believe this is alright well you might as well throw me on my grill and cook me because I think you're bluffing."
Charlie jumped out of the seat at the table he and the stranger in black were sitting in and made a b-line towards door and climbed in his car while the stranger in black was laughing. Charlie was shaking like a leaf because he thought this stranger was psychotic and may cause harm to him and Charlie was right because this stranger in black was none other than the devil. Charlie frantically turned the key in the ignition but no response.
The stranger in black approached Charlie's car busted out the driver’s side window and grabbed Charlie by the throat and yanked him out of his car throwing him to the ground saying “If you're not convinced about how serious I am then maybe this will convince you. The stranger said I think the grill is on but there's one thing missing and I believe that is meat. I wonder where I can find some fresh meat, oh I know where you Charlie.""Charlie said not me" then before Charlie could say another word his body was lying on the grill burning. The stranger in black said "well do you believe me now." "Yes, please give me one more chance I'll do anything you ask said Charlie." "One more thing before you go I'm the Devil Ha! Ha! Ha!
The Devil raised Charlie off of the grill and told Charlie if you want to keep your diner and your life you better get to work. The next time you see me I won’t be so forgiving and when I put you on the grill you won't be coming off and I will be dipping your flesh in my steak sauce enjoying every bite while you are screaming for me to stop and give you another chance.
Charlie started placing ads in the local newspaper to hire more cooks and waitresses. Charlie had no problem finding help because his diner was the talk of the town but for anyone that answered Charlie's ads would be their last. Charlie would give his applicants a tour of his diner then as they were filling out the application Charlie would come up behind them and knock them unconscious and give them a lethal injection of poison.
After Charlie's first kill he said "this isn't as hard as I thought it would be." But after a while just like all killers you're bound to slip up and as the body count was getting a little bit too high the police were starting to pay Charlie frequent visits to his diner but it wasn't for food it was about his applicants coming up missing without a trace and Charlie was running out of excuses.
The customers started complaining about their food tasting funny. Because Charlie was giving lethal doses of poison to his victims, there were traces of poison on their flesh which caused the flesh that was cooked at Charlie's diner to taste funny. The truck load of customers that used to fill up Charlie's parking lot were starting to diminish day by day until Charlie was back where he started broke and desperate. As Charlie was getting ready to lock up for the day the Devil decided to pay Charlie a visit. "Well Charlie it looks like you're not doing so hot but I'm here to help you out for the last time said the Devil." "Charlie said really." "Yes Charlie I think I've seen enough of what you can do so I've decided to live up to my end of the bargain said the Devil." "What are you talking about Devil said Charlie." "How quickly do we forget let's see I do believe you signed your soul over to me and now I'm ready to collect and by the way Charlie did you forget to turn the grill off said the Devil."
"No it's not on I turned it off myself just a few minutes ago said Charlie." "It kind a smells like you left some fresh flesh on the grill Charlie said the Devil." "No you must be mistaking said Charlie nervously." "Well I think we should both go over to the grill and see if I'm telling the truth said the Devil." "Why don't you check it out for yourself, I think I left something in my car and I'll just go get it and I won't be long said Charlie."
As Charlie raced towards the door to make a run for it the door locked and Charlie said "Please let me out!! I've done nothing wrong, Please let me out!! Charlie was shaking like a leaf." "I don't think you're going anywhere, the only place you're going to is on the grill. You know something Charlie I don't think I've tried your great cooking and I think now is a good time." The Devil picked Charlie's skinny body up and threw him back on the grill for the last time. As Charlie lay there on the flaming grill screaming and pleading for his life Charlie was slipping in and out of consciousness the Devil was pouring meat tenderizer on Charlie's body preparing Charlie's body for a tasty meal for the Devil." The Devil started hacking pieces of Charlie's body off and cutting his flesh into smaller pieces dipping it into the Devil's own steak sauce while laughing and calling Charlie a stupid fool. "Charlie did you really think I wouldn't come back to get your soul and destroy you, I'm the Devil.
The next morning Charlie's diner was on fire because the Devil turned the grill to the highest setting but the diner didn't burn all the way to the ground. The fire department was able to save over half of Charlie's diner. After careful investigation by the Police they discovered skeletal remains on Charlie's grill that were taken to the forensics departments for analysis which the results came back stating the remains belonged to Charlie but they weren't sure why his body was found on the grill.
The Police report stated that the grill must have had a gas leak and Charlie's lungs were filled up with carbon monoxide which resulted in Charlie's death. It was ruled that Charlie death was an accident. No further investigation was done on Charlie and why his applicants went missing without a trace so the secret went up in flames with Charlie on the grill.
