Alex is the sin of Sorrow, a vengeful spirit who killed himself due to the grief of losing his best friend, father went to prison for a crime he was framed for, the abuse from his, and the constant bulling at school. Alex has the option to help humanity and save them from their sins or let them wallow in their sins and be punished for everything little sick, twisted, disgusting, horrific thing they did and the punishment is pure hell for the sinner but they deserve it. The moment he woke up he didn't feel different and he thought the rope snapped until he heard a women screaming and called the police frantically yelling how there was a body hanging from a tree, Alex turns around to see his lifeless mortal coil hanging there. He shed a single tear for not knowing how his father is going to react knowing his son, his only family, his own flesh and blood ended himself. Alex hopes he can visit his dad and possibly avenge him, once the police got there he tried to tap on of them on the shoulder but the officer just ended up in tears feeling a heavy weight of pure sorrow no one has ever felt before Alex moves his and away and the officer start to calm down, "I don't know what happened, I just felt extremely depressed and all I could is cry and nothing more." The cop told his partner as they cut the rope and carefully put his lifeless body in the body bag then notice the sucide note, they read it and one was on the edge of tears and they quickly got the body to the morgue van then proceeds to get into their cars to drive off. Alex in shock looking at his own hands wondering what just happened then sees his Aunt who was talking on the phone bragging about how her son is truly amazing and is making quick work on her new 'Neice' knowing she was talking about him. Ever since his dad went to prison, Alex had to live with his Aunt at a young age and she forced him into girls clothes and forbid him for ever cutting his hair all because she wanted a niece. Alex could help but feel pure hatred for her and decided to put his hand on her shoulder where she fell to her knees sobbing softly admitting all the crimes she has done to Alex and her business in detail and how she framed Alex's father for the accident many years ago, once Alex was satisfied with this he let her go and she stops. Generally confused she sniffles and asked her friend what just happened only to find out her friend had hung up on her, she thinks nothing of it and gets up walking away. Alex tired follow only to be stoped by Azrael the archangel of death himself, Alex looks up at him "It's time for me to pay my sin huh?" He asked. "...Not precisely why I'm here, you have a special power that's so strong that both heaven and hell felt it. God and the princes of hell wants you to help them by becoming the 8th deady sin." "A 8th sin?" "Yes, your power is so strong is can fuel other sins and/or make people confess their sins and beg forgiveness. The choice is yours Alexandre the sin of Sorrow." Azrael handed him a mask for if he was to decide to punish and a halo for if he decided to save people. Alex looks at them both before he could thank Azrael, he had already disappeared, looking back at the mask and halo Alex knew he had a difficult decision to make... What would you choose reader?
