Nicholas Grows a Saint

   
   Here Lies a Tale, Of The Test against The Will of Evil. They Say 'There is no Darkness if you disperse Light.' Here Lies a Story, of when The Light is what helps Guide Within.

Laihla was a town that was off the grid per say, They didn't have the technology that connected them with the rest of the world and for this it was a paradise; It was a safe-haven for Some, Others; A peaceful Place to get none other than Lost in the trance of Tranquility;
 So full of harmony, you would of thought it was Whoville from Afar. Children running amongst one another, singing and laughing- With not a care in the world. Adults in The Community Center to ensure the safety and well-beings of others to prevent any disasters. The town was full of such beautiful people, it was more of an Oligarchy of Adults just to let all the Children run and roam free, and do what they please until they were of age of being an adult for their service to take care of the next generation of Children that were of their own, for them to grow and do the same.

The School systems were ran differently, Children didn't go to school until they were 12 years old and stayed in school until 18. Of Course the Children always had an hour session each day to learn Language, And Math. Education revolved around the Ethics of the town and Community Service that was needed to be done, The people were insisted upon gaining and building their own relative knowledge in the Libraries around the community, for their own Self-interest. For the town knew you would fail being forced to learn something you weren't interested in.

   It was upon a time, One Tragic year ..it was an awfully harsh, Brutal Winter; Ones With freezing winds that feel like Razor Blades skimming the skin covering your Cheekbones. Unlike other Towns, Laihla had no regular power heating, houses were heated manually through a Wood-Furnace, Adults of the town cut and split wood with their bare hands.

"Mommy, I am so cold- it is a terribly cold winter,"Words Shivered out by, Nicholas

"Well, This is what we were given, & Son, If I were to teach you anything, It would be that we are blessed to be here,
   Jesus turned water into wine, Take this water of life that we were blessed to experience, and turn it into Wine." Softly Spoken by Tona

 And, In that moment of time Nicholas, Didn't know due to his young age, but that memory was now forever embedded within the back of his mind, Which will forever guide his decisions. For What Nicholas' Mothers word said, Warmed him up, he was no longer cold. Within as well as out.

{Later, That Night}

Nicholas! Come here Check This out, Look into the sky-

 Do you see that right there?

"No, What is it?!?"

"Right There Nicholas, The Brightest shining star!"

*As Mother points into the sky, pointing at the one of hundreds of bright, energy-embodied shiny Stars, Gazing upon Infinity*

"Wow!! That is amazing!" Yells Nicholas as his eyes open with excitement.

"There is a Star and one Star in Particular I'd like to teach you about- Is the North Star, Nicholas"

"The North Star is very important star, it is well-known as The Son Of Shinoh, The one star that does not travel 'He Cannot Travel, He Cannot Move'
..... the Story of The North Star, Son is The very Night Jesus was born the Star appeared and Three Kings were to bear a Travel to Bethlehem to worship The Son of God, They were told that you would find Jesus by following the North Star"

*Tona continues to Tell the story of The Birth of Jesus Christ*

"Oh, Wow, Would you look at the time, Man sometimes just thinking of the Blessing of this life gets me carried away- Nicholas, it is time for you to go to bed Little Man."

Tana, that Night Went to her room, but she went to her Window Pane, and Looked out the Window and Saw a distant Shine, it was the North Star!! And she had a thought-

'I wonder how the Stars in space are always shining so bright, and we can see them from so far away, but we can't see what love really is when it is right in front of our eyes.' Tana   Then eventually fell asleep with a smile on her face.

*The Next Day*
{Nicholas, Wakes up in a great mood!}
"Nicholas, Are you awake, It's time to wake up"

"I'm up, Mom!!!"

"Ok, Time for school!"
*Nicholas then leaves to school*

Nicholas while on his way to school unknowingly walks right past Walter, Dell & Taz

   "You know what has been on my mind all day, Dell?" Wittingly Asked Taz
  "Now, however would I be able to guess that Taz, Do I look like a damn mind reader?!", as He is staring aimlessly into the sky.
   "We could take over this town and it could be ours"

"You need to stop smoking that stuff you put in your pipe, it's really getting to your head" Laughs Dell.

