Ringver-A Sci-fi/Action/Drama
Ringver
Act I Part 1
Int. Teen Household-Night
Two dozen teenagers are in the house, many talking and drinking while loud music is playing. ALICIA is looking through the fridge. She grabs a soda out and closer the fridge door before opening the soda.JEFF walks in clapping. ALICIA puts the soda down and wipes her lips.
Alicia
Like always, no one get's the joke but you. Mind explaining it to me?
JEFF walks over to ALICIA, putting his arm around her, ALICIA shoves JEFF off.
Jeff
I'm just congradulating you. It's been a whole hour and I haven't had to drag you out of here yet. I think that calls for another party in itself
ALICIA turns her back to JEFF
Alicia
Who the hell asked you to come anyway? Trevor should be here, not you.
JEFF casualy walks over towards the cupboards still looking at ALICIA.
Jeff
I don't know Alicia, oh wait, hold on, it's on the tip of my tounge. Wait, now I remember, Rion told me to come here to keep your night free of a hospital visit, and the reason Trevor's not here for you to take advantage of is because Rion's doing that with Trevor.
Alicia
Shut up, like you know anything. Did you actually think that maybe I like Trevor?
Jeff
You like controlling him. You know he won't say no or pull you out of a fight. That's why Rion likes to pull him along Trevor won't stop him.
Alicia
Why do you keep bringning Rion into this?
Jeff
He's the reason I have to put up with you, he wants to protect the damsel in distress
Alicia
Shut the hell up you idiot. Rion brought me in because we're cousins and he likes me. Why he let you in I'll never know.
Jeff
So you think Rion takes your side because he likes you as a friend? Let me ask you something, who's the last girl you've seen Rion with?
ALICIA gulps down more of her soda, then slams it on the counter.
Alicia
Why don't you just come out and say it shithead!
Jeff
You can figure it out, can't you princess? Or maybe you lack a little more at the top then muscle.
ALICIA runs over and tackles JEFF. ALICIA throws fist after fist while JEFF covers himself. JEFF then grab ALICIA's wrists and get's her off, standing up and above ALICIA while holdig her wrists, ALICIA thrashing about to get her wrists loose. ALICIA then kicks JEFF in the shin, JEFF letting go and staggering back. We see several teens gather outside the kitchen to watch.
ALICIA grabs her soda can and throws it at JEFF who ducks. ALICIA opens up the cupboard and taking out glasses. We look to the crowd to see PARTY HOST shoving through. JEFF ducks a glass thrown at him. PARTY HOST get's in front of ALICIA.
Party Host
You and your boyfriend take your shit out of here, I'll get the damn cops if I have to
Jeff
Oh, nice going princess
Alicia
Screw off!
Ext. Outside School-Night
RION and TREVOR are standing outside the front door, RION with a spraypaint can. TREVOR looks around worriedly holding an empty bag while RION sprays the front doors entirely in red, then drops the paint can in a pile of empty spraypaint cans. We get more of a close up towards them as a light begins to shine, RION and TREVOR running offscreen. We see PASSING BY COP step out of the car
Ext. Park-Night
RION and TREVOR are sitting on a bench together.
Rion
Don't worry Trevor, I don't think he got much of a glimpse of us before we got the hell out of dodge. Damn lapdog was too slow to catch us with those head lights(pauses to look around) The fall's coming up in just a few months, the weather's going to get colder again. We need to think about getting a real place to live, not just some tent(sighs) It's a nice tent, split into two big enough sleeping areas but in fall and winter that shit won't cut it. We better start scraping some money together for that.
Trevor
Y-you think w-we can Rion? That costs a l-lot more then, w-we've ever p-payed for
Rion
If we get everyone together to start saving some money on the side, hell yeah.
RION looks over with a look of distain. We see MR RILEY walking towards his car before cutting back to RION and TREVOR.
Trevor
W-w-what's wrong Rion?
Rion
Mr Riley, my math teacher from 8th grade.
Trevor
W-w-what d-di-did he do?
Rion
It's not what he did, it's what he is. It's what that lapdog who almost spotted us is. It's what I hate more then I could ever hate anything in this world.
TREVOR averts his eyes from Rionn and looks to the ground.
Rion
Let's get back. I'm tired, what about you?
Trevor
S-sure Rion
RION and TREVOR stand up.
Rion
You know, the expression sounds old, but I do really imagine what things would be like without you. With you, it's no arguments, no drama, just enjoyment. Thanks for giving me that.
Trevor
Thank you R-Rion
RION and TREVOR begin walking toward the left. During this next narrative, we see them walking down the street from a pan shot of downtown.
