"Okay, that was an amazing night." Athena said as her and Sean walked out of the bar. "Mind if I crash at your house?"

"I don't care." Sean said as they got into his car. Just as he was about to drive home, however, the hairs on the back of his neck stood on end. Tensing up, he looked behind, in front, everywhere. Where this sensation was coming from, he wasn't sure, but when his hands started to feel warm, he knew it meant something.

"Hey.." Athena said, snapping him out of it. "You alright? What is it?"
Letting out a heavy breath, he shook his head. "Nothing. Thought I saw something weird but..guess not."
He drove back to the house in silence.

Athena went to bed after they got home, leaving Sean sitting in his recording room. It had the black foam pads covering every inch of the wall, a blue and red light lamp on either side of his white board, two white shelves behind the lamps with some knick knacks here and there.
He was on Twitter when he felt that sensation again. Like he was being followed or watched. Standing, he went to his window, peeking out through the curtain. He didn't see anything, just an empty street and sidewalk with lampposts lining the edges.

His hands suddenly started to get warm, and when he looked down, they glowed that fiery orange, his eyes wide.

"No...no no not now.." He said, running out of the room, quickly going down the steps, and out onto the grass.
He remembers the first time this happened in his life..and it was painful to think about even now. He was out in town one late night, minding his own business when the same glow started to appear on his skin. He tried dousing it in cool water, but it did nothing, the glow getting hotter and hotter to the point where he started to scream in pain. He saw the steam rising from his body, sweat beading down his face. Then..his skin started to burn off in flakes, leaving his skeleton exposed. He went from screaming in absolute agony, to laughing maniacally, his feet covered in flames. After that, he was what was happening now, his skull completely encased in fire as it burned everything off.

Sean was suddenly by his car, his fiery reflection staring back at him, not bothering him one bit. Placing his bony hands on the hood, he let out a yell before his car transformed into something that a beast would surely drive.
The rims became spiked, the exhaust pipe bending over to stick out the side, the hood scoop widening, flames bursting out of it. The steering wheel became a silver chain, a skull sitting in the center of it.
Climbing in, he drove back out onto the roads, leaving a pile of destruction wherever he went, the roads destroyed by his fire-covered wheels, cars and other shops blown out. But he didn't care, he just went wherever the road took him, going as fast as he can.

The roads lead Sean a ways away from the town, eventually having nothing but fields on either side when he came to an abrupt stop, sensing something nearby. Whatever he was out looking for, it was here.
A low chuckle came from the distance, and when he turned to look, there they were, dressed in black, their pale face popping out like a sore thumb.

"Looking for someone?" They taunted, an evil smile on their face.

He pointed a bony finger at them. "Back to hell." He said, his voice sounding like a thousand talking at once in a deep, guttural tone.

"Oh I don't think so." They said. "I like it here."

Sean was suddenly thrown back by a big force of wind, being dragged a few yards away. He was met with the hateful gaze of another being, their presence literally like air. Crazy black hair and a long coat with dark clothes, and pale eyes. He was about to grab them when they simply floated away.
"I'm only going to say this once." The man said, appearing in front of them, grabbing Sean by the neck, his flames turning black. "Bring me that contract, and maybe I'll spare you..and Sean." Hoisting his head up, the flames were now smoke. "Don't make me wait."

Sean's hand was on their shoulder, easily tossing them astray, getting on his feet. The fire was back as he walked up to them. "I don't take orders from you."

"Oh you will, rider...you will." Was all they said before they all vanished.
