The Devil and Kathryn H.

As she was driving home from a concert on a Friday in January, Kathryn was concentrating on

the road and the music to which she was listening. She had just had a great time with friends at

the concert, and was tired from all of the dancing and being up late. All of a sudden, she hit a

patch of black ice and slid right off of the road into a snow bank.

As she came to her senses and realized what happened, she picked up her phone to try and

call for help. It was then when she realized that she had no battery left in her phone. So, she

decided to put on her hazard lights and stand out side of her car and try to signal someone for

help. The main problem with this was the fact that almost no one was on the same road as she was.

She waited for about half an hour until someone pulled over to help her.

This person said that he would be willing to help her get back onto the road if he got

something in return. Kathryn said, “Ok… what do you want?” The person replied, “I want you do

devote your life to making other people suffer. I think that you could have a lot of fun with it.

I sure do…” Kathryn is not the type to hurt others, under normal circumstances, but she really

could not afford to be stranded on the side of the road for any longer. She agreed to devote her

life to evil. She had just made a deal with the devil.

Kathryn got home safely and went to sleep. When she woke up the next morning, she found

herself to have almost no control over her own actions, as if she was under a spell. Kathryn got

dressed, and went to school. On the way there, she was driving like a maniac, running people off

of the road, causing collisions, all kinds of stuff. When she got into school, she was booking and

tagging people in the halls and completely ignoring teachers, and talking while classmates were

trying to ask a question. She has sold her soul to the devil.

Beware, all of you motorists, you can meet the devil on the road of life.
