The Devil's Incarnate

PROLOGUE

Pastor Melvin returned to the University. He had stopped attending WUCC, unknown to Sobrina. But because of her, he visited the church from time to time. Sobrina only noticed he was no longer as committed as he used to be. Their relationship wasn't a secret in WUCC. Pastor Melvin made sure everyone knew they were dating. The only place they met was in church, so they were seen from time to time sitting close together lost in conversation.

Sobrina decided to perform a "reverse ritual", in order to be completely free from Devil worship. She visited Pastor Melvin after service one Sunday, and in tears confessed about all she had done. She exposed her "charm" to him, and the mediums she had been using to lure people into the occult using the Internet. She had over one thousand converts online. He had to be the first to know, because he was her "spiritual father" among other things. She wanted him to direct her on what to do. He told her to gather-up the rest of the occultic material in her possession, they would go see Reverend Saul together in the morning.

"Do you have any marks on your body?"

"No", Sobrina responded wondering where the question was headed.

"Soby, are you sure",

"Yes, except the mark on my stomach left by the appendicitis surgery I had, there's no other mark on my body"

"What if I took off your dress?", Sobrina was alarmed, they were alone in the one room apartment, but she trusted him completely, so she believed there must be a good reason for the question. She was putting on a white flayed gown on black knee-length skirt, her hair was covered with a scarf as befitting a good Christian sister.

"Soby, what if I took off your dress?", He gently questioned the second time, his tone was suggestive. Sobrina had taken time contemplating in surprise.

"Why would you want to do that?", she questioned in anger, her voice rising a little. He sighed visibly without making a sound, and seemingly relaxed, leaning back towards the wall.

"Have you ever been r***d?" He questioned.

"No", she responded with a small smile, recollecting the experience she'd had at Lagunde Island few months ago.

"Alright, do as I've said, we'll meet tomorrow morning at WUCC", he concluded, handing back the purse containing the charm she had given him and she left.

When Sobrina slept that night, she had a vivid dream, the devil told her, "if you do this, I would make sure you never amount to anything in your entire life, I would ruin your life so badly and publicly you would be a laughing stock, I would make sure you die miserable, lonely and by suicide... I WILL definitely DESTROY YOU SOBRINA!", She awoke in a state of panic, she shivered, but her life was already in shambles, Devil Worship had not been all it had promised. The sacrifices weighed more than the gains. The message was more enticing than the experience. The dream confirmed it the more, she was supposed to be able to leave when she wanted. No, she would leave. Her mind was made up. She was certain God would be capable of keeping her, it was a chance she was willing to take.

Pastor Melvin accompanied Sobrina to Reverend Saul's the following morning. The Reverend performed hours of teaching and exorcism on her, her Devil worship material were destroyed, she was also led to renounce the Devil and her Demons; the "reverse ritual" had been done.
