«Appear weak when you are strong, and strong when you are weak».
I thought while she was reading a book.
-What are you reading now?- I asked
-Oh, It's the odyssey, a wonderful book to spend the time, are you better?-.
-I'm okay, I need to think the way to scape, I want to recover my family, I miss them-.
The night was starting and the first shadows started to appear, she looked the panorama and she was looking the sky (it was full of stars). But I felt safe because Evelyn was with me, but a part of me told me that I escaped from that horrifying and baleful place. It was hostile all this time and Evelyn had to understand that I wanted to escape.
Oh home, come back and return the old times, you are so beautiful old home the confusion never stoped, I missed the opportunities of the life and this was the payments of all my sins.
-I'm part of the cure?, or Am I part of the disease?- I answered
-The demons say that the humans are stupid, corrupted and they don't know how to manage their resources like the oil and gas, they only know to spend and spend, making serious damage in the atmosphere, and his challenge is get a soul and offer that soul to the devil. I think you're like the «holy grail»-. She answered
Life you've put me down upon my knees, I beg I beg And plead you give my old life... I wanna back home.
But Suddenly I appeared alone... she disappeared and all the forest, I was in a judgement with the devil in front of me, laughing and smiling, I think he was the judge...
-Aiden, you are here because someone offered your soul to me and this is your moment to defend your soul, start the sesion-.
I heard a sound of a drum, the choirs were singing like if they were going to crucifix me and burn my body.
-I don't know why am I here. And I just wanna return home, home, where I wanted to go. Maybe you don't a family, friends, future but I want all coming back NOW!-.
-Oh I'm so sorry, but I won't give you an easy game, you need to win to get your freedom-.
It was strange, in a first look I thought it was a joke but I couldn't believe that the devil used the judgment to take my soul, if he wanted he just take it and it was done... no way, no power, no mercy, revenge, hatred, confusion, all was a ideas raining. Next I heard some witnesses saying lies of me, trying to convince the judge to take my soul, and I remember the phrase of Evelyn Again:
«Appear weak when you are strong, and strong when you are weak».
I remember that because I used to read the «art of war» and this could apply here. I had to looked like confused and nervous to win time (the enough time to think in a escape). So I started to move my leg and other things, it worked, because they could see my «nervous status». And when the judge would say the verdict I request the word.
-I know we are here for a reason, but, why are we fighting for my soul, it's my soul and I can do anything with it, so I think it's a waste of time try to take my soul, I don't have crimes-.
After I said that. The room turned in the silence, someone turned off the lights and I said with a big smile:
«It's my time to play, I'm controlling everything, good life».
