- Just a baby.

- Yeah, only four.

- Get the fuck outta my way. Fuck outta my way.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, that's my baby girl.

- The little girl's father.

Can't imagine what he must be going through right now.

- Yeah.

No one can.

I heard his statement is that he was coming down

to the garage with his daughter.

A car bolts out of the
parking spot, hits the little girl,

hops out the car, runs, another
car comes, and shoots her.

- Yeah. - Yeah.

- The bandana he's wearing and his tattoos

indicated gang violence.

- Nah, he wasn't running away when he was shot.

He was facing his killer.

He wasn't shot by any gang members either.

Judging by the size of this wound,

he was shot point-blank range.

- [Detective] So what are you suggesting?

- Well.

If you had the opportunity to get away with murder,

and avenge your child's killer, would you?

Yeah, let's get the father down to the station.

Calm him down.

Let's see if he wanna change his statement.

- I'm gonna kill whoever - On it.

- fuckin' did this, yo.

No, no, no, no, no.

- Uh, detective. - Yeah?

- Are you coming tonight?

- Oh, yeah.

Clarkson's retirement party, right?

- Yeah.

- Yeah, it's, yeah I'm sorry, I won't be able to make it.

It's my daughter's birthday.

- Oh, I never knew how the daughter.

- Yeah.

I'm a girl dad.

- Well then, wish her happy birthday for me.

- Will do.

Everyone should have an idea of an ultimate reality,

and everyone should have an idea

Correct?

(student coughs) (student yawns)

Oh, come on.

I know I'm just a guest lecturer here,

but Professor Linden has told me

just how much you all love religious theory.

- Well, Professor Linden lied to you.

(class laughs)

- Well I'm here

- for the rest of the month. - Come on, man.

- I certainly hope I can

change your mind about that, Jason.

I'd like for you all to take a quick survey, hm?

(class groans)

There, there, settle down.

This is so I can determine
your particular worldviews, hm?

- Well Aloni, thank you for gracing us

with your presence this morning.

- Mm. It's always a pleasure, Professor Russel.

Did I miss anything important?

(audience whistles and giggles)

- Please.

Please take a seat, and complete your survey.

- Are you sure that's all you need for me to do?

- Please don't touch.

- Okay.

(clears throat)

- Thank you.

Questions one to twenty will
fall under general knowledge.

- You know Jason saw all of that, right?

- Good.

Serves him right.

(class bell rings)

- I will be expecting fully-filled surveys.

I highly suggest that you get to it.

- Hey. - Hey.

You coming?

- We're gonna go get some lunch. Do you wanna come?

- Mm. - Come on.

- Yeah, no, I'm good.

I just wanna make sure Jason is gone first, that's all.

- Anyway, make sure you call me.

- Yeah, I will. - [Professor Russel] Make

sure you hand in your surveys.

- Oh my...

Ow! Get off of me, Jason.

- What were you doing flirting with him?

- What do you care who I flirt with? Huh?

You weren't saying that when
I caught you cheating on me,

and lying.

- Aloni, I already apologize for lying to you,

but I did not cheat on you.

- I am not stupid. I found panties in your bed.

- That was a mistake, right?

Aloni, can we talk about this tonight?

- No, okay. I have a date.

- Omar.

- What?

- Oh, who is lying?

Huh?

Come here.

Come on, baby.

Please.

You know I miss you. Hm?

Loni, I saw him put his hands on you after class.

I saw it.

Oh, Loni, come on.

- Look, Lauren, that's just Jason being Jason.

- Jason being Jason?

- Yeah.

- And you're still going out to meet him?

- Oh.

Wow.

Wow, Lauren.

Okay, now you're eavesdropping on me?

- Nobody's eavesdropping. - You are eavesdropping on me.

- Nobody's eavesdropping.

- Yes you are.

- Can you just stop

- and listen to me? - No stop for what?

Get off me.

- Then listen.

I am scared for you.

- Lauren, you don't have to be scared for me.

I really, really wish that you

would just mind your own business.

- What do you got for me?

- You okay?

- (grunts) Yeah, I'm here.

- Well, Brittney's killer is definitely here.

I'm gonna send you some information.

(grunts)

(cellphone dings)

(grunts again)

- Yeah.

Yeah, these definitely look the same.

When did you take these?

- [Vivian] Last night.

