DEVIL'S WORK


THE TELEVISION Starting today, no one is available to leave their house. Unless you are fully vaccinated. You must show proof that you've been vaccinated. If you haven't been vaccinated, and are caught outside of your house. You will be arrested, and will be contained for thirty day's in your county jail. So do yourself a favor people. GET VACCINATED! IF YOU WANT TO ENJOY YOUR LIFE. GRANNY This is some highway robbery bullshit. I'm not getting vaccinated, because I don't need it. Keep that nonsense to yourself. You sell out. THE DEVIL Wow granny, I never knew you would talk like that to the television. GRANNY Who are you? Get out of my house before I call the cops. THE DEVIL Hahaha. You can't call the cops on a spirit granny. GRANNY A spirit?....... Michael is that you? I miss you. I wish that things would have never ended as it did. I love you so much. I can't wait to see you again in the afterlife, my darling. THE DEVIL Wrong again granny! I'm not your dead husband. GRANNY Then who are you? SHOW YOURSELF. THE DEVIL I'm the one and only granny. Some may call me, the wicked one. The prince of darkness. Lucifer. The devil. GRANNY WHY ARE YOU HERE!!!!! THE DEVIL Because granny, I need to convince you on something. GRANNY THERE'S NOTHING YOU CAN CONVINCE ME ON. YOU DEMON!!! THE DEVIL Oh? Let's see shall we?..........please sit this may take awhile. Let me tell you something granny. I came here to give you some information. That may scare you. Your God won't listen to your prayers. So will he save you? You prayed to him for years. He never answered you. I'm here, even when most don't ask for me, I show. Where is your God? When the world is burning. He's just watching your suffering, he doesn't care about you. I do, just give me your soul. I'll take care of you. I will grant you the world. If you come to me. Go get vaccinated, it's good for you. I'll give you twenty million, if you make do. Don't worry I have proof. All you have to do is give into the world that holds you. GRANNY The book of revelation talks about you. How you will try to make people give into you. My soul is already with christ. It's not for sale. I'm not giving into your lies. YOU'RE NOT TAKING MY SOUL!!!! THE DEVIL Damit granny!!! Just give into me. If you don't, you will die alone. GRANNY I rather die alone, than give you my soul. THE DEVIL So be it. THE TELEVISION Later on that day, granny died peacefully in her sleep. All alone with no one knowing of her death. In the sounds of silence. Always Remember, death is more a gift, than selling your soul to the devil himself.
