August 12th, 1998 (DAY 6)
We had just finished our breakfast, the telephone rang in the garden and
our host ran to pick it up just in time."Oui, il est ici..." (Yes, he is here...)
You can NEVER guess who even follows me when she's not physically around! Bruna!
Oh no, the adventure isn't over yet...
On the phone from her hotel nearby, Bruna promptly decided that the three of us were going to Rennes-les-Bains today (apparently she had hired a car).
She would meet us in the garden of the Villa Bethania at 11.30am.
Before that, Lotje decided that it was now HER time to visit the "domaine de
l'abbé Saunière".
Oh mind you, it was not that she was overtly excited for the things to see
there, it just happened to be that some cute guy was selling the tickets!
(note: The pun of the story is, that this guy just coincidentally happened
to be the boyfriend of the girl "I" was in love with!!!)
Anyway, her temptious flirting at the ticket stand didn't do much good, but
at least she picked up a few things about Henry Lincoln and the Prieuré de
Sion via the video that played in the domain.
At 11.30 sharp Bruna was there in a flamboyant red TWINGO.
We left directly for Rennes-les-Bains, where I made the coincidental remark
about the man that took my picture yesterday.
"Je sentais qu'il est très mauvais!" (I felt that he is very bad) was her
answer.
And all of a sudden it popped into my head.
"SHIT!!! SHIT!!!! SHIT!!!!" The proverbial penny dropped.
Someone that practices magic and takes my picture without my permission, has
the ability to harm me, comparable to VooDoo beliefs.
Oh, sure I believe in this kind of magic, since I've done it myself in the
past (not to perform evil acts of course!!!)
Then all of a sudden it began, I became worried...VERY worried.
And Lotje became in the same instant sick...VERY sick.
Something was not right here, and the both of us feared that we might be in
the grasp of someone evil....someone that at all cost tries to protect RLC's
secret.
Bruna threw even more hay on the fire, insisting that we HAD to protect ourselves,
but that now we should think fearfully about being in her car!!! It would
be VERY dangerous!
GREAT!! that was the last thing we needed, fear in a car driving on narrow
roads with a cliff next to you!!
