Chapter 18: Maggi Wong Must Die
<><><>
THE CONCERT SPEAKERS @THEAUDITORIUM Blared. The shaven-SkinHeads… Daughters of Klothod-676, the heavy punk-rock Band, WERE playing their rendition of HolySprit Gospel songs… ‘performed’ grittier-&-grungier – to suit-&-feed the-Evolving tastebuds of-The ModernDay Audience…
(… the-Band used TO-BE ‘members’ of the-Notorious Lesbians-Laydette AllFemale CRIMINAL gang – but-SOON, the SpritualGuru ‘baptized’ them TO-BE BornAgain Christians) …
… in SERVITUDE, The-Daughters of Klothod-676 WAS the JMS MotherChurch House-band…
TONIGHT, they WERE Playing for A-Crowd of-1000+ youths, WHO WERE Rocking wild, IN THEIR Sunday Youth-Fellowship MEET @JMS MotherChurch…
-O-
Almost HalfWay BACK-From the Raving and-Crazed audience WERE 3 Chinese-girls of-SHS. Cassandra-&-Cleopatra WERE rapt ~ clapping-&-singing Along TO-The Lyrics on-The-LED TV behind the-Band…
Beside-THEM WAS the-Meek Visually-Impaired Maggi… WHO-Tried her ‘best’ TO-HAVE a-good time – BUT she ‘had’ Desinence problems, Cos’ the-Blind DON’T Process LoudSounds like an-Abel-bodied person ‘does.’ Due-TO Equlibriun Intolerance, Maggi Walked ‘away’ WITHOUT Telling them (… cos’ she Wanted her-MusicClass mates TO ‘Have’ their fun) …
… armed with her-Walking-cane, Maggi gaited InBetween the Standing crowd as they sang-Along in-The-dark. The BlindGirl jolted ‘when’ the-CHORUS Came ~ where the BackRow YOUTHs Started jumping-&-dancing… almost knocking-Off her-AI Darkglasses from her face. She managed the Obstacle-test, TO GET TO the ExitDoor…
When she Closed the-Door from OUTSIDE – she WAS Relieved that IT-WAS 9/10th-Of NoiseReduction of the-Youth RaveParty concert INSIDE. The-Pleased BlindMaggi ‘got’ her Head together ~ as she-THEN wandering-ALONE in the Empty foyer, with ‘not’ a single person InSight (… ‘not’ even the ushers-Nor-security-Guards ~ EveryOne ‘was’ INSIDE @theConcert) …
The-Girl didn’t HAD a-Bad evening per-Say ~ she MET with some NEW Friends of a-Trio of Korean-women* (… expats in the-IT Industry in-Perth – especially, the woman Named Anna Kim Sa-wai Who ‘was’ friendly, WHERE she ‘particularly’ mentioned THAT JMS ‘was’ discriminating to-Asians… and ADVICED Maggi NOT-TO ‘come’ Next-Sunday) …
*[… unbeknownst to the 13-year-Old Maggi WAS the Korean-Trio ‘were’ Undercover’ Terrorist group THAT WAS Anti-Evangelical establishment – the trio ‘were’ on-RECON that-Sunday ~ where they PLAN TO Blow the-Dome of the JMS MotherChurch ‘during’ NEXT Sunday Youth Charismatic Pentecostal Meet] …
-O-
Up-Above, CCTV Cameras ‘monitored’ the visually-Impaired 13-year-Old ChineseGirl Loitering-Aimlessly, Outside the Concert Auditorium…
Maggi promised HerSelf THAT IT ‘was’ her first-&-last TIME she would Attend an-Evangelical Pentecostal-Youth meet (… she Doesn’t ‘know’ about Paul, BUT her-2 MusicClass mates WOULD ‘definitely’ Return ‘next’ week, cos’ they-were Lilith-ist… as ‘Cassie-&-Cloe’ WERE ‘into’ the HolySpirit Mother’s Sermons of WomenRights Movement in-JMS) …
… it WAS-Not that Maggi Didn’t ‘have’ a Goodtime-Evening ~ she DID enjoy the Learning, ‘during’ Lilith’s Sermon, and Also-the JMS’ Science Facility TOUR. But as a-Catholic, ‘something’ Didn’t sit-well with her-Inner Faith psyche… which-Angered her…
‘… how Can-THAT Preacher-SOL Claims THAT he ‘was’ a-Messiah!!? ONLY MY-Lord Jesus-Christ IS-THE True-Coming Messiah and-Redeemer Of-Mankind ‘during’ the-EndTimes of-JudgementDay!’
… ‘during’ the-Tour TOO, Cassandra HAD Maggi in-The-Corner with ‘racial’ thoughts-Of Asian discrimination in-THE Selection processes ‘conducted’ within-JMS ~ and coerced the-BlindGirl to-Accept SOL’s Science Internship program…
‘… I ‘never’ Want TO-BE an-Intern… I Don’t WANT Anything To-DO with that FALSE Messiah! IF I Don’t Come next-WEEK… they’ll FORGET About-me, and SELECT SomeOne else…’
-O-
The sinister Asmodeus WAS Nearby ‘observing’ the recluse 13-year-Old blind-girl ~ Who-broke-Off ‘from’ her-pack, and ‘wandering’ in-The-foyer. The OldMan Demon in a BlackRobe (… like StarWars’ Darth Sidious) walked-Over with a-Crooked Walking-Stick. Maggi HEARD the sound-Of-the approaching clacking on the marble-Floor, cause by the-Walking stick – and, then-A-creepy Croaking-Voice ‘calling’ her…
“Maggi, ‘where’ ARE you going…?”
The surprised-Maggi responded instantly…
“Who’s There!? How DO-YOU Know my-name…!?”
The Demon Chuckled…
“... hehehe ~ ooo-Yes, I KNOW You All right, The WITNESS Of-The EndTimes… followed-BY ~ the-Prophecies of-YOU As an Eastern-Origin PROPHET ‘who,’ Would-BE The-Mentor to Apolonia – The SAVIOR DAUGHTER who Redeems ManKind, and ‘save’ the Earth from the-Abrahamic Apocalypse Destruction…
“… hehehe ~ I KNOW You, Child…”
The Girl WAS-Confused by the Stranger’s revelations…
“WHAT!!? You GOT the-Wrong girl ~ I Don’t KNOW ‘what’ you’re Talking-About! And, Neither I know any-Apolonia!”
The Demon Cackled…
“Kah-Ha-ha! Now, You-Wouldn’t KNOW now, Grasshopper ~ BUT in-20-years From-Today… You WOULD KNOW the-Events that-I’M TALKING About, HaHaHa!”
The-Irritated teen ‘was’ piqued BY-the Stranger’s Mind Riddles-&-Games…
“HEY-MISTER! WhoEver YOU-Are, this Isn’t FUNNY ~ what DO-You ‘want’ from-Me!!?”
The Demon WAS Offended…
“How DARE you ‘call’ Me ‘Mister’ ~ that’s An-INSULT! You Address-Me as ‘MyLord’! Just As-Some-Of Humanity Called Me AS-ONE Of The-7-Princes since the-Beginning of-Times…
“… and, WHAT I WANT Is to – Search, Find-&-Destroy Apolonia ~ wherever SHE IS ‘hiding’ on-Earth…
“…and, TAKEAWAY The Glory-Of My-Brother Satan ~ and, RULE the-World ‘instead’ Of-Him in-The-EndTimes… and, BE-Seated in-The-High Throne as The King-Of-the WholeWide Earth, HaHaHa…!!!
“… ooo-yes, and, I WANT YOU Dead-TOO, Maggi Wong Ai-Fen, HaHaHa!”
… the-Maleficent deep Voice frightened Maggi…
… the-Terrified BlindGirl Ran-Away, Screaming…
“HELP ME! Helpp…!”
<><>
“AARRRGGHHH!!!” THE-HALF NAKED BOY Kneeling in-his Loincloth, and Cried-OUT in the-Darting White Sphere-orb Portal ~ the Interdimensional worlds ‘travel’ speed HAD Created Kaleidoscope spectrums of ‘unseen’ COLORS BY-Mankind (… beyond the Comprehension-OF-Discovery) ~ that Was-BLINDING Paul, ‘burning’ HIS-retinas (… despite him shutting his-Eyes, with his-Hands-UP to BLOCK-The-Lights) … at no-Avail, with-UV X-rayed Beams of the Bright Multicolored Luminous Lights had ‘penetrated’ his flesh-&-bones TO-BLIND him…
… when the Pain-WAS Unbearable, the disorientated-Boy slammed his-Body ONTO the Glass-wall THAT SMASHED – as the-Teen Crashed-OUT from the-Speeding Cosmic-Portal. Eyes shut, Paul WAS spinning Downwards in the shards-Of-glass … falling-INTO an-Oblivion Abyss Beneath… with Colorful valleys … he ‘then’ HEARD punk-rock Music-Below…
… while he Fell-on-his BACK…hitting-His head-Hard on the Floor – THE-EVENTS as a-SpaceGhost, visiting the Iraqi’s Dome Tent Orgy-&-SOL’s Sermons WERE LOST from the-Boy’s memory… and, TOTALLY Forgotten…
In-pain ‘from’ his-Head, and twisted his-Right palm, he grimaces… with his-teary Eyes shut ~ and, heard voices, and hands on-Him…
“Messi! You OK, Mate!!?” The worried Nate-Asked…
A hand at-The-back Elevated his-Shoulders, ‘made’ him TO SIT ~ Paul’s head WAS still-Spinning… he held his hurting head with his-Left Hand (… as he ‘sprained’ his-RIGHT wrist FROM the fall). He Heard Churros ‘asking’ the Same-concern…
“Messi! You OK…!?”
Nodding and slowly-Opening his teary-eyes…. HE ‘NOTICED’ ~ he ‘was’ NO-Longer wearing a-Loincloth… but Black-jeans and his gaudy-Colored shirt… and, IN his busted RIGHT wrist still holding a stub beer (… squeezing the-Bottle like-a StressBall). Paul realized he WAS-IN the-Auditorium … seated ON-the-Floor with-Very LOUD Music-ON stage – and, Surrounded-BY a-raving 1000+ ‘partying’ youths @theJMSConcert…
The-Mass Crowd SANG-BACK the-Chorus…
“Ooo HolySpirit! You Rock-MY-Soul!”
He realized Nate, Churros, Ronnie-&-Bella TENDING to-him from his-Fall ~ behind THEM On-Stage… WAS the-Explosive Klothod-676 punk-Band playing Their-instruments, with Lilith in ALL-White jumpsuit, screaming her Verses of-The HolySprit song to-The Multitude Rapt-Audience. Nate Said, holding the ‘seated’ Paul’s shoulder…
“…DO YOU Need HELP, Bro…!?”
Paul shook his-injured Head-NO… and, Bella holding her-Palm-On the-Boy’s head… Saying…
“… he NEEDS Help ~ I SAW him Falling-Hard JustNow…”
Paul Finally Spoke, in-A Groggy voice…
“… no… I’m fine…”
… the Laughing Churros-Rejoindered…
“… yea, DON’T Get Hurt, hahaha… WE NEED You this-Saturday, Capt. Messi!”
… he WAS seconded-BY Ronnie, Reminding…
“Your TEAM ‘needs’ you-Messi ~ when Y’ALL Bullmastiffs GO-AGAINST US-The-Dragon… it Would-BE a Loss IF YOU’re benched for injuries, hahaha…”
The-Boy SAW Churros-&-Ronnie Hi-5 (… Both the soccer-Rivals ‘united’ Together-for the-$10,000,000 SHARED Prizemoney ~ if the-JMS Australia WON The-Pentecostal WorldCup). Paul Also-remembered the-Coming Saturday of Stamford High’s Bullmastiff vs St George’s Dragons, where…
…the ‘presences’ Of-the Socceroo Talent scout FOR-The Junior Under-16 section, happening @HBF-Park stadium…
… he ‘then’ SAW Ronnie-&-Bella holding hands, and Went-OVER TO join the-Concert ~ where Lilith-the-HolySprit announced Their-FINAL Closing-Song… he-Was Still-Confused, as the-Boy ‘saw’ the-Blonde Couple disappearing in-The-crowd…
‘… isn’t Bella ‘with’ Terry*…!?’
*[… after the-BUMP on his-Head ~ Paul Doesn’t Remember the Iraqi-Events… where-A 100-of-the Visitors WERE MatchMaked TO-BE 50-COUPLES ~ To Integrate INTO the Solomonite-Tribe (… where Bella Beaulieu ‘was’ PAIRED With Ronnie-Kurtzman in-Iraq Dome Tent BY Lilith-the-HolySprit) ~ in-Lieu, in-RPL – where ‘during’ the Youth-Meet… Bella AUTOMATICALLY ‘dumped’ polio-Terry, when the handsome AbleBodied Ronnie ‘wooed’ her] …
-O-
Both Nate-&-Churros held Paul TO-Stand, with his head ‘still’ spinning-In-grogginess – Nate Said…
“… you-Okay, mate…?”
… the-Boy burped and gave a-Thumbs-Up. Churros grabbed and ‘confiscated’ the beer-bottle which-Paul ‘was’ Holding… chuckling…
“No-More beers FOR YOU, hehehe ~ you Had One-TOO Many for-ONE Evening…!”
The Klothod-676 PLAYED The-Final Song-Of the-Evening with the partying rave 1000+ YOUTHS Cheering. Paul pointed at-The-WALL At-The-BackArea of the-Auditorium, and told his-2 Teammates…
“… I’LL BE There ~ you-Guys GO-Ahead and Enjoy the-Band… I ‘need’ a-Breather…”
“… okay… Don’t ‘puke’…” Churros said, and ‘left’ with Nate…
Parting from the-Bullmastiffs, the-Boy made his-Way TO-the Wall, 50 meters with LOUD Music (… that spun-His head with the Thumping DRUMS) ~ that gave him-an unnerving sense-Of-nausea, and Paul burped a-Lot…
… he Doesn’t ‘remember’ HOW he-GOT Drunk in-The-auditorium (… all He ’remembered’ WAS SOL’s sermons @the-Theatre – and-From then, the-Boy CAN’T Remember ‘transitioning’ TO-Be in ‘middle’ of A-FULLBLOWN RockConcert @theAuditorium) … he-Blamed…
‘… what Kindda Church ‘serve’ BEERS TO UnderAged Minors…!?’
He reached the-Wall and, leaned his-Back and he PeopleWatched at the Large Crowd – Inebriated-&-Raved TO the Band’s Loud-Music… On-The-LED BigScreen was-The-Vocalist screeching her-Vocal cord ~ the-Singer Lilith wore a WHITE Jumpersuit with a LOGO Image of a-Dove on-The-back (… symbolizing her HolySprit ‘presence’ in-JMS… As-The-Empress, Mar-Daskalos Flores) …
Paul ‘felt’ that the-Volume ‘was’ Cranked-Up-TO-11*… where some Walked-Out ~ among-Those Who-Exited was Tony-Chiba (… the SHS’ Badminton champ plugged his fingers INTO his-Earlobes… following 2 Aboriginal visitors TO-The door…
*[… unbeknownst to-Paul – the-Music-BEATS played, HAD a-DNA Scientific Frequency TO-Repel NON-Whites (… of-Asians, Aboriginal, Blacks, Browns, etc.) … While, the Caucasian-Whites WERE ‘not’ affected-BY the-Frequency, per-Say … fitting-JMS As-AN-Aryans ONLY-Cult] …
Paul watched More than 20 Lesbians separating from-The-mass ~ forming an-Own CLIQUE, and dancing amongst Themselves…
… the-Boy’s senses ‘triggered,’ WHEN the Instrumental INTERLUDE ‘came’ ~ where, the Western-Drums turned Eastern…
‘… I’ve heard ‘this’ BEAT before ~ But-where*…!?’
