Crash And Fall Into The Night [Zane]

[Zeke Ira Bennett]

I'd been on Earth for a short while now, long enough to begin to lose count of how many days I'd been here exactly. With all the drama that had been going down I couldn't blame myself for not keeping up with the tally. Most of that drama was caused by yours truely, of course. But I didn't do it without reason because, right now, I was feeling stronger than I'd felt in a while, feeding off the energy expelled from putting people in undesirable situations, Alex's energy especially.

That boy was so easy to manipulate that he was proving to be an easy meal, plus he also cooked divinely so I was getting the best of both with him. A bit of a delicious coincidence. I looked down at the carton of cigarettes I held in my outstretched palm and smiled to myself, in all the commotion the other night at the Wren's Pub I'd ended up keeping them for myself. In a way, I suppose, it could be called a trophy, a reminder of the other night.

Walking along the top of the wall, my balance not faltering for a moment, I slid a single stick from the packet and placed it between my lips. Why not? It seemed rather calming and after a while it hadn't been so bad. I stopped for a moment while I lit the end of it and sat myself down on the wall, looking over at the Neutral lands. This place was so bizarre. They were warring with the other large city on the same island. Didn't they know that there were things better than material possessions? Of course not. This war was led by two humans that anyone could mistake for Demons of Greed.

I wondered what Alex was doing now. I placed my bet that he was sleeping soundly right now, curled up with that boyfriend of his, both of them oblivious to what had happened the other night. I smirked to myself and blew out an amused puff of smoke. I don't know why people fear the night. Its calming for me. Just because you can't see as well doesn't make it any different from the day, the only thing that changes are the creatures that choose to lurk in it. Creatures like me, I suppose.

I sat there for a while, staring into space, musing over my things, until I was able to feel the warmth of the glowing ember through the butt of the cigarette. Sighing out one last cloud of grey fumes, I flicked the stub away, watching impassively as the tiny spark of orange fell, fell, fell to the ground below.

I hadn't been in Alderres for very long. A few hours at the most. Long enough for me to roam around a bit. Not entirely searching for my brother. I wasn't searching for anything in particular. I was just simply looking around. I vaguely wondered if my brother could even sense my presence in the town he fell in. I wouldn't be surprised if he had, yet there may be other things blocking the telepathic bond that led me to him.

After I became bored of the town, I decided to find Zeke. I let our bond lead me to the wall of the city, from there it wasn't hard to find him sitting on the wall itself, looking into the neutral territory. (I had done my research on this island). "Do you see anything interesting over that wall, Brother? Because I feel like the far more interesting thing would be the person standing behind you." Zane joked with his brother as he climbed the wall and sat down next to him. "Seems I've finally found you. Not that it's taken much work. I hope you found Alderres to be interesting thus far. Or else you wouldn't have stayed?"

As I sat there in the almost complete dark, I began to feel something that I hadn't felt in a long while. It was a bizarre feeling that I doubt I'd be able to put into exact words. I knew that it was my brother. And I knew that he was close. It was as if my mind was aware of his presence and the closer he grew, the better I tuned into him. At first, I was nervous. I hadn't seen Zane since we were both in Heaven and I wasn't sure what to expect.

I'd changed since Heaven, that was for certain. But had he? And if he had, how had he changed? What if he hadn't changed? What would he think of his brother now? On hearing his footsteps pat nimbly across the top bricks of the wall, I just decided to fuck all my questions. I was having a good time for once in my immortal, and now immoral, life. Zane had fallen for a reason, just like me. Maybe this meeting wouldn't end in disappointment.

Once he sat beside me, I shuffled about in silence for a moment, digesting his voice and words. I offered him a cigarette, my lips finally curling into a smirk. "Was wondering when you'd appear. Want one?" I have Alex's pack of fags an encourage shake, letting the sticks roll about inside the box with a little noise. I winked at the identical man, my smirk twisting into something a little bit more sinister. "Yep. Found something that's interested me. "

I took a cigarette out for myself and lit it with a flame that flickered and danced on the tip of my finger. Elemental powers were so fucking fun. You could do practically everything with them. "Falling from up there was the best thing I could've done. Down here is so much more fun. What about you?"

I smirked at him and took the cigarette without much thought. I had smoked one or two in London during my time there. I had to get up to something. When I didn't find someone fun to play with, I was off doing random things around the city. "Didn't think I would stay away, did you?" Zane smiled as he lit the cigarette with his fire, something he happened to love. Fire was his best element. He had spent a lot of time in London messing with the elements. I matched my twin's smirk immediately. Falling definitely had been the best thing.

