Chapter 4:
Ted and his guys pushed Shawn and the others outside. They stopped on a rock and untied them.
"We're not really equipped for this." Shawn said.
"We don't care. Keep walking." They pushed Shawn, Gus, Jules, and Savannah into the middle of the group. Gus leaned into Shawn.
"This is bad, Shawn."
"I know."
"What do they even want us for anyway?" Jules asked.
"As far as I can tell, leverage." Shawn said. "As long as they have us, my mom and Charlie have to do what they say."
Up in the front of the group, Ted was having almost the same conversation with Shawn's mother.
"Let Shawn and his friends go and I'll show you the artifact."
"Too late, you had your chance." Ted said.
"But why, Shawn?"
"Because I need a psychic to tell me where to go."
"Oh, I'll tell you where to go." Violet said.
"Now, now Vi." Ted looked at his men. "You two bring Spencer here." They grabbed Shawn and pushed him forward.
"Watch it." Shawn said as he faced Ted.
"Alright. Here's the deal. You tell me where the artifact is or I'll kill your little girlfriend."
"What makes you think I know?" Shawn said.
"Your psychic, are you not?"
"That's what this is about. Do you really believe in that stuff?"
"Cut the crap, Spencer." He grabbed Jules and held a knife to her throat. "Do whatever it is you do or she dies."
"Ok. Ok." Shawn placed his fingers to his temples. "I sense a dark, damp, space." He started flailing about. He threw himself against a rock. "Ah. Ah. Gusss! Oh, it burns." He picked himself up off the rock. He clutched a small rock in his hand. He stumbled over to stairs. "The spirits say we have to go up."
"Then, that is the way we should go." Ted grabbed Juliet's arm. "You're going to stay by me, sweetheart."
