| rdfs:comment | - In Medieval Europe, three boys meet a charming teenager who claims to be an angel; in fact, his name is Satan. Predictably, no good comes out of this. Also known as No. 44, The Mysterious Stranger is one of Mark Twain's last works that he was unable to finish before his death. It was written just after his wife and favorite daughter died and Twain entered financial trouble, so it was much more vicious and depressing than any of his other works. There are three different versions of the work in varying degrees of completion, but all involve the angel Satan using his powers to show how much of a Crapsack World we live in.
- Satan 2.0 was created by Mark Tw*t during the World War II, unfortunately, the book where Satan 2.0 was trapped fell into the hands of The Red Guy. The Red Guy said a few of words and released Satan 2.0 from the book. The Mysterious Stranger proceeded to kill Mark Tw*t cutting him in half. Since then, The Mysterious Stranger was named the son of The Red Guy. He with his friends Cthulhu, Hexxus, Black Hiver and Herobrine tortured Zalgo, the idiotic faggot from the hell for all the eternity. Satan 2.0 was beat one day by Tirek because he was jealous of him.

| abstract | - One summer morning a group of young teens were strolling around the neighborhood. On the opposite end of the street they could see a lonely figure walking in all black clothing with his hoodie donned over his head. They began to laugh and make crude comments to one another before one of the boys showed his bravery. “Hey motherfucker, it’s the middle of summer and you’re dressed like that? Are you walking to your butt buddy back at home to have hardcore anal sex? Afraid someone will see you?! FUCKING FAGGOT!” he shouted as the figure kept walking. The group continued on with their trip as they laughed in mockery. Not long after the group had witnessed the strange man disappear did they find themselves in his sight. He turned the corner and stopped dead in his tracks as one of the other boys shouted more crude remarks at the tall figure. The man paid no attention to the young child as he lightly brushed past him. “That’s right, keep walking motherfucker!” he shouted in confidence as his friends cheered him on. They witnessed the man go up a path into a home before he slammed the door. “Pfft, let’s go guys. That punk ass isn’t worth our time,” the boy said before the man exited his house once again. His hands were in the front pocket of his sweatshirt as he made his way closer to them. “Back for more, bitch?” he spoke with a sly grin as the tall figure approached him. He slammed his hands against his chest to try intimidating the man, but failed miserably. “Take a shot at me and your ass goes off to jail!” he spoke with a hint of fear as he stepped back a bit. Muffled breathing could be heard from under the hood. The group started to move past him and gestured for their friend to keep with them before something happened. This did not stop the man from following them. He caught up within moments and pulled one hand from the pocket to reveal a 9mm pistol. The boy stopped dead in his shoes as he felt the cold steel of the barrel pressed firmly against his head. The others turned and shouted with fear. The man had no care for his action, for all they knew he did not even exist. A bead of sweat ran down the young boy’s brow as he felt regret about his comments from earlier. The tension finally broke as the trigger was pulled and splattered brain matter and skull fragments all over the other teens. They broke out in fear and panic for their lives before running away. The boy fell to his knees and then onto the Hellish asphalt; a thick stream of crimson poured down a nearby sewage drain. The other teens were not far out of sight. He followed after and found one of the girls hiding behind a bush. She sobbed in fear as she fell back and pleaded for her life. Closing her eyes, the man bent down and pulled her by her ponytail before beheading her. Still gripping the ponytail, he swung her head and tossed it ahead until it landed near the other girl. She screeched like a banshee and this led him straight to her. He approached her without warning and blasted several shots into her head and torso. A rustle of nearby shrubs caught his attention and he discovered the final boy’s location. Reaching inside he snatched the collar of his shirt and pulled him out as he pushed him closer to the street. Standing by the street in wait for a car to pass, they stood in silence. “Please, mister, I’m sorry about what was said! Please don’t hurt me!” he pleaded to the silent man in hopes that he would listen. A car could be heard speeding their way. The driver was intoxicated and swerved from side-to-side. As he grew closer, the man pushed the boy into the street right as he sped by. The young teen flew 20 yards and collided with a tree branch that had impaled him. The man stumbled off into the daylight and never looked back. “Earlier today, four young teens were found viciously slaughtered. One of which was hit by an intoxicated motorist. No motive or lead can be found to tie these heinous crimes to a suspect. The motorist has been taken into custody and claims he witnessed the boy who he had hit just jumped into the street as if a suicide attempt.