"I'm serious man, this town is ran by adults who care only about Children, Do absolutely nothing but sit on their asses and talk about if they should extend that hour. Ehhh Forget about it.......Lets go mess with that little Kid Nicholas, I hate that privileged little Lass"

" Now you are talking my language" - Walter screams out laughing

 As Taz continues to fantasize and attempt to persuade Walter into his idea-


Now, Who may this be? Good ol' little Nicholas, aww did your Mother pack our Lunch today Let's See-

Dell, NO, That is my lunch!!!!,
   *Dell Steals Lunch and Hands it to Taz*

*Well. well. well* "Let's See Here...How Typical!! Snarled Taz.  A Peanut Butter, Jelly Sandwich with Crust Cut off How Cute"

 "Taz, Stop being this way, And it's not Peanut Butter and Jelly, It's chocolate and Fluff!!"

"Hmm, Sounds delicious, Hey Walter Try this!!"

      *Walter takes Sandwich and takes a bite*

mmhmm, Now THIS Is delicious.

*Nicholas turns, Wipes a tear out of his eye and runs the other way*


Needless to say, They were three trouble-making Young adults, Taz, Dell, and Walter who were never a fan of all the Necessary, Mandatory community service to keep the town in harmony for the Children. They wanted to do their own thing and believe they lived in their own little world and picked on Nicholas. One Terrifying fact about those three they had in common, They were Satanist and practiced many Rituals amongst animals and followed philosophies of other proclaimed Satanist. This is where the story truly begins.



    Walter, Dell, & Taz would always hangout in This burned down abandoned wooden cabin, Those three would cause many havoc inside this house, As Naive as they were, they would light various items on fire, on the floors of this wooden cabin, They would capture squirrels during the day; Set-up acorn traps, that would trigger the cage to enclose right on the squirrel, and they also had a pet snake, Lucif ,named after- The Devil, Which they would watch for entertainment, Unfortunately watch Nature take it's coarse. By placing the squirrel in a cage, named: The UnFairGrounds.

  The Abandoned Cabin has a lot of history to it which is why people stay away from it.

"Maaaaaan, it's The same thing everyday..." Yawns Dell.

"It's not everyday, you see a squirrel pounce on a snake, Dell" Says Taz as he rolls his eyes

'Look Dude, i'm tired of telling you that this Snake is not Lucifer, ok, i'm just tired of you making a mockery of my religion" Snarls Dell

'Your religion is revolved around worshipping Satan yet you do nothing but be bitter towards us, all you are is nothing but a persona man," Angrily yells Walter

"Walter is right man, you knock us off.. Claiming Walter & I as Childish yet you do nothing for your religion when we at least make metaphors practicing ours", States, Taz

"Funny you guys say that, I've actually had a plan for a special event For quite some time, That I've been putting off for a little over a year now, I just didn't know how to propose it for us, but I know you guys would wimp out.." Proposes Dell.

"A little over a year??!! Jesus christ, I'm up for a lot of things but robbing the Community service Building is just an awful idea man..." Says, Taz as he tries to figure out what the heck, Dell Is proposing.

"Well, if you'd back out from robbing the Community Service then i'm not going to bother bringing this idea u-

"Just spit it out, Already!!!!"- Yells Walter
"Stop being Arrogant"

"Ok,ok ok... Well, It involves sacrificing A living being To Eternity for our Souls To Be Blessed by Satan" Proposes Dell.

"Wow, Dell, man, Now that is a hardcore plan I'd never turn down- The Deity of Darkness would be so proud" says Walter,{Mockingly}

"Whats your plan?" Eagerly replies Taz


"Remember What you were saying earlier, Taz? About How the Adults really do nothing, not even Patrol the town?"

"Yes, but I don't know about the Security system, I was merely just ranting, Not planning a damn sacrifice, I mean who are we even sacrificing and how could we possibly get away with this, I mean this is such a small tow-" Worryingly said by Taz, before being cutoff by Dell

"Taz, Shutup man, I figured everything out, We'll do it to that Little kid Nicholas. We need a kid with a pure soul and heart, and obviously that ringworm matches that perfectly. We'll wait to he walks to school and invite him to lunch, even make-up some excuse that the principle said it was Ok, We do the sacrifice and get back to town and help look for the kid, We'll be good look how empty this forest is, nobody will ever track us....
    See Taz, That's the thing- I'm three steps ahead of you, While you jokesters where asleep, I bought sleeping pills and we will make a hot chocolate for him and his mom as a 'gift' for being sorry for stealing his lunch, it is common sense that his mother will say something to us"  " Hellishly Smiles, Dell.