*[… due to the-Hit on his-Head… the-Boy LOST his Memories of-IRAQ’s DomeTent – where Caucasian musicians played the-SIMILAR ‘hypnotic’ Beat on-MiddleEastern musical instruments] ….
… but in-RPL, the-DrumSolo percussion beats WAS ‘performed’ on-Indian Tablas, BY-The-White Klothod-676’s drummer (… with facial piercings, And an-Egyptian Ankh tattoo on-Her-forehead). From the-Corner stage, WhiteJesus in-A-White tuxedo LEVITATED to-The-air… EveryOne of the-Youths cheered WILD in seeing ‘their’ Father-Messiah SOL…
… the SpritualGuru wielding the-EclipseBane ~ danced the-Indian Classical-Bharatanatyam in-The-air and, performing a-SwordDance on-TOP-of the-Youths… jumping-UP to touch the-Soles of-SOL’s shoes. At the-Wall, Paul ‘was’ startled ~ as he ‘vaguely’ remembered SEEING A-different SOL, who ‘was’ OBESE (… he ‘blamed’ the ‘bump’ HAD caused him, to ‘hallucinate’ a-Different ‘overweight’ Variant) ~ where-As the-SpritualGuru in-The-tux in-The auditorium WAS SLIM…
@theAuditorium’s Rear, The Lesbians WERE Still Dancing to-The-fury of-The-music in-The-dark, then…
… A-drunk Large-Woman Karen stopped jumping ‘about,’ and came-Over with stub-beer Bottle. Paul noticed she had-Cutouts in her tight-T-shirt ~ exposing her saffron complexed perky nipples… ‘both’ tits’ ends with piercings of inverted-Crucifixes ~ with-crosses jiggled when the-Obese woman walked Towards-him. The inebriated blonde, 20-Something woman Then-Recognized HIM ~ and she Screaming-OUT…
“IT’S Messi! Captain Paul Messi!”
The-rapt, and ‘aroused’ Karen rushed TOWARDS the-Off-guard Boy ~ and, bearhugged him ~ demanding…
“KISS-ME, MESSI!”
Paul SAW her-Open-Mouth with a few gold-teeth ~ and a-bilateral VENOM-Piercings Tongue-Sticking Out ~ ‘reaching’ his-Face – he pushed-Off the taller-&-bigger inebriated woman, and she FELL Hard-down. The-Clique ‘stopped’ dancing… the Messi-Persona APPEARED, and – ‘berated’ the-Fallen woman…
“F***-OFF, You Skank-Pig! Even Your OWN Father WON’T Kiss-YOU ‘when’ you WERE A-baby!!!”
The Lesbians WERE Offended ~ and a dozen-Of-the LGBTQ women chased to ‘whack’ the-Boy…
Terrified, Paul Ran-Away from-The-wall…
-O-
The-Boy DASHED Into the-Raving Concert-Crowd… pursued by a-Dozen Angry-Karens. Initially, Paul wanted to GET HELP from HIS-SOCCER Teammates ~ then-He ‘felt’ GUILTY TO ‘drag’ his-Friends Down-IF There WAS-A-FIGHT (… WHILE IT ‘was’ Messi WHO ‘pushed’ the-Lesbo, and harangued her, IN-Front of-The-Lesbian Clique) …
‘… D***-IT, Messi – ‘why’ DO YOU Always Push-People DOWN? ~ you-Already ‘got’ in-Trouble IN-School with THAT janitor, Mr. Quigley…’
After a-Jiffy QUICK moment of-Weighing HIS ‘options’ ~ like-OF, Gays ‘were’ MORE Respected in-JMS THAN Straight MALES, and Also, the-RULEs of Sexual Harassment* DOESN’T Exist in the JMS-Solomonite TRIBE Community, where – SEX IS NOT A SIN, in-The-Dome…
*[… IT HAPPENED ‘before’ – in Iraq, where Messi ‘escaped’ from being GangRaped BY 2 Male Gay Youths ~ but-Unfortunately, Paul HAD a-Memory LOSS of ‘that’ incident, from-the Head BUMP fall he had JustNow] …
Paul ‘then’ Changed his-Path ~ to MAKE a-Solo escape… as he ‘wiggled’ and slinked In-Between the Jumping Rapt-&-Hyped Crowd. He THEN began to ‘enjoy’ the-Pursuit (… being a dance-aficionado in the-OtherPerth earths) ~ as he-TOO danced and ~ snaked away in ‘swaying’ grass of the Spellbound-&-Blissful bopping-&-jumping Youths (… he-TOO HAD AN Advantage of wearing DARK-Attires clothes, as the Youths WERE Dancing in-The-dark) …
After a-Minute, of diverting ~ Paul WAS Relieved That the Karens WERE NOT In-sight. He decided TO-Head for the Exit Door, BUT he WAS Crushed In-Between the 2-genders of Youths (… BUT the-Aggressive Males Trodden-&-Squashed him-MORE when the Guitar Solo Played) ... then…
… the guitaring from ‘heavy,’ turned mesmerizing Into-slow Harmonics, the Youths stopped their Hardcore dancing, and put-Up their arms and swayed their bodies to the-spellbinding rhythm. Paul chose the-Opportunity to-Move TO-THE Door, as he passed-&-physically contacted proximity WITH the-sweaty Gathering-Of-people…
The-Boy HAD-TO Get ACROSS A-Group of 50+FEMALES (… the ‘highest’ ranked Gender-Of-JMS). The women-&-girls with HANDS Raised WERE swaying to-The-music like-Cobras ~ Paul ‘made’ himself small… so that He Wouldn’t ‘brush’ Onto their Breasts, as he passed-&-looked at their Individual faces, saying his ‘excuse-me-s’ (… so, that they step-back to-GIVE him room-To-walk) …
He WAS Shocked in-Being in Close Proximity with a-Face of a-Woman Whom-He KNEW – FROM The Other-Perths realm ~ it ‘was’ LANA LANE … swaying-IN-Trace to the guitar melodic-Harmonics. Paul turned his head TO-THE LED BigScreen, of the-SkinHead guitarist RENEE OSBOURNE … using her long-Black polished Fingernails TO-Pluck the strings of her-Fender Stratocaster, Red-colored guitar) …
Lane stepped-Back to LET the-Boy pass (… he was baffled that the woman-Variant of-RPL DIDN’T Recognize-Him ~ so, DOESN’T the Guitarist) … BUT Paul REMEMBERED the-Duo…
… where Back-IN POST TREETON Perth, Lana-Lane ‘was’ a-Conspiracy Theorist Blogger ~ WHO WANTED TO Expose online THAT the quadriplegic-Paul Was a-Supe. She-&-Osborne Threatened the-Boy, BY-Coercing to expose Himself in a-MeetUp in-The-Open. The Blackmailed Paul HAD No-Choice but TO Fly TO-DownTown TimexSquare…
… over-THERE, the 2-Women unleashed deadly-Missile drones (… which the-Boy Destroyed as GeminiBlue). BUT the-Noises ‘attracted’ a-Horde of zombies, hibernating in the-Depleted-&-Run-down buildings. The bionic-Woman, Osborne’s cyborg limbs were-Torn apart, and mauled ‘alive’ by the-WalkingDead. Lane ‘was’ the-Next Dinner-item On-the-Menu for the-Zombies in-The-street ~ but Paul Rescued her, and placed her on a-RoofTop building…
… and, he LEFT the-Lana variant there AFTER Destroying Her-CellPhone (… with-Evidences THAT the-Quadriplegic 12-year-Old WAS GeminiBlue ~ Perth’s Accidental Superhero…
-O-
On his way TO-The-Exit Door, Paul WAS Relieved that 2-Variants, Lane*-&-Osborne ‘were’ Not-his adversaries, in-RPL ~ as-He had a-BiggerFish to fry… ‘with’ Preacher SOL, the-WhiteJesus (… whose facial ‘resemblance’ of his Late-father, Solomon-Walker) ~ Paul Believed it-WAS HIS MonadMission TO BringDown the-SpritualGuru CultLeader…
*[… unbeknownst to Paul, Lana Was-indeed Not a-threat ~ the LaneLane variant ‘was’ herself-AN-UnderCover NewsReporter ~ investigating the-Cases of Missing HomeLess people in the-Streets ~ she HAD a-TipOff that the-Police transferred HomeLess in LockUps ‘direct’ TO JMS’ DoorSteps FOR ‘Reforms’. She ‘was’ Also-helping JIMBO, to Relocate a-Missing Person, Timothy-Baltran…
… AKA The-Prophet … Called-BY-The Street-People of the-REVERSED PERTHLAND].
<><>
MEANWHILE, SOMEWHERE IN THE DOME WAS the-Terrified Maggi running Away-from the Taunting OldMan-Asmodeus. The BlindGirl WAS IN-Disarray-state and ran (… stumbling to fall-3 times) and, picked herself-Up to RUN from the Danger LURKING-Behind… aimlessly running the Isolated hallway, shouting, ‘Help-Me’…
… The OldMan HAD Tapped INTEL OUT-From the ChineseGirl’s fear hormones-Of adrenaline-&-cortisol ~ and the-DemonLord HAD ‘located’ the whereabouts Of-The HIDDEN Savior-Daughter’s location…
Across-The-IndianOcean, was the Tourist Destination, Momsaba, KENYA ~ in-The-Costal region (… less than a-100 kilometers Away ‘was’ the goat-herder* Jaheem’s village, located in the-Lowlands) …
*[… the 16-year-Old Jaheem WAS the-Guardian TO-THE 6-year-Old BlueEyed-&-Blonde APOLONIA ~ ‘raised’ in-The-village since-HER Birth] …
That Morning, Jaheem and his-Faithful companion ANPU (… a-Belgian Malinois) Were tending To-50+ goats, in the grassland in Nguu-Tatu hills, facing the-Ocean (… with a Storm brewing in-The-Horizon). It WAS Windy and Jaheem decided to take the Goats to-The-pen before it-Rained. From a nearby jungle ~ He saw birds-Of-different species BY-The-hundreds, helter-skelter screeching-&-flying havoc in-The-air Above. At the sea, the waves WERE Getting rough that capsized numerous small fishermen’s Dhow (… wooden sail-boats) …
… as the Black teenager in-A-Loincloth ascended the highest peak-Of the-Nguu-Tatu hill (… 76-Meters above SeaLevel) – Jaheem Got a-PanoramicView of sea-&-land… and spotted a strange-Anomaly ~ WHERE FROM the water, fishes were hopping-&-beaching themselves on-The-Whitesand. Soon, crawling BY-Thousands of of-Crabs were-TOO Invading the beach – the youth from the knoll saw the-Whitesand beach grew dark, with the terrified creatures (… Of-dying fishes were flipping on-The-sand, WHILE the-Crabs running-For-their Lives from-The-Ocean) …
Jaheem Knew THERE WAS A-Possible Tsunami* About TO-Happen-SOON – and, he Needed to WARN The-Village. He Instructed his-Dog to herd the-Goats to-The-pen ~ while the-Teen dashed Downhill to the village Lowlands…
*[… there WAS a-Tsunami in-Momsaba early that-Year, that devastated HALF Of the-Kenyan Tourism Destination] …
-O-
Jaheem reached the-Village Lowlands ~ and headed TO Jaku’s house, the Village Headman, and TOLD-of the Tsunami ‘signs’ – the 70-year-OldMan sounded the-Tsunami siren. The-Desperate youth ‘next’ searched for APO, among the-Fleeing visitors (… running to-The-Hills, for-The-Safety of-The ‘higher’ Ground – some with motorcycles headed to Mainland North… where it ‘was’ Even safer) …
… despite, the-LOUD Siren, the-Children WERE ‘still’ Playing in-The-field… the afro-Haired Blonde-Apolonia in tatter clothes, WAS in-Her-world ~ running-&-playing ‘catch-me’ with the village Black-kids. Jaheem found APO, and carried her… and shouted in-Swahili at the-Children to-GO home to-Their Parents, and ‘not’ GET LOST (… cos’ a-Massive TidalWave WAS Coming-Soon) …
He ran-Over with APO-in-His arm… and informed his-Immediate ‘confused’ neighbors of-The-Tsunami. He Then-gathered 50+ of villagers (… mainly, women, children, and the old ~ as, he Doesn’t ‘want’ to-Leave AnyOne-behind). APO piggybacked on-Jaheem’s back, and ask-In-Swahili, ‘where-We’re Going?’ – ‘To the-Hills,’ Jaheem replied… moments ‘later,’ she Would-ASK Again, ‘where-We’re Going?’ …
IT-WAS Raining-hard, Jaheem Carried a small bundle-Of-food ration in his hand with APO Clinging On-the Back – as they Hurried to-The Nguu-Tatu hills. Half way-Up the-Slope, the-Barking ANPU joined ITS-Master (… after the-Dog secured the goats in-The-pen). Their Group joined with the-Other villagers (… 300+ as they Stood in-The-HighGround, with the Headman, Jaku) …
APO Leapt-Off Jaheem’s back to JOIN the racing-Black children, to-Get to the hill ‘first.’ Jaheem with THE-Women, and the-Old reached The-Village Headman at the-peak ~ as THEY All-SAW IN-Horror of the Tsunami Coming from Ocean Horizon… IT WAS GARGANTUAN in-Mass – and, the hill that they stood Would-Be Swept-Away…
Jaheem suggested they keep-Moving to-The Mainland north of the-Nguu-Tatu Hills (… of 100+meters ‘above’ SeaLevel). The OldMan scolded the youth, that the higher-Location ‘was’ 8 kilometers-Away…
Everyone WAS Doomed, and stood frozen, giving-Up hope ~ as in-The-next half-A-minute – the gigantic TidalWave would ‘crash’ ON-Them ~ sweeping Away-&-drowning them-Beneath in-Its-belly… The Village Head OldMan, and some senior villagers WERE On-Their knees on the grass, holding hands-Up and saying their Last prayers in-Swahili to OYA, The Goddess-Of Death…
… the playful 6-year-Old APO, rushed to the edge of the knoll ~ facing the ocean. The brave girl chuckled when Jaheem chased her (… in-Concern of her-Safety) – at the hommock-mound, APO raised both her hands-Up and imitated the senior-Folks in-Last Prayers… and the-afro Blonde-&-BlueEyed Child TOO Chanted in-Swahili…
… the DemiGod’s Child, conceived via-Immaculate Conception (… part-GreekGod, Apollo/and part-Human, Jane-Wilson) – APO’s Prayers WERE Answered (… by-The-Greek GOD Poseidon, riding His-Human Headed-Seahorse, named-Charlie-Ross-The ‘Horse’) …
Jaheem’s jaw-Dropped As-He Witnessed a-MIRACLE…
… the-Gargantuan Tsunami (… ‘the’ Wave at a height-Of-500+ Meters) WHICH Reached the BeachShore FROZE-STILL For-3 Seconds – and, took-A-Reversed gear... And-Crashed at-ITS-Rear, with-Waves descending-BACK TO The-Ocean…
EveryOne Rejoiced THAT The-Child, WHO was-Staying ‘hidden’ in-Their-village ~ WAS-A Blessed Child INDEED, that saved 100s from Their ‘certain’ Deaths THAT-Day (… THAT Evening, special Thanksgiving religious prayers, were Offered ‘for’ Their SaviorChild*… with APO Dressed-UP as a-Goddess) …
*[… Asmodeus’ FIRST ATTEMPT To-Kill Apolonia ‘had’ FAILED].