As an interesting side-note, it has long been suspected that this was one of the works that inspired Neon Genesis Evangelion, particularily the character of Kaworu. Sadamoto, writer of the NGE Manga, has practically admitted as such. The full text can be found here.
* Above Good and Evil: True for all angels.
* All Just a Dream... "a grotesque and foolish dream."
* And I Must Scream: The narrator's fate at the end.
* Animated Adaptation: The Adventures of Mark Twain movie. Found here.
* Author Existence Failure
* Blue and Orange Morality: Satan may follow this.
* Butterfly of Doom: Played with. No Time Travel is involved, but Satan reveals that even the smallest detail like opening a window can be a Matter of Life and Death.
* Butt Monkey: Nikolaus. The protagonist takes a paragraph to inform us of all the nasty things he'd done to Nick throughout their childhood. Arguably this gets to Cosmic Plaything levels when you get to the kids' first Sadistic Choice.
* Children Are Innocent
* Cosmic Plaything
* Creator Breakdown
* Deal with the Devil
* Devil but No God
* Evilly Affable: Satan's initial hospitality is quickly undermined by his disregard for human life, as shown when he murders two figures over their petty dispute, then destroys their village to stop the sound of its mourning.
* For the Evulz: Satan screws around with the protagonists because it amuses him.
* For Want of a Nail
* Harmful to Minors: And how.
* Ho Yay: Though considering the time it takes place on it may be justified.
* Humans Are Bastards:One of the major themes of the book
* Invisibility: Satan can hide his and the boys presence when he feels like it.
* Invisible to Normals: Nobody even senses that there's something off about Satan.
* Karma Houdini: Guess.
* Light Is Not Good
* Lou Cypher: Averted, but the protagonists aren't any better off. Their gullibility may be justified because they're children.
* Mind Screw: This generally straightforward story suddenly takes a baffling turn in the last three pages, leaving the reader to wonder what, if anything, was real in the tale.
* Names to Run Away From Really Fast: Let's see... How about "Satan"?
* Nice Is Not Good
* Nietzsche Wannabe: This work ends on an incredibly nihilistic tone.
* Our Angels Are Different: At least, that's what "Satan" says.
* Sadistic Choice: The protagonists are forced to choose between a life of suffering for their friend or a quick death. And that's just the first one...
* Satan: The angel's name is Satan, but he insists that he's that other Satan's nephew and that it's a common name for angels. Of course, there's no way to confirm this, and Satan himself (the traditional one) is a notorious Unreliable Narrator.
* Take That: The last chapter contains one of the most venomous and scathing criticisms of Christianity ever written. Though bear in mind that it is Satan saying this....
* Tomato in the Mirror: "Oh by the way, didn't you ever realize that the entire universe only exists in your imagination and that you barely even exist yourself? Well, so long."
* The Treachery of Images: "It was a vision -- it had no existence."
* Unfortunate Names: Lampshaded in the claymation:
*
* The book explains Satan as being named after his uncle.
* Villains Never Lie
* Voice of the Legion: Satan in the Animated Adaptation.
* What Could Have Been: The first version of the story, called 'The Chronicles of Young Satan', was set in Missouri in the 1840s, with Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn playing supporting roles. The second version, called 'Schoolhouse Hill' involved Twain himself and his friends and family encountering Young Satan, who had come to Hannibal, Missouri and later been converted to Methodism. A later version, called the 'Print Shop', or 'Number 44: The Mysterious Stranger', was based around Young Satan becoming a printer's devil, and showing the worthlessness and futility of human existence by having him create and then destroy copies of the townsfolk. The version that we know is an amalgam of the three, crafted by Twain's literary executor Albert Bigelow Paine.
* What Do You Mean It's Not for Kids?: The Animated Adaptation.
