And that night, the boy sat in his cage, as Alec did approach him. His deep blue eyes opened, as the chains against his neck and body retained him. The pain throughout his body causing mild burns so he was unable to move. Chained and unable to move as the guards outside watched Alec step into the burning cauldron. His mane fell over his face as he raised his head and pulled his paws over each other. He smiled, "Do I get to come out now?" he asked in his innocent tone. No matter how you looked at it, he was only a year old, he was a child, a corrupt child. As Alec sat down calmly. He answered the child.
"Only for a little while. You'll be tending to my twin brother tonight." The grin on the child's face vanished and he pulled his head back down with a flick of his tail. Alec moved closer to his face. "I'll let you out for one night if you help me Ryu, I know what you do, it's the same as I do so I have no problem with it." Ryouta lifted an eyebrow and gave a sigh. With his smile returned he flicked his head back, and Alec told the guards to release his chains. The skinny small wolf was half of the king's size, as he stood and walked beside him as if his hurt was nothing. In all honesty he had far been used to it. As Alec lead Ryouta to the healers den where his brother was. Alec entered as Ryouta stayed close behind not making eye contact with Deimos.

A throaty growl could be heard as soon as Alec and Ryu entered the gave. A female whimpered, and all grew silent again. Another growl was heard, this time louder, and then words were spoken. "Touch me again you wench, and I swear to god I will have your head! Test me, I will cleave it right off!" The female yelped in fear, and skittered back wards away from the male. As you came around the bend you would see a very curious scene indeed. The King was hovering back in one of the corners, in the darkest spot he could find. You could still see the blood dripping from his various wounds, and trailing out of his nose. It was apparent that he had regained consciousness a while ago, but now that he was awake it would be nearly impossible to get him to calm down. He was surrounded by the females, and could have easily been taken down because of their numbers, and the numerous wounds he attained. There were huge puncture wounds in his throat where the creature had grabbed him, and took both of the males over the edge.
Breathing hurt, but he refused to show weakness merely because his pride was hurt. A female tried to get close to him once more. "Sire, you may have internal bleeding... we have to treat you now, or you will surely die." As she approached him, Deimos snapped at her, and caught her by the snout. She yelped in pain, and took cover behind the other females. That was when Deimos noticed his brother entering with the brat that wouldn't talk to him. He arched an eyebrow at his brother, and spoke. "Really brother, it was kind of you to bring more to this gathering, but I'm fine." He knew it was the farthest thing from the truth, and any one could tell by just glancing at him. The females gazes quickly glanced from Deimos to Alec, awaiting his commands.

Alec didn't say or do anything as the female's swarmed over his brother. Honestly, he was a handful all in it's self. As the boy sat his side smiled at the others. If anything Ryouta was more scary then the twins if he were to be let lose again. He dragged his dark purple tongue over his fangs. As the female yelped and moved back, scaring the other females. One day, Deimos wouldn't be able to survive without these girls. As Deimos spoke, Alec rolled his eyes while Ryouta turned to the female Deimos had yapped at and starred at her. Trying to make her head implode on it's own. But Alec picked him up by the scruff and shoved him up farther. As Ryu pinned his ears back waving his mane across his face. "You don't look fine to me." The females began to clear the den. The one female with a bite mark on her muzzle whispered into Alec's ear the situation. His eyes widened for a moment but then narrowed as she finally left. Alec shook his head, "Honestly brother, taking on a full sized white Winlow. Are you trying to kill yourself?" Ryouta glared at Deimos with a scowl. Alec came forward and nudged the boy. "Remember your reward." Ryu rolled his eyes but then smiled.
"Well, if he says anything I don't like I can burn him" Ryouta giggled. As Alec glared at him, Ryu looked over at him and sighed. "Relax, I wouldn't survive much after if I did would I" He laughed. His crazy eyes rolling as he then returned to Deimos. Placing his paws gently on the ground, bringing up lava from the ground up. Dipping his paws into the lava, he cooled it enough for it to be pleasant. At least that was his powers to use. As he began to slather the lava paste over the skin of Deimos. The heat and pressure would help with pain and injuries. As Alec looked at Deimos. "Apart from your incident, I'll be going to a gathering soon, one of the higher ups from Sensuret invited me." Alec inquired. As Ryouta worked, grabbing herbs as he went. Hopefully Deimos wouldn't try to bite his head off.

