The Angel of Mercy stood before the MOST HIGH with His head bowed. The SON also stood interceding for the Human race…

“ Please Father, do not wipe them out, we know you can raise a new generation for yourself, but remember your beloveds are amongst them.”

The MOST HIGH looked at them and still with a firm face, He said…

“ I have heard your pleas,but my mind is made up. I want to erase this wicked generation and raise me a new one…”

“ ABBA FATHER! Please… Mercy Speak…” The SON Said to the ANGEL of Mercy

The Angel of Mercy said… “For the sake of the blood of your son and for the sake of the few righteous ones…”

The Most High cut in…

“ You keep saying the righteous ones, the righteous ones, do I still have the righteous ones on that earth. Do I still have those who are true to me, Can I find 50 in any Subdivision.” Father was referring to countries as Subdivisions….

“Take a Look at the earth, only a few lights, the rest is darkness.”

“ For the few lights, Have mercy. The little lights will spread the Light all round the world…”

“ No….” The father’s voice sounded like many waters . It was fearful .

Massai sat by the window of his Bribia Island house. He wasn’t used to having His Bible Study indoors, so he sat close to window, though it was shut, he wanted to see the outside world. Massai saw Folabi alighting from a Taxi. He was covered up in a beekeeping suit. That was the new outfit in town.

“ Mr Folabi!” Massai called out…

*************

Folabi had two things in mind, he was going to pray so as to hear What God would say about Ella. He was also going to inform her daughter and her husband. Whatever, they decided he would do!

“ Mr Folabi!” Folabi heard Massai calling him. He wasn’t in the mood for any chit chat with any islander at the moment but Massai was different. He was a Christian. Folabi thought it wise to answer him, Massai as an elderly Christian could help him out at this point…

**********

Xavier tried calling his wife , but it wasn’t going through. He was ready to return home as Islingbee Virus was no longer on the headline news. He was sure no one would be out looking for him. No one would remember him as the guy who made a lot of people die because they knew he had the Virus…

Thinking about it, Xavier began to question If he ever had the Virus. Maybe it was just flu he had!

He kept redialing his wife’s number but her Line wasn’t going through… He had been so consumed in his evil plan of infecting someone else on the Island that he didn’t reach out to his wife. Sharon had been all over him so much he couldn’t revealed his married status. Sharon’s death had made him realize his level of self centeredness. He had left his family without looking back…

“ Honey, please pick up…”

Unfortunately, the line was dead because Xavier didn’t realize, his wife had killed herself and their daughter. Since she never heard from Xavier coupled with the devastating news on the T.V, she decided to end things.

Xavier was not going to give up until he Spoke with his wife… He kept redialing the number without results…

Xavier didn’t know what made his eyes go to the muted T.V screen…

“ TELECOMMUNICATION COMPANIES SUSPECT THEY MAY BE SHUTTING DOWN SOON AS MOST OF THEIR KEY ENGINEERING STAFF ARE REFUSING TO GO TO WORK FOR FEAR OF THE FIRE FLIES…”

“ Is the Telecommunication company shutting down like the hospitals?” Xavier screamed after asking himself that sincere question…

“How is the Madam doing?” Massai had asked

Folabi

“Still unconscious..” he replied

“I heard the hospitals are shutting down and possibly the telecommunication companies will do same.” Massai said

“ Is this not the end of the world? I mean you seem to know more Scriptures than I do, Is this how the world is meant to end..?”

Massai sighed deeply…

“Well, Scriptures tell us that, Wars, battles will be the sign of the end of the world. So if what is happening could pass as those battles, then this is the beginning of the end of the world.” Massai said

“ I thought it was supposed to be rapture that would cause the end of the world…not virus and fireflies…”

“ Well, I think this is not the real end of the world, this is an unplanned extermination of earth’s inhabitants. I perceive this is a repeat of history. I suspect God is angry at the terrible lifestyles and he wants to purge the land as He did during the days of Joshua and CALEB.” Massai said

“ God killing everyone above 20 years old except Joshua and Caleb?” Folabi said

“ Yes, from my study of History… I have realized that When humans become very terrible, God has a way of purging the Land and starting a new generation of people. “ Massai said

“ Hmmm… but there is always an escape for few righteous people right?” Folabi asked

“Like Lot escaped from Sodom & Gomorrah, Like Noah & his family, Like Joshua & Caleb and the younger generation of the Israelites…” Massai affirmed

“ Hmmm… younger generation! Is that why the Fireflies don’t touch Children.?”

“ I guess!”

“So how many of us are going to be saved?” Folabi asked at the reality that God could actually wipe the entire earth out, if He is the one behind the fireflies.

“Are you asking me that?” Massai said laughing

“ Well, you have everything all figured out, I might as well find that out from you!”

“ Well, I am as ignorant as you! All I know is that in any display of God’s anger, he mostly retains some humans. My prayer is that I end up as one of the retained ones.” Massai said

“Me too.., but … I have a great dilemma at hand….” Folabi said

Folabi explained the recent update about Ella and how he had to make a decision urgently…

“ What do you think God would want me to do? Would he want me to pull the plug?” Folabi asked

“ I don’t know, but do you have a choice?” Massai replied

“‘Medically, No…”

“ But we can pray?”

“ I would be happy to know what God wants us to do…”

“ And beyond that, we need to really seek the face of God about the Islingbee Virus and Fireflies…”

“ Yeah… I really want to know what is happening…”

“Anytime you are free I am ready!”

“ What’s wrong with now? We have been jobless for weeks.”

“ Fine! Your place or mine?”

“ Anywhere…”

Let’s have it at your place so we do not disturb my wife…”

Lucky, the Chef on the Airship, was happy he did not drink the syrup. He had the Islingbee Virus but he had been so hopeful that he will be cured once he had the Syrup on the Airship.

He remembered wanting to take the syrup first but he had told his assistant chefs to take their own first.

The two assistants dropped dead a few seconds after they took the syrup.

Lucky knew his name pulled through for him or else he would have been dead, however, he was still unlucky as he was still Islingbee Virus positive.

He didn’t need anyone to inform him that his death was near… but how would it be only him that won’t make it to the ALPHA CENTER…?

“Never, everyone on this Airship has to get the Virus, because that is the only way, the 3 kings can seek the antivirus.”
