• It was raining today but it was a good thing the truck had a rain cover. I looked around and took a look at everyone in the truck. There was a man on the left side wearing black long coat. He had the hood over his head therefore covering his face. I looked on my right and saw another man with white, short cut hair. He was still young though but unfortunately I couldn’t continue looking because he sensed me watching. In response, he shot an intense glare at me that made me turn my look away and face the floor.
    All of sudden, a flash came by and immediately I was in another room. I looked up and saw the so called “Devil”.
    “Good afternoon Akkere, I trust your day has been good?” He said as if he knew what had happened. He had the same old laid back mood, and I would think he’d be more serious.
    “What do you want?” I asked in a low voice, I was a little impatient and annoyed at the sudden drop in.
    “I noticed you were entering the job of a soldier and I almost forgot to give you this. “ The devil handed me a red crystal with a black chain necklace attached to it.
    “What is this, and why do you choose now of all to tell me this?” I asked. I knew I had to keep my cool because I knew that this guy was no coward. For all I knew he could have probably set up the whole crystal thing as a trap just so he would get his hands on my soul.
    “It’s part of the regulations with my crystal, and please, call me Larynx.”He replied. I took the crystal and stared at the endless red reflecting from its surface. I felt an unusual presence coming from the crystal. It was like it was being confused on my very soul as it glittered and glowed.
    “Are you still here?” Larynx interrupted. I looked up and saw Larynx pulling a large box
    “In this box, is a treasure of power” Larynx opened the box and revealed marble like spheres each with their own color and size.

    “There a mini arsenal and each one have a unique power that will aid you greatly on the battle front. Right now you have something called a soul account which will be used to mark the souls you have released from the bodies of the humans or creatures in the community of your galaxy. You can use these as a currency to buy these marbles.” It seemed like most of this was a game to get the most powers. I knew he was trying to give me a reason to kill and in a way work for him.
    “Being that you are the recipient of the Devil’s crystal I think you should receive the crystal shard and this” Larynx handed me a black marble.

    “Well then with that being said I bid you farewell and hope you crack some skulls, don’t forget to read the manual, most idiots don’t and now there all dead.” Larynx then waved at me and all of a sudden a flash came and I was back in the truck, everything was as it was before. I searched my pockets and found the book and the black marble. The book had a solid red cover with golden letters that embroidered the term “The guide to the devil’s crystal” I opened the book and began reading.
