One

The voices yell in my head. I hit my head multiple times to stop the shouting. It is useless. Useless like me they scream. I am useless and I must kill. Kill, kill, kill. I turn around almost in an insane way, and kill the first thing I see. An animal, a deer. The voices tell me I did well and now I must do that to the other creation. The voices are now gone, and here I am with blood covered all over me. I must bathe myself.

How it started, I don't know, but I do know it caused a horrible disagreement between the gods. Abbiomara, the goddess of war, suggested, not surprisingly, war. Xiobbi, the god of wisdom, modified her idea and suggested that both sides of the conflict should create a being to fight for them. Both sides agreed on the idea and set off to create us.

Matariox, god of creativity and creation, started to shape me. Qhatia, goddess of life, gave me life and a mind to think. Who else added to my creation I don't know, for all I remember, is light, then all of the gods of the dark surrounding me. That's what they called themselves, although I think that the name is utterly ridiculous.

They told me to find another being, and kill them. They don't know what they look like, but I must kill them. That is all I must do. Find and kill. Next thing I know I am here, on earth. Finding a being I don't even know the name of.

I turn to the animals beside me. "Utterly foolish, right?" It only stares in response. I give a halfhearted smile and pet it. After I pet it, it runs off and disappears. I lean back on the tree behind me as some of the animals bring me some berries. Some are small and blue, others are dark, almost black, and still others are big and red. I eat them in a matter of minutes, yet it isn't enough.

I look at the birds beside me. "Could you get me something more filling?" One of the bigger birds go and begin to look for some food. The smaller birds bring me more berries in the meantime.

After waiting for a while, the big bird is back, with something in their... feet like things. It's drops something in my lap. To my horror it is the bunny that I had pet earlier. And still again to my horror, I prepared and ate it. Actually, it was pretty filling, so I think I'm not so horrified any longer.

I only arrived here one rotation of the sun ago, but I still haven't done much. I lie down, maybe I should start doing something before the voices start to overwhelm my head. I look at the sun, it's already almost out of sight. I'll start when it rises once more.
