Steve and the rest of the team were rotting inside a cell with many others. Alice was also there. Steve and Alice hugged each other. Both of them had tiny tears in their eyes. It was like they met after a very long time. Alice exchanged hellos with everyone and then she told them why she was brought there.
Story Page Chapterwise -> The Undiscovered
Alice was part of a ritual that Colonel Bellamy was going to do on the midnight of 12 February 2012. He was going to summon all the spirits he can find in that moment and then command them with the help of the pink crystal that Steve bought Alice for their anniversary.
The pink crystal was an old object of a civilization who used to enslave the dead by killing a few people and finally sacrificing a pure soul which summoned the spirits and the holder of the pink crystal was given the power of commanding them.
It was lost centuries ago but it resurfaced and Bellamy was tracking it since then. Now he has fooled a team to work with him. He would kill each of them in the end as well.
When Alice was finished, Steve asked, “How do you know all this?”
“Bellamy was interested in me. He summoned me into his office where I found this book of rituals. We have to get out of here!”
“Where is he going to do the ritual?” asked Ethan.
The Help
A familiar voice spoke from out of the cell. “He’s going to carry out the ritual tonight in the grounds. He’s already made the circle.”
Everybody turned to look at the guest speaker. It was Sandra.
“Motherfucking bitch! I’m going to kill you!” said Sheldon.
“I’m sorry everybody. I didn’t know that Bellamy was up to some crappy ritual. He made us believe that all of you are essential for a research of national importance. I’m the only one that can help you guys right now.”
“What makes you think we’re gonna trust you again?” said Courtney.
“You don’t have any other choice sweety. There is no other way of getting out of this cell except from the key I’m holding in my hands.”
“We’ll find another way, go to hell.” said Rachel.
“Think again. You know he’ll kill each and everyone of you!”
“Guys let’s be rational. This is our only way of getting out safely. Let her help us.” said Steve.
“I’m sure she has some kind of price for that too.” said Alice.
“I’m afraid you are right Alice. If I get all of you out you have to promise me that you’ll stop Bellamy.”
After a small group discussion they agreed.
