Cryptic Revelations

I was terrified and my emotions were running extremely high. I looked around to see if I could find the rest of my family. I knew they were somewhere in the house, I just didn’t know where. I had to find them but I knew they were hiding. They weren’t hiding from me. They were hiding from them. Something told me they were coming for us. We just didn’t know why. I made sure all the doors and windows were locked tight. I knew it wouldn’t stop them but for the moment it gave me a small sense of security. It was the middle of the day yet I was afraid to even look out the window. I could hear people outside screaming “why! Why! No! Please no! Stop! Help us! Somebody help us!”and then silence. Complete and total silence. My curiosity had gotten the best of me because when I looked out the window so scared and feeling helpless, I couldn't fathom what I was seeing. People I’ve known for years, people I care about being lead like sheep from their homes. Seemingly becoming transfixed, virtually hypnotized. Suddenly I could feel a presence coming towards me. Astonished, I knelt down and held my breath praying they couldn’t hear my heart pounding inside of me and the blood racing through my veins. I heard a voice from outside yell out “all clear” and I began to breath again. Not completely aware of what was transpiring around us, I knew I had to get my family together. Explain to them what I saw and and try to figure out what we were going to do next. For fear of being heard by them, I called out in a whisper to my family.

“ Beverly...Ayden...Nikolas.... come here quickly I think they are gone for now.”

“Dad, what was that and what is going on “ said Ayden my oldest boy. My wife Beverly and my other son Nik were literally shaking. I put my arms around them and began to tell them of a reoccurring dream I’d been having. Within this nightmare or cryptic revelation, we were in our home and the electricity went out and our cell phones were dead and looking up it was almost like the ceiling was transparent. It was like our roof was missing. We could see the skies being filled with radiant colors of red, purple, yellow and orange, almost like a beautiful sunset swooshing throughout, kinda like they were being painted in waves, but through the colors we could see outer space. It was extremely dark and black. It appeared as if the stars were falling towards Earth and that was what was giving off this radiant light. Thousands of them. It was a terribly awesome sight to behold for sure. The shear speed at which they were entering our atmosphere was amazing. Never had I ever seen anything of the likes of this before. It gave me a feeling of pure evil. Like a heavy weight was overtaking my inner soul. The closer they came into view I realized they weren’t stars at all. They were some kind of vehicle, spaceship if you will and great beams of light, brite and of an amber color were beaming from them towards the Earth. Fierce, firery blasts. I knew then our planet was under attack. Talk about being scared, I was terrified. All of the sudden these space vehicles stopped and just hovered there in the distance. From within this great army of ships appeared an even greater ship. It was uncomparable to the other smaller ones and the sense of evil grew much stronger than before. Now, the speed they were traveling was very, very slow. Now they were crawling at a snails pace, as if they were taking inventory of everything and everyone around them. What am I witnessing right now? What is going on? What am I to do? And just like a blink of the eye they were gone. Bev said “I can’t believe you never mentioned this before.” I told her that I figured it was just some outrageous dream and nothing she’d be interested in. How was I to know it was a prelude to what was coming. It wasn’t like an angel of the Lord paid me a personal visit and said “Behold.” Although when put in perspective it was starting to make sense. Suddenly the electricity was restored and our phones were back on and our first instinct was turn on the news and see if in fact we were under attack. Nik said “don’t do it dad! That’s probably exactly what they want us to do.” “Exactly” I said, for now they obviously don’t know we were left behind and still here. “So as hard as it is y’all do not use your phones. We have to come up with a plan on our own.” Now we were faced with an extremely difficult decision to make. Do we take a chance and venture outside? If I knew one thing it was we couldn’t just stay in here and wait around for them to return. Maybe just maybe there’s others like us that weren’t abducted. Unfortunately, being a convicted felon and because my sweet wife doesn’t believe in us having guns we had nothing to protect ourselves with, but we are Christians so our faith and belief in Christ would have to suffice. “Okay y’all, should we venture together or should I go by myself?” Nik spoke up and said “we should stay together no matter what dad.” Okay I’ll lead and Ayden you bring up the rear. Luckily I do own a set of binoculars and once outside I started looking around the neighborhood for any signs of people left behind and praise God sure enough our friends for over 8 years were basically standing outside like us looking around especially towards the sky. Now, we had no idea if they took the same precautions as we did, keeping our phones turned off and not watching live tv but I felt we had to find out what they knew if anything about what was happening. That feeling of uncertainty was incredible. Should we hop in my Chevy pickup or venture on foot? Ayden said “dad why don’t you and I ride our bicycles down there and Nik and mom stay here with the binoculars. I said “That sounds like a plan son “ and off we went. “Ok Beverly you two hang out here stay behind the bushes but keep an eye on us.” “ We’ll go see if our friends know anything.” My only fear now was if and when “they” would show back up. I mean who knows why we were left behind in the first place. It was a short ride only a couple blocks but once our friends saw us they started running towards us. They were frantic and I couldn’t blame them. They like us are a family of four. John and his wife Samantha and their son John Jr. and daughter Stephanie. When we met up with them they were shaking, scared and I could tell they were basically freaking out. I said “John, what on God’s green Earth just took place?” I knew by the look on his face he was just as confused and amazed as we were. John asked me what I thought we should do and the only thing that I could think of was going door to door and see if there were others like us. He asked about Bev and Nik and I told him they were waiting for us so on our way back to my house we knocked on doors but to know a avail. Everyone one else must have been led away with “them”. Once back home I felt we had no choice so I turned on my phone and immediately messages started popping up from my brother Jeff who lives close by but he was about 3 miles away. What was about to take place next is even more inconceivable!
