Olympias and Abigail were both enjoying some dinner in the town known as; Shulgi.
That was when Olympias noticed a strange man sitting by one of the nearby tables.
The man had a cybernetic look to him, in the sense; that his arms, legs and some of his back were all covered in futuristic technology.
Olympias also noticed a strange sumerian symbol on the man's forehead. She then noticed the tired and weary look on the suffering man.
The man now got up, he paid for his meal, and he also left a very handsome tip.
Olympias now looked on, as the man walked out of the restaurant.
" Sis, what is the matter? " said Abigail, as there were bits of food around her mouth.
" Nothing " said Olympias, as she cleaned Abigail's mouth with a napkin.
" Where are we going now? " said Abigail, as she was holding Olympias' hand.
Olympias was about to answer; when she spotted the strange man from the restaurant; sitting on the ground.
Their eyes met.
" Do you need some help? " said Olympias, as she stopped in front of the stranger.
The stranger looked up, Olympias noticed his tired, yet, kind eyes.
" Do you mind if I tag-along? " said the stranger.
" We don't mind, " said Abigail, innocently.
Olympias was about to say something, but that was when Abigail said;
" You are welcome to join us, Cain "
Olympias froze, Abigail sounded like she knew the man.
" Abigail " said Olympias, surprised; " do you know this man? "
Abigail nodded.
" He is Cain, also known as; SCP-073 "
Olympias paused for a moment, she the uttered;
" Cain... the son of Adam... "
Cain merely had a welcoming smile on his face.
The three of them could now be seen walking together.
" You never answered my question, " said Olympias.
" I am sorry. What was your question? " said Cain, politely.
" Are you the first son of Adam and Eve? "
Cain was quiet.
Olympias looked down at Abigail, but Abigail was just smiling.
" He does not like to talk about his past, " said Abigail.
" I see " said Olympias.
Olympias smiled, as she said;
" Where is your brother; Abel? "
Cain now gave a hard look to Olympias.
" Also something which he does not like to talk about? " said Olympias, as she looked down at Abigail; Abigail nodded.
The three of them walked till the sun was sitting, when night came; they rested at an oasis.
Olympias and Cain were both sitting around a campfire, while Abigail was asleep on Olympias' lap.
Olympias noticed that Cain was just staring into the fire.
" You never did get a fire like that, " said Olympias.
" What? " said Cain, confused.
" When you made your offering to God " said Olympias with a smile.
Cain giggled.
" No, I did not... my brother; however; did - Cain got quiet for a moment - And I killed him for it... out of envy, jealousy, vanity...and pride "
The wind now passed by.
" That day, I gained nothing, and I lost everything "
A crackle could be heard from the fire.
Olympias felt pity for Cain, but she also felt curiosity. She picked up her spear, where she then gently hit Cain on the chest with it.
" Yep, you really are him... " said Olympias, as she felt a slight pain on her chest; at the spot where she had hit Cain.
Cain just giggled.
" Where did you get all those cybernetic prosthetics? "
Cain smiled, as he said;
" That is a story for another time "
Olympias had another question;
" Where are you heading? "
" To meet my father and brother "
It was now morning, as the group were heading towards Qurnah.
Qurnah was the place where the sacred garden was located.
In front of the gates stood the Gate Guardian.
Olympias now noticed Cain looking off into the distance; and so was Abigail.
" SCP-076... " uttered Abigail.
" Who? " said Olympias.
" My brother, " said Cain.
Olympias now saw him, a wild man; who had strange marks and symbols all over his body.
Olympias looked on, as the wild man pulled out a strange looking sword from thin air.
" That is Abel...? " said Olympias, utterly surprised; " but... he looks like a berserker... What happened? "
" I happened " said Cain, as he walked towards his brother.
Olympias looked on, as Cain too pulled out something from thin air. Cain did not pull out a sword like his brother, He did however pull out a futuristic gun.
The two first brothers were now standing before one another.
Cain may be the oldest, but Abel was the tallest; which is why; Abel was towering over his brother.
With his calm blue eyes; Cain was looking into the red fiery eyes of his brother.
The tension was now broken, as the gates opened.
" What now...? " uttered Olympias, as she was having a hard time keeping up.
From out the gates, walked a humanoid figure; made out of earth and vegetation.
" Who the hell is that? " said Olympias.
" Adam... " uttered Abigail.
Olympias' eyes widened.
" Adam... the first man... " she uttered in disbelief.
This Adam is known by two other names; Adamah and SCP-(?).
Cain and Abel were both looking towards their father.
Adam walked past the Gate Guardian.
He had what resembled a human face, but, as I said before; his whole body was made out of earth and vegetation.
Cain brought Olympias back to reality by placing his hand on her shoulder.
" You and Abigail should both get to a safe distance, " he said with a gentle smile.
" What about you two? "
Cain looked over at his calm brother.
" We are going to have a 'talk' with our father "
Olympias could sense the serious tension in the air, which is why she picked up Abigail, and flew into the air.
The two sisters looked down at the two brothers, as they approached their father.
But, Cain and Abel did not put away their weapons, they merely held their respective weapons ready.
Cain now fired a plasma blast at his father.
The right side of Adam's body was now gone, but it took mere seconds for his body to regenerate.
Remember; Adam was known as; Adamah, the earth itself.
Massive vines sprang out from the ground near Adam, the vines were heading straight towards Cain and Abel. The two brothers destroyed the vines, but more were coming.
Olympias and Abigail both looked on, as Cain and Abel were both fighting against the earth itself.
Earth-palms, vine-hammers and even colossal killer plants attacked Cain and Abel.
With a sword in each hand, Abel was cutting his way towards his father.
Abel was mere inches away from beheading Adam, but that was when a vine ran through Abel's chest; holding him in place.
" No... " uttered Olympias, horrified.
Blood covered the vine, blood too could be heard dripping to the ground.
Abel dropped both his swords, as he felt his strength leaving his body.
Olympias and Abigail both now noticed one of Abel's portals appearing from behind Adam, from out the portal could the hilt of a sword be seen.
" Brother! '' yelled Abel with the last of his strength.
Cain teleported behind his father, he took hold of the hilt, but before he did the deed, he uttered;
" Forgive me... father "
The faint hint of a smile could be seen on Adam's face.
The first man's head now hit the ground, as his body too fell.
Both the body and the head turned to dust.
Cain was holding his wounded brother in his embrace.
" I failed you once again... " uttered Cain, as tears rolled down his cheeks.
Abel raised his hand to Cain's face.
" Brother... " uttered Abel, lovingly, and with a gentle smile on his face.
Abel also vanished in a cloud of dust.
" Is he gone... " said Olympias, as she landed back on the ground.
" No " said Cain, as he cleaned his own face; " both of them will return "
Cain got back up on his feet, he was ready to continue with his journey.
" Where will you go? " asked Olympias.
" To wherever God has decreed " said Cain with a smile.
