Scorpio was a terminally-ill, international terrorist whose soul had been removed from him at a very early age. As a final act before his death, Scorpio sought a high-profile murder that would get him remembered for decades. The killing of a U.S. president. Scorpio knew the assassination would finally earn him the respect of Osama Bin Laden, who had disrespected and belittled him. Everything in the execution of the murder plot was going as planned until Richard Thomas interfered.


Richard Thomas was a laid-off electrical engineer from the small city of Erie, Pennsylvania. He had a deep disdain for religion or anything spiritual. During a trip to Israel, Richard, while looking for a non-religious antique, unknowingly purchased four powerful Biblical antiquities from an antique store. After a terror attack in Washington, D.C. that fatally wounded his niece, Richard blamed God for the terror attack. In response, God teaches Richard a lesson using Scorpio and the antiquities.
