An assassin's family

This is something that has been sitting in my file since my earlier days back when i found this site in 07. It's nothing related to my other work.

An assassin's family

It is not long before I leave this world. It is not long before I die. It is not my choice nor is it my wish. It is how it is. I am not ill nor am I being hunted down. I have just lost my energy to live for a few years more.

I am saddened that I won't get to live to see my children growing up. I truly wish I could but... I only have the few years left in me.

It's enough time for me to give them my knowledge. Power and hope for a wonderful future. I love all of my four children, none higher then the other. I wish I had more time but it is inevitable.

I don't often show my face except to my children and my mates. No one else knows about me and if they some how did... they wouldn't wake up next morning.

My own race is not to be seen by others except for the ones you love and the ones you trust with your lives. My race hasn't been seen in the last thousand years for say. I have lived in this world for five hundred years, living in secrecy. Usually my race last up to a thousand years but I have expanded my energy and powers to save my family and thousands if not yet millions of lives.

I was born and raised as an assassin by those who have stolen my egg. They had managed to find the last few eggs of my race. I was the only who was kept but the others managed to be taken away from the ones who toke me. I was left alone to endure their teachings and their punishments. They knew what kind of creature I was. They knew that I had powers beyond anything on this planet. They wanted to use me and control the world... and they nearly did but if it hadn't been for four wonderful females, I might have killed millions of lives in my time.

Those four wonderful and loving females gave me a power I never knew existed and it was stronger then my abilities. It was the power of love.

That power showed me the true way of everything and what harm I was doing. I had forgotten about everything I was raised and taught and turned on them. I turned on my masters and teachers and killed them. I stopped them from hurting any one else, but in the process I used up most of my life force to save a lot of people and my mates.

It was well worth the sacrifice.

And from those four wonderful mates, they brought to me four wonderful children that each inherited a few of my powers and abilities. I sired the most important things to me in this life.

My two sons, Drake and Draco, were the first of my children. Drake is a Draconian just like his mother. His inherited ability gave him strength, which comes from his siblings. His strength protects his siblings and has the greatest of will power.

My second son, is Draco who is a dragon. He bares his mother's wings and sharp senses that made her the most excellent of a dragoness I had seen. He uses his inherited wings and claws overpower any foe. Along with that, he inherited from me the ability to redirect energy and release shockwaves.

Next are my daughters, Rala and Viper. Rala is a raptor and inherited my intelligence and agility. She is a quick thinker and quick with her claws. Her mother was one of the most deadly creatures to have as a foe. She is quick, cunning and deadly accurate with her claws that kill her enemies without any part of their body left in tact.

My last child and daughter is Viper. She is a snake and just like her mother, is just as beautiful. However, she had not inherited her mother's poisonous fangs. This left her mother and I a bit worried. Her mother was a legend for being a killer and a healer. She would kill her enemies quickly with or without her poison. However she was also into the arts of healings. She developed her own poison into a cure for other poisons and developed a habit of licking wounds clean. However with no poison, my daughter inherited nothing from her. She only inherited things from me. My tail blade, my blue scale over my eye and... my Darkness.

I had sensed the darkness in her since the day she was born. Usually snakes bare eggs but because of me she was born rather then laid. The same went for the rest of my children. Because of me she inherited the one the thing I hate most in the world. Darkness. The Darkness was something I too was born with. It is a power unlike anything the world has seen in its history. The Darkness is a power which could rule the very fate of the world and change lives, if not that then destroy them.

When I was an assassin, the Darkness controlled every part of my being. I managed to get rid of nearly all of my Darkness by using it and my energy to destroy my evil masters and use the energy to destroy their evil army. I didn't use all my Darkness though. I guess that a little of it remained with me. It didn't pass with all of my children... only Viper.

Every time in look into her eyes, her innocent eyes, I see in the very back of them her Darkness. It pains me everyday knowing that she has it. However another gift that I posses is future sight. I can see the future but only my children's future. So far, Viper's future is clouded but it seems fine since there is no Darkness covering each of the children's futures. Only her's. I tried not to dwell on it for it tends to knock me out of focus. But I don't worry about it at all. They are still young at this point. They are still hatchlings, barely understanding who they are and what they are capable of. Each born a day later then the other and each young as two years.

Another trait they inherited from me is a longer life. Typically since each of them have a different age, like my sons living as long as five hundred years and my daughter only twenty, they now will most likely live for one thousand years. They along with my mates as well since I transferred a lot of my energy to them during our matings.

So I sit here now; in a small part of the desert under the gods' stars. Each star is a whole other world in which many of us leave this world and enter another. Draco, Drake and Rala are right now asleep, huddled close to me. A small fire is burning so it keeps them warm. Viper on the other claw is on the other side of the fire, scanning the area for any intruders. Her dedication to keeping us safe from watchful eyes is my doing.

I always warned my children to stay vigilant from anyone. To always be cautious and to never talk to other strangers. Viper toke this to heart and often is seen watching the camp for a few hours before finally retreating to lay away from the others. That is another I fear for her. She tends to sleep away from her siblings and always when we travel, is at the back.

She had finished her scan of the area before she hissed softly and retreated back to camp. She stopped, looking at her siblings before slithering away from them and curling herself a bit away. She hissed which a sigh was now and slowly drifted off.

