Unforgiving Day

            Christina begins to investigate when she realizes that a member of her family has gone missing every five years on Thanksgiving day, especially when evidence points to her as the next victim.  Her friends try to protect her, but sure enough, on Turkey day an Illuminati-like secret society takes her away.  Her friends band together to hunt her down as the Organization does a blood test and then subjects her to a series of weird rituals.
            The friends catch up with Christina in a massive underground temple and manage to interrupt what is about to be a human sacrifice, probably involving some sort of Cornucopia-esque soul vacuuming device.  The Organization isn’t just angry; they’re terrified, and as zombie Native Americans rise from the ground, armed with their animal spirit familiars, it becomes very clear why.  The sacrifice of a Pilgrim descendant to the spirits of the long betrayed Indian tribe has finally gone unfulfilled.

            So Christina finds herself the desired victim of two warring groups, the high tech but cult-ish Pilgrims and the undead Indians, in a battle that leaks out of the temple, and into the streets where it disrupts the small town equivalent of a Macy’s day parade.  And in order to escape and end the war, Christina must either sacrifice herself or find some way to make peace between the two parties, and this time the chiefs won’t be duped by a few strings of glass beads.
