He picked up the bell, smiling faintly at the trickle of blood on its chalky surface. He slowly straightened and walked as precisely as possible back to the low wood bench and sat back, resting his back against the dark wood.
Akito smiled slowly, the smile etched against his face. Like a line a knife draws in flesh. He clenched the iron bell close, crunching the small paper that read 'Happiness'. Happiness, what a pitiful excuse for humans to live.
"But, sometimes.." He voiced out loud then blinked, surprised at his own rebellious thoughts. Some times, WHAT?!
"Sometimes, I wish I was happy TOO." He whispered and, inwardly snarled at that.
No! I am GOD! I am not pitiful or weak enough to wish that. Really? Half of him alleged, buried deep under anger and deceit. YES! I am I! I rule the Zodiac. Besides, it's too late to change…everything I've said, everything I've done. It's already too deeply… IMPRINTED on me, he reasoned quietly.
"Besides," Akito laughed, all mirth gone from his icy voice.
"Its already etched in my skin."
His laughter hurt as it chased the sun from the sky.
