Chapter 2: I am your Family (Kanjo-Rei)



"Your name is Kanjo-Rei..." Her voice echoed in my head.
"You are my son. I want revenge on this world. Go bring it to me, Kanjo-Rei."

I stared at her.

"Who are you?" I asked, hearing my own voice for the first time.
"My name is Giozei. I am your mother."
"You....who is my father?"

She narrowed her eyes at me.

Telling me that I wasn't supposed to know...
"You don't have one. I made you. Your only family is me. Now do as I said."

I stared at her again. I would have done it, but something didn't seem right.

"No."
"What?!"

I sighed.

"I said no. I don't want to."
"Why not?!"
"Because it's bad to kill....." I avoided her eyes.
"What...? Tell me you didn't say that....I couldn't have messed up...." She buried her face in her hands.

I felt really guilty.

And I heard something. A small voice, in the back of my head.

You're so stupid. You have an opportunity to take lives and rule this whole stinking world. Take it!
What? Who're you.
Man, you ARE hopeless. I'm you, genius.
How can you be me if I'm me?
Ok, this is sad. You're resisting, can't you tell? You were created for evil purposes, and you're choosing to be goody-two-shoes and separating me. I'm the evil in you.
Evil me?
Yeah. I'd prefer to be referred to as Aku no Kanjo-Rei.
Go away. That's my name, I don't need you turning it into something evil.
You won't be able to get rid of by saying "go away". I don't want YOU here. I'm what she meant to create. Not you. Me. And it's my duty to make sure no one loves YOU, as ANYTHING.
What? No. I don't believe you. Leave me alone!!

"What are you yelling about?" Giozei's voice popped into my head.

Oops. I guess I said that out loud.

But who or what was that voice......

Ugh. My head hurts.

"Are you ok?"
"I don't know if I WILL be....."

She sighed, reached into a chest of drawers, and pulled out several robes.

"Here." She said. "Put these on."

"Huh?"
"Whether I failed in creating you of not, you're still my son. And my friend. So I may as well treat you like one."

I took them and smiled gratefully.

"Giozei- uh, mom?"
"Huh?"
"What does "love" mean?"

She looked surprised. I guess it's because of my adult-like appearance, she assumed I'd know a lot more than I did. But this world seems so...new. I want to know things.

She sighed.

"You know, I'm not so sure myself...."
"Can you tell me what you know?"

She paused.

"I guess it's when you like a person so much, you'd want to be with them forever. I know there's more, but I'm not sure what it is...."

I stared at her.

"I understand. Is there more than one kind of love?"
"Well, yeah, there's love like a mother's love. Or a friends love. But that's just called friendship."

She sighed again.

"But nobody loves me in ANY way..."
"I do."

She stared at me again.

"Are you serious? You just met me."
"Yes, but you're my mother. I don't think time makes a difference for a mother's love."

She looked like she was about to cry.

"But....I'm not really you're mother...."

I smiled at her.

"You are to me..."


(Author's note's: Yo. It's the teenager with no life again.
Isn't this a cute chapter? Do NOT take this the wrong way, I beg you.
Yes, they do love each other, but as mother and son, and nothing else.
You'll see. Kanjo-Rei's gonna fall in love with "someone else"
(Not telling who!!) later. And I'll need a LOT of help there,
so don't expect to find out soon. Also; Giozei lied about the father thing,
you'll find out about that later. AND I DON'T OWN THE LEGEND OF ZELDA!!
Ciao, dudes and dudettes!!