The markings matched the forensics

from Brittney's autopsy before she was sent back

to the States last year.

And from what we're looking at, I'm almost certain

that Brittney's killer is definitely still here.

How soon do you think it can get to Ghana?

Or maybe I just don't feel like talking.

Either way, leave me a message and I may call you back.

(voicemail beeps)

- Hey Aloni, I hope you're still not mad

about last night.

And I guess you stayed over at Jason's place, again.

(sighs)

Babe, call me.

Please, just call me and let me know you're okay, please.

(phones ringing)

(people murmur quietly)

(phones ringing continues)

- How many have there been?

- Twenty-eight to date, and
the commissioner is concerned.

All of these murders are of a ritualistic nature,

and they're on the rise across Africa.

Most recently here, in Ghana.

I told you this is very different to our other cases.

All of those markings,

and everything associated with Brittney's body

are all pointing to witchcraft.

- Witchcraft? - (cellphone dings)

(cellphone dings again)

- Yeah.

Okay.

(sighs) Come, John. We have to go.

- What is it?

(uptempo drumming music)

(singer vocalizes deeply)

- [Ashorkor] The body of a university student

was discovered in the forest earlier today.

She had some symbols carved into her skin,

and many people are concerned

that there might be some
sort of witchcraft involved.

Now, many comparisons have been made to this tragedy

with happenings across Africa.

Unfortunately, we do not have any news

about this individual, but we
promise to keep you posted...

- Vivian. - [Ashorkor] As soon

- as we have more information. - Hi.

- Hey.

- [Ashorkor] My name is Ashorkor.

- Goodness. - [Ashorkor] Over

- to you, Perry. - Look what time you've got

us out here.

Matter unfortunate.

Wait until you actually see the body.

- Who is she?

- School ID found in her purse.

Her name is Aloni Jordan, she was murdered last night.

She's a foreign exchange student.

- Ah, the Embassy's about to have a field day.

- Yeah, right.

- Guys, follow me. - Yeah.

(soft eerie music)

(deep haunting choral music)

(police radio chattering)

- Yep.

The exact same markings.

(coughing)

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry you have to see all of this.

- No, no, no.

- I should have taken you
home so you can get settled first.

- Viv.

I need to be here.

I'm okay. I need to be here.

(exhales sharply)

- If you insist.

They'll be transporting Aloni's body to the coroner.

I'll just take you back to my place.

- No, no, no, no, no, no. Let's go down to the station.

- No. - Oh, yeah.

We ought to start looking into this now.

- No, John, no. You've done enough for today, okay?

We'll pick up on this case tomorrow.

Let's go.

- [Priest] It was the first weapon.

It was passed out through her lineage.

Each of your weapons are blessed

with holy water for spiritual warfare.

You are very much like her Vivian.

All your sisters look up to you.

- [Vivian] The more information

we gather about his daughter's death,

the closer he will be to finding out about us.

- [Priest] You must be very careful.

Our order of the Nine cannot be exposed.

- [Vivian] Yes, father.

Hey, everything okay?

- So I found something.

The university Aloni attends

has a religious theory course

taught by a

Professor Linden

- A religious theory course?

I didn't have a course like that when I was in school.

- Yeah, me either.

- You know what, Professor Linden

may be able to provide us

with more information on the tribal symbols

and the relations to the religions that use them.

- [John] Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's what I was thinking.

- Or he may be able to even interpret

the language carved on the victim's bodies.

- Okay, I will take a taxi over to the morgue.

They should have moved Aloni's body over there by now.

- Good idea. Call me when you get something.

- [John] Okay. See you soon.

(school bell rings)

(students chatter)

(indistinct chatter)

- Oh shit.

- What did you do to Aloni?

I know she was with you last night.

- I don't know what you're even talking about.

- Yes you do.

She was with you and this morning she's dead.

You killed her.

- Hey.

- Aloni's dead?

- What is going on here?

- He killed her.

- I didn't kill anybody Lauren.

- Okay, relax, relax.

What is your name?

- His name is Jason.

- Hey, hey, hey, hey.

- He killed her.

- Stop.

- He killed her.

- Lauren, stop.

It's okay. It's okay.

- You know what? This isn't over.

- Hey, hey, hey Lauren

Lauren calm down.

- Jason, right? Jason, do you know what happened to Aloni?

- No.

