Left Behind- The Kids: Battling The Commander Chs. 4&5 Conrad and the Commander, Lionel’s Run

The next morning a different guard returned for Conrad. Darrion had been gone all night.

“Don’t believe anything he says,” Mr. Stein yelled as the man led Conrad away.

Melinda and Felicia waited outside the interview room and scowled when Conrad sat beside them.

“I wanted to tell you guys what was up, but I didn’t want to blow my cover,” Conrad said.

“What are you talking about?” Melinda asked.

“The commander put me down there so I could listen to those to talk,” he said. “I got what he wanted.”

“I don’t believe you,” Felicia said. “You’re one of them.”

“I was just as surprised as you when Lionel turned up dirty.”

The girls turned away.

“I need your help,” Conrad said, moving where he could see them. “I’m going to catch Lionel, the girl, and that other guy.”

The door opened. Commander Blanca came outside. “What is this, Graham?”

“Commander, Sir, I figured since I was innocent, you put me in with the others to spy. It worked.”

The commander cleared his throat. “I didn’t. I mean… what did you find out?”

“Darrion’s definitely one of them, sir,” Conrad answered.

“We’ve had someone talking to her all night,” the commander said. “She says she doesn’t know them.”

“If it’s all right with you, I’d like to see the look on her face when I tell you the whole story,” Conrad said.

The commander motioned the three inside. Darrion looked exhausted. Her eyes were puffy and red. The commander probably talked about her parents, Conrad thought.

Conrad knew this would be the tough part. If he could convince the commander he wasn’t partners with the others, he had a chance to get Darrion and Mr. Stein out.

Left Behind – The Kids: Judgment Day Chs 9&10 The Plan, Springing Vicki

Vicki may be given the death sentence from Commander Blanca tomorrow morning or she could be found not guilty. Blanca is the whole judge and jury. Given everything that Commander Blanca said when he faced Vicki, the death sentence is almost certain. Her surprising ally has been the late Chaya’s father who has tried to defend Vicki before the Commander. But he has said that Vicki is mentally ill. That statement from Mr. Stein infuriated Vicki. She is now back in her cell and Chaya’s dad has been allowed to go into her cell to talk with her. Lionel and his friend Chad who is a new Christian, are standing outside the courtroom still pretending to be members of the Morale Monitors. Meanwhile, Judd has been reading from the website of Christian Rabbi Tsion Ben Judah and realizes that far greater horror is coming quickly from God’s judgments on Earth. But there is one good thing ahead – the prophecy of Joel repeated by Peter in Acts two that the Holy Spirit is about to be released on all flesh. Ray picks the story up at this point.

Vicki was taken to her cell. Mr. Stein followed and was allowed inside.

“What happens now?” Vicki said.

“Your guess is as good as mine,” Mr. Stein answered. “sounds like the commander will decide between now and tomorrow morning.”

“Do you think there’s a chance—?”

“If he believes you were a little off in the head,” Mr. Stein said, “he might just send you to a reeducation camp.”

“And if not?”

“I don’t want to think about it.”

“I’m not afraid to die for the gospel,” Vicki said.

Mr. Stein shook his head. “I’ll never understand why fanatics say things like that. You think it impresses me. It doesn’t. There are many people would give their lives for something foolish.”

“The point isn’t whether I would die for my faith,” Vicki said. “The main thing is whether what I put my faith in is true.”

“You sound like my daughter.”

“If they said it was illegal to talk about God,” Vicki said, “I would die giving you that message. But I’d rather live to see you accept your Messiah. That’s what Chaya was praying for all along.”

“They’re coming for you tomorrow morning,” Mr. Stein said, “and the best you can hope for is to go to a reeducation camp. Why would you be concerned about me when you’re facing that?”

“Lionel said it best.”

“He was against you.”

“No, I understood. He said he knew I’d get what I deserved. Because of Jesus, I have the hope of heaven. The Global Community can’t take that away.”