Rion(narative)
Trevor was the first one I met when I ran away. He lived at some run down Ophanage that was going on somekind of little field trip or something. Trevor got leaft behind, I found him crying near a bus stop. I got him calmed down and he told me what happened. Typical of Authority, leaving those of no benefit behind. I convinced him to stay with me. I got him to help me steal that tent we sleep in now, went without a hitch. Jeff and my cousin Alicia came after but there's always been something bigger between me and Trevor. The stupid little shitheads are already thinking homos, but you won't catch me dead kissing Trevor or holding hands. I wish I had a brother like Trevor growing up.
Ext. Streets-Night
ALICIA is walking behind JEFF.
Alicia
Nice going you stupid, damned asshole. You screwed up everything!
Jeff
Who was the one who struck first?
Alicia
Who opened his damn mouth? That was you asswipe! Go die!
ALICIA shoves JEFF who staggers towards the road.
Jeff
Watch it princess, you could've killed me.
Alicia
Too bad I didn't Jeff, that would've made my night! You have a lot of fucking nerve trying to say things like that about me!
Jeff
And you had a lot of nerve to go through a guy's cupboard and throw everything in it at me! We were both stupid, alright? Let's just drop this!
JEFF and ALICIA stand there for a moment, neither one looks at the other.
Alicia
You don't know anything about me, so stop pretending you do.
A short pause.
Jeff
You don't think anyone does. Rion made you a part of this little posse, you stay in it, but you still play lone wolf. Maybe that's what it was like when you were growing up, maybe you were a loner, but right now, you're part of a group, and if you don't cut this screw everyone else bull shit, it's going to bite you and one of us will be dragged down with it.
Alicia
Whatever.
Jeff
Let's just head back, I can already see where this is going.
Int. Tent-Night
RION is laying back with his head on his arms looking at the ceiling without his shirt on. From the zip open door, ALICIA crawls in, zippin the door back up.
Alicia
You know, this tent's been okay for the first few weeks we've been together, but I can only put up with so much more.
Rion
I'm with you. I talked to Trevor earlier, we're going to have to start saving up some money. That means you're going to have to start bringning some money in too.
Alicia
Sure, anything to put this behind me
ALICIA wipes the sweat off her face.
Rion
Hot in here isn't it Alicia?
ALICIA takes her shoes and socks off, RION laughs.
Rion
C'mon, we're grown ups here Alicia, that's not going to help cool you down.
RION comes from behind ALICIA and yans her shirt off, leaving only a bra on ALICIA's chest.
Alicia
Rion you stupid asshole!
Rion
Oh grow up Alicia, not like I haven't seen it before
Alicia
You son of a bitch, I should kick your ass for that!
On the othe side, JEFF is laying up against the tent wall, TREVOR laying on his back, both fully clothed.
Jeff
Yep, so Alicia the princess got us both kcked out. I don't think we'll be invited to future parties.
Trevor
I'm sorry about that Jeff.
Jeff
If anyone should be sorry, it should be Alicia. So, what did you and Rion do?
Trevor
Not much, just hung out
Jeff
C'mon buddy, do you see stupid written on my forehead? Tell me what you did
Trevor
He spraypainted the front doors to the local school in red paint, right after egging a parked police car
JEFF shakes his head.
Jeff
What the hell is he thinking? If he dosen't mind getting busted that's his own thing, but he shouldn't be doing it with you. Then again, maybe that's why. Take my advice Trevor, be very careful around Rion. Let's just say if a bus comes to get him, he may throw you under it to get out of it's way.
Ext Outside Tent-Night
The tent is just at the edge of a forest area. A hissing sound is heared, a purple monster named TRACKER standing outside the tent, sniffing around quickly. It looks at the tent, sniffing in it's directions, then gives a low hiss before walking off screen.
Ext Just Outside Forest-Day
We see WANDERING VICTIM walking by, then he stops and takes out his wllet. He takes out the money.
Wandering Victim
Okay, I just have to look one last time to make sure I have enough
RION shoves him down from behind, then sits on his bak and holds his ead down while pounding on it. JEFF picks up the fallen money, quickly counting it.
Jeff
240, that's all he got. There's no way I could've missed one.
Rion
Allright, save 50 for breakfast. we'll save the rest for the house
RION get's off WANDERING VICTIM, who is laying there unconcious.
Rion
So why exactly did you both leave the party so early?
Jeff
Alicia attacked me. She even took the guy's cups and started throwing them at me.
Rion
Sounds like Alicia allright.
Jeff
You mind telling me what in the hell her deal is?
Rion
She's been getting into fights since first grade, against boys mostly. That's why she got sent to boot camp a few years back.
