So Paint It Black and Take It Back.

Chapter One: Plan A's in the works..

It was just past 2 A.M. on a rainy September night, and she was walking home from work, iPod blasting, jet black hair dripping, body shivering. Turning the corner, she continued up her street.

Upon reaching her house, she noticed a man with a cane standing in front of the gate. He wore a long coat, and slightly resembled Peter Fonda. She continued to stare at him, hoping that he would realize he was blocking her way and let her through. He did not move.

"Um, yeah, can you please move? I need to get into my house, it's pouring out here." she spoke in a slightly annoyed tone. She couldn't see his eyes, but she felt them burning holes in her.

"Are you Eveliina Lehtomäki?" he asked straightly.

She blew her white bangs out of her eyes, "Depends, who wants to know?"

"Oh, that's not of much importance," the man started. "I just need to speak with Ms. Lehtomäki. This is her house, is she home?"

"Still depends." she crossed her arms in front of her chest, and squinted her black-lined emerald eyes, "Who wants to know?"

"I am just a man."

She wanted so bad to punch this guy, but then she noticed the skull on his cane and it all came flooding back to her. "Cut it, Mephistopheles. I know it's you." she said to him, "You know, you should really look into getting a new cane, one without the skull, it's a huge giveaway."

Mephistopheles glanced down at his cane, "So you are Eveliina Lehtomäki?"

She rolled her eyes, "No shit, Sherlock."

Mephistopheles smiled proudly, "Then you're aware that Blackheart has escaped, yet again."

"What?" Eveliina almost choked on her own tounge, "Blackheart? Wasn't he killed by that Blaze guy three months ago?"

Mephistopheles grinned, "Yes, he was. But, thanks to you he's acquired your spontaneous cellular regeneration and he regenerated."

"Then why are you telling me about this? Shouldn't you be out sending your precious rider after him?" Eveliina asked.

He knew she was right and he had Blaze saved for Plan B. "Because, you're the only person he trusts. I want you to find him and bring him back to Hell so I can deal with him."

Eveliina sighed, "Fine."

Mephistopheles smiled, "Good."

"And if I don't?" Eveliina asked, but before she could get an answer, Mephistopheles vanished.

Eveliina scoffed and went inside.
