A/N: Well what do you know...chapter four. Fair warning however...it is rather short. Enjoy guys!
Disclaimer: Is this really needed?
If you were to ask my mother she would tell you that this all started in 10 A.D. Though I suppose it was when the idea of ethereal spirits came along did we really start to exist on a human plane. So many cultures have their own view of what a demon should be. A good majority believe us to be harbingers of evil and death, wanting nothing more than to destroy all human life. And while there are plenty of those out there, that's not exactly what we are. For you see where there is evil there is always good. And while many may roll their eyes at the prospect of a good demon, there are in fact many. They are known as deamons, guardians and guides for those who need them. And while I could sit here a spew some sappy love story on how a demon and a deamon fell in love, blah blah blah, that's not the truth. I'll leave out the gory details of how the first half breed child came about, however she was the first of our kind. And those that came after could have been called the best of both worlds, depends on who you ask really. My mother though old, was not one the firsts, but the daughter of one of the firsts. Genetics doesn't really apply to the passing down of talents and such, but depends on which blood wins out. My mother is a prime example of someone taking after their deamon blood. Quite and reserved, willing to help and to see the good in all. However, it was easy to see her other side as well. Fierce in battle (arguably both sides), depending on the day quick to anger and to dish out punishments. The balance is never perfect, but it manages to work out in the end. Talos for example, is much like our mother, calm and collected, though if caught just right, uncontrollable when fighting...or when trying to calm him down. Davin, is every bit a deamon, quiet, preferring to keep out of the fray when given a choice. Willing to help us train and hunt, but more than happy to keep out of the way and watch. He wasn't a push over by any means, just one that liked going with the flow. Nathaniel, on the other hand, is demon blood dominate. Aggressive and fierce, Nate is not really someone you'd like to cross with. His carefree attitude is good for throwing people off, many not expecting him to be a tad bit violent. He's been known for his sadistic moments as well. I wish I could say that those moments a far and few, but they aren't. Around family, he's fine, fun loving and a bit of a goof, but alone and perhaps at his darkest hours, is when he becomes something you should fear. He doesn't really go out of his way to cause harm, but if the opportunity presents itself he is more than happy to take it. I'm much like Nate in many aspects. And it is the knack for killing that honestly chills my mother's blood, but manages to bond Nate and I. It's not a strong urge...it never has been, but; at least for me anyway, it is an always present whisper at the back of the mind encouraging bloodshed. As disturbing as our tendencies were, they were never questioned, never judged, just accepted as normal for the two of us. Were not however, allowed to hunt together, reasons to this day that remain unknown. I would often question things, and nine times out of ten, no one really had answers for me. Well...other than Nathaniel. So when I had questions it was Nate who I sought out, and then later on Shadow. But I wont bore you with in house politics.
We all have the ability to teleport, however it sometimes comes at a price. My mother for example can only do so once or twice a day, the ability draining her of her power. My brothers and I on the other hand, do not feel such a pull, and can go farther. Though it often depended on whether or not we had already been to the place before. But that varied for us all. Nate has gotten as far as different countries so long as he has a picture to go by. Davin can get to places simply by sound. We honestly don't know how either. Talos and Dezi use radio waves, with one simple phone call or change of the channel they can be anywhere. I'm a lot like those two...but if I'm tired...well let me just say that Atlantic is bloody cold. Our ability to transform is also unique. No one knows why we take the appearances we do, but it is speculated that the forms take after our personalities. I'm inclined to agree, but have no real proof to back my opinion. I guess it's just one of those things that just is.
