"Follow me"
They're was two stairways one that lead up to the churches praying hall and the bottom leans to a large door.
Marc followed the priest down stairs. The priest placed his hands on the large door and pushed. Next thing he saw a large hall with a long table in the middle of it. There where some people eating at the table.
Some of the people greeted Marc as he followed the priest. They went to a door to the left of the table then walked into the room. The room was fairly large with countless shelves stacked with books.
There was a woman at the entrance of the library sitting at a desk. The priest walked up to the woman and asked her something.
Marc looked around at the large library.
Marc wondered through his head
'I'm still confused why this place is so big'
While Marc was wondering in his mind he heard his name and government record being said out loud. He saw the Liberian looking at a computer.
"Marc Wake; age: 25, sex: Male, height: 6'2, weight: 200 pounds, Age:1998-2023"
The Liberian gives the document of his identification and a book to the priest.
"Follow" the priest said
They went forward, went left, and up the staircase. The second floor had tables placed near railings and furniture in a dimly lit corner of the area.
Marc looking at the second floor, observing the lights that were in the ceiling, the bookshelves with dim lighting, lamps on the tables that helped one read.
The priest went over to a table that was against the railing. He placed down the books in front of Marc. The priest went to get some paper and pen. Marc picked up a book, he noticed he's seen these sentences before.
"Here" he gave him the paper and pin.
"Read about 5 or so chapters and summarize what you can, don't worry about what you can't"
"Why?"
"it's procedure. We are to evaluate what you know, then you'll be taking the test again" the priest said
"Ok" he said slightly frustrated
"I'll be back in 2 hours" the priest said then he walks down the stairs then goes to the door and walks out of the library.
'He we go again' Marc thought
He looked at the books cover it read: laws of direction,mind, and meaning
'After taking that damn potion and grabbing all the pieces for the pink light, can I ever get a break'
He rubbed his eyes furiously and irritated.
'I did chose this route, no going back now.'
'I wonder if different churches have different procedures'
'Probably'
He picked up the book an started reading.
….
Raina was working at a restaurant, she was a waiter taking a order.
She was a black vest and tie over a white shirt; she was also where black plants and loafers.
"Welcome to Koes Grill, how may I help you today"
She was serving a couple in a booth.
The restaurant was somewhat large; there was four rows of booths, two on one side and two on the other. At the end of the restaurant was the kitchen and the door that goes to it; it was far across the from the wooden entrance of the restaurant.
"We would like a sweet blood and Soren's honey" the man said
"Would you like to order now or later?"
"Later"
She wrote down the order and went to the kitchen and hung up the order.
Soren's honey and Sweet Blood is a drink made by a man named Soren. He was a man who contributed to the world in many ways. He helped in some technological developments, human rights, and international trade but he mainly focused in alcohol.
She went to another table and toke their order and repeated the cycle.
….
Minutes later; Raina came back with the drinks.
"What toke so long" the woman said frustrated
"What would you like" Raina said in a tired tone and wanting to say something back.
The guy started to order something to break the thin tension. "We would like a Frasian's supper and a Marvin's plate"
"Sides?"
"Mac and cheese and barbecue beans"
"That'll be all"
…
Quite a bit of time passed and the couple is still waiting for their meal.
Raina comes out with Marvin's plate; the dish was a Farsland classic, it was mainly a barbecue style dish. A coal miner came everyday to koes grill during the Steel and Wool War. That was 300 years ago.
Year now: 2023
Farsians dinner was a dish made by foreigners who tried blending into society. The dish mainly consisted of chopped brisket, grilled fish, duck, red onions, celery, and celery. This meal was introduced 100 prior to the current day, this was when immigration rates were high.
"took long enough" the woman said with irritation
Raina sighed and said "enjoy your meal"
The more people she served the more time flew by. Raina served many people, leaving her extremely exhausted. The amount of people slowed a bit, she looked authors the clock and realized it was almost her break time.
She ask one of the other waiters to cover for her. She headed out and.
…
She chose to go to a burger joint. Not to far away from where she worked
She sat down in a booth at a corner. She took her phone at and scrolled through social media.
A waiter came up to her and asked for her order.
"Water and a 13"
The waiter was a happy woman in her early 50s
"Will that be all"
"Yes"
The waiter went off, she went back to scroll on her phone.
We she was scrolling through her phone she saw a message pop up from her phone, it was from Drake.
"Are you picking me up today mom?"
"Yes honey" Raina said with exhaustion mainly on her mind but a slight hint happiness
"Ok" Drake texted back happily
"How long do I have to stay at grandmas again"
"3:00"
….
5th hour- 12:40
Rami was sitting down at her desk at Farsianese class. She tuned out a lot of the things the teacher said.
'When will this be over' she thought in her head endless amount of times.
She tapped her pencil repeatedly, trying to find something to do.
….
Mikal continued walking through the black void trying to find something, a way out.
Mikal suddenly saw a light the light in the darkness!
He stopped feeling somewhat accomplished after find something, that sense to be a way out.
Then suddenly he felt a falling sensation!
He panicked and started to trip over, falling on his knees, and the sensation resumed.
He wasn't falling, the light hadn't changed position, in fact he's been in the same place.
He heard a explosive and hear shattering sound that seemed like it came from a neighboring planet then a voice sounded through the darkness
"I'm trying to save you"
Mikal heard these untrustful words and thought the first thing in his head: run!!
A couple minutes passed and he started to see the light, it was a pair of golden wings pouring out golden liquid spreading across the black voids "ground".
Mikal saw the wing and pouring liquid, it was clear to him, he wasn't to far away from it.
Then the voice rang out again but more angelic tone
"I'm trying to save you"
