Deal with the Devil

Chapter four

[Hey, thanks for reading and I hope you enjoy]

I was apprehensive about that contract I signed, I had no idea what was on it and then he had the nerve to dismiss me before I had realized what I had done, he might be the ruler of the underworld but that did not give him the right to boss me around, I was my own person, the next time I saw him I would give him a peace of my mind, I was so mad I could spit nails.

 After being dismissed like I had been an afterthought, I went back in my room, the room was nice to look at but there was nothing to do, no TV, no gaming system no nothing, so I quickly got bored of sitting around, my shadows had come back and were just fluttering across the room walls making shapes of all kinds of things for my entertainment, I giggled when they made a shape of a ship, floating on water, suddenly the image turned into the ship getting attacked by an octopus and the ship sinking.

Very disturbing but cute that they were trying to entertain me, I flipped onto my stomach and closed my eyes, I wanted to cry, this situation was absolutely crazy, I didn’t want to be in hell, I didn’t think I had done anything that bad, I had tried to be a good person and treat others the way I would want to be treated, I brushed the tears angrily away, my shadows moving around in agitation because I was upset, my thought’s wondered back to the contract, maybe I should have read the fine print first, I told myself getting up.

I walked around the room and sighed, closing my eyes I visualized what it had been like for the past several years, always in fear, running all the time, lying to people you grew attached too, not making friends, jumping at every noise, was not the way I wanted to live my life any more, I had been caught by the one person I didn’t want to find me, and the thought of never seeing the outside world again terrified me to no end, with that in mind I left my room, going in search to find Sebastian.

I fallowed my shadows, I knew they would lead me to the place I wanted to go, as we turned multiple corners I noticed the light’s started to flicker, the shadows stopped and started to buzz around me, I don’t know why but I felt like I was being watched again, how I hated that feeling, if I had known I was going to be fallowed in hell as well, then I would have stayed in my home town.

“I know your fallowing me, you can come out”, I said boldly into the dimmed hallway, I heard something laugh, it was the same one that I heard right before I found myself in hell, right before my eyes I saw the air shimmer before a solid body appeared, it was a young man about my age, he had red hair and bright green eyes, I noticed that all he was wearing was a pair of low cut skinny jeans, he had a nice six pack, but in my opinion I think Sebastian’s would be better.

Where did that come from I asked myself and shook my head, when the guy saw me look at him he gave me a smirk, “Well I see your still as brave as I thought you were, standing up to something you couldn’t see” he said cocking his hip against the wall, I narrowed my eyes, “So you were the one that knocked me out and brought me to hell”, I said angrily, he chuckled at my remark, “Guilty as charged”, he said mockingly, my shadow’s had swarmed around him, but it didn’t seem in a threatening way, “Hey shadow man, how’s it going”, he asked the shadow’s, it startled me that he could understand and talk to the shadow’s, I hadn’t expected that at all.   

The shadow’s seemed to respond by buzzing loudly, the guy laughed and then sent me a sideways glance, this irritated me to no end, knowing that they were talking about me and that I didn’t understand a single word they were saying, so I cleared my throat the mysterious man raised an eyebrow and me and the shadow came back to my side settling against my shadow.
