Adam found her she would tell him nothing of what happened.  Lilith did 
not think of her talk with the serpent.  She spent her days running 
from Adam when his desire would overcome him and teaching the animals 
to talk and obey her.  But one day the serpent found her with the 
animals and tempted her saying, You spend your days running from a 
husband with whom you don't love and you spend your time teaching the 
animals to talk when you could be a goddess.  There is foresight to be 
given and the power of the moon and the air to be had but thou art 
content to be a fool.  Lilith was angered by the serpent and tried to 
catch it and kill it but it flew into the air and with its master's 
power caused her to fall into the dust.  Chastened, Lilith flattered 
the serpent.  She asked, What doth need to be done by me to have the 
power you speak of?  The serpent said, Leave this garden with the seeds 
thereof and grow a garden to the east and make an offering of the 
firstfruits to my master and you will have the poser he can grant you.  
Lilith gathered seeds from all of the trees and herbs and took the 
animals that would follow her out of the Garden of Eden.  The land 
outside of Eden was barren, but the earth had not yet become hostile 
and her journey was easy.  She travelled five days east of Eden.  
Lilith planted a garden around a steam and the garden grew easily since 
the curse had not yet fallen of the earth.  The eagles and owls brought 
her fruit from the Garden of Eden daily as her garden grew.  When the 
garden had grown one of the ravens spoke saying, A man at the river 
spoke to me and hath told me to say.  The one you seek is now here.  
Lilith hurried to the river and saw a brigh light.  The light came 
closer and she saw a figure within it.  It was a man with long flowing 
white hair, a silver robe, and wings extended from his back, neck, and 
legs.  He held a bow in his right hand and several flaming arrows in 
his left hand.  He spoke with a booming musical voice, Lility, I know 
what thou seekest.  You seek the posers of the spirit, the air, and the 
moon.  My servant hath spoken well of thee,  Thou are pure and worthy 
to receive the gifts I give.  Lilith answered the man, and said unto 
him, What must I do to receive gifts such as you offer?  The man 
answered her, Bring the first fruits to this place; and build here an 
altar of six large stones.  Take the Pg 2 

firstfruits and offer them on the altar of six stones with fire.  After
the fire hath consumed the offering, take a sharp stone and strike 
thine arm with the stone.  Pour an offering of thy blood on the altar, 
and I will consume the offering with fire from heaven.  I will visit 
you within a time if you do this small thing.  Lilith bowed before the 
man and said, I will do this small thing and then you will bless me.  
The wings on the man covered him completely and he rose into the air 
and was lost in the clouds.  Lilith gathered the firstfruits of the 
trees and herbs and piled them onto the bank of the river.  Then she 
found six large stones by the river.  The stones she piled together 
forming an altar.  Lilith put the fruits and herbs on the altar and set 
her torch to the altar.  Then she cut her arm with a rock and dripped 
the blood onto the altar.  Lilith worshipped before the altar.  The man 
came down and the flames licked up the blood from the altar.  The man 
abode with Lility for a month and taught her to draw power from the 
moon, from the air, and from the realm of the spirit.  Every year she 
would offer the firstfruits on the altar and then offer her blood.  He 
returned many years to consume the blood offering and to instruct 
Lilith....” 

