Note: This is the first of three parts in the series. Enjoy and please review!
He always knew that he was different from his brothers, just by looks alone. While yes, they all did have the silver hair and green cat eyes, but that's where the physical similarities stopped. His brothers had a small, more feminine build to their bodies. He, however, was bigger and bulkier. Where they had longer, flowing hair, his hair was short and smoothed back. That was just the tip of the iceberg consisting of their differences.
Their fighting style also had many variations. Both Yazoo and Kadaj were fast and flexible. He, on the other hand, had to cast 'haste' on himself just to keep up. While they relied on their flexibility and agility, he had to rely on his brute strength, and sometimes, that wasn't even enough.
Then again, that was just the physical attributes of the three.
Emotionally speaking is where they truly showed their differences.
While he, Loz, loved to play and be generally happy, Yazoo and Kadaj did more sulking and planning, especially to find 'Mother'. It's not that he didn't want to find her, by all means, he really did, more so than he would ever let on, but he also wanted to spend time with his brothers.
They had been together since he could remember. Through all the tests and experiments that Hojo had put them through, they always remained strong to each other. Now that they were out of the lab, they started to drift apart. Yazoo withdrew into himself, and Kadaj was ever more obsessed with finding 'Mother'.
He didn't really even know who 'Mother' was supposed to be. He just had this feeling, a feeling that once he found her everything would go back to the way they were before. That they would be true brothers again, just the three of them, and no additions like Yazoo wanted so much.
Loz didn't even know the reason why Yazoo wanted Cloud to be their brother as well. Cloud wasn't anything like the three of them. He didn't know the torture that Hojo had put him and his two other brothers through. Or did he?
Then there was Kadaj. Mother's chosen one, the one to carry on her legacy and rule the planet. Why was it just him? Why couldn't he and Yazoo help? Where they to be used and abused as Kadaj's pawns? The way Kadaj acted towards him sometimes, Loz could never tell the answer to that question.
In all actuality, Loz didn't know what to believe or to do. He just wanted to keep his brothers, no, his family, together. No matter what their differences.
