Matthew 24:3-24:8
3And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?
4And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
5For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
6And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
7For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
8All these are the beginning of sorrows.

The Conviction
<><><><><><><><>(§)<><><><><><><><>
The TV was on as loud as it could be as Reverend sat motionless and seemingly a consciousless zombie in front of it. The news was on talking of the bombing in Israel and how it had come about and what was taking place at those very moments. Reverend pondered the events taking place and immediately remembered that a war would eventually erupt over there before end times. He also began to think upon the tsunami that had hit that country not to long ago and the pesitilence it had caused, "earthquakes in divers places", he thought about that and how the earthquake under the ocean had caused it to happen. I thought of all this with a faint heart because he himself had fallen so far away from the faith now and it seemed that the end, Rapture, was drawing nearer and nearer. He needed to talk with his Mom and Sister again and see how they were and make sure that they had seen the news, though he doubted they could have missed it honestly. His thoughts traveled into the dreary world that had become his life now, he had become a recluse. He needed to talk to them to make sure that they were ok and to make sure that he was ok as well. His match coming up had little relevance at the moment mostly because so much had happened and he had much more to worry about then a couple of wrestlers in a federation that didn't seem to understand what he was trying to do anyways. He knew now that he had to contact them despite what his new "friend" kept telling him, what did he know anyways if it weren't for him and his ideas the last couple of matches would not have been losses. The Reverend decides this is where he takes his stand and makes his own decisions upon his own life.

The TV was blaring and then in a moment with a flick of the button Reverend muted the TV. He made his way up out of his chair and sat upon his bed next to the phone. He reached for it but with a hesitation that kept him from actually grabbing it in any way at all. As the perspiration from the heat wave built up upon his head, sweat beads started trailing down his face in a frenzy. He motioned his hand and wiped them clear for the moment but soon enough they would be back to start up all over again. Then as he had intended he latched onto the phone tightly and slowly pulled it up to his ear as he started to dial the number he heard a voice.
Shadow: What exactly do you think you are doing, did I not warn you of such actions already, have you learned nothing?
The smooth and sure words sounded so calm and soothing but Reverend do of their true sadistic meanings. He kept dialing attempting to ignore the rants of his new found "friend."
Shadow: How dare you try to siphon me out of your thoughts, after all I have done for you, have you no conscious!?
Reverend breaking his silence continued to dial the number and it started to ring, as it did it was almost a euphoric feeling like he was finally breaking free of the grip that had ahold of him and was causing him so much disaray in his life.
Reverend: No, I thinks it because I have a conscious that has lead me to this point! Who are you to judge me, your advice first lost me my match to MOD and then your advice cost me my match against Alex and Calvin. What do you I owe for all this, a thanks for costing me my friends, my family, and my career! No More!
The receiver was soon picked up on the other end and a gentle and sincere voice came over. Reverend knew immediately that it was his Mom and that though he had not spoken to her she would surely welcome this phone call as much as he did in his mind.
Teresa: Hello.
Reverend: Mom?
With a burst of energy his Mom began to talk with such joy after realizing it was her baby boy on the other end and she had not spoken to him for so long and knew that he must need her.
Teresa: Sweetie! I'm so happy you called, how have you been, are you ok, do you need anything, you know if you need anything at all I'm here for you!
Reverends eyes began to fill up and turned wet within mere seconds of her voice, tears then began to trickled down his face. One of them hit his mouth and he could taste the salty wetness. He then threw his arm across his face quickly and his sleeve absorbed as much as it could before being dropped back to to his waste side.
Reverend: I love you so much Mom and I've missed your voice even more then you could ever know. I promise that I will call you back later but for right now I must go. You helped me more then you could know right now. I love you bye.
Teresa: Please call back soon, I love you too sweetie, bye.

