the end of days page 34 by ric gustafson
Carlo and Rory approached the steps of the Temple. Behind them were two soldiers dragging a huge pig. As they neared the entrance, an old man stopped them.
" You dare blaspheme God". An old man shook a bony finger in Carlo's face.
" Your God not mine". He pushed the old man away. " Who are you anyway?".
The old man smiled. " People call me John".
" Well John". He began to walk up some steps. " I have important things to do right now".
As Carlo and Rory walked past the Court of Women and the Court of Men, some priests were huddled in their path.
Carlo pointed a finger at them. " Will you bow down and worship me?".
The priests replied in unison. " No".
Carlo pointed to a guard. " Shoot them".
When Carlo and Rory reached the veil of the Holy of Holies, Carlo took a knife and sliced the veil in two. Then Carlo took the knife and slashed the pig's throat. Blood was splattered all over the altar of the Holy of Holies.
Carlo walked to a nearby window. He looked down below to a crowd of followers. More sores were on Rory and Carlo's followers.
" Follow me" yelled Carlo.
Rory and the crowd yelled back. " We will follow you forever".
