"I never thought I'd find such a thing in the church." A voice says out from the dark.

"This book is some new thing that I don't completely understand. It says many things about some sort of process that brings a new form a life but next there is some missing pages, so I'm not quite sure what these things are or what to do but there are some scribbled sheet music for a guitar, not a normal one though,I'm going to try to keep track of what happens hear but I'm not quite sure if I'll have the time, there are some more important things that i must complete first. The school needs me, as the students interest in their topics and rapidly decreasing so I must see what is happening and if this relates to any other events." Says the voice.

A crack of thunder and flash of lightning light up the stage and we see a man sitting at a table writing. 

He stands up and turns on a light illuminating the stage once again. 

We see that we are in a room with one large widow and many papers filled with notes and doodles one the walls and stacked up on a desk next to a shelf.

On the shelf is a phone and in front of it is an old acoustic guitar. 

The man closes his not book and grabs the guitar. 

He puts on a pair of glasses and looks at the sheet music. 

He starts to figure out and play what is on the paper and isn't stopped until the phone begins to ring.

He puts the guitar down on his desk and walks over to the shelves and throws some papers on the ground and picks up the phone.

"Hello?" Says the man.

"Hello, this is Samuel one of the volunteers at the church is this Nicolas?" says another man who a light shines on on the other side (right) of the stage.

He is in slightly more fancy clothes with a tucked in button up while Nicolas is in more comfortable brown clothes. 

Samuel is in the church as we can tell because there's a stained glass picture behind him.

"Yes that is I, what's going on?" Says Nicolas.

"Did you take a little brown book from the basement of the church?" Says Samuel.

“Yes why, does Phil need it back, there wasn't any notes in his hand writing nor anything that i believed he would want to incorporate into a service.” says Nicolas.

“No no no, quite the opposite actually, Pastor found a few pages that were ripped out of your book in a separate box. I’m not quite sure why they were removed or not with the book itself but inside the box were also some other things like a couple candles and dagger.” says Samuel.

“Does Pastor want these items, or can I have the whole box for research?” asks Nicolas.

“I don't see why he wouldn't give you the items, if you want to stop by tomorrow around noon I’ll be there so i can give you the box.” says Samueal.

“I shall see if i can squeeze it in, I’m not sure how long my morning class will run but I should be able to drop by.” says Nicolas.

“Okay, thank you, have a lovely evening.” says Samuel.

“No thank you, have a good night.” says Nicolas.

Nicolas puts the phone down and picks the guitar back up. 

He goes back to playing what is on the music and this time goes deeper in and finishes the riff.

Lightning flashes again and the light goes out.
