This is my most important fanfiction ever. You'll know why once you
figure out who the
characters are.
Chapter 1- The mission
"Let there be water on Mars!"
And indeed, now a river flowed in Mars.
"Prince Adonai, the King is calling you!" Lord Michael announced to
Prince Adonai.
"I love my dad! He's my best friend!" Prince Adonai ran towards the
palace.
"Daddy!"
"Adonai. I have news for you." King Adonai did not as happy as he usually
was.
"I can tell something is not right."
"Adonai, the kingdom is in peril. I am afraid the time has come for
you to go there."
"But if Prince Adonai goes to the kingdom, then..." Lord Raphael interrupted
"That can't be! Is there any other way?" Lady Gabrielle added.
"I am afraid there is none. I am sorry, Adonai."
"That's all right Daddy. I'll miss you, though. And I'll miss all my
friends here."
"Don't worry. Michael, Raphael, and Gabrielle will visit you often.
And you will be there
only for a while- and then..." The Royal Court could tell that King
Adonai was sad.
"I am not afraid. Farewell, Daddy. I love you!"
"I love you too, Adonai"
Lord Michael, Lord Raphael, and Lady Gabrielle watched as Prince Adonai
would now
go to where he had been assigned. And they also watched as King Adonai
cried. They
had never seen the King cry. And they knew why.
Chapter 2- A new world
Town of Arcadia,
Somewhere in the Midwestern USA
Youssef and Miriam Davidson had been trying for years to have a baby.
They had taken
care of Miriam's niece, Giovanna Battiste, when her parents, Isabelle
and Zachary, had
died in a car crash. Yet they still wished for a baby of their own.
Doctors had pretty much
given up, and so almost had Miriam and Youssef.
But one day...
"Congratulations Miriam. You are pregnant. I have no idea how this
happened, but it
looks like a miracle."
"Yay, I'm gunna have a little cousin!" Giovanna cheered.
"That's odd- I have not felt any morning sickness at all!" Miriam was
confused.
But not anywhere as confused as when the baby was born, after a very
uneventful and
easy pregnancy and totally painless childbirth.
"It's a boy! And he does not look anything like us or like anyone we
know!"
"Welcome, little Joshua Christopher".
Chapter 3- Friends and revelations
Joshua Christopher Davidson was a very sweet and intelligent boy. Everyone
said he was
the model child. A total pleasure for Miriam, Youssef, and Giovanna.
It was the first day of junior high for Joshua Christopher.
"You, yes you! Quit fighting!" a large boy with a beard was telling
two kids who were
fighting in the middle of the hall.
"Rocky, what were you doing in the fight?" a teacher said.
"I was not fighting! I was trying to break it up!" the boy said.
"It is true. He was not fighting." Joshua Christopher said. For some
reason, the teacher
believed him and left the big boy alone.
"Hey, I don't know who you are, but thanks man! I'm Rocky Simpson."
the big guy said.
"I'm Joshua Christopher Davidson. I am in the first class. Would you
like to be my
friend?"
"Of course! You're da bomb!"
A girl was in the corner. She seemed to be being harassed by a larger
guy.
"Leave that girl alone. And respect her from now on."
"Why? She's a slut!"
"Don't you dare judge her." The bully backed away.
"Wow, thank you. I'm Madeleine. That's my boyfriend- but I don't think
I want to date
him anymore."
"You deserve someone who treats you better."
"Thank you JC!"
"Hi!" Joshua Christopher said to a boy with glasses who was reading
a book and a small
girl with pigtails who was writing on her diary.
"Hi Joshua Christopher! We didn't think you would want to hang out
with us. You are so
popular, everybody likes you. So why do you want to hang out with us
nerds?" the boy
and girl asked.
"Lucas, Paula, you are my friends also. I can talk to you anytime."
There was a boy named Ian who was the youngest and smallest of the first
year class. He
got picked on constantly...until Joshua Christopher came in his defense.
Now everyone
respected him and treated him well.
Giovanna was walking past her younger cousin's room one day when she
overheard him
on the phone.
"Bye Daddy! I love you!" Joshua Christopher said in a cheerful voice.
"Bye daddy, I love you? Josh who in the world are you talking to? Youssef
is in the
backyard mowing the lawn, and you call him Youssef anyway. Is there
something I
should know?"
"Yes Giovanna, you definitely should know."
And Joshua Christopher took his true form- Prince Adonai.
"You are Prince Adonai!" Giovanna bowed down quickly.
"But I am still your cousin Joshua Christopher, and your friend. But
please don't tell
anyone."
"Of course not, Prince, I mean cousin."
"Master! We're here!" three beautiful human beings appeared before Joshua
Christopher
one day on his way back to school.
"What do you mean by Master? Come on, you are my friends. Michael,
Raphael,
Gabrielle, now you three give me a hug." Joshua Christopher said.
"But you are still the Prince." Lord Michael said.
"And I am still undercover! We cannot let everyone know why I am really
here yet."
