Saint Thomas And The Blood Diamond

Saint Thomas awoke to the sun beams flowing over the plain. The sun raised the ocean of light to shine upon Saint Thomas and the other captives digging the "Big Hole" to give to their master rich human the right to sell the blood diamond(s) to the rich humans of Eden of Eden.

Saint Thomas's hat laid angled over eyes. Saint Thomas lowered eyes to focus up the sun. Saint Thomas seen:
<Captive poor humans laying everywhere picked up their bodies like puppets and swing picks connected to human bodies with hands guided by limbs to become one with sworn blood oath given each swing, deepening the cuts that bond, and creating drips of blood for the sacrifice to have the diamonds.

Saint Thomas sighed and picked up a pick with mouth and swung the axe against the stone ground of the "Big Hole" thinking of the battle two weeks ago when Saint Thomas failed to convince Eden of Eden diamonds were not worth killing and surrendered to the rich human controlling the diamond minds.

Before Saint Thomas also failed to convince the rich human controlling a bunch of poor humans who want to kill for the diamond minds to destroy only the diamonds. Saint Thomas spent months talking with the rich human controlling poor humans to not kill the rich human controlling the diamond minds and the rich human's poor humans. Saint Thomas spent months talking with one rich human only to surrender to another rich human hoping to convince the rich human controlling the diaminds to destroy the diamonds. Instead Saint Thomas was chained and sent to the "Big Hole" of Kimberley, of Northern Cape, to dig the stone with the other wounded poor human warrior slaves.

Saint Thomas seen to a poor human warrior slave, >We are at least alive.<

The poor human warrior slave seen to Saint Thomas, >We are dead.< The poor human warrior slave lifted pick and slammed pick and slammed pick to stone and slammed pick to stone and slammed pick to stone. The poor human warrior slave stood up. The poor human warrior slave lifted pick and said, „We are are thirteen thousand meters from the surface of the earth." The poor human warrior slave shook fist at sky and to the top of the hole and pointed finger, said, "Do you not know the English Kant?"

Saint Thomas, a known English Kant artist, let the axe drop from mouth and said, „We will be able to get out."

The poor human warrior slave pointed finger from sky to a dot of a rim thirteen thousand meters from tip of finger, „There is one tunnel from tip to base." The poor human warrior slave slowly lowered arm to trace finger from rim of "Big Hole" to the base along black line almost hidden against the stone wall thousands of meters away.

Saint Thomas seen, < :) , > and said, „Yes. That is the way out."

The poor human warrior slave lifted pick high above head and slammed pick to ground, slammed pick to ground, slammed pick to ground.

A shout in the mind, >Get back to work you puppet. Pick up that damn pick.< The shout of the mind was seen to all by a six foot, six inches, tall human with lots of muscles holding a really big gun and a thorn whip.

Saint Thomas looked behind. Saint Thomas picked up axe with mouth and slammed axe to ground driving the axe head into the stone.

Saint Thomas seen to all, >I need a new axe. This one is stuck in the ground.<

The six foot, six inches, tall human with lots of muscles holding a really big gun and a thorn whip snapped his whip and shot a bullet by Saint Thomas's eyes, seen >You a strong one?<

Saint Thomas seen, >Is that a question or a statement?<

The six foot, six inches, tall human with lots of muscles holding two really big guns and two thorn whips whipped whip, >Both.<

Saint Thomas smiled, >I work out.<

The six foot, six inches, tall human with lots of muscles holding a really big gun and a thorn whip walked to Saint Thomas and seen, >So do I.<

The six foot, six inches, tall human with lots of muscles strapped gun to back and whip to side. The muscles pulsed.

The six foot, six inches, tall human with lots of muscles strapped gun to back and whip to side lowered arms and grabbed the axe handle with both hand and seen to all, >See this,< and pulled upon axe. Muscles pulsed and grew. The jaw clenched, and a slow rumbled erupted from with in. The six foot, six inches, tall human with lots of muscles let loose a scream, „REAAAAAAAAAAAAAA...," as muscles pulsed and grew, and the six foot, six inches, tall human with lots of muscles pulled and pulled and pulled upon axe handle. Until...

