Hope for Humanity: The Death of Eden

The War Begins Pt. III

"If I walked all the way around the whole garden I will cry real Jesus tears." I crouched and walked for what feels like a couple hours. How big was this garden?

'Great.' I thought, I have a ringing in my ears, head? I don't know. I have to focus.

'Where the fuck is this gate.' I stopped a though a minute. Would I have to fly to get in? If there is a gate and someone sees me flying over the wall it might get me some unwanted attention.

'Idea' I set fire to my index finger and traced a brick.

'Might as well add something else.' I added a crossed put O.

If I come back here I can feel the burnt brick and I'll know if there is a gate or just a wall.

My back hit a bar. I turned around, oh shit more shiny. I stood up straight.

Eden.

I morph, blue eyes, blonde hair, white feathery wings.

I open the gates. I thought it'd be harder then that.

For the first time I take a look at the garden. It's full of plants, I don't know what I was expecting but it wasn't this. Maybe I expected more green, amazon rain forest. This, this is weird.

I need to find my way to a middle point. How do I conquer
something with no one here. Do I conquer the plants.

Maybe I could burn this place down. I smile, genius.

I lite a match and looked around, I couldn't throw the match. I set my hand a flame, but I couldn't touch anything.

I put out the flame. This is to easy.

I started walking, I want to explore this place.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I sat there on the wall, who was that?

"Is there anyone out there?" Leo put his hands on the wall.

"No." I huff, I put my feet on the garden floor and start walking.

"There are many people in Heaven, it's hard to place voice to face with people coming in and out every few minutes." Leo's feet hit the floor.

I started walking back to my willow, I'd gone pretty far, my willow was close to the middle of the garden and I was at the wall.

His voice keep singing in my mind. 'There is nothing that could stop this mighty moving force.'

He knew the song. A song humans sang in church, he's been to their world. He's been free. Leo's steps could be heard behind me.

He changed the lyrics.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Tree. Tree. Tree. Flower. Bush. Thorn.

"Stupid garden!" I looked up, almost smashing into a tree.

"Huh," I looked at it. "Tree. Never would have guessed." I took some steps back and looked around. "Lost."

I walked up a little hill, well if I climb up a tree I could get a better look. I found a lonely tree and climbed it.

I poked my head through the leaves, 'nice view'.

"No Leo, I don't get it, I just, never mind."
