Chapter 1 - Prologue: 8/15/19

PROLOGUE ***

(Since this is supposed to become a webcomic, this will be a script.)

*A man is seen pacing back and forth; He's in a workshop full of papers and wrappers of candy bars*

Cyrus Clemson (the man): *Stops in front of a door that's placed in the middle of his office* You got to work, you just gotta…

*He bangs on the door a few times then hits his head against it.*

Cyrus: *is yelling at the door* Do you know how much I'm giving up just for this? Just for you not to be working?!

*Footsteps can be heard in the background; A small blonde little girl appears*

Eloise (The girl): Daddy… what's wrong?

*Cyrus sighs and turns to face her*

Cyrus: Nothing.. just go back to your room okay?

Eloise: *Is holding a book* I wanted you to read a story for me.

Cyrus: Sweetheart, I'm bu- *He pauses* Which story is it?

Eloise: Sleeping beauty 

Cyrus: I could've sworn your mother mentioned something about an heirloom. Something in a storybook. Give me the book.

*Eloise sadly nods and heads it to him*

Cyrus: Can't believe I stoop this low. Your mother was always a sucker for dumb myths and anything to do with the word, "oocult". Never really tried to see if any of that nonsense was real or not.

*He flings the book around until a small slip of paper falls on the floor*

Cyrus: Tell me Eloise… did your mother ever tell you the story of Leona?

Eloise: *Nods again* Another world where all your dreams come true.

Cyrus: *Steps in front of the door as he reads the slip* Come here.

*Eloise hesitates but walks over to her father*

Cyrus: If this works, I will no longer be the laughing stock of the science community!

*He grabs Eloise's arm and starts to chant*

Habeo tibi et in carne mea ... De sacrifice te hodie ut mens iuvenibus

*Blood starts to creep from under the door*

Eloise: My head hurts. I'm scared! It hurts so bad! Daddy let go!

Habeo tibi et in carne mea ... De sacrifice te hodie ut mens iuvenibus

*Blood starts to drop from Eloise's head and her eyes start to roll back in her head*

Eloise: *falls on the floor; her body twitching* 

Cyrus: *Drops his daughter's arm and bends down checking on her* Come on get up! We need to see if I succeeded.

*He shakes her body*

Cyrus: What the…

*He looks at his hands to see blood*

Cyrus: Eloise? Baby wake up…. this is not funny anymore

*The scene slowly fades out as all we can hear is Cyrus calling out to the dead girl*
