Part Two
KNIVES POV
Pain, it was all I felt when I woke inside the tiny chamber I was sure my brother had placed me in. I hate pain; I don't have a tolerance for it. Sometimes, I wish there was never such a thing, but then I think about all of the spiders that inhabit this desert planet and am grateful for such a punishment. But for me, the unbearable pain was torturing. I find myself grateful for the confining space. I could not move and this made it difficult for the pain to increase. I curse my brother, my twin, Vash.
He has been a thorn in my side and an abomination to our kind for too long. For decades he has done nothing but try to save the vermin, the spiders, known as humanity. He wants to be one of them and live amongst them, but he's not one of them, he never will be. Why would he wish to be one of them? They drain our sisters' dry of their energy, killing them. How can my imbecile of a sibling continue to fight for their survival?
Vash speaks of love and peace like they are plausible goals. He is such a fool. The spiders will never give him such things; they don't exist in their world. Oh, they behave as if love and peace exist, but it truly does not. They kill and torture their own for a loaf of bread and murder their own families. Why can't Vash see this? That is why they will eventually be his downfall. One day, they will discover who and what he is and they will kill him.
I have tried to do the responsible thing. I have tried to protect my brother as well as our sisters. I have tried to save him from his elimination. I have shown him what I see in the spiders. I have shown him the cruelty and destruction the spiders can inflict. I have tried to prove to my brother that the spiders are selfish creatures. But my dear brother still believes they deserve to exist.
All of the spiders should die. They do not deserve the precious gift of life. Only the worthy deserves such a glory, only the plants, only us.
I will reach my goal. I am determined to see to the spiders' extinction. I will free my sisters. I love my brother dearly, but if Vash continues his crusade to help them and to join them in life, if he continues to stand in my way much longer, he will meet the same fate as the filthy spiders.
