#1 of Brother


Brother and Andrew are both my character, If your not 18 ect. Read and review. Be brutally honest about mistakes. =================================================================== In the dark abysmal lands that will be known by many names;Gaia, Terra, and simply as Earth. This plain was in constant turmoil. Swirling clods of fog enveloped what little there was in the land. It was permanent Twilight. Every day (well as close to day as you can get in a sunless limbo) massive lightning storms would plague these plains. Earth quakes would rip the land asunder. Leaving jagged scares on the land. One day a creature like no other appeared, not arrived but first there was nothing then he simply existed. The first moments of his existence where pure agony. Every single nerve receptor activated at once responding to stimuli. After his agony subsided the being, who was a creature of great stature and strength became aware that he existed. He was covered from head to toe in a tan coat of fur. He had a heart shaped face with small, fuzzy ears on the sides of his head. His mouth was filled with great teeth. His strong arms ending in sharp claws but he still possessed an air of calm, and gentleness. As he took in his bleak surroundings he realized he did not know what to call himself. He pondered this when suddenly a word slithered its way into his thoughts, like a snake it came silently and stealthily until the word made itself known; Brother. Brother, he rather liked that name, he did not know its meaning but thought it suited him none the less. Brother wondered aimlessly through the void for what seemed to be years, but in that world there was no notion of time one minute could turn into a year or simply time or whatever preconceived notion you have of it, would stop. Then Brother just stopped walking growing tired. Not physically but emotionally. He had never known any companionship but he had grown lonely. So he thought about a companion not a form but a mind something to speak to, to spend a comfortable silence enjoying their company. When these thoughts passed through his head, a shining light appeared so new and intense was this sensation that had never before occurred in that barred land, that everything stopped the earth quakes, the storms. As if in astonishment, and reverie, to this new, and powerful element. Light, light had been introduced in that world along with something else. Or should it be said someone else. In that instance a creature much like Brother, but still completely different was born. He was slightly smaller than brother with dark brown fur. When Brother noticed what had happened he dreaded what was to come. The memories of the pain still fresh in his mind even after all this time. When the pain started, it wreak havoc on the smaller creature. As he writhed in agony Brother could no longer take it, not wishing anther single moment of torture on the poor creature he moved to him. Then embracing the creature he whispered soothing words to him. When the pain subsided, the poor creature slumped, unconscious from his ordeal against Brother. Brother was glad when he noticed that the creature's pain was over. Glad for its well being and that he was no longer alone. Brother set the sleeping creature down on the floor and looked around. Where the creature appeared there was a strange... he did not know what to call it. It moved and seemed to be alive. When he made an attempt to touch it t burned his paw. How strange he thought it does not appear to live yet it possesses warmth and a spark of life, and it gave of light but only a small fraction of what appeared when his new friend came into existence. Friend, yes that was what that creature was, a friend, and again he was glad. As he stood by the strange alive yet not alive thing he felt it radiate warmth. When he looked closer it seemed that the thing was greedily devouring some rock of some kind. Maybe if he tried to think of more of the things food then he could take it with him. Since it seemed he could create anything he wanted. But when he did all that appeared was a little brown thing with green things out of it. He tried smelling it nothing he tried breaking off a piece, nothing. Until he thought of giving it to the thing which he decided needed a proper name. Something that described its greedy, violent nature but that also described the warmth it radiated. Blurple, no that's not it, duck no that's not it. Then suddenly it came to him fire. Yes that was this creature would be called fire made him feel warm just thinking about the word. When he did feed the brown thing to the fire; which he also decided on calling it wood. The fire greedily ate it. Creating more wood Brother gathered as much as he could and made a bundle. Touching the fire to the wood, it eagerly leapt onto the bundle which Brother then took back to where his sleeping friend lay. Friend, the word still brought a smile to his face. When he reached his friend he set the fire nearby still cautious of the fires violent nature. He walked over to his friend to wake him and learn his name. When he did his friend woke with a freight and cowered away from Brother. It broke his heart to see his friend like that but he understood how his friend must have felt. Speaking softly to him Brother tries to calm him down. "Hello, my name is Brother, and I would like it if we could be friends. It is very lonely here with no one to speak to. What is your name? do you have a Name?" It took a while of Brother speaking to his friend before any attempt was made by the latter to speak. At first it was jumbled and pronounced wrong but he finally got the hang of speaking. "My name is Andrew... I think?" After the two friends had made their introductions they fell into a comfortable silence enjoying each others company. Suddenly Brother spoke up "Andrew will you stay with me, I have learned that I can create things and make this world better would you stay with me as my friend. "Of course I will, you where there when I needed help so of course I will stay." Through his conversation with Brother, Andrew had moved his paw so it was now covering Brother's.
