Today was just a normal day. The snake got to slither around, bone structure beginning to develop further. But there was a disturbance, there was yelling in the hallway, approaching the room.
?: "Why wasn't the soul stabilized?!"
Sam: "I'm truly sorry sir, but the soul stabilizer was about to burst. Putting him in it would result in a fiery explosion."
?: "He's not even named and he's already almost six!"
Sam: "We've been getting around to that, but we need a name that matches his personality, and so far not many specific traits have been noted."
?: "Then use what you already have!"
Sam: "We still need more time Mr. Gorge…"
?: "No, I am done with this!"
A tall man entered the room, the dark room making it impossible to see any details. Sam not far behind, looking panicked. The man pinned the snake down with his foot, looking down at it with stone cold eyes.
?: "Pathetic, it's squirming around is only trying my patience!"
The man impaled the middle with his cane… But it refused. The snake splits into three different parts, the part that the man stepped on crawls up his body to his neck, biting down with pink fangs.
?: "AAAAG!"
The man tries to get the snake off, but the other two parts bite down as well with normal fangs. The man stumbles into the wall of the hallway, eyes darting around in panic. Eventually, the man falls to the floor, a orange soul exposing from his chest. All three snakes dart to it and tear it to shreds, the man's body melting to rocky dust. Sam stands there terrified. The floran is there behind her, along with other workers. One of them pulls out a small pistol, and shoots all three with tranquilizers.
One of the snakes wake up, feeling a bit different, the other two are still asleep. They are kept in a small room, separated from the rest. They've grown small legs now, and have small noses and eyes. They've also grown their symbols: Two human, and one wolf, the one that's awake having one of the human symbols. The room is dark, and the only light is from the blue lines along each of their backs. The snake that's now more like a lizard starts wandering around, trying to find a way out. Eventually, it gives up, and starts forming an egg around itself. During the last stages, it can see the other two wake up, and start to do the same.
The egg starts to crack, like no time has passed at all. But instead of a lizard crawling out, a human shaped creature does. Bright pink eyes piercing the darkness, he can see the other two eggs. Not used to the new limbs, it tries to get up, but knocks down a shelf, making a pot bang to the ground. The door slowly opens, Sam peeking in. To the human, she seems much smaller, but he just grew. Sam sees the pink eyes and starts moving closer very slowly. Noticing that the human is not moving, she starts to move slightly faster, before ending up in front of him.
Sam: "H-hello, child."
Not knowing how, the human opens his mouth, and speaks.
Human: "Hello Sam."
Sam recoils back, but gently moves back towards him.
Sam: "I'm sorry I had to lock you up in here for ten years, but you killed someone. However, I think I should somehow be grateful. That man has been a huge nuisance to us, and now that this organization is fully under control by the king, things have been much smoother. And through it all, I've figured out a name for you three."
Human: "Names?"
Sam: "Yep. You're Light Wolf, and your two brothers are Dark Wolf and Scott."
Light Wolf: "Light Wolf?"
Sam: "That's your name now. However, if you want to get into a family, you're going to have to hide your true eye color."
Light Wolf: "What's wrong with my eyes?"
Sam: "Well, a person's eye color depicts their soul color, unless they coat it with their magic. Pink represents fear, which is really dangerous. You can kill someone without even trying to."
Light Wolf looks back at the other two eggs.
Light Wolf: "What about them?"
Sam: "They have a different color, so they're fine. But I'm going to teach you how to make your soul a different color.
Light Wolf: "I think I can do it on my own, I've seen it before."
Sam: "Really? When?"
Light Wolf: "When I was in my egg."
Sam: "But that's impossible, you cannot see anything in your egg."
Light Wolf: "I can see many things in my mind, they're all in bubbles. I can even see different versions of this conversation, I say different things in each of them."
Sam: "Oh, you must be able to see the timelines then."
Light Wolf: "Cool."
He takes out his soul, and puts an icy coating on it, surrounding that with a veil of water. His eyes change to a dark blue.
Sam: "You sure are a quick learner. Now let's wait for your brothers to hatch, then we can start getting you adopted."
