I am wrong. And I am not a soothsayer, nor a prophet or a messenger of God. Everything I feared and I discuss in my last post, has been fulfilled. After the attack the day 23 there have been several approaches over marauders. The day 24 were two that penetrated into the area. Appeared in the morning hanging around the entrance. On 25 were five and appeared at different intervals. Two days ago, which alerted us over breakfast, as they started to hit the front door, two at noon, while working in the field and last well into the night. This slipped through a window in the lobby and caught a girl in the community. Thank God we have not had to regret any deaths. Between day 26 and 27 count at least fifteen marauders came. Seeing the danger of this, Miguel suspended outdoor activities and requested that the entire community to read along and imploring God to cease attacks. The whole community has been praying these days almost without interruption while Miguel and several other members have not stopped, capturing all these marauders and locked in the rotting farm. Obviously, we have not prayed. Quite the contrary have done Juanca and Esther, which, it is said, have moved away from us to the point where we look or even on speaking terms. Yesterday, 28, has been the worst. The previous days have been nothing compared to yesterday ...
The day dawned calm. Outside there was no sign of marauders. Everything seemed secure. Still, Miguel asked that nobody come out to the outside until he and his entourage was satisfied it was safe to leave. Before you perform this task, Miguel gave us a small talk the whole community in the dining room. In short, what he said was:
"Brothers and sisters, my worst fears were confirmed. When the first attack happened, I thought God had sent the three to be resuscitated a brother. I thought that God is snatched community for any outstanding debts, for some reason unknown to me, the towering decided it was not worthy to stand in this community. But no. It was not so. After that fateful day, God has continued to send his army to army of God. He want to punish us ... " Hearing these words, the community has been shocked and started to murmur. Michael has continued "... wants us to pay any mistake we made. Not agree on how things are going in the community. Does not agree with something. And that something you know. Why do you not know? For more a week that I did not make any disclosure. has stopped communicating with me. It makes me enter that trance in which he comes in contact with me. I prayed all the time, I spent sleepless nights imploring me to make a disclosure to tell me what is the reason for their anger. But nothing. God has given us back because we've done something wrong and, therefore, continue begging me know so we can fix. While the high follow punishing, I ask , I beg you do not lose faith. Perhaps this is further evidence of the many that sees us through. A definitive end to separate the weeds from the flowers pure. Until then, fear not, keep the faith and ask in your prayers that the punishment ceases and everything goes back to the way they ... ".
When you have finished speaking, has approached the front door followed by four men dressed in robes. The whole community has begun to whisper. They were totally shocked by the revelation of Michael. Until I saw several women and some men mourn in despair. We, distant and oblivious to the din, we looked and realized only that these individuals had spent much time away from the real world as it is today were alarming for us before we came here, was the day our daily bread. We left the dining room when everyone knelt and began with one of his prayers in common. Leaving the room, I spotted Esther among the populace, praying as one more.
