Amongst this many religions the Christians had risen to the top rank of widely accepted beliefs and had even helped or aided in the facilitation of major protocols one of which include the Locking and binding away of demons.
Deep within the catacombs and dark archives of the Vatican lies many secrets, the secret to time travel, Great relics like the holy grail and dangerous knowledge of the gate of hell and the gate of demons, the gate was a large bronze door crossed off with chains that had rusted as a result of time, bible pages torn from its place were pasted haphazardly around it, on the body of this door was written the words ' ' meaning - THE SOURCE OF EVIL. It happened that this gate also served as the gate of hell as the most powerful of the Cardinal demons were sealed off...but not much longer now because today, the bronze gate was rattling , the chains threatening to break off... A priest dressed in his normal regalia knelt down in front of it sobbing, his large silver rosary clenched in his fists
'Our father who art in heaven... hallowed be thy name...' he prayed in between his sobs, the gate now ceased it's rattles, the priest also stopped praying he gazed at the gate, it was stable and nothing unusual seemed to be seen at all ...until a sound surfaced, the sound of coins being shaken in a bag..The priest now stood up with great horror in his eyes
'YOU EVIL DEMON, GO AWAY YOU SPAWN OF SATAN, GO BACK TO THE ABYSS FROM WHENCE YOU CAME' he yelled to no one in particular, but the rattling of the coins were now getting louder...closer....the priest was now sobbing again.
'Shhhh'. A voice trailed, it was a soft whisper, it was sinister, malicious and frightening and instantly the priest stopped sobbing.
'Tell me priest, do you know why your prayers made no difference?' added the voice, but the priest didn't answer he simply sprawled on the floor and began to mutter 'please.... please.... please ' was all he could say
'hmmm...' it growled
'I will tell you, it's because of the many sins you have in your life, the many secrets that have soiled your grace with the creator, the hypocrisy, the lies... that's what is stopping you from banishing me!! I would know after all i was a direct apostle of Christ himself!' the voice Added whispering, the sound of the coins had now stopped.
'Look up priest, feast your eyes with my grace!!! What do you see? A magnificent creation right?!?' the voice said hysterically to the priest, the priest reluctantly looked up and what he saw was everything but magnificent, it was eerily, it was sinister, a tall slender man, he wore a long cloack that hooded his bald head, around his neck was a long rope neatly tied for a suicide, his head was completely pale his eyes replaced with silver coins around his waist was a rope belt containing of silver coins. That was what made the sounds. The priest quickly removed his eyes trying to avoid the entity's gaze. This was JUDAS the last Cardinal Demon.
'Now Now don't chicken out, this was all meant to please you...are you not pleased?' the priest didn't reply he was simply grunting.
' Tell me priest what is your greatest guilt? The priest's sobs were now heightened....
'Was it the girl who died after you made her get an abortion when you found out she was carrying your baby? Was it the boy you molested in the sacristy? Tell me..' the demon hissed as the prince was now crying full fledged.
'Please forgive me!! I have atoned for my sins i didn't mean to do it, it was the devil!!' the priest yelled in tears.
'You know, a few thousand years ago i said the same thing, but the guilt doesn't always leave us now does it?' Judas said as he broke into cackles.
'Now priest, let this guilt eat you up, wallow in your self pity and remove your self from this earth' The priest stood up, his hands moving towards his neck, he began to strangle himself, this was Judas' power at work, it was the art of Self Assassination, the power to transform someone's guilt against them... The priest began to gasp for air, he fell on the floor rolling trying to break free from the clutch of his own hands but it proved futile, now he was going to die and would probably and most likely not go to heaven, within minutes he stopped moving, he was dead...dead by his own hands.
'Now then... let's see what this generation has to offer' Judas said as he instantly bursted into silver coins.
