After the recruitment of Maciej Lucian and Cindy Moon , Matteo Lorien Shepard was in his room and reading the Holy Bible. For him - a true Catholic with honor , the Bible was not just a holy book of the Catholic Church there. It was a catalyst for him - something that propelled him through his life. Had it not been for God , Matteo would have lost his path long ago , he would have been a nobody. Glory to God and Glory to the Holy Trinity!

Matt finished reading the page and moved on to the next. His favorite quotes from scripture were.

"May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit."

"I sought the Lord, and he answered me and delivered me from all my fears. Those who look to him are radiant, and their faces shall never be ashamed. Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good. Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him."

For Matteo, God existed and will always exist. In his collection he had an ordinary Bible as well as the famous Gutenberg Bible, the first printed book in history. So what if it's just a few pages , the important thing is that it's sacred writing. Matt put the Bible down on a small glass table. His stomach began to burp. He walked over to the refrigerator and took a burrito out of it. He closed the refrigerator and put the Mexican food in the microwave.

After one minute , Matteo took the food out of the microwave and went to the glass table. He gave the Bible to the shelf. He returned to the table and began to eat his meal . He turned on the movie 'Training Day' on his TV.

"Glory to the GOD. Amen!" Matt said to himself lifting the burrito upwards , then began to eat while simultaneously watching the flim.

After finishing his meal, Matteo's communicator began to ring. The Earthman used the Force and pulled it. After a moment, he answered the call.

"Who is this?" He said to the communicator.

"Arla Jareni. Could you perhaps come to us? I would like , you to see something. More to experience. It's very . . .. . . It clears the mind. " She explained.

"Sure. I'll be there soon," Matteo replied.

"I'm glad , you will join us" Jareni hung up. Matteo got up from the couch and walked over to the TV and turned it off.

"My ***** " He said leaving his room.

A few minutes later, Matteo was in Arla Jareni and Damian Reese's room. Together they meditated delving into the stillness and silence in the Force. Their minds slowly merged with the Force.

"Now Matteo Shepard. Go back in time and remember the worst day of your life. This applies to you too Damian - here's the lesson for today," Umbarian explained.

"And you master what will you do?" Damian asked while still keeping his eyes closed.

"I will be watching you from the side. Rest assured , you won't die - fortunately, that's not how it works." Arla gave them a reassuring look. Matteo began to deepen into the Force. Slowly, a new world began to form.

After a long chase and liberating planets from the hands of the sinister organization.
