Prologue

           The wind blew in my hair; the branches scratched at my face. I could feel the monster gaining

on my tracks. Thorns nearby tore the ends of my dress as I started loosing balance and then….I

tripped.  My face down in the dirt, I quivered with fear as I heard the snarl of the  beast I was fleeing

from behind me. I wanted right there to have an unnatural occurrence and just die on the spot. I

know it sounds completely mad but it’s the honest truth. I would give anything to die any other way

then this. I put my hands together and started to pray. “Our father in Heaven, hallowed be thy name.

Thy kingdom…” I could feel its hot breathe on my neck now. “Thy kingdom come thy will be done.

On Earth as it is in Heaven.” It started to growl as I felt its paws deepen the Earth beside me; “Give

us this Day our Daily bread , and forgive us our Trespasses as we forgive them…” I could now feel

the drool coming from the hungry beast’s mouth as its paws glided along the side of my dress. The

tears were starting to fall from my eyes like a spring rain. “Forgive them that trespasses against us.

And lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil.” I stopped speaking when I heard other

howls from not to far away from the beast and I. I could sense the creature getting tense from

hearing, his now, new competition. I finally was lifting myself up only to see the beast’s eyes even

with my own. Even though I looked at my maker, I continued to pray. “For thine is thy kingdom.” I

slowed my breathe as the beast inched closer and closer. “For ever and ever.” I closed my eyes

and prepare for my life to end. “The power and the glory Forever and ever.” I clenched my eyes tight

as I muttered the last words. As I started to utter the finally syllables I could feel memories of my life

time start to flood my mind. Some happy, some not but most of all, some completely confusing and

terrifying……….. “Amen”
