Alex and the family will be flying to Bali today. His mother has pa.s.sed away a few year back, so the family who will come to Bali will be; his father, younger brother, Hendrik, older brother Jimmy, wife and 2 teen kids, then Devita"s parents, her younger sister Vonny, younger brother Victor and his girlfriend Rea. All total group of 15 people. Actually Devita"s have an older sister, but she and her family after multiple persuasion decided not to come to Bali, Alex ended up just leaving them tickets, if they later on decided to change their mind, but if they refuse, Alex just cant force them, he cant guarantee their safety in Bali anyway.In the morning while everyone still busy packing, Alex have one more visit to go, its only five minute drive from his place, a local church that he often went with his family before all the chaos began. But currently he have mixed feeling about coming to this place. In his past, when the disaster came, many survivor turn to their faith, but they were disappointed, bad turn to worst, its like h.e.l.l on earth, death everywhere. Alex also loose his faith when his family died. Somehow this place now feel kinda unfamiliar to him. But the reason he come to church today actually to come meet one of his closest friend, Theo.
Alex has known Theo for almost 20 years, they went to college together in Australia, Theo is one of the smartest person he know, Top student, scholars.h.i.+p, graduate medical school at 21, then work as researcher in one of the world top medical company, but a few years later he quits, turn to his faith and become a priest. In his past life, Alex often came to him for council.
The church are not big, it can sit around 300 people, Alex went inside, there are group of young kids singing in one of the room, Although the air is very peaceful, in his mind are only the thought of survival, such as; if this church will be st.u.r.dy enough to hold the undead attack, or thinking about how many of those kids will survive the first week.
There, in one of the small room he knock and welcome by a friendly face, Theo the Priest. A tall, but skinny guy in his thirties, he currently brewing hot tea. "Hei Alex try one of this cup, this is a fresh tea from the mountain, its good for your health" he then just went on and on about tea and many things. Alex always admire him, Theo is the type of person who always find joy in everything he does. Its been 10 years since he last met him, while for Theo its only last week, so its feel a bit weird for Alex". Theo then notice something different with his friend; "Whats wrong? you seems different today"
Alex just casually ask a question "What does the scripture said about the End of days?" Alex thought if there are some connection between the world old relics with the Doomsday Pillars, there might be something he can relate to in the Bible. "Just the short version please" Alex added
Theo grumbled, he already thought a full text scripture as reference "There are few version from different denomination, but in short most agree that in Judgement Days as we Christian called it, is the Day of the second coming of G.o.d, all people will be judged, some will be punish, and some will be chosen"
Alex tried to relate with what he experience on his past life, he wonder between the people died from disease or the survival who died from Monster, which one is the one punish, and which one is chosen.. "what a funny joke.. he thought in his mind"... He then asked again "does the scripture hint when this judgement days will happen?"
"the scripture said that n.o.body in the world will know when it will come, the judgement days will come like a thief in the night, unexpected"
Alex smile secretly in his mind he laughed "i know exactly when it will happen, its in 26 days.!" Alex stop the discussion, normally he can argue with him for hours, but his time is short, so he gave Theo what he came here to do, a ticket to Bali dated a few days before the end of month, Alex force him to come, he even promise that he will do charitable work for the church if Theo come.
Last objectives is done, Alex then took the family to the Airport then fly to Bali, in the plane he was thinking back about what Leo said, he then reminded with something, "But, who is the grey blur figure who talk to me during the transition, can he be G.o.d?"