"You know this will be under investigation? This idea is so stupid, There is no way you are even serious man, You are planning on drugging a mother, She is going to wake up, what, on the cold ground? while her son is missing? Coincidentally after she was going to approach us three younger adults, that are "up to no good"  and stole her childs lunch as Taz finishes- "Dumb as dirt man"

"Good thought, ok well... forget the sleeping pills, We will just give her a hot chocolate and tell her that &/we will give Nicholas a ride to make up for it" Discusses, Dell.

"Now that, is a plan, but it's obvious that we did it, I mean the last time he will be seen was with us, giving him a ride" Sarcastically remarks Taz

"Damn, it's always something..that's what i've been thinking of for this whole Year and a half..an Alibi." remarks Dell.


"I Have an idea, ok, instead of giving the Hot Chocolate to his mother in the morning.. How about we go around now and 'apologize' to Nicholas and his mother." Proposes Walter. In a Serious Tone.

Taz, and Dell both agree.

"Ok, I'm getting the Hot Chocolate ready, Then we have a Sacrifice to do tomorrow!! I've been waiting for this time to come" Shouts Dell, in Joy.

*Meanwhile, That  same night, , Dell, Taz and Walter were right, Nicholas decided to tell his mother what happened to him with his Lunch earlier that day*

*Gasp* - Tana

"Well, I'm certainly having a talk with those boys tomorrow, and make sure that never happens to my beautiful little man, Again, I didn't bring you into this world to be bullied by Demons."

"I don't need you to help me!! I'm sorry I said anything, I just wanted you to know why I was so hungry"  Frantically Explains Nicholas.

"No, This is final, i'm saying something, that is that."

  Right when that conversation ends, There is a knock on the door.

"Who could that be, I'm not expecting anybody" Says Tana As she opens the Door.

It was Dell, Walter and Taz, standing as if they were three innocent Christmas Carolers, With Hot Chocolate and Candy, in their Hand.

"Hello, we would like to apologize, in regards of your son, We got carried away by teasing your son, Madam" Says Dell.

"You kids are outrageous, My child didn't even get bite of food to eat until late because of you guys, How old are you kids again??" Angrily Shouts Tana

"Well Walter and I are 19 and Dell is 21." Answers Taz, Apologetically

"You guys are grown adults, picking on my child who is 12 years old, Does that seem right to you? If you guys ever do anything to my son, I will contact the Authorities, thank you for the Hot Chocolate but That is purely disrespectful."
  Tana was always a powerful and forgiving woman, she always had an understanding for any situation. Which unfortunately did not go her way this time being, For, having a pure soul will not Cleanse other spirits, for they have to act upon themselves if they wish to seize change.

*The Next Day,*

"Wake up Taz, Walter!!! Today is the day"

"Get off me man, Should we really even do this man, I don't know if i'm up too it this is heavy stuff." replied Taz,

"I'm really nervous" Pouts Walter "I mean this is so sudden, We've never done anything like this, Dell!!"

"Anticipation Is nothing but a distraction, plus I've been planning this for about over a year and half now, we will be ok. Just stick by my side I memorized the whole ritual and prophecy, I just need one person to help, and the other unfortunately may have to stand outside to stay guard, so Nicholas doesn't escape. states Dell.

Walter you will help me out, Taz since you are a baby, and have no thrill you will stand outside and guard, be useful for once. *Sheesh* Like it's really that hard.

"Alright whatever man" replies Taz.

Taz actually had other plans.
  Taz looked into the sky the previous night and he saw a certain star, and right as it Flashed in his eyes, a thought grew into Taz' mind, As if it were a moment of Self-Clarity, or even Deja Vu-

   *Taz Thought To Himself.*

 ~*Does Walter think he's kidding the whole time & is pretending  like Dell was Sacrificing Nicholas? Or Is Walter really about to help Dell Murder a child. Oh my go-... *Taz at that moment realized who his friends really were, and nothing but fear grew in his chest* I Need to tell Nicholas' mom before this goes down.*

  The Guys get ready for their plan, at this point nothing was stopping them from Murdering Nicholas. As usual they are hanging out in their little corner, As They are discussing the plan;
   What Dell never knew is that Taz may have had a change of heart, Taz did not tell Tana about the situation but he actually thought of a smarter way of handling this. Taz left the Coordinates to the Wooden Cabin, as well as a separate note in her Mailbox.

