Predator

#000: 'SATAN'

(1) I am Satan, the ruler of the underworld, the master of all things evil. (2) And as Satan himself, I must say that I have seen and done it all. (3) From tempting the purest of hearts to watching the downfall of civilizations, nothing can surprise me anymore. (4) But there is something that I find particularly interesting about human beings—their willingness to submit to their deepest, darkest desires. (5) It is truly fascinating.

(6) And I have chosen a new one to carry out my bidding.

(7) Today, I have a task for you. (8) A task that will challenge your morals, test your strength, and push you to the limits of your abilities. (9) Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to become Predator.

(10) Predator is not just a name, it's a way of life. (11) A way of life that demands you to be the ultimate hunter, to seek out your prey and to take them down by any means necessary. (12) And your preys, they will be men, strong and graceful during their life time. (13) One hundred of them to be exact. (14) They will soon become the dark soldiers under my empire to prepare for an unspeakable battle as the time approaches near for each of our passing days. (15) Each one must be carefully selected by the predator according to their suitability for the hunt.

(16) But it's not just about the hunt. (17) The predator will have to lure his victims, kidnap them, and subject them to all manners of sadistic perversions as his heart desires. (18) He will have to rape, torture, and ultimately kill each one of them, offering their souls to me as a sacrifice. (19) It is a mission that requires intelligence, creativity, and most importantly, brutality. (20) He will be responsible for each and every one of these things. (21) And I will be watching him every step of the way.

(22) The world is full of sinners and evildoers, and it is up to him to hunt them down and bring them to me. (23) He must use all of his cunning and skill to lure them into his grasp, to make them believe they are safe, and then to strike when they least expect it.

(24) His arsenal includes a variety of tools and weapons, each one designed to inflict pain and suffering upon his prey. (25) From ropes to chains, knives to needles, nothing is off-limits for Predator.

(26) And yet, his greatest weapon is his mind. (27) For Predator is not just a physical force, but a psychological one as well. (28) He knows how to manipulate and coerce, to play with his prey's emotions and desires, to make them want what he wants.

(29) Predator is not a hero, nor is he a villain. (30) He is a force of nature, an unstoppable machine that will not stop until his mission is complete. (31) And when it is, I will reward him with eternal life and power beyond his wildest dreams.

(32) But don't worry, I'm not leaving him alone in this. (33) I have faith in my creations. (34) I know that he will not disappoint me. (35) With each prey he takes down, he will be given a divine keyword that he will operate under throughout the hunt. (36) And as he progresses, he will become stronger, faster, more skilled in his ways. (37) And at the end of it all, when he has completed his tasks and offered me the one hundred soldiers I have requested, he will have proven himself to be worthy of the name Predator.

(38) “So go forth, my child. (39) Begin your hunt. (40) And remember, I am always watching,” Satan commands as he creates Predator, the one who will bring him the souls that he craves. (41) His first divine keyword is ‘Predator’, as a symbol for his pride and superiority above all, and his mission to be the Ultimate Predator.

(42)  “I am Predator.”

(43)  And so I emerge, with a twisted grin on my face. (44) The thrill of the hunt courses through my veins, and I know that this is just the beginning. (45) The beginning of a long journey that will test me in ways I never thought possible. (46) But I am ready. (47) I am Predator. (48) And I will never fail.

(49) I look around me, finding the citizens of Hell screeching before me. (50) They are deafened by the clasps of thunders from within the gargling gaps of the red lava.

(51) “Lo and beware, sinners and evildoers, for Predator is coming!” my voice echoes beyond, as a thousand bats spread upward from within the deep caverns of Hell’s caves. (52) “And when he does, there will be no mercy, no escape, and no salvation," I warn.

(53) With a nod, Satan gives me an authority to narrate my story, unbound by any restrictions but my own. (54) He lands a kiss upon my head, then bids me a farewell as I prepare myself for a hunt.

(55) And thus is why the story of Predator must soon begin to unfold.
