"Oh, please, Mother loves you more than me!" My sister and I were walking down our mansion's halls. Her voice echoed upon the empty corridors.

"Then why has she shunned me? She hates my magic. She knows I'm strong- strong enough to lead and yet she shuns me for it!" As if in response, my aura pulses purple with magic.

"Calm down."

"DON'T TELL ME TO CALM DOWN, SISTER! MOTHER LOVES YOU AND NOT ME! SHE HATES ME FOR MY MAGIC!" My sister, Puffy, seems surprised. Her silence rings with truth. I snarl beneath my cloth mask. Another insistence from my mother. My father was the spider king, a man she killed. I was happy at the time. Now I can't learn to use my magic.

As the rightful heir to the spider throne, I have incredible power. My father gave that power to me when I was only a child. I have four arms due to my mother's genes, even though my father had eight. I have to hide them when we are about the village since not many people like spider hybrids. The few that do only see dollar signs. Spider eyes are very valuable, as they carry magic. I don't know what I'd do without them. Two ram horns have sprouted from the top of my head. From my mother, I presume. She's a demon and a ram hybrid.

My eyes blink back into focus and I see my sister. She's perfect. She's actually my half-sister, as she had a different father than I did. The sheep god. A pitiful title, but she is a goddess. The goddess of what? No idea. She has sheep horns and white, fluffy hair. She wears a golden leaf crown around her pirate hat. I think she's the goddess of pirates- pirates, sailors, people of the sea in general. She has two golden eyes. She's perfect in every way, other than the fact that she's a pacifist. She refuses to kill. I, on the other hand, have to kill to survive. I eat meat, and only meat... preferably human flesh.

Which ties into my friends. The blood god, Technoblade, the demon of love, Wilbur, and their father, Philza, the angel of death and life. Of course, there is also the heir to the throne of Aphatia, Eret, but I haven't seen them in a while. As if Wilbur can read my thoughts, which, come to think of it, he can, he comes running down the corridor, his shoes squeaking across the freshly cleaned floors. Techno has a much calmer approach. They walk calmly behind it's energetic brother, boots clicking against the floor. Wilbur's speed doesn't decrease as he approaches Puffy and I. Puffy moves to the side as Wilbur slams into me, tackling me to the ground. He laughs, clearly delighted by our current situation. I push him off, rolling my eyes. Techno offers a hand which I take, smiling. We're close enough now that he's willing to actually touch me.

"Nice hair." Techno rolls his eyes. A rare gesture of emotion, coming from a piglin hybrid.

"Thanks. Braided it myself."

"Liar!" Wilbur yells from the floor. Techno glances down at the disheveled boy that was now sticking out his tongue at them. "I braided your hair! You just found the flowers!" I give a small giggle, then, realizing what I just did, immediately go red. Wilbur smiles like I'm a god. He stands up, hugging me. A small cough brings me back to my sister. Wilbur's smile fades and he turns how he normally is to anyone but me, mother, and his family.

"Puffy." His tone is hostile, daring her to talk back to him. But, Puffy being Puffy, doesn't pick up on this.

"Wilbur Soot. How are you?" Techno cringes beside me. It knows Puffy is oblivious to the obvious distaste Wilbur has for her.

"Fine. How's your mother?" Wilbur is clearly avoiding her own health. He always tends to speak about the people he cares about, which is probably why he doesn't know a lot about Puffy other than what she tells him. But, then again, Puffy is Puffy.

"Mom is fine. I'm great as well." Wilbur rolls his eyes and I grab his arm, motioning for us to leave. Wilbur's smile shines once more quickly walking away, silently this time. Techno follows, shaking his head, boots clicking against the floor. I give Puffy a dirty look. "What? You never want to hang out with them."

"Wilbur obviously hates you and Techno doesn't speak to you. I'd say that they don't want to hang out with you." Puffy rolls her eyes, but I'm already gone before she can speak again.
