 		In Mayan folklore, Hun Hunahpu and Vucub were defeated in a ballgame by the lords of the underworld: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hun-Hunahpu . Trying to find more about their tests...

 		Hun Hunahpu and Vucub Hunahpu face a series of tests on their way to the underworld ballcourt, finally being given cigars and torches and being told to burn them in the House of Gloom and yet have them intact by the dawn. Of course they fail, and the death gods sacrifice them and bury them within the underworld ballcourt.

 		So this is what I emailed:
Quote:
Hun and Vucub failed the test of the Dark House. They
failed to keep the torch and cigar burning throughout
the night


and I just got this back:

Quote:
You are correct. We will now join the gathering.

 		They have joined the gathering and they've swithed things around, the skull in the center in now in the upper right corner, strange....

EDIT: Chapter IX is now up http://www.freewebs.com/13crystalskulls/chapterix.htm

 		The skulls in the gathering look like they're in the same places to me? Just the two new ones added?

BTW good work guys.

Re. Missy and her loss. The uncle had something for her, could be something important?

 		Ted was Missy's uncle!!! See the Obit: http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p179/missyfisher/Obituary.jpg

So Ted is out of the pic, but he had something to give to Missy. And we have 3 skulls to go. The plot thickens....

 		I think this really casts doubt on the skulls again. Ted really knew his stuff, and clearly wasn't just a random nutter. He had a degree, taught history for 15 yrs and travelled the world.

I wouldn't be surprised if the accident was caused by some computer error... I guess this confirms it's really important we get whatever he had for Missy.

If you looked carefully before they joined you would have noticed that the outline skull facing the screen was in the center of the gathering, but it's now next to Skyskull and the skull outline that angled to the right that was originally next to Skyskull is now in the center
Sorry, I'm nitpicky, when I see even the slightest change in something I notice it.

Btw, the fact that Ted is Missy's uncle Shocked
I agree that we need to see whatever Ted gave to Missy.

 		Hm... But didn't Ted fake his death? Or was that earlier? Is it possible that Ted's still alive?

Also, I agree that whatever Missy had from her Uncle is now extremely important.

 		It seems that Ted indeed faked his death, seeing how he logged on today.
Has anybody else who has read all of his blogs notice how in the last two blogs some of the words has a smaller font as if he's emphasizing them? It could be nothing but I thought I might as well mention it. I'll also post the last two blogs so everyone can see. I italized all the words in a smaller font.

Disapointment after disapointment

After a long trip I finally made it to Missy's fathers house. To my great disappointment she went to her mother's house for the week. So tomorrow I head to my sisters house.

I just wish I could call her and warn her of everything. I am to afraid that the skulls will somehow pic up on our conversation. I fear my life has also become more and more in danger. It seems that I have had more brushes with death lately, than I have had my entire life. I think it is time to prepare my will. I will send a copy of my updated will to Missy just in case anything should happen to me. I pray I make it to her before it is to late.

Missed her again!

Great, I make it out to Missy's mothers house and Vicki, Missy's Mother tells me she went back home early. So needless to say I must make another nine hour trip back to Missy's Fathers house. I knew I should have just waited on her to come back.

I don't know, sometimes I could just kick myself. I have to get to her and finish this. These kids are all being used. The skulls are using them, using their weaknesses to get them to gather. I fear Missy was just to naive to figure these skulls could trick her.

I found an old picture that might help Missy understand that these skulls are deadly and were used as sacrificing tools. I don't know why they are doing what they are doing. But, all information from the Mayan text I have found, says that they are used to rid the planet of us.

In this image you will see a SKULL speaking the word DEATH, as a man to the right is decapitated. His head rests to the left of the skull and snakes are spilling out of his neck. Now this doesnt seem like some friendly skull now does it!

So, this is all I have now. I am growing so tired. This whole thing would make anyone tired. I hope to post again soon hopefully Missy and myself can get you guys all of this information soon. If I don't make it I hope Missy can show you. I hope all of this wasn't all done in vain.

 		New journal from Missy. She was the one who logged into her uncle's account, which was previously set to private (which explains why blackhawk couldn't find it before). Guess that means Ted's really dead. Dunno how smart it was to set his myspace public, especially since she's so strongly anti-skull now.

Missy wrote:

It have been reading through my Uncles Diary. I started from the last entry and I have been working my way toward the front. The last entries seem to mirror the 15 posts on his Myspace page.

Someone did ask me about him possibly still being alive, because he was logged in today on Myspace. That was me who logged into the page. He had the profile set on private. He mentioned in the note about keeping the page private to keep the skulls out of the page. He said "He left me the password and his email address in case something happened to him before he got to me and I was to show the others this page". I am assuming he meant you guys and the other chosen. So I had to set it to public so you guys could see it.

I can't believe that we have been helping these skulls. And I can't believe we have been helping them if they killed my Uncle. They had to have killed him, its to much of a coincidence for him to pass from a car accident. When he was afraid of the skulls hurting him or me.

We must tell the others. We have to stick together and stop these skulls. They can't get rid of us all. I will try to find out more from the diary.

 		After reading all the blogs Ted made, I still have one question not answered, Why was he against the skulls in the first place?! That's the only question I don't think he answered in his blogs. If he did and I overlooked it please let me know.

BTW, the website has added Chapter X: http://www.freewebs.com/13crystalskulls/chapterx.htm