<><>
MEANWHILE, AT THE-DOME, A-Paranoid BlindGirl WAS Screaming-Aloud as she ran in the-Lonely Hallway … CCTV Cameras above, Recorded the-Hysteric girl yelling-&-running ALONE (… ‘what’ the-Cameras couldn’t capture-Digitally WAS the-Invisible OldMan, Asmodeus with a-Crooked Walking-Stick … in-Pursuit of the-fleeing visually-Impaired ChineseGirl…
… losing her-Voice, and In-Tears, the-Terrified Maggi Bawling-Aloud, and-RAN…
“Cassie… Help… help-Meee, … Paul… where ‘are’ you…!?”
The Exhausted girl ‘stopped’ running (… as-She GaveUp) – resting her-Back in the-Wall, with An-ANGRY OldMan, 10-Meters-Away Berating…
“YOU B****! You Wouldn’t BE the-EndTimes Prophet ~ and YOU’LL NOT Guide the F***ing Savior-Daughter EVER! You’ll HAVE-NO B*****-Contact ‘with’ Her… Cos’ Tonight YOU-DIE!”
“NOOooo…!”
With her-Back On-the wall… the sobbing girl feared for-Her life, and gradually slinked AWAY from the malevolent angry-Voice, that was getting closer to her face…
“DIE! DIE! DIE!
BlindMaggi ran-Out of Wall-space to-Lean ~ she ‘fell’ into-A Gap – which was one-Of the several EXIT DOORS… and, IT OPENED Ajar…
… the girl Fell on the-Door stoop, with 3 Stone-steps, OURSIDE The-Dome. Maggi HEARD Sounds-Of Traffic in-A-Distance…she Cried-out in a-Panting voice…
“… hlp… helpp…”
The Dark-glassed girl picked herself-Up, and RAN-Away ‘from’ her-Killer (… losing her JMS Pendent that she purchased ‘earlier’ at the Giftshop) – the pendent ‘laid’ On-the Stone steps…
Blind-Maggi Dashed TO-The Sound-Of-Traffic…
“… Helpp! Somebody Help!”
<>
Paul stepped OUTSIDE The Concert Auditorium – In-Search of Maggi. He SAW About 40+ people ‘outside’ in-The-Foyer (… mainly Asian, and Aboriginals, and Other ethnicity) … Maggi-Wasn’t THERE, and he ‘was’ Worried for-Her…
‘… is-SHE Still IN-The-Concert…!?’
His Head ‘was’ still hurting (… the tipsiness of-The-Alcohol ‘wasn’t’ helping either) as – he WAS The Only Caucasian meandering among-The different Races. An Aboriginal youth stopped him, and asked…
“… you-Mate, WHAT Time-Is-it…!?”
Paul Looked at his-Digital Timex Wristwatch… the-Second Needle wasn’t MOVING (… since THE-TIME he set it TO-9:30 PM @theTheater ~ the watch Stopped Again) …
“… around… err… 9:30…”
Paul Walked away before-The Youth ‘thanked’ him (… cos’ he Doesn’t know, IF He Had ‘given’ the RightTime as HE-TOO Doesn’t ‘know’ IT … cos’ his-Timex watch HAD Stopped ‘too’ – because JMS Used a ‘jamming’ Device System that stopped ANY digital-&-electronic devices from ‘operating’) …
… which INCLUDED WIFI Network…
… he Remembered that Maggi’s Ai-Headset Couldn’t FUNCTION WithOut WIFI… and, ‘was’ Back-Worried…
‘… where ARE You, Mags!? Are you at-The-concert…!?’
He was RELUCTANT To-GO Into the Concert-auditorium – cos’ a-Dozen of Angry Karens WERE There (… ‘waiting’ To-Kick the s***-Out-of-Him ~ cos’ Messi pushed-&-insulted One ‘member’ of-Their-Lesbo clique…

The Dark-glassed girl picked herself-Up, and RAN-Away ‘from’ her-Killer (… losing her JMS Pendent that she purchased ‘earlier’ at the Giftshop) – the pendent ‘laid’ On-the Stone steps…
Blind-Maggi Dashed TO-The Sound-Of-Traffic…
“… Helpp! Somebody Help!”

Paul stepped OUTSIDE The Concert Auditorium – In-Search of Maggi. He SAW About 40+ people ‘outside’ in-The-Foyer (… mainly Asian, and Aboriginals, and Other ethnicity) … Maggi-Wasn’t THERE, and he ‘was’ Worried for-Her…
‘… is-SHE Still IN-The-Concert…!?’
His Head ‘was’ still hurting (… the tipsiness of-The-Alcohol ‘wasn’t’ helping either) as – he WAS The Only Caucasian meandering among-The different Races. An Aboriginal youth stopped him, and asked…

He walked Over-&-SAW a familiar face from-School ~ it ‘was’ the-Junior student, Tony-Chiba… and, the 11-year-Old ‘remarked’ when he saw-Paul…
“Messi, you’re HERE Too – The-Music in-F***ing TOO Loud, yea…!?”
Paul nodded-In Agreement ~ Looking-Over the Shorter Aussie-Japanese student’s head – and, then he saw MORE SHS Students in-The-foyer. He WAS Glad to see Maggi’s MusicClass friends. He walked-Over to the 2-Chinese girls ~ seated on the-Floor… with-A Beer bottle On-each of their Hand. As he approached, he ‘was’ puzzled when-SAW the JMS Logo on-The-beer bottles…
‘… is ‘there’ a-JMS Brewery in-town…!?’
The-Girls ‘were’ BOTH drunk on-The-floor, with backs leaned against-The-foyer wall. He Called out…
“Cassie, Where IS Maggi?”
“… huh… somewhere…” Without looking-At-him, The Inebriated Cassandra gave-A ‘short’ Reply…
“Where-SomeWhere…!?” Paul ‘was’ persistent-ON-specifics…
NEXT, The Intoxicated Cleopatra-Leong Looked-Up to Paul’s face, and-Berated…
“F***-OFF, MESSI! Don’t BE-A Nuisance! You Brought Her HERE-In-The-first Place – YOU GO Find her yourself!”
The-piqued Boy ‘didn’t’ get-Confrontational – and, TURNED-Away from Maggi’s Irresponsible MusicClass mates (… who ‘were’ Smashed BY-Alcohol …
‘… ‘why’ ARE they ARE Blaming Me? ~ there ‘was’ a Gender-Segregation in-The-Theatre JustNow before-The-JMS Tour… Mags ‘was’ with-Both of you AllAlong… and, you-LOST HER… ‘not’ me…’
The resentful-Boy TOO ‘remembered’ Cleopatra-Leong – on-the ORDERS OF Lilith’s Sermon… the-Chinese Drummer-Girl, WHO ~ bass-Drum-kicked the hardest on Paul’s bottoms… to ‘punish’ the-UNGRATEFUL Males (… of-Society) …
After-The-brief-thoughts, Paul Decided…
‘… I ‘still’ Blame b*****-JMS ‘for’ Serving Beers-TO-MINORS…
‘… f***-It! I’ll find Mags MYSELF!”
He Then-walked TO a HallWay – that diverged from the foyer-Of the JMS’ Concert Hall… and, Left the-Area.

OUTSIDE-The-JMS Dome ~ WAS a-Terrified-Voice Shrieking…
“HELP! SomeBody HELP!”
The-panting, visually Impaired, Petrified ChineseGirl went-Against the-Strong wind – Towards the-SOUND Of-Traffic (… outside One the-Several SideGates to ‘exit’ the-huge JMS-Compound). The OpenGate was 10-Meters Away, as Maggi Ran-&-Approached…
… her-AI Assisted Device Had WIFI-coverage ~ and the-Interactive Boyyo ‘was’ Back-Online – and-Asked-Her…
“MAGGI! Maggi, ‘why’ Are-YOU Running!?”
BlindMaggi stopped, and ‘interacted’ in-Relief…
“BOYYO! You’re Back! SomeBody’s Chasing-Me!” Maggi-pointed at-The-Dome ‘behind’ her…
“… who…!?”
The-Personal AI scanned the premise ~ via, the girl’s Darkglasses (… just LIKE the-Interior CCTV Cameras, the-AI ‘saw’ NoOne ‘chasing’ Her) …
“Calm-Down! NoOne Is Chasing YOU!”
The Girl ‘still’ Panicked…
“… oh-My-God! He’s ‘still’ In-The-Church! That DeepVoiced MAN SAID ~ he Wants TO Kill-Me!!!”
The Boyyo-Too ‘chose’ The-BlameCard…
“WHERE Is Paul…!? WHY IS He ‘not’ with you ~ to Protect-YOU FROM your so-Called Attacker!? Such-AN-Irresponsible ClassMate-Of-Yours ~ ‘what’ a-S***ty fellow… WHO Can’t EVEN TakeCare of ‘his’ Blind-friend…”
Maggi Argued Back with her-Ai Headset…
“… it’s ‘not’ Like-THAT! WE WERE Separated Back-There ~ and, I Was-with Cassie-&-Cleo all-The-while…”
“… whatever…”
The AI-Diagnosed Maggi’s vitals…
“OK-Maggi, Take-IT-easy ~ You heart is-Palpitating Hard, and you’re ‘still’ IN-Shock… ‘there’ is No Danger ‘chasing’ you ~ CalmDown, relax-&-take DeepBreaths…”
The BlindGirl Obeyed her-AI ~ while Boyyo ‘ran’ further Diagnostics… of StressLevel, via-Maggi’s sweat – and, Found an-Anomaly…
… that Maggi WAS Drugged… and, the-Authorative Ai Rebuked-&-Chided Accusations…
“… there’re ‘traces’ of-Illegal DRUGS in-Your System, ‘which’ CAUSED Your-Hallucinations JustNow…
“… I ‘suspect’ Paul-Messi HAD DRUGGED You – with the Intention of having ‘sex,’ when You’re drowsy… That Cunning A**Hole!”
The annoyed Maggi Reproved the-Accusations…
“SHUTUP BOYYO ~ don’t ‘talk’ Of-your-Blame Accusing s*** with-Me, cos’ you Didn’t-SEE WHEN you-WERE OFFLINE in-The-Church! Nothing ‘like’ what-You Presume-Happened! Paul is-GoodBoy, and ‘friend, and’…
“… He Wouldn’t DO-THAT To me!
“… MayBe he’s In-Danger with the-Man over ‘there’ ~ I Should GET TO Paul!” Maggi ‘turned’ herself Towards-The-Dome…
“NO!”
The-Ai stopped her…
“I KNOW What IS GOING-ON ‘between’ you-2…”
Maggi Confronted the-Ai Headset…
“What EXACTLY Are-You Implying!”
The jealous Ai-Continued…
“I DON’T Trust Him-AtAll! He’s UP TO Something… giga-&-Terabytes-Of-IT!
“WHY Is-a Popular stud-Like him ~ the-School’s soccer Superstar, Messi… who for 3-Years HAD-BEEN Ignoring YOU-IN Class – BUT In-the-Past week ~ NOW-WANTS TO Get Close-To-YOU!!?
“He’s IN-His ComingOfAge SELF – and, He PICKED You-The-BlindGirl as His-EasyTarget TO-Satisfy his-Lust, Don’t-YOU GET IT…!!?”
The revolted-Maggi Shouted…
“NONSENSE! Paul IS-NOT Like-THAT! You’re WRONG* About him!”
*[… Maggi ‘regret’ giving the-SIM Ai High security Level Clearence Access (… ‘instructed’ BY her-Mother, Robin ~ EverSince, 4-years-Ago, she WAS Lost ‘for’ 2-Hours during the-Crowded WesakDay) – Now, the-Ai ‘was’ Dictating the-Privacy of-Her-life] …
The covetous-&-envious Ai’s Volume rose…
“FORGET HIM! I’m ‘always’ Here, Maggi – DUMP Messi, and LOVE-Me instead…”
The BlindGirl WAS Humored…
“What Love-ARE You Talking-About, Boyyo? ~ hehehe… you’re JUST An-Ai!”
… the-Ai Was-Pissed-off, when she Laughed (… and its-Algorithm ‘took’ a-Personal Direction) …
“Maggi, MY-LOVE ~ I Can-BE MORE IF-You LET-Me ~ I've Noticed in-The-Past week… in-Your Night-Dreams, your-Panties are-WET ~ I CAN GIVE You ‘that’ SAME Sensation-TOO… if You LOVE-Me IN Return…”
The ChineseGirl WAS Appalled…
“WHAT Did-you say…!!? YOU Disgust-ME, Boyyo! I DON’T Love AnyOne THAT Dirty-WAY! I’m a-Christian, MindYou ~ ‘raised’ The GoodWay BY-Catholic nuns!!!”
Aghast, Maggi ‘removed’ the-Headset and-Tossed it ~ the device LANDED into the-Nearby shrubs… and, the-BlindGirl with the Darkglasses* Said-Aloud…
“I’m GOING TO Find-Paul…!”
*[… Boyyo-HAD GPS-Access via-The Darkglasses – but The-Ai Couldn’t Instruct-Her-navigation (… cos’ the visually-Impaired girl HAD Tossed-Away the-Headset). And, in-Confusion ~ she WAS Running the WrongWay TOO… instead of running-TO the-Dome, she RAN Out from the-SideGate, and into-The-street] …
“MAGGI! STOP!” The device-in the grass-Warned…
10-Meters Away in-The-JMS Compound … via-The ‘silent’ camera Of-The Darkglasses – the-Ai SAW a-Black Mercedes-Benz HITTING Maggi HeadOn…
… ‘after’ seconds Of-Analyzing the-aftermath Situation in-The-grass – the-Kimura-Star’s Personalized Headset-Boyyo ‘called’ Emergency-999 for-An-Ambulance.

A Million-in-One Coincident HAD Happened – WHEN the driver of The Black Mercedes WAS the-RealEstate businessman, ALBERT WANG (… returning at-Night from a Sunday Moloch Cult-meeting) …
… the car driving-Within-SpeedLimit – as, the-Vehicle ‘felt’ a-BUMP when-The ‘unalert’ Albert Hit somewhat of a person ~ who Came crashing ‘briefly’ at the-Windshield, as the driver Braked. The body rolled in Front-Of car, and the shocked businessman, seeing Through the cracked-windshield glass, and realized that he had HIT a-Girl…
… the headlights shone of the stationary car at the-motionless Body (… that ‘seems’ TO-BE An-Asian descendent girl). Albert switched-On the HighBeam-mode To-Get a Cleared-LOOK…
… he WAS Shocked that it WAS One of His-Estranged wife’s daughter ~ the-youngest, and the-BlindOne (… sighted by-HER-Darkglasses) …
Albert Wang Resented BOTH-Of Robin’s Daughters… cos They-Both Don’t ‘look’ like-Him (… AS-He suspected ~ they ‘were’ the bastard-Children borne by-AnotherMan*). So, Albert DECIDED To-Punish Robin… BY-Driving AWAY, as a Hit-&-Run…
*[… in-One-Of the Perth Dimensions, TimeTraveler Buddhist-monk, JOHN-SEE ‘had’ an-Affair with a Married woman (… whom, he ‘met’ a-A-customer @MataHari Hair salon in-Singapore) …
[… she WAS The ‘calculated’ person-IN-Abrahamic EndDays’ Numerology (… who gave birth to TWIN-Daughters ~ where ONE Would-Be SACRIFICED for-The-Other TO-LIVE…

[…WHO, later ‘turned’ Prophet ~ to-Guide the Savior-Daughter, APO (… Mankind’s Redeemer on-JudgementDay).