Can I go now?

- Hey, what you looking at?

- Do you all have nothing better to do?

- I'm sorry ma'am, may I help you Miss?

- Vivian Radebe.

- Are you Professor Linden?

- No, ma'am. I'm Professor Russel.

I'm a visiting instructor
for his class until he returns.

- Oh, nice to meet you. So is Aloni one of your students?

- She was.

- Do you mind if we go to a quiet area

just so I can ask you some questions?

- No, sure, of course.

This way.

- Sure, this way? - Yes.

- Cool.

- Now, I'll be happy to help where I can.

Though, I'm not sure if I can be of much help.

- Why is that?

- Unfortunately, I haven't been

at this university long enough.

So, I didn't really know Aloni.

- So you just travel and teach different classes,

- Travel, yes.

But it's the same class really.

Religious theory.

That's my passion.

- I was hoping you could help me

with some details on specific markings.

- Markings? What kind of markings?

- Aloni was found with a
distinguishable mark on her body.

Perhaps with your knowledge

in religion, you can help us gain

some insight on the meaning.

- Yes. I saw that on the news.

- Morning sir.

- I'm sorry Miss Radebe,

but is there any possible way

that we can continue this another time?

- Yeah, of course, of course.

Do you think you can come to the station later?

- Oh, unfortunately I have back to back classes all day.

And then I have to get home and see about someone.

I'm her caretaker.

- I understand, perhaps tomorrow.

Will you give me a call?

- Yeah, sure, see you then. - See you then.

- All right.

Settle in.

(eerie music plays)

(eerie music continues)

- What more can you tell me?

- exsanguination.

- The complete drain in the body

of his blood seems to be a common factor.

- As well as all the three symbols

being symmetrical to each other on either side

of the body and all are repeated three times.

- Three times?

Just like Brit.

(text notification rings)

All right.

- [Vivian] Thanks again for agreeing to meet with me.

- It's fine.

Miss Radebe, this is my friend Jessica.

- Hi. - Hi.

- So, I wanted to ask you

about what you were saying

outside Professor Russel's class.

- Okay.

- What makes you think

Jason killed Aloni?

- She was with him the night she died.

- And how do you know this?

- We had an argument before she left to meet him.

Jason is a cheating asshole.

And I saw him put his hands on her.

No, I saw him.

- They were always arguing and breaking up.

- When did you find out she was missing?

- She didn't come home and she didn't pick up

when I tried to call her.

- Why, Aloni?

(Lauren gasps for air)

(Lauren gasps for air again)

It's all my fault. I should
have tried harder to stop her.

I said, don't go Aloni.

- Okay.

- She was mad at me and she walked out angry.

- Lauren, I am very sorry - I could have-

- Okay. I didn't mean to upset you.

- It's okay, I'm sorry.

I think I have to just lie down a bit. I'm so sorry.

- It's okay. - Okay.

- It's okay.

Uh

I guess I'll see myself out.

- Wait.

Do you really think Jason

had something to do with this?

- Why?

Is it something you want to tell me?

- No.

No.

I just-

I don't know. Uh.

A murder like this at the school. It's just-

It's just freaking me out. That's all.

- I bet.

Listen, you and Lauren,

you just need to look out for each other, okay?

And if there's anything that you guys

think of or can remember that can help the case,

just don't hesitate to call me.

- Thank you.

- Sure.

(eerie music)

(eerie music continues)

Look at you in your greatness

and in all of your glory

No one

can challenge you

- Now, you may kiss the bride.

(dart fires)

(Russel gasps for air)

(soft melody)

(soft melody continues)

(telephone rings)

(telephone rings again)

- Yes?

- [Receptionist] Miss Radebe,

there's someone here to see you.

- Who is it?

- [Receptionist] He says his name is Jason.

- Oh, okay. I'll be right out.

(recorder beeps)

(door opens)

- Wait.

- Who is he?

- Oh, this is Detective Kerston.

He is helping on Aloni's case.

I hope you don't mind him being here.

- I mean, whatever.

Look, I just want to clear my name, hmm.

I know you heard all that shit Lauren said yesterday,

but none of that is true.

- So you didn't see Aloni the night she died?

- I saw her.

She came over to me and then we watched

the game and she left.

Yeah.

- Around what time was that?

- After the game.

- By eleven.

- Eleven?

