Next I hear a voice say "Hello, Jamie" I look up and see Al, his entire aspect was extremely nefarious. His body was oddly transparent, for the exception of the flames that engulfed his entire body.

His face was somehow made of molten rock. He says "I am a demon of the devil. I poisoned that book with the spirits of people that had spent their lives within the gates of hell because they had lived a life like yours."

My boyfriend? A demon? I was trembling with fear! I tried to speak but nothing came out. T​hen he snapped his long, pointy, boney fingers and m​uttered with vicious intent "Torture her with the dark, raw pain of guilt, six hundred sixty six times the amount anyone has ever felt!"

Then, I feel my body torn apart from my soul, and all I can feel is the ripping sorrow of guilt. I feel it overcome and penetrate my soul, it shatters nearly all of my sanity, just enough to hold on to reality. As the flames extinguish, I finally feel the pain reside. From the embers I hear "I did that only because I love you."
