I Scream Clone Posted March 25, 2010 Posted March 25, 2010 If there is anything worth reading in the hidey hole I would like to read it to everyone.
Hinckley Posted March 25, 2010 Author Posted March 25, 2010 I would like to take a look in the compartment that is apparently empty but also apparently has something in it. If there is anything inside the (empty ) compartment, I'd like to take it out and inspect it. *The voice in the sky had a very long day yesterday Sorry. I will read you the letter that is contained in the empty yet full compartment once I return from work today. Even the voice in the sky has to put food on the table... *
Hinckley Posted March 26, 2010 Author Posted March 26, 2010 *Ingrid picks up the letter and reads it to the group: "I saw Monica Maltese kill Siegfried Harcourt! She and her friend Jonathan Falcon have done a good job at convincing everyone that there's an evil curse on the place, but they sacrificed Mr. Harcourt to do it. I saw them taking gems from a compartment in the Ceremony Chamber. I stole one of the green ones. Hopefully, they'll spare my life for it. They saw me witness the murder and I know they'll do the same when they find me. I hope my bargaining chip works. If not, I hope someone finds this and learns the truth. I hope I live to see my wife and son again. Robert Mantino"*
MagPiesRUs Posted March 26, 2010 Posted March 26, 2010 What did you see? I don't know what to make of this. Outside the temple I saw Stanton, alive and well. Actually, I couldn't tell what it was, but there was certainly something strange about him. At that point he began to run away again. He was being chased by two dark hooded figures. All 3 of them then disappeared around the corner of the temple, so I couldn't make out anything else.

Stanton is up to no good, but why are dudes after him too? More than one crazy faction is at work, or some weird hazing ceremony?
iamded Posted March 26, 2010 Posted March 26, 2010 Madness! I desperately want to believe there is nothing supernatural at force here, that all the things could be rationally explained, but I'm stuck on a few points. Like, when we first opened the library, with the floating crown? Perhaps a hologram, but I didn't see any projectors nearby. You can't exactly hide a projector like that anyway. And what about that man who appeared in the photograph? You know, the one that was all blurry. How could anyone explain that? The murders could have easily been done by crazy cultists, made to look supernatural, but these other things I can't explain. Any ideas anyone?
Zapper Brick Posted March 26, 2010 Posted March 26, 2010 Hmm... Slashy, better get your gun ready... I'd also like to shoot my tranq darts at William Falcon and Penny.
Dannylonglegs Posted March 26, 2010 Posted March 26, 2010 Hmm... Slashy, better get your gun ready... I'd also like to shoot my tranq darts at William Falcon and Penny. No! Not my Will!! I've known him longer than all of you, and he would never ever kill anyone! You're just picking on him because our last name was in the letter! For all we know, this could be a fake letter left by the cultists to confuse us! Please don't shoot my Hubie! *Hugs William tightly*
Svelte Posted March 26, 2010 Posted March 26, 2010 No! Not my Will!! I've known him longer than all of you, and he would never ever kill anyone! You're just picking on him because our last name was in the letter! For all we know, this could be a fake letter left by the cultists to confuse us! Please don't shoot my Hubie! *Hugs William tightly* Why would they bother writing elaborate letters hidden behind elaborate traps just to confuse us, when they can pick us off one by one without any trouble? I'm with the others, any descendants or relatives by blood or marriage of cultists should be corralled up and shot Tranquillisers or real bullets - either works for moi.
Peppermint_M Posted March 26, 2010 Posted March 26, 2010 My Grandmother never told me any of this! I only came for a bit of a getaway with my Zach and to explore somewhere exotic that my grandmother had once been.. All these letters seem very contradictory and strange, just like the boy playing tricks on us.
Svelte Posted March 26, 2010 Posted March 26, 2010 All these letters seem very contradictory and strange, just like the boy playing tricks on us. What is this? 'The Shining'? If all the jewels are gone from the temple, then why bother to go through this elaborate masquerade? Either their really is something supernatural at work, or there is a more pragmatic reason for these convoluted games. Perhaps the cultists are using our collective intelligence to go through all these myriad unsolved puzzles in the hope we will uncover even MORE treasures! In which case, we should sit here and do nothing at all to not give them the satisfaction. I still say we shoot any relatives first.
Hinckley Posted March 26, 2010 Author Posted March 26, 2010 Hmm... Slashy, better get your gun ready... I'd also like to shoot my tranq darts at William Falcon and Penny. *Sandy tranqs Penny and William.* *Penny and William slump to the ground. Their pissed off loved ones tend to them.*
Dragonator Posted March 27, 2010 Posted March 27, 2010 *Sandy tranqs Penny and William.**Penny and William slump to the ground. Their pissed off loved ones tend to them.* What the hell did you do that for!? Now we're going to be stuck sitting here until they recover you moron. Talk about thinking before acting!! My wife... if she was paying attention... would not be happy about this! Feel the wrath of my manliness!
Shadows Posted March 27, 2010 Posted March 27, 2010 *Sandy tranqs Penny and William.**Penny and William slump to the ground. Their pissed off loved ones tend to them.* Well, that was stupid. Or maybe not. Let's search their pockets while they're unconscious. It might go a long way to proving whether or not they are involved in this whole situation, and as they are unconscious and I have this loaded revolver to discourage interference from their relatives, I think that's exactly what we will do now.