Jeff
Looks like that had no effect
Rion
Actually it did. It made her even more violent. C'mon, her and Trevor and are waiting.
Int Tent-Day
TREVOR is sitting alone. ALICIA comes through the tent door, crawling up to TREVOR. She puts her chin on his shoulder.
Alicia
Good moning Trevy. You know I'm next door, don't sit here alone silly.
Trevor
I-I-I'm s-s-sor-r-ry Alicia
Alicia
Quit being so nervous Trevy.
ALICIA begins massaging TREVOR's shoulders. Then the door is uzipped, ALICIA letting go. RION pokes his head in.
Rion
C'mon, we're about ready for breakfast, aren't you?
Int Diner-Day
RION, ALICIA, JEFF and TREVOR are sitting at the table eating.
Rion(narrative)
Some things were pretty routine for us. Every night we slept in the tent, me with Alicia and Jeff and Trevor shared the other side. Then either from money we got the day before or like how we did today, we got money for breakfast, at all kinds of different places. After that and until we hit the sack, who knew what the hell would happen.
Ext Outside Diner-Day
RION, JEFF, TREVOR and ALICIA stood to the side of the entrance doors.
Jeff
Trevor's coming with me today, hope that's not inconvienant for you
Alicia
Whatever, I'll be by myself today
Jeff
Try not to end up in jail princess
Alicia
Whatever Jeff, just go
Jeff
Seriously, just be careful okay? Come back in one piece
JEFF and TREVOR walk off screen to the left, ALICIA to the right. RION remains there leaning against the wall. We get a shot from RION's POV of the streets ahead of him.
Rion(narrative)
Look at them all, just about every one of them nothing but slaves to authority. All of them under it's control, not even allowed to think beyond the limit authority sets for them, because they've been brainwashed too much to even try.
(the shot returns to a bitter faced RION)
(continued)
Somewhere out there some politician is taking away someone's home, some lapdog beating down a protester, some teacher teaching unquestioning loyalty to the goverment, and what I would give for the power to put an end to it all.
Int Mall-DAY
JEFF and TREVOR walk through the doors together.
Jeff
You've probaly had enough of Rion and Alicia dragging you around, it's about time you had some real fun around here
Trevor
It's not like that
Jeff
Yeah it is, I know what it's like. They don't like taking me along because I won't let them do this crap, they know you're too nice to say no
Trevor
So, what are we going to do without money? Rion said we have to save all the money we can
Jeff
We'll use mine I kept tucked away. So, what do you want to do? Movies, Arcade, what?
Trevor
You're asking me?
Jeff
Sure why not? I'm kind of wondering what to do myself.
Trevor
The Arcade sounds nice
Jeff
Good call, this place has the best games, as well as the best theaters and food.
JEFF and TREVOR walk off screen. The shot then moves over to show a young teen girl, MANKA, sitting near a fountain. She is looking looking all around her. Far off, MANKA still visible in the backgound, we see up close PASSERBY TEEN #! and PASSERBY TEEN #2 looking at her briefly.
Passerby Teen #1
Shit look at her, is that a collar on her neck?
Passeryby Teen #2
Look at her eyes, they're grey. I've never sen contacts like that.
Passerby Teen #1
What a freak, I bet you she's one of those "emo" kids
Paseryby Teen #2
Buy her a knife and she might go out with you
They both laugh as they walk off screen. We see MANKA's reflection in the water.
Manka
I should find someone soon.
Ext Outside School-Day
RION is standing just off school grounds, while we see the doors have been cleaned off except for a few places. RION then looks over at the parking lot at a red car.
Rion
Mr Riley's car
RION picksa large rock from the gravel and tossed it through the window of the red car. RION picks up another rock and throws it through another car window. STAFF MEMBER comes out through the door, RION running away.
RION stops down the block, looking behind him.
Rion
Got'em(pants) I'll do that to the rest of the cars too(pants) All of them
RION spits on the sidewalk, walking away.
Rion
Maybe it's not much, but if it means hurting you even a bit, I'll do it. Even a small scar towards you is worth it, I hate you so damned much, so fucking much.
RION slams his fist into his palm.
Rion
You'll never control me, never. I've already won, won by escaping your grip
RION stops walking, seeing a cop car speeding by. RION stares at the car as it speeds on ahead of him. We see the car moving in slow motion, RION's bitter glare at it.
Then the car moves in normal speed again. We then see in that same road RION's FATHER and RION's MOTHER up against a police car with YOUNGER RION standing there crying as OFFICER WILSON is sniffing RION's mother, another oficer, OFFICER WILSON standing with a night stick to the back of RION's FATHER's head.
