Chad had been worried that the elevator would have been trapped so that is why he had taken the stairs. They went down the stairs cautiously, looking for danger of any kind. The stairway signs showed they had 20 stories to go down. 3 flights down and they heard a slight noise. He yelled “DOWN!” and it was just in time to avoid the hail of bullets that came from machine gun barrels now protruding slightly from the walls. Still several wounds were sustained by the men from ricochets of the bullets. They went on down the stairs even more watchful.
On the 6th floor down, the lights went out. They smelled a foul odor and turned on some flashlights just in time to see several big hairy creatures come from panels opened in the walls.
Bedlam broke out as men tried to bring their weapons up and howls of the beasts filled the air in the stairway. The beasts were 7-8 feet tall, about 300 pounds and looked like something in a nightmare. But it was no dream as their teeth and claws ripped into the men.
1 of the men had his head almost bitten off when a beast bit into his neck. Another man was slammed into the wall as a beast grabbed a hold of his arm and swung him, then the beast placed a foot on the downed man's body and ripped his arm off. In the dim light from the flashlights, Chad saw a beast reaching for him. He ducked under the beast's reach and drove a punch into the beast's side. He felt solid muscle, the beast looked at him and gave a smile as it reached for him again.
Then its head exploded as another man shot it with his plasma rifle. The battle was short but costly. Chad was left with just 13 men, the 4 dead men laying on the floor among the dead beasts. The rest of the descent was more of the same, single beasts to multiple beasts kept popping out of hidden doors in the walls.
Chad and his men finally made it to the bottom but at a high cost. He only had 5 men with him. There was a computer screen that covered the whole wall with a demonic face filling the screen. 10 beasts stepped out of doors in the wall and grabbed his 5 men, holding them immobile.
SKYNET the demon looked at Chad and told him he had lost, that he may as well give up, he had no weapon that could hurt a demon.

Raggedly Chad stood there. He had a claw wound slash across his chest and another on his thigh. Both wounds were deep enough to expose muscle tissue and they were oozing pus and had dried blood on them. He looked around and saw his men struggling in the strong grips of the beasts.
Turning back to face the screen with the demon face on it, he lowered his plasma rifle to the floor and then stood straight and tall. The demon called SKYNET laughed a hideous laugh and said it would enjoy possessing him and having Chad do evil work. Chad said he wasn't surrendering. SKYNET looked confused and said Chad had no weapon that could hurt him. Chad said he was armed with the mightiest weapon of all, he came armed with the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.
The demon shrank back in fear. Chad said “In the name of Jesus Christ, it is commanded that you be bound in chains and cast into the utter darkness, to await judgment day standing before God.” The demon SKYNET screamed in fear as its face faded from the big wall sized screen.
Chad quickly bent, picked up his plasma rifle and turned to face the beasts holding his men. He was surprised to see the beasts release his men and stand back. He whirled at the sound of another door opening and a very large beast stepped into the room. It looked to be 10 feet tall and at least 500 pounds.
Chad heard it speak. The beast told him thanks for freeing them from the demon. That they had been made by the demon and had to obey it. The beast said Chad and his men were free to leave, that the traps on the elevator would be disabled and they could use it to go back above ground.

Chad and the remaining men made it to the surface and exited the building. They discovered a large group of men getting ready to come in. They had finished the other battle and had come to help Chad. They had pulled up short when Chad came out and were looking at him with astonishment. Where are the other men that went with you. All dead, we are it. Chad and his 5 men could barely stand from their ordeal and wounds.
Chad and the men were put on stretchers and taken for medical care. Their wounds from the claw gashes were already festering and needed deep cleaning and stitched up. Chad was updated on what was occurring across the country and even the world. A lot of the woke military, alphabet agencies, government and etc had been defeated or rounded up and placed in prison. Their prison terms wouldn't be the easy 3 hots and a cot either, it would be hard labor, something most of the “wokes” had never done. When the demonic SKYNET spirit had been defeated, all the government and corporate leaders that it had been possessing were now walking lunatics.
Chad and his 2 remaining men that went with him from his home finally made it back to the farm. When they got out and stood silently and it was realized that the rest weren't coming, there was a lot of wailing of grief from the wives and children of the fallen soldiers.
Chad suddenly had his hands full as Lindsay launched herself into his arms. She felt him flinch and asked what was wrong. He said his chest and leg had wounds and were still sore. Taking her hand he told her they had work to do as he headed to the grieving families.
He talked with each of the widows and children, telling them how brave and honorable their husband / dad was, how proud he was of their man and he was sorry he was unable to bring them back alive with him.
The one wife said her husband would of followed him to hell and back. Chad told her he had followed him into hell, but few came back and no one was unscathed by that trip. As he got a faraway look on his face, Lindsay sharply looked at him and wondered just what he had been in.
Later that night she got a look at his new wounds as he cleaned them and put new bandages on them, wonder what could of caused them. They were nasty looking and would take time to heal. She tried getting him to talk to her when they were in bed, but he refused to. Chad nor the other 2 men that came back with him would ever talk of what happened. So Lindsay tried to ease his mind and they spent several hours in “physical therapy.”
As the weeks turned into months, they worked the farm. Chad had the widows and children stay so that they were taken care of and provided for. The country slowly was returning back to normal. Chad's wounds were healed but he had found out that there were certain things he could never do again because of the damage to his muscles.
1 day Lindsay was watching him try to draw his longbow and fail. He lamented of how he would never be able to use it again. She hugged him tight and said not to worry, his son would be able to use it. Slowly it sunk into his brain what she had said. He put her at arms length to look in her eyes and asked if it was true. She said yes, followed by hugging her yelling YES!!!
THE END