"I agree. Down here beats up there any day. Humans are so easy and fun to manipulate. Almost too easy. Where's the fun?" I asked as he took a long drag of the cig. "I fell in London. Decided to have a bit of fun there before coming here to find you. It was fun over there while it lasted, but I decided to come see what my brother was up to." Zane took a deep breath then looked at his brother with interest. "Tell me about what piqued your interest."

I was slightly envious of my brother's luck. He'd fallen in fucking London whereas I had plummeted onto this poxy island. But then again, here was severely lacking in humans. Come to think of it, I hadn't even encountered one yet. Just Nephilim and other Demon and Fallen. "Haven't seen a single human here yet. Most of the people here are half-breeds." I said with a shrug, pausing to take a long, heavy drag on my cigarette, the ember glowing more intense for a couple of seconds as it ate the paper and tobacco. "Makes it more entertaining than picking on weak, little humans. So I'm glad you came here. I haven't exactly tested out the Nephilim on this island yet."

I looked down at the cancer stick dangling lightly between my fingers and saw how the ember had almost consumed the whole of it already. I believe I'm picking up Alexander's chain-smoking habit. I bumped the filter with my thumb and let a sprinkle of ash be tarried away by the night wind. "Well... its a certain Nephilim. He saved my life." I let it hang there for a moment before continuing. "Both him and his boyfriend expell negative energy easily and, well, the boy has healing powers... and that is what's caught my interest." There was a sadistic creature being birthed in me. It'd been steadily growing while I had been in Heaven and I'd been sent to Earth to give it life, let it live, feed and amuse itself. "He's... my current little toy. I had a play around with him the other night and today there's not a scratch on him. Nor can he remember what happened. Its just... perfect."

I was at ease around my brother again. It'd hadn't been too long since I last saw him but things had changed since then. And it was okay. It was a welcome change in both of us. I just couldn't help but wonder who was the worst. I exhaled my last drag and looked down thoughtfully at the butt. "He makes great food and... his boyfriend isn't so bad on the eyes neither. So..." I smiled and placed my hand on the wall beside Zane's thigh. I leaned closer to him, extremely close, past permitted personal boundaries. With a devious chuckle, I extinguished the glowing stub of my cigarette into Zane's inner thigh. "...you up for some fun in Alderres? Or are you just passing by?"

Most of the people on the island were half breeds? I pondered that thought for a second. Humans were easier, but I had a strange feeling that half breeds would be more fun to tease and drag around in my own person game. With Zeke of course. Throughout the years, we had grown alike more and more. I wasn't complaining or anything. It was fun having someone that thought and looked exactly like you. Besides for his hair and that stupid mole on his face. Nothing too big, though.

Healing powers? Those sounded... fun. I let myself smile widely at my brother, not bothering to hide the evil in it. "Hmm. That sounds like he could be a lot of fun. You'll have to introduce us. I think there will probably be a lot of different people around this place. I think we could find fun in a lot of different forms." I told my brother before I felt him invade my personal space. The smile was gone and my face was in a straight line. What was he doing... he knew I didn't exactly like my space crowded. I would have hurt him if he wasn't my brother.

Then he reached over and put his cigarette out on my thigh. Not joking. "You fucker!" I practically screamed, placing my hand over my thigh and glaring at him. It didn't hurt as bad as it could have. I had jeans on that blocked out most of the actual burning, but it was the principle. "I should leave you after that." I told him angrily before taking a long drag of my cigarette and mirroring his actions by pulling mine out on his thigh. "But I'm afraid I think I'll stay here for awhile. It sounds like it'll be fun."

I just laughed when Zane screeched. It was a beautiful noise as were most anguished wails of pain. "Ah, but I know you'll never leave me." And I partly expected him to mimic me and press the stub into my thigh. My reaction wasn't as extreme as his. I hissed, low and breathily, but, unlike him, I smiled after a second and shoved my shoulder into him playfully, not hard enough to knock him from the wall. It hadn't been that bad. I'd gotten a flutter in my stomach and pain, once subsided, left me with a giddy feeling.

"It will be fun. You'll see." I said, pressing my finger into the circular scorch mark on my jeans and the inflamed, sore skin under it. "I'll introduce you to Alex soon enough but I have one rule. You don't fuck him before I do, alright?" It didn't matter if Zane swung that way or not, whether he'd even want to or not, I was putting my only rule down if he wanted to meet Alex. He was my toy. I couldn't have Zane coming to snatch him off me before I'd gotten to the good part yet. He should think himself lucky that I was even with him. I hate sharing. And from what I'd gathered Alex was the only Healer on this side of the island.

"I've missed having you around really." I said honestly, leaning back on the palms on my hands and looking skywards. I wonder what my old acquaintances thought of me right now. "You've always been the only one that's 'got' me."
