Well... technically it's the next day for me (12:43-ish). I guess I can post it now. Please enjoy! XD

Also, Lankore was the first one to point out this typo last chapter: "And even though he chairs he'd it, he did still need to eat. " I had meant to type "cherished". Thank you so much Lankore! :D


A few years had gone by. The boys were now in their early teens- 14 to be exact. They had both changed a great deal as well.

Flash had grown to be quite handsome. His hair was now growing quite messy yet still well kept, and in the form of a lions mane really. The points were straight, as well as his yellow streaks. He had a golden coat with the cursive green word Flash on the top left, but now his coat was a trench coat with silver rims. He wore a bronze belt, light black jeans, and bronze boots. His tail had also grown greatly, as his tail reached the back of his head, but now curved greatly and into an S shape. His wings were also stronger and larger, about the size of an average angel really. He had truly begun to grow into his powerful angelic self.

Pyro had grown to be a gothic demon. His hair had begun to take the shape of the flames now, his neon blue streaks ever messy and untamed. He still wore his black coat with the red word Pyro in the left corner, but the sleeves were torn down to the shoulders, and torn a bit at the bottom. He also wore a black spiked choker and bracelets with red spikes, a light purple shirt beneath his coat, dark blue jeans and black boots. His wings had also grown large, except they held a point at the bend that would eventually lead to a spike, and his devils tail was about as long as Flash's, reaching the back of his head and curved into an S. He was filling his demon look very well.

But their change wasn't the point for now. Now, was the time was for how they were making new plans for the world around them.


Flash bit his lip, wondering what was missing to this design. There were two beings in front of him, each a species he dubbed human, but they had physical differences. One was more like him in a way without his otherworldly and animal features, which he dubbed a "man", while the other one had some obvious differences to a man, which he dubbed a "woman". Pyro was supposed to be helping him with this process, as it was both of their ideas, but knowing his brother, he was probably out shooting fire arrows. He was a really good shot, actually, and it was something to be admired.

The angel rubbed his eyes, finding he needed a break and maybe a glass of water. He was feeling a little off and tired... maybe he was working to hard. Maybe he could do some meditation, and come back to this process later. Besides, it was too mind boggling to do all by himself. He needed his brother for this.

Turning over to the small pond, he bent down to take a sip, when a small gold fish swam up to him, causing him to pull back in shock. Upon seeing what it was, and finding it cute really, he giggled, smiling brightly and waving to it. The fish soon swam away, Flash still smiling before he finally took his drink. This pond was actually much more refreshing than one would think. It was soothing, and he found it often took away a headache. He always came here first when he was feeling unwell.

Suddenly he gasped, feeling something push him from behind, causing him to fall face first into the water. He struggled a bit, but soon swam to the top, taking in a deep breath and coughing, spitting out a great deal of water, and looking at the shore to find Pyro laughing at him, laying on his back and kicking his feet in the air as he laughed at his own prank. Flash simply rolled his eyes, smiling softly before pulling himself up onto shore. His wings felt heavy, and they were completely sopping wet. He definitely wouldn't be flying anytime soon.

" Hahah, very funny Pyro. "

He chuckled lightly, wiping some water from his eyes. Pyro soon calmed down and hurriedly got to his feet, looking apologetic, yet he was still smiling widely like he was trying not to laugh.

" Haaaa... sorry Flashy. "

The demon apologized lightly.

" You know I can't resist a good prank. "

" Pfft. Yeah yeah yeah. "

Flash said weakly, flicking his wrist with each yeah.

" You know, you were supposed to be helping me with the new species design and traits. Were where you? "

Pyro suddenly seemed a little down. This was very concerning, considering his previous good mood. Flash tilted his head to the side, awaiting the others answer.

" I was just... "

The demon muttered, twiddling his thumbs and staring intensively at them.

" Doing a little thinking... um... what IF... you and I... created other beings like us? "

Flash could feel his eyes widen as he heard this, frowning gently. He hated saying no, but he needed to be firm with this one.

" The humans are a for sure thing, right? "

" O-of course! "

Pyro said quickly.

" They won't tend to have powers, so I'm afraid they might be afraid of demons and angels. I just don't think they're ready for it yet... "

" ... Oh... "

Pyro said sadly, his tail falling and now dragging on the ground as he walked away. Flash bit his lip, feeling horrible really, but he had to say no. The world just wasn't ready for more than one of their kind yet, and he prayed Pyro knew that. He had to admit, he'd love to have more than one angel out there, maybe even someone he could love. But the world wasn't ready, and until it was, he'd have to make sure Pyro understood.

The angel rushed over to his brother, grabbing his shoulders before hopping in front of him.

