PART 6

As Nina (the old russian woman) prepares to tell Mick.., that the circumstances of his wife's death was directly related and connected to his meeting with Grace and Hope.., there is a definite tension in the room, that had not existed, earlier. But if she is to be successful in this immense endeavor that lies before her.., the truth must be told.

Both Grace and Nina seem to think that Mick might not be as receptive, as they hope.., and Nina could lose this precious window of time she has to dispel the wretched entities, from their very souls. There is a very unique and unusual alignment of the stars, this very evening.., and it is allowing Nina to access all of her psychic abilities to their highest potential. Without this, there is a very good chance the she could be unsuccessful in her attempts…

As she takes Mick by the hand, gently… She begins, what could be the determining factor of the evening… She can sense Mick's apprehension.., so she starts by having him focus of the night sky -- and says -- Mick, my very dear boy… Look up at the stars, they are shining so bright tonight, brighter than I have ever seen -- they are like for for a reason…

Tonight they align to form a very unique and rare phenomenon. One that can increase energy in the very souls that focus on them, that believe… Just as our ancestors have used these very stars to find there way back to loved ones, when all hope was lost -- we will use them to aide us in the task at hand. Even though the universe can seem unfair, in the end when it reveals itself.., we can see that balance does exist.

I have felt your pain, many times… But can no longer, can keep from you what must be said… Mick, is getting extremely nervous -- it is obvious to him that what Nina has to say, could push him over the edge… As she continues -- Your meeting of this extraordinary soul and her beautiful child was written in the very stars that shine upon us, now. It was meant to be… But, as I said.., the universe can seem unfair and must at times be the bearer of such agony.

That early morning in September -- Mick's whole body tenses… That very morning the universe's plan was also set in motion, as it always is… You see, my son… As I told Grace.., I will tell you… The loss of your love -- your wife.., your little girl -- had to occur.., if we were to be standing here at the is moment.

Mick's head descends from looking at the night sky.., and there is a moment when both women think he will unravel. "I understand…" he says, barley audible -- "go on.., please." Your spouses were not sacrificed -- they had lived out what the universe had planned for them -- as we all do. Most people do not understand this and thus they live their lives never fulfilling their granted destiny… She takes his face in her hands -- Mick, if we are to succeed.., you must let her go. You must say good-bye to your 2 girls, once and for all…

The tears are welling up in his eyes -- but before he speaks.., he stares up at the stars for guidance and strength -- and then he says… "I have carried this pain with me, every second, of every day… At times, convinced it was just who I was… I loved them, so much and…" The tears are streaming down his face now, as he continues -- "but, I can no longer ignore the world.., I cannot dismiss these extraordinary events and continue as if it has never happened."

At that moment… Nina.., sensing the time is now or never -- takes them both by the hand -- and says -- We should go check on the child… When we begin, the demons will fight, they will look for a soul to enter if they sense their defeat… The child must be protected.

As they all head downstairs to Mick's apartment… There is a sense of urgency, in their movement. Grace is visibly unnerved, now that she thinks her child could be in danger… The whole time, Nina -- has been summoning the souls of her ancestors and mentors to surround the child with pure light and energy, protecting her from the evil that will soon be released…

Once they enter the apartment… Grace and Mick can immediately sense something is different, and Grace worries that something has happened to Hope (her child), already. Her voice cracking -- "Oh my god, is my baby okay?" "Has she been --" Nina cuts her off, and says -- Shhh, my dear.., everything is fine… Hope is tucked away -- and is literally sleeping with the angels. You can feel it, can't you, the two of… The energy that fills and protects this room, is of the purest kind. It rarely reveals itself on this earth… But it has shown itself tonight for all our protection.

Nina lights some candles, as she prepares for this very unpredictable psychic event, that she is about to attempt. Although confident in her abilities.., the whole evening she has sensed the evil lurking within these two beings is much greater than she could have imagined. This is just confirmed, with the presence of so much pure light revealing itself in the hopes of shielding them from such evil.

Even a person, such as herself -- from a long line of famous psychics… Was unaware such pure energy could show itself, in this manor. As she readies the tools of her trade, she instructs Grace and Mick to stay relaxed but focused -- very focused. These demons will look and search for any weakness to exploit.

Though these two lovers throughout time are about to experience something few have ever thought possible… There is a strange calm that they both possess, that can only exist in the presence of such love. An unbound confidence, that cannot be defeated by such vile creatures…

As she begins… She holds her hands up toward the pure light emanating from the beings she has summoned -- and the look on Grace and Mick's face, is one of astonishment.., as her hands begin to glow with a type of light unknown to either of them…

An energy so pure, they each can feel it vibrating through their entire bodies… As she places her hands on them.., the surge of power stirs the evil inside -- and it is now aware it will have to fight, if it intends to live on… Grace can physically feel the demon inside tighten around her heart, like a vice. Nina can sense that she is beginning to lose her focus and starts to chant in a language and tone they have never heard -- and are quite sure not of this earth.

The light from her hands begins to change and it looks as if she is physically fighting and pulling the demons from their bodies, as her chanting gets louder… Grace is becoming, unsteady and feels as if she is about to panic -- but they are one, at this point. Mick realizing this focuses all his energy completely on Grace and she immediately regains her composure and intent on ridding herself of this depraved energy.

They both can sense that Nina is winning the battle of, good verses evil… And it strengthens their resolve… So much so, they actually and consciously start to will the demons out of their very own bodies. As the demon struggles they all can feel it weaken, it's foul spirit being broken… When all of a sudden -- they both, at exactly the same time.., feel a jolt -- and demon, for the first time reveals itself…

As it vile being thrashes around the room looking for a soul to enter… Mick, of all people -- opens his eyes, staring directly at it, fear nowhere to be found… He begins to mentally force the demon from this world. Even Nina, who is now at the point of exhaustion cannot believe what she is witnessing…

And in a moment of pure clarity, she sees the man Mick once was -- before the death of his girls… And can recognize the strength, that only so many lifetimes can bring… And the unmatched love he shares for the woman standing before him -- the love the universe had intended for them both. In this moment, Mick has made a decision to.., rejoin the living.