Of The curse(Genesis 2) “And the LORD God said, it is not good that the
man should be alone; I will make him an help mate for him....And the 
LORD God cause a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he 
took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;...And 
the rib which the LORD God had taken from man, made a woman, and brough 
her unto the man.  And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and 
flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out 
of Man....(Genesis 3) Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of 
the field which the LORD God had made.  And he said unto the woman, 
Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden.  And 
the woman said..., We may eat of of the fruit of the trees of the 
garden:  But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst o9f the 
garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch 
it, lest ye die.   And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not 
surely die:...For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then 
your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and 
evil...And  when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and 
that it was pleasant to the eyes, anda tree to be desired to make one 
wise, and she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat and gave also unto 
her husband with her; and he did eat...And the eyes of them bother were 
opened, and they knew that they were naked;   And made themselves 
aprons.  And they heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the 
garden...and...hid themselves...And the LORD   God called unto Adam and 
said unto him, Where art thou?  And he said I heard thy voice in the 
garden and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself...And he 
(God) said,...Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee 
that thou shouldest not eat?  And the man said, The woman....gave me of 
the tree, and I did eat...And the LORD God said unto the woman, What is 
this that thou hast done?  And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, 
and I did eat...And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Because thou 
hast done this, thou art cursed....Unto the woman he said, I will 
greatly multiply they sorrow and they conception; in sorrow thou shalt 
bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he 
shall rule over thee...And unto Adam he said, Because  thou hast 
hardened unto voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I 
commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground 
for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy 
life;...Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou 
shalt eat the herb of the field...In the sweat of they face shalt thou 
eat bread, till thou return unto the ground...And Adam called his 
wife's name Eve; because she was the mother of all living.....The LORD 
God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from 
whence he was taken...So he drove out the man; and he placed at the eat 
of the Garden of Eden Cherubins, and a flaming sword which turned every 
way, to keep the way of the tree of life.” 

From the book of Cain: “After Cain was cursed by God, he left his
mother's dwelling and travelled to the land of Nod, east of Eden.  He 
went in search of the witch Lilith for he sought power, and to rule 
over men.  He also sought to reverse the curse of death brought on by 
Adam and Eve into the world.  He found Lilith in her home in the midst 
of the garden she had planted.  When Cain and Lilith met they found 
each other pleasing and were content to dwell with each other.  It came 
to pass that the time came to offer the firstfruits of the garden on 
the altar.  Lilith instructed Cain in preparing the fruit and herbs and 
they offered them upon the altar.  A man with wings, surrounded by 
light descended from the sky.  Lilith said unto Cain, Light-bringer, 
will give you your heart'' desire.  Speak and tell me what it is you 
seek Cain and Lilith worshipped before the man and Cain spake unto the 
man saying, Lightbringer, I Cain will answer you.  I have lost the 
things I desire most.  My parents have brought the curse of death upon 
themselves and all of their children.  I desire immortality.  Also my 
curse hath turned me into a fugitive and a vagabond. .As first born I 
desire my birthright of being lord over the children of Adam and Eve.  
Lightbringer replied to Cand and said, You shall have what you see.  I 
will give you eternal life.  The blood of others shall sustain you as 
your meat and drink.  It shall fuel your immortality.  The children of 
Seth shall fear you and they shall be in awe of you.  You will be 
bonded to the powers of the air, the powers of the moon, and the powers 
of the spirit.  You shall be bound to Lilith and reverence her as a 
goddess.  Take the blood offering into your mouth and do not let a drop 
spill to the ground.  With that Lilith took a sharp stone and cut her 
arm.  Cain saw the blood and was hungered.  He fastened his mouth upon 
the wound and drank until the blood stopped.  Lightbringer raised his 
arm and fire fell upon Cain but the fire did not burn him.  The fire 
changed Cain and made his strength increased, and his teeth were like 
daggers, and his soul was destroyed.  Lightbringer said unto Cain, You 
have the power to control the air and to fly.  You have the power of 
the moon to control shadow and create darkness.  You have the power of 
the spirit to control and enthrall the minds of other men.  You will 
pass your seed on to Lility and your sons shall be great blood drinkers 
and your daughters shall be great seers in the land.  But God shall 
curse you and all your kind to dwell in darkness and hate the sun.  And 
God appeared unto them and said unto Lightbringer,   Satan, why dost 
thou trouble my creatures and the men and women I have made upon the 
earth?  And he cursed Satan and said,  I will bind you in a void for a 
season, and you shall be destitute for a season.  And with that the 
ground opened up and the light that surrounded Satan became darkness.  
And Satan fell into the hole in the earth and the ground clised up.  
And to Cain God said, Because you have eaten blood as your meat and 
drink, and become one with the air, moon and spirit, and have given up 
your immortal soul, I will curse pg 3 

