Lucifer/Lancelot: American Battleship

A Story by Abishai100

Can a detective skirting the battle-lines of Heaven/Hell offer this 'new-Earth' age an examination for wrought capitalism-race glow (for all)?

A very fun adaptation of Constantine (DC Comics) storyboards.

John Constantine was now certain that there was some Apocalypse-view for anti-capitalism 'waves' in the new millennium of Earth-commerce grid-securities chess-stalemate intelligence and wanted a more dashing sportsmanship-view for the quality of handshakes in social-media/consumerism stabilization for commentary by world-citizenry/investors/teachers (for the Ego).

CONSTANTINE: I've become a resurrected vigilante-prowler detective with wings of heaven and a mind for Hell-fighting and consider any symbolism for capitalism-race 'confidence' (including chess-stabilized globe-nets!) a 'deed' for modern Earth happiness/sanity and even divinity, but I sense all this work and language with the design(s) of competition/teamwork serves as premonition for presences of stranger characters of darkness/eternity, and I remain confused about the application-value of these sportsmanship/games optimism trophies (but also remain optimistic).

INTERPOL-JOURNAL: Blood-diamond corruption today threatens the world-gem exchange and makes 'rogue' terrorism/finance woe!

Well, Constantine was right. There was a high-hand for the presence of stranger characters of darkness/eternity in this new millennium. One such character of mystery/intrigue and complications was Lancelot, a self-proclaimed 'incendiary' who claimed to his lady-angels of terrorism that he was the reincarnation of the Camelot knight of great controversy/troubles. This is the sort of 'villain' that Constantine was investigating, and he'd cast himself as a capitalism-race 'chess' commentator of this mod-age of great social-media 'waves' for consumerism-lifestyle vanities (or fortunes!).

Another presence in this world of vigilance in which Constantine offered his remarkable services of insight/intelligence was the fallen-angel Lucifer (Satan), the former first-knight of God's heavens/thrones who betrayed his 'master' and attempted to destroy God's guardian-angel Michael before parting from heaven to form his own/private legion of Hell, which included sirens/barons/ministers of adversarial messaging and warfare-imagery. This was all of course for a 'wolfish' view for the nature of civilization evolution and perhaps/arguably modern capitalism-race 'vanity' for social-media culture imagery concerning the divide between fortune...and ambition (wow).

CONSTANTINE: You doubt I can catch this Lancelot in-time for Xmas?
LUCIFER: You even doubt I'm real...a wolfen challenger of Earth-chess!

CONSTANTINE: There's plenty of sportsmanship-imagery for Earth-sanity.

LUCIFER: Really?
CONSTANTINE: I remain a constant-gardener in the stations of vigilantism.

LUCIFER: I don't doubt that, detective of Earth, but you need more drink.

CONSTANTINE: I need only the 'right-water' to detect Lancelot's gem-trail.

LUCIFER: Alright (good for social media).

As Constantine negotiated his debated contours of engagement with corruption and veiled evils, for insured capitalism-race chess-stalemate 'rhetoric' for post Cold-War globe-securities, Lancelot was busy warping computed-command prompts for American battleships poised/stationed with nuclear 'examination' across the Earth, and in particularly pronounced/symbolic areas like the waters of China and North Korea and Russia. This was the real adversarial 'touch' of 'Sir-Lancelot' (a self-proclaimed if delusional warlord) --- that 'image' of ingrained war-materialism (hmm).

LUCIFER: How'd you intercept this Lancelot hellraiser?
CONSTANTINE: I seduced one of his lady-angels of terrorism of course.

LUCIFER: Damn.

CONSTANTINE: It's no 'mess' playing chess or achieving stalemate with evil.

LUCIFER: Really?
CONSTANTINE: I doubt you're actually the Devil, for I've the image for God.

LUCIFER: God?
CONSTANTINE: Excellence, stranger; this is a media-age of 'art' matter.

LUCIFER: Alright (good for social media).

ESMERELDA: A college-media 'patriot' decor for our darling-son, John?
CONSTANTINE: He'll (someday) become a social-media super fan of IQ.

ESMERELDA: Your 'mystery-work' doesn't remove that 'color' of materialism.

CONSTANTINE: Of course not, Ezzy (for our son).

ESMERELDA: Excellence; there's a divine hand for capitalism's race (ok).

CONSTANTINE: Good for social media.

When it was discovered 'Sir-Lancelot' had managed to escape from incarceration, our good-friend/super-detective (John Constantine) took-comfort in some thanksgiving-brunch (Indian) luchi-bread to remind himself that while the Crusade ensued/continued/persisted, for the sake of capitalism-race 'chess-stalemate' (for the Ego), the shadowy-messaging of Lucifer and other 'terrorists' of fortune wouldn't thwart that superstitious (magical) diner-table 'chat' concerning 'incomplete distances' to (real) materialism bread (for all).