Michael and his four companions were taken at least 20 minutes to return. Almost the whole community was in the large hall at the time, which, just after praying, they have concentrated here. Miguel, across the door, has spoken up and smile in the mouth: "No sign of revived. God has forgiven him only he knows we did wrong. Exit peace. There is nothing to fear ". At these words the whole community began to cry and hug praise each other. We assimilate these words with more suspicion and mistrust than anything else. Miguel crossed the crowd, which began to rise to outside, and began to walk down the hall toward his room. I went to my companions, who stood next to me. I told "I'll talk to Michael. This very wrong. I have not seen marauding now does not mean that there remains a latent danger. I talk to him. 'll Stay here and if you go out, do it with a thousand eyes. Do not trust that there is calm out there ". Eduardo nodded at my words, and then kissing her to Bethlehem, I started walking briskly down the hall toward the room of Michael. In reaching this, I called insistently at the door until Michael opened it and invited me to go. Once inside and answering your question "How I can help you, Erik?" , I said "Michael, you're wrong. You have not seen marauders out, does not mean they are not hanging around or worse, who are approaching over here. You should give orders everyone back to the building and wait at least a day ... ". Do not let me finish. said" I thank you not to pronounce the word "order". Here no one ordered. Neither I nor you ... anyone. Only God. We are nobody to take the liberty of giving orders. About what you ask, no, there is no danger. God takes several days by sending their armies, which have harassed us since the first light of dawn until the last rays of sun. This morning, refreshed absent means that God has ceased to punish us. No we did to make him angry like that, and do not hesitate to ask as you decide to give me a revelation, but whatever it is, is a debt that has been settled and we have to take all this as a warning. A reminder for us to measure our actions and learn that if we do not follow the right path, God will give us the same treatment as any infidel. I assume this issue settled, Erik. By the way, I wanted to tell you about one thing ... ". With these words, opened a drawer of his desk, has taken something and you have left on the table for me to see. It was a famous case that took injection of your room. a case of "Replagal 1 mg / ml. When she left it on the table and asked me " You know what it is? ", my heart has turned a corner. I have answered a " No ". Miguel has continued " I do not usually talk about this, but you'll make an exception. The whole community knows I'm sick. Chronically ill. From For many years, I have a serious illness as serious as rare. Look ... ". At that time, Miguel rolled up his tunic and showed me his arm. It was full of spots and red spots that ran around the forearm to where he rolled up his tunic. continued" ... this single is one of the symptoms of my illness and milder. General suffer from severe pain, dizziness, heart and kidney ... I've spent years with this and the doctors told me that this rare disease would suffer until the day I die. Could only prescribe this drug along with a few more pills. All this only gets relieve some pain and some of the other symptoms, but nothing more. But you know what? Forgot doctors prescribe the best medication and the only existing cure for all ills. Faith. Since he found God and myself, my symptoms have decreased. The pains are milder and sometimes nonexistent. Despite all this, I keep taking the medicine. I still do out of habit, many years managing the medication, but very soon I will stop taking it. As soon as I feel ready, I will. God help me at all times ... ". As I had the opportunity, I asked " Why do all this? ". His answer was " The question is, why should not I tell you? I have nothing to hide. I am transparent and clean, like water flowing through rivers. And you and yours, even non-believers, my brothers, so I feel obliged to tell you all this ". When I just say that and a little confusing, I told him I was going to do my daily work. Michael, smiling, I said it was quiet, there was nothing more to fear out there. Walk to the door, I opened this and when I was fucking out, I said "Ah! Indeed! If the building are a pack of this medicine, do not forget to bring it to me. Is that I'm ". Surprised by these words, I turned and looked at him. He kept his smile, even more pronounced. He had heard that I had stolen a box of injection a few days ago and that was his way of letting me know. Nervous, answer a "Of course and left the room. How have you been missing out a box of medicine? You can have them counted, but has found that how am I to blame? Did I see? Impossible. On the other side of the door at that time. Maybe ... maybe ... Esther has been who has ratted. This option is easy for me to believe, but seeing the state it was after discussing with me and knowing that she told him he had taken the drug in the room of Michael, not to forget his reaction, however much it costs me to believe, I consider it as an option with more weight, at least for now. If confirmed that it was she who has been running on Michael to give me away, I feel very disappointed and very unlikely to be with her as things have been. Indeed, I myself will leave behind when it comes time to leave here. I hope I'm wrong. For now I'll keep my suspicions without the other members of the group. Well
