The Cadaver

Silver's ship slowly docked upon the moor as Jim jumped over the railing and landed on the silvers stones of Pavement that glimmered in the moonlight. The paved path lead towards two iron gates and continued towards a large mansion. Several gleaming lights peaked though the heavily shrouded windows of the Doppler home. The quiet humming noise of the Long boat slowly died down. Silver began to tighten his long boat into the moor as Jim began to stroll down the path to the gates. Jim stopped a few feet away from the black iron gates when suddenly the gate began to upon.

A loud creak of the opening Gate echoed across the dark lawn of the Doppler Mansion. Jim and Silver slowly entered with their steps creating a lowly "clop-clop" sound. When they reached the front door Jim's eye caught a window that shown brightly in the Dark. Silver's arm reached up and began to knock on the door. Jim suddenly saw a dark silhouette pass across the window. He began to hear foots steps that gradually became closer.

Then the huge oak doors of the mansion open and there standing in front of them was the Professor Delbert Doppler. His glasses slighted sideways and he wore a surprised look on his face. He squinted his eyes in order to see the two visitors that knocked on his door. Fixing his glasses upon the bridge of his nose he a gave astounded shriek,

"Egad is that you? Jim Hawkins?" then his attention turned towards Silver and gave another astounded shriek, "a-and y-you John Silver," He said quivering slightly,

"P-Please come I didn't know you would come back so soon from the Academy," Doppler stepped aside and began to beckon Jim and Silver into the Foyer of his home, "How's things going in that Academy of yours?"

"Doc we need you help, the Etherium's endanger," said Jim, "e-endanger? How?" asked Doppler.

"Sir do you know who the Omniscient is?" asked Silver as his mechanic eyes darted across the large expanse of the foyer.

"A yes yes Him, Lucifer, Satan, the devil, the beast. Yes of course I've heard of him He's returned."

"Lucifer?" asked Jim Astonished and alarmed. Doppler closed the door behind them, "Follow me. I don't like to talk about this in such huge rooms. The reverberation would allow spies to eavesdrop. Let us go to another room with more carpet to absorb the noise." Delbert lead them across the hall to a small salon lined with shelves of books. There was a fireplace that illuminated the dark room. And above it was a small portrait of the Doppler family.

Jim and Silver sat down by the fire place while Delbert scanned the shelves of books and took out a thick red covered book from one of the shelves and opened it. He flipped through the pages and stopped at the middle. He gave a cheer of triumph as the tapped on the page and turned his attention to Jim and Silver.

"Here is a passage from the Revelation from the bible" Then he read:

"Then I saw an angel coming down from Heaven holding in his hand the key of the abyss and a heavy chain. He seized the dragon, that ancient- that is devil or Satan.- and Chained him up for a thousand years. The angel sealed it, so that he could not deceive the nations any more untile the thousand years were over. After that he must be set loose for a little while," Doppler flipped the pages of the book and continued:

"After the thousand years are over Satan will be set loose from his prison and he will go out to deceive the nations scattered over the whole world , that is Gog and Magog, Satan will bring them all together for battle, as many as the grain of sand on the seashore. They spread out over the earth and surround the camp of God's people and the city that he loves." Doppler closed the book and placed it back on the shelf.

He sat down by the fire and gazed at Jim and Silver. "Jim your quest it to find the key to the abyss the abyss that holds the omniscient one's true spirit and body. They Omniscient one that is dwelling in Nolram is only a mere representation only a man that has fallen into evil a man who was possessed by the devil himself and plans to release the Serpent in order to gain the true power of the devil. Jim your job is to find the key before they do. You must also find the seven seals that are hidden in that abyss. But that is only the half of your quest Jim. You will find the rest of your great mission soon,"

For the first time Delbert sounded confident and brave. Jim gazed into the dieing fire in the fire place as his thought ran across in head. Delbert continued, "In order to find the key to the Abyss we must find the Guardians of Zion. A very secret society that originated hundred of years ago to protect the coming of the revelation. Only they hold the Key."

Suddenly the phone began to ring as Delbert picked it up and spoke, "Hello."

The sound of the Person in the phone spoke rapidly, "Doctor Doppler this professor Gray heart I have grave news." They man in the phone gave a loud sigh, "Delbert, Proffesor Gunther was murdered," Doppler dropped the phone into the carpet as he gazed into space bewildered and alarm. The man in the phone continued to speak, "Delbert the police are here and have taken pictures of the crime. I'll go send it to you write away through the fax machine." Suddenly there was a loud click in the phone and the sound of the dial tone ringing in the receiver.

Delbert still astonished by the news gazed into the flame and said, "I can't believe it!" moments later their was a low humming noise coming from the fax machine. Then coming from the slot at the front was a picture. Doppler took the picture into his hand and gaze at it. He gaze a shout as he put his palm on his mouth. Jim and Silver went around to see what the picture was. It showed at a large bear man. Covered in thick red blood that streamed down his clothes. Then there was a gapping wound that lay upon his chest. Then upon his paws was something that shocked Delbert causing fear to take over him, "OH MY GOODNESS!!!!"
