It was a frightening night, you couldn't see anything outside, the clouds were all over the sky and the stars were barley shining. The moon looked exactly like in one of those old horror movies, I'm sure no one has ever seen anything like that before. The wind was blowing like never before, it didn't matter how thick was your window . it still felt like you had only a piece of card board instead. Trees were falling over everything it was like the apocalypse was coming just in a blink of an eye. No one cared about no one, everyone was busy with saving themselves from the storm. A night like this can never be forgotten. That night a little 12 years old boy was stuck in a small darkened allay where no one would ever go. With a guitar on his back and a bycicle right next to him , he sat there for nearly two hours just listening to the hair-rising sound of the wild nature. Before that he had the best time in his life while enjoying a sunny day...but then...a mysterious man completely changed everything...
A stranger walked up to Max and sat down on the bench right next to him in the park. Everything and everyone went silent, the only sounds you could hear were the little boys heart beats and the amazing guitar licks played by him. It was like the heaven combined with the fear of the hell, those angelic sounds made Max forget about how scared was of the man. The boy was there to earn money for his sick mother so he hadn't had so much of a choice, he had to stay and sing . Every faster movement of the man made the boy freak out and miss the following note on the guitar. Well of coursed he was freaked out, he's only 12, and the man was like two meters tall dressed fully in balck and with ugly scars under his eyes just like they were forming a tattoo, who wouldn't be? The man just sat there listening, and not saying a word , it was almost dawn and Max finally deceided it's time to go home after a hard day at "work" . The moment Max got up from the bench the creepy man (let's just call him Creeper) grabed his arm :
MAX: Wha - wh - what are you doing ??? Let me go please!! I-I - I have to go!
Creeper: Don't be scared son! you have nothing to be scared of, I was just listening to you your music and I was amazed. The best part is that I know you are doing this for your mom and...
MAX: What? how did you know that? Who are you?
Creeper: Will you let me finish? I know this because I know eveyrthing, I know that you are 12 years old , your name is Max and your doing all this for your mother. It's really amazing that a little kid like you can do such things for the loved ones.
MAX: I'm not a kid, and it's none of your business! NOW LET ME GO!
Creeper: Hold on Max, I want to make you an offer, your mother could be healthy again and you won't have to work this hard anymore. You have a gift and I'm the one who cand make eveything happen. The so called "dark side" will help me, if you know what I mean...
MAX: Are you talking about the game called The Darksiders?
Creeper: No Max, that's just a game... it's not related. I'm talking about the black magic, I'm sure you have heard of it. It can...
MAX: Are you kidding me? Black magic is just a story for little kids...meh
Creeper: Would you stop intrerupting me? PLEASE?! Black magic isn't just bed time story, it's real! Here take my hand! and I can make you see the world ruled by the Wizards of the Darkness.
MAX: B-b-but...
Creeper: Just take my hand already!
MAX: Ok ok...you don't have to scream... WHOAA what's that? are those flying cars? where am I? What's this? What's that? Why is everywhere so dark? OH MY GOD!! VIDEO GAMES EVEYRWHERE!!!
Creeper: You see Max? everything could be better with the black magic, you can get eveything you want: health for your mother, videogames for you and everything you can imagine.
MAX: I don't know... my mom told me never to accept anything from strangers...
Creeper: Well, I'm not a stranger , you already know a lot about me, you know I am a Wizard of the Darkness and I came here to help you and your mother.
MAX: I don't even know your name!
Creeper: You will find out eveything when the time will come, you now have to choose betweet working all day long while achiving nothing or coming with me to the dark side and saving everything you love and transforming this world to a better place.
MAX: Ok, let's try it but let's meet here tomorrow at noon because If I don't go home now my mother will get angry. I accept your offer because I want to help my mother, not from other reasons!
That moment Max didn't know what he was signing up for. He sold his soul to the devil, the so called Wizard of the Darkness. He lost his happines the moment he agreed, even tough his mother was healthy again he wasn't the same anymore. The little 12 years old boy carrying a guitar on his back and riding a bycicle wasn't the same anymore
