I fell asleep in the woods that night. I already had to move into my foster mom's house and now I have to move again. I haven't even been there five minutes and some chick was already bullying me. So I bought a few blankets, a flashlight and a pillow and I made a tent, and I fell asleep. I woke up in the middle of the night. It was cold. I sit up and reach for my flashlight. I wanted to maybe do some reading since I was awake. But I couldn't find it. I felt around for it and I didn't know where it was. "What the hell" I say to myself. When I finally found it it was covered in vines. I couldn't see anything. I stood up and put my arms in front of me. I ended up running into several trees before seeing a red aura. Almost like a spotlight on a certain part of the woods. I walked over there, still running into trees. Damn nature. I finally made it to the red light. Should I step inside or- "hi there". I scream and trip. "Oops, did I scare you". I look up at whoever is talking to me. At first, I thought it was just a normal girl. Short black hair, pale skin, red eyes- hold on what. Glowing red eyes. They stared right into my soul. She had horns. I knew what she was and it's not mortal. "Get away from me demon" I scream and try to get away. "Wait wait, hold on" she puts her hands up in defense. "Before you get all defensive I have something to show you". Walks into the center of the red light. I sit and watch. She snaps her fingers and a cage shows up. There is someone inside. Is that? "MOM!" I scream. I get up and run to the cage. Her eyes are grey and lifeless. "She can't talk" The demon says. "You put her in this cage?" I turn to the demon. She replies with a smirk. She snaps her finger and the cage goes away. And since I was holding onto the bars I fell again. I look up at her and scream again. "You have her trapped in there like an animal". I stand up. "Being dead and being an animal are basically the same thing". I quickly replied. "THAT'S BULLSHI-" I shut up when I was hit with something. It burnt my arm. "Now that you're done allow me to explain" she puts her arm down. I put my arm up to try and blast her with fire just as she did to me, but all it did was spark. "You really thought your powers were gonna work in hell?" she laughs. "The fact that you brought me to hell where my powers don't work shows that you're scared of me" I say bluntly. She shows anger. Then she throws another fireball at me. "Can I speak now or are you gonna continue to be a brat". She says. I finally stay quiet. I guess I'll just hear what she has to say. "I have an offer for you that you're not gonna want to refuse" she says putting a smile on her face. It's like her emotions completely changed. "What could I possibly want from a demon like you?" I ask her. "Well if you would shut up for 1 minute I can explain!" she shouts. "Fine, whatever" I cross my arms. "What if I told you there was a way to get your mother back?" she says. "I wouldn't believe you" I say. "What, why!" she asks. "Because since when have people been able to be brought back to life?" I ask. "There is a way, if you are selfless enough to try it". She says. I don't trust her. But if she is telling the truth, then I will do anything to get my mom back. "What is it?" I ask. She smirks. "Trade your soul for hers" she says. We look at each other for a moment. She puts her hand out. "I can make that happen," she says. "Do we have a deal?" she asks. Well this is quite pitiful. "You think I'm stupid enough to not know what your doing?" I ask. She puts her hand down. "Huh?". "You obviously didn't do enough research about me," I say. "I mean it's almost laughable". "What are you talking about?" she says. I can tell she is getting a little mad. "You can find the person I love the most in purgatory but you can't figure out that I majored in ancient religions at my old high school". I say actually laughing this time. "What does that have to do with anything" she grits her teeth and shouts. "I know your tricks demon" I yell. "I know all about how demons like you try to trick humans into giving away their souls by showing them someone they love" I pause. "But that's not gonna work for me, Not when I have the world to protect". She looks at me with pure rage in her eyes. "Let me guess, you died some time in the 2000's?" she grabbed me by my throat. "Probably Christian" I say while struggling to speak. "Am I a joke to you" she yells. "Kine..........kinda" I still struggle to breathe and speak. She drops me. "You know, this was way easier with the other one" she bites her thumb. "You know what, forget it" she turns to me who is currently on the ground trying to catch my breath. She puts her hands on her hips. "I'll wait until another one of you stupid warriors of peace shows up and then I'll start taking souls" she shouts. "You win this time....but I'll be back"

"And that's when I woke up"
