Epilogue- Mythics

The night was unseasonably warm. Despite the lack of leaves on the trees, the November night seemed to pity the Mythics who still needed to absorb their new revelations. A crackling fire blended with a chorus of chirping crickets and cicadas creating a symphony that challenged Mozart himself.

It was two weeks since they had last seen Raphael. Fourteen days since they had single-handedly destroyed his reign. One hundred and sixty four minutes since they had almost lost their second form.

The four Mythics were tucked into sleeping bags, gazing into the distant sky dreamily. There was no immediate need to speak, for, as far as they were concerned, there had been more than enough talking in the last couple months.

“You know this is the end, right,” John Li commented. His companions nodded, for they had been thinking the same thing. With great power came great responsibility, and it was their responsibility not to become a great power.

“Alone we are strong,” Raven said, softly, her voice smoothly blending with the musical octave of the warm night.

“Together we are invincible,” Isabel answered, giving a wink to the red-headed turkey.

“And an invincible weapon,” David continued, scratching his scalp and messing his tousled hair further.

“Shouldn’t be together,” John finished.

They were silent a moment longer, for speaking the resolution aloud put a note of finality to what they had all been thinking. There was a reason why there was never more than one Mythic at a time. They were not meant to be together, they wreaked too much power for a single person to wield. If they didn’t corrupt themselves, then the process of corruption would bleed through some other figure, waiting for their chance for real power.

“So…” Isabel whispered softly. “This is good-bye.”

“Yes,” David answered, meeting Isabel’s cold gray gaze. “Good-bye.”

see what i told you! what a bunch of self-sacrificeing losers! don't look at me. i only write the damn thing.
