Chapter 1: The bird who flew by
-C00lkidd, time to go home!!- 007n7 called out to his kid, they had been on the playground for more than half the evening already and the sun was starting to set. He wanted to be able to get home by foot and not have to use the c00lgui to get there, as he wanted anything but for his child to take after his old ways.
The little kid lifted up his head at the mention of his name, readjusting his colourful cap.
-Coming, dad!- He shouted back, C00lkidd had spent the bigger part of their time there playing with another kid, ever so slightly taller than the red one, with almost ghastly white skin, white hair and some yellow wings on his back, with another pair on the sides of his head.
The two kids approached 007n7, C00lkidd skipping happily and wagging his tail whole the taller one walked calmly beside him, looking around at the rest of the park, like he wasn't accustomed to seeing the outside world.
-Dad!, Dad!, can we please let him stay over?- Both kids faces lit up with excitement.
-I'll think about it. Where are your parents, kid?- 07 asked the one beside his son, kneeling in front of him to match his height.
-I.. I don't know.- His smile faltered, looking down at the floor.
07's expression shifted from a smile to worry, placing a hand on his shoulder.
-You can stay with us until we find your parents, would you like that?- 07 softened his voice, giving the kid a reassuring squeeze, making the child's face light up again.
-Thank you, Mr.- He smiled and nodded before C00lkidd rapidly took his hand and started walking behind his dad.
-So, what's your name, kid?- 07 asked.
-1x1x1x1.- The kid responded with enthusiasm.
07 muffled a chuckle, he wasn't good with naming kids either but c'mon, naming your kid an equation?
-I'm 007n7, and i'm sure you're already familiar with C00lkidd.- He said, patting his own son's head, making the youngest one wag his tail in happiness.
1x's eyes widened at the mention of his name, he had overheard his father mention him on the phone with his coworkers a couple months back.
-My father used to talk a lot about you, Mr. 007n7- 1x exclaimed happily.
07 laughed nervously as he unlocked the door to their house. -Oh yeah? why so?-
-Something about an incident on Mr. Elliot's pizzeria.- 1x said innocently as C00lkidd dragged him inside, both of them falling over into the couch.
007n7 froze in his step as he closed the door. He turned around and paid closer attention to the kid. His wings, the bright red eyes, and that aura he knew a little too well from his youth.
The blood drained from his face as the realization dawned upon him.
He was housing Telamon's kid.