SNAP! The handle broke and flew up and hit head of the six foot, six inches, tall human with lots of muscles in the head. The six foot, six inches, tall human fell to the stone ground of "Big Hole".

Saint Thomas smiled and swallowed the gun and whip.

The human warrior slave said with the English Kant, „Why did you swallow those?"

Saint thomas said „Because someone could get killed."

„OK, Now What?" said the human warrior slave.

„We are going borrow a pick from a human warrior slave that is near a guard. I will slam the pick as I have done with my axe," said Saint Thomas. Saint Thomas jerked head so hat slid over eyes, "After I ask to borrow your pick." Saint Thomas said, "What is your name?"

„I know not," said the poor human warrior slave, "I have been a slave too long."

„May I borrow your pick?" Said Saint Thomas.

The warrior slave said, „Yes."

Saint Thomas flowed to fifty meters to another guard. Saint Thomas lifted the pick and slammed the pick into the stone ground. A human guard with lots of muscles and two guns and two whips seen, >You a strong one?<

Saint Thomas said, „Yes."

The human guard with muscles and two guns and two whips said, „Well, so am I," and strapped whips and guns to back and side. The human guard with muscles and two guns and two whips pulled on handle of pick and pulled on handle of pick and pulled on handle of pick then POP!. The handle broke, and the guard was knocked out.

Saint Thomas smiled and said, „See."

The hunan warrior slave pointed to the guns and whips, „Are you going to swallow those?"

Saint Thomas swallowed the whips and guns.

The human warrior slave smiled, „How many can you swallow?"

Saint Thomas said, „All of them?"

„Where will they go?"

„I don't know." Saint Thomas jerked head toward a tall guard with lots of muscles, said, "I am a special United States of Eden agent. I work for the C.I.A.. I have been trained to eat anything and made to eat everything."

„Wow," said the human warrior slave.

„Wow is right," said Saint Thomas as Saint Thomas lead the way to the next guard with lots of muscles.

Saint Thomas and the human warrior slave approached a slave by a guard with lots of muscles. The human warrior slave asked to brow the slave's pick. The human warrior slave gave the pick to Saint Thomas. Saint Thomas slammed the head of the pick half way into the ground. The guard with lots of muscles came over to Saint Thomas and the human warrior slave and seen, >You think you are a tough one?< The guard with lots of muscles pulled and pulled and pulled on the handle until the handle broke, and the handle hit the guard in the head. The guard with lots of muscles fell to the ground.

Saint Thomas and the human warrior slave smiled to another. And went from guard to guard to guard to guard to guard to guard to guard to guard to guard to guard until all one thousand and one guards where knocked out, and their whips and guns swallowed by Saint Thomas.

The human warrior slave said, „Wow. You can eat." After the last of the whips and guns had been swallowed by Saint Thomas.

Saint Thomas smiled, „Yes, I can."

The human warrior slave point to the thin long shaft that lead to the rim of the "Big Hole" 13,000 meters above, „Now What?"

Saint Thomas let a smile grow across his face, „Follow me?" Saint Thomas and the human warrior slave flowed through the other slaves, across the bottom of the "Big Hole" and to the base of the long black shaft.

The human warrior slave said, „Saint Thomas, the shaft is wide enough for only one person to go up or down the shaft. How can we all get up the shaft before they shut the shaft off and surround the shaft with the 10,000 guards with lots of muscles waiting above at the other end of the shaft""

Saint Thomas smiled and flowed to the long black shaft.

The human warrior slave said, „How?"

Saint Thomas smiled, „Getting to the top is easy, my friend."

The human warrior slave said, „But how?"

Saint Thomas flowed up to the entrance to the bottom of black shaft and to the big black steel door to the black shaft. Saint Thomas knocked upon the steel door.

A hollow echo echoed around the "Big Hole".

<HELLO!< seen Saint Thomas.

Saint Thomas's 'Hello' echoed in the minds around the Big Hole.

Saint Thomas knocked upon the big black steel door and seen, >|HELLO!<

A small slit in the big black steel door opened with a sliding noise. Two glowing yellow eyes appeared in the slit. >What do you want,< seen the eyes from behind the big black steal door.

