Scorpion

Good and evil floated recklessly and relentlessly as options for deeds.
The Reverend Paul David Sinn, a pastor in an independent Christian community worked diligently in the foreign mission field as a program of witness for not only his faith but also the faith of his family. His wife was murdered, and his daughter kidnapped for a ransom that was paid and accepted but ignored as satisfaction for the terms of her release. Instead, the villains held the young twelve year old for sale into prostitution.
The Reverend morphed into a ranting Scorpion intent on revenge cloaked as justice. He killed, maimed, and led a revolution in a foreign land, successfully.
Sanity returned when he saved his daughter but his guile festered for the innocent collaterals suffering under the malicious tyranny of hooligans.
SCORPION is a tale told by Reverend Paul's companion, Shah Carlos Calusa on an Atlantic Ocean beach after a successful life. The redeeming quality of his faith lifted him from the path to perdition.
