It was a beautiful and sunny day. The birds were chirping. The bees were buzzing. The kids were laughing. At least they were to a normal person. To Mark Rallen, it was his work space. Mark is no ordinary person. He is always hidden and wears a mask and a costume. He is skilled in the arts...the arts of killing. See, he was once a nice man. He greeted people, had dinner with his friends, and was always polite. That doesn't mean he wasn't a sinner. He was a sinner indeed. One day, when he was driving out to drink at the bar a truck came. It slipped on some ice and crashed into a telephone pole. Mark got out of his car and the electric wire came swinging down and killed him instantly. As I said before, he was an avid sinner. He lied, swore, and hadn't gone to confession since he was 10 years old. He was sent to a place, a place where all sinners go. Where all souls burn for eternity in the palm of someone's hand. The hand of the Devil. Mark couldn't stand it. "Please, please! I don't belong here! I need to be back up on Earth! Please! I'll Do anything!" Mark pleaded. "Ahahahahahaaa...! Oh I can't stand to see you suffer like this! I need you to suffer by making other people suffer! I'll tell you what Mr. Rallen. If you do a job for me, you can be on Earth every day. Just keep in mind, this job is one the you can't QUIT!" the Devil replied with fire spewing from his mouth every time he spoke."Oh thank you! I would do anything to get back up there!" Mark said in great relief. "I need you to be my...collector! That means you have to kill Mr. Rallen. Kill people that have sinned, like you." the Devil explained. "I am so happy that i don't have to stay here. I just wish I was up there doing my new job already!" Mark said trying to butter the demon up. "Hahahahaha...be careful what you wish for Mr. Rallen. This job comes with a few, perks if you will. Not the good kind though. I will be replacing you blood with flames. This will be a constant, and painful reminder as to why you are up on Earth. Your brain will also be infused with a painful mechanism that I will control. It will be activated when you are dilly dallying on the job. Not only those to but your heart will be wrapped with barbed wire. This will help reduce the size and make you feel less and less guilty as your heart slowly shrinks. You will only kill people that I tell you to and when I tell you to. Any other time is your free time." the Devil said in a grim voice. "Ummmm....can I just have one more day with my normal painless body?" Mark said, about to cry. "Of course Mr. Rallen. What am I, some kind of...demon?"
