Chapter 18: A Trail of Feathers
After the shocking revelation that Christian had been taken or borrowed by unknown forces, Colby, Dori, and Luana were determined to follow any lead that could bring them closer to their beloved friend. They carefully examined the trail of angel wings and peacock feathers, which abruptly ended, leaving them perplexed and longing for answers.
As they stood there, contemplating their next move, their eyes fell upon a striking statue of a golden peacock adorned with intricate carvings. Greek inscriptions adorned its base, a cryptic message from the unknown entity that had taken Christian. Colby, with his knowledge of ancient languages, deciphered the words and translated them to English.
"I will see you guys soon, I need to borrow Christian in the meantime."
The words sent a shiver down their spines, mingling with a sense of both relief and apprehension. It was a glimmer of hope that Christian was still alive and a promise of his eventual return. However, the mystery surrounding his absence deepened, leaving them with more questions than answers.
Driven by an unyielding determination, Colby and Luana received a vision that beckoned them to a specific location. It was an ancient building, now reduced to ruins, nestled within the enchanting beauty of the Superior National Forest. They felt an inexplicable pull, a calling that urged them to embark on this journey in search of answers.
Setting foot on their chosen path, they braved the untamed wilderness, their hearts heavy with worry for their friend. The rugged terrain tested their endurance, but their resolve remained unshaken.

Its weathered facade bore witness to years of solitude and survival in the wilderness. With cautious anticipation, they approached, sensing that this humble abode held secrets and perhaps even a clue to Christian's whereabouts.
Entering the cabin, their eyes scanned the rustic interior, taking in the remnants of a life lived in seclusion. Tattered journals and faded photographs hinted at the cabin's former occupants, their stories etched upon the walls.

In that moment, Colby and Luana realized that this humble cabin, once a refuge for its former occupants, had become a sanctuary for their own journey. It was a reminder that in their quest for answers, they were not alone. They were connected to a greater tapestry, interwoven with the stories of those who had walked this path before them.
With renewed determination, Colby and Luana took solace in the cabin's embrace. They knew that their pursuit of

As the days unfolded, the haunting visions of the wolves returned to Colby and Luana with an intensity that rivaled their initial encounter. Each night, they found themselves immersed in a wilderness that transcended time and space, a realm where the spirits of the wild roamed freely. The vividness of these dreams left them questioning their significance and wondering when, if ever, this relentless cycle would end.
Restless and seeking solace, Colby proposed a temporary respite, a journey to a nearby waterfall where Luana could cleanse herself under nature's embrace.

Chapter 22: Through the Fifth Dimension
The water embraced Luana as she submerged herself beneath its surface, and in that moment, a remarkable transformation occurred. The familiar world faded away, and Luana found herself in a realm unknown, accompanied by the presence of Jesus Himself. His radiance illuminated the depths, and His voice echoed with the resonance of eternity.
"Luana," Jesus spoke, His voice gentle yet filled with awe-inspiring power, "I have chosen you for a divine purpose.

With eager hearts, Dori and Colby joined their fellow companions, ready to embrace the calling that had been placed upon them. They were determined to carry forward the torch of Jesus' teachings, to illuminate the path of righteousness in a world increasingly overshadowed by darkness.
As they gathered in the presence of Jesus, His voice resonated with divine authority. He explained that the division of the world into different time periods was part of His divine plan. By separating the nations and eras, He intended to provide refuge for those who sought salvation, granting them an opportunity to hear His word and be delivered from the impending trials that lay ahead.
Jesus' words hung in the air, filling the hearts of His followers with a deep sense of purpose. They understood the weight of the responsibility entrusted to them—to be beacons of light in a fractured world, offering hope, healing, and guidance to those who were open to receive.

Chapter 24: The Veil of Time
As Dori, Colby, Christian, and Luana reached the ruins they had envisioned, their eyes beheld a sight that stirred a mix of awe and trepidation within their hearts. Among the crumbling walls stood a congregation of 200 people, including familiar faces like Jess, Colby's sister, and her soon-to-be husband, Anthony. These were individuals who, like them, had been drawn to this mysterious location by an unseen force—a force that connected them through a shared faith and a deep longing for God's presence.

