Day 51

Mood: Snow day!

“Death shall come to all humans, it is the cycle of life. You are born, you live, then you die, and I shall bring it to all of the champions of harmony.” Lucian the Kid said to his comrade Darkside. “Why create when you know it will be destroyed, why live when you know you shall die, I will put these thoughts into those children’s minds and make them run amok, or even better have them bow down to us.” Lucian gnarled his bony fingers into a fist and caused black flames to appear, when he loosened his grip the flames became feathers of pure ebony.

“Why can’t we just kill them all?” Darkside asked and pulled out his twin blades. Lucian chuckled at the dark entity.

“That’s too simplistic my boy. We have to kill them from the inside out. They’re too hard to pick out one by one, but making them surrender will give us the most satisfaction. I can see it now.” Lucian grinned and threw his scarf over his left shoulder. Darkside puttered with his lips, bored with Lucian’s proposition.

“You’re a death god, shouldn’t you be killing everyone?” Darkside put away his blades and asked. “Or are those guns just for show?” Lucian paused and gave him a glare.

“There is more to death than just mere violence, and these guns are much more potent than those toothpicks of yours.”

“What did you say?” Darkside summoned his swords again and ran to Lucian’s neck. Darkside heard a click 

“Stop where you are boy.” Darkside looked around his head and saw that four floating hands holding identical revolvers surrounded his cranium.

“Now calm yourself, death is caused by a multitude of factors. So many in fact that I can’t count them on my fingers. And I got four hands. So listen to my plan. There are chinks in the enemy armor. Exploit them, you kill them off. Kill Jems and Justice will follow, kill Dios, Vika will follow, kill Selena, both Jude and Astro will follow, kill Astro, Mordecai will follow. It’s a simple domino effect.”

“So kill one and you kill them all?”

“You listen well boy.”

“Don’t call me a boy blue head.”

“Blue head?”

“Your hair one eye.”

“One eye?”

“Screw you!” Darkside jumped back and Lucian’s hands disappeared and reformed at Lucian’s sides.

“You are a child, impulsive and young.”

“Shut up you asshole.”

“Watch your language.” Lucian raised his finger at him.

“Fight me.” Darkside requested, no, he demanded.

“Why not?” Lucian responded and drew two revolvers and both of them chuckled as they trained with each other.
