Chapter 2: Who are you?

Alex decided that it would be best if he confronts his vivid imagination, and turns back to see the 'ghost'.

"Hun?... You're..."

Alex couldn't believe his eyes. The man in front of him was not only extremely handsome but also had this charm that made Alex gets flustered.

Alex cursed in his breath," What the hell! I am not gay but he is making me flush!"

The handsome man smiled. He sat down in the bed and coughed a little.

"Are you okay?"

"Yeah, um who are you?"

"My name is Samael. I have chosen you as my progeny. But first, you must prove that you are capable of handling a fraction of my power."

Samael moved his hand forward and opened his palm. Alex thought it was an invitation and shook Samael's hands. Samael frowned.

"I was not offering a handshake…"

Alex got embarrassed and quickly retracted his hand to his pocket.

'Stupid me- '

Soon a red aura came from Samael's shoulder to his arm, then to his hands and sat in his palms. The red aura started to materialize into a card. The card was shiny blood-red color and had engraved golden light beams originating from its center.

He handed the card to Alex. The moment Alex touched the card it started to turn into the same red aura and traveled up to his arm before disappearing into his body.

"Aarrh, WHAT THE HELL!!! GET IT OUT OF MEEE"

Alex screamed as he was looking for the red aura in his clothes.

"What you just saw was a fraction of my power, which now, resides within you. However, to activate it, you must sign this contract."

Suddenly a paper pops up in Samael's hand. Alex looks at him and asks, "But who are YOU?"

"Uh…, I don't have time for this. Listen, to activate the contract, you must spill a drop of your blood at the bottom of the contract. Once you do that, you will gain some of my abilities. But for your benefit, I have put it in an RPG setup."

Then Samael started mumbling something and before Alex knew he disappeared into thin air.

'Where did he go?'

Alex started looking for the man in his room. After checking everything he sat on his chair looking at the contract, which was lying on the floor. He picked the contract and started reading for the answer to his earlier question.

Before reading the contract, Alex could only conclude two things: Firstly, the man was no human; he could materialize and de-materialize kinds of stuff and finally he was not going to sign the contract. He would have to draw his blood, even if it's a drop.

After looking through the first sentence of the contract he was confident that he would never sign the contract. The contract was written in some weird alien language which was too creepy for him.

Alex decided to sleep and hoped that it was all a bad dream. He put the contract on his study table and lay in his bed. He quickly fell asleep due to mental exhaustion.

........................…

The next morning, he woke up to the alarm at 5:30 A.M.

"Thank God, I'm not late today- WHAT"

He quickly got up and went towards his table. He saw the contract lying on his desk.

"Oh, come on man give me a break."

He went to the bathroom and got freshened. He gets ready for his morning gym for which he paid an annual subscription of 360.99$ and yet isn't regular. He then grabs the contract.

"I will deal with this sometime later." He then shoved the contract into his pocket. He preceded to look for his bicycle, which he found covered in rust thanks to a whole year of negligence it has received from Alex.

He decided it would be better if he jogs to the Gym. When he arrives at the gym, he sees a commotion. He pushes through the crowd to see a fat man on his knees in front of a hot woman who is scolding him.

"So what if I cheated- your fat ass isn't gonna satisfy me."

"Please honey, I am sorry I will work hard to become healthy."

" Leave it, I want a divorce!"

Then from the entry of the gym came a man, he was of Afro-American descent, 6 feet 9 inches tall and with a muscular body. He then looked at the fat man and sneered. He went towards the hot woman and kissed her greedily.

When the fat man saw the muscular man he exclaimed, "Boss! How could you do this to me?"

The Boss looked at the fat man in disdain and said, "Why did I do this to you? Humm... do you think your fat ass deserves this beauty. Oh hell Nah! And also think of this as a punishment!"

The fat man cried, "But I... I... have been working for you so long. I never did any mistake. Then why... why do this to ME!"

The muscular man smirked and said, "Cause you're a RACIST"

The fat man quickly got up from his position and said, "But I am not racist. Hell, I even marched in BLM movement!"

The muscular man shook his head and said, "You're racist cause you're white. Your grandfathers tormented many black slaves. You carry that damned blood in your veins. And now I cucked you."

The fat man sat there in disbelief. The muscular man took the hot woman with him and walked a few steps before turning back and said, "Also, you're Fired!"

Soon the crowd disappeared. Alex went up to the fat man and said, "Hey man get up! what the meaning of sitting like a duck." The fat man looked at Alex and said, "My wifey... she left me."

With that, the fat man started crying. Alex shook his head and went on his way to the Gym. He grabbed the contract in his pocket. He murmured something under his breath.

"I promise my friend. I will avenge you..."
