CHAPTER ONE

 

"RISING"

 

While desperately seeking opportunities to fund his next work venture. Exauce comes across an Oracle woman potentially prophecy to him as the powerful Terminator.

    Some people in the world think that Jesus Christ is just some fable story but the story of Jesus is real.

    A most interesting story that happens years ago or more like an ancient years ago.

    It starts with “For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him shall not perish, but have everlasting life.

    Jesus Christ is the way, the truth, and life. No one cometh to the Father, but through Him only.

    There is no another way beloved, only Jesus is the Author and the Finisher of our salvation. Amen-Hallelujah.

  Ancient years ago the prophecy was told by the Oracles of the Lord, that the Terminator shall rise out of Ezekiel’s lineage.

   Who will be even more deadly, fatal and powerful than all of the other Terminators?

    He will be the last and herculean one, still the prophecy as not come to pass.

    Still, until the infant was born to Ezekiel and his wife Benir, he was a boy whose name was Exauce.

    Although he as older cousins and other relatives, he was the last and the only Terminator, however, we don’t know yet if he is the last one.

    Until one fateful and a beautiful sunny day, everything was peaceful.

    Yet when all the sudden everything turned to their worst nightmare, Ezekiel Exauce’s father fail to kill the last Immortal (demon) by the name of Bubonic.

    Just as Exauce Fortresse turned two years old where Ezekiel invaded Bubonic’s humongous house and eliminates his wife in coldblooded.

    Therefore Bubonic swore upon revenging his wife, so the powerful Immortal invaded Ezekiel’s mansion.

    He first strangled his wife and the rest of his families including Ezekiel, yet young Exauce runs and hid in the dark closest with a lot of clothes.

    Because he was frightened of seeing his mother, cousins, uncles and aunties and father slain in cruelty.

    After a while, the demon, Bubonic left the house by disappearing in thin air.

His grandfather came to look in the humongous mansion for at least any of his grandsons and daughters survived, but there was none to find.

    For everybody of his family was killed, unless he heard a known frightening and crying voice in the closet.

    Old man Jesse Fortresse heart pause for a moment, because at that time he was about to give up.

    Jesse was hoping to go only to bury the bodies of his some lineage and grief in afflictions and sorrows of his losses.

    Has he opened the door of the closet of Ezekiel’s and Bénir’s bedroom, he encounters his little grandson crying his eyes out?

    “Ah-uh, Exauce, Exauce, oh, my child! Don’t worry- stop crying because your grandfather is here?

    And come because I will take good care of you,” Jesse answered.

    “Waa-a-a-a, mama-um-ma!” Exauce cried. “Oh, there-there child.

    Come let get out here before the boogeyman comes back,” Jesse replied.

    Young Exauce Fortresse and his grandfather went out of the outside exit and were out of sight.

    Twelve years later in Ellisville, Exauce was a young man and already graduates from high school and university.

‘To start with this story you might think that demons aren’t real.

    You might think that it just a fable and fiction story to scare young children.

   But to tell you the truth these treacherous and corrupted fallen angels or Immortals truly exist’.

   Exauce was awakened by the noisy sound of an alarm in his grandfather’s humongous house.

   Old man Jesse usually sleep at his carpet luxurious shop, sailing carpets that he usually makes with his own hands.

     Henceforth he spent most of his time in the shop’s office.

    Exauce woke up by the sound of the phone alarm, searching for it on his desk to stopping its noise.

   His phone mistakenly falls under his bed including his books too.

    Waking up to pick up his phone under his bed and turn off the alarm.

    Exauce Fortresse comes out of his blankets, exercise for a moment with push up, and then came to wake up his cousin Lumière.

   Overdose in his la-la-land, which made him forget that they have something to do this morning.

   “Lumiere- Lumière, its morning! Rise and shine!” Exauce called.

    “Exauce, five minutes please?” Lumière grumbled. “Hey, wake up and I don’t have time for this.

    And five minutes means one hour for you!” He replied.

    Has Lumière continued sleeping without answering him, Exauce kicked the soccer ball on the wall which went to whack him on his forehead.

   When he didn’t see Lumière not waking up, Exauce went to the bathroom sink and took water into a foam plastic cup.

    Arriving before his bed, taking off the warm blanket, and pour the cold water on his belly.

    Lumière wakes up screaming on top of his lungs while Exauce was dying of laughter.

    “Ga-a-a-a-a-a, cold-cold-cold! Exauce what’s the meaning of this?” Lumière snapped while getting off his wet mattress.

    “Wakey-wakey, Senior Sleepyhead!” Exauce teased. “Why you!

    You will pay for this when I get you, a-a-augh!” Lumière growled as he chased him.

  Hours later Exauce and Lumiere find themselves outside looking the luxurious huge shop where they going to expand their grandfather’s business.

    Both of them were checking if everything were perfect with their binoculars from their hands.

  Lumière drops his hands as Exauce glared at Exauce who was really excited.

“So Exauce what do you think of this place? Is it safe or not?” Lumière asked.

    “Yeah, perfecto! In fact, it is the best spot we ever bought it.

    This is just the beginning of expanding our grandfather’s business,” Exauce answered.

    “Well, do you think grandfather will agree to this? Besides have you tell grandfather about this place?” Lumière asked.

    “Um, not quite but I will my trusted, amigo!” Exauce said.

    “Hey, its cousin to you!” Lumière snapped at his older cousin.

    “Yeah, yeah, I hear you cousin, ha-ha!” Exauce scoffed.

    Has both of them, continually looking at their shop where they going to expend the business of their grandpapa.

    Soon after this Exauce and Lumière turn around to look at the two tallest buildings.

