Genesis 3:3 But the fruit of the tree that is in the midst of the garden God said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch , lest you die.
Genesis 3:6 And the woman saw that the tree was good for food, appealing to the eye and to achieve great wisdom, took of its fruit and ate, and gave also unto her husband, who also ate.
Genesis 3:23 And the Lord God banished from the Garden of Eden, to till the land was taken.
Genesis 3:24 So he drove the man, stood before the garden of Eden cherubim and the flaming sword to guard the way to the tree of life.
never considered myself a Catholic. Nor am I been neither. I do not think that if God revealed his word and will want an institution to change its profits and word at will, they being earthly gods. By this I mean not only to the Catholic faith, but I extend to all religions that has created man from all over the world. If I started the entry with these words of Genesis is because in the glove compartment of the car that we borrowed a few days ago, there are plenty of printed pages of the Old Testament. It seems, the former owner of this vehicle was a very religious person. And not just because these texts are, but because the car's interior is decorated with small crosses and pious stickers, such as one that says "God loves you." He asked if the former owner of the car, your God will help. I hope so. As I said, I started this entry fragments of the Old Testament because I have a lot of attention. Although I knew some of them had never before read. And now, sitting in the driver's seat, I had a chance to read them carefully and this fragment is the one that caught my attention. Like Adam and Eve had everything. They had a paradise for themselves, a paradise where there was no suffering or pain, only peace and comfort. The only condition was that they could not eat the forbidden fruit. But they paid no attention and yet, even though they had everything and lost much if they did, they did. Ignored the words of God and ate the fruit. They were then expelled of paradise. They passed this beautiful and peaceful place to go to a world full of pain and suffering. That was his punishment for disobedience. The same punishment as we have suffered.
Yesterday was very busy. Good morning, Maria, Ivan and I went to the nearest gas station. We needed to fill the tanks of vehicles and grab a few bottles with fuel to keep them in reserve. The day had dawned with storm and rain did not stop. The lightning streaked the sky from side to side and the thunder sounded constantly. In other circumstances we would not have gone outside with the weather, but considering that the raiders get stale in the rain was the best time to go outside and make the raid. We ride in vehicles, Ivan in the van and Mary and I in the utility. We drove down Highway, retracing the path we had traveled weeks ago, as the nearest gas station was in that direction. In our journey to this, we find dozens of marauders scattered on the highway. In the rain, all stood still, without moving a single limb. It was impressive past him as if we were invisible to your eyes. I wish it were always so. This sparked a conversation between Mary and me. She could not understand why the rain stayed inactive. Behavior really strange. As we talked about it, I realized another thing I do not like a hair. All the raiders that we would find they were all standing in the same direction: Motorway above address where the grandparents' house. While the marauders never come home, that I did not like anything.

We arrived at the station and once there, began to fill the tanks and cylinders without problems. While my companions performed this task, I took a ride around the grounds of the station. The ground was covered with tire marks. They were not long ago. I kept walking and I entered the store 24 hours. This was upside down. All items that were left outside the sack now were all scattered around the enclosure. The tables in the cafeteria, were not overturned, they were together. When I approached this, I could see they were full of dried blood. All table and part of the soil. Above the pool of blood, had several packages of bandages. Someone had used this room as a makeshift hospital. Someone had brought someone here had tried to hurt and heal. When I was leaving, I noticed something. On the floor were a few footprints boot. The blood was the picture of the sole of the boot. Squatting was observed that when a noise coming from behind the counter I was surprised. I turned my head quickly and I was looking intently expecting the worst. Wait a few seconds, but I did not hear anything. I thought it would be a critter, but just when I thought that, a walking corpse stood behind the counter. I was watching for a moment. In the course of time gave him time to leave the counter and begin to walk awkwardly towards me. He was all bandaged leg and part of the forearm. He wore a huge beard and sunglasses still on. The buckle of his pants hang of it and crawled on the floor in its wake. As I was just 3 meters from me, pointed and fired 3 shots with the submachine gun in semi. This fell to the floor collapsed. Maria and Ivan soon entered the store screaming "What happens? Are you okay?" . I told them I had come a prowler, nothing more. They came to this to ensure that it was "dead." Then I left the store and Mary was soon to follow. told me "Come on, we have to fill the bottles and go" . I miss that Ivan did not come out with it, so go back to the store to get it. I met him there, crouched beside the body of the marauder. I watched, totally absorbed. I approached him and asked him what happened. When I heard, I was startled and pointed his weapon. When I recognized and reacted under the gun, but first apologize to me. He then got up and walk toward the door. When I asked what had been, his response was "Nothing. Let's fill it and marchémonos" . Ivan had never seen so strange. It was as if he was worried about something. I approached the body and watched to see what had attracted the attention of Ivan. I saw nothing unusual. A simple predator. Just as disgusting as everyone else. But something caught my attention in the last minute. He lacked the buckle of his pants. Where was whether, when I was wearing was the dragging? Had he picked up Ivan? Why? I do not know. I have not dared to ask.
