[ WP ] Demons and Angels when reaching puberty , are assigned a human to torment/protect till their death . This is your first human , however you are hearing rumors from the veterans that this human is on his sixth demon/angel and no one knows what happened to the last five .

`` Ah, a new one. I am sure you know my name. May I ask what your name is?'' he said with a friendly smile on his face, hand strechted towards me. Astounding! There was not a flicker of fear in his eyes. 
 
 `` Ezra. My name is Ezra the Destroyer'', I said a little confused and upset. I had made a big deal about my entrance. I had practiced for months. I put it all out there: smoke, lightning, dark voice from the void... and for what? Nothing. The worm did n't even flinch! 
 
 `` Outstanding!'' He sayd with a big grin on his face. He grabbed my hand and shaked it eagerly. `` So nice to meet you Ezra the Destroyer!'' 
 
 `` Er... nice to meet you too?'' They had n't prepared me for this. They had taught us that the humans would swaet and shiver. That they would be paralyzed by fear when they saw one of us. And that if we put on a good show on our entry- which I did if I dare say- they might even faint! But not this one. This one was just gleaming at me. Something was off. The veterans did warn me after all. I needed to be careful here. No one knew what kind of game he was playing. 
 
 `` Please Ezra, sit down!'' He said cheerfully. `` Can I bring you something to drink?'' 
 He ushered me into a chair next to a big dining table, that was covered in a white sheet with squares on it. There were boxes with dice on the table and an army of small, painted figures. 
 
 `` What is this?'' I asked him. I got ta admit that I was pretty embarrased by my weak performance. But I was too confused and also too curious to worry about it much longer. 
 
 `` Oh that? That is a D & D map. All of your other friends played it with me. They allowed me one last time of fun before the torturing would start and I think they rather enjoyed it. In fact, they liked it so much they decided to not torture me after all. We are D & D buddies now and they stop by once in a while to play'', he explained, smiling. He turned around to walk into the kitchen next to the living room. As he walked he said:'' I was hoping that you would grant me that wish too. I am sure you will love the game! I have a whole story prepared for you. And maybe you will also like the game so much that you will wan na come back to play with us.'' 
 
 He opened the fridge and poored me a drink of water. As he was busy in the kitchen I picked up one of the small figurines. They were delecatly painted. I could tell that he had put a lot of effort into making these. 
 
 `` Oh, I see you like my champions? That`s what I call them but they are simply figures we will need to play the game'', he explained as he put my glass of water infront of me. 
 
 `` Before we start you will have to make a character'', he continued. He walked around the table and grabbed a bunch of books. *Monster Manual*, *Dungeon Master's Guide* and *Player's Handbook*. `` We need to go through these to make you a character. I think you would be a terrific demon!'' He sounded very excited about this. He opened the books and then looked at me startled. `` You want to play, do n't you?'' 
 
 I thought about that for a few seconds. He said the others played with him to grand him a last wish. So I could do it too. But then, we did n't really know what happened to others. If they really stayed to be D & D buddies with him then they would n't really be allowed to coma back to the Underworld before he was dead ( because they would be assigned a new human and they would n't have time to play anymore ). So it did make sense to some degree. Suddenly I was hooked. If my fellow deamons had decided to stay away just to play this game, then this game must be *really* good. 
 
 `` Yes! I will play'', I said enthusiatstic. The big wide smile returned to his face. 
 
 `` Ok! Let's make you a character!'' 
 
 It took a good while to create my character. It was slightly tedious but also fun. As we made my character, he explaines the game to me. He would be the Dungeon Master and I would be the player. He said that some of the other demons might join us later. One of them usually came by ever so often. When we were done making my character- a tiefling, that is out to fulfill his first mission to become a real demon- I was hyped. He drew a little map for me and said that I should choose one of the figurines to resemble my character. I picked a demon like creature and put it on the map. 
 
 `` Oh, you should kiss it for good luck. That always helps'', he said smiling. So I did. I kissed the little creature and put in on the board. As soon as the little plastic base hit the map, my stomach started turning. My body cramped in pain and my vision blurred. 
 
 `` Wha... urgh... what is happening?!?'' I moaned. My body was a ball of pain now. Wave after wave of pure agony ran through me. I tried to focus my eyes on him. A cool, smiling face. Not flinching. `` What are you doing?'' I groaned as I slipped from my chair and fell on my back. I spat blood. The pain became unbearable. I rolled on the floor like a pityfull ball of pain. It was killing me. I rolled over and my eyes glanced over the bottom of the table. I was able to focus long enough to see a pentagram glowing slightly in the semi dark. *That bastard! It has been a trap all along! *
