There was a boy sitting all alone. Rain soaked his untamed brown hair and his torn clothing. He was sitting on the curb watching people running to their homes or cars, clenching their umbrellas as tight as they could. When they walked by no one would spare a second glance, let alone any money for the soaked top hat that lay on his lap.
He sat there, crying. I ran by him, just like everyone else.
“They said you changed” he snarled to no one in particular
He spoke in an unnaturally deep tine.
“They said you were kind” he continued, growing steadily louder.
His voice was so loud at this point that the ground shook when he spoke.
“They lied” He whispered.
The winds of the storm grew stronger and wilder, blowing away his hat. The clouds twisted into a spiral that descended to the ground, destroying all in its path. The homeless boy began to levitate off the ground as if the winds swept him into the air.
“I gave you your chance” he growled, addressing everyone around him.
Lightning started zapping random buildings around the city, causing explosions and setting fires. Suddenly the wind became even faster, I was caught off guard and I fell. He snapped his head in my direction and looked at me.
“A-are you the devil?” I stuttered, fearing that I would lose my life.
“On the contrary” he said as I stared into his deep blue eyes.
