Dogmatic Retribution

He sat by the computer with the door open smoking a cigarette. His muscles ached because he hadn't eaten much in days. He just sat there and wrote down stories of deadly fires all day.
There are forces of fate that wander the earth with blood lust, and we don't even know they exist. This man was about to get the lesson that we are taught for the wrong thoughts and actions that attract dark evil.

"A warm fire brewed in the hearth and Julia went for the door.
This was no ordinary door, this was a cabin door from when they didn't make locks, only heavy wooden bars with metal on the ends.
Julia was an athletic girl but she still just barely lifted to let her boyfriend in."

In the back of his computer a tiny chip of a screw on a fan came off and made a noise, not unlike that of an airplane propeller. He didn't notice though, because he wrote his own death on the page with vigor and joviality.

‎"'Hey babe, you smell something?'
'No jack, I been smoking cigarettes in the house, now come here and kiss me.'
Jack picked up the wooden bar and struggled to get it on the latch and went straight to work. What he didn't know was that the metal had heated up and the door was slowly melting away."

The fan snapped and flew into an electrical wire that made the screen start to flicker but not completely go out.

"As the metal turned molten and the door burst into flames, They began to notice there might be a problem. As Julia ran into the living room, she noticed the entire outside of the house was on flames, burning its way inside."

The conflagration caught the rubber on his shoes but he was so intensely into the story that he actually believed he was dreaming and feeling the scenario.

"All of a sudden, every window burst at once. Shards of glass peppered every inch of the cabin, ricocheting and pounding even the smallest of niches. Jack and Julia fell to the floor, unconscious."

As his skin started to melt he began to notice that he was on fire but it was too late as he walked to the shower, turned on the shower, and left a skeleton on the tile.

"Jack and Julia awoke being burned alive. They leaped out through a shattered window and escaped with their major lacerations, third degree burns and psychological issues. Their recovery seemed endless but they were healed and they lived.

THE END.
