Can you love the sinner and hate the sin?
[Chapter 1]
Heaven won't take me and hell's afraid I'll take over. I'm a 'man' stuck in between two parallel world known as earth. During the day, I may seem like your normal average guy but when the sun comes down -- not a single satan dare to defy me. Who am I? What am I? Those are questions better left unanswered. But if you are curious, be prepared for the worse.
I breathe fresh blood.
I am a monster without a soul.
I rip out the life from your very heart.
I am the shadow lurking around in the darkness.
I work for the Devil and condemned by the God. I'm am the angel of death.
I have never wanted to do this job for the rest of eternity but I had no choice. The past made me who I am now. The memories of me being a human are slowly fading away but there will be one memory that shall never be erased from my mind. I was so young when both me and my girlfriend got into an accident. It was my fault to begin with -- I was drunk. We had a fight and I wasn't paying any attention to the road -- crash. I hit the lorry right in front of us and we were both seriously injured. I remembered hearing the sound of the ambulance, noises from the people surrounding us and endless flashes from the cameras. Then, everything went all blank. I think the injuries were serious as the pain was really unbearable. I guess she was too. As I layed down on the cold metal bed, I knew I was going to die. That was when I heard a sound. A voice. It was whispering but I could hear it clearly.
"Aum .. are you willing to trade your life for hers?"
Everything was still a blurr. I couldn't even differentiate what's dream or reality anymore. I knew what It said. I'm sure he was not a God or an angel. He sounded different. Evil. The thought of talking to him send shivers down my spine. Despite my endless pain, I could still think with my conscious mind. I knew it was my fault that we're here. I loved her. Just like that, without any second thought, I agreed and signed a contract with the Devil himself. I sold my soul to him. He was a despicable creature but he sticked to his words. My girlfriend continued living on with her life but it saddens me at how fast she forgets me. Even when I was without a soul, my heart aches when I see her kissed another man and called him her husband.
I lost hope in love.
This made working really easy though. Whenever I found my next victim, I used all those hatred to rip the life out of them. It was rather, fun. Everything changed when I received my latest assignment. I was assigned to take the soul of a patient in a hospital. She's suffering from a heart failure and now living with a machine as her 'heart'. Despite the condition of her illness, she's positive that she would heal. Her will to survive is so strong, it amazes me. I heard the nurse calling her name, Aff.
I think ..
I'm in love with my next victim.

This fanfic would be replacing my Disturbia fanfic (which is going to end soon). That is why I've already started with the first chapter.
