“You think that I live in a small world? I’ve been around the world a couple of times or more. I’ve seen and heard lots of things, things that would scare the most brave of men or women. Some things would even make the dead turn over in their graves if it were ever spoken of, but some things shall never be spoken again by anyone. There are secrets in the world that will never be revealed to humans, Djinns, or even Angels, secrets that only God and my father know. These secrets will never be disclosed because they are so dangerous to the existence of life. There is more to life than just what he can see with his eyes."
“Tell me something that you can say without getting into too much trouble. Something good, something with heart, something that would stir up some talking around the world. Please tell me something that will shock me.”
David is now face to face with Alfonzo. His lips are inches away from Alfonzo’s lips.
“World peace is possible. Everyone that thinks otherwise is wrong. It has been possible for the last five thousand years, but the humans lie to themselves and think that it is not possible. My father was on his balcony looking over the earth when it occurred to him. World peace is possible, and it has been overlooked too long. The people of the world have been programmed into thinking that it cannot be possible because the few that want to control the world allow the masses to fight with each other. You see my father has become a kinder person because he was the first one to lead a war against God. He was the first military leader to turn pacifist because he watched friends, family, and even his generals and troops die before his eyes. His conscious emerged and realized that God left something out of him on purpose. When God made him something was missing. Something important, and something very important that my father doesn’t know about. When he realized this, my father knew that he had to level the playing field by creating a weapon that would work against God. There is an ancient place in England called Stonehenge. This place is where my father created the Philosopher Stone when he was planning to over throw God. He told me that his reason for doing this was because God got to big for his own head. God told him before everything else was made that they needed to keep a level head when we create everything and not to let this power go to our heads. That was the downfall of everything. The Great War was the bloodiest battle in the history of the world. Angels and Djinns fell. Halflings got hit the hardest because they were number one on God’s hit list. My father’s brother protected my brother and me from the many Angels that came to kill us because God felt that we were abominations. I lost my brother to God, and my parents lost their marriage because of God. My father had to make a choice to lose his other child or curse her for the rest of her life so he could see her. When I got to meet God face to face in heaven after the Great War was over, I spat in his face and then punched him in his jaw. I told him, thank you for breaking up my family and ruining my life. Then I walked away from him. I have never seen him since that day.”
“Are you one of the first or last of your race?”
“My brother and I are the first of the Halflings. I have no clue how many lived after God condemned my race to genocide. All I know is my father almost lost his brother to one of God’s blessed Angels.”
Chapter 61
Across on the other side of the castle in his private bedroom, Lucifer stands on his balcony just like that night he thought about world peace and thinks about what happened in the last couple hours.
“So, God, is this the hybrid soul that you spoke of on the mirror in the Ladies of Time home? If it is, then what does my daughter have to do with this hybrid soul? Why is this soul in my castle right now? And where is the broken soul that is to battle to the end?”
Lucifer looks down at the harpies feeding on some of the damned molesters he has thrown down to them for food.
“You and I know that this is the beginning of the end for everyone and everything. You wanted this all along, and now you have it. I hope that you are truly happy. You created everything, and now it’s going to be destroyed by one soul that has no clue what it truly is.”
A hooded, shadowy figure comes out of the corner of the balcony and stands seven feet away from Lucifer. Lucifer doesn’t look at the figure because he knows who it is and why they’re here.
“I know that I did that to you. I am sorry for your hurt. But don’t tell him that I know. The strange news will only make Alfonzo's life difficult in the long run. I love her too much to ruin her life any more than I have already ruined it. Can you do that little for me?” Lucifer asks.
“Yes, but you owe me now for this, and I will remember.” The figure disappears into a dark void.
Lucifer turns his back to Eden to gaze into his room as he searches for answers to questions to the unknown. He remembers when his family was together and everything was excellent in the world. It was a time of happiness.
God started to change when Lucifer and Elijah were married and started to bear children. Halflings is what these children became. These births would change God’s perspective on the existence of humans, Djinns, and Angels. The intermixing of races challenged God’s vision of a perfect world. God envisioned a world where all races would exist happily together but never the intermixing of any races. The day that God held Alfonzo within his arms and gazed into her big golden eyes, was the day God knew that things were going to change. God was on edge when Elijah gave birth to a boy. Lucifer was a proud father again and his name was Merlin. Lucifer had huge plans for Merlin, and God would have no part in it. After Merlin’s birth, many Halflings were born into loving families. Some of the Halflings were Human/Djinn, or Human/Angel, or Angel/Djinn, but God saw these new races as an abomination to his perfect world. Over half of the world was Halflings. His great race of humans was starting to become the minority. Few human families were pure. These human families would be chosen to continue the humanity without Djinns or Angels to intermix with. God had a plan and started to carry it out when Lucifer was raising his army to put an end to God's tyranny. Lucifer had no idea about God’s plan, but God had a funny feeling about to what Lucifer was planning for him because of Merlin birth. After the Great War, God flooded the earth to cover up the blood of the war, but many clues were left that God didn’t account for.
“If you think that I will not find a way to kill you, then just wait and see. If one hair is harmed on my baby’s head."
Lucifer pauses, "Wait and see a father come right into Heaven and kill you because you decide to predict the beginning of the end.”
Lucifer lies down, closes his eyes, and drifts off to sleep.
Chapter 62
Devan looks out the window straight at the stars thinking about his men. He closes his eyes and searches for his special men.
The Leader stops and turns towards the direction that Devan is standing.
‘Yes my master. What can I do for you?’
“I need you and your men to travel west to hunt down a person. His name is David Turner. Bring me his head and heart so I may keep them as a trophy. If you and your men succeed at this, I will make you generals.”
Knowing that if they can do what he commands, he will proceed on with his plan and revving up the timetable.
Chapter 63
“I am sorry, but I cannot stop,” Alfonzo continues to cry for all that died that day of the Great War.
“Its okay. You cry until you cannot cry anymore, and if need be, I’ll cry for you,” David says while holding Alfonzo in his arms.
David snaps his fingers and the fireplace ignites.
'I will protect you with everything I got. If I need to become stronger, then I will.'
Alfonzo falls asleep in David’s arms as he watches over her. They don’t move all night long, keeping each other warm and close.
As morning appears, David awakes first. He walks over to his window to look upon the house that he did not first realize whose home it was. David steps back realizing that the house is his family's home from when he was a little boy. The home looks as if it had b
een frozen in time. A single tear runs down his face.
Alfonzo uses a finger to wipe David’s tear away.
“I didn’t hear you get up.”
“I didn’t want to scare you.”
“I’ve been waiting to see this house again.”
“The windows are designed to cater to your hearts desire,” Alfonzo puts her hand on David’s chest.
“My heart yearns for my family. My heart wishes to see my parents once more.”
“Maybe they’re up in Heaven. If you want, I can take you there.”
Alfonzo turns David around to look into his eyes.
David is silent for a couple of minutes then asks.
“Does it ever rain in Heaven?”
“Yes, but only when God cries.”
“God cries?!”
“Yes, he does. He cries over someone very close. I think it’s his brother. Only a few people know who his brother is. My parents know who he is, but my mother will not say. My father has promised God to never say his name."
“Will I get to meet God?” David asks.
“I have meet him only once. He is a private man that likes to sit in the shadows and watch. If you do see him, then you might be someone important too.”
Alfonzo transforms into a phoenix and hovers in front of David, waiting for him to transform.
“I hope I may meet God so I can ask him about his brother,” David says as he transforms and hovers next to Alfonzo.
“I hope you do.”
Alfonzo and David fly off, heading towards Heaven.
