The morning was early, the sun wasn't even up yet before I was stirred awake by one of my older brothers. I had 20, all different ages and few even in their thousands. I was the only female, not to mention the only one with a mother. I have only visited her a handful of times when father goes out on a business trip. She's the kindest creature I have ever met, and I plan on seeing her more once I have the time to finally leave this place.

This brother was the stoner of the bunch, all of them had white hair due to the fact that they were created by father's magic and part of his DNA. Luckily they all have different personalities than him. Like most demons, father was evil, a mad man, well, a calm mad man really.

"Huh..? What is it Alex", I sat there with my eyes closed waiting for him to answer me. The bed was too warm to leave, especially at 4 am. "Yo. Uh, sis. Could you make me something to eat? I'm really hungry", he took a quick smoke of the blunt. I opened one eye at him, I hated the smell of his weed because where ever he got it, it was strong. "Are you smoking that thing in my room."  Alex looked at me with wide eyes, he just finally noticed what he did. He looked at his blunt than back at me, he held the smoke in and held the weed behind his back. He replied by shaking his head no before accidentally coughing out the smoke. 
I giggled at him. He smiled back and released the smoke to the side. "Can I have a pass on this?"

"That depends," I yawned pushing my hair off my shoulders,"did you buy the ingredients this time?"
He nodded.
"Alright. But no more smoking in this room", I pushed aside the covers to hop off the bed. I'm short, I don't mind climbing on things to reach them but having large hips doesn't help anything, especially in small places.

He snickered at my height.

Our house was like a maze! Having a mansion is difficult, especially if you don't remember what's what and where's where. My brother helped me to the kitchen, I'm glad I can have these guys to help me. Until they rest their elbow on my head. 
"Could you make me one of those cakes," he pleaded. "There great!"
I make sweets, cakes, cookies, candies and cupcakes. It's my way of escaping, some read to do the same.
The ingredients were already set on the counter for me to use. I went to the bottom cabinet for the mixing bowl.

The sound of jiggling bracelets came from the other room, it was Aladdin. He was the brother that took the time to raise and teach me.

"Navada!" He smiled down at me. "Why are you up so early darling? It's not even sunrise yet", he caressed my cheek thoughtfully.  "Alex was hungry so I'm making him one of my cakes", I rubbed my eyes in a childish manner. He huffed angrily at Alex,"I told you no more smoking in this house! Do you know how difficult it is to get rid of this awful smell!?" Aladdin placed his hands on his hips glaring angrily at his younger brother. Aladdin was the mother of all us, he washed our clothes when needed, made us food when lazy and for me,he tried to protect me from the cruelty of the world.
