Synopsis

Chapter 1 - Desperation

"To hell with this clubs must we have to do it " Asher kept on thinking as he and his best friend

walked back home.Well the school does have a system of the students having to train ever since 'THE FLOW '

was discovered and only 20-30% of mankind could use magic and their's still the fact that those who live 

in this in town have to suffer to earn a living. And i'm part of this tragedy my mom is sick and my sister is still has school 

to go to normally this could not be a problem but i don't have a father that's why i had to join a gang to earn money

* CLICK *

[New message]

[Come to the base at six o clock and don't be late]

Perfect timing i joined the Blackhood gang not even my sister or my best friend knows about it

"So are you coming over my place today i got the latest game to play SAO" Finn asked noticing i was in 

deep thought i had to turn down his offer because of the urgent message from the gang. After seperating our ways 

i went home to change clothes " You off for another job " Lily asked seeing i was in a rush "Yeah it's urgent 

and i need to be there on time so i'll see you later " Asher said while leaving the room.

 After running for almost twenty-five minutes i reached the blackhood base "You are much early then the time"

the leader said as Asher was panting, the lineutant told the details for the mission, it was a huge theft plot 

and it was paying alot the only problem that i wasn't going alone the leader and some other high ranked members where

going.

Reaching the destination un-noticable we then broke into the company easily, the mission was the retrive some highly

radioactive chemical "For the leader to come on this mission it means that the job is very de" Asher thought as the transferred the 

chemical into some drums. We finally finished it and we were about to leave.

*SCREEEEAAM*

"There has been an arcane outbreak and the are closing in fast" One of the ranked member said as we were ordered to move out.

On the way out we crushed into the police "STOP BLACKHOOD gang" the police said trying to retreat from the other side

*BOOOOM*

"Ahhhhhhhhh" the beast stromed into the room turning to the leader for orders and he was immediately eaten by a Terragon

"Am i going to die here " Asher kept panicking, "Hey Asher, keep your head in the game" Lee shouted at me as the rest of the members escaped

through a hole made from the beast, immediately as we got out the police started attacking but i was luck to be with the lineutant who carried me on

his bike, we both covered your face from the police and rode off.

While trying to escape the lineutant was shot as a police was after us, entering a dark alley the lineutant opened sewer and told to get out of here.

*PANTS*PANTS*SPLASH*

After covering some distance Asher stopped to rest *Sobbing* "Why is this happening to me, the police going to come after me, first i need to get home"Asher

said as he climbed up the sewer.

Walking for atleast ten minutes i finally reached home

*DOORS OPEN*

"Asher is that you"Lily said as she ran to see who opened the door, seeing how i was dirty she told me to go bath and come to dinner table for some food

Reflecting on what just happened i could not bring himself to eat any food so he went to bed 

The next day i went ot school to mentioning a word about what happened to my sister yesterday.

"What if the police comes after me what will happen to Lily and my mom" Asher kept thinking till his thought was brought to an end by his friend

"Hey dude, are you okay you looked deep in your thoughts"Finn asked while shaking me

"Yeah i'm good just had a bad dream" he replied

After classes i got a message from the doctor taking cae of my mom

[Asher come here now]

"Finn i'll see you later i have to checked on my mom" Asher said and stormed away

Reaching the doctor office and recieving some bad news

"Please, Doc, you have to help me," Asher begged, clutching the worn leather satchel containing his last hopes. 

Dr.Elara's expression softened, but her words remained firm. "Asher, I've told you, there's nothing more i can do. Your mother's 

illness...it's beyond my expertise."

Asher's grip on the satchel tightened, "There has to be something.Anyone.Please "He thought of his mother's frail smile, his sister's tears

As he stepped out of the office to the alley, "Anyone,anything...help me." The words barel left his lips when the air shifted,heavy with an otherworldy presence.

A figured emerged from the shadows, its eyes burning with an ethernal fire.

"I am Baal, Lord of the Abyss," the being declared, its voice like thunder in Asher's mind."Your plea has been heard, mortal.I shall grant you power beyond your widest reams..but at a price."

Asher' heart skipped a beat. He sensed the weight of Baal's words, the danger and promise intertwined like a serpent's coils.

"What price?" Asher asked, his voice barel above a whisper.Baal's smile was a cold, calculated thing. "Your soul, mortal.A small price to pay

for the power to save your mother, your family... and yourself."

Asher hesitated, torn between desperation and fear, as he gazed into Baal's burning eyes, Asher knew his choice was made.

"i accept."

The darkness closed in, and Asher's journey into the abyss began.