you under the sun.  You will sleep in the earth during the day, and the
children of Seth shall seek you and your children out by day to destroy 
you with fire.  And wasted shall be your days and a curse shall you be 
upon the earth.  And unto Lilith God said, Because you have served 
Satan these years you shall not fail to have a cursed child one who is 
blind or halt or maimed or deaf or dumb or one who is a lunatic.  And 
you shall be crippled upon the earth and your days shall be shortened.  
With that Lilith fell to the ground crippled in her feet and wept.  The 
ground swallowed Cain and he slept in the earth.  And God left.  Cain 
and Lilith had children, and Cain builded the city Enoch after his 
firstborn son.  And they warred against the children of Seth.  And it 
came to pass that Lilith died.  Lilith's daughters prophesied about the 
great flood, and cousin Noah built a great ship.  The sons of Cain and 
Cain himself buried themselves deep within the earth and went into a 
deep sleep.  The daughters of Lilith tried to build a great ship, but 
the rains came before the ship could be covered in pitch.  The ship 
sank with the daughters of Lilith Aboard.  Centuries after the flod the 
sons of Cain rose up from the earth.  Satan appeared to them and 
blessed them as is children.  Once again they troubled the children of 
Noah, and were a curse upon the earth.  Cain did not rise with his 
children and is said to sleep onto this very day at the time of this 
writing.” 

Of the Vampire Slayers 

“After the time of Christ, the saints did many miracles, and the holy
faith of the pure believers was like the sunlight to the vampires or 
children of Cain.  Armed with swords and sanctified to the purpose and 
holy oil which blistered the skin of the  vampires, the vampire slayers 
tracked down many of the children of Cain and would cut their heads 
off, or drag them into the sunlight.  Many vampires fled the lands of 
the vampire slaying saints to lands that believed in false gods. 

“The vampires were said to display the following traits”. 

Pale parchment like skin No reflection or shadow Sometimes surrounded by
a cloud of darkness Known to be able to fly Spread vampirism by bite or 
by birth (vampirism is a spiritual disease) Can enthrall others and 
hypnotize others Powers grows with the age of the vampires Older 
vampires can cause Tornadoes Vampires can call animals to aid them 

Can be wounded by fire, the sun, decapitation, or sanctified anointing
oil. (crucifix and a lot of faith) Older vampires have a more 
decomposed look, but they use glamour to make Them appear more normal.  
At first glance you may see them as they really are, a decomposing 
body. 

Hopefully these pages will help you in the holy war against vampires. 
Remember that your faith and purity Of heart are key in your battle 
against the undead.  It may be the key to winning the battle against 
the Unholy vampires.” 

