CHAPTER 2. INTO INN

°

°

( I got home exhausted and carried away by my thoughts, and then It hit me, i realized i made a deal with a weirdo, so i brought the book out to know what it was all about....)

JERRY: What sort of name is *INN*

(Flips some pages and sees some characters and their abilities)

JERRY: Nice characters though.

Hey bro!

(Mavis comes in unexpectedly, and Jerry hurriedly hides the book)

JERRY: hey Sis what's up?

MAVIS: The sky?

JERRY: (Chuckles) Yeah I thought so.

MAVIS: So have you tried your new shoes yet?

JERRY: Nope but I'll try them out tomorrow.

MAVIS: Ok, so I spoke with Micheal today and he asked of you, he was pretty concerned about you though.

JERRY: Micheal doesn't care about me, he doesn't care about anyone.

MAVIS: Don't say that Jerry he does, and it wouldn't hurt to call him big bro sometimes.

JERRY: (Scoffs) Yeah right.

MAVIS: (sighs) Ok I'm off to bed bro.

JERRY: ok goodnight sis.

(Mavis leaves and he sneakishly brings them out again)

JERRY: So what's this tablet supposed to do with the book huh?

(Goes through to fill some information)

(BOOK: The names filled must be one of the characters listed)

JERRY: Ok uh, I choose....kuvlad, nope sounds lame, ohh this character is pretty interesting "RHO"

(He writes down Rho)

(BOOK: place your tablet on your right hand and chant the words written down)

JERRY: What's this, a ritual (yawns) I don't think I can do this.

(He keeps the book and sleeps off)

NEXT DAY

(it was time for the Normal morning routines as usual, and maria seemed like someone who woke up on the wrong side of the bed)

MARIA: Wake up mavis!

MAVIS: (stretches her self) Already up mom.

MARIA: Go wake your siblings.

MAVIS: On it!

( She gets up and heads for Jerry room, but she feels a little quake coming from that direction, and as she goes further it's gets intense..)

MAVIS: (Opens the door) Hey bro what's...

(There's a rumbling in the room which gave her goosebumps and again, she see's the book and the tablet glowing and suspended on air, she freaks out on seeing the remarkable but yet distressing event, she shouts..)

MAVIS: JEREMIAH!!!

(Jerry wakes up and everything stops)

MAVIS: (pants) What is that??

JERRY: (Groans) what?

MAVIS: I just saw a book floating, and your room shaking, what is happening?

JERRY: Nothing to worry about.

MAVIS: What do you mean by that, your room is the only room that is shaking, and filled with weird stuffs.

JERRY: (yawns) You didn't see anything sis, just go wait outside, I'm already up

MAVIS: You know what, I'm gonna tell Mom about this.

JERRY: No please don't, just let this one slide okay?

MAVIS: (Sighs) Get dressed and ready for school.

(Mavis leaves)

AT SCHOOL

(Jerry's attention to the lectures that are going on in class is divided due to the thoughts of the recent incidents, that he cannot explain)

(Bell rings for recess)

CARL: Hey man.

JERRY: Hey Carl

CARL: You seemed pretty off at class today why?

JERRY: Well the thing is I'm having a bad

day man.

CARL: Why?

JERRY: I'm having a bad feeling about the book.

CARL: Yeah me too, i think something weird happened last night, and I'm guessing it's the tablet.

JERRY: Exactly what I experienced this morning, and the worst part is that Mavis got to know about it.

CARL: What! but did she take it seriously?

JERRY: Not really, I took her mind off it, and told her to let it slide.

CARL: (Chuckles) Nice, speaking of which, how far have you gone in reading the book?

JERRY: far? I'm not even done with the the prologue and the preface, that's if it has a preface.

CARL: What!! That's bad for your health bro, cause you made a deal with a weirdo.

JERRY: Bad for my health? that's us man, you and me, we are in this together

CARL: But you made the deal alone.

JERRY: alone? we went there, he gave me a tablet and he also gave you a tablet, and he specifically said "your friend will need you"

CARL: yeah right.

JERRY: But wait, come to think of it, what did he mean by "your friend will need you"

CARL: Yeah he made it look like I don't know that you need me, cause well, who's gonna save your weak ass from danger?

JERRY: (Scoffs) I think he meant more than that man.

CARL: So what are we gonna do??

JERRY: I really don't know, but I brought the book with me.

CARL: We have 3 hours left for the deal remember, and I really need those novels we asked for, and i really need to get a snack, I'm hungry man.

JERRY: For once Carl, can't you think of something other than yourself, aren't you scared of what might happen if we don't get this done?

CARL: (exhale) I guess your right

JERRY: (Sighs) and I think Rita probably hates me for being a dork yesterday.

CARL: Don't say that man, but if it was me I'll definitely hate you bro (chuckles)

JERRY: (groans) you aren't helping the case carl, I think she hates me right now.

(Rita cuts in..)

