Disclaimer: see Chapter one
Author's Note:
Since you all asked me so nicely, here is the next part! Something about keeping my promises and such... *grins*.
PLEASE READ! THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT: I hope you liked the story so far. From now on I'm treading dangerous water for I used some things from "The Island Of The Haunted". The problem is just that I never saw the film(s) (it's more like they never bothered to show the film(s) in free TV in Germany). So that makes it a little difficult for me. Everything I used in this story is what one would call 'common knowledge'. I hope that I didn't make any big mistakes.
I don't know if there was anything in the films about how the Scrolls came to Scotland. If so and it is different from this story (which is likely if there was an explanation in the production)- I'm sorry.
In that case I suggest that you forget about IOTH for a few minutes and let yourself be drawn into the story.
Before the next part starts, the 'thanks' are on:
StilettoIceAngel: Yes, you can have the next part! Here it is; enjoy. Thanks for reviewing.
Carolina: Mean aren't I? But hey, is this soon enough to post the new chapter? Have fun with this part and thank you for the review.
Brandy McCollim: Hope you didn't fall off of your chair by now. *smile* I'll post the next chapter now to keep you from enduring that fate. Thanks for your review.
gemini006007: First: thanks that you asked. Yeah, I think, the exams were pretty good (though I will only get the results in Mai; boy *that* is a cliff-hanger). Thanks for your review and enjoy the next part.
e-dog: Hey, you'll get to know what it say now, so lean back and enjoy! Thanks for the feedback.
And also to everyone else, who hasn't reviewed by now (do so the next time you get the chance; namely now with this chapter!): have fun with this part.
So now finally on with the story...

To End The Evil Part 12
Her plan
With a flick o his hand, Jarod started the DSA.
The screen came to life. Catherine Parker was sitting calmly on a couch. She looked directly into the camera.
"Hello my precious angel, hello Jarod, Ben.
Today is February, 11. 1970.
When you are watching this DSA, I'm dead because otherwise this tape wouldn't still be at Ben's. I had hoped to avoid my fate but the odds are against me.
First of all I have to tell you that I'm very proud of you, Melina.
You are watching this together with Jarod so that means that you turned away from the evil that is the Centre and the fate they had in store for you. I am so proud of you!
You two must have been actively searching for this disk for I instructed Ben not to give it to you unless you were together and asking him to hand it over.
I think you know or have a general idea what this disk contains. If not I will give the short version.
You might be aware that I never agreed with the Centre's policies but I didn't have the power to stop them", Catherine smiled sadly into the camera.
"So I developed a secret plan. I started gathering incriminating evidence against the Centre some years ago.
My plan was to gather enough evidence to bring it down. Over these years I gathered a good amount of data.
I had to hide it for the Centre started to get suspicious.
Until today they haven't tried to do something against me but I..." she tailed of and crooked her head. The picture flickered briefly. "....I understand that this will change soon. I will try to hide some more things but I don't know how long I will be able to do that.
I divided the evidence in several parts and hid it. Until now there are four different places with evidence.
As I said, at first my plan was to bring down the Centre.
That was until I had the chance to read the Vespasian Scrolls.
After reading them and learning about your rolls in these Scrolls I found out that there is a different plan for you. The measures are the same yet the outcome will be different.
It will be your decision if you want to destroy the Centre completely or go along with the Scrolls' prediction. To decide what you want to do, you will have to read the Scrolls and find out about your fate.
I not only had the chance to read the Scrolls but I was also able to get them to safety.
I hid them on a small island in Scotland. It's the Island of Carthis."
Catherine Parker paused. Again there was static for several seconds.
"If I get the chance I will entrust Jarod with the knowledge as to where you have to search for the rest of the evidence. He will remember these places in time."
She crooked her head and seemed to listen. Her smile faltered.
"I have to
go now. I know that the two of you will choose the right path! You always have
to keep one thing in mind:
Together you can achieve anything you set your minds to! Try as they might,
even the Centre can't stop you once you made up your minds.
Before I go, I want to thank you, Ben, for keeping this disk until Jarod and Melina had the chance to come looking for it", she breathed.
"You, Melina, I again want to tell you how proud I am of you. Trust in Jarod despite everything the Centre tried to make you think.
Jarod, I hope you will be able to find your family once this chapter in your lives is completed; if you haven't already found them", she paused once more and listened. When she looked up again, tears were shining in her eyes. "Please, keep an eye on my angel."
With that the DSA ended.
To be continued...
I know this was pretty short, but I wanted the DSA to be a sole chapter. I found it better if this was 'closed up'. The next part will be up in a few days - I promise ('if' you leave me a review that is *grins*).
Please give me feedback as to what you think of this part (and/or the rest of the story). Thanks!
