Hope's Country Angel

Part 5

Joseph P.O.V.

It was a day like any other day. Until we got a phone call from our sheep in Hope Country Sherrif station. Someone come to Falls End. Someone who knew these people. Someone they liked, respected maybe. I had already informed my brothers and sister that someone is coming to US. From what my sheep told me it was a young woman. From the description, I knew that she was someone that could make my flock given up on our road. A devil in the body of a woman. Maybe just maybe her soul is worth saving. Only if she will walk the path of God and tell us her sins. One more believer, one more sheep, one more saved soul. 

I was still writing my today seminar, but I knew God will help me with it. He will give me the words I will say to my people. I put my face in my hands. Even with everything that I had done I still feel like something is missing. Like there still is a part of me that is long gone. A part that I have to find before the collapse. I sigh loudly and took my aviators off. Still holding them between my fingers I put light pressure on my nose to stop the headache that I felt was coming. My radion was faintly playing in the background. I know that Jon and Jacob will come soon. Faith was already here and making family dinner before the seminar. 

It took an hour for my brothers to come. They already knew that there will be someone who will try and take me from them. Of course, Jacob wanted to stop them before they even come. But I know that this meeting is in God's plan and we need it to happen. It took a long talk and he calmed down. My heralds, my family must trust God the same as I trust. They don't stand a chance with the one chosen by our Lord himself.

The seminar started as usual. My sheeps were singing and listening to me. To Lord's words that I said to them. I felt that the moment was coming. My brothers too. I have faith and I trust my Lord. Nothing will happen. Just as I was speaking the door to church opened. There is one that does not believe.

"Something is coming. You can fill it, can't you? That we are creeping toward the edge..." They started to come closer to me "and there will be a reckoning." My people started to acknowledge the intruders. "That's why we started the Project. Because we know what's happens next. They will come. They will try to take from us. take our guns. Take our freedom..." Those men were getting closer to me. A local Sherrif, some young Deputy, and a Federal Marschal. I wonder where is that newcome woman."Take our faith. We will not let them. We will not let their greed, or their immorality, or their depravity hurt us anymore! There will be no more suffering."Just as the Marschal was angry at me and tried to do something I heard it. The most beautiful voice I had ever heard. 

Just then I saw her. With her (h/c) hair braided and laying on her left shoulder. Gorges (e/c) big eyes that looked too innocent to be real. Her cute nose and those plump pink lips that you just want to kiss. She had a blue bottom-up shirt, some dark jeans, and black flats. Even as she was at the back and started to come closer with each sung word I could not hear it. Then our eyes met and I saw her in a snow-white wedding dress. As she moved to me, to her love. Then I saw a green field with many flowers. Faith was making a flower crown, Jacob was fishing and trying to teach John. Then before me was her in the most beautiful dress and with a basket in her hands. And she just smiled sweetly at me. The moment I blinked, I was back at the church and she still was singing. 

"Well there was a time when you let me know

What's really going on below

But now you never show that to me, do ya?

And remember when I moved in you

The holy dove was moving too

And every breath we drew was hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah,

Hallelujah, hallelujah

Well maybe there's a god above

But all I ever learned from love

Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you.

And it's not a cry that you hear at night

It's not somebody who's seen the light

It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah

Oo hallelujah, oo hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah"

As she stopped everything around stopped too. It was so quiet that you could only hear soft breaths. Mine was taken away for some time. How this woman can be with them. That was a thing I could not understand. She was mine and jet, not mine right now. My heart wanted to hold her, shield her, and take care of her for the rest of my life. My beautiful angel.
