~*Greed to Patience, then Patience to Greed... MAKE UP YOUR MIND!!!*~

Cody grumbled at the light that was pouring through the window blinds and pulled the covers over his head. The spawn frowned at how far he had to pull said sheets to get them over his head. It took him a few moments to realize that his wings felt a bit more squished than usual and that nothing felt quite right. As the spawn sat up, he quickly realized why.

Through the night, he had grown once again just as suddenly as before. The fact that he had a headache didn't help any. With a soft yawn, he pulled on a pair of pants and growled as he realized that they were... well, too short.

"Great, grew in height too..." he muttered and tossed the article of clothing aside. It took the spawn almost a half hour to find something decent to wear for the journey downstairs, settling on a pair of jeans that were close enough in length and waist width to be worth wearing without looking ridiculous.

"C-Cody?!" Shadai gasped, staring as her son came down from his room and into the kitchen, shirtless and looking fairly uncomfortable. "Need new clothes," Cody grumbled in reply, grabbing a box of cereal and a bowl without pausing. Hey, why the hell would he care anyways?

"I can see that, but why are you shirt-"
"No clothes," Cody snapped and slammed the poor cereal box onto the table angrily. What didn't she understand about needing new clothes? His eyes flicked over to Ary as she slowly stood up, apparently ready to tackle him if he lashed out physically.

"Cool it grumpy, we already know you don't have any clothes. No need to get all upset about it," Ary growled, flinching as she sensed Aenira awakening and wandering downstairs. Cody seemed to sense this sudden change in mood and prepared himself for the possible showdown that one or the other would start.

"Mommy... Why you yelli-Cody! You bigger!" Aenira gasped, all signs of sleep vanishing at the sight of the older spawn. As well as all precaution as her tiny form latched onto his leg. "Ooh! You's wings are bigger! You cans fwy better?" she asked, giggling excitedly and clinging tighter to his leg.

Cody blinked and stared down at the overly-hyper baby that belonged to Ary. "Uh... Yeah... I'm bigger and I don't know if I can fly," he replied softly, smiling a bit at her enthusiasm. At least SOMEONE didn't care about whether he had a shirt on or not. Bending down, he picked her up and placed the little girl on his shoulders, completely forgetting about breakfast as she squealed out of happiness and glee.

"Ooh! Stwonger tew! And much taller!" Aenira squealed, gently holding onto him and making sure her small claws didn't dig into his face or scalp where she held onto.

"Yup. Now, let's get you changed," Cody replied, grinning widely as he walked up to Aenira's room and leaving both Ary and Shadai dumbfounded in the kitchen. "What in the hell is going on?" Ary asked, wondering how Cody managed to go from grumpy and irritable to his old self in the blink of an eye. Shadai shrugged, finishing off her bagel and grabbing her bag. "I don't know, but as soon as he returns and gets some breakfast I'm going to have to take him shopping for clothes before he throws another fit."

~*Stealing Opportunities Part 1*~

“You ******** brat! I’ve told you once, I’ve told you a thousand times, STAY OUT OF MY GODDAMN ROOM!!” Ary snarled, eyes flashing dangerously in the slowly dimming light. Outside, the sun was quickly setting as the fateful hour of seven approached to turn the snow a fiery red-orange and finally a dark gray as it completely disappeared over the horizon. Neither one truly noticed the fangs that slowly slid into view or that the temperature was steadily dropping. Neither one flinched or moved as frost crept over the windows, causing them to crackle and creak.

“b***h, I didn’t TOUCH your damned stuff!” Cody roared, stepping forward aggressively. As he moved, something white and glittery shifted from his hand and into his pocket, only remaining in view for the briefest of moments. He had to be quicker than her; he was the ******** king of thieves! And what was she? Brute force or, as per a few months ago, the melee teacher at the facility he loathed with ever fiber in his body. Yet, neither one dared move an inch as the door to Aenira’s room slowly creaked open.

“Mommy?” Aenira asked sleepily, rubbing her purple eyes tiredly until she got enough of a view of the hallway. The clawed hand froze and all traces of sleep vanished, replaced by horror, worry, and tears filling her eyes. Not again! Momma and Co-dee shouldn’t fight! Fighting was bad!

