This is Axel's Story and how he went from abused, to ambitious. From ambitious to evil. From evil to bad, and from bad, to seeing the light.

Axel- THe beginning

I watched as my dad paced back and forth. It got annoying really. Axel had done nothing wrong in his opinion. His dad had never really loved him. His dad said he did, but no love had ever come to Axel.
All Axel did was get back handed and slapped. Once he had even got pistol whipped. Every dad the three year-old Axel got bruised and broken. Everyday he bled, cried, and screamed. No-one heard, or if the did, they never bothered to help him.

One day though all this would change. When Axel was four, a knock was sounded outside of his window. Axel watched cautiously as a very pale man approached. His eyes were white, and an evil grin was glued onto his face. A black hood hid the man's head, and a blood red spear was in his right hand. The man watched as Axel shifted among the bed. Should he open the window? Axels fingers reached against the cold glass and opened up the window. His heart pounded so loud he was surprised his dad didn't hear it.

The man looked at the window in disgust and disappeared. Axel's pale blue eyes went wide in surprise. A small cough was heard from behind and as Axel turned around the man was at the edge of the bed. Axel stared in disbelief, "How did you do that?"

The man lifted his hood revealing the rest of his face. His black hair was long and greasy looking. The strangest thing, however,
were the red horns upon his head. Axel kept searching the man, and along his backside a red pointed, thin tail stuck out. In a snakelike voice the man whispered, "That's the mystery, isn't it?"

Axel gulped in horrification. What did this man want with him? He was strange and seemed nonhuman. Did his father send him there to punish Axel? Axel asked winded, "Why are you here, and who are you?"

The man sat down on Axel's black bed and asked in faded whisper, "I'm the Devil, and I'm here to offer you a deal, if you'll except it."

Axel knew nothing about the Devil. Not the horrors of him, or what would happen. All his thoughts were in mixed confusion. How would he help Axel? Could the Devil possibly get him out of his dad's house? Would he be safe from his dad's beatings? Finally Axel came to a decision that would effect him forever, "I accept."