Taz wanted to follow through and See how far Dell would take horrifying showcase. It was at that moment Nicholas Was walking down the street. Things seemed different. As Nicholas Dreaded having to walk this path to school for crossing Dell and Gang.

"Hello Nicholas" Says Dell, as if it were The Cheshire Cat in a demonic phase.

Dell, I just want to get to school, It was nice what you did for my mom,

"Yes that's right, we did feel bad and we talked to your mother again, and your principle and they said it was ok for you to come with me.." Creepily says Dell

"I'm scared"

 Well you ought to be,Kid. Snarls Walter.

 Taz says nothing,

 Get into the car, Says Dell *As he opens the door*

Taz looks into Nicholas Eyes and nods him into the car

That gave Nicholas a little comfort, There was just something protecting about the way Taz looked at Nicholas, That just made things seem ok.

*30 mins later*

They arrive at the Cabin.
 *Nicholas Gives a look, and at a glance*  Wait a second, I recognize thi- Right as Nicholas had that thought in his head, Dell put a big Cloth over his face.

*Nicholas screams at the top of his lungs terrified as he is thrown and locked into this mysterious house*


*Meanwhile*

Tana sees the mailman stop by, as they wave hello, she checks the MailBox and sees a Letter that reads;








Tana terrified, Does not know what to do, She cries and She cries For she can not call the Authorities, She drops the Note,

*In That Moment, Tana discovered her purpose.* Tana takes matters into her own hands. "Ok it is 4:30 the Note says 7:30." Tana says as she wipes a tear out of her eye, being as hopeful as possible.

She did not have anything to help her trace coordinates, but There was one word that struck her odd 'Cabin'

*Tana Thought to herself* there was one Cabin she knew but There was just no way..

*Tana has a flashback of 7 years into the past*

 "Nicholas. You know what is special about this moment"