. The highlight comes next. He had not gone down the hall when a scream from outside startled me. Alarmed, I Aupeo in the window of the wall and I saw that happening. From this perspective I could see the whole field and surrounding area. And it was all I could see. Already in the first field and covering my whole outlook on the horizon, there was a vast horde of marauders, a huge crowd of countless errant splinter march toward a goal: the members of the community who stood there, stunned and frightened. Some ran to the building but the vast majority were there petrified. I wasted more time and ran down the hall toward the door. When I came to this, opened almost a hit a jump and I stood outside. From here, the sight was even more frightening. Many community members had been on his knees and had begun to make their futile act of praying. What I reacted when I saw that four raiders swooped on a man who was kneeling and shouting and chorretones blood, began to devour it. This made me run towards the people and instigating people to enter the building. Eduardo and Bethlehem came to meet me. Both were exhausted. With time running out, I asked that they would pick up arms when I persuaded people to enter the building and kept the raiders at bay. At that time I did not think that last one was almost impossible because there were so many and long time no see. A hundred at least. As he lifted spurt two women and shouted them to hide, I saw several raiders swooped on two men and three errant fixed their eyes on me. I took a hoe to the ground and the chest to embed nearest him. This, with a spade stuck in his chest, I hesitate a few steps but still standing. Ran back and kept rising to the ignorant who remained there. Some, to listen, react and fled into the building, others returned to sink his knees on the floor and ignored me. Even one pushed me and told me "Let me, infidel!" moments before being devoured by five marauders. While these so dismembered, he shouted "God God Have mercy on me! Have mercy!" . I feel sorry for him ... His fanaticism led him to the grave. Eduardo and Bethlehem were quick to come back, but without weapons!. When I told them where the weapons were, a voice behind me said to me "I have not allowed me. You will not use weapons. Go to the building. We all take refuge in the building! I'm the only one earth that can stop them ". It was Miguel. See this chubby in years that it was almost funny. No wasted time and ran into the building. We were not the only, all members of the community who had escaped the marauders and prayed before, Miguel now obeyed. When three of us went to the door who neatly headed the tide of people inside. In the distance, among the horde, I could see Michael. This, invisible in the eyes of the marauders, as always, picked up and pushed it moved toward the rotting farm. At that moment I thought that if he just had to take them one by one and put them there, would take all day. And it was. Several hours passed and while all the horde crowded at the door, Miguel took them two by two, and the was carrying. Meanwhile, the entire community and we stood in the lobby of the building, watching the marauders crowding their rotten bodies from the fat glass doors. Luckily, the glass doors, which had locked and barricaded with chairs and furniture, looked endure. I could not stand idly by, and if we were allowed to kill the marauders, some form would help. I asked a robed man who had by my side where the sticks were used to restrain bond that the marauders. He told me to follow him, which led me to the room where they were kept. Bethlehem attempt to stop, because then you imagine that I was going through his head. I told them I was quiet, I knew what I did and I was not going to happen. I let go, but I remain very concerned and angry about my decision. Edward insisted on accompanying me. Expected.
When we reached the room, we did it with two sticks of these and Eduardo and I went to the outside by a window overlooking the backyard. When we got to where the herd is concentrated, they were not aware of our presence. They were too stubborn to go into the building. Some of the last row if they noticed us, but then the lazamos by the neck and began to crawl their way to the cage. Miguel, seeing us, told us that we left the building. There we listened and continued support. He looked exhausted. We could only help for a little over half an hour, as were increasingly which repaired in our presence and things started getting ugly. Although we enough to the cage, while still leaving a large number. Miguel finished the task in the evening. By that time, he had imprisoned all the raiders and there was none. Now, the farm contained a veritable horde that had doubled their number within hours. Miguel, before he went to his room, delivered a speech to the entire community, which stood waiting for their leader speak. This he gasped with exhaustion "I was wrong. God is angry with us. And every day seems to be feeding more. Or find out the reason of why we punish and his army end up killing us. These days it was just a warning. Ask your prayers that this is over ". He then walked away slowly along the aisle while muttering horrified the community.

As predicted, the previous attacks were a reminder of what happened today. And not rule out that in coming days will happen again and worst new attacks. So things are getting pretty ugly. The lazy days are over, because for whatever reason, the raiders began to know that here lies a great deal of "food" easy. I talked to Steve and we concluded to stay here begins be risky, because the place is no longer safe. But on the contrary, we can not go, and that Ivan still does not return. So there's only one solution. Contrary to what I said to Ivan, I'll go look in the coming days. It is still alive and we can not go without locating and let you know our intention to resume the road to Reus. These days I'm going to start to draw on the map the routes I take and where you'll find. In case you do not find it, go back and begin preparations to leave here. And I go and look for Ivan alone. I will not drag anyone with me.
