The Confounding Continued...
Once upon a time the world was a lovely and a comfy place for all living things. Everything was controlled by a supreme force called, Alkeides and he was able to do as he pleased. He could create new creatures or elements, design new activities and even change the universe’s order. Everyone was supposed to obey and respect Alkeides, because he enjoyed having the world in harmony and peace. Alkeides tried to love and respect everyone the same, however he had a favorite creature.. It was one of his last creations and he believed it to be the most beautiful one, almost perfect. And one day he realized that he had created so many different creatures that it had become difficult to control them all, so he decided to give a special power to his favorite creature, so he called it Alkippe and gave him the power of control with the ability of intelligence. When Alkippe first got his powers he used them with responsibility, obeying Alkeides orders and respecting all the creatures in the world. As time went by, other creatures started to get jealous and were acting inadequately against him. No creature talked to him, wanted to be with him or shared their food with him. Therefore, Alkippe realized that the powers he got had made him disgusting to others, so at this moment he decided he would treat others as they treated him. Also, as he had the gift of intelligence, he was able to know and understand what was happening around him and he learned to use his intelligence against others. His first malevolent act was to diminish the amount of food others could get, so he could have enormous amounts of it, this way he didn’t needed anyone to share their food with him. Then, he destroyed environments so that other creatures had nowhere to live and so that he could build a gigantic home. After this, he spent several days planning what he should do next in order to avenge the other creatures. He was planning on doing a final act of vengeance so that everyone learned that he would rule the world. This is when Alkeides felt an extreme disappointment, since his favorite creature was now trying to overrule him, so he ordered a group of creatures to stop Alkippe from completing his master plan. The next day, all the creatures from the world gathered outside Alkippe’s home in order to defeat him. They all started to dismantle his house, and when they finally got to him and were about to murder him, Alkeides interposed and stopped the creatures from committing an act that wouldn’t have been forgiven. At that moment, Alkippe reaPavíalized everything he had done wrong, he begged to be forgiven and promised to never abuse of his powers again. However, Alkeides decided to take away his power and return him to an ordinary creature life where Alkippe would live in harmony with all the other creatures.
