think I am pretty good.”
“I bet everyone loved that!” said Kevin. sarcastically.
“Not too much,” I said after swallowing a bite of my toast. “I think Emma is planning some kind of revenge on Journey. I can't wait to see what that is.”
“I'm not worried,” Journey chuckled, “Any joke she can do, I can do better.”
The bell rang and we headed toward the great hall.
We entered the great hall and took our places for the opening choir number. Today we were singing “Guide Us, Oh, Thou Great Jehovah.”
This time Angel Crystal directed the music. Her sparkly jeweled headband glistened as she floated to the front of the room. Upon the completion of the song, Angel Angelique got up to begin the lesson. “We will begin by watching this movie clip.”
The crew of the B-17 got into the plane and took their positions. It was a cold dark night. Budd and the other gunners (two waist gunners, and ball turret gunner) assembled in the radio room for take-off. After the plane was in the air, the gunners went to their positions. The two waist gunners, Steven and Anthony, went into position in the middle of the plane while the turret gunner, Christopher, squeezed into the small turret on the underside of the plane and curled himself into a fetal position. The turret had to be hand cranked to revolve the hatch inside the plane. Budd crawled around the tail wheel and seated himself. He then plugged in his heated flying suit, oxygen, and intercom. He took a kneeling position with his knees resting on the padded supports and his legs doubling back.
Budd's plane was the third plane in the squadron to take off, heading for a steal factory in Czechoslovakia. When they were directly above the target, the bombardier dropped the bomb. As the two planes ahead of them flew upwards after dropping their bombs, Budd's crew watched in horror as the two planes collided, killing all men on board instantly. Immediately, Pep, the pilot dove the plane to avoid the falling chunks of the broken planes. When the plane suddenly dove downward, Christopher, the turret gunner, thought that the plane was going down because it was shot down. Instinctively he pulled the ball up to get out, but Christopher forgot to turn off the power. Rather than falling out of the plane and releasing his parachute, as was his plan, he was caught with his arms pinned to the catwalk of the plane. Immediately, the crew cut the power and ran from their places to hand cranked him out and back up into the plane, all this done in fifty below temperatures. When Christopher was safely aboard, his eyes were glazed over and he appeared extremely traumatized.
The movie ended and the lights came on.
“Where do you think the guardian angels presented themselves in this example? asked Angel Angelique.
A senior answered, “I think the angels must've helped hand crank the turret gunner out.”
“Okay, any other ideas?”
A sophomore answered, “I think some angels helped the plane to avoid the falling chunks of metal in the air.”
“All right, let's see if you are correct.”
The movie started again, only this time the guardian angels could be seen. One of them helped pull the crank, while three others blew the falling parts away to miss the B-17. The four guardian angels belonged to four different men in the plane, but they acted as one, one purpose and goal--to save the men's lives.
“Good job,” said Angel Angelique. “The angels used Controlling the Elements to blow the plane parts out of the way and one of the angels actually helped to pull the crank, using invisibility to do the job without being seen. Sometimes as a guardian angel you will not be working solo. You will need to learn teamwork. It helps when you can communicate telepathically. When using telepathy you insert thoughts into others minds and receive their incoming thoughts. It is much like speaking only not out loud. There is no mind reading involved because you don't read their thoughts,
