Open Call

Business is booming and there's no end in sight, Death came to a huge decision tonight. He called in his partners Pain and Sorrow and said "we're holding auditions tomorrow." "Auditions, Pain asked, what are you looking for?" For a third partner and he reached for the door. The very next morning hanging there on the wall, was a huge flyer reading "DEATH'S OPEN CALL" Come one come all but you better give your best audition, because we only need to fill one position. As the day moved along Sorrow watched in disbelief, next in the line was his old buddy Grief. Grief walked in and handed them his lengthy resume', thank you for coming friend you'll know by the end of the day! The auditions had been going on steady for hours, the decision would be tough, they all had great powers. Next in line would be Misery and he gave them his best, "Thank you for coming, wait outside with the rest". Death having some free time sat in on the last few, after over 1000 auditions it was now time to choose. Death left the decision up to Pain and Sorrow; they would just fill him in by tomorrow. All that he asked was they used their best discretion, when suddenly in walked the vixen Depression. With eyes dark as night dressed all in black, she walked to the stage and the pair just sat back. She said, "Am I too late for this open call? I just happened to notice the flyer on the wall." We'll give you a shot now show us what you can do; this is only because we've both heard of you. They told her to give it her best shot and that's just what she did, for her first victim a sweet little kid. His name was Billy he was only 13, she found him alone sitting out on a swing. You see he had just lost his parents in a huge fire; to be with them again was his only desire. She climbed in his head and she did her thing, Billy took his life right there on the swing. "WOW" they exclaimed lady you are good, come with us now to see the "man with the hood". A new chapter has started with Death’s open call and it all started will a flyer on the wall. No longer a trio, now a quartet, a new force to be reckoned with this you can bet!
