Okay i'm trying something new here I know i'm probably not gonna get many reviews for this...oh well.
3rd person POV
Buck sat on the small couch in the shelter underneath New Hope church. The shelter was okay. Really it was okay. The shelter was small and had three rooms. It had a living room/kitchen filled with the latest appliances. It had a bedroom with two cots and a lamp. And it had a sitting room filled with couches, chairs and pillows. Besides the fact that it was cold, dark and smelt like plumbing, it was fine. Besides the shelter did its job. It did its job very well.

What is that, you may ask? The shelters job is to protect. To protect the tribulation force and the rest of New Hope Church from all opposing forces.

Many forces had apposed the tribulation saints but none was as potent and strong as one force in particular. That force was Nicolae Carpathia. Its hard to believe but Buck once liked Carpathia. But that seemed like a long, long time ago. In fact the entire tribulation force (and not to mention the rest of New Hope) seemed to like this new "peaceful" leader that seemed to come out of nowhere at the right place at the right time. Rayford Steele even said that he hoped this young man wasn't the antichrist.

I knew I left out something. Carpathia was indeed the antichrist predicted in the revelations and had proven so through his actions in front of Buck.

What actions are these you may ask? Many had proven to Buck that this handsome young man was the antichrist but one just did it for him in particular.

Buck had been in a meeting with Carpathia. He had witnessed something with several dozen people. Yet... he was the only one who remembered.

The meeting in question was mainly between Carpathia and his boss Stonagal. This man, Stonagal, had provided Carpathia with the finances he needed to get up to his current position as Secretary General of the U.N.

During the middle of the meeting Carpathia suddenly stood up and began to pace around the room, a cold smirk decorating his face.

His eyes glinted dangerously as he walked across the room accusing Stonagal. He suddenly stopped in front of a guard and politely asked him for his gun.

The guard smiled, as if in a trance, and handed his gun willingly to Nicolae.

Nicolae smirked and began accusing Stonagal once again. He suddenly raised the gun and pressed the trigger.

A loud bang echoed through the large conference room as Stonagal's lifeless body slid to the floor in front of dozens of people.

Buck stared at Nicolae in terror mouthing the word, "No…" as Nicolae began to explain to the crowd of people what had truly happened.

He explained to them his sheer terror as Stonagal rushed forward and grabbed the gun from the guard and brought it to his head.

Buck was the only one at that meeting who had left knowing he had just witnessed a murder, all because of the power of god.

This is when Buck had learned of the true nature of Carpathia. The cruel things he was capable of and his heartless nature.

So as Buck sat in the cold, smelly shelter he couldn't help but let his mind drift to the man.

There were many things pleasing about Carpathia for sure. The man was intelligent, able to get him and his allies out of sticky situations. He was fluent in dozens of languages, making him the perfect world leader.

Not to mention the man was beautiful.

Where did that come from?

Buck's POV
'Where did that come from?' I thought, mentally slapping myself.

Sure I'll admit Carpathia is handsome and attractive but beautiful? I must be going insane…

I reached over for the cup of coffee that I had placed on the wooden table next to the couch I was currently sitting on.

I tilted my head to listen. Coming from the other room I heard the soft, even breathing of a sleeping Tsion Ben Judah.

I had promised Tsion that I would stay here with him to keep him company, the poor man.

He had just lost his entire family to Jew's in Israel. He deserved the attention.

I might as well get to bed then… it' going to be hell tomorrow with Carpathia.

I promise there will be more slashy/yaoi goodness in the next chapter!

LE REVIEW!