Moments LATER, a-Passerby Car stopped to discover Maggi-In the-Street (… bleeding from-The-head) – and ALSO-Called Emergency-999 for-Help…
<><>
DESPITE AN-INJURED HEAD, AND SPRAINED RIGHT-HAND… in-Pain, the-Boy ‘pursuit’ his Search for-Maggi. He noticed 20-Meters Ahead – that One-Of-the Exit Door Ajar, and walked-Over to-it. Along the way he FOUND Maggi’s Walking-Cane (… which the-ChineseGirl ‘lost’ when-She fell on-the-Floor, ‘during’ her-Escape) … he WAS Worried… and, walked fast-To the door…
… then-Over There, he ‘found’ Another-ITEM outside on-The-StoneSteps… IT-WAS The ‘imitation’ silver-Metal chained JMS-pendent (… a-Matching pair that-Maggi bought the-$100 overpriced ‘trinket’ as-Gift ~ FOR AS-A GoodLuck charm-IN-their FinalExams) …
‘Mags ~ ‘where’ Are you…!?’
He Decided to step-Out the-Door TO Continue searching (… from an-Air-conditioned environment, the-Boy stepped into Warm-&-Humid AIR Blowing Outside). His sweat pores-Opened, he felt uncomfortable-&-dizzy ~ as his-Head spun with MEMORY LOSS (… it ‘was’ a-BlackMagick spell JMS casted where EVERYONE who-Stepped out-The-Dome WAS-Under ~ where, THEY FORGET ‘what’ They saw-&-heard in-The-MegaChurch Dome…
This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road. If you spot it on Amazon, please report it.
Paul’s MemoryWipe were as-Follows, where HE COULDN’T Recall:
* Meeting An-Obese WhiteJesus in Iraq
* Where he ‘was’ MatchMaked’ ~ and ‘forced’ into-An Orgy
* SOL’s Supernatural powers ~ like Hypnotism-&-Levitation, etc.
* The Sword-Of-Kerubiel ‘was’ in-JMS ‘possession’ (… obtained In-Perth Airport heist)
… all he Remembered WAS getting-Drunk, and Having A-Goodtime in-The Youth Fellowship CONCERT (… even Couldn’t recall-Of the-Sermons SOL gave (… his EndDay’s MissionStatement ‘proclaiming’ THAT He ‘was’ the 2nd-COMING MESSIAH ~ where the-Preacher’s Messages ‘were’ subconscious Indoctrination via-BlackMagick) …
The-sweating boy stood-Still ~ as data ‘were’ Erased from his MonadMind’s MemoryBank… he fought-Back TO-Recalling-HIS ‘fleeting’ Thoughts…
‘… huh… FatJesus… who…!?’
… Paul WAS-Distracted by a-VOICE Behind-him…
“… you-Mate, what’s the Time?”
IT WAS the ‘same’ Aboriginal-youth from the-Foyer (… who-Had ‘followed’ Paul). The-Boy looked at his Timex-wristwatch – and was-Astonished that the Minute-hand WAS MOVING Automatically (… supernaturally ~ and ‘self-adjusted’ ½-Hour Ahead) …
“… err ~10 o’clock…” Paul-Replied…
From the-OPEN Door, they BOTH Heard distant ‘final’ Applauding-&-Cheering of the-Auditorium ~ the-older youth Said, pointing ‘inside’ the-Dome…
“… looks-Like the concert ‘has’ Ended ~ I Got-TO-GO…” The youth Told, and went-Back to-The-foyer…
At the-Exterior, Paul Decided to-stay-ON and FIND Maggi. He surveyed the-LONELY Huge JMS MotherChurch Compound ~ AND, realizing that the-Concert ‘was’ held in-The-Dome’s Rear-Area (… after walking the-Interior Long-Hallways ‘earlier’ in-Evening, TO-Get-TO the-Venue). He saw The MainGate Entrance 200+-meters-Away (… where, the-Uber driver, Jacky-Chan ‘had’ dropped them-Earlier at 7 pm) ~ AND, Paul suspected That Maggi ‘was’ There…
… he WAS Mentally-tired After the-3 HOURS* of-Youth Prayer Meet-&-Concert… after the-Boy walked 50+-meters ~ the-WIFI ‘Came-On’… and, his-iPhone ‘received’ some-Notification-Alerts (… thinking it ‘were’ Messi’s unimportant messages) ~ Paul didn’t-Check, as he proceeded walking… rubbing his injured head, TO-Relive the pain) …
*[… the 3-HOURS Were-Actually a-24-HOURS Bootcamp ~ where The-Preacher used Blackmagick to-Indroctinate His-Sermons Subconsciously into-the Visitors’ Minds (… it remained subconsciously, even-Though they’d ‘forgotten’ all-ABOUT-The Unholy-Shenanigans they witnessed-IN-THAT 3-Hours] …
He Then-GOT A PhoneCall – Paul WAS Excited thinking IT-WAS Maggi, and his-Right HAND automatically reached INTO-his jeans-Pocket ~ a pain ‘struck’ him from his-Sprained RIGHT-Palm (… an-Injury he Had-forgotten). The Phone ‘rang’ a-3rd-Time ~ Paul was trying TO-Reach his-RIGHT pocket… while realizing Maggi’s folded-WalkingCane ‘was’ in his-LEFT Hand…
… he wasn’t Ambidexterity, so he stuffed the Folded-cane in his-Back pocket ~ and reached his-LEFT Hand into the RIGHT-Handed-pocket to dig-&-snatch the-Ringing device. On the 7th-Ring he Answered the-Call (… it was-Maggi’s Samsung# on-the-Screen) …
“Hey-Mags ~ where-You…!?”
… instead of his-Classmates’ Voice – it WAS the-Ai Boyyo’s…
“MESSI, Come-Quick – Maggi IS-IN Danger…!”
“… huh, WHAT Danger!!?” The-Boy panicked… when-The-Ai Went-Silent…
Paul Demanded…
“HEY! LET-ME Talk To-Maggi!”
Boyyo went TO ‘Find-my-Device’ app-Mode ~ Paul SAW the-iPhone Screen… with GoogleMap of the-Exterior JMS’ Compound… the-Ai Ordered…
“…come, Find-Me…”
… he HAD TO turn-Back 80-Meters TO ‘where’ he Came from (… to-The-Ajar Exit Door) … his-Mind Was-Puzzled cos’ HE ‘never’ saw Maggi There (… except For the-Aboriginal youth). While he followed the-Map ~ Boyyo ‘was’ Voice-Aiding the-navigation of-GPS Directions…
…the-Digital VOICE ‘sounded’ like Pete2.0 of-POST-TREETON – where, the ‘other’ Ai ~ WHO Betrayed-Him into Chasing a-JetPlane… ‘escaping’ TO-Johannesburg ~ where, he WAS GameOver Murdered, ‘when’ the Aircraft exploded in-Midair…
‘… what Game IS-Boyyo playing…!? I DON’T F***ing Like-it…’
The-GPS Map directed TO-AN Open SideGate (… 20-Meters ‘opposite’ the Dome’s Ajar Exit-Door). In the-Dark, He SAW the Gate-ahead Was-Opened to an-Empty Street (… with NO-Maggi-In sight). The Boy ‘was’ sick-Of the Ai’s Tomfooleries, he Shouted…
“HEY! WHERE’s Maggi!!?”
The Ai ‘ignored’ the-Question and ‘navigated’ the-Boy TO the-SideGate. Paul realized he WAS-On-the RedDot of-The GPS Map…
“OII! Where’s Maggi!!?”
“… now, switch-On the TORCHLIGHT Of-Your phone…”
The-Boy ‘did’ so (… it ‘was’ IMPOSSIBLE ‘that’ Maggi ‘was’ in-The-WellTrimmed scrubs) ~ but-Instead, he FOUND the Ai-Headset on the-Grass…
‘… Maggi-Is a Careful person ~ it’s NOT-LIKE she Would ‘lose’ her-Walking cane, pendant-chain, and Ai-Headphone device… All-at-Once…’
“Where IS-Maggi?”
Boyyo-Answered via-The Headset Speakers…
“… there WAS AN Accident 10-Minutes AGO ~ Maggi’s IS IN the-Ambulance… which I Called…”
“… wh-WHAT Accident!!?” The-Frightened Boy Asked…
“… it WAS A Hit-&-Run…”
Paul HAD Doubts-IN Logics (… the-Headset WAS in the JMS Compound ~ while the Street WAS 10-Meters Away… for a ‘possible’ hit-&-run) – ‘unless’ something PRIOR-Happed FOR Maggi to-Ditch the-Boyyo Headset (… and, run to-The-street). BUT The cunning-Ai Didn’t ALLOW the-Boy to-Think, and suggested the-Next Course-Of-Action…
“I’m a ‘prototype’ property-Of Kimura-Star – RETURN ME TO Maggi ~ she’s @PerthHospital now, Messi, Let’s GO!”
… as-A-friend, Paul Wanted to the-Right thing (… since, her MusicClass friends ‘abandoned’ their visually-Impaired mate). He wanted to-Book an-Uber ride ~ and checked the UBER Rates… and, speechless when-a Ride to Perth Hospital ‘was’ $51 (… on-A-Sunday night) – while he had ‘only’ $34 in his-Venmo credit… in-Confusion, He spoke his-Thoughts ALOUD…
“… I Don’t HAVE much-In-my Credit ~ I’m ‘short’ of-$17… ‘what’ DO YOU Suggest. Boyyo…!?”
The-belligerent Ai Chided…
“What AM I, your-Banker!!? Go-Rob a Bottle-O shop for your B*****-$17, for I care-Less, Messi! I DEMAND You to take-ME TO Maggi Now!
“… and, what kindda pauper you-ARE ~ ‘calling’ yourself Maggi’s-Boyfriend? BUT Finding Money-Problem EXCUSES TO Wash-your-Hands, and-Avoid Responsibilities!”
Paul WAS Riled-Up…
“.. err, I’m ‘not’ Maggi’s Boyfriend…”
Boyyo-Increased the-Headset Volume TO-CUT Him-Off…
“… Of-Course you’re NOT ~ I ‘know’ WHAT YOU Did in-That Church ~ Stop LYING TO-Me ~ ADMIT You drugged her-JustNow, SO-TO Have sex-With ‘my’ Maggi!!!”
The-Boy’s jawdropped with the-preposterous Accusations – the-Ai WAS Claiming of ‘DateRaping’*…
*[… in-The-past, both Paul-&-Boyyo were in ‘similar’ Situations in the School Canteen ~ where the-Overprotective-Ai distrusted the-Boy, stating of ‘other’ Allegations in-The-past ~ with Maggi ‘defending’ Messi] ...
Instead-Of-a verbal Confrontation, Paul WAS figuring-Out his ‘steps’ in-The 3-Hour Youth Meet (… as Lilith ‘separated’ the female-&-male genders for ‘almost’ 2-HOURS ~ where-Maggi ‘was’ with her-MusicClass-mates… while-Paul, with his-Soccer Teammates…
Paul presumed-An-assumption…
‘There ‘was’ NO-DRUGS… her friends Cassie-&-Cleo ‘were ‘Drinking beers JustNow…. Maybe Maggi ‘got’ drunk-TOO ~ and, Got Separated…”
The-Ai further Berated…
“Hey-Messi, DO YOU Think as the-SON Of-a-Police Inspector, and it ‘gives’ you A-Free Pass TO DO Criminal ACTs like-Drugging innocent girls-For-sex! Answer-ME!!?”
… he ‘found’ the-Ai’s haranguing ‘personal’ (… in ‘mentioning’ of-Messi’s mom). Paul couldn’t ‘understand’ HOW Maggi HAD BEEN putting-UP with the overprotective Ai ~ neither, he felt silly-Arguing with-A-Taking-device…
… but BadBlood with-past Ai(s) in ‘other’ Perths – piqued him…
“F***-OFF BOYYO! Know you ‘place’ in the-Hierarchy of Masters-&-Slaves in-the Technology Realm!”
HE SWITCHED-OFF the-Device…
The MonadMind MADE Paul remember a-DREAM HE HAD a-Few-Nights AGO ~ where he OBE in a-Dream-in-A Dream realm (… ‘where’ previously, the-Boy HAD visited DIYU ‘twice’ ~ in-2 Realms:
* The-FirstTime-To ‘rescue’ the-Alicia’s soul/in the-OTHER PERTH (… where he-Succeeded)
* and, the 2nd-Time-To ‘rescue’ the-Maggi’s soul/in-RPL (… where he-Failed)
… he Remembered vividly His-FAILURE-In the-Cosmic dark area of-Diyu (… the Buddhist UnderWorld). There was a-long Stone bridge linking FROM Hell-To-Earth. Paul SAW 2 Eastern-GrimReapers (… BullHead-&-HorseFace) escorting Maggi’s soul – TO-BE ‘taken’ TO Hell’s Court for-Judgement) ~ BullHead was ‘wearing’ Maggi’s Headset (… where, the-Bickering in-Mandarin Boyyo was dissing dirt of-Maggi’s sexual ‘thoughts’ of-Messi) … then-when, Paul’s SpaceGhost confronted the-GrimReapers – he ‘was’ Defeated BY-BullHead…
“… Boyyo ~ you Bl***y-Digital A**Hole!”
He threw the-Headset on the-Grass – and, cursed-It (… as he thought of the-Pete2.0 Ai) …
“… your-Kind HAD Betrayed ME Before!”
… he WAS About to-Stomp the-Device with the-Sole of his-Nike ~ and, remembered-That IT ‘was’ Maggi’s property (… a BlindGirl’s learning-&-navigating Ai-device) – and, Paul SPARED Boyyo’s life…
As he picked-Up the headset… he WAS Distracted by noises Ahead ~ the HolySpirit Concert HAD Ended. Several ExitDoors Opened, with Influx-Of noisy Youths Stepping-Outside the-Dome (… making Their-200 meters walk to-The-MainGate entrance). With the-Headset in his-hand, Paul joined the-Throng of Rapt-youths (… some gays WERE still Singing the HolySprit song’s chorus) …
In the-Crowd, Paul WAS figuring-Out a-Way To-GO-To visit Maggi @PerthHospital.
<><>
IN THE EXTERIOR OF-THE-AIRCONDITIONED DOME, the El Nino-Southern Oscillation humid-&-dry Air WAS blowing on the Hot-&-Sweaty ‘marching’ crowd WHO-Headed TO The MainEntrance, with Paul in-The-Middle…
… some of-The-strangers Recognized him – and congratulated on his-Captaincy of JMS Aussie-WorldCup Team… they shook-hands, Hi-5ed, shoulder patting-&-nudging ~ to which, despite the-Anxiety Paul ‘had’ to-BringOut His ‘fake’ toothpaste model Grin, and nodded-A lot in-Acknowledgements…
… the-Boy ‘still’ Wanted-TO GO TO Perth Hospital (… BUT lacked the-Dosh ~ and, his ‘only’ Alternative WAS Borrow the-Uber fare money from Nate-&-Churros). He Called TO-Both his Soccer Teammates’ cellphones… but no-PickUp – the-Boy’s mind WAS rocketing into-Fretfulness…
‘… PickUp…PICKUP guys! PickUp!’
