Chapter 10

“Come on in boys,” said Mr. Kennedy. “We were just going over your tablet.”

They walked into Mr. Kennedy’s office. There was a man at the desk with a huge magnifying glass and he was leaning over the tablet trying to read the tablet. The man had khaki pants tucked into high black boots and a khaki shirt. He was wearing a helmet that reminded Bobby of an explorer in a Tarzan movie.

Bobby stifled his laugh.

“Boys,” said Mr. Kennedy. “I’d like you to meet Professor Winkly. He’s a very prominent archaeologist and I asked him to decipher your tablet.”

They shook hands with him.

“This is some find you boys have uncovered,” said the Professor. “Jonas says you also found a stone carving?”

Bobby looked at him for a moment and then realized Jonas was Mr. Kennedy.

“Yes sir,” said Bobby. “So far that’s all we’ve found.”

“Well I’ll tell you, this isn’t something you would normally find here in the United States. This seems to be a tablet you would come across in the jungle, possibly in the Amazon.”

“How’d it get here then?” asked Chip.

“I’d be willing to bet someone discovered this in the jungle and brought it back and for whatever reason buried it and you boys dug it up.”

“Do you know what it says?” asked Bobby.

“These things are hard to read in their entirety. It’s like reading broken English. We need to study this boys.”

“That’s what Mr. Kennedy said,” said Bobby. “But we found it and we want to keep it.”

The professor nodded.

“I can understand that and I have no intention of taking it away form you but you should understand something. From the little I’ve been able to translate, I believe this tablet contains a curse.”