- Yeah.

- Aloni's time of death was ten-thirty.

- I'll take that back. She left at halftime.

- [Detective Kerston] Hm.

So.

Which one was it?

- Damn.

- Okay, look, she came over.

We had a fight and then she left.

She caught me with another girl.

- Was this girl with you for the rest of the night?

- No, no, no, she left right after Aloni did.

- What's her name?

We need to talk to verify your story.

- You spoke to her yesterday.

Jessica.

- [Vivian] Jessica.

Why didn't you tell me

that you saw Aloni the night she died?

- Because I didn't want you to know

that I was with Jason.

And I definitely didn't want Lauren to find out.

- Well, you better start from the beginning.

(recorder beeps)

And tell us what happened.

- Okay, Aloni and Lauren made a pact

to save themselves for marriage.

So Jason and I started hooking up.

That night she found out and she was pissed.

- Did you two fight?

- No, no.

She stormed out and I ran after her.

She threatened to tell everyone about Jason and I.

And then I told her I would tell everyone

that she was harassing Professor Russel.

- Harassing Professor Russel?

- Yes, but I didn't kill her.

You have to believe me. I didn't kill her!

- What is the connection here?

I mean, we know the suspect's relationship with Aloni,

but how are Brittney and the other victims

connected to that?

- You know. Maybe,

maybe there is no connection between them.

You know, the only thing they have in common

are these strange markings.

- Maybe it's something entirely different.

Brittney was here on missionary work when she died.

- Yeah, we know that already.

- And Aloni is a foreign exchange student.

All the other victims,

they were visiting Africa when they died.

So none of them are natives.

(eerie music)

(eerie music continues)

(telephone rings)

(phone beeps)

- Yes ma'am.

- [Receptionist] Sorry to disturb you ma'am,

but there's a Professor Russel here to see you.

- Oh yes, of course.

Please send him to the interrogation room.

We'll be right down.

- [Receptionist] Very well, ma'am.

- Thank you.

(indistinct background chatter)

- Professor Russel, this way please.

- This is Detective Kerston.

Detective, this is Professor Russel

- Pleasure. - He's a guest lecturer

at the university in the
absence of Professor Linden.

- Yes.

- Thank you for lending your time and expertise.

- Absolutely, I mean, anything I can do to help.

My students mean everything to me.

- You know, being the expert that you are.

Could you give us some insight
on what these symbols relate to?

- I mean, definitely religious rituals

of some sort.

- [Detective Kerston] Religious rituals? Umm.

Is this something your students will be privy to?

- Oh, that's hard to say.

I have my own curriculum, so I don't know

what Professor Linden taught them.

This is um-

this is pretty ancient.

And is common with the witchcraft practitioners

from the Ulta region.

The Sitso village to be exact.

Many years ago, it is believed that the people

of Sitso used witchcraft

and voodoo to protect
their village and their people.

They were known to be fierce warriors.

Powerful guardians,

healers.

People with supernatural abilities,

but the dark forces are never to be underestimated.

The entire village was soon corrupted

and vanquished off the surface of the earth.

It is believed that the only survivor

was a young prince who was exiled soon before,

but he too disappeared.

And with him the secrets and knowledge.

- Hm-mm.

- Their people believe in the power of three

or multiples of three.

- The power of three?

I heard about that somewhere.

- The number three symbolizes

full circle or completion for a Grand Witch.

(sighs)

Whoever did this.

(signs again)

Seems like they don't think

they'll ever be caught,

almost as if they believe they're untouchable.

(Detective Kerston scoffs)

- Well, their arrogance will be their downfall.

- I'm sorry, continue on please.

- I understand detective, I want you to catch

this killer and-

I just want to help.

Do you see this?

This is a love spell.

And a spell for setting the soul free.

It was often used by practitioners
when burring loved ones.

- Strange, don't you think?

- Yeah, interesting. - Yes, very much so.

- And what about the exsanguination?

- The victim's bodies must have been drained

of blood so that it would maybe delay

the decomposing process.

(sighs)

I'm afraid that is all I can tell you.

I really do have to be going.

I have-

back to back lectures all day.
(eerie music and whispers)

- Hey, we thank you for your time, professor.

Thank you for coming out and
for your insight and expertise.

- Thank you.

- Well, he was all of a sudden in a rush to go.

- That thing around his neck.

