that?”
    “Must you ask?” replied Angelica, approaching the door.
    “Hey, you’re not going out there alone.  You stay right here so we can protect you,” said Michael. 
    When the beautiful lady turned to stare at the young man , he nervously shifted back and forth.  “Would you like to come with me?” she asked.
    He thought for a moment and came to the conclusion it would be safer than staying there in the cabin without her.   Yet, he was obviously afraid.  Finally, being forced to make a decision, Michael said, “Wait here for us, Professor.”  The gentleman smiled at the front the young man was putting up.  He was scared out of his wits and afraid to be separated from the mysterious creature that had befriended them.  Michael noticed the young lady already at the door and quickly caught up with her.
    “Take good care of our friend,” said the professor as the two exited the cabin.
    “You got it,” said both parties at the exact same time.  Angelica just shook her head while rolling her eyes. 
    As soon as they left the professor behind to fend for himself, the smile on his face disappeared.  The seriousness of the matter at hand was sobering.  Unlike Michael, who was caught off guard by this whole incident, the professor had a hunch about the mysterious world they were now entering. He stood vigilant at his post while his two brave companions were now out of hearing distance of the cabin.  There was nothing left to do except wait which was the most unpleasant part of the whole ordeal.
     

 
    Chapter 3
     
    As they crept through the woods, Angelica said, “Michael, you need to turn loose of my arm so I can do my job.”
    “I’m sorry .  Didn’t realize I was hurting you.”
    “You can’t hurt me, but you don’t want to be touching me when it happens,” replied Angelica.
    “Shoot, girl!  Are you going to do that weird stuff again?”
    “Only if necessary .  Now stay close but no touching,” instructed Angelica.  Within a few steps, Michael once again latched onto Angelica out of fear of the unknown.  “Michael, you are doing it again.  Now let go of my arm, or you will regret it.”  He loosened his grip and slowly backed away to honor her request.  He had gotten a glimpse of what it could be like standing too close to Angelica when she unleashed her furry.  Yet, he still wasn’t exactly sure what he had witnessed.  As he fell back to allow his friend some space, there was something else to be concerned about.
    “Angelica, we have company,” stuttered Michael.  However, she evidently didn’t hear his warning.  With something strange coming over him, Michael provided another warning.  This time it came out with him shouting for help.  “Angelica!  Something is happening to me.” 
    With the speed of lightening , she came to his aid.  “Let my friend go,” she yelled in a commanding tone.  The sound of her voice was neither human nor beast, but something beyond this world.  After that, Michael blacked out and fell to the ground.  But, it didn’t end there.  The creatures followed him into the subconscious, waging a battle of momentous proportions.  No matter how hard Michael tried, he couldn’t seem to emerge from the trance.  Being caught up in visions of demons and angels, the young man cried out for help.  But, Angelica was nowhere to be seen. 
    Suddenly , in the midst of the battle an angel appeared.  The dark demonic creatures waged a fierce battle against the lone angel brandishing a flaming sword, bringing into question as to whether or not the brilliant celestial being could prevail.  Surprisingly, the demons overtook the angel.  Without warning, the beautiful creature cried out to Michael.  “Help me!”  What was he to do?  Being paralyzed by some sort of strange powers, he was helpless.  Then just as strangely as it had overtaken him, the powers loosed its grip.  Michael mysteriously found himself by the side of the beautiful angel
