Devil's hour (one shots)

you lost your chance

You lost your chance

     In the living room, Josh was watching a movie on HBO. He was seated on his leather couch with Ruffles in his right hands and a large drink from McDo in his left. Josh was a fat eighteen-year-old guy. He stopped studying because he's too lazy to study. What he does now is to watch T.V. He mostly gets money from his job which was robbery.

     Josh has unpleasant attitude. He's rude, unpolite, lazy, kleptomaniac and improper. He became like that after his parents died in their house burned by fire. He was eight years old that time. Luckily he was saved but he his left hand was burned after he tried to remove a burning wood on top of his mother but he was shoved away by the fire fighter. 

     He was now with his grandparents. They're now pretty old so they won't live any longer.

     It was already 11:00pm and he was still up. He was watching a horror film, Possession.

     This movie was about this girl being possessed. Josh doesn't know why he's watching this horror film. He usually hates horror. He decided to change the channel. The remote control was on the coffee table in front of him. He was too lazy to get the remote by hand so Josh stretched his right leg and pressed the arrow up of the channel with his big toe. As he pressed the button, the channel turned to a spiritual channel. Mass.

     Josh made a grunting sound. He doesn't believe such things because he thought that God wasn't there for him. He prayed when he was a kid for a better life but nothing happened. He began to doubt God when he's 13 years old. He cited being Christian. He once again reached our his right leg and pressed the off button. The television suddenly went off. The big fat guy slowly stood up, his belly bouncing. He left his food on the couch, not caring if it'll be eaten by ants, and went upstairs. 

     As he walked the corridor, he noticed something moving from the corner of his eyes. He looked to the left and saw none but a plant. He looked to the right and he saw nothing but a painting of a farm. He shrugged and continued his walk to his room. He twisted the knob of the door and stepped inside his room. It was dark inside and the only source of light was from the open door. He let out a loud sigh. He's too lazy to open the light and he's going to sleep anyway. He slowly and lazily closed the door behind him as the door made a squeaking sound. He should be repairing the door for it to be quiet.

     The room was now dark. He could only see little details in the room. He let out a loud yawn and stretched his arms. He threw himself into his double bed and pulled up his blanket and curled into his bed. He began sleeping, snoring very loudly and disturbingly.

     Josh was running around the island full of burgers, money, games, and ladies. He was very happy. Even more happy when he found out that he was not fat anymore and now has abs and not-too-buff muscles. "Now this is the life!" he yelled. He went to the girls, who were sitting in the hot tub. He smiled to the girls and they began to giggle. They were wearing bikinis and their skin were covered by lotion. His smile grew wider and approached closer to the ladies until he was stopped when he stepped on something. Something made up of wood and metal or what he thing is mutual. He looked down at his feet and removed his foot on the object he was stepping on. He found a crucifix.

     Josh made a face. He kicked the crucifix away from him. The cross slid near the coastline of the island and suddenly swept into the ocean because of the waves. He made a grunting sound and continued his approached to the girls.

     The ladies in bikinis welcomed him with a kiss on his cheeks. "Come, you should meet the King," the blonde tanned woman said with a wink.

     "Sure," Josh said as he put his arms around the girls as they led him into the forest. There were so many girls and they're following him as they travelled the forest toward the heart of the forest. He always wanted his life to be like this. He began thinking that this wasn't a dream. He abruptly stopped when he stepped on something again. He looked down and found another cross again. Josh spat as he kicked the cross far away from him. As he kicked the cross, he began wondering if the cross was following him too. Hah, yeah right. The cross doesn't move. It's not even a living thing he thought.

     The forest where mostly made up of huge trees and vines. There were no grass and no animals. All he could see was trees. Of course he only sees trees. This was a forest after all. He the girls that were wrapped in his arms stopped when They arrived their destination. "What are you waiting for?" Josh asked, "Let's go."

     The girls still didn't move and stayed at their place and so the girls behind him. They were staring at the sign right in front of them that said : Welcome to hell 

     Josh shuddered as he began thinking that following these girls were a bad idea. He stepped back but suddenly stopped when he bumped on something. He looked back and saw the worst thing he ever saw in his life.

     Demon.

     The demon grabbed his head and lifted him up. Josh was being aloft, his feet dangling in the air. The demon's grip on his head was tight and painful, like his head is being squeezed until it's flat. Seeing the demon made him want to vomit. The demon has a hideous face, His horn was long and curved, his skin were red, his tail was like a scorpion and his hands, his hands were huge and with long sharp nails. His hands were so big that it can squeeze his head with just one hand. His feet were also huge with only three toes. The demon wears no clothes. His ears were pointed. He smiled humorlessly, showing his vicious teeth, all pointed.

     "I shouldn't have kicked Jesus away if I were you," the demon hissed, his voice was cracked. "He was following you to save you and what you did? You just kicked Him like He was nothing. That cross could be a weapon but too late."

     Fear crept inside him. This wasn't what he wants. He wanted to have a good and relaxing life. What did he do to deserve this? He started regretting what he did on the cross. How foolish of him. He suddenly jumped when another cracking laugh came. And it was not from the demon in front of him but from the girls who followed him. He glanced around at the girls. His eyes grew wide as he found the girls weren't beautiful and sexy before. They were also demons. Josh could not describe how they look like but seeing them was like seeing monsters. Wait, they are monsters. But even though they are monsters, he could not describe them. 

     The male demons raised Josh's head higher for all the female demons to see. His grip was getting tighter. "We have our dinner!" he yelled. All the demons yelled with triumph. 

      The demons started running toward him as he was dropped by the demon and fell into the ground. All the demons jumped right to him and started eating him. The male demon laughed loudly with terror as it echoed the forest.

     The grandmother abruptly sat upright as she heard a scream next to her and her husband's bedroom. The scream was familiar to her. Then she realized . . . "Josh!" she cried.

     She took a quick glance at the wall clock in the room, which it was already 3:00am before she shook her husband's shoulder till he woke up. "This is important John. I heard Josh screamed. Let's check him if he; s alright," she said.

     The grandfather sat up slowly as he opened the lamp light. "You sure he screamed? Because I didn't hear anything," he said. He looked at his wife with his sleepy eyes.

     She stood up . "Please John," she said as she went to the door hurriedly. Her legs were aching but this didn't stop her to check if her grandson was alright.

     John sighed and shrugged. He stood up and followed his wife, holding a baseball bat just in case.

     As they arrived at Josh's door. The grandmother first knocked on the door. When there was no response, she turned the knob and opened the door. As she stepped inside, she was about to break down when she saw her grandson. John, too, was surprised when he saw Josh.

     Josh was lying on his bed. He was disgusting to look for the worms eats his body. Millions of worms. He was surely dead as the worms eat his eyes, his flesh and everything. His inner could be seen. His not-beating heart being eaten by worms and his brain was dug by the worms.

     The grandmother screamed with fear.
