Instinct

'His' P.O.V.

Somewhere, Present day

I knew this day would surely come. Again. The destructive nature was coded in my blood after all. Chaos was bound to follow. My family suffered the consequences. I didn't ask for this. Or any of this. I just want to live normally despite my 'special' condition.

He came before me, mocking me with his presence, torturing my family. Just watching from afar had already made my blood boil.

We.. used to be brother-in-arms, spreading harmless mischief in our 'homeland'. One day, we took things too far. Supposedly harmless became deadly, dangerous. Blood was spilt.

At first, we were just kids acting like kids. We didn't know between wrong and right. On top of that, our nature, as I am the embodiment of destruction while he was an embodiment of time and space, we were prone to wreak havoc. Perhaps, his predecessors grew tired of boredom that this 'mischievous' nature existed and one day, lady fate decided that it was time the line was crossed. 

Our 'accidental' prank was found out. I was remorseful yet fulfilled. I don't know why but I can't help it. He, on the other hand, enjoyed it a little too much. To be honest when I didn't meet him much earlier in my life, I was lonely. I didn't make any friends and was picked on constantly because of my nature. Pretty much, they were scared of me. Even the elders. They said my existence was a mistake and there's no need for any needless destruction.

I didn't understand what it meant as my memories of the past were none, empty. As time passed by, the rumor in the air reached my ears. Apparently, there was a destroyer that wreaked havoc. He awfully resembled me.  The leader of the Echidna clan stopped him, putting an end to his chaos by sealing most of his vast energies into seven emeralds and a giant emerald. While sending him to an eternity of isolation for things he couldn't even control! Yes, the poor soul is me. That day was also when he branded me as god of destruction and the seven mystical gems were born.

The supposedly realm of gods filled with discrimination. Misery. Despair. Not the light joyous hope land you would think. I had grown to endure my fate bestowed upon me. The destruction, the pain I caused after losing my parents because of some god gone rogue, I atone for it. But of course, after that useless low-life was wiped off the existence. I couldn't stop the lust for blood, knowing there are people like him. Then, he, the same who stored away my power, he stopped me while dulling the voices and feelings.

He promised the world of peace, no more discrimination with the help of my power in the emeralds. If time comes the energies grow unstable, the master emerald, will help control it. But of course, with my only permission it will stabilize. I was reluctant to let go of my ideals but eventually, knowing what I did was too far and brought shame to my dead family, I stopped, for their sake and my own.

The world he promised to me didn't come true as the world I hoped for was nothing more than a fantasy, clearly contradicting the Destiny bestowed upon me. In my isolation, I suffered the discrimination with only the thin line of sanity holding me together. When Mephiles came along, this feeling, this burning grew vigorously. That day, the feeling intensified. The small voice, the rational of me, screamed at me but was drowned by the feeling.
