Ariel watched from the shadows, breathing evenly and watching the man as he walked past. He seemed so confident, so sure of himself. The fool.

She'd been watching him for a while and she knew his entire schedule by heart. She marvelled at the length humans went to get what they wanted. Since she'd arrived in the underworld, by Lucifer's side, she'd been given one job. It was a job Lucifer told her was more important than any other. He smiled and told her he'd been waiting for someone like her to carry out this most important of tasks.

She was given the task of collecting all the human souls owed to Lucifer.

She scoffed as she thought about the number of humans who had brokered deals with the devil, exchanging their souls for wealth and power. She scoffed, greed was the main flaw of mankind. She knew a lot of them never considered that their actual souls would actually be taken and she was happy to be the one sent to retrieve the prize.

Her mind wandered for a bit and she wondered what he said he was going to tell her. Since they'd arrived, Lucifer had been hinting at telling her something important, once she was able to collect all fifty souls he was owed for that month. So far, she'd collected forty nine.

The fiftieth had just walked past her.

She levitated up the side of the building, landing on the roof as the man walked. She knew exactly where he was headed. He had acquired a taste for bondage and sadomasochism and was headed towards his favorite club through an alley.

She watched him turn into the alleyway, looking left an right.

Should have looked up too bud she thought dryly and jumped down.

The man looked terrified as she landed noiselessly in front or him.

"Hello. I've come for your soul"

"My what?" the confused man stammered and she rolled her eyes and placed her palm on his chest. He promptly began to convulse as she ripped a glowing essence from within him, putting it into a special marked bottle.

The man fell to the ground, dead.
