"You can't do anything, sooner or later you will die, and everything will be mine, so just give it up already," a dark figure said while looking at a young man lying on a bed.

"You always say that but till now you haven't done anything, and I don't even have anything to give you, am already on my deathbed, so I don't know what you will gain," the young man said while laughing

" Stupid brat, you really are going to die and you are still laughing, just give me control over your body then," the dark figure said, he was getting frustrated by the attitude of the young man, who was already close to death but still have the energy to laugh.

"So that's what you are after, My body, but am sorry I can't give it to you, It is the only thing I have and I can't allow you to pollute it, with your unholy mind, and how can you even do that, this is just a dream, definitely my last one," the young man said as he closed his eyes remember his life.

He remembered living a normal teenage life, going to school, getting drunk doing drugs, and all other naughty things, his mother died when he was 12, so he lived with his dad, who was always busy, so he had the chance to do anything he wanted, sneaking out of the house going to party when he turned 17, he was diagnosed with Leukemia, his father tried everything he could but the doctors couldn't do anything about it.

His blood was drained, but every time his blood got drained and replaced, he always ended up with the same diagnosis, his father changed his hospital claiming that they didn't know what they were doing, but all the other hospitals couldn't find anything wrong with him except the Leukemia.

During those periods he had been having the same dream at first he was scared shitless but as time went on he got used to the dream.

Inside his dream, he always sees a dark figure, and every time he tries to talk to the figure, the figure disappears leaving him in total darkness he starts hearing voices, and voices of people crying loudly, at first he thinks he was going crazy.

He once heard his mother's voice calling him, he didn't answer then the mother started crying begging him and telling him that she was lonely and she wanted to see her children, he could not handle it anymore so he ran after the voice.

He ran and ran for God knows how long, anytime he woke up from the dream, he would wake up screaming then the doctors would drain his blood giving him a few minutes of peace as he would always talk to his family then he would fall asleep, which to his family was a coma, he would resume the same dream like it had a save point and he would continue running after the voice till eventually, he came across a door.

It was a door standing in the middle of nowhere he walked past the door and he saw the same dark figure he saw when he first started to have a strange dream since then the figure had been asking him for one thing and that was the control over his body and since then he never woke up from the dream.

To the other world he had been in a coma for 3 years with his condition getting worse by the day, the doctor advised his family to pull the plug because even if they didn't there was no way of him getting better anytime soon and his family would just be wasting money.

It broke his family's heart but they decided to spend the next few months with him.

Inside his dream, the dark figure kept tormenting him telling him his family would soon give up on him, to which he just smiled saying he wouldn't mind because he wanted them to enjoy their life instead of worrying about him.

The figure kept asking for his body at one point he got so mad that he almost gave up, but he remembered his family and he didn't want to worry them anymore he decided not to.

Presently he was having the same conversation with the dark figure, but this one was different from the other conversation they had before because He could feel death breathing behind him, he could feel death's breath on his neck.

"Say, what do you want to do with my body, what will you do with it if I give it to you?" He started having second thoughts about dying at first he was okay with the thought of dying but as he got close to it he started to have doubt and regret, he kept thinking about his family and how he would never see them again, how everybody would forget about him in few years.

Those thoughts plaque his mind, and he wanted to live "I don't know probably kill a lot of people, it's been a while since I have been out in the world, I wonder what the outside world looks like" the dark figure said with a wide grin on his face, he started picturing killing people.

The young man was shocked by what the dark figure said " Are you an evil spirit or something, Why would you kill people Can't you just live happily with my family"

"For your first question no I am not an evil spirit, secondly don't classify me with those weak creatures and thirdly your family would be the first I kill before killing another person" the dark figure replied.

" Yeah forgot about it, I will just die in peace, go look for another body to steal, you aren't getting mine," the young man said while turning over to face the other side of the dark room he was in.

'Damn it, that curse is still active, why did I say those words to him, when I am trying to take over his body, Am getting weak, it had been years since I ate anything properly, and draining his blood is not enough for me to survive another year, I need to take control over his body' the dark figure kept thinking of ways to gain control over the young man's body.

"I can't believe I have to use this, how about we make a contract," the dark figure said with a frown on his face, he believed that someone of his standard should not make a contract with a weak being like the young man in his presence.

"What kind of contract, if it involves killing people am out, and can you even heal my body, this is just a dream," the young man said as he turned to face the dark figure.

"Yes, this is a dream but it's also not a dream, and yes I can heal your sick body. First, you would sign a Devil contract with me, I would have control over your body 3 days a month, and don't worry I wouldn't kill anybody" A contract appeared in the dark figure's hand.

"Really, you could heal my sick body, all this while and you said nothing, and how am I sure you would follow the rules if I sign the what did you call it again Devil's Contract" as the young man said the last part something click inside his head.

"Wait, you are the devil, the blood of Jesus, I almost signed a contract with the devil, get away from me you devil I will never sign a contract with you" the young man shouted as he ran far away from the dark figure.

The dark figure was extremely frustrated as he sighed " I am not the devil, I am a devil, there's nothing called the Devil, there is a lot of devil in this world and I am one of them and if you read the contract you would see that even I can't go against it, the deals are I would heal your sick body and in return, I would have control over your body for 3 times a month " the dark figure explained to the young man.

"Those are the words, you use to entangle people, I will not be part of it no matter what you say, I am not signing the damn contract, just get away from me" the young man shouted again moving even farther away from the dark figure.

"Brat, listen to me You will die if you don't sign this contract, and you will never see your family again, Are you happy with that, I can just find another willing person that will give me control over their body without a contract, so think well before you make a stupid decision" the dark figure was extremely angry that he threw the contract towards the young man with great speed, the contract fell in front of the young man.

'I need him to believe he needs me while thinking I have other choices even though I don't have them, I can't leave this place and he is the only one who has entered into this place in ages, oh I know what to say next' the dark figure said to himself.

" If you don't accept the contract, I will just get another body and that family you love so dearly I will find them and I will kill them, Imagine how tasty their flesh would be, thinking about, it don't sign the contract, I don't need you anymore" the dark figure snapped his finger and the door opened, it was the same door the young man entered previously.
