Chapter 9 - A BREAKTHROUGH IN THE BATTLE

As sleep carried me away, I began to travel, faster than the speed of light and found myself traveling back in time to the Paleolithic era where I found myself among primitive humanity tied in bondage with chains of yokes on their shoulders - cursed to suffer forever.

They had a master over them, to whom their souls pay allegiance through the gods he had in-store in place of the rulers who had turned out task masters.

The kingdom of darkness as of today was ran by the energy of the blood of the primitive People.

I found myself walking to where I could not tell. Then I saw a demon started heading my direction and soon beckoned on others who started chasing me.

One of then flew to a throne upon which I could see no figure. He reported; "Master, we have an intruder from the future who has come to give hope to your captives."

"No!!! arrest him and bring him to me at once -- arrest him. He must not give our captives hope. Bring him to me!!!"

As the sound of Lucifer echoed, I ran faster than I could in ordinary circumstance and broke out of my sleep panting heavily - my chest pouncing and beating fast.

I quickly rose from my bed and went for my bicycle.

This is where I got confused as I had no bicycle in the realm of mortality. None the less I had no time to think about it. I climbed over it and rode to Mr OGBONNA'S home.

His house was just some few yards from the lake.

I knocked on the door and mate him on his couch backing the door way and looking at the birds fly outside the window.

"Welcome my son." He greeted first and I responded hastily.

"Daddy I was just awakened from a terrible nightmare..."

"No! It wasn't a nightmare. it was a vision. Night mares are demonic attacks but this wasn't an attack so to say. This was God bringing you to understand one of the captive strategies of the man of darkness." He explained.

"In your dream..." He sat me down and told me in details the dream I had to my amazement.

"David! I have told you this so that you would have more faith to believe this I'm about to say to you.

What the Lord wants you to know is that the enemy don't want people to have hope. He wants them to believe that their situation has no solution and remedy, that they would perish in it and not be rescued, so he does everything to hunt after those instilling hope into the lives of people.

You were taken into the ancient time because this scheme has existed long ago and has worked tremendously for the kingdom of Lucifer.

In time past, the hope the enemy blinded the people not to see was the hope of the coming Messiah, but now the Messiah has come. The hope the enemy don't want the people of this time to see is the hope of His second coming and eternal life." Mr OGBONNA explained.

"Hmmm, this is so deep daddy. Thank you so much sir for answering all my questions."

"Hmm" he smiled "my son, you will conquer and be victorious, but you must be ready. The journey ahead is still miles to cover." He concluded.

Before I could say another word, I saw Mr OGBONNA turned into a mighty angel and diffused into a ray of light, then I woke up.

Only then I realized that I had been in the third realm, the first was when I traveled back in time and the second was when I had another vision of Mr OGBONNA before been restored back into my mortal flesh.

I turned my gaze to the wall and saw the clock ticking.

"What! It is 8am?" I asked and swung up to my feet only to hit the roof and staggered to walls around me. Just then I did remember that I was locked up in the cell.

I picked the small torch that was placed before me and lighted it. The place was as empty as it had been for the past three days. I checked my body to see sores all-over and tears dripped down my eyes.

A flask of food lay by the corner with my Bible where I had placed my head to sleep.

I reached out my hand for my Bible and began to read quietly while I listened to the activities that were ongoing outside the cell.

I was worried for The Principal and felt really sorry for engaging him in all the problems he was going through on my account.

We saw the day before when I derailed him about what took place before I and Magdalene resulting to her untimely dead.

"Don't worry David. You are by all means innocent and we will be released soon. Let's just wait for the police to carry out their constitutional mandates." He encouraged me and we were each taken back to our cells.

"Mr and Mrs Pam, Please can I see you both in my office." The DPO demanded that early morning and Mr Pam and his wife followed him into the office.

"Mr and Mrs Pam, I and my men have done our best to carry out investigations on this matter for the past three days. By all implications, David and the principal are innocent of the charges labeled against them, except if you want to proceed to a court of law. From us here, your daughter died of convulsion. Everyone was there. Please watch this." He handed over to them a clip of Magdalene manifesting and prayers been offered for her.

"That is a short video of what happened before your daughter passed on. It was covered by a passerby who came to the station yesterday to submit it to us after hearing the much agitation surrounding the situation." He explained.

"Well, DPO if you consider there is no need to further on with this case, I will accept that my daughter is dead and move on. You can release the principal and the student and let them go. I will go and make plans to burry her." Mr Pam said sadly and turned to comfort his wife.

"Mr and Mrs Pam, I'm truly sorry about this incidence, but sir!" He paused and called out "I have been thinking. I went to the hospital where she died and asked the doctor to examine what would have resulted to the convulsion." The DPO said and handed him some copies of the result.

"The report says that she suffered tension which caused a bridge in her brain cells." He explained further "Sir! I advice you see the doctor yourself if it be needful to learn more from him." he concluded.

"Alright DPO. I and my wife appreciate you for your efforts."

The DPO escorted them to the gate and returned back into the office and ordered for all papers to be filed for the release of the principal and David. "When you are done, bring the two to my office"

"Yes sir!" One of the officers been addressed saluted.

After releasing the principal and David, they were ushered into the office of the DPO; "Mr principal and David, I apologise on behalf of the law for keeping you in our custody." he smiled

"You don't have to be DPO. You were only doing your job." The principal responded gracefully.

"Hmm good to hear. David! Hope I'm forgiven?" He asked with a smile beaming.

"Very well sir! But fully if you would permit me to lead you to Jesus and pray with you before going." I said boldly smiling.

My principal gave me a gaze and I burried my head shylishly.

A knock came through on the door. It was Mr OGBONNA who had come to visit and was told we were released about going home.

"Ah, Mr OGBONNA, please come in. Thank you also for helping in the investigation. Please join us in the prayer." The DPO said then turned to David, "David, I'm ready to receive Jesus and be prayed for."

"Alright thank you sir. My daddy is here and he will lead and pray for you sir." I said turning to Mr OGBONNA who led the DPO to Jesus and prayed for him.

"O' my God, I feel so refreshed. Thank you for this powerful prayer Sir!" He inhaled and breath out peacefully feeling the presence of God around him.

"DPO, I have never believe there could be a good officer in this country until I meet you. You are full of humor and humane. Please keep it up." The principal applauded.

"I would have loved to be the first complementing you, David and Mr OGBONNA as well as your entire staff and school in general. I have felt very much at peace and given the required allowances to carry out my job. You are one of a kind Mr Kelvin Ayuba.

"And to David my friend, thank you for the offer of salvation. My wife has persuaded me to be born again severally but I don't even go to church. I think my salvation would be the most perfect gift to offer her once I get home. " The DPO said.

"Wow that's amazing DPO, God be praised." Mr OGBONNA replied excitedly why I just stood there smiling like I had been offered fried chicken.

"Well," the principal said standing to his feet "We would be taken our leave. My family has missed me for three good days."

"Alright! Please come visiting once in a while to share God's word with me David." The DPO said in a distance while we stormed out to head home.
