Welcome to chapter 2! This will longer then the prologue so enjoy JCS does not belong to me! The Jesus I have in mind for this fic is hands down Ian Gillian who originated the role on the brown album. I love Ted Neely too so I think it's a win-win situation! Enjoy! Read and Review!
Usually, they walked together and spoke. Today they did not. Judas had abandoned the group today to leave and think on her own. Jesus knew why but spoke not a word. As Judas sat atop a hill in the desert watching crowd below, she scoffed. Jesus was beginning to become more important then his teachings. Judas agreed with his teachings full heartedly but people were beginning to say he was the son of the very God. Judas didn't know what to think of that. Her mind was in a dilemma about wheather he was or he wasn't. She could hear Jesus talking about turning the other cheek if someone were to hurt them. A lesson she had heard twice. Of course Judas still loved Jesus, he was a friend and teacher but she didn't like his followers proclaiming that he was the son of God. All of them could be arrested or even worse... Judas could not bear the thought of Jesus of getting killed. Finally, Judas decided she would go down to the crowd, find Jesus and tell him her fears and worries. She had to be so careful climbing down the hill, it was high and somewhat steep, she could easilly fall and hurt herself.
At last, Judas finished her descent and began walking up to Jesus but stopped in mid walk when she saw Mary Magdalene near Jesus and talking to him. Judas growled in full anger but quickly regained control of herself before approaching. She couldn't explode in front of Jesus it wouldn't do. Jesus noticed her presence and went to her, smiling. Judas managed a small small in spite of her boiling anger over Magdalene. "There you are!" Jesus cried, embracing the young woman before him. "I've been wondering where you've been!"
"Listen, Yeshua, I really need to speak to you. It's important!" Judas replied solomnly.
"One moment please." Jesus said, as he broke the embrace to answer a question of an eager apostle. Judas frowned in response to this. This was not how she thought Jesus would react. About five minutes later, Judas tried once more. "Please Yeshua, it can't wait! Please listen to me!" Fine. If he wouldn't listen to her pleas, she would make him listen to her. "Yeshua, I think this crowd is getting out of control. I'm frightened! We're getting much too loud and there could be listeners around, waiting to crush you!" Still not answer from Jesus. He wasn't even paying attention! Judas tugged at his robe, much like a child wanting attention. "You're not listening to me!" She shouted angrily.
"Judas, I'll talk to you in a minute, just let me finish what I was saying..." Jesus replied, somewhat wearily. Judas was starting to become irritated and was growing angrier with every second that Jesus ignored her. "Nazareth, why couldn't your son stayed unknown?" Judas muttered under her breath, "Him building tables, and chairs would have been much better and would have suited him." She was beginning to wonder why she even bothered. Judas was even wondering if she was even important or valued in Jesus's eyes anymore. As of now, Magdalene seemed to have taken Judas's place as Jesus's right hand man. It even even seemed Mary was in love with Jesus. Typical prostitute. Always trying to seduce any man she could and it appeared she had won over Jesus's heart. Judas threw he hands in the air and cried, "I'm through, I'm sick of not being heard!" Judas had expected this from day one. Nobody would take her seriously because of her age. Only Jesus understood her and treated her like an adult... or so it seemed. At age fifteen, Judas was the youngest of the apostles and disciples. Wishing that Jesus would listen to her and in badly in need of some water, Judas retired to the underground caves they were staying in, hoping maybe later things would be different. They wouldn't.
