"... I have been thinking of living in a new and perfect earth free from Him, and rule as it's conqueror, And to become one with you." The wind carried flickers of flames as they danced with his silver flowing hair bangs.
"Aren't I the source of the imperfection that you hate so much?" His listener inquired, not swayed by his last statement.
"If I ponder on a thing with enough effort, revelations will come. Morning and Night, Men and Women, Light and Darkness. When these extreme sensitivities become one, they will become the existence that our father has deeply loved."
He looked into Lucifer's Crystal blue eyes, he wasn't speaking empty words, and his eyes emitted the belief he had in his ideals. "Am I just some pawn in the making of this Magnum Opus?"
"No! If you wish, I could accept you in my true form" Lucifer like a butterfly emerging from its chrysalis changed into his glorious form, his magnificent wings gracefully stroked the face of the man in red.
This negotiation could alter the fate of the universe no matter the answer... Humanity didn't have a tomorrow.

Beginnings are Important. Most of claim to know the whole story, I can tell you that you don't. You only know half of the story, but I know the full story. I was present at the time it unfolded. This is the record of the things I saw, I am merely an observer of the times, and I am no one of importance.

It was a busy Monday in Israel, a perfect day for business, chipping the perfect furniture; pray the rich moguls come to buy some. Those where Joseph's trail of thought till he heard his name yelled annoyingly. He recognized the voice what is with this woman? 'We aren't even married yet'. He thought aloud.

"I just saw a great revelation!" She proclaimed.

Joseph set her down on a stool, he guessed she must have seen some miracles happen or had a bizarre idea, it was Mary. Miracles weren't so odd in those times. "Ok, tell me what GREAT thing happened"

"I saw an Angel", she looked towards the sky from the workshop as if reliving the moment. She was chopping wood in the hill when she felt all sense of time stop, followed by the feeling of an enormous presence behind her. It was overwhelming, an aura of blinding light, she as a human couldn't stand it she felt heavy and sheer fear. she swallowed hard.

"Hello Mary, You are put in high esteem than all other earthly women. The Lord sends his greeting." The angel seemed hyperactive.

Thoughts ran through Mary's head 'Huh? Who's he? What's this?' She was close to bursting out in tears.
The angel had big, broad wings, he was blond with a head band that had gold plated little wings, and his golden breastplate armor and white inner wear were obvious. He had crystal blue eyes and was beardless, with his feminine face and voice one could deem him a woman, and he seemed stylish with his white trousers and bronze metal footwear. "Don't be afraid" he tried to touch her arm which she immediately retracted. "wait I forgot you can't speak English, give me a second. Do you understand all what I have just said Mary?" he had switched to the Hebrew tongue.

He felt the need to clarify. He continued... "You will become pregnant and give birth to a son and you will call his name Jesus."
After detailing his message Mary slowly raised up her hand, she wanted to ask a question. "How would it happen, I am not married and I... have not been seen" She muttered.
"The Holy Ghost will come on you and will overshadow you-"

"Pause! Pause!! Pause!!!" Joseph halted her. "So you mean you're going to conceive a spirit's child?" He doubted her. 'I hope she hasn't...'
"I'm not done yet Joseph. Lastly he said this..."
The things of the spirit are not something for the human logic to comprehend.
Joseph gave Mary a blank stare. 'This woman... is Lying'. Yet he could tell the excitement she felt was genuine, she made it sound believable. He went to bed that night burdened with a lot of questions, none that he could ask her. After listening to all what he said he had dismissed her with the classic you had a long day, go home and rest. He thought of how he could break the news to both their parents that he was cancelling the engagement and end things quietly because he didn't sign up for this development. He pondered long enough that he lost track of time.
