End of age System foretold

"Christ! What is that!" Gabriel exclaimed aloud, stepping a little closer to see for himself because where strange star landed was covered with white smoke he could not see anything. The closer he got, the clearer it became and before him stood the form of a man whose countenance was bright as though it were a light bulb. 

«Come no further, Gab. Make no further approach towards me» A voice spoke from within the confines of the bright shining image of light, echoing in the wind like sound waves traveling in a medium of silence, full of resonance. The minute Gabriel removed his hands from his face which he covered due to the brightness of the star's countenance, he had a clearer view of the image in front of him and as astonished as anyone could be, he asked immediately, knowing it was an angel, based on it's appearance having wings. 

"Wait a minute, wow! How did you know my name?" Gabriel shivered in surprise the second he heard his name mentioned. 

The angel observed a minute silence before answering that. And when he did, he pointed out a few words that seems to be of interest to Gabriel. 

«There is nothing hidden under the sun, Gab. Only to the natural are things unknown but not to the supernatural. I have known you since you where born. I have no much time to explain, I only came to deliver a message to you and to make you understand better that the earth is a battlefield and dominion is the only way via which peace can be established.»

The looks on Gabriel's face was troubling all of a sudden, and worry overtook his sense of reason, he could not help but ask, 

"You mean to tell me that peace is to be established on earth and dominion is the only way? Have you descended from above to grant me my wish for peace of which I seek to this present day? Have you come to dominate earth?"

«It's not what you think, Gab. I have not come to establish dominion. This is not my sphere of influence but yours according to the supreme law of the maker and ruler of all things: the I AM.» The angel revealed. 

"If you have not come to establish dominion, who then is going to do it and when are they going to arrive?" Gabriel asked full of uncertainty and with an obviously inquisitive stare at the angel in front of him who stood as though he halted and with arms wrapped around his chest. 

«You are!» The angel declared. 

"I... I don't understand... What do you mean, I am...?" Gabriel stuttered failing to articulate. 

«Yes, you are going to do it, Gab. The earth has been left for you to exercise dominion over.»

"How can I dominate and reinforce peace? Do you even know how weak I am?" Gabriel asked in doubt. 

The angel looked him in the eye with a glittering smile on his face... 

«Will you be able to accept responsibility and to take up a fight against what is coming? I came because there is a willing heart ready to end all wars and you have been chosen, Gabriel» 

There he goes again, causing his forehead to wrinkle in expressions of the worrisome thoughts in his heart for what was being said to him, 

"What war do you speak of? And chosen for what?" Gabriel asked with eyes full of desperation. 

«Will you be able to accept the responsibilities, Gabriel? It is going to be one hell of a ride, but you will have celestial support» 

"I will!" He passionately accepted. 

He accepted not because he was in need of dominating anybody, but that he has been promised angelic support. He felt, ...this is it! Now I'm going to have angels help me in my neighborhood against the gangs troubling me and my friends... He thought in that manner because his rivals have got robots with which they use to threaten him and his friends whenever their is a clash between them. Aside that, there has been robbery, nighttime killings and daylight molestation going on in the state of California which has been a major concern to the government as aired live on the news channels and to the citizens as well, of which he is very much aware of. He so wanted to live in a better world — a peaceful habitation. 

When the angel perceived that Gabriel was not grasping the full message of what he was really referring to in essence, he decided to elaborate further to ensure he was really willing to take up responsibility. 

«The war of the end of ages and there are going to be some friends like you, friends you must find and unite yourself with. You will defend this earth from the invaders. Your rivals shall possess men by day to usurp authority and by night they shall resurface as demon creatures, many people may suppose they are aliens, but I am preinforming you before time to know that they will invade earth to kill and end lives: a system of destruction. Only you can resist them now. Earth has been given to you to dominate and I can not break ranks because I have been constrained to attend to heavenly matters. It's up to you to not fail your world.»  

The angel believed he has passed the full message to him and was not expecting Gabriel to fully understand every at once. After a moment of watching Gabriel think, trying to comprehend all that has been said, the angel of light took off from the terrestrial with it's large wings, however, Gabriel cried, saying, 

"Wait, you have not given me any abilities yet!"

Being suspended in the clouds, the angel looked down once more at Gabriel, and proclaimed with a loud voice, saying, 

«Search inwards, it's in you, Gab! You already know how to summon me when you need me!» 

"Wait! How?" Gabriel yelled, but it was too late now: the star was gone like an arrow fired into the heavens with a speed of light and it was up to him to take up responsibility. Gabriel slightly staggered, stepping backwards, he sat on the underlaying rock fragment again and after bowing his head down to reflect on every word and on what he just saw, he lifted his head to see that everything was back to normal again. The grasses and a few tree crops afar off where his car was parked, all appeared again as though nothing happened. 

...wait, did I just have myself go through a portal of the supernatural?... He asked himself as he again looked at the palm of his hands which felt stronger than usual. He looked at his wrist watch and quickly arose on his feet, running back to his car to go tell someone about what he saw. When he entered the steering wheel, he checked the time again and to his amazement, it took him one minute to get to where his car was parked which literally took him this twenty minutes away from it, prior.
