I remember it like it was yesterday even though it was so long ago. I remember my home and my life before and after, before it was just my mother, father and I. We never had much but we had each other and we were happy.... that was until the murders.

A long time ago just after my father was murdered I was in a lot of pain and I had hate in my heart. I had run away and I was only eleven  years old. I had committed many crimes and I got caught and locked up, my mother never even knew about it. then one day a small black cat had crawled into my cell, I was lonely so I said hello to the cat not thinking much of it, the cat said hello back to me. At that moment i thought i had lost my mind, but then in a flash I was surrounded by a dark black suffocating fog. when the fog cleared there was a man with short black hair and a well maid suit. I was about to scream but the next thing i knew his hand was covering my mouth.

"I can help you, I know your hurting and in pain" I pushed his hand off my mouth.

"Help me how?" I asked curiously. He explained that he was a demon and that he would help and protect me and that he would follow my every order in exchange for my soul when I die. I agreed and from that day on I keep to the contract and the symbol of it burned onto my lower right shoulder. The demons mark. 

After that day I thought everything would be okay. I had Sam as my butler, or my imaginary friend, as my mother would say. That is what I needed her to believe to keep he safe. and for the next two years every thing was fine. But then it happened... I lost everything.

That night... that horrible night. my mother had just finished washing the dishes, and she seemed so sad, even when she smiled I could see the sadness in her eyes, but i couldn't bring myself to ask why. It was like she knew something and I wanted to help but I didn't know what to do. That night my mother did something she hadn't done in a long time, she came into my room and read me a bed time story. I didn't know what to do but it was nice, I hadn't had a bedtime story in such a long time. After she finished reading the story she tucked me in bed and told me she loved me. that was the last time I would ever here her say that to me, because that night all hell came to ruin my life.

I remember waking up and seeing a tall dark man standing in my doorway I couldn't see him very clearly because my room was in flames. I remember the feeling of pain on my burned skin from running through the fire to find my mother but I was to late. I thought I was going to die but then I remembered, I ran outside and did what I knew I had to do.

I rolled up the sleeve of my night shirt reveling my demons mark that held our contract. There was a sharp pain as I called for my butler. 

"SAM!!! I order you! Help me... please." Within seconds Sam was right in front of me.

"Yes my young mistress what would you have me do?"

"I order you, put out this fire at all costs."

"Yes young mistress, and I do recommend you get as far from this fire as possible. I shall come get you when the fire is out."

"Thank you Sam." And with that i was off.

*Time skip*

The next morning I was woke up, Sam helped me up and handed me a long red dress. I looked at his slightly confused.

"I was able to save this, I thought you might need it considering your still in your nightshirt."

"Thank you." I say taking the dress. "Now Sam is it safe to head back to the house?"

"Yes it is safe, I shall take you there now."

After Sam got me back I looked at what was once my home. I walked to where my mothers room had once stood and there on the floor was what was left of my mother. I wanted to cry but I knew it would do me no good.

I got dressed and went into the forest behind  my house and picked some flowers, after that I ordered Sam to help me dig a hole under my mothers favorite cherry tree. when we were done we lay my mother in the small grave. when I was done filling in the grave I used Sam's pocket knife and carved into the tree, IN LOVING MEMORY OF MARRY L. WILLIAMS. YOU WILL ALWAYS BE LOVED. 

I looked up at Sam,

"Your work here is done, you are free to go and I shall call for you should I need you again."

"Of cores." He said turning to walk away, but then turned around and handed me a slightly burned folded peace of paper. "By the way I found this in your mothers hand." He said and was then gone.

I unfolded the paper and read this:

DeaSerena.

I do hope you enjoy this little game. I have made it just for you.

I will give you a warning that you are indeed next on my little list.

You never know when I will strike but I am coming for you, and I

shall see you soon.

Sincerely. Forever alone

After reading this I crumbled the note and shoved it into my pocket, and then placed the flowers I had picked onto my mothers grave. I was only twelve when I lost her, I had no home and no family or friends, I was all alone..... And I was ready for revenge!
