The Devil's Cry
By: Aaron Anderson
It was a dark, cold summer night. Aaron was walking home after staying with his girlfriend for the day. It wouldn't have been so bad but Aaron had just realized that the girl he was with, wasn't the one he wanted to be with so he dumped her, thinking that the girl he wanted to be with who supposedly wanted to be with him would date him. He was wrong when he found out that he had just dumped Ashley for a girl he wasn't even going to get his temper flared and the Devil was born that offal night. Every year since on that exact night and time that the devil came out you can hear the menacing growl, now known as the Devil's cry. It earned this name because every year it made the same noise that made every body stop and look over their shoulder. The one person that didn't look over her shoulder would soon find out the reason that they all looked over their shoulders every time they heard the call. The devil sprung on his pray biting her neck, drinking the sweet red nectar that came out but just before she died he closed the hole and she wasn't dead nor undead she was his eternal slave forever and always. He took her back to where he stays every day except the night of August 11. The bad thing about that date is not the fact that that is the night of the devil's cry but that that was Aaron's birthday. He was young and didn't know what he was doing when he broke up with Ashley. He thought it was the right thing to do but he had changed his mind when he found out that Bri wasn't ever planning on dating him just destroying his life. That was her one goal from the beginning. He would have been able to hold in the devil but where it happened to him at such a young age he didn't have the experience that he needed to keep the devil subsided. At the time that it all happened he didn't even know that the devil was inside him until it broke free and ended his life as he knew it for good. He was forced to live a half life, a cursed life. He could only come out on the day that the devil broke free. He later learned that this devil was actually his guardian angel. He came out to protect Aaron even though Aaron thought it was to destroy him it was really that the devil was his "cult of personality" if you will. It had its own way of thinking so even though Aaron thought he was being destroyed he was just really being saved from the pain of the break up and the pain that he would soon cause to many people. He would end up killing the only girl that he ever fell in love with because she said she just wanted to be friends and it set Aaron's temper on the rise. He left before he hurt the only girl that had never purposely hurt him. He knew that he would miss her but it was better for her sake this way. He walked through the stormy night into the blazing heat but it didn't affect him pretty much at all he was to busy thinking about Bri." if you will.
