Twisted Minds
The craft disappeared as we stepped away from it. I reached out to make sure it was still there. It was.
"Guess you have to be careful where you leave this thing. Let's see, we're in Lot C row 4."
Flicker just rolled her eyes and I chuckled.
I followed after her, as she approached the deserted looking building that lay ahead of us. It really was cold and I was looking forward to getting inside, even if I wasn't looking forward to what I might find.
It hadn't been so cold on the flight here, which had been heated in more than one way. I already missed the feel of Flicker's soft lips, even though I'd been kissing her for hours. She looked back at me and gave me a rich smile.
I shook my head, so help me I was going to pry these discs off my head with a knife if I had to!
Flicker's disposition changed the closer we got to the buildings and I began to feel the anxiety levels of her thoughts rise sharply. I couldn't decipher what she thought like she could me, but I could tell how she was feeling and it wasn't good.
"I love you." I said softly.
She stopped and gave me a tremulous smile that had heartfelt gratitude in it.
"Hey, if this place is bothering you so much how about we stop and pray about it?" I volunteered.
Flicker gave the buildings a long look and then nodded her head. I pulled her head down to my shoulder and I spoke into her glorious hair near her ear. "Lord please make our mission a success. Whatever fears or threats this place may yet hold I pray that you would release us from them and strengthen us to do the task at hand in Jesus's name amen."
Flicker pulled back crying from me, but she was smiling. She kissed me sweetly and then said, "You just saved me!"
"How did I do that?" I asked puzzled.
"Your walk with God. All your memories are available to me and I confess that I've been pillaging through them. Over and over I've seen how much God means to you and how your specialness and confidence is a direct result of your faith. I want that. So I asked your Jesus to do that for me and now I'm His too! It's wonderful!"
I hugged her to me, "Yes it is!"
We stayed like that for a long moment, until I knew we had to get going, but I hated to end this special time. "Alright my dear, time to invade hell."
