Mylan asked grabbing Ula by the shoulders so she could look into her face. “The Ocean God, he’s coming for me. He's looking for the book, but I can't let him take it. If we don't get everyone out of here now, you all will die.” Ula said, as she tried to stay focus. Mylan dropped her hands and just stare at Ula, she couldn't be talking about, the book. But as she looked at the fear in Ula's eyes, she knew Ula was telling the truth. It made sense because Warlus told them that the Ocean God was trying to find the missing pieces of the original bible written by the King of Kings himself.

"A book?" Hugh immediately raised his voice. "A book? This is a treasure! A handwritten prayer book by a monk from the Abbey of Saint-Germain in Paris, dating back to the 13th century--complete with gold illumination. Fewer than ten copies still exist. I had someone camp out at a Vatican manuscript auction for half a year before I managed to get it!" Liam lifted a brow, looking at him with faint amusement. "You came all the way to the hospital just to show me this?"

Dante had also suggested that we did this alone without involving anyone else, Axel and I had agreed to that so we were all alone in the big old Library drawing out books after books from the shelves. We had cancelled every meeting and delegated every appointment that required our presence, we also metted out every assignment before converging at the library. We had increased the security and made a few changes in the heads of the different units.

We're running out of time” Gibson said, throwing a worried glance at a weak-looking Jovita. “I have found it”, I said, tossing him the book, praying silently that whatever he was doing was going to work. "Mater strigarum, nondum parata est, obsecramus te ut eam dimittere permittas. Obsecramus te ut team parce, non dum parata est”, Mr Gibson muttered, his eyes shining bright green.

Not that Jon had anything to say to her. The day had been taken up by this seemingly fruitless search, until in the dingiest part of the store, in a crumbling red book published in 1900, he found the name. The Book of Sacred Magic of Abramelin the Mage was filled with weird double-talk, esoteric terms, confusing graphics, and yawn-inducing florid language, but the name was there—as was his invocation.

However, he had no other place to go, so he held his breath and walked in. The cave was not that big. He heard some noises from the ground as he entered it. He got the shock of his life when he looked down; it was some human skeletons. "Sh*t!" He kicked the skeletons aside.

He was not only damaging Jonah's reputation; he was polluting the very fountain of knowledge that Jonah drank from. He was making study itself appear suspect, mad.

Gabby left and came back a while later with a big book titled, 'THE LEGENDS OF BIGFOOT" Huh? Bigfoot?! She rose her head and opened her mouth to say something but caught Gabby looking from her face to the book in quick successions. She was trying to tell her something. Bigfoot wasn't actually Bigfoot?