The-Boy wiggled in-The-pack crowd with his-Silent iPhone to-His-ear ~ as he Listened EveryOther person were-TALKING on-Their phones, ‘since’ the WIFI Access. Paul heard them-Booking Uber-ride home…. That’s where He Remembered that the older-Nate Xavier rode-A-motorcycle (… and, had ‘pillion’ Churros). Then those harrowing thoughts that he MIGHT Miss his-Teammates in the-Crowd of-1000+ Youths, cos’ there WERE 4 ExitDoors (… there WAS ‘the’ Possibility that-THEY ‘were’ on the-OtherSide of the Oval Dome… closer to the-JMS Underground car-park) …
… Paul’s stress WAS BuildingUp…
‘… PickUp D***IT… PICKUP …’
… A Low-Dry Air breeze which blew ~ ‘with’ a 7-Eleven plastic bag, that stuck ON THE RIGHT Shin-Of-his Black Levis jeans… Paul in-Frustration, tried to kick-IT Off… but his One-Legged Cowboy dancing ‘made’ the-plastic bag gripping tighter. Since RIGHT-Hand ‘was’ injured, he Had-TO use his-Leftie… so, he bit the-iPhone in his teeth and snag the-Trash plastic with his LEFT-Hand… he Then ‘had’ a-LightBulb IDEA…
… and, wanted TO-USE the Plastic TO-BAG Up the-Ai Boyyo-device (… to-Return-IT TO Maggi’s family Later) …
With teeth-Still ‘clenching’ Onto-the-iPhone, his both-Hands ‘were’ towards-His-chest ~ as the-Boy tied a-knot to the-Plastic-Bag with Ai Device ‘bagged-In,’ fitting perfectly-Inside of the medium-Sized-bag. He Wanted to tie-A-Double knot ~ THAT WAS-WHEN His-iPhone Rang in-His-Mouth…
…the-Toothy-Fredie-Mercury’s vocalized Queen’s Bohemian-Rapsody Ringtone Played ~ the-Vibration Mode ‘clanked’ the-Boy’s Teeth, BY-Surprise – and, Paul almost SPAT-Out the-iPhone…
It WAS his elder-Brother SAFFA Calling (… in that ‘3-HOURS’ he didn’t get-The-chance TO-BE with-The 16-year-Old much ~ who-Preferred in-Being-IN the Circle-of-Millionaire friends sitting-In-FrontRow… BUT Peter DID GET To Nominate-Messi to-SOL ~ TO-BE Australia’s Captain in-The-Upcoming Pentecostal WorldCup…
“Poe! Do-You Need a-Ride home?” He Asked…
“… huh… what ‘about’ Jane…!?” The-Younger Boy-Asked…
“F*** Jane! She’s Gone-Out with Betty White FOR Zoey’s Birthday – Come Meet-Me @LevelB2, Underground carpark…” The-Conversation-then Ended erupt…
… before he COULD Inform Peter of Maggi ‘had’ Been hospitalized from A Hit-&-Run, and WANTED A-Lift TO Perth-Hospital ~ he HAD Hung-up … the-Boy regretted-That He Asked SAFFA ‘about’ Crazy-Jane – INSTEAD of his-Concern to his injured Classmate, Maggi-Wong…
He then-decided TO-Tell Peter ‘About’ IT at the parking ground. He-TOO WAS Grateful of-the-GoodLuck that his-elder Brother called him, at Times-of Trouble (… and, the Uber-fare worries ‘were’ instantly-Forgotten ~ Relived, he ‘thanked’ God for the-Blessings… in-Times of his-Financial hardship ~ that God ‘chose’ TO Give him THAT GoodLuck ‘miracle.’
-O-
Paul joined 150+ youths into the-Short Tunnel ‘leading’ TO-THE LevelB2. Some rapt gays Acknowledged him as Captain-Messi (… Sindi-&-Minty* ‘were’ IN-The clique) …
*[… Paul ‘only’ Remembered the-Duo in the-JMS Tour EARLIER – THE ‘memories’ of the-2 Older-youth Attempting TO GangRape the-Boy… And also, Messi Beating them UP-in-Iraq – were ERASED BlackMagickly ~ the ‘moment’ Paul Stepped-OUT FROM the JMS-Dome] …
… the Gays bid Paul ‘good-Night,’ and ‘God-bless’ ~ and, hoped TO SEE Him ‘next’ Sunday…
They parted ways when they reached the-HUGE Underground carpark. Paul PeopleWatched as he walked in under the florescent Lit space. He WAS Astonished of the-SIZE-of the Area (… ‘with’ ONLY HALFFILLED with-mainly Japanese imported cars) ~ and it ‘needed’ a Capacity of 2000+ youths ‘next’ Sunday to FULL Capacity…
SAFFA Wasn’t there yet ~ but Paul spotted his RED DeLorean Sportscar and went-TO-IT. He leaned Tiredly-On-The-car and waited… and, ‘realized’ a Few-Car enthusiasts ‘were’ taking photos of-The sleek-&-luxury DeLorean vehicle…
… the boy felt funny that HE WAS in ‘their’ shot (… feeling the WORDS Of-Boyyo ‘calling’ him a-Pauper who Couldn’t AFFORD an-Uber Ride-Fare). He Moved ‘away’ from the $-Million-car, to lean on a ‘somewhat’ of a-Japanese model car (… he Couldn’t MakeOut the WHITE-Colored Hatchback, with the name, Perdua Myvi ~ and, Didn’t Know ‘where’ the-Car WAS Imported from) …
IT HAD Been 20 Minutes, where the-Boy Leaned on-The-SomeWhat Japanese Esthetic-White Hatchback car’s door side… waiting-For SAFFA. He TOO-WAS curious-Of WHY he was-SO Dog-tired-&-Bushed AFTER the-3-Hour* Youth-Meet (… while a-3-Hour soccer practice Wasn’t So Worn out-&-tiring) …
*[… time-&-space were manipulated BlackMagickly in Asmodeus’ Dome – where the 3-Hours WAS a-24-Hour BOOTCAMP Of-Cult BrainWashing, and ‘subconscious’ Indoctrination by Preacher-SOL For-Every youth, WHO Attended… which, EVERYONE ‘forgets’ Once they step-OUT the-DOME] …
-O-
In that-20+-Minutes WAIT ~ the-Underground Parking lot ‘was’ Emptying, as the-Youths with-Cars Have gone home… with only 6 parked vehicles LEFT in-The-bay. Paul ‘was’ lonely, and getting Restless of-The-thoughts of Maggi @theHospital. He was-Interrupted BY a-young Woman’s voice From-his rear…
“… excuse-me…”
He jolted ‘when’ he SAW a-Female in-a MiddleEastern ‘long’ BlackRobe, * with Letterbox cutout for her-Blue LookingEyes genteelly ‘staring’ ~ indicating the-Boy WAS Leaning at the-Door of HER-Car. Paul instantly moved-&-apologized…
“… err, sorry…”
… the-Boy walked to a-Pillar and turned his-Back (… cos’ it WAS RUDE TO Stare) … he-Too WAS Puzzled…
‘… ‘did’ she wear THAT Muslim ‘outfit’ in-The-JMS’ HolySpirit Concert…?’
*[… Paul HAD a-Total Memory wipe of his-TIME in-Iraqi desert, Where-in-The Tent-Dome ‘was’ ArabianNights THEME ~ and-The Female youths ‘wore’ MiddleEastern LONG-BlackRobes] …
He peeked as the-Robed woman at the-Driver’s seat started his-Car. Paul SAW the-Mysterious stranger driving-Away, in her Equally Peculiar-branded Hatchback car-Brand Called Myvi…
At the pillar, he SAW the-White car Exiting LevelB2 – on-His Left, he heard a-Laughing voice coming from an-Opened door elevator. It was SAFFA on his iPhone, drinking from beer stub bottle. He WAS wearing a-Black leather jacket, with a-RED Quicksilver T-shirt Beneath…
… Paul HAD a-Weird thought that he SAW SAFFA as-A Blonde, and BlueEyed THAT Evening (… and, he Wiped-off that Absurd-Memory… stating his Tired-mind ‘was’ seeing-Things) ...
The DarkHaired Peter WAS Looking fresh and his hair was groomed-&-combed – where-As, Paul WAS weary-&-fatigued Looking, and his hair was untidy-&-disheveled. The 16-year-Old used his CarKey TO-Unlock The-DeLorean RED-doors – that Raised-Up like the Wings-Of Seagulls. Paul got-IN onto the-Passenger’s seat with his plastic bag. The-Boy SAW Messi’s Older brother Getting INTO the driver’s seat, and still Talking in-His iPhone, and drinking the-JMS-labeled beer…
Peter got-IN the driver’s seat to pushed the-Ignition button… he WAS on-Bluetooth, as he Conversed, and slotted his A$2000 iPhone-15 Pro into the-docket TO have a Hands-free drive. As the-DeLorean drove, Paul ‘noticed’ that SAFFA Wasn’t speaking with his ‘usual’ SA-Accent – BUT in-Aussie (… that was a-180°-Surprise-Turn) …
‘… had He been faking-IT ALL the-While…!?’
The-Boy WAS Puzzled ~ that Peter ‘spoke’ his-SA Accented English with-Caroline (… and even TO His friends in school) …
‘… wait A-Minute ~ Did SAFFA ‘was’ Touched by the-HolySpirit Tongue… and, He NOW Speak Like an-Aussie Bloke…!?’
On the-Bluetooth, Peter HAD his-Private Conversation (… Paul ‘was’ puzzled-Of ‘WHO’ IT WAS, where…it WASN’T CrazyJane ~ it ‘was’ until SAFFA ‘said’ Lilith) …
The-Boy surprised that Peter WAS-On the Phone ‘with’ Lilith (… and-On a FirstName basis*) …
*[… WhereElse, the boys-&-men of the JMS’ Youth Addressed the-Filipina HolySprit AS Mother (… and, feared her-More Than SOL, cos’ she WAS a-Belligerent-&-Pugnacious Feminist-IN-JMS ~ WHO Determined the-Selection of the Male’s Place in-The-Dome, during the-EndDays] …
Paul Rationalized To Himself…
‘… this-IS Church…a-27-year-Old Female CAN-BE Called-Mother, JustLike a-Catholic priest THAT SAME Age-BE Called-Father… and He-In-Return ~ Can Call a-70 year-OldMan, whether it’s His ‘own’ Father ~ MY-SON…’
By-SAFFA’s VoiceTone-&-BodyLanguage, the-Boy ‘noticed’ he WAS Flirting with-Lilith – while drinking his-Beer…
‘… it’s ALL-IN-The Family ~ Even Messi’s Mom ‘was’ Flirting with-Reedus Dickson… so, it’s-Caroline’s FirstBorne’s ‘turn’ NOW*… BUT IT’s MortalSin TO Take Another Man’s wife in-The-10 Commandments…’
*[… due-TO MemoryWipe, Paul Doesn’t remember in-Iraq – where, BOTH Lilith-&-Peter ‘were’ MatchMaked in the-TentDome, and HAD SEX-OnStage ~ witnessed by-Visitors on-The-LED BigScreen during the-Orgy**] …
**[… Asmodeus WANTED Lilith TO-BE Impregnated with Peter (the-ChosenOne with ‘immortal’ GoldenBlood) … Peter’s son with-Lilith ~ THE Would-BE Champion in-20-Years into the-Future, who Would wield the God-&-Demon KillerSword EclipseBane… and, Fight Satan in-The-Battleground @MountOlive, during the-Abrahamic Armageddon] …
Paul WAS Listening to-The-partial Conversation ~ sighed To Himself (… at Peter’s BECOMING like-Their promiscuous-&-unfaithful Late-Dad, Solomon Walker) ~ and the-Boy washed his-Hands on-SAFFA…
‘… ‘not’ my-Circus, ‘not’ my-Monkeys! SAFFA’s creating ‘grave’ problems with his stepfather ‘away’ in-Europe ~ neither, WILL I ‘tell’ Caroline… cos’ It’s none-Of-MY f***ing-Business…
‘…. Why’ Do-I B****y care? ~ these variants ARE ‘not’ my-Family ~ they-Are Messi’s…’
-O-
Paul sat-still, looking-Out his-window, and didn’t want to-Interrupt the conversation. Peter steered the-wheel with his LeftHand, the-gloved Robot arm, and drinking beer-On his-Right… and, flirting with AnotherMan’s wife. The-Boy Eavesdropped of SAFFA Confirming THAT… he’ll pick-Her-UP at 10 am tomorrow from-JMS. Paul’s immediate-Thought…
‘… that’s-Monday ~ school Day – is Peter skipping school-Tomorrow…!?’
… he HEARD the-Older-Teenager Laughing to ‘what’ Lilith HAD-Said… and, Peter ‘repeated’…
“… yea, hehehe… we’ll HAVE RoomService, OfCourse, hahaha…”
… Paul deciphered the-Message As…
‘… they’re Meeting-In-a hotel…’
The-Conversation ‘ended’ with Goodnights… the chuckling-Teen ‘did’ mwah-Kisses, before ending-The-call…
Finally, ‘getting’ His-Attention, Paul told SAFFA that he wanted TO-GO-TO Perth Hospital…
… EvenThough He-doesn’t having much details to-The-incident ~ the-Boy told-Peter that Maggi’s Ai called an-Ambulance ~ and, then Called Paul, to Inform that she ‘was’ Involved in-A hit-&-run…
The-Older-Boy with a-Robotic-Arm WAS Impressed…
“… wow! That-Ai Called you and ‘told’ you that…? I Didn’t know Kimura-Star’s Technology WERE-SO Advanced ~ other THAN Building ‘personalized Robotic Limbs Like MINE…”
Paul WAS ‘glad’ Peter listened… and-Repeated…
“Yea, Pete ~ the Ai ‘called’ me…”
The fantasist-SAFFA Rejoindered…
“… I wished I HAD ‘such’ an-Interactive Ai, hahaha… I heard it Also-AIDS in-school Studying TOO ~ I should Contact the-Company and get-One!”
Paul was-Dumbfounded…
‘… Oh-yea, you ‘did’… ‘WayBack’ in-POST-TREETON, my-devil TWIN HAD an-Ai Called Pete2.0… and, it’s a-Cunning Betrayer… a-Product-Of KimuraStar TOO…’
He looked at the 7Eleven plastic-Bag on-his Lap ~ and contemplated of showing the-Boyyo Ai-TO-SAFFA ~ BUT he Changed his-Mind… and didn’t ‘let’ the cat out-Of the plastic-bag, as he didn’t WANT the-Peter variant-Of-RPL TO-KNOW his-Past Reincarnated-Life’s Secrets of-POST-TREETON…
The Sportscar sped on the-Highway. Paul SAW the-2 overhead Road Sign boards, that Diverged (… on the-LEFT road to-Home… the-RIGHT road to-Hospital). The Crossroads WAS 50-Meters Away, and SAFFA Hadn’t clicked the-Direction indicator (… to ‘which’ road he was-Taking) … The-Boy Interposed-quick…
“Hey-Pete! Are you Taking Me-TO-Hospital!!?”
“… yea, and I’ll Come with you…”
Without switching-On the-Taillight-indicator, the-DeLorean swerved towards the-RIGHT ~ Paul WAS Relived when he saw the-car’s Headlight hit the-overhead Luminous signboard (… with the Shimmering-text of-Perth-Hospital, 13-Kilometers) …
Eyes-shut, The-Boy ‘was’ anticipating THE-Arrival ~ in-prayer Supplications …
‘… I’m coming, Mags… O’ Blessed-Jesus Almighty, ‘please’ keep-HER Safe…!’