As Alec spoke to Deimos about him not looking fine he allowed himself to glance over his wounds. He scowled at his wounds, but then looked up as he saw the female healer speaking to Alec. That sorry bitch. He saw his brothers optics widen considerately, and then narrowed dangerously on Deimos's broken form. As he spoke lyrics to him Deimos allowed his audits to fall to the sides with indignity. He was about to responded when he felt yet another gaze probing deep inside of his already broken body. He turned his multi hued gaze to the boy, and withheld a snarl. This was his brothers slave so he would behave. However, he didn't like how the slave thought he had the right to glare at Deimos as if he was the higher rank here. "The brute attacked me first. I was just protecting the packs most valuable hunter. Besides, I've never been one to back down from a fight. It engaged me first, what could I have done? Tried to flee from it? You know as well as I do that if a Winlow is hungry enough it won't stop at any length to get you in it's jowls."
He glanced toward Ryu as he approached him, but didn't say anything. He allowed the cooled lava to be slathered over his body, and perked his audits toward Alec. A gathering? His optics narrowed for a moment. And why was he not invited? What, was he the chopped liver of the twins? This wounded his pride even more, but he refused to say anything about it. He merely arched an eyebrow, and responded accordingly. "A gathering? And you're going by yourself? I know I've never been keen on crowds, but that doesn't mean I can't..." He trailed off, knowing it was useless. After all, he didn't receive an invitation. [b"Never mind. Watch your back though because I won't be there to watch it for you."
[/b] He murmured.[/blockquote][/blockquote]

Most esteemed hunter, he raised his head to think for a moment, oh yes, that bitch. Alec was not fond of Irena, but he let her live because of Deimos. He watched Ryouta as he worked across his brother. The boy had some deceiving looks, if anything he was a prize all in itself. Ryouta stopped for a moment and looked at Alec. "Continue what your doing, you can leave after your done, but be back after sunrise." Alec said as Ryouta smiled and continued. As if to say yes father or something of the sort. Mentally disturbed, he seemed to calm so pathetic. But, he loved to see things be ripped apart and explode. As Alec looked at his brother. "I know you aren't exactly keen on gatherings either, but I think I will be fine, it's only a few loners and pack wolves coming together not just Sensuret. Not like I have an interest in them anyway, their alpha is a female." Alec snorted. He was growing tired anyway, Alec needed to stretch his legs. Plus, maybe he'd find out something worth digging into, like starting a war to take over one of these packs.
Ryouta finished finally. Deimos looked like a fluffy monster though with the herbs around him. It made him want to laugh furiously, but he didn't as he looked to Alec with gleaming eyes. Alec nodded towards him and the boy bolted out the door suddenly. As the king came towards his brother and plucked the leaf off of his nose. "I want to see what this world has to offer. My children will be coming to this world soon. The first born will be my heir." He whispered.

After Ryu finished his job in slathering him in the muck, and took off running for the entrance, Deimos glanced at himself. "The kid made me look like a friggin poodle." He did suppose that it was better than being near death. As he spoke about it only being a few loners, and other pack wolves, Deimos still had an uneasy feeling. Aria, the spirit that he had met with, had warned him of something that was completely unnerving. However, he didn't want his brother to worry. He should go out and have fun. Deimos still stuck with his warning, though. "Things are changing in the world, Alec. Dangers are there that aren't seen. I've... spoken to a spirit that rose some concerns. They aren't important, probably won't have anything to do with the party tonight. I still want you to be aware of your surroundings. I know we're supposed to be big bad rulers who don't need any one, but this I know is true. I wouldn't underestimate pack wolves, or loners." He spoke softly, his tone taking upmost urgency in his words.
Then his brother approached him, and plucked the leaf from his nose. He arched an eyebrow as his tone lowered, and spoke about his children. Deimos hadn't slowed down enough to actually think about settling down. He nodded his crown, and hesitantly began to speak once more. "I understand. I am proud of you, Alec. I don't even have an heir. I don't have any heir's in the near future. I know that your seed will be a good heir to our throne, though. That is, if I don't ever reproduce." He said just as softly, wishing to wipe all this muck off of him, but refrained from doing so.

No one could fathom how much the brothers cared for each other. Through thick and thin, they were best friends in a world of chaos, and they were run by it. Alec met eye contact with his brother, it wasn't like he enjoyed leaving his brother alone. As he laughed a little at his poodle comment. Well it was his fault for being attacked by the Winlow. But, it seemed as if the second form of Irena had killed it, but Deimos had not seen it. Alec set his paws down as he looked easily at his brother. Proud of him hmm. "You shouldn't be so proud my dear brother, one day you will have your own sons to take care of our home. But until then, we look after each other to get past the scars formed." Alec said in a sharp and soft tone. Yes, of all the scars they had, of all the things they did separate and together, they were the twin kings of Erebus.
"Besides, we have plenty of servant women to choose from, not to mention that twun girl of yours. So, it's never too late or soon to choose what you want your sons to look like." He chuckled as he stood up and flicked his tail. It was true after all, there was no hesitation needed for everything they had.

