*The alarm goes off, and Blanca rolls over, and turns it off. She gets up and feels around on the ground next to her. She finds a candle, and matchbox. She strikes the match, and lights the candle.*
(Blanca) "Ok everyone, let's get up...."
*Everyone else starts to wake up. It's still very dark in the church. Al had a watch with the correct time and date, so it was decided to set the alarm every day for 8am, so at least they can maintain their sanity, in this now insane world.*
*Dona turns over, and starts to feel around for more candles and matches. She feels something soft next to her, so she lightly grabs it and pokes it...*
(Alberto) "Hahaha. Dona, that tickles....stop."
(Dona) "hmmmmm, perhaps I should remember that, for the future."
(Alberto) "Hmmph, if any of us have a future."
*Daniella finds more candles and matches, and lights a few candles. They are in the basement of the church now. They've moved all their supplies to the basement. Once Aurora told everyone that she, Daniella, and Blanca found them by seeing the lights glowing through the stained glass, they all decided to move to the more secure basement, which would conceal the glow from the lit candles. They all found a large amount of canned food and bottled water, as well as the supplies that Blanca, Daniella, and Aurora bought with them. Tensions are running high. They are safe, but feel useless for the moment, Aurora and Daniella more than the others.*
(Aurora) "We shouldn't be staying here. We should be out there, looking for our guide."
(Daniella) "I agree. I think the two of us should leave."
(Blanca) "No. It's not safe......."
(Alberto) "you'd have to be crazy to leave here."
(Aurora) "We need to find our guide, so that we can get to the past and make things right again."
(Daniella) "We were told to help who we could, and wait for our guide."
(Dona) "Look at this situation, this way. You were found by somene who told you your guide was a witch named "Brenda" and along the way, you helped Blanca, and ourselves."
(Fr Jack) "She's right. This church offers you safety. The demons and vampires can't get in, and since people don't generally live in church, the zombies are ignoring us. However, witches are not affected by churches. Brenda should be able to find you and assist you when she is ready. Don't throw yourselves into the path of danger. You may be the Earth's hope of making things right again."
*Daniella gets up and leaves the group, going off on her own. Fr. Jack follows her.*
(Fr. Jack) "Is there something you need to talk about?"
(Daniella) "Oh Fr......I wish.....I ...I."
*Daniella quietly begins to cry.*
(Fr. Jack) "It's ok dear. Tell me what's troubled you so."
(Daniella) "When we filled you in on what was happening, I told you of the "Chosen Ones" and about Carlos. He was my father. I had never known that until just recently. We were begining to build a relationship, and then he was killed before my eyes.......I hesitated to talk to him, because I didn't know him. I wish I was able to tell him I loved him."
(Fr Jack) "My child, with the grace of God, and the help of your guide, you may still get that chance."
*In another corner of the room.*
(Blanca) "I'm glad you are not leaving Aurora."
(Aurora) "I'm not glad I'm staying. I think we need to be out there, doing something."
(Blanca) "I'm not surprised."
(Aurora) "Why do you say that?"
(Blanca) "Think about it. Your father is responsible for what is happening. You want to fix it badly. As for Daniella, she's part slayer/chosen one from her father. She feels the urge to help."
(Aurora) "I hadn't thought of that."
(Blanca) "I'm glad you are staying for now......I'd like to get to know you better."
(Aurora) "Oh....I'm surprised....and I would like to get to know you as well."
*In the last corner of the church....*
(Dona) "Alberto.....I wish I could touch you now....."
(Alberto) "You already did....."
(Dona) "Haha! Tickling doesn't count....I need something more...intimate."
(Alberto) "I hear ya. Perhaps tonight we can sneak upstairs......"
(Dona) "Al!!!!! In a church, while we are with a priest?!?!?!?!?!?!?"
(Alberto) "I just thought....."
(Dona) "Haha, well think again."
(Alberto) "Well, how is this?"
*Alberto moves over, and places his arms around Dona....she leans into him, and relaxes.*
(Dona) "Thank you Al....it feels wonderful to be in your arms...."
*Meanwhile....outside the church, while our remaining friends are finding comfort, havoc continues to reign. Demons and vampires continue to fill the darkened skies. Zombies mindlessly stalk the streets, occasionally finding a foolish human who ventured outside. One of the demons outside is Onji......Onji is searching for any of the people who associated with the "Chosen Ones", wondering if they managed to survive the new world so far, and if they would be able to help Brenda get everything back to normal.*