Timothy closed the book he was reading and gathered the scrolls and book
into his backpack, and headed out of the church. “Contend for the faith 
which was once delivered unto the saints.”  On the readerboard.  
Timothy slung the backpack onto both shoulders and zipped up his 
leather jacket.  He jumped in his black corvette and headed for the 
west end of town.  There were sightings of Satan's brood on the 
waterfront.  It was dusk, and he was going to try to find any trace of 
the fledgelings.  He could sense that they had been in the area lately. 
 Images of the vampires killing and feeding flashed through his mind.  
He reached the waterfront and got out of his car.  He walked to the 
boardwalk and smelled the foul stench of a rotting body.  He climbed 
over the rail and stood n the rocks below the boardwalk and saw a dead 
body that the police had yet to find.  He pulled out a flashlight and 
shone it on the dead body noticing the blackened nose and fingers.  The 
body used to be a blond white male with blue eyes.  He had a gouge in 
his neck and  was  broken.  It was just a guess but it seemed that he 
was sucked dry.  Timothy rubbed some anointing oil which was very sweet 
smelling under his nose and got a little closer to the body.  He 
touched the forehead and searched through the images that came to him.  
He saw what happened to the man.  There were four or five vampires on 
the boardwalk and they had confronted a man and his wife they were John 
Anderson and Melissa, “Missy”.  Two  female vampires grabbed Missy and 
started taking her away from the boardwalk toward downtown.  John tried 
to follow her, but one of the male vampires pushed him back to the 
rail.  One of the other vampires was holding the leashes to the choke 
collars around the necks of a Rottweiler and a pit  bull who were 
snarling at the man.  The third male vampire went to snatch John,  but 
the first male vampire who seemed to be the alpha male pushed John away 
from the vampire and snarled at the vampire with his fangs showing.  
John tried to run away, but the leader turned around doing a roundhouse 
kick right in John's back.  There was a loud snapping sound and John 
tumbled over the rails and into the water.  He pulled John up onto the 
rocks beneath the  boardwalk and bit a hole in the neck of his victim.  
The bite cut through the fatty tissue and the spasming neck muscle and 
ripped through the carotid artery spraying blood in great squirts into 
the mouth of the parasite.  The vampire began to suck as the pressure 
lessened.  John died on the rocks with the voice of the second vampire 
in his ears,  “Chucky you selfish F...! ...” and saw and heard no more. 
 Timothy climbed back onto the boardwalk, and pulled out his cell 
phone.  He called the police anonymously, and told them about the body 
he had found.  He climbed back into his corvette and concentrated 

