-Ions have passed since the book was created.

The guardians were tasked to keep the book safe in the library

that the public created to give soul that departed too young

a second chance in rebirth.

The book held the power to transcend time and space.

giving the bearer the power to travel to times of birth and death.

War and peace.

Joy and sorrow.

To call loved ones from the grave.

The lower Earth has evil beyond imagining.

Evil that coveted the book for its own various schemes.

The war commenced that lasted for five centuries of bloodshed and slaughter

and ending with the darkness defeated

and a fragile truce struck by the Father, which kept

powers of both darkness and light to their own domains.

However,

not wavered,

the darkness tricked the young girl into obtaining the book for it,

passing as equals.

-Out here from time to time villagers from

around the town say how peaceful our time was.

-Can't wait till we go to the dance. -I know, it's gonna be exciting.

-And we're gonna dance.

-Hey, did you see the baseball game last night?

-Yeah! -Their team got three strikes and was out.

-For the most part, it was.

People playing, laughing, singing and having fun.

-...and all fall down.

-...baker's man. Bake me a cake as fast as you can;

Roll it, pat it, mark it with a "B"

And put it in the oven for baby and me.

-But there was an evil side to the town that

only the ones who lived there knew about it.

-I know you love me! I'm sorry!

-Adulterous!

Whore!

-I didn't mean to do it...

-You're gonna see how sorry you're going to be!

-I didn't mean to do it! I'm sorry!

I'm sorry! -You're sorry?

You've been gone long enough without punishment

compared to what I'm about to do with you!

-Don't hurt me! Don't! Don't hurt me!

-An evil so harsh, most people wouldn't speak about it.

The town had a history of evil that worked.

-Where have you been? -I've been out.

-Been out with that girl again, haven't you?

-Yes.

-Didn't I tell you not to see that girl anymore?

-Yes, mom.

-Do you love her?

-Yes.

-Do you love her more than your mommy?

Do you love her more than your mommy?!

-I...I don't love you like that, mom. She makes me

very happy. -I don't make you happy?

-You...you do, but...

-Do you want to see mommy hurt herself, Joshua?

-No. No, no, no, no...mommy. -Do you want to see me hurt myself?

-No.

Please. -Well, then...

I'll just have to hurt you. Give me your arm!

Give me your arm.

See what you made me do to you?

You just...

couldn't stay away from that girl, could you?

I love you

but you have to listen to me, otherwise bad things will happen.

It's just me and you.

Okay? Just me and you.

You have to listen to mommy.

Tell me you love mommy. -I love you, mommy.

-Sacrifice!

Sacrifice!

Sacrifice!

Sacrifice.

-Some say these evil events is what attracted the plague to attack.

-What's gonna happen to our town?

What's gonna happen to our town?

What's gonna happen to our town?

-I can't tell you anything. My mom is away.

-Why?

-She doesn't like it when I talk to you.

-You're the only person I can talk and play with.

-There is something evil that's gonna happen to this town.

-What do you mean by that?

-It will kill the women and you will see the dead.

That's all I can say.

-I'm going to take you into the city and I'm going to

show you one of the buildings that we're going to make.

-Wow. How big is it?

-It's about thirteen stories. It's one of the biggest buildings in the city.

-Really big. -Yeah, yeah.

And when we're in the city, I'm going to take you out to see a show.

A play. -What show?

-Uh... it's called...

Lemikaya

and it's supposed to be really nice...

-Good morning. -Hi, good morning, honey.

-Good morning, mother, -And how is my son doing today?

-How did you do at the baseball game yesterday?

-Good. Our team won the game. -You did? You did?

Were you pitching yesterday? -No, I was in right field.

-You were in right field? How many hits you had?

-Two. -Two? Two...two,

Was...uh...Robert Anderson, your best friend,

He was... -Yeah, he was on the opposite side.

-He was on the opposite team? Yeah. You know, son,

Speaking of Robert Anderson,

you know, Mr. Anderson, he owns the shop down the road.

And I spoke to him yesterday, he had said that

he could use an extra hand around the shop.

He said to me that he would hire you for a couple of hours after school.

Nothing comes before your studies as you well know.

Your mom and I will be really proud of you. You know?

-We're already proud. -You're missing the point.

What's for breakfast?

-Well, start with your tea... -Okay..

-And then I'll bring you boys out some eggs and then I got a little treat for you.

