Rnnnnn. Rnnnnn. Rnnnnn.

The alarm broke the silence of Eli's room.  The high-pitched screech pulsated with the power to wake even the hardiest of sleeps and Eli was no different. In fact, no matter how many times Eli heard the alarm, he was always startled by it. This time was particularly bad - upon waking, his face warped and contorted. It opened in strips, revealing a gaping hole surrounded in oozing holes as saliva dribbled out. By the time he was lucid, his face had already reverted to normal. He looked at the briefing on the screen. Something about being at the auditorium at 6 AM. Eli wasn't exactly the most awake, so most of the wording was lost at him. He glanced over at his clock - a plain white clock with seemingly empty hands - pointed at 4 and 3. It was either 4:15 or 3:20. Either way, Eli had enough time to get ready.

Taking his time, Eli removed his blanket - being sure to neatly fold it against his bed - and walked to his closet. It was a dreamland for a fashion genius like him. Jackets, shirts, and pants filled the closet. After some choice deliberations, Eli chose his classic ensemble: turtle neck, jacket with a fur collar, sweater vest, corset, pants, socks, boots. All in some shade of brown or red. It looked good on him. So much so that, even though he wore it often, he spent an extraordinary amount of time looking in a full-body mirror. He was good to go - his hair was in order, his clothes were on point, he just needed to greet the guard on the way out.

[color=e89b81]"Hey Ray! Nice seeing you,"[/color] he said as he waltzed out of his room, [color=e89b81]"how's the wife and kids? Didn't your son have a baseball game coming up? Tell him that he'll do fine and to just relax. And tell your wife I said hi."[/color] The guard, understandably, didn't acknowledge anything. He wasn't Ray. In fact, nobody was sure [i]who[/i] this [i]Ray[/i] was. Eli had probably made Ray up to get out of listening to guards be rude, but nobody was completely sure.

By the time Eli reached the auditorium, the majority of his sibs had already arrived. He looked around and saw Asmodeus, Alma, and Daniel all sitting together. Daniel, more or less, being gross and covered in blood (bad fashion choice). With a hop, skip, and a stumble, Eli chose a folding chair in front of them all. He quickly spun around, sitting backwards on the chair. [color=e89b81]"Hekyekyekyekyek. What's up with all of you?"[/color] He had said before glancing over to Daniel. Daniel was quite messed up this morning, what with missing lips and shark teeth. Not wanting to be undone, Eli quickly transformed. His head splayed open into five segments, as if a flower bloomed from his thin stem neck. Sharp teeth covered each strip as they danced around on a whim. Just as quickly as his face split open, it closed.
