    {It was the year 2000, the time was 6:30PM}

    You were walking alone in the woods, hands in your pockets. You had just gotten into an argument with your mother. A few hours earlier, the argument was about her warnings, and how your life doesn't seem to be going in the right direction.

    Your Grandfather was a well known person in the community, well respected and a hard worker, but he had some problems. Gambling, drugs, and mental issues. Your Grandfather suddenly stopped arriving to work, and he began wandering away from home for a long time, and before he disappeared he told your mother to be careful if she ever had children, to make sure they never 'go to the train tracks'

    And he had gone missing. 15 years later your mother had you. Ever since then, your mother was extremely adamant on leading you on the 'right path' making sure you don't end up like your Grandfather. But unfortunately you didn't listen to her warnings, you rebeled against her, and disregarded her words. You even started doing acid.

    Tonight was very unpleasant, other than the argument with your mother, you had just hallucinated and saw your Grandfather, bloody and decomposed, his body covered in maggots, laughing and rambling.

    You had to clear your mind, so you kept walking, coming out of the woods, and you are greeted by an old, rusted railroad that looks like it hasn't been used in years. It had just rained a moment earlier so the tracks were wet. As you walked along the tracks, you saw something in the distance on a hill. It looked like a person. They started to slowly approach you until they were now walking with you

    "It's a nice night for a walk, would ya' mind if I joined you?"

    He asks. He wore a mask, so his face wasn't visible. He also had a black suit, a fedora, and briefcase. Unknown to you, this man was The Devil himself.
