Unholy Foursome.

Walking along the high street looking in the shop windows I found myself in a strange place. I was sitting in a comfortable chair like throne. I was not alone in a chair like throne opposite me was an evil looking man, to my left was a man whose face was too difficult to see properly it was this man that spoke. Welcome to Heaven Mr. Shaw, This man with the evil looking face is one that you know as Satan or the Devil.

These four are Angels or as you know them Archangels. They are my personal guards for even here in Heaven the devil is always hatching out new schemes to take over Heaven and turn it into another Hell. You Mr. Shaw have been brought here to set this evil Satan in his place. You have been chosen because you too are as crafty as this Satan or as you personally call him Old Nick.

Do not let him fool you with his promises. He is renowned for breaking every promise that he has ever made. Be perpetually on your guard he despises you as the one that has openly written about him and his attempts to take over Heaven. Suddenly a hoarse voice called out, “ So I meet you bodily not that it matters your time on Earth is nearly at an end. And you think that you can stop me from taking over Heaven and turning it into a second hell.

Bracing myself I faced the Devil. Smiling I said, “You are a stupid fool that cannot see further than your fat bulbous nose. Do you really think that with my help you can triumph over God, The Angelic hosts and all of the souls that now reside in Heaven? Let me tell you this Old Nick for that is what you are old not even on Earth does anyone speak about you, all but a very few have forgotten that you ever existed. You have sadly neglected Earth and I suspect many other planets and why have you neglected the peoples of all of these planets? Because your mind or brain has concentrated for so long on taking over Heaven, You will never be able to take over this place that has so much goodness floating everywhere one goes, that there is no place for your evil.”

I myself know that my time is coming and I too will be in your hell. Do you really think that your Hell is or was any worse than my time spent on Earth? No Old Nick or Nickodemus you have nothing in your power that will or can frighten me. I have lived through the Hell called Earth and I suspect that is why I have been chosen to take part in this Heavenly Meeting. No Nick I am not the character that you think I am. Being here in the presence of God and the Archangels and you yourself does not make me think that I will ascend from the hell on Earth to this Heaven. I know full well that one must pay for all wrong doings that one has committed on Earth. I like many others will come to Hell and who knows Perhaps I will be able to overthrow you and make Hell what it once was before you were thrown out of heaven. Under my guidance Hell will once again become Heaven, yes Old Nick Heaven as it was before you annexed it and turned it into Hell. Old Nick’s face turned into a series of grimaces, he knew that someone that had been through Hell on Earth could quite easily be even more devilish than he himself.

Suddenly I was back in the High Street looking at the things placed ready for sale, My mind was not really taking in what I was seeing I was still in that Heavenly Place and my brain was planning what would be the best way to thwart old Nick and turn his Hell back to Heaven again. Wish me luck in my next life in Hel, your Scribbler Bern.
