Ay! What are you doing here?
Lily?
Yes, hear me out, please. Whatever you are doing, it's not right, this all is fake.
Shut up, don't you dare call him fake, he is the king, the God, you don't disrespect him if he gets angry he'll kill you just like he killed Harry.
Oh, really, where is he then? Why would he want you to kill yourself to give you a new life, I mean what's the point? Don't believe Geordie, he is trying to manipulate you guys, trust me.
Just shut up, I said, and go away or I'll kill you myself.
[A hand touches Ellyn's shoulder]
She freakingly turns around, shit, Jones (breathing heavily hugs Jones) you freaked me out
Are you okay?
Yes, (kissing his cheeks)
Lily starts shouting at him, just hear me out once. Please, don't do this, this is all fake.
(wind starts blowing harder)
Shut up! You are upsetting him, go away let me complete my duty. (shouts the guy) He stands in the circle, shouts I'll be alive again don't worry and cuts his wrist.
No, (shouts Lily) she runs towards him.
(Ellyn and Jones runs towards him too)
Jones! (she cries) help him, Jones.
(Jones calls 911)
Hey, Ellyn hugs Lily, he will be okay.
Who is he, Lily?
(in breaking voice) I don't know, some friend of Geordie's. This is all his fault, I don't know why he is doing this.
How is it his fault?
That day you came to my home, he was going to come, he was threatening me.
For what?
He asked me to do something for him, something bad and I denied it, he broke up with me and he was threatening me that if I told somebody about this, I'll die just the way Harry died.
So, do you mean he had something to do with Harry's death?
Something? I think, he was the one who killed him.
Really? You think he is capable of something like this? asks Jones
Of course, who do you think asked this guy to kill himself?
I believe her, says Ellyn. I heard them talking.
I don't think he's breathing, says Jones.
He's not, crys Lily.
What will we tell sheriff? asks Ellyn.
I'll take care of him, but you can't tell them anything about Geordie and all of this.
Why not?
Because if he or any of our parents get involved in this, the school will shut down.
What? why?
Because it was the beginning of all of this, all these people who are dying are our age, this all happened before too and they were about to shut down the school but somehow our parents did something and all this was vanished.
Yeah, we know the story. But do you know what happened that night?
I don't know, my father never talks about his cases but I know he has this case opened in his room, if you want I can get those files for you.
[Ellyn and Jones look at each other]
Umm, no actually we already have them.
What? How?
Ah! I think police is here, we should go.
Yeah, okay. Bye.
Thanks Lily.
[Ellyn and Jones at Jones's house]
(dingding - dingding)
This is 10th call I guess, answer him Ellyn.
And what should I say? I don't want to talk to you or I am investigating a murder?
Anything! At least tell him you're safe.
I don't want to do that, or he'll think he won. I have already told my mom I'll be out today, I'll come late. He is doing this to get me forgive him.
Well, why don't you?
What? Forgive him? For real?
Yes, I mean he is trying to be good.
Well, that's true but only because he wants me to support him in the elections or people will think if he can't manage his own family how will he manage this town.
Elections? Your father is running for mayor?
Yes. Anyways, I am not getting into his game again, please let's just get over with this reincarnation thing.
Okay, Do you remember the tattoo I showed you, the stone one!?
Yes, with that uglo?
Yes, whosoever is thinking of this stupid stuff as real, he would definitely try to find the stone.
How could you be so sure? Maybe he already have it.
Well, he can not have it because if he did, he wouldn't wait so long as according to the documents from sheriff's research, you can not have that stone, if you don't have power of 10.
Power of ten? Does that mean 10 sacrifices?
Yes. And then you have to find the stone which is hidden somewhere in black water.
Black water?
Yes, what can be black water?
I don't know, should we talk to Geordie about this?
Why would he tell you! I think, somebody else is involved in this too, or how would Gordie know about all this?
Yeah! You're right, but who is involved?
Somebody who was part of this before too, from our parents' group.
I think we should talk to your mother again.
[Ellyn exhales] Yeah, we should. I am going home now, we'll talk to her tomorrow?
Yeah, I thought you were staying. (kisses her)
I should go or she'll come finding me.
Okay, good night.
Good night.
[Next day]
Mom, can I ask you something?
Yes honey, of course, what is bothering you?
Please promise me, you won't hide anything out.
What? I never hide anything from you.
Oh, really? Stop lying, I know that the story you told about that reincarnation thing was not true.
[Looks weirdly] It was true, and where did this topic come from again? I told you to stop looking for such stuff.
Mom, Mom please tell me the whole thing because my friends are stuck in this and I want to help.
But I don't want you to be stuck too, Ellyn (holding her face) I don't want to lose you.
Mom, you won't lose me. But if you don't tell me this, I won't talk to you.
(Exhales) Okay. Here's what Sheriff and I found from investigating some stuff. (puts some paper on the table) the guy who started this all was not from here, he was never the part of this town.
Then where was he from?
I don't know. He was from somewhere else. And there was something with black water and a map to find it with a stone. And I just remember him saying that it will repeat, I didn't believe him before but I am afraid it did repeat and it has to stop. I'll go to Sheriff today and talk about this, I don't want any of you kids involved in this, do you understand?
Yes, I do, mom. I am going to school now.
Hey Ellyn, where's Jones? asks Lucas
Jones? I thought he is with you.
No, he didn't come with me. He wasn't home, I thought he already left.
Strange. He never missed school before.
Exactly.
Do you want to go and check in? May be he is sick?
Yeah. Of course.
[Knocking the door, ringing bell]
Jones! Jones!
Why is he not opening the door.
Because he is not here. And I am getting worried now.
Weren't you two together last night? asks Lucas
Yes, we were. And he said bye and left, and then he didn't pick up my phone in the morning, it was switched off, I thought he must be out of his battery.
What if he took him?
What? Who?
That thing who killed Harry.
Shut up Lucas, will you? Where'd he go?
I think we should check inside his house, maybe we cab get some lead or something.
Yeah, that's a good idea.
But how will we open this lock.
[Ellyn starts to open the lock with hair clip, unlocks the door]
Like this.
Woah-woah, calm down detective Ellyn.
Look at this, says Lucas.
It's blood.
[They both look at each other]
I am getting more worried now.
May be we should call the cops.
No, what will you tell them that we broke into his house and looked for him but found blood.
But what can we do?
Look at this ( showing the picture of a house)
This is where me and Jones found Harry's body but it was lost later.
Let's go and check here then.
[They go to the old house and shout for Jones]
Jones, are you here?
What is this?
It's like a burn mark or something, this place must be on fire.
But that day, there was nothing like this.
Oh my god.
What!
It is Harry's bracelet. I told the cops, that he was here but nobody believed me. Harry was here.
And so was Jones.
What? How?
Look at this. That tattoo drawing that he was showing us the other day.
What now?
I think we should start from the beginning.
This is stupid, we should definitely call the cops, how are we gonna find him?
What do you think cops will do? Hah? They did nothing for Harry, did they? says Ellyn. We have to do this Lucas, if you don't want to get involved that's okay, I am on my own but you won't call the cops.
Okay, I won't, let's go to Jones house again.
