[color=7bcdc8][b][h2] Zel-Ghin [/h2][/b][/color]

Zel-Ghin had met Rhylaen's gaze head on. He didn't like what he saw or heard. The girls back at the academy had been worshipping the ground he walked on the moment he had beaten up the other guys. His urge to kiss Rhylaen diminishing until it had become completely unappealing to him. It was a pity. Both her and the bluehaired girl were eye candy. But seems they were all hard candy. The bluehaired one, Serah seems to have wanted to say something to him aswell. But that old man, Lorenzo and Ritsu had gotten involved and ordered them to keep it down. 

[color=7bcdc8][i]'You are one salty old man. You are just sour because you don't get a lolipop. It would probably break your teeth. Whatever. These girls all seem like such a let down. Just coming here has so far been a massive waste of time. I'm annoyed. So very annoyed. My brother is right. Just seeing all of this. Humans are the source of chaos in the world. We are all broken beyond fixing. Or is it a feature of all of us?'[/i][/color] Zel-Ghin mused in his head, his focus slightly at the handheld game he was preoccupied with. So far none had taken that from him. But seeing how Ritsu and Lorenzo were in seemingly a sour mood, perhaps that wasn't such a far off possibility. 

[color=7bcdc8][i]'...and I am the result of their greed and desire of wanting to kill each other. You made me this way. You cannot put the genie back in the lamp. The jack in the box.. Pretend the monster isn't under the bed, but knowing it is. Fate is a curious thing, to go with the flow and see where the water takes you. A wolf does what a wolf does. Why should I care about anything other than fulfilling the role given to me? My creators had a dream, my brother has a dream. I don't dream. Dreams are for those who are sleeping. I am awake. I have no dreams.'[/i][/color] He blew some air through his nose, his eyes wandering from the small gaming device and up to the ongoing simulation. 

His brother. His genetic inferior were still in there fighting. What his older brother lacked in raw physical prowess and piloting, he made well up for in other ways. Mema-Ka always liked to talk about destiny. Zel-Ghin had just shook his head at the idea that things were not preordained. That humans had the choice to forge their own future. Hope was such a tease. All the time his brother had spent reading the history of mankind, all the battles, all the philosophies of men and women long dead. Ever since they had left the lab. His brother had been seeking. Looking for the eden, the paradise, the utopia. But there were no such place in this world. In any world. There were no place for War God Zel-Ghin in such a world… conflict was something that existed everywhere. As long as people would exist.

Regardless Zel-Ghin knew he had to follow. Fate was guiding him towards his purpose in life. Whatever, wherever that may be. The younger twin paused his game and slid the console back into his jacket pocket, looking at the simulation in front of him. He was silent and watched the scenes play out in the simulation, various clashes and explosions.


[color=7bcdc8][i]'The blond idiot. You cannot protect anything. To think that woman would go down to someone like you. How absolutely laughable. You deserve one-another. So you think you can protect Elora? I think I will put your power to the test, pilot of the Shiva.'[/i][/color]

[color=7bcdc8][i]'That redhaired pretender knight class trying to mutiny. How dare you try order my brother around like that. Know your place. Rebel scum.'[/i][/color]

[color=7bcdc8][i]'You would try to taint my framewerk further by merging it with your pathetic no-name grunt? Hmph. I suppose trash belongs with other trash. A fitting punishment for your failure Squid. Perhaps after some encouragement and modifications you will perform better. I don't need you to pull me down to the level of these people... I was made to excel.'[/i][/color]

[color=7bcdc8][i]'Seems the Mango squad leader is not so bad after all. Still not my type... where's the fun in that one?'[/i][/color]

[color=7bcdc8][i]'That bluehaired guy. What is he playing at now? I know a cheat when I see it.'[/i][/color]

[color=7bcdc8][i]'Elora. You forgot the lolipop and my brother seems to have forgotten you. It all comes full circle. I might forgive you for a kiss.'[/i][/color]

Zel-Ghin's eyes then wandered away from the simulation and landing on Lucius, to whom he wrinkled his nose at, then moved on to Stella who he let out a slight scoff at when he saw her pick up Serah. The more he watched the other people, the more alone he felt. He also noticed Jake, but wasn't sure what to make of him. He was unreadable to the younger twin. But perhaps it were due to the helmet. Then there were Aurora who had seemingly taken out the robot woman and her big sluggish giant of a framewerk. That framewerk of hers had potential, it had also been the one to take him. No. Not him. Take the squid out. Perhaps he should take it for a ride himself and show her how that thing would be in the right hands. How hard could it be. He was after all made in a lab to fight.

What was taking his brother so long? He had to hurry up, so they could go elsewhere before he would get sick by watching what he could only suspect were some display of friendship. Zel-Ghin held his expression blank. What use were there in having friends? What even did it all mean? He didn't know, these things had happened at the academy between various other cadets. He assumed they were pairing up because they felt they belonged to the same tier on the tierlist.

He had watched them many times from the highest floor of the academy, peering out the window how the other cadets went off in pairs of two or more, sometimes they would be picked up by a vehicle driven by their genetic contributors. Their parents. Parents. Another word which held no meaning to him. He didn't personally know who had given him and his twin their genetic code. Faceless shadows.

Mema-Ka had called one of the scientists "Mother" which had aided them in their escape of the old lab. She had often been present in the background for the various tests, never taking part in applying the contents of the syringes or the other things. He had adopted the same calling for her as his twin, but he still didn't understand the meaning. She had given him a game however. And for that he was thankful, that and assisting them to leave that place. A fateful encounter.

Father? Unknown. Mother? Unknown. Brothers? One known. Friends? None. Games? A few.

Zel-Ghin raised his arm abit and looked at the palm of his hand. Just what was flowing in his veins? Would he ever find out? Following the flow of the river seemed like the only path he could take, and follow his brother wherever he would try to get to. He could hear his words in his mind.


[color=82ca9d][i]'Zel-Ghin. If you join me in my quest. I will promise you that you will find the answers you seek. It will take some time, but trust me. You will. I cannot do this without you...'[/i][/color]