It’s nothing ‘Nira, go back to bed,” Arytiss replied calmly and soothingly, voice completely the opposite that it had been all of a minute ago. She didn’t move from the fighting stance she had fallen into, eyes still blazing with anger at the younger spawn at the other end of the hallway who had stolen… well, if it was traced back to her she wouldn’t have much choice in what would happen next. The female seriously doubted Aenira would be entirely too pleased by the new living arrangements and sudden stripping of friends and most, if not all, of humanity. She exhaled a soft sigh as the fateful sniffles emerged from her daughter. Great, first Cody stole her most secretive item and now Aenira’s going to throw a fit and possibly destroy the house.

“Nothing? Really? I’ve been sitting here for a while watching you two shout an’ I’m jus’ waitin’ for a fight or somethin’,” Azrael commented, grinning wickedly. The shouting matches weren’t all that interesting, it was when their fight became physical that the true entertainment arose. Ary didn’t look it, but she could probably pick up both Cody AND Shadai and throw them across the room. Cody, on the other hand, was fast and took hits well by rolling off them and deflecting most of the power behind it. The fights were interesting to watch, to say the least.

“Shut your damned face Azrael,” Cody growled, blue-green eyes flashing dangerously even though they never left Ary. He knew she was backed into a corner, literally, and was possibly even more dangerous than had it been the other way around location-wise. He was fortunate having the stairs next to him and providing an easy, and quick, escape if needed. Even though he could hold up well enough against Ary, he was no match when she actually TRIED to hurt him. Cody had to admit though, Azrael was right in saying they had been yelling for a while. It had been about ten minutes of shouting and angry cursing and a surprise that Aenira had remained asleep for so long.

“Cody! Don’t you dare talk to your brother like that! I want you to apologize and return what-,” Shadai started, quickly being cut off by the pink-haired spawn.

“It’s mine! It’s mine and that b***h can’t have it!!” Cody roared, suddenly turning and thundering down the stairs. Ary followed shortly after, looking like an enraged bull as it went after a red cape. Cody mused for the briefest of moments that she might actually be foaming at the mouth; it was an amusing thought, to say the least. He still hadn’t the foggiest idea why Ary was so determined to get the item back. She had never been this pissed off with his other stealing escapades.

“CODY! Get your damned a** back here!” Arytiss roared as she leapt over the banister and to the ground below while just barely missing the greed-spawn. The panic in her voice was just barely audible during their fight to the door, each yelling out curses and insults at an astounding rate. She couldn’t let him leave! He would reveal her secret and things would go downhill immediately and quickly, she was absolutely sure of it.

Yet, fate didn’t seem to be on her side as the pink-haired spawn raced out the door and slammed it in her face. By the time she had wrenched it open again, Cody had seemingly vanished into thin air. A soft, sorrowful wail began, echoing around the house as the door was shut once again. Sighing, Ary headed up the stairs to comfort the girl while avoiding the various small objects that were flung around. Someday, that girl had to learn control and to not let her wind powers go about and wreak havoc on the house and surrounding areas whenever she was upset.

Azrael just shook his head in disappointment, wishing that they had at least done SOMETHING in the form of physical violence. Cody was such a coward. While the adults ran off to comfort Aenira before she trashed the house for the millionth time, he moved towards the window in hopes that his brother would return soon. Hey, he may think he was the king of the world but Cody was still cool and his brother and said spawn NEVER ran out of the house like that. A harsh feeling of dread formed in the pit of his stomach. Something was going to happen, and it wouldn’t be pretty.

~*Shadai's Journal*~

Dear Journal,

It’s been almost four hours since Cody ran out with whatever he stole from Arytiss’s room. She claims it contains some sort of great power in the form of an evil demon or curse or whatever. For some reason, I highly doubt that, but it HAS to have some sort of significance to worry her so much. Even Aenira, her daughter, seemed to have picked up on the slight change in attitude and has yet to leave her side.

Cody has never been gone this long... I can only imagine where he would be, since he must have turned his phone off as neither Ary nor I can get through to him and he isn’t on the roof, or so Ary tells me. I can’t see anything through the snow. I hope he’s ok... Azrael, usually the one who cares the least about everyone else even requested to stay up and wait for Cody to return. I called the police an hour ago, but so far I haven’t gotten any word on him.

((In this space, there’s random doodling and questions sprawled out in strange hieroglyphics. Towards the end of the paper, only one structured sentence and signature remain.))

I swear I’m going to kill that boy if it’s the last thing I do.
