THE BATTLE BETWEEN GOOD AND EVIL

BATTLE BETWEEN GOOD AND EVIL We awoke inside the cave to a thud. The ground shook, A moment later there was another thud. I got up and looked around. The other tribe members were waking looking around in a startled manner. We all heard the next thud, coming from outside the cave entrance. I did a quick head count, and all those who hit the hay inside the cave last night were accounted for. All but the fake Bill Thomas and the fake Linda, my old lady back on earth and who went through so much with me between September 2016 till we let earth December 2018, were the only two missing. Another thud. Sig ran out first, the rest of us close behind. Since the Black Forest was named for its environment, extremely dark, there was no sunshine visible at the cave entrance. Now sunlight brightened to clearing. We all stepped out and rubbed our eyes. Instead of a high vegetative canopy overhead, we could see the sky. Since it only took a second to cut through a tree with his laser, Bill was cutting down the trees with abandoned. He knew what he was doing, cutting large branches quickly, after they fell to the ground he would quickly cut them into three foot sections. A tree that probably took two hundred years to grow, Bill was cutting them down and cutting them up in moments. Linda stood back, just to the left of the cave entrance, watching. To our surprise, there were a couple other humanoid types there in the clearing, both operating one flame thrower, turning all the branches and laves to fire, then as. These two were about the same size as Bill, but they had hooves. And horns. They looked like the Evil Incarnate monster that as living in the cave when we first got here, Sig eight months ago, myself three months ago. That would be earth time. BOOK OF JOHN II 295 They also wore shorts that looked like they had a plaid pattern. It was hard to tell since they were so dirty, and, as we found out in moments, smelly. There was more thudding noise, this time a distance away, we judged near the Black Forest rim, not far from where the black saucer sat. Finally able to see the trees falling in the heavily forested distance, it was obvious someone was knocking more trees down. All of the tribe huddled, the women taking it harder then the men. We all had grow used to this little area of Black Forest we called Home. The price we paid for this little bit of land, our Home on Land, like the monster killing Dave, and all the work done burying the bones left inside, the remnants of the monsters meals, well, the price was heavy. Jessica was next to Sig, "What are they doing?" "Looks like they are cutting down the Forest." "No," she said, with deep sadness. "Where did these other things come from?" "I don't know." "Hey," Will said, after he moved to the edge of the cave clearing, "There's more saucers in the field." "Holy shit," I said. With the sky visible, two more saucers fell from the sky, stopping just before hitting the ground. "We are in big trouble," Sig exclaimed. More fires started near the Forest rim as more of the aliens held flame throwers. Linda, who had been staring blankly ahead all of a sudden, came to life. She turned to us and pulled out her laser pointer. "All you get in a line and start picking up the wood." We didn't move being too depressed. "Move it," she yelled, raising her pointer, aiming it at Sig's belly. Scared and crying, the women shrunk back, Jessica carrying Adam, Monica holding Eve and Brian, my twins. ORDER OF THE UNIVERSE IV 296 "All you, get in a line, and grab a piece of wood. This area has to be cleared by this afternoon. If you had worked yesterday, you would almost be done. Now get to work." We looked at her for a coupe me moments. Finally, she yelled at the top of her voice, "Get to work." And so it started, Sig and I picked up a chunk of the trunk, and surprisingly, it was a lot lighter then we thought. It was like balsa wood on earth. Had we known it was so light, we would have been using it as building material. We carried the first couple chunks into the cave, walking as far as we could until it got too dark. I didn't realize at first we were being followed by one of the hoofed humanoids. Stopping because it was too dark to continue, we were suddenly pushed and yelled at. "Keep moving," the thing yelled in our ears. Sig pointed out the obvious. "We can't continue with no light." We didn't realize the thing following us was carrying one of the small flame throwers. It stepped up in front of us and blasted a twenty foot stream of flame that caught everything not made of stone on fire. There were a couple of torches attached to the wall which exploded in fire. The second the flame light the room, I turned to look away from the intense flame, and caught a glimpse of Randy and Ronald as they slipped between a couple boulders, I believe the same place Junior and Jill hid as the huge evil incarnate monster chased me through the cave, only to be attacked by the Batties, then falling to it's death. They saw me see them and I saw they had a bow and arrow, along with a spear. I looked to Sig, who was picking up his large chunk of wood, No, he did not see Randy or Ronald. I bent and picked up my hunk of wood as others from the tribe, including a couple of the women, started backing up behind us. So one by one we walked to the cliff cave entrance and from the opening, since the trail here was gone, we tossed our log chunks over the edge. Turning, we walked back through the tunnel back towards the quickly falling Black Forest. Walking behind Sig, with the hoofed thing staying back near the cave cliff opening, we didn't BOOK OF JOHN II 297 hurry, all of us realizing this was the new normal, to be slaves to these evil beings, sent here to ensure our positive spirit could not manifest into the incarnate self of multiple beings needed to expand the influence and light of Godhead.
