Array ( [sid] => 5321 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => Guardian of the Gate [time] => 2002-10-20 08:45:00 [hometext] => This is not some wish of mine, its just a thought I had. It never left me until I wrote it down. Please, I hope I don't offend any religious people out there. I meant no offense. [bodytext] => I keep to myself, not trusting a soul. I wait for a sign. Once given, I will rise and take heed to my lord's command.

I stand guarding the gates of Heaven. I wait for the sign, for the forces of Darkness to storm the walls of Light.
I am the last soul standing between the conflict of God and Satan.

As the first apparation appears on distand clouds, I gather my strength. I pray to the Lord to aid me in my final battle.

The heat of battle rushes over my head. I feel the evil creep up to heavens door. The sun, sky, and clouds underneath my feet turn crimson. Evil tugs at my soul, showing me visions of wealth, power, and glory. I could have it all if I join with the Darkness. I feel like I have been consumed by the blackness and can't see anything. My heart and soul strive to find something to hold onto. I strive to find my anchor in this world.

But then light takes me by the hand. A little sparkle of hope inside fills me with peace. My faith is restored and I once again have hope. The blackness around me shatters and I banish all!

The hand on my shoulder trembles.
I turn.
I look into the face of my savior.
I look into the face of God.

A sword of fire protrudes from his chest. A dark figure drew his sword from its new sheath. An ominous laugh resonated from that dark embodiment.

My lord, my father, my God trembled before me. Taking my hands and bathing them in his blood while speaking to me, he said
"I am your father, I am your God. Do what is asked of you.......take they power."

Well that's a new way to look at the whole Good VS. Evil idea. Interesting...very interesting.