Decision
<><><><><><><><>(§)<><><><><><><><>
With a click the conversation had ended and though in his mind it was a small step it still was a step in the right direction because with that bit of acknowledge meant he was one step closer to his goals. Taking control of his life and getting ready for his match at SuperBrawl were the two biggest concerns he had at the moment. Realizing also that a sure way to get ready for SuperBrawl would be to win this match at Odium against Wayne and Justin. He could use all the practice he could get right now and that would certainly be worth his time. Justin though cocky and arrogant, still posed a challenge for him and he knew that just a bit of antagonizing upon this young boy he could have him right where he wants him. Wayne was a different story all together, he would need to concentrate most of his effort upon him and make sure that he didnt let him get to far out of his line of sight. This match would surely be a bit tricky and though the Reverend was a bit unsure of the outcome he was confident that with some prayer and guidance from God he could overcome these men and move onto bigger things. Though with all that on his mind he had not forgotten the person who would surely be upset with him and would cause him the most trouble mentally. The Reverend decided that it was time he got a little fresh air, being locked up in his apartment for as long as he had surely was doing him more damage then could and he could also take the time to rethink his situation and come up with a strategy for victory in his triple threat match up. Though with all that on his mind he still could not shake the what was happening in the world and how it directly effected him. The end was surely on his way and he needed to be ready for it.

The dense air was almost to much as it caused breathing to be a hassle for even the healthiest of people. Reverend moved quietly and slowly threw the woods hoping for some peace and that he did not find. A shout came from behing and alerted that he was about to be harrased for doing what he knew was right.
Shadow: What the Hell do you think you are doing!? I thought that we had a deal and part of that deal stated that you would do as I say and I would help you get ready for SuperBrawl. You broke that deal!
Reverend: I broke nothing, you have done nothing but stand in my way from the beginning and you have no clue what you are talking about most of the time you just rant on and on about how great I use to be. News Flash! You have caused be to lose every match since I have met you and quite honestly I am tired of it and I have alot more to deal with then just you right now!
Shadow: Oh you mean like you pathetic family and friends? Your a fool and you have done nothing except complain since I have met you. Your insolence have caused you to lose your matches not my advice. Your petty ignorance and wanting to talk to your family has made you weak at heart and mind and will soon eventually be your downfall altogether, that I promise you.
Reverend ignored him and kept walking and thinking about Odium and what exactly he would do to defeat both men without getting injured or anything before his big match at SuperBrawl. He knew he had to stay alert and he also knew that if things got to out of hand he would have no way to get control again so the key was keeping them subdued untill he could measure one up and finish the match off.
Shadow: Your making a mistake turning your back on me! I swear this is not the end of this, I will be back and I will see to it that you obey and do as you first started, I will not be denied my time!

Sermon to Tyme and McGurk
<><><><><><><><>(§)<><><><><><><><>
Ah yes, my brothers we shall have our day to dance with one another among the masses and soon you shall se exactly what I am talking about. This world is but temporary and the only true meaning of why we are here is to worship and praise the Lord almighty and he shall deliver us from the evils of this world. Untill that time comes and I am lifted from this sin ridden planey, I want you to know that both of you are in my prayers. I will pray for yours souls and hope that threw what I say and the beating that I shall inflict upon your bodies at Odium, you will realize the errors of your ways and you will get saved and be with me in eternal happiness. You see Tyme, all those things that you own and all that precious fame and money will do you know good come judgement day for the Lord says that the only thing that shall help you is being born again and doing what he asks of you. Instead you sit around reveling in the evils of this world and your materialistic and worldly goods will get you a ticket to a place where you are more then welcome and the furnace is always going. Eternal damnation will be your destination unless you repent now and save yourselves for the end is near. And you McGurk with your life all lead in ignorance and intoxication coming and going as it pleases, you too will find yourself at the same end as Tyme unless you heed my warning. For all the alcohol in the world will not subdue the burning that come from the fiery pit of hell, you have a family you need to consider as well fore you will be judged for not doing as you should for them. My brothers I can help you if only you would come to be and ask for salvation and a chance to live on eternally. The end is near and for you two it may earlier then expected when we step in the ring at the next Odium. I have more problems to deal with them a couple of pathetic athletes hoping to make a name for themselve by beating a man that will be main eventing SuperBrawl. I hope you listen to my words loud and clear because when we step in that ring there will be no more words but there will be plenty of silent understanding. AMEN!

I did my best to come up with what I thought was a descent rp though reading through it I realize that its awful in my opinion. oh well it will have to do till I can shake of the writers block. Comments and Critism are always welcome and appreciated. Thanx bunches.