-Oh, I love when she says that. I love when she says it. Come on, tell me what it is.

-Pork slab.

-Beautiful.

Beautiful. -I'll bring it right out.

-Steven!

Is that you?

You know I can't see from that far away.

Steven, it's time to come for dinner. Come on, honey.

Steven, what's wrong?

-It's the boy, he's sick.

Steven, what's wrong?

No! No!

No, no, no!

-Someone get a doctor. Get a doctor.

-No!

-Teesa...

Teesa...

What's gonna happen to our town?

-If I tell you, my mom will get mad.

-Well, I won't tell anybody. My mom won't get mad.

I won't tell anybody else.

-I can't tell you or anybody.

-I promise I'll keep it a secret.

-I'm sorry; I can't.

-Um...okay.

-My mom doesn't like it when I talk to you.

-Why can't we play?

-She says you're not like the others.

She's coming.

-Jissel, Jissel.

Oh, my God!

Abigail! Abigail!

-What happened? -Oh, Jissel, what happened?

Oh, my goodness! Everyone come!

-Come, come! What happened?

Oh, someone get his parents!

I saw his father in the field!

-What happened?

-Oh, I tried...

I tried to warn all of them.

I tried.

-Mr. Peters. He is our new teacher

-Good morning, class. -Good morning, Mr. Peters.

-There is one thing I'd like to discuss here today,

in class. It might be a little bit too much for your young minds,

but I will make it very simple. There is a new theory,

it is called the theory of evolution, survival of the fittest.

Do any of you know what survival of the fittest is?

A show of hands?

It has to do with...

...only the strongest will survive.

Where the stronger will live longer.

Do we all understand today's lesson, children?

-Yes, Mr. Peters.

-Mr. Peters, can I have a word with you a second?

-Sure, doctor. What seems to be the problem.

-Um...I have this very serious problem.

I'm going to need you to dismiss the kids. They have to go home.

The kids are dropping like flies. -My family...is my family...?

-Your family...

I don't know right now how they are affected at this moment, but

everyone in town has been contracting something,

and the problem is it's not going to be...

Children!

You know what? Today you will be dismissed early.

It's a beautiful day outside. Go home to your parents.

Enjoy the day. Thank you. Thank you.

-Ah, there you are, you little witch!

You little witch, what did I tell you?

What did I tell you? You're going to doom this entire town.

You've got to keep your mouth shut. You and

your visions, everything that you're seeing.

Keep it to yourself, you little witch!

What did I tell you? What did I tell you?

Okay? Do you...you understand?

you understand?

Okay...

okay.

-Oh, Jiseel. Let me take a look at you over here.

Let me look at your glands...

Look at me, Jiseel.

Look in my eyes.

I examined Jiseel and I am noticing signs

of the illness. She has the glands beginning to swell.

That's the first sign. I'm also noticing a rapid pulse

and she is beginning to feel a little bit feverish. We have to wait about a day.

-Please, Dr. Felps, please, if we've got to do something, it has to be done.

I have all the gold in the world, you know my husband is the wealthiest in the town.

-This disease cannot be controlled by wealth.

It's affecting the rich, it's affecting the old, it's affecting

the young, it's affecting everyone. It's crossing every line...

-There must be something that can be done! -The problem is...

we don't know how to treat it right now. -How much do you want?

That's the thing. -How much can we give you?

How...there's gotta something that you can do!

Please!

-That...listen, I've been your family doctor

for a long time now. I love Jiseel, too, but there is nothing we can do...

-Something's bothering you.

I was at school today and a doctor came by and he...

had taken all of the children out of school.

He dismissed all of them.

That has not happened, and he even told me

to go home and stay with my family.

-It's horrible. All these children turning up sick.

-What do you think? It's some kind of a plague?

-I don't know.

Mrs. Molly told me her son was struck ill just last week and he can't get out of bed.

-Why isn't Pastor Miner worried? -How do we know he's not worried?

-What do you think we should do?

-I don't know, but I don't want him outdoors and

I don't want him around all the other children.

-Hopefully, it's just a passing thing, not the plague.

He'll be fine. He'll be fine. -I hope so.

-What...what happened to you, my dear?

What's the matter? How did you get like this? What happened?

What happened to you?

My child...

-Calm down!

We don't have the answers! -Quiet!

You don't have to get scared, we just ask that you calm down!

-That's right.

-You're a monster!

Monster!