"We all miss you a lot. Especially the King." Lady Gabrielle said.
"And I miss my Daddy too."
"Those must be his rich friends. Maybe he likes them better than us
freaks." Maddie said.
"Don't say that! Joshua Christopher is friendly to everyone!" Ian added.
"Yeah, and he's always hanging out with us." Lucas said.
"Why would he want to be our friend if he didn't like us?" Rocky asked.
"But those people are so beautiful. I wonder if Chris is hiding something."
Paula replied.
Chapter 4- Trouble...
It was Joshua Christopher's 13th birthday.
"Students we have a new boy in class today. His name is Jude Ishtar,
and he is in the
Third Class."
A very mean looking guy appeared on the stage. He had a scar on his
face and a tattoo of
a Swastika on his left bicep.
"That guy gives me the creeps!" Maddie whispered to Joshua Christopher.
But she did
not expect her friend to be as scared as she was.
"Are you ok, Josh?" Rocky asked.
"No I am not. That guy is trouble. Beware of him. Don't go anywhere
near him."
Paula touched Joshua's forehead. It was the first time any of them
had heard him say
anything remotely bad about anybody.
Giovanna noticed that her cousin was very silent and looked sad when
he arrived from
school.
"You all right JC?"
"I am fine. I just would like to be alone." Joshua Christopher said
as he entered his room.
Giovanna's intuition told her that something was wrong. But she could
not figure out
what. Yet she could overhear her cousin crying and saying "he has arrived"
to someone.
"Can't this wait until I am old?" Joshua Christopher asked through
the phone.
"You are the Divine Child. You will never grow old. And it has to happen
now"
Giovanna could not figure out what they were talking about. And she
did not know how
important it was or how sad it was making many people.
Chapter 5- Solving the Mystery
"Nobody messes with our friend Joshua Christopher" Rocky said.
"He's the most beloved student in school. There's no way we are going
to let anybody
make him sad." Paula added.
"We need more information on him in order to do anything. Let's get
his record" Lucas
suggested.
Rocky, Maddie, Lucas, Paula, and Ian entered the Dean's office after
the school had
closed.
"Jude Ishtar. 1313 SW Gotham Road. That address sounds familiar even
if I never go by
that part of town." Maddie said.
"Of course, that's the haunted house! Only someone as creepy as Jude
Ishtar would move
there." Ian said.
"Wow, big deal. So the house is rumored to being haunted. Maybe his
parents were
skeptical of that and bought it for a good price." Rocky said.
"Gee, I dunno. Doesn't say anything about parents here for some reason.
That guy may
be old enough to be living by himself."
"Check his old address."
"1231 Inverness Lane, Belleville"
"Belleville? We have to get there and investigate more. But how are
we going to get
there? It is two hours away by car, and none of us can drive yet."
Ian wondered.
"Have no fear, Rocky's here!" Helicopter blades could be heard outside.
Rocky's friends
did not know that he had a helicopter.
The bunch hopped on the chopper and flew towards Belleville.
"Maddie, Paula, try to find his old school records. Lucas, check the
town hall. And Ian
and I will try to find his old address."
"Hi, could you tell us where 1231 Inverness Lane is?"
"This is Inverness Lane, but there is no 1231. The houses on the odd
side go from 1229
which is next door, to 1233 which is this one."
"Are you sure there is nobody with that name who used to live in this
town? No relatives
or anything?" Lucas asked in the town hall.
"Nobody with the last name Ishtar used to live here."
"Still, he could have lived with a single mother with a different name."
Lucas thought.
"Do you recognize this person at all?" Lucas pulled out a picture of
Jude Ishtar.
"No. But I would not want to run into him!" the mayor said.
Maddie was going to use her womanly figure as an advantage now. She
disguised herself
as a representative from Arcadia Academy trying to hunt for info about
a student.
"Hello, I am Rose Schneider from Arcadia Academy. One of your students,
Jude Ishtar,
just transfered to our school. And since I was in the area, I would
like some information
about him so that we can work with him better."
"I am sorry Madame. Are you sure that you've got the correct Inverness?
Because we
have never had any students with that name. Ugly name, isn't it?"
"This is the only Inverness in this state. And his record did say that
he transfered from
this school- Montpellier Middle in Inverness."
"Sorry Madame, but there's nobody with that name."
Meanwhile, Paula searched the files and computers at the school. No
info on a Jude
Ishtar either.
The five friends decided to check the Inverness library for records,
just in case. No luck.
"This guy is even more mysterious than we thought."
"Why would he want to give false information if he's not running away
from the law?"
"There's something more important than the law at stake. And that is
our friend Joshua
Christopher."
"We will keep that bully away from him!"
But none of the five friends had the most remote idea of what was really
going on.
Chapter 6- Is this the end?
"Rocky, Maddie, Lucas, Paula, Ian, can we eat lunch inside the classroom
today?"
"Sure Josh!"
