Signed GLASS...
Ruth was enraged, Marcus knew that look. Marcus started retreating from Ruth but Ruth in a flash ran close to the officer at the door of the Airship, withdrew his gun and pointed the gun at Marcus...
“ Why now? Why are you just giving me this letter” Ruth said madly
“ I swore to him never to open it, I believe it is a confidential love note and I didn’t want...” Marcus said
Ruth wanted to kill Marcus, but she knew it would cause a lot of unrest amongst those in the Airship. She needed to think and act fast. She would take her chances.
“Stop the Syrup...” She screamed but it was too late. Two people had taken the syrup and in the few seconds they were on the floor stone cold...
Screams followed...
The three Kings came out of their private cells on the ship...
“ What is happening here?” The first King said on seeing the dead bodies...
“ The Antivirus syrup did this!” Agnos the religion pillar representative said...
“Ruth!” Screamed the first King.
Out of Anger, from where he stood, he stretched his hand and simultaneously Ruth felt an invisible hand grab her neck and was strangulating it...
“ P...l..easeeeeee” Ruth started choking and vomiting blood...
*****************
Seun and Smart had grown closer than ever. They had even grown Spiritually in the few days of their togetherness, despite the worldwide pandemic. Their only problem was their children who were with Seun’s sister...
“ Rolayo is doing a great job with them... Relax!” Smart said reassuring Seun
“I know, but things are not going as planned, you know she just had a baby and her husband is unemployed coupled with the global shutdown... I know she will be running out of cash.. God please take away this Islingbee Virus and Fireflies... I hope all that is happening won’t overwhelm her...”
“Seun, calm down.. we spoke to her last night and she sounded fine...” Smart said
“ Yes but this morning ... I have this unusual uneasiness, Like worry...”
“ Let’s pray...” Smart said

“ We leave anyway, Listen everyone... History has shown us that when the Almighty is angry and has made up his mind to destroy any race or people with plagues, Fire, hail, earthquakes, floods ... Nothing can stop him, the only safe place is a place Like this, an ark... so everyone should see this Airship as our own ark.” Said the First King...
“ We all should learn from history, Noah and his family were saved by the ark, we can be saved in this Airship.”
Ruth couldn’t believe what she was hearing...The first King of the Pyramid was making reference to God, Almighty. They knew God had the final say, they knew that whenever God was angry, it was best to look for safety... Ruth fell to the ground as she wept at her mistake...
“ So If truly It was God that killed my mother because of her promiscuity, I shouldn’t have rebelled, instead I should have sought refuge in the Church, but instead I left ...” Ruth thought in tears
“ Take her to the prison cell” the First king said...
Ruth didn’t have the power to fight or struggle...but she had only a few words for the kings.
“ Since you know How Powerful the Almighty is, Do you think this Airship can stop Him from destroying us? Don’t get it twisted , this is not an ark God instructed us to create as an escape from his anger, this is an Airship that has no hand of God in it... Come to think of it, I am sure there were other boats in the land but, the boats could not withstand the flood, you want to know why ? Ruth said angrily into the face of the First King ...
There was utmost silence as everyone wanted to know why.
“ The people on that Ark were RIGHTEOUS people but on this “Airship Ark”, I don’t think we have anyone who fits that criteria here...So do you think the Almighty will watch over this Airship?” Ruth said without any iota of fear...
“ Get her out of my face!” The first King roared...