Great story. I hate that it's over. I'm sure there will be another one equally as good. As are all of your stories.

I am amazed Chad did not warn her early. Every call is recorded, every purchase tracked. (Ok that was). But a simple code is needed. If you are rich. You can get others to buy stuff for you. I admit a working AI will be bad for mankind in 999,999 times out of a million. Her phone needed to be left with someone, someplace far away. As she and some “guy” were supposed to be shaking up in a cabin. No phones on. The two background checks on Chad really hurt him. As he had local Sheriff Deputies support. Building a backup ID might have been good. I had a chance in 80s. IF I had started it, kept it going as a mostly homeless, traveler. Kept couple credit cards valid. Prepaid, DL, SSI I could have had a decent backup. Today? Almost impossible.
I admit I was worried. When Lindsey started “let them do it, not you” type talk. I worried she might try to make a “deal” for Chad’s life. Thankfully the demonic skynet did not consider the threat. Physically block the stairs, bring in reinforcements. But the Bible assures us. God will always win.

So much in this story that is happening. Expecially with topic of the churches and preachers today. Preaching the Gospel and spreading the word, taking care of widows and orphans, emulating Jesus in word and deed seems to be put on the back burner to the prosperity gospel, where material wealth is the goal. Churches today are more worried about what political party the member ship belongs to then teaching about discipleship and having a close relationship with Christ. Solo I 1,000% agree that the vast majority of churches are cesspools, even the so called conservative ones. Rarely is the bible even opened during the service, even by the preacher. Most of the preachers are nothing more than hirelings tickling their congregation's ears. The preachers refuse to preach God's word for fear of offending someone and losing money in the collection plate. After all, he is due to get a new BMW and needs the money.
My personal opinion is that we are entering the last days with the falling away talked about in the bible. There is a big famine of God's word. Most “Christians” can't even tell you the basics of the bible and their basis for being a Christian is the fact that they have attended church service 2X a year since they were youngsters.
I have been kicked out of a church for “scaring” people by talking about current events and asking for prayer about them. The preacher walked me to the door in front of everyone and told me to never come back.
I have heard a preacher repeatedly from the pulpit tell his congregation that they should go willingly into a FEMA detainment center when the round ups start, so that they can preach the gospel there. I asked him if his wife and 20 year old daughter knew that they would be separated from him and what would happen to them.
I have heard a preacher, again from the pulpit, saying that bad talk was nonsense and people had been talking for years and it has always been the same. My mouth fell open as he just unknowingly quoted the bible verse against himself. The one about people scoffing , that things had stayed the same since their fathers slept.
I could go on and on but the churches are bad. Most of them have Jesus on the outside knocking to get in and the preacher tells him to go away because he is too radical and offensive. We had a Preacher who spoke from the Bible. That sin was wrong. She was not “fire and Brimstone” but compared to prior it was a change. People wanted her gone quickly. Mainly the women. (Ok in fairness she was pretty, her husband lived where he worked 100 miles away…). She soon had a stalker, I had to deal with. If she, nor I were married. Yes I would have tried to date her. Of course stories. Yes after term said President ended, they got rid of her. My attendance dropped. Then Covid it ended. To see such unChristian actions by the church. My wife’s former church I could never stand. Even when her folks attending. I would drop them off, walk around.