    “You know Lumière, we are going to start grandfather’s business from the ground,” Exauce said.

    “I feel you, Exauce. I feel you.” Lumière answered.

    Next day elsewhere the wealthiest businessman arrived in the town of Ellisville.

His secretary Miss. Kirtman was waiting patiently for him to come out of the helicopter.

   Mr. Lance gets down from the helicopter with two of his guards to both sides, whose eyes turned black and back to normal.

  However Miss. Kirtman wasn’t afraid of them, because she was a Christian.

    Yet she didn’t know that they were demons. Miss. Kirtman stood up to greet Mr. Lance. “Welcome back, Mr. Lance!” Miss. Kirtman greeted.

    “Howdy, Miss. Kirtman? And I am so glad to be back,” Mr. Lance answered.

    As he walked side by side with Miss. Kirtman, his eyes turned into the yellow color and back to normal.

    All four of them went inside the tallest and huge company.

Back to the neighborhood, Exauce was walking around taking a customer’s beautiful carpet which she bought.

Exauce was taking it to Mrs. Bellefonte who lived with her daughter by the name of Rahab.

    Moreover, her daughter is one of the Oracles including her father, but her mother is not, and Exauce doesn’t know that.

    Furthermore, Exauce was known by many neighbors and businessmen.

    He and his little cousin’s grandfather is one of the Oracles too and he as so many expensive ancient things which in the luxurious huge shop.

    Has he head to the Bellefonte’ house, he passed by a mysterious woman sitting on a wood bench who greets.

    “Good morning, mama, how are you doing?” Exauce greeted.

  “Morning, Exauce, my son. How have you been?” The Oracle asked back.

    Exauce turns around to look at her, astonishing about how did she knows his name.

    “Who are you? And how do you know my name?” Exauce asked.

    “Every Oracle knows about you, my son.” She answered.

    “How?” Exauce asked again. “Because you’re a deadly and powerful Terminator, chosen by the Living God,” she proclaimed.

“A Terminator?” Exauce asked. “Yes!” The Oracle woman said.

    “Of what? Of nonsense and women like you?” Exauce asked her again.

    “No, my son. A Terminator is a person who vanquishes Immortals.

    What I meant a human being who slays demons!” The Oracle explained.

    “Demons?” Exauce asked her in doubts. “Yes, Immortals are real,” The Oracle said.

    “Oh great! Now I believe you are saying nonsense!” Exauce snapped at her.

    Ignoring her and walked away, but the moment he turned around to ask who she was, the mysterious woman was nowhere to be found.

“Oh, boy great! Now I know why grownups told kids to never talk to strangers!” Exauce thought out loud as he continued his journey to the Bellefonte.

Arriving before the humongous mansion, knocked on their door, as Rahab opened the door for him to come in.

“Oh, Exauce! Welcome-welcome and mama, Exauce brought our beautiful carpet!” Rahab called.

“Hold your horses, child, I am coming!” Melody answered from the kitchen.

    “So Exauce how are you today?” Rahab asked. “I am fine and you? How is school?” Exauce asked back.

“I am fine and besides I am already graduated from high school and university, silly.

    Anyhow, I am too old for school, I mean twenty years old!” Rahab replied.

“Yeah-yeah, oops, forgot that you’re graduates. Still, you are too young to be a graduate though you are twenty.

    How about it if you go back to school and start over again?” Exauce teased.

    “Why you?” Rahab clenched her fist and was about to punch him when her mother interrupts them.

“Aye, you two. I believe you should get married to each other so that way you can fight all the time!

    And Exauce welcomes to our humble home,” Melody said. “Mama, not you too!” Rahab said nervously.

    “Oh, yes Rahab and Exauce welcomed once,” she responded.

    “Oh, thank you, Mrs. Bellefonte and I believe it time for me to go back!” Exauce said.

    “Go-now?” Rahab asked. “Yes, I am going on a job hunting,” Exauce responded.

    “Job hunting? What are you talking about?” Rahab asked.

    “Later Rahab!” Exauce replied, walked out the door and was out of sight.

Somewhere Mr. Lance and his superior servant Number were standing before the temple of God in Israel.

They were planning to steal Aaron’s Rod from the Ark of the Covenant.

    Aaron’s Rod is endowed with miraculous power, so they need to use it for their evil proposed.

“Mr. Lance, what is your plan?” Number asked. “Well, first of all, I want you to go check if Aaron’s Rod is still in the Ark of the Covenant.

Then I shall tell you what to do!” Mr. Lance proclaimed.

    Number vanishes immediately, without the tourists or citizen realizing it.

    A few hours later, he returned and told Mr. Lance. “Mr. Lance, I believe we have a huge problem!” Number panicked.

    “A huge problem? And first of all calm down, however, what’s the problem?” Mr. Lance asked.

    “Aaron’s Rod is nowhere to be found!” Number said. “Nowhere to be found?” Mr. Lance growled on top of his lungs.

    “Yes, travelers what’s wrong? What are you looking for?” Old Jesse asked when he was passing by them.

    “Umm, nothing at all!” Mr. Lance replied. “Oh, right.

    Yes, God’s temple is marvelous, but except the Ark of the Covenant is hidden somewhere safe.

    From burglars who want to steal it stuff!” Jesse explained.

    “Hum, thank you, Mr. Fortresse for your information.” Mr. Lance answered.

“Ah well, happy to help, Mr. Lance,” old Jesse responded while walking away.

Number suspect something suspicious about him because he thinks old Jesse is hiding something.

    “Mr. Lance Bubonic.” Number called. “Yes, Number?” Bubonic asked.

    “I don’t believe that