Chapter 25: Whispers of Wings
As the group continued their journey, the topic of conversation turned to the experiences of Jess and Anthony. They recounted their encounters with two birds that seemed to appear whenever significant events unfolded.
Jess spoke first, her eyes reflecting a mixture of wonder and curiosity. "It all started a few months ago," she began. "Anthony and I would often find ourselves in the presence of two birds—a majestic eagle and a delicate dove. They would perch nearby, watching over us as if they carried a message from above."
Anthony nodded in agreement, his gaze fixed on the distant horizon. "We couldn't decipher the meaning behind their presence," he confessed. "But their unwavering presence brought us comfort in moments of uncertainty. We felt a connection, as if they were messengers sent to guide us."
Colby, intrigued by their story, interjected, "Perhaps those birds are symbolic. The eagle represents strength, power, and protection, while the dove represents peace, hope, and divine intervention. It could be a sign that you are being entrusted with a special mission, a role in this extraordinary tapestry of events."
Luana's eyes sparkled with excitement as she added, "Yes, and maybe their presence signifies that we are all part of a greater story—one that transcends time and space. Each of us has been drawn together for a purpose, guided by unseen forces towards a destiny yet to be revealed."
Dori, ever the scholar, interjected, "In biblical symbolism, birds are often associated with messengers and divine communication. They carry messages from the heavens to earth, bridging the gap between the spiritual and the earthly realms."
Christian, his voice filled with conviction, spoke up. "Whatever the significance may be, let us remain open to the messages these birds bring. They could be guiding us towards our next steps, unveiling truths that will aid us in our journey."
The group fell into a thoughtful silence, each contemplating the mysterious presence of the birds and what it might mean for their collective purpose.

Chapter 26: Into the Overgrown Wilderness
As Colby, Luana, and their companions continued their adventure through the untamed wilderness, they stumbled upon an abandoned town. Nature had taken over, reclaiming the once bustling streets and buildings with its relentless growth. Vines wound their way around structures, and foliage obscured the once-familiar landmarks.
Eager to investigate this peculiar sight, the group cautiously ventured into the overgrown town. They marveled at the sight before them, their footsteps muffled by the dense vegetation that now enveloped the once lively streets.
Rummaging through the remains of what was once a bustling community, they discovered remnants of a forgotten era. Among the dilapidated buildings, they found a small office that appeared to have weathered the passage of time. It held a treasure trove of forgotten artifacts.
Among the items, they uncovered typewriters, their keys still bearing traces of ink from a bygone era. Colby carefully chose one of the typewriters, recognizing its potential for communication and documentation in this new world. They also stumbled upon a portable record player, its worn exterior promising the melodies of a distant past.
Equipped with their newfound treasures, the group felt a glimmer of hope amidst the overgrown chaos. They had enough equipment to survive and communicate their experiences, documenting their journey and sharing their revelations.
As they delved further into the abandoned town, their eyes fell upon a stack of papers in the office building. Dusty and faded, the papers bore a message written in bold letters: "I have plans for you all. Just wait." It was a cryptic message, leaving them both intrigued and perplexed.
They recognized the hand of divine intervention, as if God Himself had left those words for them to discover. It fueled their determination to explore the vast wilderness and uncover the purpose that awaited them.

Chapter 27: The Enigmatic Force Field
Jess and Anthony stood together, their eyes fixed on the graceful bird that had become a symbol of their shared visions. It had appeared to them in moments of significance, offering a sense of guidance and connection to something greater. As they watched, the bird took flight once again, leading them on a mystical journey.
Their footsteps quickened as they followed the bird's path, its wings gracefully cutting through the air. It led them to a place of profound mystery—a force field shimmering with ethereal energy. The sight left everyone in the group awestruck, their minds grappling with the inexplicable.
Colby's voice broke the silence, his words laced with a mixture of amazement and uncertainty. "Just when we thought things couldn't get any stranger," he said, his gaze fixed on the enigmatic force field. Jess, her eyes transfixed on its ethereal beauty, couldn't help but wonder what lay beyond its confines.
In a bold act of curiosity, Christian approached the force field, brandishing a stick with a mixture of caution and determination. He thrust it forward, intending to test the boundaries of this enigmatic barrier. But in an instant, he was pulled through, disappearing from view.
Shock washed over the faces of those left behind. They stood frozen, unable to comprehend what had just transpired. Unable to see beyond the veil, they were left in a state of uncertainty, their hearts heavy with concern for Christian's safety.
Colby, compelled by a resolute determination, took a deep breath and stepped forward. He crossed the threshold of the force field, feeling a strange sensation as he passed through the barrier.