Yeah I don't mind doing that, I do know that William has had an interest in this place in the past. Diesel helps Sheldon search the pockets of the unconscious to see if there is anything cult-ish looking, while also making sure Sheldon doesn't happen to slip a wallet up his sleeve.
Ricecracker Posted March 27, 2010 Posted March 27, 2010 Can anyone see if they're carrying knapsacks or bags, either? It wouldn't hurt to go through those either.

Sir Dillon Posted March 27, 2010 Posted March 27, 2010 How long has Sandy had the gun? I thought Fred was in possession of it.
fallentomato Posted March 27, 2010 Posted March 27, 2010 How long has Sandy had the gun? I thought Fred was in possession of it. She got it at the bus, Sheldon got the revolver and I have a rifle. She now has 3 darts remaining I believe. I have to say I don't disagree with her action. The fact that Penny and William's relatives were doing bad things here before does cast suspicion on them. We should definitely check their persons for suspicious materials. *Goes over to help the search* Does anyone have any rope? Maybe we should tie them up so that when they come to we can question them. Maybe we could take the chain off the bike and use that to tie their hands behind their backs?

Looking at the stone, he realizes that it is a rather bright gem.* *Goes over to help the search* *Fred pulls a dark gem out of the pocket of William's coat.*
Svelte Posted March 27, 2010 Posted March 27, 2010 Dark gem? Ut-oh. I suggest we tie up William whilst we still can and then tickle a confession out of him once he awakes. If that doesn't work, we can set the rapist on him until he confesses, as is the way in my country
Shadows Posted March 27, 2010 Posted March 27, 2010 a dark gem Oh ho! What? No, not you dear, I was expressing surprise at the latest discovery. So, it seems there might be some truth to all of this after all, at least the gems and theft parts. I'd like to examine that gem closely to see if anything seems to be moving inside it.
fallentomato Posted March 27, 2010 Posted March 27, 2010 *Shows Sheldon the gem so he can satisfy his curiosity* I think I will keep a hold on this gem. Seems the best way to keep it secure from the cultists. I'm trained in hand to hand combat so it will be hard for anyone to take me down. William was one of the people who separated from hte group back before Jack was killed. But I think Penny has been here the whole time. I'm less suspicious of her. But clearly they are both hiding something. *Goes to the bike to remove the chain so we have something to tie William up with*
Dannylonglegs Posted March 27, 2010 Posted March 27, 2010 Just because he's got a Dark Gem doesn't mean he's evil! It was probably just an heirloum from his father! He has a few of those! It could have been planted on him too! *stands over unconsious William like Neytiri in Avatar, hissing* He's Innocent! DJ, help me out here. You know your Father, tell your Deisal, he's innocent!
