- Years
- ago,
- four
- young
- people
- were
- entrusted
- with
- raising
- a
- special
- child,
- and
- they
- vowed
- to
- protect
- him
- at
- any
- cost.
- Now
- a
- diabolical
- secret
- coven
- threatens
- their
- government
- and
- everything
- they
- hold
- dear.
- As
- they
- risk
- their
- lives
- to
- prevent
- disaster,
- they
- discover
- dire
- secrets
- that
- rock
- the
- very
- foundation
- of
- their
- lives.
- Who
- can
- they
- trust
- in
- a
- horrifying
- world
- filled
- with
- deadly
- secrets?~~~~~
- Excerpt
- ~~~~~James
- lost
- his
- footing
- as
- he
- heard
- what
- John
- said
- to
- him
- and
- felt
- the
- sweat
- working
- its
- way
- down
- his
- back.
- James
- felt
- like
- he
- was
- going
- to
- pass
- out.
John
- looked
- at
- him
- and
- took
- a
- better
- grip
- of
- James
- arm
- to
- steady
- him.
- John
- then
- started
- to
- guide
- him
- out
- of
- the
- museum
- when
- a
- loud
- explosion
- was
- heard
- outside.
This
- cause
- James
- to
- become
- more
- alert
- and
- started
- to
- run
- outside
- following
- behind
- John
- and
- almost
- running
- into
- him.
- John
- had
- stopped
- several
- steps
- outside.
James
- followed
- John
- gaze
- as
- he
- saw
- the
- taxi
- car
- engulf
- in
- flame
- and
- could
- see
- Frank’s
- form
- also
- engulf
- in
- flame
- in
- the
- car.
- James
- was
- about
- to
- run
- toward
- the
- car
- when
- John
- stood
- in
- his
- path
- and
- gently
- pushed
- him
- back,
- “There
- is
- nothing
- you
- can
- do,
- it’s
- too
- late
- for
- the
- man,
- and
- he’s
- dead
- already!”
James
- stood
- about
- 260
- feet
- from
- Frank
- and
- the
- taxi.
- He
- let
- a
- few
- tears
- drip
- from
- his
- eyes
- as
- if
- he
- knew
- Frank
- for
- a
- while.
- John
- shoved
- James
- in
- the
- opposite
- direction
- from
- the
- museum.
Many
- people
- were
- running
- out
- of
- the
- museum
- in
- terror.
- The
- two
- men
- that
- had
- been
- across
- the
- street
- started
- crossing
- the
- street
- and
- continued
- toward
- John
- and
- James.
- John
- noticed
- a
- slight
- bulk
- in
- one
- of
- the
- man’s
- jacket.
- His
- life
- experiences
- allowed
- him
- to
- quickly
- realize
- it
- was
- a
- gun.
The
- other
- man
- slid
- his
- hand
- into
- his
- pocket
- and
- pulled
- out
- a
- cigarette
- and
- a
- lighter;
- trying
- to
- look
- likes
- part
- of
- the
- crowd.
- He
- lit
- the
- cigarette
- revealing
- the
- back
- of
- his
- hand.
- On
- the
- back
- of
- his
- hand
- was
- an
- embedded
- tattoo
- of
- a
- pentagram
- with
- five-pointed
- star
- pointing
- down
- with
- the
- head
- of
- the
- Egyptian
- magic
- god
- Seth
- superimposed
- on
- the
- inverted
- pentagram
- with
- in
- a
- “sacred”
- circle,
- belonging
- to
- the
- Coven
- of
- Seth.
When
- John
- was
- part
- of
- the
- special
- force
- team
- in
- the
- army,
- he
- and
- his
- team
- once
- raided
- a
- satanic
- house
- with
- many
- colt
- descriptions.
- The
- Coven
- of
- Seth
- was
- described
- as
- one
- of
- the
- most
- dangerous
- and
- most
- active
- colts
- still
- together
- today.
- “Quickly,
- no
- time
- to
- explain,
- just
- run”
- John
- shouted
- at
- the
- air;
- as
- he
- picked
- up
- speed.
John
- reached
- behind
- his
- wind
- breaker
- and
- pulled
- out
- a
- gun.
- “They’re
- coming
- for
- us”
- James
- was
- pulled
- by
- John
- in
- the
- opposite
- direction
- of
- the
- taxi.
- James
- started
- to
- run
- asking.
- “You
- believe
- that
- they
- were
- after
- me?”
In
- acknowledgment,
- John
- nodded
- his
- head
- in
- agreement.
- They
- rounded
- the
- corners
- and
- came
- to
- an
- alley
- way,
- where
- they
- stopped.
- John
- turned
- his
- head
- around
- the
- corner
- to
- look.
The
- two
- men
- were
- about
- to
- cross
- the
- street
- toward
- them.
- Gun
- in
- hand
- John
- pushed
- James
- to
- move
- a
- little
- faster.
- The
- alley
- way
- was
- located
- behind
- a
- row
- of
- older
- buildings.
- As
- John
- went
- he
- tried
- some
- of
- the
- doors
- which
- were
- locked.
They
- covered
- about
- two
- blocks
- where
- they
- came
- to
- a
- construction
- site.
- They
- climbed
- stairs
- to
- a
- vantage
- point
- that
- was
- about
- 20
- feet
- above
- ground.
- The
- two
- men
- came
- up
- to
- the
- construction
- site,
- John
- and
- James
- were
- able
- to
- take
- cover.
The
- sirens
- were
- getting
- closer
- and
- someone
- had
- gotten
- a
- fire
- extinguisher
- and
- had
- been
- working
- on
- trying
- to
- control
- the
- fire.
- One
- of
- the
- pursers
- said
- to
- the
- other
- “Look
- we
- got
- to
- get
- out
- of
- here
- before
- the
- cops
- show
- up
- and
- start
- asking
- questions
- we’ll
- get
- them
- later”
- and
- took
- off
- in
- the
- opposite
- direction
- of
- the
- construction site.