RITA: Hey guys

(Jerry stares at Rita)

CARL: apparently she doesn't, You know what, Amma go grab some stuffs at the cafeteria.

(Carl leaves and Rita seats)

RITA: (Clears her throat) so i....

JERRY: (Bursts out) I'm so sorry for being such a jerk in front of dax and it's all cause of my stupid condition and I'm also sorry cause I didn't know he was your boyfriend, and Im kinda attracted to you, nooo that came out wrong, the point is I'm sorry.

RITA: You don't have to be, I came here to apologise for the way I walked out on you the other day, and secondly dax is not my boyfriend, and you being attracted to me, that's new (Smiles)

JERRY: just forget I said that.

RITA: So you didn't mean it?

JERRY: No I did, I really do, ok don't forget about it but just act like you know nothing about it..

RITA: (CHUCLES) Ok smart guy.

JERRY: Yeah, so my sister and i got invited to her friends party and now I'm Inviting you to come with me.

RITA: Are you asking me to come with you?

JERRY: Yeah I am

RITA: Like a date?

JERRY: Well I wouldn't call it that but yeah, a date.

RITA: Really smooth Jerry, so when?

JERRY: On Friday.

RITA: That's 2 days from now.

JERRY: Yeah

RITA: Well my schedule seems pretty tight on Friday.

JERRY: Well if you're busy then no problem don't sweat it, it's fine by me

RITA: No, I'll definitely be there by..

JERRY: Friday night by 8

RITA: Okay see you there then..

JERRY: and you too Rita

(Both Smiles Rita leaves and Carl's comes in)

CARL: Bro today's doughnut tastes better that others, wow what a doughnut

JERRY: My Stomach is empty but yet my heart full.

CARL: Somebody is in love!!!!!

JERRY: shhhh stop being silly

HEY NITWIT!!!!

CARL: Oh no

JERRY: Isn't that.

CARL: DAX, run!!

(Dax and some boys Chase's them to the field, but Jerry falls due to the immense stress of running for his life)

JERRY: (wheezes) I can't breath properly, my heart!

(Dax and the other boys shouts in distance)

CARL: Oh no why now? You know you shouldn't stress your lungs! Where is the inhaler?

(Carl tries getting the inhaler but gets knocked down by dax)

DAX: (Laughs) you nitwit want to take my girl right?

CARL: (Groans) give him the inhaler, he needs it.

(Jerry continues wheezing)

DAX: Shut up Carl twinkle toes!!

CARL: It's tizletoe

DAX: I dont care, just shut up and let me finish my speech!

(Carl get's ahold of a baseball bat and hits it on dax's knees, Dax falls down groaning in pain while carl gives Jerry his inhaler, helps him up and they both escape)

(AFTER SCHOOL)

(They both sit around the corner thinking of what to do)

CARL: We have less than 30 minutes to get to the book keeper.

JERRY: I don't think going to is a good idea man.

CARL: Why not?

JERRY: Don't you get it, he's gonna want the book back and also take our money!

CARL: So what are you trying to say?

JERRY: I'm saying we go home, and figure out what the heck is going on with everything.

CARL: Ok so my house or yours?

JERRY: well mine.

CARL: Then your house it is.

(They both head home)

AT HOME

(Jerry unlocks the door and they both go inside)

CARL: So who's home?

JERRY: No one.

CARL: So we have enough privacy for the weird book right?

JERRY: Sort of.

CARL: Ok, so bring it out.

(Jerry brings out the book, flips some pages and tries to explain somethings to Carl)

JERRY: So as you can see, some characters and their abilities are written here?

CARL: Yeah I do.

JERRY: So it says here, that we should place the tablet on our right hands, and chant the words written down here.

CARL: So it's kinda like a ritual or something?

JERRY: Yeah I think so.

CARL: Ok let's do it.

JERRY: Yeah but first you need to fill ur name and stuffs, i already did mine last night.

CARL: (sighs) ok

(Carl fills his own part)

JERRY: Oh I see you chose KUVLAD

CARL: Yeah he seems pretty dope.

JERRY: Ok for the final phase, place your tablet on your hand and chant the words..

CARL: Ok, I'm ready

(BOTH) *GUNTE AH IR GHURMA BAIRI YA SJIBAUK MAKSIB AGUSON "INN"*

CARL: How did we pronounce every single word??

JERRY: I don't know, I'm guessing it's the power of the tablets.

CARL: look! the tablet bears our name.

(The book let's out a very bright glow causing the house to quake)

CARL: What's happening!!?

JERRY: I don't know! but I guess it's the book!

CARL: I don't wanna die!

JERRY: It's the book, quick, close it!!!

(Carl tries so hard to close it, but the Whirlwind from the book is so great that it sucks them up into the book)

(Mavis gets home and finds out that the front door wasn't properly locked, so she comes inside and asks..)

MAVIS: Is anyone home?
