Notes: This started out when I was looking over random sayings I had written over the past year, and the opening line is one. I have no clue how it came about, but it did. It was a half finished beginning, and this is what happens when you're bored in school. Any how, here we go...
=====================================================

"Are we gods or devils? All we do is destroy- we never create. Surely we must be demons loosed upon this poor planet."

//Out of the mouth of babes,// Duo thought before he grinned and remarked, "You can be what you wish, but I know that I am Shinigami, the Great Destroyer, the beginning, the end, and all the things in between. I am your worst nightmares and deepest fears. I am your darkest secrets and hidden desires. I am-"

"Get to the point, Maxwell."

"Fine. Steal my thunder, why don't you? Just ruin my siloloquey, I doesn't matter. Now you'll never know."

"Quatre let a sad smile cross his lips. The Chinese youth was angrily pulling his fine raven strands behind his ears. Duo had stolen the elastic that had held it in a ponytail, and during the ensuing fracas, it had been ripped apart. Wufei had demanded justice, so Trowa, peacemaker that he was, snapped apart the band that held the American's chestnut waves together. Needless to say, Duo had been furious, and probably would have killed the Latin pilot, had not Quatre asked, with large puppy dog eyes, if enough people had already died to suit Duo's tastes.

The Japanese teen stood apart, outside the ring of fire. It was a small fire, so that the smoke would not attract unwanted attention, and thus, three boys pressed close to the warmth and two stood apart, detached and yet connected.

The scruffier of the two spoke. "Devils. All of us." He shifted his gaze from one pilot to the next before he turned and walked away into the darkened woods.
