"Someone who will give you power." They said, their eyes glowing red. "You want it, right? Let me offer it to you and you'll do one little thing for me. Do we have a deal?"
Usually, when a person offers power like that, it is usually very sketchy, and one needs to be cautious. But for a man like that who had nothing going for him, no pride to his name either, he would go to any means to get power and shut the mouths of those who dared to look down on him.
"Sure." He said, grinning at his chance. "So long you give me power, I'll even be your dog."
The red-eyed stranger who approached him grinned and exclaimed,
"Excellent. You'll do a fine job for a hunting dog. And your first target is the hero you despise so much."
The man did not understand at first but then his eyes widened as he realized the stranger was referring to Alice.
"You catch on quick. What is your name?"
"Stein." He proudly said.