-Now, we know that there has been an issue with the

kids, and we're going to get to the bottom of this.

But you got to stay calm.

I know we're all worried, we're all concerned,

and we're gonna make this better. maybe the doctor has a couple of words he can tell.

-We need answers! -We need answers!

-We need answers!

-Calm down. -Calm down, please.

-Calm down!

-Alright.

Hold up a minute. Hold up.

Hold up. Hold up.

Hold up.

-Let the doctor speak! -Calm yourself down, woman.

Sit down in that pew.

-We've never seen anything like this before. Please, everybody, relax.

-We'll figure it out. I know the kids are sick,

the young ones really are, but we'll fix it.

-Alright. There's no...no treatment right now,

on these conditions.

You can have pustules, sores, lesions,

it degrades into fever, and also aches and pains. They die within three days.

We've got to find a way...

-Thomas!

Thomas! Thomas?

Oh, my God!

Thomas, wake up!

Wake up, Thomas!

Thomas! Oh, Thomas!

-The news I have isn’t good.

I have examined Thomas three times,

he has it.

I...I don't know how to tell you this.

The lesions are there,

and once they get the lesions, there is no going back.

-It can't be true.

-We're going to make it as manageable as possible.

We're going to try to keep him pain free. But...

-He has it!

Not my son!

Why?

Why?

God, why?

-May the angels of God drive this child through the gates of heaven.

Our Father, who art in heaven, Hallowed be Thy Name;

Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done,

on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread, and lure us from evil,

Amen.

-John... -Oh, my goodness!

-Oh, John, look at this child! -Boy, boy...

-Thomas... -You're gonna be okay, Thomas.

You're gonna be alright. -Jacob, Jacob, Jacob, Jacob...

Jacob. He's gone. -What?

-He is not gone. He is right there. He was the last boy.

-Listen to me, no, he's...he's gone. I'm sorry, but he's gone, Jacob.

-No. The doctor can still do something.

I know the doctor can still do something!

-You listen to me... -Thirty-five kids, he was the last one!

-The Lord works in mysterious ways, I can't explain it.

But he's gone.

-No. I know the doctor can do something. -Come here....Come here.

-Let's talk downstairs.

-I can't believe she's gone. I can't believe it.

-She's not gone.

-This plague has taken so many of us.

-It took two of my brothers.

-It's not fair, Dad. -It is fair, son.

-It's called... -Yeah, she was... she was my baby!

Now she's gone! -My granddaughter.

-I love her so much! -She's my granddaughter!

-Next. Step right down, please. Next.

I'll take the next child.

Hello. -Hi.

-Jiseel Lewis. Let's see, I have you here.

Ah, born in 1851 in a small town of Nuisance, Pennsylvania.

How are you? -Good.

-Well, let's see. It says here that you enjoy

horseback riding,

playing ball with your brother, and reading. You're a reader.

-Uh-huh. -Wonderful.

-Uh...where am I?

-Well, Jiseel, you are in the library.

And just like all the other boys and girls waiting on line, this is a magical place.

A place where you can come to the library, pick

any story in the book, and become that character.

-But...I wanna go home.

-Well, yes, I know. But you can't go home, Jiseel.

Once you've passed, you come to the library and you get ready for your new life.

Choose a story in the book and...and we send you there.

You see, you do remember being ill, right?

Remember being ill? -Yes, the doctor came to see me.

-Alright, the doctors came and saw you and you've passed on and

we're getting ready to give you another life

in another part in the world, and this is why you come to the library.

You pick a story. You can be anyone you want.

You can go any place you want, and we send you there.

I got it. I have a special place that I'm going to send you.

You are going to be a carnival announcer.

In New York City. How about that?

You can say "Ladies and gentlemen, step right up, step right up.

I am Jiseel, I am your carnival announcer, step right up. We have water that burns.

Come see the one foot man,

the nine-hundred pound woman, the bearded lady,

and the human gorilla."

Perfect. You'd be perfect for that.

So how about? Carnival announcer it is?

Now, what area in the world would you like to go into?

You've ready many books, what fascinates you?

-I've read a book about China and I really want to go there.

-China? China...very interesting people, culture,

food...what would you like to do in China?

-Uh...I want to be a teacher.

-A teacher in China? Well, China it is.

I'm gonna go get the China book, I'll be back,

and then we will launch you into your new life.

Okay?

-Jiseel...

