Chapter 4 : Samael Valmos

Jason was stirred from his stupor by that same voice he had heard while he was still in that suffocating prison - the womb. "Denvos, the baby is too quiet" the voice said.

"Relax Martha, the boy is alright, maybe he is just too tired like us from all the running and fighting we have been doing non stop.Besides, no son of mine shall wail like a weak shrimp" another baritone voice answered.

"Oh ! shut up Denvos, why was i even hoping for a sensible reply from your meathead? Lets give him a name shall we?"

" Ok dear. I will give him a worthy name possessing bravado, manliness, responsibility and most of all, a name worthy of him being my son."

"Just give him a name already Denvos or else i am not honoring our previous arrangement and i am taking away your privilege of giving him a name."

"Zenvos Valmos"

Jason nearly puked blood when he had such an awful name. Zenvos? He would rather have no name at all rather than be named that.

Martha on the other hand stomped down her feet and said" Go to hell Denvos. You are definitely not naming my son that. You only changed the first letter of your name! "

"What is wrong with my name. It is a worthy name".

"I did not say it was not but I think we should give him a name unique to him and him alone."

" Bruke ? Goldo ? Amidilo ? Zephas ? Mathias ?"

"Stop!"That was what Jason wanted to shout at this point. He was in no way going to be addressed with such dreadful and terrible names,Come hell or high water.

"Still not good enough? How about Samael?"

Jason's heart skipped a beat when he heard the name "Samael". He even opened his eyes at this point.

Martha, upon seeing Jason opening his eyes when the name Samael was suggested happily said, "Samael it is. Samael Valmos - my son."

"Our son Martha, our son."

Jason did like the name Samael. It had a nice rhythm to it. Samael Valmos - that was to be his new name. From what he knew, Samael was a name for the angel of Death. "Ha ! Ha ! Ha ! Ha ! Ha ! Ha ! " he silently laughed to himself. An angel of death huh? In his previous life they also called him the musician of death and now he was being given the name of the angel of death.

It almost seemed as if death was molded and fashioned into his very soul.

So Samael he would be.
