Revelation Road 2: The Sea of Glass and Fire

III

The end of time has come at last.

Long ago in the Holy Scriptures

it was written that the fate of the world

would not be swift and painless.

No, after the faithful have been chosen,

the earth will endure for a while longer.

And in this final time, the souls left behind will suffer,

they will see the earth tum to darkness;

they will see the horsemen ride and the serpent rise.

Men will tum against each other in fear and hate

and all will be lost, unless...

the choice is made to turn away from evil,

the choice is made to forsake the darkness

and look within where there ever burns an eternal flame

and there ever flows a tranquil sea.

Choice: In the final days there will be little hope or joy,

but there will be choice.

You're gonna overcook that bird.

I think the bird will be fine, thank you.

Could you be a doll though and go and set the table for me?

Sure.

Sheriff, we've got a problem. Lightning strikes all over--

Fires breaking out- Eddie Bunson's field's on fire--

reports of earthquakes--

power lines are down on Symmes Creek--

Sheriff, you copy?

Well, hello.

Did you remember to go to the grocery store?

I did not and I didn't remember to go to the pharmacy either.

Hey sweetie.

So it just slipped your mind?

As a matter of fact, it did.

Get out of there.

Come one, we're about to eat dinner.

It's been a big, big news day.

What happened?

Can I have a cup of coffee and relax a minute?

Lynnette, honey, do you have any clean placements?

Oh... Kathy?

Hey Sis.

So...?

So, what?

So you said it was a big news day.

You didn't hear?

There was a robbery at Frank's place.

I heard people were killed.

Really?

How do you know that?

Can't anyone keep their mouth shut?

It's an ongoing investigation.

Frank is fine, his granddaughter too.

It was a biker gang.

Abiker gang?

Okay, shh, I'll start at the beginning.

Okay, this fellow rolls into town,

salesman, name of Josh MacManus.

Normal guy, sort of guy you wouldn't think twice about.

Hey hon.

Hi sweetie, how are you?

When are you coming home?

I'll be home tomorrow I promise.

Will you pray with me?

Whoa.

He stops by Frank's place to do some business.

Check this out: Ultra-high, molecular-weight polyethylene.

it's enough to stop a high-caliber sniper round.

Stop now, “on.

And bam, just like that these three suspects run in there

armed to the teeth.

No beginners either; these guys were killers.

I'll waste you! Hands up!

Fill this bag up with automatics and cash now!

We're in, Boss. Three minutes, tops.

No witnesses.

Sorry partner, you heard the boss.

So this guy Josh, out of nowhere, he swoops in,

takes these guys apart.

It's over in seconds.

The craziest thing I have ever seen.

Well, who is he?

Well, that's the best part. We don't know.

Who are you?

He just sprang into existence bout 5 years ago.

There's no record of him before that at all.

The man is a ghost, probably CIA or military.

You killed those three boys today

and your hands aren't even shaking.

Three of our own died today.

What service were you in, son?

Those that did it are still out there.

And what did they do to you?

But I now know who they are.

There's some things about me that l-

I haven't told you. Things that I...

thought I could contain.

I think you're running,

vying to escape from the things you've done.

Josh, you're not a bad person.

You don't know me.

Tonight we exact our vengeance.

Jesus is a bridge.

A bridge that can take you home.

Blood for blood!

But none of this leaves this table, right girls?

Of course.

No, Ennis, we say grace first.

Of course we do.

Lord Jesus, we thank you for the food we're about to receive.

We pray for Frank, Marion, and Beth.

Protect them, watch over them in this hour of need.

We pray for Josh MacManus, the man you sent to protect them.

Be merciful for all those who have lost their way, Lord.

We pray that everyone will see the light of your glory.

Dad !

What in the world?

Find the tar-- kill the target.

No mercy.

Your life is nothing.

How is he responding?

Kill the target.

Better than expected. We have to stop.

He won't last much longer.

Give him the maximum dose.

You're asking me to murder him.

Find the target.

I'm not asking you.

No fear, no mercy, believe nothing.

Josh! Jesus loves you.

Nothing.

No sign of him.

What do we do now, Boss?

So, what do we do now, Boss?

That's a lot of work, old man.

You sure you're tough enough for that?

I want it to be done proper, you know?

In a church, with a preacher.

We say the words in front of God and Jesus.

That sounds right.

What do we do now, Boss?

We keep ridin‘.

We ride until it's done.

Anyone who can't keep up...

Shoot 'em.

You can't hold us here like prisoners!

There's no food. What are we supposed to eat?

Use the vending machine.

There's no power and we don't have any money.

Nobody leaves 'till get my money!

All of you, get back to your room!

Hey, where do you think you're going?

Get back, nobody leaves!

All of you, get back in.

I said nobody leaves.

Nobody leaves ‘tiH get my money.

Hey, get back.

Don't!

I'm leaving.

H you wanna stop me, shoot me.

You think I- you thinkl won't?

Look, I don't know what happened last night,

but I have a feeling the pomrefs not coming back on.

You are a thief.

You're all thieves!

You need to stop worrying about money

and start thinking about your family, people you love.

You even know if they're okay?

\‘m mming y ou‘.!
