Blessed Smoke Bomb

  1. Reverend Green creeps across the frosty grass and crouches below the window. Beyond is panting, pushing, and screaming — the midwife is too busy to notice the window inching open.

    “Come on Sadie, one last push. You can do it!”

    Sadie cries out with the effort. The room explodes in dazzling light and smoke and panic.

    Amid the uproar Reverend Green leaps from the shadows and slides a bowl of Holy Water beneath the newborn.

    He makes the Cross. “I christen thee in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.”

    The midwife comes to her senses and gathers up the newborn. As she opens the window wide to clear the smoke she glimpses a figure vanishing into the darkness of distant forest beneath a blanket of moonlight.

    Ninja priest! That was intense. I envisioned the main priest from the exorcist as the protagonist.