Deimos had to smirk as he told him he shouldn't be so proud. Alec knew just as well as Deimos knew that their father had raised them to be proud. It was in Deimos's nature, and blood. He was perhaps more proud than his brother, and to some extent it could be a bad thing. Pride could be the down fall of a kingdom, but it could also be an excellent resource if you had the right amount of balance. Deimos, and Alec balanced each other out. "Brother, you know as well as I do that I'm a very proud wolf. My pride tonight was hurt because I lost a battle... the first battle in many years. Do you remember our very first battle?" Deimos asked softly, his optics wavering on his brother for a few moments. "It had been with our father. You and I on a team, and he still handed us our asses." Deimos laughed at the memory. "We tried to humble ourselves, but he chastised us. He told us never to humble ourselves because we were better." His eyes were sparkling as he remembered how they had been all but torn to pieces, and blood pouring out of numerous wounds on their bodies.
As he spoke about Irena, and servant woman he had to chuckle out loud. Yes, they had plenty of woman that Deimos could pick, and plant his seed within, but there was something holding him back. His optics wandered over his brothers form for a few moments, and said "I don't think I'll be a good mentor, or father to my kids." He blurted out. Ah, so the truth was told. Deimos was frightened he'd be bad for his children. After all, look at him. He was the aggressive brother. He had never cared for another living thing. Not even Alec. Alec had always taken care of himself, and sometimes even Deimos.

Alec looked at Deimos and narrowed his eyes. For a moment he doubted his brother, his brothers trust for him. Maybe Deimos was incapable of feeling love? The kind of platonic love that Alec had for his brother could have been uncanny for others. But what would Deimos do if he were to lose his mind, that was already beginning to rot away. He spoke of the fear of not being a good father. Hell, look at who their father had been, and how they had turned out. Alec only wished he could speak with Eranis, to ask where his father had gone. Have their god save them, as Alec stood up and closed his eyes standing across from his brother now on the other side of the small den. "Your sons would be proud to have you as a father Deimos. You are strong, you may be a bit light headed, but you are smart, you should have more faith in yourself you know. You are the lightning dragon and I am the fire serpent." Alec said and narrowed his eyes. As he tilted his head. He studied Deimos. In all his form, his strong form. If he were to disappear in one night, Alec would fully trust the pack to his brother, but he would never ever leave his brother alone, ever again.
"Beside's, every time we are injured, we become strong as the sun rises." Alec said as he set his head right back onto his shoulders. Was he honestly concerned about his brother? And what for? A being, uncapable of feeling, no. That was Ryouta. His own boy slave. Something, fathoming of feeling itself.

I KNOW LIGHT IS YOUR MOTHER, BUT DARKNESS I FEAR Of course Deimos loved his brother very much. However, Deimos was incapable of showing love in the manner that others would choose to show it. It seemed as though Deimos could sense his brothers distrust in him because he began to shift back and forth on his paws. His voice got low, and his optics peered into his brother's own eyes. "You know I would do anything for you, right? You're the only family I've got left. I will always be there for you. I may have an odd way of showing it, but I love you, brother. Alec spoke about how Deimos's spawn would be honored to have him for a sire, but he couldn't be sure. How did his brother know? If he remembered correctly, there were some times that the twins had wished their father would just disappear, and then one day he did. Deimos cringed at the memory for a few moments, but was drawn out of his thoughts as his brother's gaze passed over his form.
Alec spoke about how they healed every time the sun rose the next day, and Deimos nodded his crown at that. "I hope your right, brother. Lightning dragon, and fire serpent. Has a nice ring to it, doesn't it? Reminds me of some Chinese folklore." He grinned, his optics dancing with mischievousness. However, his brothers prying gaze troubled Deimos, and the grin slowly faded from his constitution. "Is something wrong, Alec?"

Alec flicked his ears as he listened to his twin brother. He could remember the horrid memories filled with blood, when they were young. They hadn't gotten one sign of peace, they simply went to war. And now, to their liking had they killed. Funny, an act, cheating death so many times. They were both living examples of that. Alec's purple eyes shined in the dim light of the ash den. "No, nothing is wrong. I just simply have nothing else to talk about, but I don't wish to leave at the same time." He wasn't lying. But, he was uneasy, maybe he was terrified of many things. He was, just he was far more conceded, more secret about his emotions then others were. As a pup, he was the more emotional one, he was the one who was punished the most, and he was the one who was trained to be the evil master mind.
"Eranis know what's become of this world" He whispered with a sigh. He splayed out on his stomach, well at least he hadn't gotten into any real trouble as of late. So who knew what was going to go down. That gathering was something he didn't want to go to, but he did at the same time.

