"Two more of the demons are dead."
"Just two, I expected more of him.....earth is making him slow I guess."
"It would be wise to just let him be then." The slave demon of the hell pursed his lips as he realized he just stated a suggestion to the ruler of the hell itself. "Apologies Dark lord."
"He is in use more than any of you pity demons. He is the best. "
The demon bowed down his head in embarrassment.
"More are dead than they were supposed to be because you fools couldn't connect the exact dots. I was assigned the ruler of hell because the almighty god...." Dark lord rolled his eyes. "Thought I am best at guarding the wrong doing of the earth. And thus create the balance with their good. If I fail to maintain it then it will all go away. And you will all be slaves in their realm wandering preaching good and love." He exasperated. "Do you want that?"
"Of course not my lord!" "I will send another team to fetch him."
"Oh I've had enough of your drowsy plans. I am going to do it my own way"
"You...my lord?" the slave demon tensed.
"Yes!" the dark lord sighed "it's time for something wicked."

"I thought you will not show up for further sessions Miss Cooper."
"I had to."
"Miss cooper you don't have to do this just because someone is forcing you. This therapy is for you. To talk about your issues so that you can feel better. It's not going to work until you are ready."
He is right, each and every word he says is right. And he has been all this time. it was Aura who thought she don't need any help, don't need to speak out to someone and that she'll overcome this phase on her own , because she was sure no one would ever understand what she went through.
But she is no longer able to do heal the damage on her own now. She has to let it all out.
"It's been six weeks" he cut her off from her thoughts. "And you haven't given me a single clue about your problems. Nothing more than "I had a heartbreak "or "it's just a break up, I'll get over it, no need for this therapy bullshit." You have to..."
"I'm ready" she interrupted him.
"huhh?"doctor's brows raised.
"I am ready to talk."
"Are you sure?" he asked as he was still not convinced that after stalling for so long, she is finally ready to spill the beans.
"yes I am totally sure."
"well...that's a breakthrough." He let out a slight smile.
"but....only if" Aura took a pause to take a breathe. "you promise me... to listen to me patiently, till the end...with no judgements. Because the last time I tried....I ended up here" she rolled her eyes. "And next step would be an asylum and I definitely don't want to end up there for the rest of my life."
He narrowed his eyes probably figuring out how messed up Aura's story is going to be that she had to give a statutory warning.
"No judgements. You can trust me. promise." He assured a smile as a gesture of closing the deal.
"I ....I don't know where to start."
"Start from the beginning."
"It all started when I died. And I made a deal with the devil."
Dark Lord, Hell, demons and a shrink? Pretty loaded for a prologue right? Stay tuned to dwell into the rollercoaster life of Aura as she embarks on the journey to keep her side of the bargain.