Jiseel... -Mom?

Is that you? -Come here.

-Hey... that little child that was here,

did she warp?

-You didn't see her leave? -No.

-Next!

-Parson...

my subject went through the portal when she wasn't prepped.

-How did that happen?

-I don't know. I went up just to get a book real quick,

for China, and I came back and she's gone. But

I feel it, that she wasn't prepped when she went

through the portal. I need to see The Relic.

-No one sees The Relic.

-Listen, tell The Relic that Orz would like to see him.

-I have an old relationship with him. -Just make it happen.

-Home.

Home!

I think it was just a bad dream.

Dad!

Dad?

Dad, it's me. I'm not sick anymore.

Dad, Dad!

Dad?

Dad?

Oh, God.

-Shh. I think you must leave now.

-Hi.

-Who are you?

And...and why is my body here?

-Well, my name's Jiseel.

And...

well...

sadly, you died.

-I'm Thomas.

-Hi. -Nice to meet you. Uh...

Is this a dream?

-It's not a dream,

but we have to go.

-So, you're saying this is the afterlife?

-Pretty much.

-Is there any way I can inform my body?

-I'm not so sure, but if you come with me to the library, maybe.

-I'll take that risk. -Okay, come on.

-Who is that?

-I see my mom down there.

Come here.

Come play with me.

-Just hold on tight,

don't let go.

-Relic, I can still see you're notorious at your places of meeting.

-We have a problem. -I know what it is,

but I can't let you track the child.

-She thought that she was hearing her mother's voices.

-How did this happen?

-Excuse me?

Ma'am?

Excuse me!

Hello?

-You know they're not allowed to head to the library.

For that reason alone, they broke the truce. I should be

allowed to at least go track the girl and bring her back.

She has the book.

Most likely they're after her right now to get that book.

If they get it,

it will mean disastrous consequences for The Library, you know that.

-Hello?

-Let me go...

and bring the girl back.

-Fine.

It's my guess that the girl has already walked at least

three times and it will be impossible to find her.

Do not pass the three minute mark.

And remember...

if you pass the six minute mark,

not even I can bring you back.

And bring two others with you, but guarantee me their safety back.

-Guaranteed.

-I wanted to bring you all here. We have a

mission. It's very important that you listen.

The rules have changed. And though you are the best trackers,

there's been limit set on the game.

The father has put a time limit on one that

you are not allowed more than three minutes.

Anything more than six minutes, you'll be stuck there forever.

-I don't understand the three-minute mark.

Why do we let the evil lurk?

-You've been in a lie a little too long, my friend.

The three minute mark...is because there is a truce.

We're not supposed to be in that world.

We are there for a mission.

Our mission is to go and get the girl,

bring her back safely with the book,

and go back to the library.

On your forearm will be a time code.

The clock will start the moment you enter the next warp.

It will warn you the closer you get to three minutes.

But even after one second after three minutes of dome testing,

they will come at you with everything they have.

You will not be able to fight them off.

If you're there past six minutes, you're done.

Understood? -Yes.

-Okay, let's bring back the girl safely.

-Okay?

Good luck.

-Honey, what's the matter? -I need to talk to you.

-What...what's wrong?

-It's happening again. -What's happening again?

-The visions. -What visions?

-It's a little girl that...

that's nearby and she's... she's asking for help.

-We talked about this.

-Listen...she...

-You can't help her.

If...if you do that, she'll never go away.

-She...she...she needs the help.

-You...you it can't be done. You can't do it.

We've already talked about this. We can't go back to this.

-And where...where is she?

-She's...she's...she's right behind you.

Jules?

-Yes, papa?

-Come here, sweetheart. -Okay.

Yes, papa?

-What happened to Mr. Ray's daughter?

-She died of the fever. -Of the fever?

When did she die? -Three days ago.

-Three days ago?

Okay, thanks, sweetheart. -You're welcome.

-Listen,

you're not from this world no more.

Don't come back around here; I can't help you.

Did you hear me? I can't help you.

But go down to the graveyard, and there's a nun there that can help you.

Don't come back around here no more.

-I saw what you are looking for.

-When did she leave?

-I saw what you are looking for.

-When did she leave?

I'll ask one last time. When did she leave?

-My pig...my poor pig.

Can you help me, please?

My pig...can you help me?

Can you help me? Please, help me.

Help me.

Help me.

Can you help me?

