Introduction
Terry Johnson is a trouble shooter in the aviation industry working on business trips to the far east. Suddenly his driver said he had killed baby fetuses to make baby spirits go to work for him. ‘We do it all the time said the driver.’ ‘How do you get a real baby?’ Asked Terry. We pay a real women to get pregnant then after eight months have gone by, we make her have the baby. Then we put the baby on the roof in the sun and pray and chant over the baby for 40 days Then the baby spirit becomes ours, will work for us, and do anything we ask it to do. Even to harm someone. ‘That’s murder Sammy’ (the drivers name).Terry Johnson was enticed into finding out more and went to Thailand to find out if he could stop it. But he would be placed in Danger by the Kuman Thong.
Chapter- One
Terry Johnson was a tall man of six feet four, good looking for his 65 years who worked out in the gym every day at dawn. with a long thin nose, a square jaw, plus dimples in his cheeks. He had a nice friendly smile. Terry was a successful businessman in the aviation industry selling Lear jets to corporations as well as rich Chinese individuals. He was on a month-long trip to the Lion City. After a long day at the office, he was now relaxing in the back seat of his air-conditioned chauffeur driven limo. Terry’s trip only had six days to go, so he was looking forwards to going back to his home in Warwickshire England. He knew the driver of the limousine as Sammy who didn’t have a lot going for him. He was a fat short man of only five foot tall. He was of Chinese origin and had slits for his black eyes, a flat nose, and thin lips. Terry would stop at a local bar for a few beers to unwind on his way back to the Hotel. Tonight, was one of those nights. After a few beers half-drunk he decided to leave the bar and head back to the hotel.
Later, on the way back to the Hotel Sammy the driver declared that he was a Buddhist and had been all his life. He spoke in broken English. Sir, are you interested in religion?’ Terry wasn’t interested in religious affairs and replied that no he wasn’t into religion at all. Then the driver asked Terry if he was interested in ghosts at all? To which Terry replied, ‘No I’m not interested in ghosts, and I don’t believe in ghosts.’
Have you heard of the baby spirits?
‘No, I haven’t heard of the baby spirits what’s that all about?’
‘I’ve got five baby spirits working for me,’ said the driver in a proud voice.
‘What do you mean you’ve got five baby spirits working for you? asked Terry.
I’m saving my money up to buy a sixth baby spirit. The baby spirits do anything I want them to do for me sir.
‘Like what?
‘For one they make me prosperous.’
‘For two they will protect me and attack my enemies if I want them to.’
Curious Terry asked the driver how he obtained these so-called baby spirits.
The driver looked at Terry in his rear-view mirror and spoke, ‘well, for a start we must get a real baby to get its spirit.’
Yawning in boredom Terry said,
‘How do you get a real baby Sammy.’ Calling the driver by his first name.
The driver looked in the rearview mirror again and gave a cough then said, ‘Well, first we must get a woman to get her pregnant. Then we wait until the woman is seven or eight months pregnant. Then we get the baby out of her. Terry interjected and said in an angry voice, ‘You take the baby fetus from the woman at seven or eight months old. That’s murder Sammy!’
‘The woman is paid very well sir at the beginning of her getting pregnant.’ Unperturbed, the black-eyed driver continued with his tale, ‘then we put the baby in the hot sun to bake on the roof tops. Next, we pray and chant over the dead baby for forty days. Then we take that baby’s spirit to work for us.’
Terry was angry with the driver and said again that what he was doing was an act of murder. The driver was unimpressed with his passenger’s anger saying, sticking his chest out he said in a proud voice, ‘You are a foreigner here! We Buddhists have been doing this ritual for years and years.’
Terry had one last question to ask