It had this exact symbol.

- I didn't see it. - It was glowing.

That's too much of a coincidence.

(telephone rings)

(telephone rings again)

(low drumming)

(tense music)

(low drumming)

(tense music continues)

(Russel groans)

(low drumming continues)

(Russel groans again)

- Look at you...

in your greatness,

and in all of your glory,

no one can challenge you.

(tense music)

Look at you in your greatness,

and in all of your glory.

No one can challenge you.

- Now, you may kiss the bride.

And so it begins.

- I am now a part of you my love.

My blood will make you stronger

and keep you young with me forever.

Flesh of my flesh, blood of my blood.

Your heart grants us life beyond life and love.

Beyond love.

(dart fires)

- My love.

(Ellis gasps for air)

- Wait.

(Ellis gasps for air again)

(sword clangs)

Show yourself.

- The dart was poisoned.

- [Russel] Take her.

Father.

Drop it

- You drink the blood of a witch

and condemn your soul to hell.

You will never be king.

- You never thought I'd be good enough to be king.

Now I will be with or without your permission.

You have no power here.

Soon, I will be reunited with my bride.

- Your bride will die,

and you remain the foolish little boy.

I have tried to raise to be a man.

Did you ever think that marrying a witch

would make you powerful enough to run my kingdom?

You are still worthless and always will be.

I order your exile.

You are not my son.

(Russel snares)

(Russel grunts)

(Russel gnashes and growls)

Seize him!

(Russel grunts)

(intense drumming music)

- I will prove you wrong, father.

Whatever it takes.

(elder hums)

(elder continues to hum)

- The poison is aging her at an accelerated rate.

The next blue moon is in three years,

but she will have aged 60 years,

if we do not collect enough

souls to keep her alive before that.

- [Russel] I need help.

Teach me what I need to know.

I will teach you nephew.

- Please

- Come with me.

What are you doing standing there?

Come here!

- Hey.

We call on you,

powers that be,

ancestors, come to me,

come forth,

come forth.

We are grateful.

Thank you.

(tense upbeat music)

(intense chanting)

- [Elder] She will have to drink the blood of 30 virgins,

not of this land before the next blue moon.

Not of this land.

- [Russel] How is that even possible?

- [Elder] There are ways.

- Don't worry about that. - Okay. Okay.

- [Elder] The key is the 30th soul.

Has to be of her bloodline.

Only then.

Only then will she be strong enough

to complete the spell that will evoke

the great darkness - (thunder rumbles)

And then the two of you be planted

immortality.

- Okay, I need the three virgins.

Uh. Wait, wait, not of this land. Um

Uh The 13th must be of the bloodline.

And how before the... - Calm down, calm down.

Be patient and cunning

Others will try to take your power. Don't let them

Since you drank her blood.

You are both bonded.

(low chanting)

(low chanting continues)

(intense music)

(Russel grunts)

(tribal singing)

(tribal singing continues)

(low drumming music)

- [Vivian] And it started to
glow with the infinity symbol.

- [Mother] The prophecy says the Grand Witch

will rain eternally and will
empower the supernatural world.

She has been trying for centuries

but came the closest on the night

of the blue moon, three years ago.

- The infinity symbol.

That is the ultimate sign of eternity, so.

This professor could be more than what he seems.

- The next blue moon is in a few days.

Up until now, we have not been able

to take power from this great forest.

Let us be one.

And speak to her.

She will give us the answers. We just have to listen.

Mother earth.

We connect to you as one.

Speak to us.

Let our eyes be open to see,

and our ears open to hear.

Guide us to the answers we seek.

Help us to stop this evil

that started many years ago.

- [Vivian] Mother, that is the veil

that we found on all of the victims.

Look into this Vivian.

- Right away, mother.

(indistinct traffic)

- We found some information about the professor,

sending it over to you now.

- Thank you, sister.

Yo, I've been waiting on the lab results

and the chemical breakdown

that I did on the blood that we found.

It's taking forever.

(somber melody)

(Ellis laughs maniacally)

(somber melody intensifies)

(Ellis laughs maniacally again)

(Detective Kerston grunts)

- What's wrong?

- Something I saw in a dream, wait a minute this.

Hold on.

Oh yeah.

This mole.

This mole was never there.

- Yeah, you're right.

On another note, I was looking into the professor

while you were asleep.