Saint Thomas seen to the human warrior slave and the glowing yellow eyes, >I was just seeing with my friend here that I bet I could climb the ladder from the bottom to the top faster than anyone in the 'Big Hole'<

The glowing eyes V'd, ?Oh' seems we have someone who thinks they can climb better than me.<

>Not just you,< seen Saint Thomas, >|But everyone.<

>Oh YEAH!< seen the glowing eyes.

>Yeah,< seen Saint Thomas, >|In fact, I think I can climb better than you and everyone else down in the "Big Hole".<

The guard laughed and seen, >NO, YOU CAN'T.<

>Yes, I can.<

>No you can't.<

>Yes, I can.<

>Then PROVE IT,< seen the guard behind the big black door.

>You first,< seen Saint Thomas.

>You first,< seen the guard with lots of muscles behind the door.

>You first,< seen Saint Thomas.

>You first.<

>I know,< seen Saint Thomas, >|To prove which one of us is the best climber out of everyone, and because we can't decide who should go first, we should let the slaves go first.<

The yellow eyes disappeared. Silence fell in the minds of Saint Thomas and the human warrior slave. And the door opened.

The door slowly swung open to reveal a a human guard with lots of muscles and two whips and two guns pointed at Saint Thomas and the human warrior slave. The guard jerked head back and seen, >Behind me is the ladder you think you can climb faster than me.<

>Yes I do!< seen Saint Thomas with exclamation and a smile.

The human guard with lots of muscles flexed his muscles and laughed, >You fool. I am the ladder guard because I climb faster than anyone.<

Saint Thomas shook head, >Only other guards.< Saint Thomas nodded back to the human warrior slaves in the "Big Hole", >|What about everyone else?<

The human guard with lots of muscles scratched head with the tip of a gun. He looked behind to the ladder then looked to Saint Thomas then behind Saint Thomas standing on his toes to see the human warrior slaves in the "Big Hole". The human with lots of muscles and guns seen, >So?<

>So?< seen Saint Thomas. Saint Thomas flowed back and seen, >|So, you are fast when it comes to some people, but not others.< Saint Thomas flowed toward the open black door and leaned toward the human guard with lots of muscle, >|So you don't know if you are the fastest.<

The human guard with lots of muscles starred at Saint Thomas.

...The human guard with lots of muscles starred at Saint Thomas...

Saint Thomas smiled again and jerked head back, <How about you go first. And then it will just need to climb after you and show you I am faster then you will be a loser.<

The human guard slowly shook head side to side seeing, >No,< Then focusing upon Saint Thomas he quick shook head. The yellow eyes flowing to the human warrior slave >|They go first.< The human guard with lots of muscles flexed and pointed both guns at Saint Thomas, >|What do you think about that?<

Saint Thomas let out a mental sigh, >OK, I guess, but you go before I go.<

>No,< seen the guard, >|You go first. I go last because that is easier.<

Saint Thomas look up along the black shaft to the top of the "Big Hole" and seen, <How about the human warrior slaves go first and then I will go and then you go?<

The human guard with lots of muscles scratched chin and shook head up and down, seen, >OK.<

The door opened wide and the human guard with lots of muscles picked pressed a button and seen, >There are some human warrior slaves on their way up.< He pressed another button an seen (the words echoing in the head of all the human warrior slave), >Form a line to the door.<

As soon as the echo of the site left the human warrior slaves' minds, a line began to form. The line twisted and turned at the bottom of the "Big Hole".

The human guard with lots of muscles pointed to the the human warrior slave who had helped Saint Thomas subdue the other guards and seen, >You first, slave.<

He bowed he head and walked into the dark black building disappearing into is dark darkness.

The echo of, >|GO,< faded from the minds of all around. The sound of hands and feet scrambling up a ladder faded. The human guard with lots of muscles seen, >|You next,< to the next human warrior slave in line.

Thousands of GOs later, Saint Thomas and the human guard with lots of muscles stared at one another.

Saint Thomas smiled, >My turn?<

The guard with lots of muscles and two whips and two guns smiled, seen, >Yes.<

Saint Thomas flowed into the black room. The door shut and there was darkness with two yellow eyes of the guard.