My pig...

-What are you doing here?

Why are you here?

What are you looking for?

What are you trying to find?

-I expel the evilness out of you.

-Collins?

Collins, is that you?

-Amy...

it's me.

-But why haven't you gone to visit me all this time?

-Amy, I've done some terrible things.

Very bad things.

I'm not ready to come back.

-Are you gonna stay?

-I can't...

I can't.

-Yes, you can.

-What is this place?

-I think I recognize it.

Might be my Aunt Bay house.

Aunt Bay?

Aunt Bay?

Aunt Bay!

-Don't worry about it. Let's get going.

-Okay.

-What are we gonna do now? -I don't know.

Help, help!

-Help! -Help!

-Children, children, we must go.

Leave everything right there. We must leave now.

Let's go. Come on. Come on.

Shh...shh...

-No...

-Come on, then,

afterwards you must let me be.

Why do you haunt me?

-We can be together again.

-How, Mary, how?

-He's taken your wife.

-Never!

-She's not here.

-You're not gonna find her. -She's gone.

-We're lost.

-Come on in, don't be scared.

I can help you go back to the library.

-Well, how can we trust you after all we've been through?

-Come closer. I'll tell you.

-Oh my god!

God!

-I'm not waiting!

-Why are you here?

What are you looking for?

The war has been over for centuries.

I'm gonna bleed you.

I'm gonna bleed you just like in the days of old.

Then I am going to feed your bones to my ghouls.

Little cuts here and there. That's good.

I have some better tools.

I want you to give me the answers.

Tell me, what do you hear? Why are you here?

-You disobeyed the six-minute warning, my son.

-Where is he?

-I don't know.

-Don't know?

-Don't know?

-He brought us back! -That's impossible!

-Nobody can defy the six minutes and bring you back.

I want him back. -I tried to bring him back.

I ... want .... him ... back.

-I tried to bring him back, he doesn't want to come back.

-Unacceptable. I want him back.

Unless...

unless...

that's impossible.

-Hello.

-Hi... um ...we're lost.

I don't think we belong her.

-Nonsense, child.

It just takes some time to get used to.

You're cursed, child.

I can show you the way.

You're cursed, child.

I can show you the way.

Things are a bit different here.

They put me in here because I said I didn't love the children.

I didn't care.

Fools!

I gave the children their freedom.

They were trapped in a world that was infected by the sickness and greed.

-Thomas and I were in the house and

he touched the book.

-Child...

you've come to me.

I can protect you.

Don't be afraid.

The book can take you to places.

See death from a whole nother perspective!

Be there at the hour.

just like the time will pass. ???

Give me the book!

Child!

I said give me the book!

-That's my mother!

Mom?

What's the matter with you?

No, no...what's the matter with you?

It's not your mom! -What's the matter with you?

-I'm telling you it's not your mom!

No!

-Mom, it's me.

-Your tricks won't work on me.

-I'm your mommy. I'm your mommy.

-We had a conflict several millenniums ago.

You kept the balance of the darkness and I watched over and watched you tip it.

You broke the sacred order.

The fire at the mountain of Cathair, the parting of the earth in Rafinia,

and the prestulous of a small village that ravaged

the community of Philadelphia.

-(chanting) Get the book! Get the book! Get the book! Get the book!

Get the book! -And the people, in fear, turn not to me,

but to you.

A false messiah. They had questions.

They wanted answers.

So I descended here to restore the balance and to banish you.

For you all no longer hold the reigns of darkness.

I put the girl in this journey, with the book, in the Library, through

the door, to walk through the fires of death to find you hiding.

Greet your due and languish in it for eternity.

-Well, Jiseel, you've had quite the journey.

Can I have the book back? Thank you.

-Do you know where Thomas is?

-I've returned Thomas

to his original place. With his mother,

where they are going to live a long and happy life.

And you...

you've been keeping me very busy trying to find you. Now that I've found you,

no more travels with the book. Take my hand, there's one more journey to go.

And count backwards to five. Ready?

Here we go. -Five...

Four...

No one ever spoke about the plague that whipped throughout our town.

They believed if the people were silent, it would never return.

Sometimes, when I lay in bed at night, it starts to hit me.

I begin to ask myself over and over if this was all a dream.

I was lucky. Given a second chance.

The doctor says I miraculously recovered.

Then, sometimes, I am always crookedly reminded.

It was a reality.

The end