When we finished filling the cylinders and tank cars full of fuel, we headed back to the house. The trip went as the leg, no problem. The raiders stayed quietly in the rain. Upon arriving home, we gave the weapons to Joaquin and rest a while until late afternoon. Finding it impossible to work on the farm, and Mercedes decided to help the girls to prepare dinner. It was about 8 pm or so, when while I was in the kitchen with Mercedes, Bethlehem and Esther, we were peeling and chopping potatoes, screams were heard coming from the top floor. We were all frozen and we looked at each other. A Bethlehem dropped the potato was peeled to the ground. When it was the second cry, do not waste time and knife in hand, had started running upstairs. While going up the stairs, I heard a tremendous noise. It was as if someone was pulling overturning furniture and furniture against the walls. I reached the top floor and started looking for room came the screams. When I saw the famous room of noise between open and hits playing in that room, I shuddered. I did not think more and kicked open the door. There was a deep darkness that was torn by the rays of sunset light that streamed in through the blinds. So my view is not accustomed to the darkness, I could not see what was happening. In one corner was Elena, remained half-naked and huddled in a corner. Ahead of her, with a wooden floor lamp in his hands and his shirt was Ivan. Lamp wielded against anyone before him. I soon discovered it was a prowler. Ivan gave him the lamp with a blow to the head that staggered him. Then I jumped on the prowler and knocked to the ground. I fell over it and deal it started stabbing in the head. Do not stop until I stop moving. Not see it coming, even where it came from, but I echo another top predator. I was hoping that I nailed her teeth on my back, when Ivan took it and threw it across the room. It landed on the window, breaking the glass and the blind. The shutter been dashed and the light entered the room, blurring the shadows. Then I saw the scene. The predator had attacked me and Ivan had thrown was a boy about 13 years. This was rising. Beside, there were five more marauders. One of them, a woman was tied to a chair and struggled to get loose. His eyes were fixed on us and the mouth opened and closed without stopping. Another one walked along the wall. In his hands carrying an iron bar that dragged on the ground. It did not seem that she held the bar at will, but died in that bar in your hands and there he remained seated in his dislocated finger. Another of the marauders were bound to one arm of the chairs. The arm was free from the bonds it extended toward us. The other two had practically over. At that time, Joaquin came to the door and shouted "Damn!" I told you not abrierais this room! " . I ran to the door followed by Ivan, Elena carrying in her arms. When we were out, try closing the door, but the arm of a prowler slipped through the crack in the door, preventing me from closing the door. There was nothing to do. A couple of more arms slipped. Then I released the door and shouted at everyone to run downstairs. So we did. When the flight started, I saw Eduardo on the stairs, looking frightened face of the scene. When we got downstairs, Eduardo Joaquin started yelling that there were the weapons. only repeated the old "No way! Is my family! Will do them no harm!" . Ivan, in a fit of madness, Joaquin grabbed his shirt and raised one meter above ground, set into the wall. told "Either we give up arms or not those things I hope to kill you and your wife. I myself do that now" . Joaquin did not open his mouth until Mercedes, crying and screaming, said they were in the kitchen pantry. Ivan let go and with Eduardo ran to the kitchen. The four raiders were already halfway up the stairs. Bethlehem screamed when he saw them coming down. Mary took a vase and threw it to one of them. Eduardo Ivan and did not come and they were almost in the dining room. Strong grabbed my knife and I was the first to receive them. At that moment, above, behind the raiders appeared Fede, who apparently was in resting in our room when it happened. Carrying a chair and began yelling at the marauders. The two most behind turned and turned the tide up the stairs towards him. The other two were descending the stairs toward us. Fede went for the nearest him and hit him with the chair. This staggered and rolled down the stairs. When this landed on the floor of the dining room, the others had also come to this. He had an almost over and picked up my knife to deal it a sword, katana when Edward made his appearance, decapitating the rotten. Edward shoved me and went to the other. Two cuts left him out combat. At that moment, two gunshots rang out that felled the child predator who went for Fede. Eduardo eliminated the fourth Marauder, which was rising.
