Eclipsed Day
Solar night
My judgment is a beacon light
For those evil who oppose God's might
Take heed
Blinding light
Chapter 1: Alpha and Omega
Barren land scape for miles ahead, far into the unknown. Dark clouds hung over head; it was super natural how fast they were drifting toward me. Death was everywhere around me, scaring me to stillness. A single perfect red apple lies harmlessly at my feet. It was all horrible, death was everywhere, and something was crawling under my skin. Crawling, waiting for the moment I give in to temptation and deception. Seeing all this, I didn't want to give in…because all this was caused from all of that. Face turned up to the sky, hoping for light…praying for salvation. The clouds began to recede to reveal light, no sun just light. Everything was reversing, what was once dead was now living. A garden surrounded me, a perfect garden with a perfect tree. It was deceptive, that tree. So many other trees, but it boasted superiority over it all. I was in the middle of paradise, animals roaming carefree and in many numbers. Abundance of plants, food and water. Who would give up such perfection, such love? Love was all around, the love of the father and the love of the son.
Whispers of "Leviticus" To the right! "Leviticus" to the left! "Leviticus" up! Finally, I looked up to see a blinding sight. Angels, beautiful angels upon every cloud, strength radiated from every one of them. They could not be touched for they, where protected by the strength and might of the all mighty. The every seeing, the god of many, and the god of my life. Awe filled me, ran like liquid blood through my veins. Adrenaline rushed through my ears, rushed through me like a race car. I was speechless, thoughtless, and I felt stupid for it. Suddenly my world was shaken up, the ground split and I was about to be swallowed up. A truly huge angel stepped forward and smiled a truly amazing smile.
Leviticus as all that was said from the angel? Who was Leviticus? I looked down and shook my head. Dread poured over me like rain.
"No, No…No!" That couldn't be it; it couldn't be over…It just couldn't be. The angel was shaking, a laugh erupted passed open lips. It was strong, deep, and melodious. He was laughing at me, seriously laughing at me. "It can't be over; I didn't get a chance…" A hand was raised over a deep set of brown curls; the big angel looked serious for a moment.
"It's just the beginning, your beginning…"
I was floored by the deep meaning behind the words. Beginning? Me, but I've always been. I always existed somewhere, I never ended nor ceased. I began to fall into the abyss below, but not before I got a glimpse of a scarred being from head to toe. I lifted my hand for him, he was beautiful and I didn't want to leave. My eyes opened, a bright fluorescent light hit me. When had I closed my eyes? Smokey green eyes looked upon a face, so familiar and yet a mystery. I reached up to blindly grab at the face.
"Leviticus." Huh, that word again. "I'll call you Leviticus." Me? I'm Leviticus? How about that? A flash of bright light caught the corner of my curious eyes. The angel again, he was smiling like no one's business. He reached for me and put his big hand over my hand. A light blue symbol for Alpha and Omega bled over my palm.
"Beginning and the end, the first and last, the beginning not ready to end. Always watching, never gone, and always near."