The seen, >|Go!<

Saint Thomas reached out for the ladder with mouth but missed. In the darkness, Saint Thomas was unable to see anything.

The guard laughed, seen, >|I moved the ladder loser.<

Saint Thomas jumped back against the door opening. Light shined inside the black room making it light showing Saint Thomas the new position of the base of the ladder.

Saint Thomas leaped, latched the mouth to the ladder, then began using it to climb the ladder. First the top jaw of mouth would catch a step and pull Saint Thomas up. Then the lower jaw of mouth would lift Saint Thomas up so the upper jaw of mouth could reach another step. Saint Thomas slowly climbed up the ladder.

The guard with lots of muscles below laughed and made fun of Saint Thomas seeing, <|YOU FOOL. I AM THE FASTEST CLIMBER HERE. I WILL BEAT YOUR TIME SO EASLY I MAY EVEN USE ONE HAND AND ONE FOOT SO I YOU DON'T LOOK LIKE A FOOL.<

But still Saint Thomas climbed the ladder. First the upper jaw of mouth pulling Saint Thomas up. Them the lower jaw of mouth pulling Saint Thomas up.

And still the guard with lots of muscles would taunt Saint Thomas by seeing, >|YOU ARE SLOW,< or >|YOU ARE A LOSER,> or <|MY GRAND DAD CAN CLIMB FASTER.<

After what seemed like an eternity, Saint Thomas seen the light at the end of the very very very very long tunnel.

Saint Thomas's jaws of mouth were about to give out when he reached the top and crawled out of the very very very very long tunnel.

The human warrior slave who befriend Saint Thomas walked from the crowd and bent down toward Saint Thomas and seen, >You are going to lose, Saint Thomas.<

Saint Thomas rolled on to back and seen, >No, I am not,< and Saint Thomas closed the cover to the top of the very very very very long tunnel.

A cheer erupted from the thousands of human warrior slaves. Then a chorus of them seen to everyone, >How will we get back down the tunnel to the bottom of the whole!<

Saint Thomas shook his head side to side and sighed and said, „Stupid humans."

The humand warrior slave replied with the English kant, „Yes, we are a very stupid race," and smiled and helped Saint Thomas to up.

Saint Thomas looked around at the thousands of free humans slaves and the few humand guards with lots of muscles who were starting to lay down their guns and run away into the hot desert around the "Big Hole". Saint Thomas seen, to all >IT IS TIME FOR US TO TURN OUR MINDS AWAY FROM BLOOD DIAMONDS AND GO HOME AND LIVE IN PEACE AND NO LONGER KILL FOR BLOOD DIAMONDS.<

The thousands of human warrior slaves cheer and scream as best they good which wasn't very good, „NO, BLOOD DIAMONDS! NO, BLOOD DIAMONDS! NO, BLOOD DIAMONDS! NO, BLOOD DIAMONDS! NO, BLOOD DIAMONDS! NO, BLOOD DIAMONDS! NO, BLOOD DIAMONDS!"

As the thousands fo human warrior slaves began to leave the rim of the "Big Hole", the human warrior slave who befriend Saint Thomas reached underneath his rags and pulled forth a shinny blood diamond and said, „For you, Saint Thomas."

The blood diamond sparkled in the sun and the shine was seen by all.

The thousands of human warrior slaves and the human guards with lots of muscles rushed Saint Thomas and his friend all seeing, >A BLOOD DIAMOND!<

Saint Thomas knocked the blood diamond from the hand of the human warrior slave who befriend Saint Thomas. The blood diamond fell to the ground. Saint Thomas lifted is head high and brought his head down upon the blood diamond smashing the blood diamond to dust.

With a gust of wind, the blood diamond dust flew over the edged of the "Big Hole" followed by thousands of human warrior slaves and the human guards with lots of muscles.

As the last human fell to thier death, human warrior slave who befriend Saint Thomas flowed to the edge of the "Big Hole" with Saint Thomas. Saint Thomas look down then look back and began to flow away in to the desert.

The human warrior slave who befriend Saint Thomas stared down into the "Big Hole" and said the only thing that could be said, „Stupid humans," and flowed with Saint Thomas into the desert.
