Zodiac: Signs of the Apocalypse Page #2

Synopsis: Archaeology Professor Neil Martin hasn't done field work in fifteen years, ever since his divorce and needing to take care of his son, Colin. Now twenty, Colin convinces his father to accept an assignment offered by Kathryn Keen of Poly Dynamics, a research company that tries to find solutions to global issues. That assignment, which continues the work of a now deceased Professor Robert Bowles, looks into an unusual find in a lead mine in Peru. After traveling to the site with Colin and Kathryn, Neil believes the find, a tablet with some astrological glyphs, including one of Planet X - the ninth planet - is part of a key to some recent natural and destructive phenomenon, including a couple of meteor storms, one which killed Dr. Bowles and one which almost killed Colin. They also uncover a seemingly radioactive stone buried behind the tablet. He believes the stone and the tablet are only parts of the puzzle to the reason behind the destructive natural phenomenon, twelve which will occur

on a field trip.

It feels good to be back in the field.

Thanks.

So they finished clearing out the tunnels.

Just watch your step inside.

- Oh, no, no, no, no, no.

- Stay here.

- No, don't even think about it. I'm...

- Colin, I'll be right back.

- Just, please, okay?

- You can't be serious.

- Colin.

- Dad, come on.

Be right back.

So much for stickin' together.

Thanks for the eight-hour flight, though.

At least I got to watch

the news in Spanish.

- You need a minute with him?

- No, not right now.

After you.

- You say this is a lead mine?

- Why?

They didn't mine much

of the lead out of it.

It's right through here.

Careful.

This is incredible.

It's a heliocentric zodiac.

Wait, wait, what?

One, two, three, four, five, six,

seven, eight planets.

The sun in the center.

This is... This is incredibly detailed.

I've never...

I've never seen an ancient civilization

with such an accurate

idea of the solar system.

Are those traditional zodiac symbols?

Those are astronomical glyphs.

- What does it mean?

- I have no idea.

I thought you were the expert.

Are you kidding? On what?

This is unprecedented. This is...

pre-Babylonian, pre-Sumerian. This is...

It's like asking a

zoologist about a unicorn.

Screw this.

Cancer.

Sagittarius.

Huh.

What?

Some of the zodiac signs are upside down.

Wait.

There's eight rings,

eight planets.

So what is this ring?

It goes around and comes back here.

Why?

Why the hole in the center of the sun?

Unless...

ninth planet.

- Excuse me?

- Nibiru.

Planet X. I'm sure you've heard of it.

What, not up on your doomsday prophesies?

Guess not.

Dad!

See, Bowles, he...

He loved legends.

Especially ones based on historical facts.

He chased lots, but there was one...

one that he was absolutely obsessed with.

He searched his entire life.

Maybe he was cl...

Maybe he was close after all.

You think the stone is hidden here?

How do you know about the stone?

What's happening?

Stay back.

Dad?

Kathryn!

Dad?

Interesting.

It's not just some kind of puzzle, it's...

- It's a machine.

- What did you do?

I don't know. I didn't do anything.

Kathryn.

Here.

Should we be doing that?

Ancient civilizations built

all kinds of elaborate puzzles.

Even complex devices.

In Greece,

they found an analog computer device

that's over 2,000 years old.

Look.

I just found your unicorn.

Uh...

Hello? Dad!

Don't touch it.

What is that?

Why do you have that?

Dad!

Colin. Colin!

Dad!

Dad!

Colin!

Colin!

You okay? Dad!

- Colin!

- Are you okay?

Colin!

Colin!

You okay?

What's... what's going on?

- There's someone in here!

- What?!

There's someone buried in here.
