It was raining the next day and plans seem to changed quickly. The young man was on the phone pacing back and forward as the news played in the background. The news was talking about the growth in deaths by suicide and why they're been so many unexplained cases. "You make it seem like we're walking or taking the bus, " the man said as he slammed on his bed, " we're literally driving there." He explained. "Looked it's raining mad hard Ethan and ion want my shoes to get wet just not toda-" she said as Ethan hung up on her he groan as he placed his hands on his face. Ethan was 19 and lived in apartments in Atlanta. He had medium thick foresee hair and a stubble. He was frustrated because he felt his girlfriend was making every excuse he then looked up as he noticed the information the news was giving. It was showing the victims of different suicide and showed a girl he use to go to school with. He then continued to watch the news. On the other side of town was darkened Hebrews, daughter of Zion's, watching the news as well. The news showing the victims who been deceased. The news also stated this has been the most suicide deaths in the past two weeks. One of the Daughters looked down as she thought about her friend who committed suicide. "Thekla are you okay sis?" Her Hebrew sister asked she looked up and gave a light smile. "Oh Um yeah, Ani, I'm just worried for our people. This whole time we been watching the news talked about these cases it's been a Hebrew back to back I pray for my brothers and sisters." She said. Thekla stomach begin to growl as they both giggled. "Wanna eat at that Jamaican spot?" Ani suggested. Thekla agreed as they got in her friends car. They drove off as they continued to talk about the news. "I just think it's crazy," Thekla started, "That all these suicide cases or added up so quickly." Ani nods her head "Yeah I pray my little brother ok he was just talking about how he was tired of kids teasing him, you know how those kids are in middle school." Ani said. Thekla nodded as they parked at the restaurant. They went to the counter as they started to order their food. Thekla ordered oxtails and rice with veggies while Ani ordered jerk chicken, mash potatoes and corn. Thekla smelled the food as her stomach growled even more. Soon a young man walks to the counter to order as well, as he waited he noticed Thekla's Beauty. She had on a head wrapped and a long Carmel and brown skirt with blue fringes around her yellow shirt. She packed no makeup like the normal girls He used to. And he never came across such a modest attire among a sister. He looked at her head wrapped and fringes once more and it came over him that she was a sister Israelite who know self and truth. He remembering hearing that Israelite women wear head wraps when joined in marriage. The cashier passed him his food as he proceeded to approach her. He stopped as he gazed at her. Thekla and Ani giggled. "Um hi may I help you?" Thekla asked."Oh!", he uttered and cleared his voice, "I noticed your head wrap and wanted to know where you married?" He asked. Thekla and her friend chuckled a little more."I see you know a little something, however no I'm not married." She replied. "Cool, I'm Ethan." Ethan greeted himself as he stretched his hand out to shake hers. "Nice to meet you, I'm Thekla and this is my friend Ani" Thekla said as Ani waved. "So is it possible I could have your number?" He asked. Thekla looked at Ani and then back at him. " Sure but just to make sure your not worldly," worldly?, Ethan than understand that one to well. ",..When is the sabbath?""Oh, of course it's Saturday" he replied with a smile. She gave a light smile back but she still have her decrement on guard. "So about that number" he said in a joking manner; nervously."Yeah, about that, you can have my PageMe name @Thekla.RealJEW." She said as he put it in his phone. "Well guess I'll see you later then." He said."If Almighty's willing, we'll see." She said as Ethan left with a smile." Meanwhile, Thekla gets a call from her phone she read the caller ID as she rolled her eyes."Hello?" She answered. She listen to the caller as she looked outside and saw a black car. "Right now??" She replied. She rolled her eyes again. "Fine" she said as she hung the phone up. She told Ani that she had to handle something and that they'll meet up later on. She then walks out and towards the black vehicle. It was Jue. Thekla, not looking assumed, grunts at Jue. "Ah cmon spare me." Jue signed. She glared and grunted her teeth. "Oh you want me to, 'spare' you? Your always putting me on some big demon hunting mission, when you told me we would do missionary work, not tryna find the lair to Satan and behead the best off rip!" She shouted. "Yeah I thought that was the plan?" Jue smirked. She rolled her eyes and rubbed the center of her forehead. "Look Jue, Yes that's the end goal but lately we been handling some pretty beyond us cases not saying no demon is beyond me, but we have to get stronger at least me." Thekla admitted. Jue tossed his head softly back and forward (that's when he know she's right). "Ekla, We have been facing some pretty tough foes. Yet the Father guides us swiftly through our enemy's fingers. The spiritual realm has been off lately, more than usual," He told her as he pat her back , " Plus this case is small, I think." He said as he made a right turn. "Oh joy." Thekla said. 'That's what you always say before the small becomes bigger than expected' Thekla thought as she looked out the window. The Sun was setting and the wind gave a breeze. A young light skinned male sat in fetal position in the corner of his gloomy room. He rocked back and forward with his head buried into his legs. He whimpered and kept mumbling under each heavy breath, "it's not real, it's not real, it's not real..etc." 'Do it...' whispered a eerie voice. He jerked his head as he rapidly looked around. 'Complete the process, James' The voice said. James shook more and grabs his hair and repeats more clearer "it's not real, it's not real, it's not real" as he continues chanting and rocking he felt a dark presence hover over he looked up as a black figure stood amongst him. The figure had no face and no features. The figure had a structure of a man, no; The body structure looked disfigured as if this black figure was once a man. James stared into its black void for a face as his heart pounded and his breathing grew rapidly. The figure staring down James into his eyes. The figure has eyes? No, however the heavy wait of the dark presence frozen James staring back into a deep less black void. The black figure stretched its black shadow arms out and in both hand like palms was a knife in one hand and pills in the other. James looked back and forward and back at the figure as it's voice left from inside of James head and into the air and in its clear voice it command him: "Finish your convent, be my victim."