"What is that mama"
  "Your father created this for us to live in safety"
~~~~~~~

*Tana quickly feints to another memory*

 everybody get out of the house!! there is a fire!!!!
...
    .....
Right, as Tana's Husband yelled that out the oven exploded and a piece of debris flew and hit him causing his fate.... Tana carried Nicholas out safely but things were never the same for them. Which the Mayor of Laihla, heard what happened and greeted Tana and Nicholas with a house.

"How could they possibly know about that cabin... "

Tana Couldn't figure the Coordinates out, but She remembers how to get to her old abandoned Cabin. Follow the North Star.

That's what Tana did, She had no Vehicle, So She began walking to the cabin, she has 3 hours, Laihla gets dark at 5 which causes Temperatures to decrease. Time is on her side, The temperature was not.


Meanwhile,
*At The Cabin*

 Dell begins setting up for a human Sacrifice

Dell lights up Candles around the Room in the shape of a Baphomet.

Hey Walter, Read this, Dell hands Walter a Scroll


"On the behalf of the Sunnis O' Lord, O'Lord, Accept the Sacrifice we bring to your altar, We bring our Sacrifices to you O' Lord."

Dell Laughs,

Just A Mad, Terrifying scene. Taz had to keep his cool. For he is praying that his plan works.

"Heyyyy, we should wait, you can't do a sacrifice this early"

"Excuse me?" questions Dell. "What do you know about Satanic Rituals"

"Well, you just arent being organized, a True Satanic ritual is time enclosed, Lets just make it at 7:30 for the Anticipation.

 "I told you, Anticipation is nothing but a damn distraction

"Dude, just wait Two hours" Says Taz

*Meanwhile, While Taz manages to stall Dell.
 Tana is getting stronger with each Stride, it may be dark and a ferocious Scene, in the Dark woods, but There was one thing guiding her through the Woods, Shedding her fear: The North Star, The Light forecasted over the shadows, Without Fear she Witnessed how beautiful each tree was as she was running through the woods, There was one Tree in particular, She noticed that reminded her where she was,

How can Tana be so sure, The whole time, she could only pray that was the only Cabin, for she recalls the Mayor Mourning the loss of her husband by saying he built the one and only Wooden Cabin in all of Laihla.

  She would always take her dog Jake for a walk in those woods while she held Nicholas in her arms, it was Heaven to her.

 She quickly turned to her right. There it was!! The Cabin.

Right before she took a step, she was grabbed and Captured!!

......

Tana, Terrified didn't know what to do, She looked up, it was a guy telling her to remain calm.

It was Taz!! He Knew she would come, he was out to guard, as orders from Dell himself.

Taz, Grabbed Tana, "I cannot let you in there alone. I never realized they were serious about this Satanic stuff, I thought it was another scene, I realized these guys were never my friends at all... In fact, i'm terrified to say it.. Dell is the Devil, The Real Devil, HE is asking Walter to Summon Satan by Sacrificing your sons soul, so his own soul becomes 'Pure'.

Tana's eyes grew fear, her heart dropped right as he said that.

"I never was conscious enough to notice until they planned to actually sacrifice Nicholas, I blocked the furnace from the vent, There is a vent in the back, Climb through the ve-

"I know this Cabin, this use to be my Cabin, that was burned down, I know it was Dell who did it, I will go through the vent." Agreed Tana

 Taz Nodded, "Nicholas is in a smaller room, with a walk-in closet"

"Nicholas' room when he was a child..."

"Here's how the ritual will go down, it is 6:42 right now, I managed to stall the Sacrifice til 7:30 you have a little less than an hour, To escape with Nicholas out the vents"

"What will you do?"

"I'm going to make sure nothing goes wrong." Replies Taz.

Tana Goes to vents about to Climb them.

Taz goes back to the front, as if nothing happened at all.

  *Front Door Opens*

"You know you don't have to stay outside for this, nobody is going to find this Place, We're ok Taz."
"C'mon inside man"

   "Will do" Replies, Taz.

"We are ok-" Repeatedly says Dell

"Are we really ok, we have a Kidnapped Child, that you are about to murder" Says Taz

 "We are Sacrificing this to Satan, To live forever"

"No, No we are not, You are the one doing the Sacrificing, you and Walter"

 "Yessss, Walter, Walter is a part of the Sacrifice, how does that make you feel"

"I'm not falling for your mind Tricks" says Taz.
*Dell Turns on the furnace*
      Dell no!!! Taz yells {in fear of Tana being in the vent}
"What you don't like any heat?

*in the meantime* Tana, is climbing through the Vents but she is getting sad, She cant see through the Vent!! It's all metal, She has no clue what Room she is in. The vent starts shaking...Somebody turned the Vent on!!! She has to bust through now or she will be burned alive.

*Tana Spots a weak spot in the vent, throws her body weight, quickly against it*

 *BAM* *Tana falls into room where Taz and Dell are in,

"Well, well what do we have here?!?!"

*Tana for a moment gets depressed, but she wipes off a tear in her eye and finds a way to fight away Evil"

"I'm here for my Son"

"What makes you say that" Sarcastically Claims Dell.
"I mean you busted through my vents"

"you want to see me be angry but I'm not, I'm forgiving, for your evil will not make me blind. You know that is Well, Sure not your vents, for it was once Mine and you burnt it down"

"You must be mad, I also kidnapped your son"

"I know who you are 'Dell' .. You've been trying to get my son for years now, God warned me of you, He sent Taz To help me protect his soul. See, Taz may have not known you were The Devil at first, but you had no idea Taz was a Guardian angel, you foresee the light my Son will disperse when he becomes a Saint. I Will make Sure Walter does no Sacrifice my Son, for you have manipulated and tested his will, Which he made the wrong decision.

"NO" Dell yells as he pulls a Shard out of his pants and runs vigorously and tries to Stab Tona, Taz jumped in the way which caused Taz to get stabbed, Taz then grabs the shard out of his stomach and threw it at Walter who began hitting Nicholas.

This gave Nicholas a Chance to run to his Mother.

"GET OUT OF HERE, NOW!!" Yelled Taz,

Right as that happens, Dell and Walter start beating Taz Up Ferociously, not realizing Taz Gave Tana his keys to his motorcycle and they escape.

Taz still had some fight in him, he took a shard and stabbed Walter then Stabbed Dell, When Dell and Walter were stabbed, They Deflated and a blackhole appeared under them that sucked their matter straight into the underground, Never to be Seen again.

Taz dies, With a smile on his Face. It was at that very moment, The North star shone brighter than ever before, then a Lunar Eclipse happened. It were if Destiny and God Called upon Taz to save Tana and Nicholas

 Life works in Mysterious ways, God had something Special in Store for Nicholas, He would later grow to become a Saint and eventually become The Santa Claus, We all know and Love.
