Redwood: Miracle-of-Deed

A Story by Abishai100

A 'fantastic' Redwoods-defense superstition epic featuring a devilish hellraiser and a quartet of would-be 'angels' calling themselves the Reliables.

A Homeland/Earthling defense-superstition dark 'faerie-tale' featuring the nasty horror-avatar Creeper (Jeepers-Creepers), with a folklore/theosophical reference to Spring-heeled Jack (old-London lore). Thanks for reading!

====

AMLAN: If this Creeper in Cali is Spring-heeled Jack, it may be the Devil himself.

MARCUS: Creeper-sightings in the Redwoods pair with beheadings/vanishings.

EZZY: If Creeper and Spring-heeled Jack are the Devil, it's a test for survival.

DANICA: The Bible does say that the dark-pit gave-way to sentinels of darkness!

AMLAN: Creeper has bat-wings and axes-hands and zombie-appearance, no?

MARCUS: Yeah...and it wears a hat and trench-coat and is a Homeland terrorist.

EZZY: Spring-heeled Jack (old-London lore) was also a 'transit' terror-imp!

DANICA: The pit-of-darkness invites a messenger of anarchy/murder/paranoia?

AMLAN: Social-media citizenry commentary caters to Homeland superstitions.

MARCUS: As it did with Spring-heeled Jack, and this is mischief/malice chess.

DANICA: This bloody-gamester with invisibility-power(s) is Sin/Death personified.

EZZY: We'll dart to Cali-woods for cyber-comments in exorcist-vigilante deeds!
AMLAN: Perhaps this 'Sin-Death' personified (Lucifer/Satan?) is anti-capitalism?

MARCUS: We've to keep open/liberal about this 'trek' for Homeland comments.

Amlan and Ezzy and Danica and Marcus called themselves the 'Reliables' (an assembled exorcist-vigilante 'force' of Homeland superstitions and defenses for Earthling-commentary) and darted to the Redwoods (California) forest where sightings of a hat and trench-coat wearing 'zombie' specter named Creeper, with bat-wings for flight and a silver-shiny Medieval battle-axes hands for decapitation/terrorism 'diplomacy' and Hellmouth(s), drew the interest of social-media posters and theosophy/invasion conspiracy-theory writers. The 'Reliables' (Amlan/Marcus/Ezzy/Danica) had reasoned this nasty Creeper, said to be behind some recent post-9/11 era Homeland (Cali) vanishings/beheadings, was Spring-heeled Jack (an old-London street-imp of terrorism/invasion lore) or the Devil (Lucifer/Satan) himself, incarnate as a terror/evil 'presence' perhaps likened in the Christian Bible as Sin/Death personified.

AMLAN: Post-WWII Roswell invasion-lore links with post-9/11 era terrorism-fears.

MARCUS: Nicely, Amlan; makes me wonder if the Devil made historic 'art(s).'

EZZY: Well, our exorcist-vigilante 'statement' agenda is good library-inspiration.

DANICA: Creeper may require Earthling-matrix/culture knowledge/flares!

AMLAN: Well, library-microfiche record for Homeland superstition is good art.

When the 'Reliables' (Amlan/Marcus/Ezzy/Danica) got to the Redwoods (California), they set-up camp near a light-area where they created special kits for defense/statements when the battle-axes hands Creeper would appear, and they prepared notes for varied 'expressions' in Earthling-consciousness confidence, if this 'Devil' of Sin/Death personified was (actually) Spring-heeled Jack 'reborn' for a social-media paranoia for terrain/transit insecurities, with terrorism 'intuition' in Homeland holograms.

RELIABLES: We see you, Creeper, grounded for a Cali-exchange for stands in IQ.

CREEPER: You heroes grounded me with flare-light shots to my bat-wings!
RELIABLES: You're Spring-heeled Jack reincarnated ('reborn'), surely, Creeper.

CREEPER: Perhaps I am, and perhaps I'm from the pit-of-darkness, Sin/Death.

