Ep 4
INT. LUCAS'S HOUSE - DAY
Several weeks have passed since the harrowing encounter with Colei. Lucas, Emma, and Jason are trying to resume normalcy, haunted by their memories but determined to move forward. They sit in Lucas's living room, discussing recent events.
Jason
Do you think it's really over? Colei seemed... connected to something deeper.
Emma
I keep having nightmares. What if there are others like him, seeking vengeance?
Lucas
The police have him in custody. They'll figure it out.
Just then, Detective Ryan arrives unexpectedly, interrupting their conversation.
INT. LUCAS'S LIVING ROOM - CONTINUOUS
Detective Ryan
I need to talk to you three.
They exchange worried glances, sensing more trouble.
INT. POLICE STATION - DAY
Lucas, Emma, and Jason sit in a small, dimly lit interrogation room, facing Detective Ryan
Detective Ryan
Colei's confession has opened up a Pandora's box. The ritual you encountered, it's part of a darker history in this town.
Detective Ryan
Years ago, a cult practiced rituals here, sacrificing children to gain power. They were believed to have been stopped, but Colei's appearance suggests otherwise.
Jason
We set them free... the children trapped in those rituals.
Lucas
And now, someone or something connected to that cult is seeking revenge.
EXT. ABANDONED RITUAL SITE - DUSK
The trio, alongside Detective Ryan, stands at the edge of the forest where the ritual site once stood. They see remnants of ancient symbols carved into the trees and overgrown ruins.
Detective Ryan
This is where it all began. We need to understand what's been unleashed.
They cautiously enter the forest, navigating through the eerie silence, searching for clues that might explain Colei's motives and the potential resurgence of the cult's influence.
INT. ABANDONED RITUAL SITE - NIGHT
Under the moonlight, they discover a hidden chamber beneath the ruins, filled with ancient artifacts and unsettling symbols.
Emma
What kind of place is this?
Lucas
Look at these drawings... it's like a chronicle of suffering.
As they delve deeper, they find an old journal detailing the rituals performed, including names and dates that match those of the children they inadvertently liberated.
INT. ABANDONED RITUAL SITE - FINAL REVELATION
In the depths of the chamber, they uncover a mural depicting Colei and others, their faces twisted in agony.
Jason
Colei... he was one of them.
Detective Ryan
They were bound by the ritual, trapped in torment until your intervention.
The ground shakes, and eerie whispers fill the air. Shadows converge, forming a spectral image of figures long gone but forever tied to the site.
Emma
We have to end this... for good.
INT. ABANDONED RITUAL SITE - FINAL CONFRONTATION
Lucas, Emma, Jason, and Detective Ryan stand in a circle, reciting words of release and redemption, trying to break the cycle of suffering that binds the spirits to the site.
Spirit
Forgive us... Please set us free.
The air clears, and the whispers fade. The spirits dissipate, finally finding peace.
EXT. ABANDONED RITUAL SITE - DAWN
The morning sun rises over the horizon as Lucas, Emma, Jason, and Detective Ryan emerge from the forest, exhausted but relieved.
Lucas
I think It's really over this time.
Emma
I hope so... for their sake.
They walk away from the forest, leaving behind the shadows of the past, knowing they've confronted darkness and emerged stronger together.
