled as he rubbed his throat. "Welcome to the Organization, kid."

Illatris sighed, a bit disappointed that she couldn't continue. It was all fun to her. She grinned and nodded. "Soo... what do you want me to do now?" illatris was a bit curious, wondering what they MIGHT have next for her.
