The Prophecy Page #3

Synopsis: "Some people lose their faith because Heaven shows them too little," says Thomas Daggett. "But how many people lose their faith because Heaven showed them too much?" Daggett nearly became a priest; now he's a cop. He may want to put religion behind him, but one morning a weird, eyeless, hermaphroditic corpse turns up. Suddenly he is on a path that will put him right in the middle of a war in Heaven. And once again, Heaven will show him too much: gore, blood, charred flesh, living corpses and much worse. Even more central to the heavenly war effort is a young girl. This American Indian child has something Gabriel wants. And Gabriel is willing to kill her and anyone in his path - or even reanimate a corpse or two - to get it.

I could bring something.

That would be very nice,

Mary.

Okay. Bye.

# Bears love the honey #

# Honey loves the bees #

# We belong together

like monkeys in the trees #

# I'll always love ya #

# We're stuck like glue #

# I wanna be

your best friend too #

# I wanna be

your best friend too ##

Gee, Jerry, you look like sh*t.

- Leave me alone, Gabriel.

- Soon, pal, soon.

- Come here.

- Go away.

Come here.

You still got a spark of life

left in you.

- F*** you.

- Hmm.

I want you

to do something for me.

- Why don't you just let me die?

- Soon.

Honest.

Don't start.

You know how I hate that.

I'm so tired.

I'm so goddamn tired.

Watch the profanity.

One more favor.

- What?

- I want you to get something for me.

Some personal effects the cops took

from the Gable Apartments...

on Seventh Street.

It'll be sitting in a property room

on San Julian.

And you just want me to waltz right

in there like this, right?

Go in during

a shift change.

- You got the name the stuff is under?

- John Doe.

- Oh. Why doesn't that surprise me?

- Number 12.

Bus fare.

7-8-25, code six.

105 North Vann, route 52.

- Hey.

- Hey.

Final spectrometry came back on that

fancy Bible of yours.

If that new chapter's

a forgery, it's an old one.

Carbon dating checks out

second century.

That would make this Bible

the oldest in existence then.

So don't lose it.

How's the translation

going?

Well, from what I can

make out so far,

this thing seems to be mostly about

angels and the second war in Heaven.

A second angel war?

Over what?

Us. Humans.

It says when God gave us a soul

some angels became jealous...

and they started this war.

Really? You translated all of that?

Well, when did it end?

It doesn't say it did.

It does prophesy a little, though.

Come on.

Let me show you something.

It's been a while here,

so bear with me.

"And there shall be

a dark soul,

and this soul will eat other dark

souls and so become their inheritor.

This soul will not rest in an angel

but a man, and he shall be a warrior. "

Nice.

Very nice.

Let me ask you something.

Why wouldn't God just

get rid of the bad angels?

I don't know. I don't know.

Maybe He can't.

- Maybe He won't.

- Come on.

Don't be so serious.

It's not like all this is real.

Well, what's in the basement

is real.

And according to this,

it's got a name.

Remember that symbol

on his neck?

According to some ancient

Hebrew cabalists,

that's angelic script

for an angel named Uziel.

Are you saying we have

a dead angel on ice?

Baseball Game,

Faint]

Ball three.

- I'm gonna need to see a pass.

- Shh.

- Yeah.

- Stop it.

- Dork!

- It's over. Back to the real world of learning.
