The ExcorcismA Chapter by Steve F.A priest has Mike, Sarah, and John to meet him at a church. They go to the chrch and the excorcism begins. Unfortunately, there are some...complications..."Well, this is the place." John said, stepping out of the car. Mike was a little on edge from all this, so he tripped leaving the car. "Are you ok?" Sarah asked. "Yeah, yeah. Just a little light-headed from all of this." Mike replied. He pulled himself off the ground. When Sarah tried to help him, but Mike refused any help. "I have to do this by myself." He hastily told her. He was fully standing and began walking to the church. "Welcome my son." The father of the church said to Mike as he walked in. The preacher placed his hand on Mike, but pulled it away when he felt a shock of pain. "I have never seen such a powerful demonic energy in anyone." The preacher said. He led the three to the downstairs room that they had set up for the excorcism.
"Michael, this experience may be hard on you and everyone around you. If it is successful, the demon inside of you will be gone. If it fails, which occassionally happens, then further excorcisms may be necessary. There have been some known cases where nothing could be done about a demonic possession. Do you understand what I have just explained?" The preacher explained. "Yes." Mike said back to him. Mike lay down on the table and each of his limbs was held down by a person. John and Sarah held his arms and two priests held his legs. The Preacher began with an 'Our Father' and then began reading psalms. As the excorcism progressed, things seemed to be going well. The preacher took a bottle of holy water and a small droplet landed on Mikes forehead. The second the drop hit, Mike's body lurched and a powerful prescense was felt throughout the room. "Whats going on?" John asked the preacher. "The demon is showing itself. This could be bad." The preacher replied. He splashed droplets of holy water all over Mike in hopes of removing the demon as it showed itself. Mike's right arm launched up and grasped Sarah around the neck. He slowly lifted her up and choking her. The priests were thrown backwars and John was knocked unconscious from a punch thrown by Mike. "Mike...what...why are you doing this?" Sarah coughed out
Mike came to at that moment but could not control his right arm. He quickly grabbed a pointed cross and stabbed his arm. It was excruciating but it allowed him to regain control of his arm. He screamed in pain from it and Sarah hit the floor with a thud. She hissed as she attempted to get up. it hurt like hell for her to stand. She had sprained her ankle and she couldn't stand. "Mike, what the f**k was that about?!" She asked him. "It's not his fault."The preacher said. It was at that moment that Sarah noticed the cross in Mike's arm. "Oh my god!" She screamed. "It's alright Sarah. I had to do it. Father, do you have any straps to hold me down so I don't hurt anyone again?" Mike asked. "Yes. I will go get them." He said as he left. "Sarah...I am so sorry. I didn't know that was happening...I..I..I don't know what i've become!" Mike tried to explain. He was incapable of fully expressing to her his sadness, but she seemed to understand. The preacher came back and Mike was strapped down. "Let us try this again." The preacher stated.
The night wore on as the preacher continued reading psalms. Holy water was used and everytime it touched his skin, Mike's body lurched and at one point he began having a seizure. "Stop it! He may die!" Sarah pleaded. "No, we mustn't stop. If we stop now, he may not be freed. It is almost over, please have patience." The preacher replied to her. Another splash of holy water and Mike's body came to a standstill. Sarah looked at him for a while before he opened his eyes. "Is it...is it done?" He asked. "Yes. You may go now. Please contact me if anything happens." The preacher said. "Thank you father." Mike said as his straps were undone. He stood and carried John to the car. The drive home was silent and Mike sat quietly looking out the mirror. "You thought you could get rid of me that easily?!" An evil voice said as a truck slammed into Mike's side of the car Sarah was driving. © 2009 Steve F. |