Pg 4 

On the vampire leader's name....Chucky....Charles....Charles... He began
to feel a compass in his mind turn toward the south.  He headed south 
on Broadway/Highway 101 and drove until he reached the mall. The 
vampire leader was across Broadway from the mall, to the east.  He 
pulled out of the mall parking lot and made his way to the abandoned 
army parade grounds once occupied by Grant's men.  He was sure the 
vampire was on the ancient base somewhere.  He pulled out a large 
crucifix that doubled as a short sword.  He could see the blade shine 
with a holy light, the vampire would see it too though anyone else 
wouldn't.  He could hear laughing from up ahead.  He also heard a dog 
bark once.  He pulled out one of his pistols from a shoulder holster.  
He had the crucifix in his right hand and the pistol in his left.  He 
crawled forward trying in vain not to make a sound.  His footsteps 
sounded loud in his ears though the laughter went on without a hitch.  
He backed against an old house.  He was sure they were on the other 
side.  He made his way around and suddenly the laughter stopped  and 
the dogs started barking.  He ran around the side of the house and 
fired the guns.  Two bullets each went into the heads of the dogs as 
the vampires recoiled from the holy light.  He shot the leader two 
times just to piss him off and turned to one of the females and slashed 
downward burying the sword deep into the vampire's shoulder.  He 
wrenched his sword free and decapitated the vampire holding the dead 
dogs leashes.  His head,  went flying, and the wounded vampire and the 
other female vampire fled.  The leader and the remaining male vampire 
began to recover from the shock of the swords light.  They both flanked 
the vampire hunter.  Timothy dropped the gun, and is hands worked in 
his coat pockets.  Timothy turned around so that the leader was on his 
right and the fledgling was on his left.  The two vampires leapt at the 
man like lions.  Timothy, with blurring speed unstoppered a vial with 
is teeth and threw it at the fledgling.  At the same time he stabbed at 
the leader.  The fledgling scratched through Timothy's coat but did not 
pierce the steel mesh shirt he wore beneath his clothes.  The vampire 
recoiled as the anointing oil burned through his face and chest.  The 
leader's arm was impaled on the man's sword and he tried to get closer 
to him.  The vampire hunter kicked Charles in the chest, and spun 
around cutting through the fledgling's head at the jawline.  The 
vampire hunter and the vampire circled each other.  Timothy unstopped 
and hurled a vial of anointing oil at the leader.  He was able to 
sidestep it.  The vampire picked up a rock and threw it at Timothy.  He 
batted it away.  The vampire leapt high into the air and started coming 
down right above the man.  The man said, “God of Adam, Seth, and Abel, 
assist me.”  “Step into oblivion!”  At the same time he leapt up to 
meet the vampire and struck directly upwards with his sword  impaling 
the undead one through the chest.  The sword flashed with a holy light 
and the vampire leader burst into flames screaming, “Nooo...F...Noo!”   
Timothy found where the vampires slept and poured anointing oil on 
their beds in the earth.  He found a few rotting corpses in their house 
and managed to locate where the two females slept.  He grabbed from 
their few meager possessions, and left the house.  He left the 
deserted, old army camp and drove off for the church.  He would pursue 
the females tomorrow.  He was riding high on adrenaline.  His corvette 
pulled into the church parking lot, his mind replaying scenes from the 
short battle over and over.  They were young vampires and he was lucky 
to escape from the fight with only  a ripped jacket.  He went into the 
church and meditated for a while.  Slowly the images of the battle 
ebbed from his mind and rested in memory.  He went down to the 
caretaker's apartment.  He chatted about nothing with him for a few 
minutes and left. When he got home he placed his gun and the large 
silver crucifix in a huge safe in his office.  He put more anointing 
oil in the pockets of his jacket and hung the ragged garment in his 
closet.  He lay in his bed and slept and dreamed.  In his dream he was 
fighting the vampire Chucky.  They circled each other like they had 
done earlier that night.  This time the blood drinker didn't leap in 
the air. Instead he grabbed the sword by the blade and wrenched it out 
of Timothy's grasp.  Then he seized Timothy and fastened on to his 
neck.  He screamed and tried to push the vampire away.  But he couldn't 
break free.  His vision went dim and he could feel himself dying... He 
woke up gasping in his bed covered in sweat.  He woke up and sat there 
trying to recall what really happened.  The dream had seemed so real 
and the memory of the dream kept trying to superimpose itself over the 
memory of what really happened.  He got up and went into the kitchen 
and fixed himself a sandwich and a glass of O.J.  Tim then went into 
the living room and watched T.V. Nothing on. He put on a video.  He 
found action movies relaxing so he threw in “Platoon”.  He watched 
Charlie Sheen as he sat in the jungle watching for an ambush.  It 
wasn't long before he curled up on the couch and fell deeply asleep.  
He woke up at 6;30 with the T.V. blaring.  He turned it off and took a 
shower.  Then took off for the gum.  He went through his workout 
routine quietly, moving from one machine to the next.  He took a second 
shower and left the gym.  He went back  home and picked up the items he 
found last night.  A necklace and a bracelet.  He changed clothes 
putting on the metal mesh shirt and trousers underneath his clothes.  
He also put on the double shoulder holster where he kept his two 
.357's.  He put two quick loaders with six bullets each in a pocket of 
his jacket, a flimsier version of the ripped jacket he wore yesterday.  
He put anointing oil in other easily accessible pockets and grabbed the 
cross/sword and put it in a scabbard under his backpack.  He took the 
vampire jewelry he had and went out to his car.  He drove around the 
small town he lived in fingering the necklace and the bracelet.  He 
started to see images of the vampire maidens asleep in the earth.  He 
headed east away from downtown.  They were in the part.  He headed 
north on Harris Street.  The park was right next to the zoo.   He saw 
the sign for the zoo and turned right heading east again.  He passed a 
school on his left and heard children playing in the playground,  He 
passed the zoo entrance and parked next to the park.  The Sequoias 
dwarfed everything around them.  He passed the playground where now 
school-age kids played and mommies watched.  A hot dog vendor sold them 
hot dogs and sodas.  Timothy headed farther into the park and walked on 
the road onto  the needle covered ground.  They were very close, both 
of them.  He looked around for a while trying to find the loose soil 
that would indicate a recent burial.  Here at the foot of a giant 
sequoia he saw two small mounds of dirt with a sprinkling of needles.  
He puled out a short handled army issue shovel and a couple of road 
flares. He stuck the flares inside an inside jacket pocket and began 
digging with the shovel.  It took him forty-five minutes to dig down to 
the first body, and another thirty minutes to fully disclose the body.  
The female slept.  The sun was partially blocked by the giant redwoods 
and by heavy cloud cover.  Timothy quickly pulled out a large bottle of 
anointing oil and poured it on the woman.  Her flesh began to sizzle 
and her eyes flew open, and she hissed at the vampire hunter.  She 
began to climb out of the holt.  Timothy lit one of the road flares and 
tossed it at the vampire.  Her skirt and jeans went up in flames and 
for a moment her eyes and Pg 5 

