Escape From New Babylon Marathon (Left Behind the Kids) Part 2
Beginning with Chapter 7
Vicki returned to a flurry of activity at the schoolhouse. Mark and the others had moved the computer equipment and it set up cots throughout the 1st floor. Shelley had convinced the others to let Melinda come upstairs. Janie had screamed at them and remain downstairs.
Conrad made a schedule and handed it to everyone when they arrived. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner were at specific times, and each person was asked to help with some duty, no matter how small. Some couldn’t help because their stings were more recent, but many were nearing the end of their suffering.
Mark came up to Vicki. He looked worried. “We forgot something.”
“What?”
“We didn’t tell Z. This is his family’s place, and we’ve just opened up a secret.”
“I’ll call him,” Vicki said.
Z answered on the first ring with his familiar drawl. He was a big man, burly with tattoos, but his voice was high-pitched. Vicki had liked Z from the moment they had met.
“Pete told me about your trip south,” Z said. “We saw a report last night that the GC had caught up with that Traickin guy. He’s in custody.”
“He fooled a lot of believers, but he won’t anymore.”
“Pete wants to talk with you.”
“Wait. I have news.” Vicki explained Lenore’s idea and how many people they had brought to the schoolhouse. “We want to open up the schoolhouse to anyone who needs help.”
Z paused. “And you want to know if I’ll go along with the plan?”
“Will you?”
Z gave a belly laugh. “Little lady, from the moment you told me about your dream to set up a training center, it was only logical that you’d bring in unbelievers at some point.”
“Really?”
“Of course, it’s risky. If the GC gets wind of it, they’ll be crawling all over that place and taking our supplies. That’s why Dad and I located a couple of warehouses closer to us.”
“So you think this is a good idea?”
Z chuckled. “You’ve got a good heart, you care about people, and you want to do what God wants you to do. I’m with you.”
