Oh, it not that bad. Do you know the temple of Lasra is the oldest in the world. It is also...
charlie
(Starts to walk away)
panos
(follows him )where are you going ?
charlie
(continues to walk deeper into the forest . Stops at a rock near the stream. Sits on the rock and brings out his earpiece , connects it's to his phone but suddenly hears a noise and looks back)
charlie
(stands up)what are you two doing here ?
panos
I just wanted to follow you?
charlie
And you brought a friend ?
panos
When did you follow me ??
eliyahu
I saw you walking away, so I was wondering what you were up to.
panos
I didn't know you're one of our classmates.
eliyahu
Why don't we introduce ourselves .
panos
Right , hi I'm panos.
eliyahu

panos
Oh! We're just knowing he each other for the first time.
eliyahu

panos

charlie
(stops and faces them ) No! No you're not. I'll go first , when I'm out of your sight then you move, okay ?
charlie
(begins to walk away. After walking for a really long walk) but I didn't go that far from the bus.(walks again for a long time) it seems I'm lost.(looks back)you two again ?
panos
We didn't know the out so we had to follow you.
charlie
(falls on his knees ) God what did I do to deserve this?first the bus and now lost in the woods with this morons (crying)

Lost 2
They had walking for a long time and they finally sat on top of the trunk of a tree
panos
(drops his bag and opened it)
panos
(brings out a book and opens it)
charlie
What book is that ?
panos
Just a book I borrowed to learn more about the temple we're to visit today.
eliyahu
You think everything about that temple is real ?
panos
Yes (opens the book towards the end of the book and begins to read for a while)*gasps*
panos
All this place....it all makes sense now
eliyahu
What makes sense??
panos
The forest...the temple...it does it does
Eliyahu and Charlie looks at each other confused
panos
(Begins to laugh hard )
eliyahu
(slaps him hard and holds Panos face) what is wrong with you?
panos
Oh sorry, I think I got a little distracted, I think
panos
I found something about the temple we're to visit today.
The cabin
panos
I found out that the temple might have something to do with this forest we're in right now.
charlie
This book is from our school library, isn't it? So.....
charlie
So this book is just a close copy of real book. That's if the real book is even real.
panos
Okay first, this book is the real deal, okay. It not from our school library, it from a museum. I went to the museum a day before now to learn more about the temple and I... borrowed the book.
charlie
Borrowed? from a museum?(scoffed) you stole it.
panos
No, I didn't. I just borrowed it for a while and I was planning to return it.
charlie
Really? Then how come it was inside your bag the whole time.
panos
That because I was planning to return it after the visit to the temple.
charlie
You were planning to return it but you stole it.
charlie
Just admit that you stole it.
panos
It just like when you borrow something except without asking.
charlie
Exactly, that's stealing.
panos
No, it not stealing...
Panos and Charlie Keeps on arguing.
eliyahu
(shouts) Can you two stop? We need to get out of here soon, it already getting dark.
charlie
He's right, we can't just keep on arguing over this. So just admit you stole it.
panos
Okay, fine I stole it
eliyahu
So, how do we get out of here.
panos
I don't think we're getting out of here anytime soon.
panos
This forest is supposed to be a village, well it was a village a long time ago. That temple we're to visit today was also part of it.
eliyahu
So what happened to it ?
eliyahu
A spirit was released and it caused it extinction. No one knows who released it.
charlie
(clears his throat) so, how has that helped us out of here?
panos
Well, we getting lost is also part of the curse of the spirit. Many historians and other innocent people has gotten lost in that same area our bus broke down, well,...
eliyahu
So, that means anybody who goes to the temple is supposed to get lost?
panos
No, the spirit never reached the temple. I found out that the book I took from the library that something was protecting it. No one can ever get in.
eliyahu
That means we would be standing their for hours if we weren't lost
panos
Yeah and listening to lectures.
charlie
If you think about it, wouldn't it be better if Mr. Henry had shown us a pic of the temple rather than taking us their to stand for hours.
eliyahu
Probably under the sun, kind of boring.
charlie
I think we should be more glad about being lost.(rests his back on the bark of the tree)
panos
If I were you, I wouldn't be, cause if we don't get out of here fast we're doomed.
charlie
Wait! How do we we even get out of here?
panos
Everything we need should be inside this book. (looks at the book and continues reading but later opens to the last page of the book) Their it is.
panos
The map (they begin to follow the map)
charlie
Isn't it a little too straight forward. I was expecting something like a riddle or something.
eliyahu
Yeah! Something like that.
panos
I don't know but this is the real book discovered by historians. It has everything about the temple and the village. Do you know historians found it hidden beside the temple??
charlie
Please stop talking.
(They walked for a while and beside a rock)
eliyahu
I don't see a door
panos
(places his hand on his forehead and nods his head )Their is no door, this is where we're going to start the journey.
charlie
So all this time we weren't even started.
panos
What do you expect? The journey is just going to star where ever you are?
charlie
(peeps at the book) how do you even understand that thing? Let me guess, this isn't your first time?
eliyahu
Let get somewhere safe it getting dark.
panos
Let get going, their should be a cabin up ahead. It getting dark.
eliyahu
I thought you said it wasn't far.
panos
Well, if you had walked fast like I told you to......
charlie
(interrupts him)we don't have time, let just get in.
They all get inside the old and weak cabin
eliyahu
(looks around) this place looks like it centuries old.
panos
(speaking silently) how else will it look like, this village existed years ago. You guys should speak silently or else this whole place might collapse, I think.( brings out a touch light from his bag and put it on)
eliyahu
(Looks around and sees a human figure on the window. He quickly snatches the touch light from Panos and points it to the window)
panos
(silently)hey, why did you....?
eliyahu
(places his finger on Panos lips ) shhhhh. (in a whisper)I saw something.
panos
(curious face)saw what?? (muffled voice)
panos
(muffled voice) okay that it ( removes Eliyahu finger which was still on his lips)
eliyahu
But I really did see something
panos
No, you didn't. I know you're just trying to....
They all hear a creaking sound
charlie
(stands up) that's just the wind, right??
panos
their is no other door except for the one we came in with and it closed. This place place is completely empty.
They all hear a knock on the door and see a pair of shoes walking towards them
A door suddenly appears behind them and they all enter it.
charlie
(falls on the floor and stands up. The walls are lighted up a stick lighted with fire) Panos? Eliyahu?
Panos and Eliyahu are also in a place like this but different places
