CHAPTER NINE

(You don't have to read this chapter. Believe me, it's about 60% unnecessary, not really concerned with the important things in this story. It's just Nathan Pov. You can skip to the next chapter if you wish)

I watched as Aurora stood up with her friends; Victoria and a guy I don't even know. You can't expect me to possibly know all their name. I looked down at my food then sighed. Unlike my friends, I wasn't a foodie or one who eats much. I stood up too, ready to go for class which was Bible knowledge class.

Bible knowledge class is not a class I really enjoy or despise either. To me, it's just a mysterious story class which gets confusing and interesting sometimes. I climbed up the stairs three time's. I don't even know why the class is so far. Guess I'm already used to it anyway.

I walked down the hallway as I viewed Mia walk to Aurora. I quicken my steps as I moved closer to them. Mia was a little reserve; the quiet type who don't like talking much. Some people feels she's not so intelligent to contribute anything when talking but I feel, actually I know, she's more of the observer not the talkative. I was just two step behind them so I could hear what they were saying.

"Hi." Mia greeted.

"Hey." Aurora responded, giving a little smile that Mia returned.

"First day in Bible knowledge class?"

"Yeah."

Nothing was heard again. Like I said, Mia is not the talkative type and I'm guessing the same for Aurora. And yes, Mia is the owner's daughter; Mr. Scott only child.

We all walked to the class and I took a seat before them. Aurora and Mia took a seat beside me. The 'crazy Miss Emily; the Bible class teacher', like student used to call her was ready to start her teaching most people referred to as 'madness.' Unfortunately, Bible class was one of the necessary subject and once it's picked, it can't be dropped or ditched. I looked around and noticed some students were eager to hear her teaching while some were bored. Lizzy and Mira, as usual had a blank expression. Alex was always happy, Ethan looked bored and Aurora? I wasn't sure of her expression.

Miss Emily showed us one of her regular smile trying to say, 'teaching is about to begin.'

"Today, we will be looking at the history of Lucifer or should I say, history of satan the devil." She paused then smiled again.

"We know about the triune or the Trinity. God the Father, God the son and God the holy Spirit. They're all in one because of their agreement and we are also aware that they're the Creators of the world. They created the angels including lucifer and all things. But first, we might as well look at Ezekiel 28: 12-17 in the Bible."

"You were the seal of perfection, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty. You were Eden, the garden of God; every precious stone was your covering: The sardius, topaz, and......"

A girl read.

"Thanks Gabriella. Lucifer means light bearer. He was in fact the chief among all angels. He was one of the three archangels, the other two being Gabriel and Michael. He was the head of all archangels and commander of all other angels. But what happened next?" Miss Emily asked.

"He started a rebellion." Ethan spoke up.

"Actually the original rebellion was initiated by two Angels with great power who were the closest to Lucifer. Leviathan and Belial told Lucifer that he should be God. They told him he was as perfect as God and instead of taking orders from God, he should be running things in the universe......"

I closed my eyes then sighed. I felt like having a good rest that means sleeping but the sleep never comes; no matter how hard I try. I keep having this annoying feeling that tells me I am unsafe and I need help. I know it feels weird but that's just the feeling I keep getting.

It took me a few minutes to realize that miss Emily was still teaching.

"Nothing, it's just interesting to note that God did not interfere in their rebellious plot. He allowed them." Mira said.

Miss Emily just returned the smile.

"From there, we all knew what happened. Angel Michael and other angels fought against Lucifer and his angels. Satan was defeated....."

I stole a quick glance at Aurora. I don't know how I know but I just know that she's different. Yeah, everyone is different but her different is different. I don't know the right word to use but she's actually kind of strange. I looked at her face that was so engrossed and concentrated on what miss Emily was saying. Then again, I realized she was still teaching.

"You just said, sexual intercourse between fallen angels and women brought about gigantism but in biology, over secretion of the pituitary gland and thyroid gland causes gigantism and otherwise, retarded growth." A blonde haired girl spoke up.

"Angel there is something called mutation and I know you're familiar with that word. It must have caused a change in human body system. Well that's not even a problem compared to this." Miss Emily paused. "Satan has observed humankind for centuries; he knows how to attack us easily?" She questioned, reading from a paper.

"I'd say he got Eve easily." The blonde haired, Angel said.

Miss Emily just smiled.

"He knows God much better than any Christan in this world could ever know him for he lived with God thousands of years?"

"Well I'd say, God is in me." Aurora responded.

Miss Emily smiled again.

"Satan and his allies knows the Bible very well?"

"And I'd say, the Bible is just like a story. The Bible ain't even complete. The most important thing is to have the holy Spirit." I replied.

"Good." Miss Emily said briefly. "Well then I still have questions that might get you people pondering, wondering and thinking."

"We will love to hear them." Rita said.

"Sure Rita, the Bible said Satan was casted to earth. So is earth really the habitat of the devil?"

Silence!

"Hell was created before Satan was casted down. Why was there a place called hell?"

Silence!

"They overcame him by the blood....."

The question session continued.

I wasn't really surprised by miss Emily question; for I knew her too well. But the fact that you don't have an answer to any of the questions was the most annoying and disturbing. I looked at everyone face and all o could see was confusion, shock and 'what the?'.

"Well listen to this everyone. What is your question? What is your religion? Who is your God? I don't have an answer to these, remember you're the answer. Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting, get understanding. Have a good day." Miss Emily said and walked out.

I stood up to live with Alex and Ethan. As we walked down the hallway, we noticed Aurora walking alone, so we joined her.

"Hey." Ethan spoke up.

"Hi, who was that?" She asked, referring to the teacher.

"Oh, miss Emily." Alex replied.

"Oh, okay." She replied, releasing a long breath.

"What? You're....?" Ethan asked.

"Nothing, love her teaching."

"Okay then."

"Found any of element of truth in what she was saying?" Ethan asked again.

"The fact that God is moving, Satan is moving but man is not." She stated.

"Wow......" I said, a fact that what she said is right.

We continued walking and talking till we parted ways.
