They were creations, made from the souls of others and their bodies were made of dust and metal. Nothing was fully their own--their life came from someone else, their energy from a rock containing the blood of hundreds, their entities from the ground. When they died, they could be replaced easily and their bodies would return back into the earth, as though they weren't here in the first place.

There was nothing to prove they'd ever walked on the earth, as they were kept in secret, and being just 'Envy' or 'Lust' was enough, because they'd end up pretending they were someone else too.

(Always someone else, never themselves.)

'Envy' was a general, a cat, a painter. Lust turned into a cause for destruction. Gluttony was a bomb that didn't realize his true nature. Greed had been changed again, for the nth time.

They envied humans for their emotions, for their personalities, because who wanted to be just a pale imitation anyways.

Envy turned to hate, hate into destruction, and thus their goals began.

(If the originals disappeared, then they wouldn't be copies anymore.)

What they failed to realize was that they had emotions, something that was purely their own. They grew tired or bored, they wanted to sleep or hide, and it was all their own feelings. Something that wasn't borrowed or stolen, something that came from themselves.

And in the end, it was those emotions that would bring their downfall.
