Author's Note: This is a one-shot fic written entirely out of boredom… I was sitting on the bus on my way to Italy and inspiration kinda just popped up I hope you like it! Please R&R!
E V O L U T I O NLately, I've taken up the hobby of observing my brothers evolve.
Like Raziel once said, over time, we become less human and more 'divine'. Well, if 'divine' means 'ugly', then I wholeheartedly agree with him. Anyway, I think he took this divinity thing a wee bit to far when he grew those wings. Not like it's done him any good… The strange thing is, I actually felt sorry for him when Kain ripped off his wings and had him thrown in the Abyss. A little…
But enough about him. Moving on, Turel doesn't seem to change much. Except for the ears. They seem to get bigger every time I see him. Maybe it's because he's telling lies all the time, like in that story about the wooden puppet. The thing is, he would do everything to get praised by Kain. He's more 'daddy's boy' than Raziel ever was.
On the other hand, Dumah grows bigger altogether. Last time I saw him he was nearly twice as big as I was, and that was too months ago. But it seems to me that the larger he gets, the more dumb he becomes. Maybe there's a correlation between the terms: Dumah, dumb… he he.
Then there's Rahab. Now this guy is the weirdest of the whole lot. First of all, his skin is blue, and water doesn't burn him. Then, he's got gills… Trust me, I saw them. And he's also got membranes between his fingers. Kinda like toads. Eww…
Finally, Zephon seems to grow a 'crown' even bigger than Kain's, and this makes him more infatuated by the day. I hate that guy, so enough talking about him. Just thinking about him makes me mad.
As for me… what can I say? My skin is falling off, my hands are growing and are starting to look horribly out of proportion, and my legs are slowly turning into a tail. I never was pretty sight, but now I'm seriously starting to hate myself.
With this 'evolution' came a unique special ability for each of us. Or, better said, a useless unique special ability. Turel's voice is getting louder and louder, Dumah can run in circles very fast, Rahab can swim, Zephon can climb walls, and I can phase through grates and stuff. Duh…
Okay, I think I've done enough thinking for one night. I'll go do something constructive now, like finding a mortal and drinking his or her blood. Hmm… come to think of it, you look tasty enough. Stay where you are, I'm coming to you now!
Sincerely yours, Melchiah.
