Raven's Task Pg2

a heavy smog circles around the dead hiding the ground below the demons become louder and I can hear the ground start to quake then thousands of ugly vile things climb to the surface and all thousand of their little ugly eyes are on me I suddenly feel completely overwhelmed a thousand against one how can this be why would our Father do this to me I begin to shoot and a single bullet fly’s not hitting even one of those nasty creatures I can now feel the fear and am at my wits end then the great spirit speaks once more you have forgotten your Father you have lost your faith how can you rid these evil creatures alone I drop to my knees and weep oh Father forgive me I have sinned I let the demons take control letting me forget the most important thing of all prayer please help me I can’t do this without you I trust that you will see me through amen then as I arose the figures I had foolishly mistaken for bats had actually been the lords angels waiting for me to pray all at once they swooped down beside me their beauty glorifying the entire land I began to shoot and not just one bullet flew but twenty everyone of them hit their target as the angels and I worked together the battle was won before it could even begin when the land again was at peace the angels took my hand the black of my dress became white and wings slowly started to sprout upon my shoulders I then knew it was time for me to go home Contest: Living Among the Dead pg 2of 2 By: Virginia Frayer
