I opened my eyes as the sun hit me directly.

  Looking around I found that I was in a strange new place.

  The world has changed.

  "Am I in the after life?..."

  I questioned the scene before me. Weird mosaic buildings towered over me, yet there was not a single soul in site.

  Speaking of souls, I just remembered. I had sold mine not too long ago. To a Devil.

  And not too long after I remember being caught up in a robbery at a bank and then I was dragged away as a hostage.....and I came to a warehouse...and....and....they gutted me. Probably to destroy any evidence, but to be honest that was a stupid idea in my opinion. THat'll only bring more trouble, but regardless of how I felt I was murdered ruthlessly. And after a while of intense pain, I am now here.

  As I searched around a long sound pierced my ear drums.

  * SCREECH!! *

  As I tried to block it out, it began to get loud and more frequent until I felt like I was about to become insane.

  * SCREECH!! ** SCREECH!! ** SCREECH!! ** SCREECH!! ** SCREECH!! ** SCREECH!! ** SCREECH!! ** SCREECH!! ** SCREECH!! ** SCREECH!! ** SCREECH!! ** SCREECH!! ** SCREECH!! ** SCREECH!! ** SCREECH!! ** SCREECH!! ** SCREECH!! ** SCREECH!! *

  "AHHHH!! AHHHHH!!! STOP!!!! AHHHH!!!!*

  And then I blacked out.