RELIABLES: You're responsible for the Redwoods vanishings/decapitations, no?

CREEPER: Perhaps I am, and perhaps I'm the Devil with culture-prints for Hell!
RELIABLES: We've arranged special Earthling-culture statements for religion.

CREEPER: Such as, heroes (for social media garbage)?
RELIABLES: We've arranged special 'sportsmanship' imagery for net-sovereignty.

CREEPER: Sovereignty.

RELIABLES: The reliability of imagery-arts for net-activity is mental-survival!

CREEPER: Do you boast any intelligibility in consciousness-structure, heroes?
RELIABLES: Liar's Paradox --- "Every statement is false."

CREEPER: Ha, the statement can't be true/false at-once and is contradiction.

RELIABLES: A 'fitting' prologue for our net-defenses for transit-deformers.

CREEPER: Leviathan-arts (proceed!).

The 'Reliables' (Amlan/Marcus/Ezzy/Danica) proceeded to present their defiant 'statements' of Earthling-culture expressions, and why the Liar's Paradox ("Every statement is false") had become a structure-proportions 'theosophy-logic' kit for a net-geometry/matrix 'claim' for Homeland (Redwoods) sovereignty, chess-tying sportsmanship-trophy symbolism with human-world intelligibility for transit-securities.

CREEPER: If I'm Sin/Death personified, what's your library-record for chess?
RELIABLES: It's in the language-arts of Homeland/Earthling culture for fair-play!

CREEPER: We'll see, for 'working' holograms (proceed!).

RELIABLES: Just as Spring-heeled Jack terrorized streets, you make hell-pits!

CREEPER: Your Redwoods are no more 'sacred' than old-London crime-streets.

RELIABLES: If you're Sin/Death personified, we've got claim for sportsmanship.

CREEPER: Such as?
RELIABLES: Amlan's brought his Montana-QB (football) 'treasure' (Bowl-memoir).

CREEPER: Joe Montana, marshaled that late-game heroic-drive in Bowl-'23, no?

RELIABLES: He contested the hot Bengals for 49ers structure/diligence in media!

CREEPER: Why should I heed your 'patriot-religion' for sportsmanship-nonsense?

RELIABLES: It's a language-arts net-activity 'reading' for (pure) demo-logic.

CREEPER: Why should I care, for Earthling matter in media-garbage?

RELIABLES: For an expression of Homeland life-direction, and bureaucracy-IQ.

CREEPER: You're idealists...for Redwoods (Cali) demonology (hmm).

RELIABLES: You got it (photo-synthesis!).

Was it the flare-light humbling grounding of the bat-winged soaring semi-invisible Spring-heeled Jack reborn ('Creeper') delivered by the defiant hands of the Redwoods hero-quartet ('Reliables') that drew a conceded self-exile of the dark-messenger of the Homeland; or the 'cool' Earthling-net activity imagery/superstitions/sportsmanship language-arts of the Redwoods hero-quartet ('Reliables') that ultimately created this 'magical' California-hologram of light-and-grammar that forced this 'specter' of Sin/Death personified to the deep-ocean abyss (forever)? Creeper became a (secret/private) 'critic' of Earth-world culture/nets underwater, while the Reliables would adapt this 'myth' into a comic-tale worth its weight in 'shining' dye (for all!).

Amlan made 'toast' for this fantastic micro-miracle of the Redwoods (Cali) with a world-exchange 'reflection' culinary-treat soft/zesty (Indian) luchi-bread thanksgiving-diner plate chat(s) and recounted what was learned for forest (Homeland) defiance in hospitality-readings.

Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned: (for until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law (Romans 5:12-19, King James Version).

JOURNAL: "Was this reborn Spring-heeled Jack ('Creeper') the Devil himself and/or Sin/Death personified, haunting the Redwoods (forest) with his Medieval axes-hands, requiring 'incomplete-distances' to Earthling-culture bureaucracy-readings for (raw) defenses of our 'worldly' manners/images of (simplified) democracy, if only for an adventure-lore of ('fantastic') distance?"
