The two young boys had been searching through the snow covered birch woods for a while but they still couldn't find what they needed but they kept searching desperate to fulfill their parent's wish.
"Where do you think it is?" One of the boys asked.
" I don't know The other boy said but we must find it".
These boys could almost be mistaken for twins,they were the same age,even if they was not born on the same day,they were almost at the same height, they were dressed in smilar clothing, fur clothes to be able to live in the cold climate and they loved the feeling of adventure and they you could say they had the same eye color, blue expect here one of the differences start,one of the boys had dark blue eyes while the other one had light blue eyes but the biggest difference were their hair , they both had red hair but in different styles one boy's hair looked darked because his sides were shaved and the other boy's hair which was completely red has a strange hairstyle,because it pointed up just like a flame which he really liked and wanted to keep it like that. But when he was little the hair sometimes quickly changed color to white almost like it couldn't decide which color it wanted to have which he never understood why it did so but thankfully it has seemed to have stopped now.
The boys continued with their search when suddely the boy with the light blue eyes got a sad look on his face and said" I just hope that we can do this exactly as she wanted it to be." The boy with the full red hair put a arm around his brother's shoulders. "Don't worry Atreus"he said "We will make sure that her wish will get fulfilled". Atreus looked up at his Slightly older brother and couldn't help to crack a little smile despite the sadness within him.
"Thanks Deimos" he said before noticing something. "Look there!" he said and pointed towards a tree which was covered with red leafs.
"There it is" Atreus said before he walked to the tree and pulled out his knife to take the branch they needed but just as he would begin to cut off the branch he turned around and asked"Do you want to do it?" Deimos couldn't help to crack a smile, and answered "What are you scared of the tree?" "No I am not!" Atreus said angry and quickly turned around and began to cut.
Meanwhile Deimos stood guard just to be safe, it had never be any dangers in their woods but just in case, and while he stood there he kept a watch on his younger brother, he thought,they were only a few months apart but he still was seen as the older of the two which he really enjoyed to be honest he really loved his brother,he also really liked challenges,one example like all those times when he tried to sneak out with their father on his hunting trips which didn't end very well but his mother said the reason why he was the oldest was because;you are the light in Atreus's life and he will always need you. The memory made him smile a little but also feel very sad at the same time Mother.. he thought,he missed her so much... but he had to try to stay strong for Atreus.
And just as he finished that thought his brother managed to cut loose the needed branch." I knew that you could do it" Deimos said and Atreus turned around with a tiny branch in his hand. " Thanks" Atreus said. " "So that was enough?"The older brother asked.
"Yes so you think that Father's done now? Atreus asked.
Just as he asked that question they began to hear the sound of a axe chopping against wood and even some kind of grunting and lastly a angry scream which signaled that the tree finally had been defeated.
"I think that answers your question right?" Deimos asked.
(Atreus gave a quick nod).
The two brothers then turned around and began the path back to the one parent they had left and towards the moment they both once thought never would happen.