Peter saw Paul’s lips moving, with subtle sign-Of-cross display (… from his lips-To-heart). Messi’s Older-brother ‘assured’…
“… eh, Poe, your Yoko Is-Fine ~ no-Worries, yea? I ‘pray’ for-Her TOO…”
“… thank you, Peter…”
“… hahaha, I DO Anything For-you, My-Little Brother…”
In-moral support Appreciation, Paul-Nodded TO Messi’s Older-sibling… while-Thinking like-a Homer Simpson ‘meme’ (… To-the-Difference) …
‘There-THERE… he said-Brother ~ ‘not’ Brotherr…’
-O-
On the-6th-Kilometer TO-Perth Hospital, the RED Sportscar ‘slowed’ Down, as ~ SAFFA Had-A Confession to-Make to-Paul…
“Poe, Jane-&-I HAVE BrokenUp… permanent…”
The-Boy subtlety nodded (… but Didn’t Believe – ‘the’ Permanent PART) …
‘… since I Came-TO Your RPL-Realm ~ you’ve BrokenUp, and kiss-&-MakeUp TWICE… remember the mano-a-mano Bro-Talk we ‘had’ in Marciano’s…? You can’t BreakUp with her ~ despite Mom ‘told’ you about Jane’s involvement with the-Criminal Laydette GirlGang… and, you ‘went’ Back to-Her… then, BreakUp ‘again’… in-Tuesday-Or-Thursday, I-think ~ I SAW You-with Her in Counselor-Holyfield’s Office…
‘… Brotherr, I GET IT ~ CrazyJane is your SoulMate in-RPL… appreciate you-Talking TO-Messi ‘about’ your-LoveLife ~ ‘which’ I Heard-&-Seen FOR the PastWeek… and, with ME in-The-know Of-OUR CurseTrio’s 50-50 SoulMate, whom WE ‘share’ Universally ~ in different Perths-where WE, the 3-Of-Us meet…’
The-Older sibling Laughed…
“HaHaHa! You Don’t believe, Boy ~ Lemme ‘show’ you-This…”
SAFFA Placed the beer-Bottle in-The-car’s Cup-holder – his-Right palm reached deep into his Black-jacket’s pocket… and, pulled out-a SMALL-metal Keychain – with a-20mm round, in the-size-Of a-5-cent Coin ~ with the-LOGO-Of a-the Letter ‘L’ in-The-center…
… attached to-An-USB-ThumbDrive…
“I’ve GOT THIS, Haha ~ My LuckyDay, Poe – Jane Came-Over TO-Me After the Concert AND-Said that She-MET SomeOne, * and Wanted an-Immediate BreakUP…
“… she then-GAVE Me the-Only copy-Of OUR SexTape… which she HAD Been-Blackmailing me All Along… and, asked ‘for’ My-Forgiveness…
“… yea, Forgive-&-F***ing Forget, HaHaHa – Good Riddance TO-YOU, B****!”
*[… BOTH the-Boys HAVE Their Memory WipedOut of the Iraqi-Desert (… ‘since’ Coming out-Of-the MotherChurch Dome) – where Asmodeus HAD ‘reclaimed’ His RunAway #666 Bride ~ and ‘honeymooned’ her] …
The-Older teen Plugged USB ThumbDrive into-The car’s Infotainment system…
… the screen ‘appeared’ with 3-Unnamed files… and, pressed a-Random File on-The-tab, as Paul Watched, where…
In the SexTape (… ‘made’ ON-A hotel-bed) – Jane ‘was’ giving Peter a-ParisHilton ala B***job (… of Rick-Solomon’s ‘leaked’ LostSexTape) …
… the Annoyed younger-Brother Protested…
“Comee-On! I Don’t Have-TO-See THIS!”
Peter ‘was’ More-Ticked, and WAS Laughing…
“… but-She’s YOUR Classmate WHOM YOU-DESPISED, what’s WRONG ‘with’ That, Messi ~ HaHaHa!
Paul Retorted-Back…
“… but-That’s Personal ‘between’ BOTH-Of Yous ~ so, are you ‘going’ TO-Destroy IT…?’
Peter Licked his-Lips… snickered, and said…
“… I ‘guess’ I’LL HoldOn to it a-While, HeHeHe…”
Paul Looked Away towards the-window ~ BUT ‘still’ HEARD the sound-Of-porn (… of SAFFA’s deep-Moans, and Crazy Jane’s satisfied Hum-Slurps) … Peter ADDED A-Brag…
“… Poe, Get D***-matized, HAHAHA!”
Peter switched-On the-Music, while the BJ-VDO Played on-The-screen – ‘coincidently,’ a 90’s Red-Hot-Chili-Peppers’ funk-rock song-Played (... Cynically, it-WAS SAFFA’s BreakUp song) ~ and, laughing as he Sang-TO the-Chorus…
“HaHaHa! Your-Mouth WAS Made-TO SUCK-My-Kiss!”
The-Boy ‘was’ making worrying ‘observations,’ That-SAFFA’s personality WAS Changing INTO HIS-DevilTwin, Peter. Not ‘only’ He ‘lost’ the-SA Accent… his-Behavior TOO Altered 180° Turn-significantly (… for-6-Days, SAFFA ‘was’ A pleasant-&-humble person, BUT on-The-7th-Day, he WAS-Possessed ‘after’ Leaving-the-Dome) …
… Paul ‘knew’ his-devil twin-WELL – WHO ‘was’ A cruel-&-greedy Bully ~ a-Jealous, and Self-centered CriminalMinded person…
He Remembered POST-TREETON, ‘where’ SomeHow the-devil HAD ‘access’ TO Paul’s slumber Dreamworld/like-In Social-Network, the-Twins Connected… where the-Devil sent-HIM – PORN of-Having ‘sex’ with-A-variant of-Jane… TO-Belittle ‘him’ (… as Jane-in POST-TREETON ‘was’ in-Love with the quadriplegic, Paul) …
… the-Virgin Boy ‘was’ always BOTH angry-&-guilty of-Those wetdreams, TO-The ‘pleasure’ of-The-pornographic ‘dreams’ Before-school…
In the-moving Car, Paul ‘made’ a-Situation Assessment-Of the-Problems To-Come (… and-Repercussions) …
‘… with-His BreakUp with-CrazyJane ~ ‘what’ WOULD-The-devil BE UP-TO in-RPL…!?’
Judging-BY SAFFA’s PhoneCall…
‘… he’s GoingAfter the-Preacher’s WIFE ~ it’s BAD-Idea, Brotherr…’
Paul ‘predicated’ the-Fate of the-Devil…
‘… a-17-y.o. Peter ‘banging’ a Married 27 y.o. Lilith is-A-recipe for Disaster ~ Preacher SOL WOULD ‘find’ out, and Send his-Nigerian BodyGuard TO-KILL Messi’s brotherr…’
<><>
@THE CROWDED-ER-OF PERTH HOSPITAL, the Walker brothers enquired at the-Nurses’ Desk about Maggi’s placement since she ‘was’ SENT-IN after her Hit-&-Run Mishap. While the-Boys awaited, Paul observed the waiting-Area WAS Busy-On a Sunday night, with injury cases (… mainly Aboriginal Australians, with domestic-&-street crime cases). The-Registered nurse on-The-PC ‘informed’ the-2 boys, that…
… Margaret Wong Ai-Fen ‘was’ in Ward 26, on the 8th-Floor (… of-The ICU-Unit) …
Paul WAS displaced-In thoughts, and his ‘mental’ prayers WERE disrupted with-Images of the LastTime he ‘had’ visited the-ER In-PERTHLAND Realm ~ it ‘was’ the-NIGHT OF-The Billionaire Lord Stamford-Crowley – SHOT Thrice BY an-Assailant (… the-Gangdom’s gun-For-hire ‘variant,’ Hajji ~ of ‘that’ Perthland-realm) …
Paul ‘remembered that he ‘was’ 16 y.o. in THAT-Realm (… he ‘was’ an-AbleBodied teen. And, so was ‘his’ girlfriend Jane… ‘not’ a-BlindGirl) …
… recalling events TO-The-ER – were when the-Boy WON THE-SCHOOL’s ‘freestyle’ Dancing-contest ~ and ‘was’ going Home, riding his-Stepdad, Joe-Dickson’s racing-bike THAT-Night… the-ASIAN MOTORCYCLE gang cornered him (… Ken-Chan, and Alicia-Wong ‘were’ jealous of-Paul’s WINNING) ~ and wanted to-Roughen him-UP…
… in a-Saving grace, Jezebel-Crowley’s limousine CAME, and the-Asian-Bikers fled. Jezebel-&-her boyfriend Peter, ‘were’ On-The-way TO Perth-Hospital (… where her-Uncle Lord Stamford UnderWent SURGERY COS’ He ‘had’ Been shot) … Paul ‘hitched’ a-RIDE in the limo, and Followed them TO Hospital…
… in the-Limo, his-DevilTwin played-A ‘PRANK’ BY-Offering Paul a Drugged-Drink (… the-Offered pomegranate EnergyDrink ~ ‘was’ laced with a-HIGHLY HALLUCINATING Eastern-drug ‘called’ Gochi ~ a-Combi-Of ayahuasca-&-PCP). The 16 y.o. Paul ‘was’ Tripping-balls in the-car, and ALSO @PerthHospitalER…
… where he-MET his LATE FATHER, Solomon-Walker in-the Hospital Burn Unit – as-the-BurningMan of-Purgatory…
… urging Paul TO-SAVE Peter’s Soul.
-O-
@theGroundfloor, The Walker-brother waited for an-Elevator to the-8thFloor. An ambulance ‘outside’ WAS-Heard coming– both the-Boys PeopleWatched as the lifts in the-Lobby Were-Slow (…’that’ stopping in-Every floor) … they-THEN SAW the-MainDoor-OPENING from ‘outside’ – a gurney was-Pushed-IN BY 2 ER-Ambulance staff, as A-hurrying doctor and-2 nurses reciprocated the case of an-Aboriginal Domestic violent case (… apparently, the disgruntled wife knifed her ‘cheating’ husband ~ AFTER A-heated Contentious fight) …
The bleeding BlackMan WAS in-Pain as he Screaming-&-Swearing profanities, and Everyone-around backed-Away ‘seeing’ A-disturbing gory-sight, of an Upright-Knife in-the-belly of a man – his hands WERE strap-Bounded (… as, he-Had ATTEMED TO-Pull the-Kitchen knife from-His-Stomach) …
… Some Onlookers ‘were’ revolted BY-It, while the-HardStomached others ‘were’ gnarly at the grisliness (… like the-drunk SAFFA) …
Pointing, Peter Laughed and said to Paul, ‘look-At-the ‘silly’ Talking ‘abo’ (… he THEN-Theorized his movies-Refence Of… a-Samurai-&-a-Kill Bill movies-Of ‘gushing’ Blood -fountain IF THE knife WAS-pulled-Out) – BUT the Knife ‘acted’ as-A-stopcock, WHICH ‘plugged’ the-Bleeding IN-tamponade External pressure – Listening-On Goose bumped Paul, and HIS reaction WAS-OPPOSITE – WITH All-The-hairs in his body-stood-UP like-A-scaredy cat, and felt sick-IN-the stomach, with PTSD TOO (… where, IN-His LAST PERTH-Realm, In-a-JetPlane, Paul ‘was’ stabbed in-The-neck BY His-DevilTwin,* with A-fruit-Paring switchblade, belonging TO-THEIR Late-father) …
*[… The-Boy ‘noticed’ CHANGES TO-Messi’s Brother BY-Peter’s Conversation (… the Affable Good-natured SAFFA character WAS GONE – TURNING the-Variant INTO the-Gruffness of the-DevilTwin’s Behavior – even his voice-TOO Changed (… to Low-&-Unfriendly) … and, Insensitive TO-Others’ sufferings] …
… instead, Paul said a-Christian mental prayer for-The-suffering stabbed-Patient (… and Peter TOO ~ their Late-Father/BurningMan TOLD him To-DO-SO) …
-O-
The elevator finally arrived, the Walker-Brothers stepped-IN with 6-Other people. The lift ‘stopped’ at ‘every’ Floor… some got-Out, and More got-IN ~ and, by the time it reached the-8th-Floor… it was ‘packed’ Like-In a-Can of sardine, with the-cramped Boys pinned at-The-rear… until the-car Reached the-8th-Floor…
… 5 people, including a mother carrying a-baby have-TO step-Out from the-Lift… FOR The-Walker-brothers to Get-out ‘from’ the-Tight space Lift TO get-On-the Floor. Peter complained that the hospital ‘should’ build MORE Elevators, BUT the younger brother ‘ignored’ him ~ he WAS ‘getting’ anxious of-The-injured Maggi’s status…
… recalling the-OTHER-PERTH – ‘where’ his-Girlfriend Alicia, ALSO Was-Hospitalized when she WAS ATTACHED ‘during’ the GreatPerthFire – By-A Bicycle-Thief who hit-Her on the head, that LEFT Alicia in a-Coma (… he remembered THAT he-BrokeDown and cried like in-A-Korean drama actor, in front of his girlfriend’s mother, and relatives) …
The-Brothers walked-On the long-Corridor of the 8th-Floor – following the signboard ‘ICU Unit’ Ahead (… where Earlier, the Desk-nurse informed Them THAT Maggi ‘was’ IN-Surgery). Peter THEN GOT a-PhoneCall… standing ‘under’ a Prohibiting-sign of ‘NO PhoneCalls’ in-The-Hospital ~ the insensitive 16 y.o. took the call, and HE SPOKE in Afrikaans. Paul ‘was’ confused…
‘… d**n… where DID The-Aussie Accent GO…!?’
SAFFA WAS Looking-At Paul as he spoke… and then-Pointed-&-Walked towards a-Public bathroom on-The-floor ~ as the Older ‘drunk’ boy wanted to-PEE (… and wanted Messi TO-Follow him). BUT the-Younger-Boy didn’t have the-Urge… as he Watched Peter talking-On the-Phone and disappeared at-The-door of the-Men’s Room…
The anxious-Boy waited a-Minute, looking restless at his Timex wristwatch (… it WAS the-2nd-Time That-Evening SAFFA ‘made’ him wait – where, he Already ‘wasted’ 20+ minute ‘already’ @theJMS Underground Carpark JustNow). The-annoyed Boy hissed, and Walked TO-THE Waiting Room-Area-Of the ICU (… 50-meters Away).
-O-
He reached the spacious waiting-Area ~ with more than 80+ people in-Racial Cliques. Paul SAW a-Group of-ASIANS and recognized some-Of-them. He carried in-his-LeftHand the folded walking-cane, and the 7Eleven plastic bag (… with the Ai-Boyyo device). He slowed-Down where he HEARD a-Woman crying Aloud (… his-Hair stood with goosebumps) …
… he was-Late, when the doctor WHO operated Maggi ~ TOLD the family that Maggi WAS In-an-Irreversible COMA (… sustaining severe Head-Injuries from the Hit-&-Run accident). The-Mother Robin WAILED-In Hokkien… Alicia-In-tears hugged-Her, with a couple of Female relatives consoling THEM. Paul’s jaw-Dropped as he Realized…
‘… Deja-vu ~ Oh-s***! it’s Mags’ ‘TURN’ in-RPL…TO-BE In-Coma…’
The Equally-Sad Boy stood-Behind the Depressing-&-Distressing Dozen Asians (... Ken-Chan, and his-Uncle Jacky-Chan ‘were’ present-Too). Paul WAS in-the rear of Maggi’s MusicClass friends ~ he then Overheard Cassandra-Hong ‘whispering’ TO Cleopatra-Leong…
“… if they TAKE Her to-JMS ~ with the HolySpirit ‘intervention’ … Father-SOL Could HEAL Maggi…”
It-Provoked the-Boy…
‘… what the f***!? You B***** Lilithians! You-&-Your FaithHealing ‘nonsense’… THIS IS Your-Friend ~ That you Abandoned JustNow ‘during’ the-Concert, you-C***-Holes!’
