Secret Rendezvous

Secret Rendezvous (Religious Fantasy)   

Way down deep in the bayous of Louisiana lived the notorious devil-and-witch-loving rascal and all-around scoundrel, Jimmy Jones, also known locally and internationally as Jumping Jack Jimmy Jam Jones. Many of you may be familiar with his many adventures and exploits with that fiddling she-devil, Luci and his wicked witchy wife, Selene. These three have been called the dark trinity, and in a twisted configuration of the participation of all three, gave birth to their most cherished and beloved daughter, Isabella, also known in religious circles and conclaves as the Anti-Christ.  But there’s no need to fret if you’re not familiar with Jimmy Jones, the Devil, and his witchy wife, or the many stories written about them, to understand and appreciate this new adventure, but it does help, maybe not much, but at least a little.

……

While Jimmy was laying traps for mudbugs (that’s crawfish for those not familiar with the little lobsters) and basically minding his own business, an Angel of God appeared before him. It was nine feet tall, had massive wings, and possessed perfect feminine features, except for the absence of genitals. The angel said unto him,

“Our Lord God, the father and creator of all that there is and will be, demands an audience with you. Take my hand and off to the heavens we shall go.”

Jimmy wasn’t thrilled by this ultimatum, as God was no friend of his. But refusing was damn suicidal. He took the angel's hand and was whisked off to heaven. It was all a blur, like a series of unfocused snapshots, and before he knew it, he found himself in the presence of God and his only begotten son, Yeshua.  

Yeshua looked totally different from how the world perceived him; he was tall, handsome, and imposing, and as for God, mere words couldn’t describe him. Now I know you readers may be disappointed in these generic descriptions, but being more specific would be superfluous.  It was Yeshua (The Jewish name for Jesus, for those not in the know) who first spoke. He said,

“Luci, your fiddling-loving devil is not my biggest fan, and I don’t converse with witches, so that leaves you to convince Isabella and your witchy wife of what needs to be done. To avert an apocalypse of apocalypses, I need to marry your daughter, the antichrist, and put my seed in her womb. The child produced would be Light and Dark of equal measure.  If not, then a war between her and me would be cataclysmic. Lady Night knows this; you need to convince your daughter and that witchy woman of yours to consent to our union.”

Jimmy heard truth in these words and gave Yeshua an affirmative nod.

Then God spoke,

“If I could smite you down, I would. But that would anger my other half. She’d have you believe I created her, fell madly in love with my creation, and became lovers. Not so. We both came out of the Nothingness, I the Light and She the Night. We are both co-creators of this universe. Without Night, there’d be no Light.  You may hold her favor but know this: you are just a means to an end. You’re just her plus one. Begone before I change my mind and burn you on the spot.”

Jimmy found himself back in the bayou with one hell of a headache. He found Luci fiddling away in the swamp. She smiled and said,

“You need to convince our Isabella and your Selene to consent to this union. If not, death and destruction will reign. I will not compel them or try to convince them, it’s not my place, but yours alone.”

……

Isabell was smitten with Yeshua, after all, he was one hell of a handsome guy. 

But Selene was in a rage.

“You'd better talk to me, you sanctimonious superstar, or I’ll turn you into a toad.”
