• Ash fell scattering in the wind, falling like dark snow. Flames and smoke choked the air, destroying the world around and shrouding all. A figure moved silently through the trees surrounding the burning structure, that used to be its home. The illumining fire light, showed his dusk features, heavy burns covered the left side of his face. It was not the fire that had damaged him, but something more sinister, something that could only be fatal to him.

    Another shadow moved faster, darkly illuminated. It stalked after its prey chasing him professionally, making no sound as it drew closer. The man continued fleeing, his heart pumping the blood and oxygen as fast as it could. His fear kept him on the move from his pursuer, knowing if he was caught, he would completely disappear. After coming this far, he didn’t want to stop, he wanted to live!

    The first few rays of light broke through, shedding new light into the dark. A lay in wait under a tree trunk, he gave a deadly eye to the world around him. Although he succeeded in his objective, he felt dark. After finally setting after his prey, and taking its life, he knew he had finished the forbidden pact of Hell. He had became the last doppelganger, he absorbed all the others to become a whole. A perfect creature but a hellish being. Like those before him, he could not balance the dark and light of the human soul. Thus a demon was born.
