Shawn: In the House of The Master Maker
It took a few seconds for Shawn to process. The ledger was a record book. A book of recorded dates from as far back as the early late 19th century. The first year was recorded as 1896. There were breaks in time, every ten years before new entries would be made.
As Shawn flipped through the pages of cursive writing and charts, he could see Bobby was next to him, following the information with widening eyes. They skipped through the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s. Flipping ahead to the 1980s, Shawn read a number of names. One of them was Jody's, but it had been scratched out with a single line, as if it didn't belong in the book anymore. It dawned on Shawn that this may have been a book for recording dead kids and others, but not necessarily those who still were on the list to be captured. After all, Shawn couldn't find his name in the charts.
Somewhere in the middle of the chart on the last page, Bobby let out a gasp. He fell to the floor crumpled. Before Shawn turned to him, he noticed the last name on the chart was April Brown.
"That's it!" Bobby cried out in anguish, pointing to the Book as tears streamed down his face. "They're all on there! They're dead! My family is dead!"
