Malachi loved women. All women. And he was a master at charming women into coming back to his place. Every weekend, Malachi would go out to the club, find a woman that he wants, and charm her pants off. Literally. After Malachi gets the goods, he tells the women that he will definitely call them back, but never does. Malachi prides himself on being the master of the one night stand. One night, he meets a woman in the club named Alexis. Malachi puts on his usual charm, gets Alexis back to his place, and they make love. Malachi gives his usual "promise" of a call. What Malachi didn't know is that Alexis was a demon. A very strong demon. And because Malachi didn't call Alexis back, she shows up out of nowhere every single night at 2:00 a.m., the exact time they made love...... And beats Malachi senseless. Malachi makes so many trips to the hospital, it's a miracle he isn't dead yet. If he doesn't find a way to stop Alexis, she's gonna beat him to death before long. Apologies and begging don't appease Alexis. His only hope is to find a priest named Vito. And have Vito at his house at exactly 2:00 a.m. to perform an exorcism. But there's a chance that after a month of brutal beatings, it might be too late for Malachi. Alexis has plans to send Malachi to hell. With her fists.

- 1The Master of the GameMalachi, a man who thrives on conquest, surveys the club, his eyes scanning for his next target. He spots Alexis, a woman who emanates an intriguing aura. With practiced ease, he approaches, deploying his arsenal of charm and wit. Alexis, initially reserved, finds herself captivated by his confidence and seductive words. He steers the conversation, weaving a spell that leads her away from the pulsating music and into the quiet intimacy of his apartment. The night unfolds as he's planned, a successful conquest under his belt. As dawn approaches, he delivers his practiced parting words, a hollow promise to call, a lie he’s perfected. He feels the familiar thrill of another victory, oblivious to the true nature of the woman he just left behind.
- 2The 2 AM VisitorMalachi groggily wakes to a throbbing headache and a room in disarray. Pained groans escape him as he tries to sit up, his body a symphony of aches and bruises. He can barely recall the events of the previous night, only a hazy memory of Alexis and then… nothing. As the sun struggles to rise, a chilling realization dawns: this isn't a hangover. His body feels as though it's been through a brutal fight. He checks his reflection, wincing at the sight of a swollen eye and a split lip. Then, the clock strikes 2:00 AM. A cold dread washes over him as he hears a faint whisper, growing into a guttural growl. Alexis, her eyes burning with an unholy light, stands before him, a terrifying, demonic presence. She speaks, her voice a chilling echo of his own broken promise, and then the assault begins anew.
- 3A Cycle of PainMalachi’s life has become an agonizing loop. Each day is a desperate attempt to heal, only to brace for the inevitable nightly onslaught. The hospital visits are becoming routine, the doctors baffled by the severity and consistency of his injuries. He’s lost count of the broken bones, the stitches, the concussions. The fear is a constant companion, a gnawing dread that intensifies as the clock ticks towards 2:00 AM. He tries to barricade his doors, to stay awake, but Alexis always finds a way in, her power seemingly limitless. He pleads, he begs, he apologizes, but his words fall on deaf ears. Alexis’s retribution is relentless, each beating more vicious than the last, leaving Malachi physically broken and spiritually shattered, his hope dwindling with every sunrise.
- 4Whispers of SalvationIn the sterile quiet of his hospital room, Malachi overhears a hushed conversation between nurses. They speak of Father Vito, a reclusive priest known for his unusual abilities—specifically, his talent for banishing dark entities. A spark ignites within Malachi’s despairing heart. Could this be his salvation? The thought of an exorcism, once absurd, now feels like his only lifeline. He clings to the name, Father Vito, repeating it like a mantra. He knows he must find this priest, convince him to intervene. The alternative is unthinkable: a slow, brutal death at the hands of a demon fueled by his own deceit. He resolves to do whatever it takes to locate Father Vito, his dwindling strength fueled by a desperate, nascent hope.
- 5A Race Against MidnightMalachi, still bruised and weak, embarks on a frantic search for Father Vito. His days are consumed by this singular mission, pushing his battered body to its limits. He questions everyone he can, following fragmented rumors and whispered leads. The pressure mounts with each passing hour; 2:00 AM looms closer. He finally tracks down Father Vito, a man whose weathered face tells tales of profound spiritual battles. Malachi must now convince the priest, a man of faith, to confront a genuine demon. He lays bare his terrifying ordeal, his voice trembling with fear and desperation, pleading for help. The priest listens, his expression unreadable, before finally agreeing, but the ticking clock and Malachi's weakened state cast a long shadow of doubt.
- 6Fists of Fury, Prayers of HopeThe air in Malachi’s apartment is thick with a palpable tension as 2:00 AM approaches. Father Vito stands ready, his rosary clutched tightly, his voice beginning the ancient rites of exorcism. Malachi watches, a mixture of terror and fragile hope warring within him. As the first incantations fill the room, Alexis materializes, her demonic form radiating raw power and fury. The apartment shakes, objects fly, and the very air crackles with unholy energy. Alexis unleashes her rage, a whirlwind of supernatural violence aimed squarely at Malachi, while Father Vito stands as a bulwark, his prayers a shield against her onslaught. The fate of Malachi's soul, and his very life, hangs precariously in the balance as divine intervention clashes with demonic vengeance.
- 7The Wrong OneAfter the ritual that Father Vito performed, Malachi gets to enjoy months of peace. He's all healed up, and his life is back to normal. Then one night, at exactly 2AM, Alexis returns. Alexis beats Malachi completely to death, in a visceral and brutal fashion. As Alexis beats Malachi to death, she says, "You may break your promises, but I don't."
