《Pilgrim》Divine Intervention

“Who... who did you say you were again?” The man finally managed to ask. He still remained tense, and in a fighting stance, unwilling to back down.
Sam's eyes were still glowing. He wasn't sure how they were, but he figured it helped to match the man's fierceness.
“I am Sam Sander,” came his response. His voice was enhanced in this rage-like state. It sounded ominous, “They've been calling me 'Pilgrim.'”
The man let his guard down, finally. He shook his head.
“I'll be. You're the angel from the news report. Beat up a couple of wannabe thugs, and have been the talk of the town ever since.” He raised his hands up to signify the fight was over. “Pleasure to meet ya. I'm Tyrone Johnson. Friends just call me 'TJ.'”
TJ extended his hand upwards to Sam. After taking a moment to calm down, Sam descended and gripped TJ's hand. Even his handshake was intimidating.
I'm the one with superpowers, but this guy is the scary one.
“First of all, TJ, I owe you an apology. I was wrong to assume the worst of you from the beginning. I have no excuse for--”
“I get it,” TJ interrupted, “Big scary black man with a gun. Doesn't make it right, but I get it. Wouldn't expect that behavior from an angel though, if I'm being honest.”
Sam dismissed his wings and spear.
“The thing is, I'm not an angel. The long and short of it is that an angel named Evangelos just appeared one day, gave me these powers, and quoted some Scripture at me.”
“So you have met an angel? Wow... I have so many questions... Which verse did he mention, by the way?”
“It was umm... Matthew 5:16. 'Let your light so shine before men.'”

TJ laughed wildly and kept shaking his head in disbelief.
“Why is that funny?” Sam finally had to ask.
Still laughing, TJ took off his jacket and showed his right arm to Sam. As he read the words inked on TJ's arm, a chill went down Sam's spine.
Along his right arm, he wore the same verse of Scripture that Evangelos had quoted just a few days prior.
“Do you think it's coincidental?” Sam pondered to himself and out loud.
“With my God? I doubt it's a coincidence, my man. Divine Intervention. I had this tattoo done a few years back, after my wife and baby were taken from me. That was her favorite verse. She always told me to show God's light in these dark times. That's why I volunteer... and why I occasionally help 'clean up the streets', like from the other night.”
Sam did not know what to say. This had definitely been the person meant to help him. He even appeared to be a believer. Now, he needed to let him know and get him up to speed.
“Can we sit down? Maybe grab a bite? There's some stuff we need to talk about, I think.”
“Sure,” TJ replied, “Not like this day can get much weirder."

Shizuka
A/N: I'm actually writing two stories at once, this and another story on ScribbleHub. I have decided to put Shizuka on hiatus due to some RL issues but my story on ScribbleHub will continue since I'm co-writing it with a friend which is easier. Please do check it out on ScribbleHub. Series name is Walking in Shadows. Four Heroes were summoned from earth to combat an evil threat in Evarenan but there was a fifth person, Hirano Shizuka. She was never meant to be summoned. It was purely coincidental and unintentional. The God who acted as the intermediatery for the summon, has shunned her. Fated to live a harsh life in a foreign world. Abaddon, a Goddess, the Empress of Night, took pity upon Shizuka. Fascinated by the strength of her will and soul, and fond of her humble and accepting character, the Goddess offered Shizuka to be her Champion which Shizuka accepted. A month passed after the arrival of the Heroes and a plus one at Evarenan, the real trials and nightmares of this world had only just begun for our offworlders, especially Shizuka. AN: Shizuka is the sequel to Overture of an Odyssey, which takes place after the events of the latter.
