“Please! Don’t do this!” the girl screamed. She held her arms up in defense against the malevolent figure with a crown of thorns placed on its head and a blood-stained, white trench coat that enclosed her body. “But you, man of God, flee from all this, and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, endurance and gentleness,” Zaylee reassured the girl. The girl let out a blood curdling cry that was silenced by the brown, sleek Remington 870 that Zaylee secured on her shoulder.