I KNOW LIGHT IS YOUR MOTHER, BUT DARKNESS I FEAR Deimos nodded his refined crown with a sigh, but remained silent. He too remembered the dark days that had plagued the brothers. He could remember how Alec got punished more, was treated harsher, but it was all for a purpose. He was to become the evil master mind of things. In a way, Deimos envied his brother. All Deimos was was a killing machine. He was trained to feel only rage, and to numb out all other feelings. He was a very emotional wolf, but most of his emotions that came to surface were dark, and dangerous. Angry, and sulking. If he didn't react this way, he would have never gotten favorable with his father. In a way, he guessed that his dad knew what he was doing. He had known his sons far better than his sons had known themselves, and had trained them according to what they would succeed in. Deimos was the warrior, the iron fist. Alec was the master mind behind things, the silent killer. Alec's next words startled Deimos out of his thoughts, and his multi hued gaze snapped to attention.
What has become of this world? Who really knew. The Gods' might have had some idea, but they had never bothered to let the Demi-gods in on the secret. Deimos slowly sank to lay upon his belly, but never took his gaze away from his brother. "This world is becoming a darker place with out the Gods'. It was a savage one before, but now it's becoming a place where you have to bite, kill, and claw your way to the top. Hierarchy no longer has any effect unless you can convince others that you deserve to lead them." He spoke softly, his lyrics quite true. Deimos might have been the warrior, but he was far from stupid.

[bg=black][atrb=cellpading,0,true][atrb=cellspacing,0,true][atrb=border,0,true][atrb=width,521,true] Alec settled his head on his paws in front of him. The world was not coming to an end, he knew that. He had too much to know that this could be considered peace compared to the days before them. His purple eyes showed no signs of moving off of his brother, but he wasn't exactly looking at him either. Alec knew enough about the world of the dead, probably more then the living. As did the fact that balance was returning, a little at a time. It was perhaps his mind that was drifting away. As Alec watched a small wisp next to his head, he moved it abut the little fire wisp, but then it vanished again. "Perhaps a sacrifice is in order then? Perhaps that, would make Eranis happy" Alec suggested without a moment's notice.
What was his plan, well, if they did a proper sacrifice, then perhaps he would have a chance to speak with Eranis. The god they all so wanted answers from. The others he took no care for. He wanted too know what happened to the others. But perhaps it was just the simple fact, nothing lived forever, not even the immortal. They must eventually scum to mortality. Eventually with that tendency to not want to. Alec wondered, for this one, they would need a male sacrifice, no female would suffice for this.

I KNOW LIGHT IS YOUR MOTHER, BUT DARKNESS I FEAR As Alec spoke about maybe making a sacrifice, Deimos's curiosity perked. What if they actually did this? What if Deimos, and Alec went out, and found a perfect sacrifice to throw into the volcano? But who? Deimos's multi hued gaze was resting in Alec's direction, but he wasn't mentally there in the cave with him. He was going through a list of eligible males they could sacrifice, with a pedigree of blue. Eranis wasn't a merciful God, they demanded only the best sacrifices to be made. They weren't looking for a charity, and Deimos and Alec would probably be burned to a crisp for eternity if they had even so much as thought about offering an unworthy sacrifice. Deimos blinked, and brought himself back to the present, and reality. His optics stared at his brother quizzically, before his crown lowered to lay upon his outstretched columns. The moment caused him to wince a little for he felt the healing edges of his wounds stretching. He didn't want blood to burst from them again, so he moved carefully from now on. "But who, Alec? What male do you know of that would be a worthy sacrifice?"

[bg=black][atrb=cellpading,0,true][atrb=cellspacing,0,true][atrb=border,0,true][atrb=width,521,true] No, not worthy, just, entertaining. Alec's mouth grew into a sinister smile. That boy was a bother. As if he actually thought the king cared for him. He was a simple problem child with no one to guide him. Though, it would give him a bad reputation to have killed an orphan child. Most would not care, because he was a monster. Alec made them all believe that, and Ryouta wouldn't even speak to Deimos, which left his brother in the dark about the true nature of someone who's soul could be saved. But, if it had been, he would be a threat. Alec encouraged his insanity for those reasons. Alec stood up, yes, not just that. Alec was itching for some new found fun. "Ryouta, Kigu, the bomb master" Ryouta was his toy after all, why not get rid of it for the fun of it?
Though did they have time, what would happen as this went along? He had to go to that meeting tonight? Alec flicked his ears, damn, if only he hadn't agreed to go to that meeting. But, meeting them made it all that easier to find their weakness. Alec sighed to relax himself, telling himself, don't get too far ahead of your plans. Planning, too many things in such a little amount of time was not healthy for your thoughts.