The house was made a Christ. The walls were full of holes by the gunfire, the floor covered with broken furniture, the bodies of marauders destroyed there ... Mercedes remained kneeling on the floor before one of the corpses, weeping and repeating "My son ... my son ..." . Joaquin was in shock, looking at all the corpses. Suddenly, he picked up and started climbing up the stairs. At that time, Ivan took the shirt and dragged it to the kitchen. A Once there, he took and looked at me with surprised eyes. Then I went over to her face and said "Tell me what the fuck you were doing in that room" . Ivan fell silent as if unwilling to speak, but when I repeated, this time shaking him, began to speak. said "Eric, calm down, man." Seriously, did not know we had that shit in the room, I swear. We got in because the old does not let us sleep with the aunts and I have my needs, nano. I have to hum Elena since we are here and I'm climbing the walls. We thought we could give a quick romp in the room, as the old never rise. When we've got and we were in full fatigues, we were surprised one of those things. I had no idea what was there, believe me ... ". I was about to tell you bud that is he and his girlfriend, when Joaquin's voice rang through the room. said" Out of this house ". I went to see what was happening and I found all my colleagues at the side of the room. Before them was the old man with his shotgun. When he saw me, he repeated "No I want in my house. We have given our hospitality, shelter, you ate our food, have been one more ... I only ask that you abide by our rules and one of them was not entrarais to that room. Have not complied with the rules of this house and so I have to go. Those people you killed were our sons, our daughters, our grandchildren ... ". I could not take it anymore and I had to answer. " These people were no longer your family. Long ago ceased to be. There were only more and marauders never be the people who you might remember him. They were dead and were a danger ... " said. Joaquin, angered by my words, said" And how do you know that would never be normal people?! How do you know that God had no other destiny for them?! Because of you, because of sinners like you, God sent us this punishment and paid people innocent as my family. You do not deserve to be in this house, you deserve to be out there and may God make you suffer the evil that you have sent. And to think that my wife and I were about to tell you that you could stay forever ... Please take your things and go away from here. You have ten minutes to collect everything. We have to give a Christian burial to those who have murdered ". We did not need to hear more. They wanted out and was not something negotiable. We picked up our stuff and loaded into vehicles. Once outside, I looked at the house and decided to come last. The elders were kneeling before one of the bodies. Joaquin looked at me and started talking. My words were "We regret what has occurred. If we could go back in time, undo this evil. The same day I want to thank you on behalf of the entire group for the hospitality you have given us ... Thanks for everything" . Joaquin looked into my eyes, but saying nothing, looking instead to the body. Mercedes was still crying. Walk to the door, I said "Beware" and closed the door. My teammates were already on the waiting vehicles. I started driving the utility and we set off.

We're back in the real world. Exiles paradise. Exposed to the dangers of a rotten world of a world without laws, of a dead world.