- What'd you find?

- Well, it seems like he knew Aloni

a lot more than what he's letting on.

Look at this.

Apparently the professor

is from here and he has been traveling

around Africa for the past three years.

- What? - Yep.

He's been going to different
colleges and universities,

teaching the religious theory course.

- Well, I'll be damned.

- So he's picked up a number of awards,

but he never stays in the same
place for more than a month.

And what's even more suspicious is that the places

that he goes to, they coincide with the places

where we found the bodies.

Same timeframe?

- Wait, no, no, no.

So this asshole could have been the one

who killed my daughter and
he was sitting right across me

and I didn't fuckin' know it.

- Okay, John. - I didn't fuckin' know it.

- John.

- No. - No.

Calm down.

- Nah.

- You don't know, okay.

And we still don't know.

- Yeah.

- No, we gotta get this asshole.

(Russel pants)

- [Ellis] Flesh of my flesh.

And blood of my blood.

Your heart grants us life

beyond life and love.

Beyond love.

(Russel gasps for air)

- Now we know.

Lauren, is indeed of your bloodline.

With her heart

our ritual

will now be complete.

A great darkness

will fill me

and I will become the greatest Warlock

this world has ever seen.

And you -

you will reign beside me

as my queen.

Forever.

(thunder rumbles)

It is time.

(eerie music)

- Oh.

Really?

I've been looking for this.

(shadow swooshes)

(indistinct whispers)

(Lauren gasps)

- (Russel roars) - (Lauren screams)

- [Vivian] We have to be strategic.

We have no idea what this guy is up to,

or what he's capable of.

- You know what?

All I know, is that he may have killed my daughter.

We getting to the bottom of this shit tonight.

- Listen to me, okay.

We cannot let this guy know what we're thinking.

It could be dangerous.

- Yeah, and that's why I brought this and I don't miss.

- I better take the lead on this one Kerston.

If he really does have the power

of the Grand Witch behind
him, that will not even hurt him.

- Yeah, and you can do better?

(police radio chatter)

(telephone buzzes)

- Hello?

Okay, standby.

Just as I thought.

I had a friend of mine look into that necklace

the professor was wearing.

It's a totem linked to witchcraft rituals

to gain immortality.

- Okay, and what does that mean?

- It means that he's been using his victims

for a sacrifice for some reason.

And maybe it's to bring someone back to life

- Or

- Or keep someone alive.

(car engine rumbles)

(drumming music)

(intense music)

(door creaks open)

(umbrella falls)

(intense music continues)

It's fine.

- He did say that he was a caregiver to a patient.

- Yeah, he did.

Not just a patient.

His wife.

(car engine running)

- My queen.

(eerie music)

- I know my love.

- I know this gonna sound crazy,

but I've been seeing this woman

in my dream for the past few nights

- With everything we've learned.

That does not sound crazy at all.

- Right?

Wait a minute.

The mole.

That fuckin' mole.

That mole appeared on Aloni

and my daughter after they were murdered.

- He's using the victims for her.

She is the Grand Witch.

- Grand what?

(door slams shut) (eerie music continues)

What the fuck?

(Door hand rattles)

- Oh, of course.

It's a binding spell.

- Yo, we gotta get outta here.

(Ellis laughs maniacally)

- She's here.

- (gun cocks) - (Ellis laughs maniacally)

She's here Viv.

You don't see that that?

You don't hear that?

- She'd right there. - (Ellis wails)

- Okay, I'm going to get some salt.

(gun cocks)

(intense music builds)

- John? - (drumming sound)

what are you doing?

- You killed my daughter.

- What are you talking? - What are you talking about?

(Ellis laughs maniacally)

- Don't give me that shit.

- Don't gimme that shit.

- You killed. - My daughter.

You know you fuckin' did it.

(Russel laughs maniacally)

(Gun fires)

(Vivian strikes John to the ground)

(Detective Kerston pants)

You killed my daughter.

- John, John, please. Wait.

- You killed my daughter.

- John. - You killed my daughter.

- Get off me.

John, please.

- I know you did it.

You killed my daughter - (Ellis laughs maniacally)

You killed my daughter - (Ellis wails)

My baby girl.

Die.

Die.

(Detective Kerston grunts)

(Vivian coughs)

(Vivian coughs again)

- John.