I hated to see her like this. I often tried to ask her why she does it but she just says she wants to be alone. I know that that is not the case. I know the real reason why she is this way. She considers herself as an outcast. Her siblings each had something that represents their parents. She doesn't bare her mother's poison fangs nor her mother's healing knowledge. It shames me to say that she doesn't believe that tail blade or the blue eye scale something inherited by me a good thing. But she is young and doesn't understand yet.

My species are very rare and tend to have powers and abilities like no other in this world. My races are of reptiles that have been here since the birth of this great world by the great earth goddess, Gaia. We... my kind have used their powers to keep nature balanced so as not to upset Gaia. But not only do we use our powers to help the world but also to the world and its living beings. We use them to protect and serve the world.

Me... well I used mine to nearly destroy it. I am rewriting my wrongs by doing my sacrifices that have in a way helped other. Though the sacrifice I truly regret is giving up my longer living. To only see my children grow up and become as powerful as me would be my last dying wish.

I sighed and looked down at my palm. My scales are as tough as diamond, my claws are just strong enough to cut it and my body has the features of nearly all the reptiles in the world.

The fangs and poison of the deadliest snake are at my disposal. The sharpest and keenest eyes of the dragon are one of my greatest senses. The arms and strength of a draconian were among my greatest powers. The intelligence and wisdom of the raptor was a great muscle in my use. The rest of my body comes from original reptiles from before like many dinosaurs; camouflage scales of smaller lizards and tail of great swimmers. The dark Naga's poisonous tail blade was an ultimate weapon. But the most valuable of my reptilian features is the blue scales that are over my eyes. A small diamond shape eye scale that stands a bit away from face and is as blue as the sparkling sea. The only real source of my powers comes from it; which is also why my daughter Viper carries it with her.

I don't believe that it means much to Viper but in time... it will mean more to her then the fangless and featureless from her mother. It will be the sources of her powers and her destiny.

I sighed and stood up, softly moving the cloak that covered by body before I walked towards my daughter. She heard me but didn't move. I slowly reached down and carefully picked her up with my hands. She was no longer then five feet and weights much less then my hand but she was extremely well handled.

I walked back to where I was sitting and began brushing her head. She slithered her tongue but not like a typical snake. She would only do it when she is sad, nervous, angry or worried.

When I slowly lifted her head to see her beautiful blue, she had sadness in them. I spoke to her like any good sire should to their daughter.

"What is wrong my daughter?"

She looked down for bit, sniffing before looking back up at her father.

"Nothing is wrong father."

I just gave her a worried look.

"What do you mean nothing is wrong? Viper, you sleep away from your siblings all the time. Why?"

A nervous hiss came from her before looking away from me.

"I... I don't belong with them."

I blinked, already knowing this but still, it would help me get a more helpful answer.

"What do you mean you don't belong with them? Of course you belong with them. They are your siblings."

She just shook her head softly.

"I know I am but... I'm not like them. I don't have abilities like they do."

I sighed, giving a small nod.

"I know you don't," I said, still stroking her head. "But just because you don't have any abilities doesn't mean you don't belong with them."

"But they also have something from their dams. I don't even have anything from my mother!" The last one made me flinch and a single tear ran down her eye.

I knew that she had nothing from her mother but I just wish she can recognize the gifts she has now.

She spoke back but what she said next surprised me.

"The only thing that I from anyone is you. I know that we have some of your abilities but none are like my siblings."

Wait? She has more than one? Something made me fear her for that moment and I didn't like it. She clearly has more than one which is more than any of her siblings had.

I tried not to seem surprised and speak but she said continued on.

"Why am I so different father? Why am I alone?"

It remained quiet for a bit and I just sighed.

"I'm sorry my daughter... but I cannot fully answer that. I can only tell you no matter whom you are or what you look like. Whether you have any abilities or not... you are still my daughter. I will love you to the end of my days and so will your siblings and especially your mother. We will not treat you any different."

A smile approached.

"Really father? Do you truly mean that?"

I smiled back at her.

"OF course my daughter. I love you no matter what." With that, I brought her up to my head and rubbed her against me. A typical reptilian type of love and she rubbed back. I knew that she would be eventually be fine.

After our rubbing, I laid her on my lap and slowly reached under her tail to her vent. She was light asleep but I knows she will enjoy this; she always does. It's not considered abnormal for me to do this to my daughter nor to the rest of my children. Unlike stupid mammals who stay within most of their boundaries, reptiles and my kind do enjoy this.

I haven't touched my daughter in a way that would make this bad... like using my organ to mate her but I do pleasure my children.

Viper needed it after this little problem. I just thought on as she hissed; feeling as my finger rubbed past and forth on her vent. She was young so her feminine secretions were light, yet she remained pleasured till the end when she had a dry ejaculation. I slowly continued this process till I had made her slightly moist and entered the tip of my finger into her vent, which got a larger hiss to escape from her. I held her softly so she could wither as much as she wants without falling.

As I entered and left her small body, my mind began drifting to what she had told me. She clearly had more abilities than I thought. More than her siblings but the abilities remained hidden from me which is why I am afraid for her. I didn't let it worry me to much for it was a long ways away before she could fully realize her true powers. With one of hands occupied within my daughter, I stared off into the night sky, waiting.

I didn't know when I drifted from the plain of existence but when I did, I heard the voice I heard much of when I was still an assassin and my family didn't exist. A voice that reminded me of an old ally now an enemy.

Venom.