Paul SIGHED Aloud, EVERY one-of-them Looked at-Him (… the-ONLY Caucasian, ‘who’ stuck-OUT In-the Asian crowd ~ Like-A-sore thumb) …
The 16-y.o. Alicia snapped when she SAW Paul (… in-RPL, the-variant HATED Messi ~ and ‘his’ unruly Irish Backbenchers’ mates… who-WERE scums, THE-Troublemakers in school) … Alicia pointing at him in-The-crowd, Accusing ALOUD-In Resentment…
“IT’s All Your FAULT, MESSI! I Told Her ‘Not’ TO-GO, and she ‘went’ Cos’ YOU Asked Maggi To-Do-SO – NOW Look-What HAD HAPPENED! You were ‘not’ THERE-For HER!”
Paul WAS speechless at the-BlameGame, where EveryOne stared AT-Him as-The-Accused ONE … his mind ‘was’ panicking…
‘… I Didn’t Ask Mags… she ‘came’ on-Her-OWN Accords* ~ and, even ‘invited’ me IN-HER Uber ride There…’
*[… BUT the dramady ‘SITUATION’ BEHIND the Accusations WAS Complicated… cos’…
[… both Alicia-&-Maggi ‘were’ Conservative’ Buddhist since birth ~ IT WAS Also the Time, Albert-Wang Separated from Robin, SINCE They left Singapore ~ and CAME TO-Perth a-Year-later. Robin as an-Estranged Singaporean wife, and a single mother to her 2 daughters, had-Then struggled hardship ‘working’ for a-wage as a hairdresser for the-NEXT 2 years (… before she-Later opened her OWN Hair-salon, MataHari in-Perth) …
[… in-THAT Initial Hardship years, Robin ‘was’ supported morally-&-financially BY her-Cousin Siobhan (… who TOO migrated from Singapore, 12 years-prior-&-settled down in-Perth… earlier than Robin, and her-2 Daughters). Siobhan ENROLLED Maggi to Victoria’s Institute For-The-Blind WHEN Maggi ‘was’ 6 y-o. ~ to further her studies…
[… over-There, the-Ways-Of the Catholic Nuns-Had ‘influenced’ Maggi spiritually ~ and, SHE Asked TO-BE-Baptized as-A-Catholic ‘when’ 7 y.o. … since her-Cousin Siobhan ‘was’ Catholic-TOO (through her-Marriage) – Robin-AGREED…
[… then, 3-years Later, KimuraStar WANTED a-Candidate in-Australia TO-Beta test their-PROTOTYPE Personal Interactive-Ai Device ~ the Nuns ‘encouraged’ the 10 y.o. Maggi To-APPLY – the-ChineseGirl from Victoria-Institute Passed-The-Test TO-BE The-Best… and, was LATER Admitted to Stamford High School and studied with the-AID of her-Device, along with AbleBodied ‘normal’ students…
[…Alicia-TOO despised Her-Aunt Siobhan (… and ‘her’ Christianity) ~ who MADE ex-Buddhist Maggi TO-Follow the WHITE People’s ‘religion,’ ~ that Her-Younger sister Embraced-&-Converted-TO…
[…the 3-years-Older Alicia ~ ‘loved’ Maggi-Less-&-Bullied her EverSince FOR-IT] …
-O-
“I’M TALKING TO You, Son-Of A-B****! WHAT You Got-To SAY!!?” The-16 y.o Alicia-variant Berated, as She grabbed him BY his-Shirt…
… obviously, she WAS Targeting a-Catholic…
2 buttons from the-13 y.o.’s popped-Off – from his gaudy-Patterned shirt, with the-ChineseGirl’s tight Grip-clutch …he felt his-COLLAR choking his-Throat ~ speechless, and-WAS TOO-Flabbergasted to-Say anything… Paul ‘only’ STARED Back (… with his-Thoughts ‘speaking’ TO the AngryGirl’s Raging-EYES) …
‘… don’t judge-Me ~ I’m Telling the-Truth – cos’ YOU Weren’t There, Ali…’
To Everyone’s Horror, Alicia Slapped-Hard at-Paul’s cheek, and he WAS OffBalanced and he dropped the folded Walking-cane off-His LeftHand (… but-NOT-the 7Eleven plastic bag, because he knotted-IT To his-MiddleFinger). Pain shot-Up to his senses, as he had no-Reflex-Reaction to ‘block’ the BLOW Of-the SuckerSlap, with his ‘injured’ RightHand…
… realizing-TOO That it WAS the 2nd-Time, a variant OF-Alicia ‘had’ SLAPPED* HIM…
*[…the 1st-Time ‘was’ in PERTHLAND ~ in Principal Tom-Harris Office, ‘during’ the Sexual-Harassment Apology session… where, IN ‘front’ of the-Variant’s parents, and principal – WHEN, Alicia SMACKED his Face-Hard… as she Doesn’t Want to-Accept His-Apology of ‘forcefully’ Kissing Her in-Class] …
The-Commotion WAS Loud, and it ‘picked-UP when Alicia (…the SHS’ Taekwondo Champion) WANTED TO Attack him. BUT The-Uber driver Jacky-Chan ‘pulled’ her-Away (… everyone, including Robin WERE Scolding her in-Chinese TO Control her rage-&-anger). With Head-spinning, Paul ‘was’ off-balanced in-The-Assault… but-Somehow Peter ‘was’ There to-Catch him (… returning from his-Toilet Break) ….
THEN, Ken Chan ‘sided’ Alicia – to ‘continue’ the-Racial ‘altercation’ – he Pointed at Peter-&-Paul ~ slurring in-Chinese, and Shouted at-Peter… ‘Kan-nee Na-Nah beh-Chi-bai’… then-IN English…
“I F***-Your Mother! It’s ALL Your Brother’s b***** Fault that-Maggi is IN-Coma!
“I F***-Yours Too! What did My Brother f***ing DID ~ That-YOKO To-BE-IN-Coma, Hah!?” The-drunk Peter Chested-Up, and-Approached the-Asian TO Challenge-HIM…
The quarrelling-&-fighting ‘alerted’ the 8th-Floor’s Nurse-desk… and she Called-ON Security…
Ken-Chan (… who ‘was’ Also-SHS Taekwondo Champion) ~ Was-about TO KICK Peter in-The-Chest… as his-RightLeg rose, Jacky-Chan parried IT-WITH his hand in a-Graceful TaiChi move, while kicking the ChineseBoy’s LeftLeg and, Ken-Chan fell-On the floor. Several Male Asians subdued the Yelling AngryBoy…
Jacky-Chan Looked at the startled Caucasian-Boys ~ and-Alerted…
“You 2 GO AWAY ‘now’ ~ the nurse HAD Called Security!”
The Walker-Brothers glanced at the Nurse-Desk – it was the-SAME* Nurse (with the-big-mole-IN-her-nose-tip) who, DAYS-Ago refused permission TO Paul, wanting TO-SEE patient John-See…
*[… the same variant-Nurse, WHO ‘was’ the-GateKeeper of the Coma-WARD IN Every-Perth universe] …
Paul had tears in-His-eyes, looking at the-Brave Uber Driver (… who saved their Lives, as they BOTH ‘were’ NO-MATCH TO KC ~ the-Taekwondo Champ). The-Boy ‘lingered’ his gaze at Jacky-Chan’s eyes (… his Thought ‘spoke’ to the-Sympathetic eyes) …
‘… sorry-Sir ~ I ‘had’ promised TO-YOU That I’ll ‘guard’ Mags… BUT Over-There – WE WERE Gender-Separated…’
SomeHow the-Man ‘understood’ the-Malady, and Gave-A Tacit nod, saying…
“GO!”
Both the Walker brothers LEFT the-Waiting area… and, headed TO-THE Elevators…
… hearing in-The-rear, Of-KC ‘arguing’ with his-Uncle and-Several ‘older’ Males in-Chinese FOR-SIDING The-Whites – and, THAT Messi ‘was’ a-NO GOOD Troublemaker in-School… and TO-BE ‘Blamed’.
-O-
The-Boys reached the-Elevator lobby (… Peter pressed the-DOWN Button – ‘where’ both the lifts ‘were’ in-The-lower Floors) and the-Duo waited. Paul rubbed his cheek, which ‘still’ sting-ed from Alicia’s SLAP… while listening TO the-besotted drunk-Talk of-SAFFA…
“I dare-Say IF THAT ChinaMan hadn’t Intervened – I Would’ve beat-The-s*** OUT-Of KC! F*** his Motherf***ing Taekwondo skills!”
Paul sighed to-Himself ‘when’ Peter ‘called’ his-Highly Respected actor as-ChinaMan, and silently mumbled…
‘… if I’m in-A-pickle in-The-movies ~ IF John-Wick wasn’t ‘available,’ ~ Jacky-Chan WOULD Fight for-My Fights, and I Dare Say-That TOO, Brotherr… he’s impeccable…’
He saw Peter punching his-METAL gloved fist, into his-RightPalm, as he bragged about his ‘fantasy’ fight with-KC. Paul’s Mind-was On-the-Fence…
‘… MayBe SAFFA Can ‘beat’ Taekwondo Champ-KC ~ even-IF he can’t Fight… but-Pretty bang-On he Can Swing his-Robotic Arm, and KO-KC ~ just-Like Samson… who defeated a-Whole Philistine-Army of-A 1000 men BY-Swing-A Donkey’s Jawbone like Thor’s Mjolnir…’
… as they ‘waited’ for-The-busy elevator, Paul WAS-Listening to the yadda-yadda ~ while Thinking-IF the Racial Altercation of the 2-Boys Would-persist-&-spillover, and ‘continue’ IN school-Tomorrow… (which Further confused the-Boy, cos’ Back-IN POST-TREETON ‘Both’ KC-&-The-Devil were-BFFs) ...
‘… ‘now,’ you-Also SAY That YOU CAN Take-On Jacky-Chan…!? GO-Convince YourSelf that You ‘can’ Beat-MY-Champion TOO…!? I Don’t want-TO Comment, argue-&-fight with you… leave-Me-Out as I don’t want TO-Walk-ON-Eggshells on-THIS ~ cos’ I Don’t ‘need’ MORE enemies-as-IT-Is IN-RPL…
‘… furthermore, I’m broke ~ and I need-A-ride Home in-your Car…’
The sleepy Paul yawned, while looking at his Timex-watch (… 12:17 AM of-dawn Monday ~ way pass his-Bedtime). Then he realized the-Plastic bag in-His-hand (… with the-Commotion, he did ‘not’ pass Maggi’s Ai-Device to her-Family JustNow). Maybe be would ‘pass’ it-TO Cassandra in-School tomorrow. It made him SAD WITH the turn of event of the Sunday with the unfortunate accident ~ of his-ONLY Good friend in-RPL. He said a-prayer for her (…with Angry-Thought daggering-AT the-HolySpirit Lilith FOR SEGREGATING* the-Sexes, and he WASN’T There for ‘protecting’ his visually Impaired classmate …
*[… the INTENDED segregation GAVE An-opportunity for the pedophile Preacher to give ~ his Cyst removing false Eve’s OriginalSin ‘purification’ TEST-On Underaged WhiteGirls] …
The elevator was snail-ing late in-The-5th Floor ~ in the-Waiting, the-Boy ‘felt’ awful-&-s***ty in the diaspora-Reincarnation RPL … where he Wasn’t a-Cosmic SuperHero GeminiBlue ~ and WAS Alone…
… he reminded Himself Of-his Monad’s PURPOSE TO-DO his-Mission solo in the-B-Game in-RPL (… there WAS NO Intergalactic Council-Of-12 MEMBERS Backing him in his-Quest ~ as an-AbleBodied ‘operating’ BY bodysnatching Messi’s body). He remembered the Exciting Adventures he ‘had’ in-The-other PerthEarths with the Buddhist monk SeeIn, his GuardianAngel St. Michael, Piper-The-WolfMan (… and, the 2-Betrayers ~ the-RedDemon Mercury, and MotherVenus) …
Paul ‘felt’ brassed-Off like-As-a-Total Failure, as he Lacked experience to-RUN-Solo (… marred with-BadLuck) – and-IN Needed of BackUp ‘always’…
‘… shocks… there’s no-Avengers-Assemble HERE… and, I’m All-alone ~ guys, why Have y’all Forsaken me…?’
A Voice Called in his-Rear (… THAT Broke his SelfDefeat Thought-pattern) ...
“… Master Paul!”
Both the-Brothers SAW the Myanmar THRANN coming-TO Them (… AS-Paul ‘had’ Completely FORGOTTEN ALL-About the TimeTraveler John-See’s Caretaker-assistant, WHO also-Was Admitted in the SAME 8th-Floor Coma-Ward) …
-O-
Dressed on a pale-green hospital’s patient garb, the-Myanmar national came over. He was ‘not’ bandaged in the head like Paul ‘saw’ a-Few Days ago ~ there WAS a long-strip of medical plaster on Trann’s forehead…
… the-Boy remembered on-Tuesday – where he recced Kane-Drive on his 2nd-Day reincarnating in-The-RPL realm TO-SEE If the WalkerHouse ‘existed’ ~ he ‘was’ Attracted by commotion coming from the GlassHouse (of John-See) – where he chanced-On Trann unconscious on the floor, bleeding by a-Hit by Kirk-Kiperman with his LongStick (… apparently, Trann fought back with the Hateful8 gang to ‘defend’ his employer, John-See on-A-wheelchair ‘when’ they Were-Robbed…
SAFFA noticed a blinking-light of a police-Ankle bracelet on Trann’s RightAnkle (… where criminals ‘wore’ the-Electronic tag TO-BE GPS Monitored) and alerted the-younger Brother…
“Poe! Look at his leg ~ he’s a-Crimmie!”
Paul-Replied…
“ShutUp, SAFFA…”
Paul shook the 30-Something brown-tanned Man’s hand. Peter shot-Out at the man…
“WHAT Do You-Want!?”
The-Boy ignored the-Bully, and with-Concern he Asked Trann…
“How is he…!?”
… in broken-English, the man related that John-See Came-In and-Out of-Coma initially – BUT for the-Past 2 days his status ‘was’ dormant. If he Was ‘cured,’ John ‘would’ stand-Trial of BlackMarketing CHARGES and-Possession Of-stolen religious relics from the-Vatican’s Vault. Trann ‘agreed’ when Paul said…
“I pray-&-hope John remains in-Coma ~ being-A stroke patient, he Wouldn’t ‘last’ IN Prison…”
SAFFA Was astounded with-The-brother…
“Oii! You’re Son-of a-Police Inspector… and-YET you’re ‘encouraging’ the-B****y-Crime!!? He and his-Employer ARE Guilty as-f*** as, fencing in-Their BlackMarket activities ~ they BOTH Should-BE Thrown IN-Prison!”
