WARNING: The contents of this story deal with a very common subject among teenagers today: self mutilation. I'm writing it aware to all of you, these are serious matters. I do not encourage anyone to participate in any of these acts. Please be aware of the graphic nature of this story and don't flame me for writing something about such a delicate issue. You've been warned.

Hell. A place of fire, pain, and damnation. A place where the unsaved go. They cry, they beg, they plead, but they are all tortured without mercy. They are sent to Satan, the man of many faces, many names and many tricks. Some say Satan is pornography. Some say it is the internet. Some say Lucifer is a movie. Or some people think he's their fourth grade teacher, parents, grandparents, next door neighbor, even siblings. Some say he's just him, Satan.

You've all seen the exorcist, right? Maybe your mom wouldn't let you see it, but you've heard about it, right? Do you really think that's how Satan controls you, by making your head spin round? Do you really think it would be that obvious that something terrible lives inside you?

...I wish it was that obvious, sometimes. But sometimes I don't.

The Devil can be embodied in you without you even knowing it. You can feel it, but you don't think anything of it.

Now I'm a Christian boy. I read the Bible, I know Jesus and I talk to God, but I wasn't spared from the Devil's malice. I have a monster living inside of me that I can't slay. Nor do I want to.

Hell? You think it's all about fire, don't you? Well it's not. My life is hell. I know everyone says that. But you'll see a life that is really hell.

...a hungry hell.

Dude, that was the shortest chapter/prologue that I've ever written in my entire life! I hope you enjoyed it so far. Just be aware of the issues that I'm dealing with in this story. So please don't tell me I'm so wrong for writing about this or whatever, it's something that needs to be addressed and it needs to be come out because I know a lot of people who are dealing with these issues. So don't bitch to me about it, I'll just roll my eyes. I know what I'm dealing with when I write this story. So yeah, there ya go.

I'm not really happy with the prologue, but it's really hard to get this story started! Seriously, I've been working on this fucking prologue for months! This is all I came up with, so this is what I'm putting out.

I hope you enjoyed!

Review please!
