JCS - AFTERWORLD
1
2 Chapter 1
Something`s happening in Afterworld. A man, wrapped up in golden gleam, is floating down to something we could call ground. Actually it`s nothing firm, nothing airy either; indeed it`s not existent, or only existent like an idea. But since the human brain has some troubles to imagine something, that exists and doesn`t exist at the same time, just think of a stage without walls all around. That`s roughly, what you would see, if you saw anything.
The man shakes his locks and golden dust splashes away. He strides along the path, followed by another man, who hardly keeps up with him trying to involve him into a talk. Suddenly the blonde man turns around and asks his follower: "Do I know you?"
His follower is confused. "Of course you know me."
More men appear on stage. Wherefrom? Who cares? It`s not important for the story.
"I was your second favourite disciple, Jesus!"
The man with golden locks -let`s call him Jesus, for that`s his name- raises one eyebrow. "Oh yes? Then you must be the one who denied me. Three times."
Peter sighs: "Come on, Jesus! It`s been at least 2000 years ago."
Still arguing they pass two disciples.
Jacobus, an unrepossessing disciple, who seems to be much too young to be a member of the group, seems to be amazed. He turns to the wiry, hectic Simon, whose yellow hair -no, you don`t call this colour blonde, do you?- could be used as a weapon, and asks: "The second favourite? Who was the first? Ah yes, I remember, Mary was his favourite."
Simon shakes his prickly head so vehemently, that Jacobus steps backwards afraid of being stabbed by the hair. (Not that it mattered - after all they`re already dead or at least they`re not living.)
Simon can`t suppress a grin, when he answers: "No, Judas was his favourite."
Jacobus, our innocent little minor, is stunned: "Judas?"
Simon leans his head towards Jacobus and whispers something into his ear. Jacobus blushes, and Simon bursts out in uncontrolled laughter.
"But don`t tell M." he sais.
Suddenly the ground before the stage opens and a man climbs on stage. He`s covered with soot and a tongue of fire licks behind him. He wipes the soot away and the fire withdraws.
Jacobus and Simon approach him. Jacobus stares admiring at this face. "Oh my, Judas, what a tan!"
Judas grins. "It`s quite hot there."
From underneath a moaning female voice howls: "Juuuuudaaaas!"
Judas turns around and looks down into the hole: "This wasn`t my idea, Luzi! The old man has been calling."
Simon approaches Judas grinning meaningfully. "If it`s too bad down there, I`d love to exchange my place to yours."
Judas smirks ironically. "I bet you would. But actually it`s not bad. You just shouldn`t make Luzi fly into a rage. That could turn out very hot."
In the meanwhile Peter and Jesus have joined the grouup, and Judas and Jesus see each other for the first time since a while.
Judas smiles friendly. "Hey JC!"
Jesus, who`s in a puting mood today, hisses: "Don´t call me like this!"
Judas smile deepens. "Come on, don`t tell me you`re still mad at me!"
"Mad at you?" Jesus snorts. "Why should I be mad at you? After all you only traded me to the priests and got me crucified."
"And you?" Judas gets a bit upset, too. "Because of you I hanged myself and now I have to suffer infernal...."
Someone growls from beneath the ground.
"Don`t growl, Luzi." Judas tells the floor. "You know, I love you, dear."
Then he turns to the others. "So, can anyone tell me what the old man wants this time?"
"I think he`s bored." Jacobus tries to explain.
Judas shrugs. "So what?"
Peter sighs. "He wants to see a liveperformance of his grand masterpiece, the exodus."
"The what?" Simon looks confused.
"The exodus, you blockhead!" Jesus replies amazingly rude for the bringer of peace and understanding.
No sign of realization is to be seen on Simon`s face. Jesus sighs frustrated.
"Moses - leading the isrealitans - out of egypt. Have you ever read the book that made you famous?"
"Well, the real Moses was a loser in acting." Peter continues. "So the old man wants someone with persuasive power - Charlton Heston."
Jacobus is a bit confused. "But he`s still alive."
"Yes," Simon replies. "He constantly sends him ideas, inspirations, makes him play with all these weapons, but he doesn`t get the hints."
"Yeah, when it comes to weapons, you know it all." Jesus sais sarcastically.
"So, it`s our turn again?" Judas asks.
"Jip." Peter answers shortly.
"Well, where`s Mary?" Judas looks around. "If I`m right, she was with us the last time, was she not?"
Jesus shrugs. "I haven`t seen her for a while."
"It`s always the same." Judas sighs. "I told you, don`t drag women with you along. They need to much time! And now we have to wait for her again. Hell, I want to get home soon! I just managed to light the fireside, and it`s thursday, you know, Luzi`s free day, and Azrael is somewhere down on earth doing his job." He adds with a meaningful smile.
