Faustiversary
When Faustian deals are made once a year
"Sign here, here, and initial here."
Lindsay Edwards was involved in the final stages of what was introduced to her as a lucrative business deal, and at a young age. She's only 25 years of age, but she's had the goal of being a high-level influencer since junior high. When Lindsay first met with Lucinda Ferrell, the woman who presented the opportunity and the contract that Lindsay was signing, the young influencer saw it all as an offer she couldn't refuse.
"Aren't deals like this usually done online?" asked Lindsay.
"Perhaps," said Lucinda. "However, I prefer seeing pen put to paper. I've made so many big deals happen with this method." The final signatures were written, and after that, both women shook hands.
"Congrats, Lindsay," said Lucinda. "It's been a pleasure doing business with you." As Lucinda walked out of Lindsay's home, she came to a stop, as if she was waiting for something to happen. Meanwhile, Lindsay was set to post about her new deal on her cellphone, but instead, she was screaming in horror, as if something jumped from her phone and captured her.
After hearing Lindsay's scream, Lucinda gave a bit of a contented and sinister laugh as she walked to her car, and after crossing Lindsay's name off her checklist, she cackled once again as her eyes glowed red.
"I love Halloween," boasted Lucinda. "So easy to rack up souls on this very day."
