The Forbidden Script by Richard Brockwell Page A

shadow continued swirling around the girl, when suddenly her body began to levitate just a few inches above the ground. It held there for over a minute, floating in midair. The swirling stopped, and the shadow was now taking the form of a man. It was still above the girl, then without warning it descended, wrapping itself around the girl’s body, making a loud growling sound when suddenly it disappeared into the night.
    Tony stopped the chants, and the girl’s dead body fell to the ground. All was silent. Tony could not believe what had just happened. His first reaction was to go and see if the girl was alright. Travis and the others came out of their hypnotic state. They saw Tony kneeling next to the lifeless girl. None of them had any recollection of what went on around them. Travis rushed over to Tony.
    “What happened? Is she okay?” He asked.
    Tony leaned over her mouth to check her breathing, but could not hear anything. He then tried to find a pulse. Nothing.
    He said, “I believe she’s dead Travis! It killed her!”
    “What do you mean killed her? What killed her? There’s nothing else here but us!” said Travis.
    Tony tried to explain. “It seemed to suck the life out of her! A dark force took her life. It all happened so fast. It was strong Travis. Real powerful energy!”
    Travis then held the girl in his arms.
    “What are we going to do Tony? We have to tell someone!”
    “Tell who Travis? The police? No one will believe us! Do you want to end up in prison?” Said Tony.
    Travis gently laid the girl’s body on the sand.
    “We have to get out of here then,” he said.
    The other girls wept while collecting their belongings, and left the beach. Sarah Masters was about to leave when Tony grabbed her by the arm.
    “Sarah! Remove her clothing. Make it look like she went for a night swim and ran into trouble. Leave her wearing nothing but her underwear,” Tony said.
    Travis helped Sarah undress the dead girl, and placed her face down in the sand.
    Sarah then turned to Travis.
    “We’re not going to get away with this Travis! We didn’t kill her, yet we are to blame.”
    She got up and ran to her car, looking back at the lifeless body as she drove away.
    While driving home, Tony said to Travis.
    “What I saw tonight was something else. I know there exist good and bad spirits, but this one was different, it was pure evil Travis. I could feel its energy all around me as I read the ancient text. I believe we’re onto something huge. I need professor Shireberg to complete all the translations. We’re not stopping here. I’m going all the way.”
     
    Travis kept silent on the journey back to Tony’s house. He had no choice but to keep quiet about what happened tonight.

    It was around nine in the morning when Jason arrived at the scene. He could see Danny inspecting the dead girl’s body that lay lifeless in the sand.
    “Morning Danny, have you found anything?” Inquired Jason.
    Danny stood up. “No, nothing unusual. No foul play or markings on the body, nothing.”
    Jason saw the forensic team and coroner pulling up against the side of the road.
    “Check again, make sure we haven’t missed anything before these guys take the body to the morgue.” Insisted Jason.
    Soon the forensic experts were on the scene snapping photographs and swabbing the body.
    Jason called over to Danny.
    “Hey Danny, I need a coffee, you coming?”
    Both agents entered their vehicles and drove back to town where they usually meet at a local cafe. Jason ordered his usual large black coffee, while Danny prefers a strong espresso.
    Jason said, “Danny, hear me out. We need to get some results about Helen’s disappearance. I don’t know if that dead girl’s death has anything to do with Helen’s kidnapping. We need to keep busy, anything we find could be useful right now before Matt starts breathing down our necks.”
    Hearing his cell phone ring,
