What if God and the Devil got together for a card game?
(EXT.
VEGAS STRIP- NIGHT)- Lights, cards, dice and Prostitution.
(EXT.
CASINO-NIGHT)- A white Cadillac pulls up in front of the casino,
God steps out. He’s a man in a white suit, white open shirt, he
has a rosary wrapped around his wrist. The vale is an in closet
heroin user and he’s itching for fix. When God hands him the keys
their hands touch and the bellmen is cured of his addiction.
(INT.
CASINO-NIGHT)- Michael the arch angel is standing next to God. He’s
wearing a suit with a pin of an M with angel wings on both sides.
They start to walk through the Casino floor. As I work through the
casino floor God taps on the shoulders of few gamblers in the room:
an old woman sitting in a slot machine gets jackpot for nine
dollars, the guy playing poker bets everything he has and wins, a
waitress is given of $50,000 chip as a tip.
Michael:
Boss.
God:
Michael, I sense your concern about this game, but in some form of
irony they are just as severe as an open field war.
Michael:
So then why not meet him head on, destroy evil and cleanse…
God:
We’ve been fighting an ancient war on the modern day playing field,
when this world was created; I understood that balance was essential
to humanities purpose. He wanted to have an advantage; these nights
were for the soul purpose of testing the faith of humanity.
They
walk into an elevator and head up to the sky rise.
(INT.
ROOM- NIGHT)- God is standing at a tall window looking out onto the
city The clock reads 3am and the presences of evil is sensed in the
room. The devil appears sitting at the poker table. He’s wearing a
black and red suit; his shirt is open revealing 666 tattooed on his
neck line. With long black fingernails, a red scaly tail swaying
left and right, a black goatee and a sinister white smile with the
canines slightly pointed. His voice is deep and raspy.
Devil:
I’m Very proud of my little playground. How such little effort
could create such a place. The only thing I had to do was to give
just a drop of influential power and envious greed in the pockets of
a select few.
God:
Souls.
Devil:
Same thing.
God:
all of this without affecting free-will.
Devil:
Your precious humanity has never been strong as you think. France
1349 as I recall was Aces over Queens.
God:
Bubonic plague.
God
takes off his jacket, sits at the table and rolls up his sleeves
revealing his son crucified on his forearm in red ink.
Devil:
2 million souls sound about right?
God:
sounds right.
A
massive pile of chips appear in front of both of them and the game
starts. Hands come and go. They raise, call, check and NEVER
FOLD.
God:
you make it out to New York much?
Devil:
not since 9-11, it’s not every day your winning hand is a royal
flush. Had to celebrate in a big way…How’s that bastard son of
yours? I think it’s very admirable of you to send him to the
playing field to find his own nobility.
Devil
deals the next hand.

Devil
wins the hand as he continues to go on.
Devil:
A father casting another son out of paradise with no idea who is he,
or why he was put on Earth very fatherly of you.
God
says nothing and they play on.
God:
I hear you’ve been spawning.
Devil:
oh I’m flattered you’re keeping tabs on me.
God:
Unlike some, I allow my children to have free-will. You chose to damn
the souls of your kin after trying to take over the world.
Devil:
Adolf, it’s what any father would want for his son to fallow in his
footsteps. He had great potential.

for understanding and aiding humanity wen it’s needed the most.
Having them on the playing field keeps your demons from tilting the
balance.

by an older man who kicks their ass. A girl in her mid 20’s finds
him and takes him to his parents who are happy to have their son
back. An older man walks up to the girl and they watch as the family
walks off together.
Old
Man: You’re a Saint you know that, A Saint. I’m sorry my dear I
couldn’t help it.
Girl:
yeah, that joke is wearing thin. You got a tear in your shirt.
He
sees the tare in his shirt and as they walk by the demons He kicks
them in the head.
OLDER
MAN: this was my favorite shirt.
Girl:
quit whining.
She
touches the tare and it looks brand new.
*END
OF SIDE SCENE*
As
the Game continues God has the Royal flush in his hand and goes all
in, the Devil looks at him and knows that he’s not going to fold.
Devil:
Do you have somewhere to be
God
doesn’t say anything and the Devil goes all in, the cards are shown
and God Wins. The Devil is now furious he sets the room and the table
on fire. God just sits there Before the Devil can get his hands
around God’s throat, God bursts with a radiant light that reveals
the beast as a red Dragon with massive horns. He screams and curses.
When the light dissipates God is putting on his jacket. The Devil is
on his knees in immense pain with his suit and body covered in a
several massive burns. God looks down at the chips that turned into a
check for 200 million souls, he puts it in his pocket.
Devil:
This is far from over You BASTARD!
GOD:
It’s not supposed to end, see you next time. Enjoy your city.
God
disappears leaving the Devil in the room.
