A Dark Song Page #3

No. We can do it here.

Brush your hair.

- I need--

- Be quick.

Get changed into that T-shirt

and put some make up on.

Make up?

I'm just a man.

Look at you.

- Don't you need your books?

- No.

But isn't it part of--

Do you know what you're f***in' doing?

- No.

- Well, shut up then!

- Sorry.

- Sorry, Mr. Solomon.

Sorry, Mr. Solomon.

Take off your jeans.

Now take off your t-shirt. Slowly.

Put your hands in your knickers.

You know, go on.

Okay, take 'em off.

Okay, turn around, bend over.

K.. Kneel down.

Kneel down!

Show me.

Ah, f***.

Ah! Oh, f***.

Put your clothes back on.

That wasn't sex magic.

There's no sex magic

in this f***in' ritual.

You've got to be pure.

I had to get my mind.

You sh*t.

Don't you f***in' talk to me like that.

Don't forget what I'm doing for you.

F*** you!

You can serve yourself,

I'm not f***ing hungry.

But I told you, didn't I?

This is the way that it works.

It's two, three passes at it.

It's a cycle, I said at the beginning.

- I'm not doing it again.

- But you've got no choice.

I do. I'm going.

This is sh*t.

It is not sh*t!

I wish it were.

I'm not doing it again.

I'm f***in' going.

No, no, no!

Don't open the door!

Don't cross the line, we'll be f***ed.

Cross the line, we'll be

stuck here forever.

Please, you don't--

You just don't know.

But nothing's happened.

It has.

You can feel it.

I promise you...

...I will let you talk to your child.

I.. I promise you that.

You better.

You f***ing better.

Look.

Could it have blown in?

No. This is it. I told you.

I can feel it.

We're nearly there.

We'll keep pushing.

Seal the seventh chamber.

Then we should really light up.

The world isn't just science, is it?

Is that what you're here to prove?

I don't know. Possibly.

Science describes the least of things.

The least of what something is.

Religion, magic--

Bows to the endless

in everything, the mystery.

I can't find the right bit.

We're in the blackness

after the twelfth vessel.

What's for tonight?

Why don't you make it?

What did you say?

It's not f***ing working.

Well--

Brilliant, like your style.

You're a stupid, vain, idiotic man.

"Vain, idiotic man." I like that.

Brilliant, that's told me--

Why the f*** isn't it working?

I don't know!

I think it's you.

What do you mean?

I don't think you've been

telling me the truth...

...about why you're doing this.

I can just sense it.

I've told you the truth.

Look at me.

This is ridiculous.

It's all sh*t.

Look at me.

Have you told me everything?

- Yes.

- You b*tch!

You stupid b*tch!

F***ing b*tch!

F***ing tell me.

I want vengeance.

My seven-year-old child was murdered...

...by idiots doing a ritual.

You lied to me.

You f***ing, stupid cow.

Would you have done it, if you'd known?

Yes!

I don't need you to be virtuous.

I need you to be driven!

You idiot!

You're doing this for me!

You're the focus!

You're the conduit!

Are we going to stop?

We can't stop!

Ah, jeez.

This, this, this whole f***in' thing.

Get out of my sight, you f***in' c*nt!

Get up, we've got to do something.

Have you been drinking?

We've got to do a ritual.

You need to be anew.

Can this wait till morning?

No, we do it now.

It won't be long.

Stand in the water.

It's cold.

Strengthen her soul.

Horace, Orpheus, Baal, Christ.

Strengthen her soul.

Strengthen her soul.

Horace, Orpheus, Baal, Christ.

I'm going to duck you under three times.

- Can't this wait till morning?

- We need to do this.

"Take this soul and find it new."

"Make this soul clean and worthy."

"Let her touch the void, the nothin'."

Don't look like that woman,

you've just been reborn.

Well, I had to do it

to get the rite back on track.

You are now one with the rite,

one with your intention, pure.

You f***ing c*nt.

You nearly f***ing killed me.

You just crossed the boundary.

You touched eternity, the endless.

I didn't touch f***ing anything.

Well, we're back on track.

You'll get your vengeance.

Everything points to it.

F***ing make something happen.

I need this!

Jesus. F***ing Jesus.

I think this is, this is

the ritual starting to work.

That's the price...

...I've got to pay...

...for hurting you.

Your f***in' Guardian Angel.

What are we going to do with this?

Have you got any bandages?

In the cupboard.

Get, get.. get the whiskey.

Sh*t.

This is what we've got.

Oh, that'll do. That'll do.

What should we do with this?

Oh, the knife, was it clean?

- I don't know.

- Let's hope.

Let's just, just pull it out.

- Pull it out.

- What?

Just pull the f***ing thing out.

Sh*t.

- Oh!

- Sh*t.

- Okay.

- Yeah.

What should I do?

Just, just.. just give,

just give me a minute.

Okay, you, you lost your child, go on.

He was taken from a day care center.

Okay, is he in, is he in prison?

- Oh, God.

- They never found anyone.

You mothers and your children.

It was three years ago.

The case is closed, it's forgotten.

And now you're here with me.

It's less weird than you think.

You're not the first person

I've dealt with...

...who's f***ed off with God.

You don't know me.

Right, it's time to sew me up.

What?

Just, just, just--

Swab it with the whiskey.

Okay.

- Okay?

- Yeah.

F***. Oh, just do it.

I teach f***ing RE.

Oh, f*** off, it's not brain surgery.

So are you going to tell me now...

...what you're going to ask for?

- Invisibility.

- Invisibility?

Yeah, it's not what you think.

I want to, I just want to disappear.

Live the rest of my life

away from the world.

I've waited for you.

I want some quiet before the howl.

Just don't go thinking this is us

f***ing bonding or anything.

We're not pals now there, you know that.

Things will start to happen now.

I will give you your vengeance,

I promise you.

What do you think is going to happen...

...when you ask for your vengeance?

They will die a horrible death--

And they will be damned.

You don't think I had

anything to do with it, do you?

It was teenagers

playing with the occult.

Damning teenagers.

You could ask for so much more.

You know, personal things.

Transformations.

I'll do it my way.

Well, they're damned anyway.

Aren't we a pair?

I'm not like you.

You're just like me.

Maybe worse.

I am not like you.

Look where you are.

How are you doing?

Yeah, I'm alright.

Maybe we should stop.

No, we can't.

But you're not well.

I'm f***ing fine!

The power's off.

Well, we've got candles.

Let's just.. let's just...

...f***ing try and reach the end.

Uh--

If we can't, we'll, then

we'll see where we are.

It's three in line of nine.

Or is it twelve?

Which is it, Mr. Solomon?

It's nine.

Yeah, I.. I.. I think it's nine.

Mummy.

Mummy.

Mummy, please. Are you there?

Can you hear me?

Help me.

I'm here.

I'm just in here.

I can hear you.

It's not you.

It is. You don't know what this is.

You don't understand yet.

It's not you, Jack.

I've got to keep quiet, there's a dog.

There's no dog.

There is, you've heard it.