Listen to me. Your under her spell okay?

Listen.

(Ellis laughs manically)

John.

(Vivian takes a blow to the gut)

John.

(intense music builds)

- (Vivian grunts) - (Detective Kerston grunts)

Come back.

- You killed my baby.

(Detective Kerston grunts as he's hit in the stomach)

- (Vivian pants) - (wind swooshes)

(Gun cocks)

(indistinct whispers fill the air)

(Detective Kerston chuckles)

I see what you are.

(Detective Kerston chuckles again)

You can't hide from me. - (lightning strikes)

- [Detective Kerston] I'm gonna get you.

- You can't hide from me.

- (gun fires) - (drumming music)

(indistinct whispers)

(Vivian breathes out)

(lightning crackles)

- [NINE Assassins] Fear not, for I am with you.

Be not dismayed, for I am your God.

I will strengthen you.

I will help you.

I will hold you with my righteous right hand.

(Detective Kerston grunts)

- What's happening?

Who are these women?

- They are my sisters. - (thunder cracks)

(bullet clinks on the floor)

(Detective Kerston pants)

- Oh my God.

Oh my God.

What did I do?

- Not you, Ellis.

- Ellis is the Grand Witch

and she's behind all of the killings.

Three years ago she started

an immortality spell with a prince

whom we now know is Professor Russel.

But she didn't finish it

- As the prophecy states.

She now needs the pure blood of thirty virgins

not off this land.

By the night of the blue moon to complete it.

- You knew this whole time, hmm?

You knew.

This whole time.

So what you need me here for?

- Yes John I knew, but to protect our order,

I needed to go undercover.

And we needed you here

because your daughter was a
key piece to finding the Witch.

We needed you here to truly know

and understand what really happened to Brittney.

You deserve that.

- I hate to break this up guys.

The thirtieth virgin sacrifice has to be tonight

and we need to find them.

- And time is running out.

- If they complete this ritual,

they both will become too powerful for us to stop.

- Stand back.

This location spell will help us find them.

(thunder rumbles)

I know where they are.

Let's go.

(low tone music)

(trunk opens)

(low tone music continues)

(metal sword clangs on the ground)

(footsteps rustling through leaves)

(tribal chants echo)

(trunk door slams shut)

- My queen.

(cane thuds on the ground)

(footsteps rustling through the leaves)

(tribal music intensifies)

(owl hoots)

(tribal music continues)

(Ellis pours salt onto the ground)

(owl hoots)

- Do you see anything?

- They should be close.

(Ellis continues to pour salt on the ground)

Ancient one

We call on you

Send forth your power

- (car engine hums to a stop) - (tribal music builds)

(lightning crackles)

- Stop.

They should be here.

- They're closing in my love.

I will summon the others.

(Ellis shriek erupts from the woods)

(A shriek pierces the air as it awakens)

- (wolf howls) - (creature growls)

(creature grunts)

(Heavy footsteps thunder through the forest)

(The creatures' snarls and growls fills the air)

(roars and shouts of combat fill the air)

- (John gasps for air) - (crickets chirp)

(John grunts again)

(somber music)

- Brit, baby?

- I'm okay daddy.

- I miss you so much.

We miss you so much baby.

- I love you and I'll always be with you.

- Brit.

Brit, don't go baby.

- Mommy misses you baby. We love you.

(somber music)

(footsteps rustling through leaves)

(Vivian pants and grunts)

- (indistinct whispers) - (flares crackle)

(Vivian gasps)

- You cannot hide your true identity

from a master warlock.

(Russel wails)

You took her from me!

(Russel sighs)

And now.

And now.

- And now you shall join her.

(Russel yells)

- (Vivian yells in battle cry) - (lightning crackles)

(Vivian yells)

(triumphant music plays)

- (lightning surges) - (Russel yells in anguish)

(lightning surge ends)

(tribal chant music)

(Russel spits out blood)

(Russel gasps for air)

(The totem glows softly, cradled in defeat)

(Russel coughs)

(Russell pants)

(Russel yells in anguish)

- Sisters.

(Vivian coughs)

It's time.

(flames erupt from warriors hands)

(dark spirits erupt, screeching in defiance)

(Russell groans in anguish)

(Assassins chant indistinct whispers)

(Russel growls as the spirits leave his body)

(lightning crackles as Russel's body disappears)