Mouth made large O's of surprise.  He could see the wound that he gave
her on her shoulder already partially healed.  She grabbed him and 
pulled him close saying, “You die with me!”  He managed to grab his 
sword out of its scabbard and chop down at her as the flames set his 
clothes alight.  He hacked away at her, but she held him fast.  His 
flesh began to burn from the heat and he struggled to get sway.  
Finally his jacket had burned through and ripped with the struggle.  
The flames were spreading over the vampire.  Her hair caught and 
quickly as ablaze.  She screamed an earpiercing scream and ran for him. 
 He drew back and planted a round kick squarely on her jaw and her head 
rocked back.  She staggered backward and he hacked at her.  She raised 
an arm in protection.  The sword cut cleanly through the forearm 
slicing through the bone.  She flailed her arms as he struck the final 
neck vertebrae and her head went flying, a snarl still visible on the 
face.  Timothy breathed heavily.  He picked up the shovel and began 
working on the second mound of dirt.  This grave was shallower.  It 
didn't take very long to find the form under the dirt.  He had just 
uncovered her top half when her eyes popped open, and she lunged upward 
at Timothy.  The air around him became dark.  He felt drugged.  It 
occurred to him as from far away that she was a loit older that the 
other vampires.  He felt his death coming nearer and waves of peace 
swept over him.  It's okay...everything is okay....I underestimated 
this one...but everything's okay...I am going to die....okayyy.. She 
know she had him and she played with him like a cat with a mouse.  “Did 
you think that you would kill me?”  “mmm...yes...” “Should I share with 
you the gift... ...curse...of the blood drinkers?”  “   no...”   “Then 
I will kill you....slowly....” “You  will be like an animal to me and I 
will feed on you until you lose the power to feed me.”  She pulled him 
close and embraced him.  She bit into his neck and felt the lifeblood 
squirt into her mouth.  He felt his life draining away just like in his 
dream.  He felt his spirit try to leave his body, but it was trapped.  
She would not let him die.  He fell unconscious. He woke up in a house. 
 He felt disoriented.  He saw light coming in the window and by the 
light it was just about dusk.  He was naked and his hands were 
handcuffed behind his back.  He recognized where he was.  He was in one 
of the houses in the old abandoned army base.  There was a place in the 
floor where the floorboards were removed.  This where the vampire would 
come up.  He felt fear.  He also felt lightheaded from blood loss.  
Despair had a hold on his heart.  “My God, my God, why hast   thou 
forsaken me?”  The dirt where the vampire was buried shifted.  The dirt 
began to give way and the vampire emerged emotionless from her grave.  
She bit into the veins of his two forearms and took a little blood.  He 
swooned, and she left to stalk the night.  This continued for three 
days.  He sat in his own filth and excrement.  On the third day he fell 
into a coma.  His body was wracked with convulsions.  On the morning of 
the fourth day he died.  His spirit left his body and he hovered just 
below the ceiling for a while and stared at the pitiful body below.  He 
felt sorry for that man.  He felt a call to go up higher and he rose 
quickly above the house.  He looked up ahead and saw a brilliant light 
that calmed him and allayed his fears.  He headed towards it and saw 
the earth beneath him.  From up here it looked so peaceful.  He began 
to hear singing.  His heart leapt at the sound and he began to sing 
along.  His soul seemed to know the words and as tears of joy fell down 
his face, he cried the last tears he would ever cry. “And God shall 
wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, 
neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for 
the former things are passed away.” Genesis 21:4