"I just don't want to be alone"
"No problem, buddy."
The five definitely noticed how somber their good friend was. And they
found it odd that
Joshua Christopher locked the door of the classroom.
But none of the five would have ever suspected the horror that they
were going to witness
next:
"Ka boom!" someone entered the door.
"Prepare for trouble! You're gunna die! TODAY!" It was the terrible
Jude Ishtar. And he
had a machine gun in his hands.
Jude Ishtar began firing bullets. But he did not fire them at the whole
room- only at
Joshua Christopher.
"You bastard! How dare you?" Rocky charged at him. Jude hit him with
his right hand.
"Ow my arm! It's broken! How am I gunna defend JC with a broken arm?"
But Joshua Christopher snapped his fingers and suddenly
"Not anymore! My bone is fine now! Take this you idiot!
Rocky tried to hit Jude Ishtar, but he failed. Jude Ishtar kept firing
bullets at Joshua
Christopher.
Lucas tried to dial 911 on his cell phone. But Jude fired a bullet that
made the phone
explode. Yet he did not fire at Lucas at all- he didn't even hurt his
hand.
"Help! Please help!" Maddie and Paula tried to exit the room. But they
could not open
the doors nor the windows.
"Kill me, but please don't kill my friend Chris." Ian said, jumping
into the line of fire.
"Please don't, Ian." Joshua Christopher said. Now Ian noticed that
Joshua Christopher
was doing absolutely nothing do defend himself nor hurt Jude Ishtar.
Yet he did not allow
any of his friends to get hurt.
Unfortunately, enough bullets hit Joshua Christopher to knock him unconscious.
Lucas
tried to perform CPR on him, but it did not work. Joshua's heart had
stopped.
"Nooooo! Not Joshua Christopher. Not the most awesome person we have ever met!"
"HAHAHAHAHA! I WON!"
"YOU ARE WRONG! YOU LOST!"
Chapter 7- Ever After
The five friends were devastated...until they heard three simultaneous
voices tell Jude
Ishtar that he was wrong. They thought for a moment it was the police
who had arrived
mysteriously. But instead, they saw the three good-looking friends
they had seen with
Joshua Christopher before: a blonde-haired blue eyed man, a dark-haired,
dark-eyed man,
and a red-haired, hazel-eyed woman.
"We tried to fight this bastard and to save Joshua Christopher, but
we could not. We are
sorry. And how did you get here?"
The three Royal Court members immediately appeared in their uniforms.
"This is NOT Jude Ishtar." the dark-haired one, Lord Raphael, said.
"No wonder we could not find anything about him." Maddie said.
"Oh yeah, then who is he?" Rocky asked in a worried tone.
"This is Leviathan." the blonde, Lord Michael, said. "Ruler of the
evil kingdom"
Jude Ishtar immediately changed into his true form- a horrible demon
who resembled a
dragon most out of all things, if it could be described.
"AARRRGGGGH! We're dead meat!" the five kids screamed in horror. Leviathan
snarled at the Royal Court and at the students, but did not attack
them for some reason.
"And this is not really Joshua Christopher Davidson, but Prince Adonai."
"I should have suspected. No human being is that kind and smart!" Maddie
said.
"Now we truly ARE dead meat"
"We tried to save him. We really did. We tried calling 911 and giving
him CPR."
"But none of that worked"
"Now we ARE gonna be in deep trouble." the five said at the time.
"On the contrary, you are now out of trouble." the woman, Lady Gabrielle,
said.
"Three! Two! One!" Lord Michael, Lord Raphael, and Lady Gabrielle said
simultaneously.
The kids could not believe their eyes. Joshua Christopher got up as
if nothing had
happened. He was smiling...and his hair was growing long, and his school
clothes now
changed to a very beautiful royal attire.
"You think you could beat me, Leviathan? Don't you know the power of
Adonai? Now
go back to where you belong and NEVER EVER bother this beautiful planet
anymore!"
Prince Adonai commanded Leviathan. The evil demon disappeared, this
time for good.
"Wow, Prince Adonai" Rocky, Maddie, Lucas, Paula, and Ian bowed to the
Prince.
"Hey, I am still your friend. Think of me as that, even though I am
the Prince".
"Please don't go yet!"
"I am going home. I will go be with my Daddy. But don't worry- someday
you will come
to my kingdom, and you will be there with me forever."
Prince Adonai, Lord Michael, Lord Raphael, and Lady Gabrielle disappeared
from the
classroom, surrounded by light.
"We are back!" four happy voices announced.
"Adonai! My darling Adonai. You did it! I am so proud of you. I love
you."
"I love you too, Daddy"
And everyone was able to live happily ever after.
I had written this fanfic in Summer 2000, inspired by a dream. The original
version was
lost after my modem was fried, so I tried to rewrite it as best as
I could. But the message
is the same. I changed some genders, because I am a hopeless feminist,
and there are
some anacronisms, but the essence is what's important.