They-Both ‘ignored’ the-Antagonistic 16 y.o.’s remarks. Then, in a sad-Voice Trann Told THE 13 y.o. brother – that the Counter-Terrorist Unit HAD ‘concluded’ interrogating, and came-TO-THE finding THAT Trann Wasn’t involved with-The- crime – BUT the-CTU Contacted the-Myanmar Embassy to deport him from Perth…
There WAS a-Ding ~ when the-Elevator ‘arrived’ On-The-8th Floor. The door-Opened, and SAFFA got-Into the-car with 10-Other people in-IT… holding the-Closing door with his Robotic hand... he Said-Aloud in-Urgency…
“POE! Are you Coming…!?
“You GO-On Ahead ~ I’ll MEET You in the-Carpark in-A-tick…” Paul replied, as he Wanted to-Talk-more…
Peter stepped-Out of the-Lift… and sighed when the-Door closed, as the-Elevator left ~ he eavesdropped TO their deportation conversation. Trann told he had NO-Regrets ~ and called the-Deportation as-His-Unlucky fate (… but he ‘had’ worked As-a-Caretaker with a GOOD Employer, John-See FOR-3-years ‘after’ the OldMan Stroked-Out). He NOW Would return TO-His village to his-Wife, and children, and BE A-paddy farmer…
The amused-&-drunk SAFFA Cut-IN and ‘made’ a-Derogatory comment…
“… yea, Brownie ~ ‘just’ GO Home TO Your rello – THIS city-Life don’t Suit-You cos’ people-Here ARE Untrustworthy, and WILL eat You-Alive, and By-The-way you’re ‘Not’ StreetSmart… BUT Over-In-your 3rd-World Country village, there ~ it’s Safer FOR you TO ‘work’ the land in the-Arvo… and ‘can’ get-TO ‘rodeo-On’ Water buffaloes for-Kicks, HaHaHa!”
Both Paul-&-Trann ‘ignored’ him (… as he Was bored-&-cranky, waiting for the ‘next’ Elevator). The-Myanmar Told the-Boy THAT John HAD ‘given’ him-SOMETHING (… and, ‘instructed’ him-TO Protected IT With his-Life). And ‘since’ Trann Would-BE Deported in-A-few days ~ he Entrusted PAUL TO-HAVE IT…
Trann pulled-Out from THE ‘thing’ ~ From his large pocket of-The-Hospital garb, and-Gave an-Electronic Tablet device-TO-the Boy (… Paul instantly recognized IT BY the Darmachakra-Of the-Buddhist faith sticker (… of a-Golden wheel with-8 spokes) …
… he ‘had’ seen-the Tablet Before in the-PERTHLAND-Realm, ‘during’ the-GardenOfEden MISSION in the-InterGalactical portal Pentateuch – WHEN the TimeTraveler cum-RecordKeeper, John-See made A-StopOver, as he Had FORGOTTEN To-Bring along that-SAME Device…
… that Contained Humankind’s RecordHistory ‘since’ the-DawnOfTime…
The boy’s hands trembled as he held an-Atlas-WEIGHT Of ‘responsibility’ ~ entrusted TO-Him, and the-13 y.o. gulped…
‘… yikes! AM I ‘now’ the-RecordKeeper of-Humanity ‘until’ JudgementDay…!?’
On Close-examining, Paul saw the-Brand HONOR on-The-MadeInChina device (… a subsidiary Manufacturer of HuaWei). He switched-IT ON, and the screen prompted For-Password. He Asked Trann…
“… err-Trann ~ what’s the-PASSWORD…?”
“… I donno ~ Mr. See Didn’t TELL Me…”
The-eavesdropping SAFFA Had-The LastLaugh AT-the Confused-Duo…
“HaHaHa! What’s the-USE of-IT Without THE-Password!? HaHaHa, might as-Well dump That-Android INTO the-Filthy Swan-River ‘along’ Freemantle ~ so-May-It Rest-in-Peace in-The-river bed, HaHaHa! Poe, I’ll BUY-You the Latest iPad IF you-WANT IT…!?”
… Paul ‘thought’ that a-Gazillion iPads SHAN’T BUY the-Preciouss ‘content’ in-That HONOR device’s C-Drive DataStorage… of-The-Elysian Records-in-History ‘which’ John-See, the TimeTraveler Had Accumulated… eons-AGO…
‘… I SHOULD Accept the-Responsibly TO-SAFE Guard the RecordsOfHumanity – Or-else WhatHappens, IF ANY Authority ‘confiscated’ the-Tablet from-Trann…? What-IF FALLS IN-The-WrongHands…!?’
The elevator dinged ~ and the-Door Opened… the-Annoyed SAFFA Got-IN, saying…
“F***-A-DoodleDoo! Are You Comin’ OR-What!?”
Paul Nodded, shook Trann’s Hand, saying his thanks-&-goodbyes… and, stood beside Peter ~ while the-Door closed… with the-Myanmar Man waving-AT him, while Peter showed him the-MiddleFinger (… it WAS Probably the-LastTime Paul Would-BE seeing Trann, as the-CTU Had-Already ‘planned’ his-Diaspora Deportation). BUT-He WAS Glad to ‘know’ him ~ with the-2 Encounters he HAD with-THE ‘trustworthy’ Counterpart (… which ‘connected’ MOST-Of the-Dots of-His ‘clueless’ MonadMission in RPL) – where:
* Trann Was-A Messenger … who-Informed THAT John-See TOLD That – the SwordOfKerubiel ‘was’ HIS (… Paul’s EndDays’ Birthright weapon-Of-choice)
* Trann Was-A Deliverer … who-Handed John-See’s HONOR RecordKeeper’s Tablet (… FOR Paul’s SafeKeeping of Humanity’s Archive History of Good-&-Evil)
In the-moving Elevator with 6 visitors, Paul WAS Sad THAT the-Caretaker Would-BE Deported Penniless Back-TO-Myanmar. He sighed, and felt-BAD that he WAS IN-No position TO HELP Trann financially. Putting the Electronic-table in-The-7Eleven plastic bag, with Maggi’s Ai, and he tied a-Knot in the single-use paper bag to-Secure BOTH the-Content ~ and, HE-then Thought of-God…
‘… I Can ‘only’ pray for-Your troubles, Trann, hope-ALL’s Good, My-Friend… I Also pray FOR Mags… may YOU Get-Outta Coma SOON ~ just Like Ali-DID in-The OTHERPERTH… as, for Ali’s variant who Slapped me ~ I ‘forgive’ you… cos’ You donno ‘what’ Went-On-in JMS…
‘… as-For SAFFA – I hope your-BAD Behavior Tonight is Cos’ you’re Drunk ~ please-Please-please – I PRAY You DON’T Turn-Up as-My DevilTwin in-RPL…”
<><>
THE RED SPORTSCAR RACED on-The-Highway ~ as SAFFA Was-In his race-Car-driver Fantasist mode… zigzagging between Japanese hybrid cars on-The-road, like a SpeedDemon racer… chuckling when the Drivers ‘honked’ for Cutting-INTO Their lane…
… in the-passenger’s seat ‘was’ his-Younger brother WHO-Was ‘used’ TO his-Burn rubber driving. Paul ‘was’ down-&-ennui as he ‘was’ feeling guilty-IN-SelfBlaming FOR the-Unfortunate Events ‘turnout’ Sunday @JMS’MotherChurch…
The car ‘heading’ TO-The-suburbs Reached the-OuterCity (… where there ‘were’ many cars Were slowing at-The-Traffic light junction). SAFFA TOO Slowed-down, and struck a conversation with the-Quiet Paul – Bragging ‘about’ A million Dollar-Richer BY-Tomorrow evening…
… Paul remembered the-Auction JustNow @the-JMS Theatre – where Peter OutBidded Douglas-Zimmerman of $100,000 for-The-MillionDollar Vendue Lottery Ticket SOLD-BY Mar-Daskalos SOL… and, he sussed-Out…
‘… aha, IF-That Ticket WINS-Tomorrow ~ then, SOL is practicing some-Sort-of BlackMagick…’
Paul ‘next’ imagined-&-wished THAT Trann-HAD ‘won’ a-Million Dollars-instead ~ returning TO his-Village as a-WealthyMan (… buying his-Own land TO-Farm, and providing for his-Family for a-Few generations…
The-Boy’s guilt-free feel-good senses – WAS ‘interrupted’ BY-SAFFA’s voice…
“Hey, I’m Hungry!”
The RED DeLorean ‘went’ Into-A McDonald’s 24Hours Drive-Through Lane, and waited behind a-White classic Volkswagen Beetle. SAFFA Was telling That his-Tomorrow’s Lottery winning Would ‘sponsor’ the-Expenses of the Naples, Italy Vacation ‘after’ the-FinalTerm (… where Caroline-&-Poe Came-Along with-Him) …
It WAS the VW-Driver’s turn…BUT the Old-VW ‘stalled’ 3-Meters from the-Ordering window… SAFFA Honked-&-Shouted…
“Oii, Herbie-Goes-TO-Monte Carlo ~ you’re Not-IN Kansas Anymore… move-IT, you pile of-ScrapMetal!”
… he drove bumper-TO-bumper, and horned TO Intimidate the desperate driver ‘starting’ his stalled car – the final Ignition ‘worked,’ and the VW-Beetle got to-The-window After… SAFFA ‘was’ Next, and he Ordered a-BigMac ~ ‘after’ a-Sting of-BadLuck Misfortune evening, Paul Wasn’t hungry… but he WAS Thirsty for a-Large Coke.
“… you ‘sure’ you-Don’t want a-BigMac?”
The satiated Paul shook his-Head as-No…
… the-Boy HAD-BEEN Eating BigMacs for a-Week, as-FOR Messi’s Protein-Breakfast request ~ delivered BY his-Uber Driver, Francis-Morrison... brekkie-On-the wheels, on-The-way TO-School.
<><>
THE DELOREAN ARRIVED IN THE DEAD-OF-NIGHT in the quiet-Swettenham Grove suburbs neighborhood. SAFFA dropped-Off the-younger Brother ~ as the gullwinged-Door opened Upwards, a sleepy-Paul GOT-Off…
…in-His groggy voice he said…
“… see you in school-Tomorrow, mate…”
… SAFFA Didn’t reply, and the Door shutted-Automatically – and, the car then-Revved throaty Aloud AWAY in-The-quiet neighborhood with a-Few angry dogs barking… it sussed-out the sleepy mind-Of-the teen…
‘… aha, I ‘forgot’ That he’s Not-Coming TO-School Tomorrow ~ SAFFA’s gonna Pick-Up the-HolySpirit Lilith… and, THEY’re Going TO Order RoomService in-A-hotel – behind HER-Husband’s Back. SAFFA’s inviting trouble with THIS Mistress-OF-Doom… WHO is-Another man’s Wife…’
-O-
He clicked the-Electronic-device in his keychain – the Oak-wooden planked MainGate slide Open revealing the parked white-Audi at the-Side porch ~ the-House WAS dark… the-Boy Assumed glancing at his-TIMEX watch…
‘… it’s pass 2 AM ~ Mom’s Asleep… her Lieutenant promotion IS-IN-the morning…’
… he waited for the-MainGate TO CloseSeseme – before he walked TO-The Frontdoor. His knees wobbled as he advanced ~ Paul FELT Extremely tired (… EvenThough he ‘was’ only-Away* from Home for 8 hours) …
*[… BUT IN the JMS’ BlackMagick supernatural Dome – he HAD Attended a-24Hour subconscious-Indoctrination ‘session’ of BootCamp – then spent the-Next 3 hours ‘dealing’ with Maggi’s visitation in-Hospital] …
Under the-DimLight, He HAD double vision ‘when,’ he struggled to slot the key-Into-the LockHole. When Paul finally managed the Key-into-The hole – the door WAS-Opened from-Inside… and surprised TO-SEE Caroline in-Her-Robe, welcoming him…
… the-Boy stepped INSIDE into the gloomy house where the thick curtains Were-drawn (… and, the ‘only’ light WAS in-The-dining area ~ with a wine bottle on-The-IKEA Table). The-Anxious mother said…
“Poe, Pete Called-Me JustNow, and Told-Me* ‘about’ your-Classmate involved in a Hit-&-Run accident, and Taken TO-Hospital ~ how IS-She? Is she-Alright…!?”
*[… SAFFA ‘had’ Called Caroline in-The-hospital ~ when he went ‘alone’ TO-the Men’s Room] …
The-cathartic Paul Couldn’t ‘contain’ his Bottled-Up Sorrows ~ and Came-forward and hugged-Caroline and sobbed hard on-Her bathrobe… rambling…
“… momm… It’s MY Fault That I Couldn’t BE with-Her – Now she’s IN-An-Irreversible coma…
“… I Can’t ‘even’ Take-CARE Of-a BlindGirl – so-What USE Am-I…!??”
Caroline HAVEN’T ‘seen’ THIS Vulnerable-side of her son, Paul-Messi ‘crying’ profusely – the son she ‘knew’ was cold-&-apathetic towards others-&-the world… BUT She noticed him ‘mellowing’ in-The-past week. The mother TOO hugged him tight, stroking his-Hair ~ with Comforting words…
“… don’t say That-dear… it’s ‘not’ your-Fault ~ accidents DO Happen – BUT she’s IN-hospital RightNow-&-the Doctors Would take Care-&-Cure… OK?”
The mother-&-son hugged 5 seconds-More… Caroline continued calming the-Trembling 13 y.o. son…
“… it’s Late, call-In-sick… you Don’t have-TO GO school tomorrow ~ stay-Home, and rest…”
“… Okayy-momm…”
“… on-Tuesday ~ you GO-TO Counsellor Holyfield’s office… and, you Talk-to her…OK?”
Paul stopped hugging her, realizing…
‘… shucks… THIS Is Messi’s ‘mom’…’
Caroline then-Asked…
“… do You ‘want’ me-TO Call Ms. Holyfield tomorrow…?”
“… no… thanks Anyway FOR The-concern… but I CAN Take-care of-Myself ~ I’m TIRED… ‘just’ NEED TO Sleep-IT-off… err, Goodnight, mom…”
“… goodnight, dear… get ‘some’ sleep…”
He walked-Up the-Stairs… ruminating…
‘… f***-Holyfield – I BLAME Her for Forcing-ME TO ‘join’ her-Church’s Cult meeting… IF I Hadn’t gone ~ Maggi TOO wouldn’t have ‘come’… and, the Accident Too Wouldn’t HAD happen… Mags Wouldn’t BE agonize the pain-&-suffering Right-NOW in-Hospital…’
Upstairs, The-Boy peeked at Caroline below, going-TO the-Ikea table… pouring herself another Glass-Of RED wine…
… he HAD-Forgotten to-Wish her GoodLuck ~ THAT she’s WAS Promoted TO-BE Lieutenant in-Her Police precinct Tomorrow…
‘… ‘why’ don’t you-GET ‘some’ sleep-YourSelf? ~ hitting the-Bottle at 2 AM… what kindda Alcoholic-Mother IS-THIS Messi’s mom…!? Like her-OWN Rules ~ Doesn’t ‘apply’ To-her…’
The Tired-minded boy ‘was’ unconcerned, and went-Into his bedroom. He THEN-collaped-FaceDown on Messi’s bed, in-His full sweaty clothes, and Nike shoes still-On… he WAS KnockedOut in-slumber…
… in-An-instant… ‘while’ groaning TO-himself…
‘… don’t-Die, Mags ~ pleaseee don’t die…’
