Lucy, The Devil-Girl Gets Her Reward
Once upon a time many years ago there lived a really nice girl named Tina. The nicest thing about her was the huge amount of patience she had. Each time a problem of any kind would attempt to come her way, she never got angry. Her tolerance level was greater than any of the doctors in the wide medical field. Her favorite sport to participate in was baseball. The reason for that was because she was always so, “out-standing in her field” of medicine. In fact, that was one main reason she went to medical school to become a doctor, she never lost her, “patience.”
A few years later she wanted a change of pace so she changed her job and decided to be a psychiatrist so that she could still remain a doctor, except that she wasn’t involved directly with healing people of their infirmities. That was really her bag. One reason that was so factual was because she didn’t have to make house-calls. Besides that, he didn’t like going places which was a major reason she was such an awesome basketball player, that’s the fact she hated to, “travel.” Besides that, she also hated being fouled since the only, “foul” things that she enjoyed were eating them, although she was afraid to try new things. That’s why people would say about her, “That doctor is a, ‘chicken’ who’s afraid to try new things so that makes her a, ‘quack.’ That’s her, ‘cardinal’ rule! The specialist, Jay, was blown away by his lack of knowledge so it actually, “blue-Jay” away. “Hens,” she’s more like a, “turkey.” Her teacher’s name was, ‘Bob-White,” also her best friend’s name is Will who has an evil wife since she, “du” into witchcraft so we are always yelling, ‘Whip-’er, Will!’ at him. That’s, ‘egg’-zactly his biggest problem. ‘Omelette’-ing you know that right now! Her brain has been, ‘scrambled’ since she just sits on her front, ‘poach’ so much. That’s why she’s such a, “bird-brain.” Nothing will ever come, “over-easy” to her, but at least she keeps his, “sunny-side-up.” That’s, “white,” so it means the, ‘yoke’s’ on her! That is, ‘egg’-zactly how I feel about it! It’s not, “egg”-straordinally outstanding! She is so, “egg”-stremely bad she belongs in the booby- ‘hatch!’ So, ‘‘white’ that thought, “down!” I don’t know “feather” to, “wing”-it without her or not, but I’d be quite, ‘bird.’ “
“That gal is making me craZy, (er), and I’m almost insane! It’s like I said, ‘It’s either her, or me,’ and it will probably end up being her because she has to ride the bus here which gets to be right, “egg”-spensive. I told her to get a bike and ride it to school, but she said it would make her be, ‘2-tired’ to do her chores when she got there. That’s, ‘egg’-sclusively how she makes me feel about being her boss. Sometimes I want to, ‘fly-South.’ I’ve only got one nerve, and she’s really riding that awful hard. ‘Ostrich’ ing my tolerance level to the max, although I don’t even believe, ‘Max,’ would be able to put up with her. Like I’ve said before, ‘One of us has to go, it’s either her or me, but I’m her boss, so she needs to work much better, not like she has the sun in her eyes so much. If that was the case, I could always get her a, “super-visor” which would cut out the glare and then tell her what to do because it certainly does get old fast, telling somebody directions that never do get completed to my satisfaction. Some people say, ‘she could make a preacher cuss,’ although I say, ‘She could make The Pope himself say all kinds of un-Christian words.’ She really does need to be Saved since right now, she belongs to the Devil. If you take the name devil and remove the d you end up with evil, and if you take the name God then add an o in the middle you end up with, ‘good.’ The problem is, I really don’t think even Satan himself would want to put up with her in Hadeese. Now, that’s saying a lot! Now, I know her name is Lucy, although I think it’s really his daughter which is why her name is short for, ‘Lucifer.’ “ Everybody who heard him say those words really agreed with him wholeheartedly, but none of the Danvillians wanted to have anything to do with her.
Lucy was just plain bad. She was the epitome of evil. Nobody wanted anything to do with that horrible witch from Hadeese. Then she got bored and so she went around to each of the Churches in Danville with a gas can full, which she had stolen, and with her cigarette-lighter, burned down all of them. That made her laugh, or rather cackle, like a chick who was laying a square egg. Then she waited until about midnight then ran all of them, poured gas into the windows she’d broken, then threw her cigarette lighter which had a rubber band around it to keep the flames coming. The moment they hit the petrol that had all been pored onto the floor, she let out an insane-sounding kind of cackle. She knew that she’d won her battle against good.
Yet the moment the flames hit the gas which was poured all over the inside part of the entire Sanctuary, the weirdest thing happened. Instead of having the fire come shooting out, making the entire Sanctuary become a flaming inferno of fire, the figure of a man suddenly appeared. Lou didn’t expect anybody to be in the building because it was after midnight when she was doing her dastardly deed, but the the figure was definitely a man. His arms went over his head which caused all the flames to immediately extinguish. In fact, there was no smoke damage either. It was as if nothing had ever happened there. That made Lou start cussing, but when he saw the figure with hands overhead, he yelled, “Hay! What kind of magic is this anyway?”
That’s when the figure floated over towards her. She tried to run away, but her feet were stuck to the floor like she was standing in quick-dry cement. The Figure floated over towards her. When it got about 8 feet away she yelled, “Hay! What’s the big idea? How dare you ruin my day this way! Just Who do you think that you are anyway? I demand some answers now!”
“Lou!” the voice said sternly, but with love in it, “It’s time for you to change! You seem to have a thing for fire. Well, unless you start behaving differently, when your life is over, which will be about 7 score and some change, you’ll be sent to a horrible place for all eternity where you will burn non-stop. The only sound you’ll hear besides the crackling of the flames will be your own voice, screaming. If I were you, I’d consider changing some stuff about your life.”
“Oh yeah?” said Lou, “Who made you my boss? I ain’t listening to you! I want to have fun now and not have to wait until my next life! You’re full of mud, Mr, Whoever You are! Be gone!”
Suddenly Lou felt like his whole body was on fire, but she was in total darkness, which made no sense. There wasn’t even light from the flames, but it was real, sure-enough fire because it was burning her whole body. She was screaming in pain as the flames engulfed her. Above her screams of pain and terror, she yelled, “I’m sorry! Ow! I’ll change! Ow! Give me a chance! Ow!”
That’s when the flames disappeared as quickly as they had come on her. Immediately she felt not only no pain from the flames, but a great feeling of total peace which covered her whole body, engulfing her with a really warm feeling, but it was full of love, not hatred. That’s when she saw a beautiful Bright-Light. It was prettier than anything she’d ever seen in her life. As she floated towards it, she saw her grandparents who she was sure had died waving at her. Yet as she reached out her arms to embrace them, they quickly disappeared. Then she was back in her yard, lieing on the ground. Immediately she jumped to her feet then reached in her purse. She ran to all the stores that she’d stolen things from and gave them more than the amount she’d stolen. The cashiers smiled and said, “I figured you’d come around. That’s why I didn’t call the cops on you.” Lucy got her chance to start over, which she did. So like the best-written children’s stories finish up with, “SHE LIVED HAPPILY EVER AFTER!!!”The end.
