The Prophecy 3: The Ascent Page #3

I do every moment

of my existence.

Before you were born, I tried

to rip you from your mama's womb.

I failed.

The Sword of Heaven...

could not still

this tiny mortal heart.

How come. ?

It's not being here

that perplexes me.

It's the not knowing.

How come you ?

What could you mean ?

Do you know who ?

- Nothing.

- Clearly the facts say otherwise.

You're the Word.

Whatever it is you're destined

to commit upon this Earth,

it's His will,

it's what He wants.

No angel,

however powerful,

can be anything

but the messenger.

Danyael, you're a message,

and now...

for the first time in a gazillion years,

l get to know what it is.

I get to know

what that message is.

Okay, I did my time

in Sunday school.

If this Pyriel's like

the Second Coming or something,

how come I don't

know anything about him ?

Maybe you just

chose the wrong religion.

I dreamed of you.

I'm Mary.

I know the enemy ghost.

Last night I dreamed

the end of one history...

and the beginning

of another.

The darkness was met by the coming

of a great warrior.

I dreamed ofyou.

You look smaller

in person.

% Together

Flying for life %

Tell me something.

Do you still

love your God ?

The truth.

As much

as He loves me.

Say, ma'am, I wonder if you

could tell me how to get to Gila Flats.

Yeah, it's, um... It's over

on the Hualapai reservation.

I don't suppose you could

be just a tad more specific,

Madge.

Where's your friend ?

Oh, you

have a long memory.

Rachel is, uh...

under the weather. She's bedridden.

But I'll tell her

you inquired.

- What do you want ?

- Everything.

But to begin, I

need some coffee, fresh-brewed,

Sweet N Low,

non-dairy creamer,

small grape fruit juice,

three eggs, yolks firm, not hard,

bacon, crisp, hash browns,

dry wheat toast, butter on the side...

and a portion of your

famous blackberry jam.

It's gonna

be a long day.

Remember, we're here to stop him,

that's all. And nobody gets hurt.

- Go up the hill and turn.

- I suppose you caught his scent.

Something like that.

There.

You've done well.

I'm proud of you.

- Do not lose him.

- I won't !

- Okay. Now what ?

- Go faster.

What's that. ?

lgnore it.

- Don't let up.

- I won't !

Turn left.

Hard left.

I don't see him.

He's there.

Jesus !

- Faster.

- We'll run him over !

- Exactly.

- I can't do that !

I told you

what's at stake here.

That wasn't the deal.

Nobody was supposed to get hurt.

How did you think we were going to

stop him, Magdalena ? With a prayer ?

I don't know,

but not like this !

He's almost at the destination.

We have to kill him.

- We have no choice.

- I do.

- I'm warning you. - Whoeveryou are,

whateveryou are, I'm not afraid ofyou.

You should be.

She's still

in there, Danyael.

Dying, I suspect.

Not that

that really matters.

So, this is what

it must feel like...

to be human.

Not quite.

Maggie.

- Danyael.

- I'm here.

Look behind you. - What ?

Aaah !

Aaah !

This is what it feels like

to be human.

- Bring her back.

- I can't.

- You have to.

- What are you afraid of ?

- Nothing.

- Why so desperate to get her back ?

'Cause you know what Heaven's

gonna be like for her...

if you don't finish

what you start.

Are you an angel ?

Once upon a time.

- I don't want to die.

- No.

Who are you ?

Gabriel.

Hold my hand, Gabriel.

Please.

Oh, my God.

I'm so afraid.

Don't be afraid.

- Where is Danyael ?

- He's fighting...

for you.

The child

of divine fornication.

What do you want

from me ?

I have come

to help the monkeys perish...

by mutual slaughter...

and then sow the Earth

with a better seed.

Genocide.

It happens

now and then.

Turn away, nephalim.

Blight not...

and keep warm.

F*** you.

There is no such thing

as destiny.

You above all

should know that.

What am I doing here ?

The one thing your kind

excels at...

dying.

Aaah !

It's not a mindless,

indifferent,

blind universe, Danyael.

It never was.

Get used to it.

Shh.

ln the end there's still

The Word everywhere...

in Heaven and its angels,,

the Earth and the stars,

even in the darkest part

of the human soul.

It was there

The Word burned brightest.

And for a moment,

I was blinded