" It won't be forever dude. "

Flash stuttered softly.

" It's just for a little while. "

" Yeah, yeah, I get it Flash. "

Pyro said weakly, flicking his wrists at the other.

" It just feels weird knowing that we'll be the only ones of our kind soon. "

" A little bit, right? "

The demon soon shook his head, throwing on a soft smile.

" So uh, these other species. You know, the girls? Would it be wrong if we liked them on a romantic level? "

Flash blinked, slightly weirded out by this question. He hadn't CONSIDERED it wrong before. It's not like they were going to be related to the humans. Besides, falling in love would be ideal. They weren't going to create their ideal woman, that would be terrible. Taking away their free will and all... but they'd still like to meet someone.

Still, in a way he did understand where Pyro was coming from. So it wasn't too unusual.

" No. Not really. "

Flash said softly, looking off to the side.

" It shouldn't be anyway... "

Pyros face soon lit up, his demonic tail wagging happily.

" Cool! "

He said happily, his face turning a soft shade of purple as he blushed.

" I'd, ah, k-kinda like to find a nice girl to settle down with... "

Flash felt his eyes widen at this before bringing his fists close to his face, tail wagging swiftly and smiling widely.

" Awwww! "

He said cutely.

" That's adorable! "

Pyro's blush intensified, and he soon looked down, shuffling his feet greatly. However, his smile had fallen, and he almost seemed a little worried. Flash frowned, placing a hand down on his shoulders.

" Wh-what's wrong Py? "

Pyro smiled for a brief second upon hearing his nickname before returning to his sad expression.

" I-I just don't know if any human girls will like me. I AM a demon after all... "

Flash frowned, placing a gentle hand down on the others shoulder.

" Pyro, don't talk like that. Any woman would be lucky to have you. "

The demon blushed brightly at the others words, amazed by how the other could say things like that without feeling embarrassed. He couldn't say things that comforting without feeling like a wuss. And yet Flash had no problem with it. Pyro guessed it was just something that made the angel an angel. And the very thing that made him a great little brother.

Without much thinking, the demon moved forward and locked the younger into a tight embrace, getting an adorable squeak from the other. He enjoyed the occasional hug he gave the younger. Flash was normally the one hugging him, so whenever Pyro hugged him first, Flash would be adorable and nuzzle right into his fiery warmth. That's why Pyro liked to make his hugs special. His special little brother deserved special hugs.

Slowly the two departed, Pyro finding Flash with adorable rosy cheeks, smiling brightly. He loved that childish smile of his... he prayed that Flash never changed.

" Hey, you wanna do something REALLY fun? "

He asked softly, getting a confused look from his brother. He giggled softly, excited for his little game. Especially since he knew Flash loved/hated it.

" Like what, Py? "

With a wide grin, his fangs flashing proudly. Slowly he took a battle-like stance, hands spread out before shouting.

" THIS! "

Without too much warning, Pyro launched himself forward and tackled Flash to the ground, tickling his sides. Flash shrieked, squirming beneath his weight, giggling wildly at the sensation. Little known fact, Flash was EXTREMELY ticklish. Pyro loved to just pin him down and have at it. Mostly because Flash hated it. Yet he loved it too because it was one of the ways Pyro played. Showed him he loved him. That was the only reason Flash could tolerate it.

" P-Py! "

Flash breathed, only able to make out his brothers nickname. He somehow managed to roll onto his back, only giving Pyro more room to tickle. He could tell that Flash was starting to have to force himself to breath, but since they could live longer without breathing, there was no hurry in stopping.

Suddenly Pyro yelped, feeling something wrap around his torso before pulling him off and a good few feet away. It took him a second to realize that it was Flash's tail that had moved him, and he watched it seemingly slither back over to it's owner. Flash soon sat up on his knees, breathing heavily and placing a hand on his chest. Yet he was still smiling.

" Haaaa... I hate when you do that! "

Flash breathed, panting harshly. It only made Pyro giggle.

" I know. "

The demon said smugly, soon looking at his brothers tail.

" But you know, that tail of yours sure is powerful if it could lift me. "

Flash's yellow tail flicked a bit, the emeralds embedded in it glowing softly. The angel blushed brightly, his tail wagging through the air quickly, keeping the S shape.

" Well... it kinda has to be strong if its that long... "

Pyro laughed lightly at his brother, soon standing and helping his brother up as well.

" Come on. "

The demon said softly.

" Let's go eat. I can catch us a fish is you'd like. "

Flash nodded, slowly following his brother.


Awww... Pyro was such a good big brother. Kinda makes me sad he lost his mind later...

Hope you enjoyed!