Officer Wilson
We haven't found any alchohol this time, fortunately for you
They dissapear, RION clenching his fist.
Rion
No, it's not enough, it's not even close. Breaking widows, spraypainting doors, this bullshit won't cut it. I need to do more then that, much more. I need to do something they will never, ever, ever forget.
Int Bar-Day
We see BARTENDER looking at a fake ID, ALICIA sitting in front of him. BARTENDER shakes his head.
Bartender
I didn't start yesterday little girl, you're not fooling me with this shit
BARTENDER throws the card on the floor. ALICIA leaps over the counter at BARTENDER and stars punching her. JIMMY runs over and grabs ALICIA around the waist, pulling her off.
Bartender
You better take my damn advice bitch, you keep pulling that shit and you're going to have a short life. No, I won't do it but someone out there will kill ya for less then that
Alicia
Whatever, just shut the hell up
ALICIA elbows JIMMY in the face and storms out.
EXT Outside Bar-Day
ALICIA is leaning against the wall outside the bar with a depressed look on her face.
Alicia(narrative)
I can't blame Jeff for hating me, a lot of people do and I don't have anyone to blame but myself. I keep letting my temper get the best of me. I lost all my friends and a lot of free time in detention because of it. I even ruined my 12th birthday party when I beat up some girl for laughing at a present I got. Now it's gotten to the point where every thing I do, I end up getting set off.
ALICIA looks up at the sky. JIMMY steps out through the doors.
Jimmy
You're pretty violent for a girl. He could've broken you in half
Alicia
Sorry about hitting you, just the wrong time and place
Jimmy
(laughs)Yeah I guess. How old are you anyway?
Alicia
Eighteen
Jimmy
I'm twenty two. Name's Jimmy, what's yours?
Alicia
(sighs) Alicia, my name's Alicia.
Jimmy
I could get us both some drinks
ALICIA steps away from the wall, grabbing JIMMY by the shirt.
Alicia
YOU THINK I'M JUST SOME PRIZE YOU CAN WIN!
ALICIA let's JIMMY go, turning away from him.
Alicia
I'm Sorry
ALICIA walks away.
Int Mall Arcade-Day
JEFF is playing at an arcade machine while TREVOR stands nearby.
Jeff
Used up all your tokens already?
Trevor
Sorry
Jeff
What are you apoligizing for? Sucking?(slaps TREVOR on the back) Loosen up Trev!
JEFF stops playing the machine.
Jeff
Well that was my last, see, you only suck at games slightly more then me
Trevor
Thank you for doing all this for me
Jeff
No problem, anytime. Being alone's no fun, Alicia's a pain in the ass, Rion's tolerable so that puts you first in line
JEFF stops, SANDY and JILLIAN walking in.
Jeff
Hey Trevor, let's give them a try
Trevor
But-
Jeff
Hey, you have a shot, alright? C'mon
JEFF and TREVOR walk over towards them.
Jeff
Hey, you two new around here?
Sandy
Yeah, I'm Sandy and this is Jillian
Jeff
Nice to met ya, I'm Jeff and this is Trevor
Jillian
Aw, look Sandy, he's so nervous
SANDY lifts TREVOR's chin up.
Sandy
So, you're Trevor?
TREVOR nervously nods. SANDY takes out a piece of paper writing down on it, then hands the slip to TREVOR.
Sandy
That's my cell on top and my home on bottom, give me a call sometime
SANDY kisses TREVOR on the cheek before her and JILLIAN walk away.
Jeff
Damn it man, are you a pro at this or something?
JEFF turns and looks through the doors, JEFF's FATHER and NAIVE WOMAN talking happily. JEFF stares with a clenched fist for a long moment.
Trevor
J-Jeff?
JEFF shakes his head and turns to TREVOR.
Jeff
Looks like you're a regular chick magnet, who knew. Go see if there are any prizes we can get with the tickets we got
TREVOR walks off screen, JEFF watching as JEFF's FATHER is kissing NAIVE WOMAN.
Jeff(narrative)
I feel like dying everytime I see that bastard, either dieing or killing him, the later more then anything. I could joke about almost anything, but not him. I wouldn't even laugh at his funeral, but I would definetly burn the casket
JEFF's FATHER and NAIVE WOMAN walk away.
Jeff
Burn in hell you son of a bitch
EXT Dead End-Day
A tall man with one hand gloved, VIRGIL, is standing at a dead end in an alley as TRACKER and a four armed creature, RIPPER, stand there.
Virgil
The most important things are rarely the easiest to come by
THUG steps out with a gun pointed at him.
Thug
I don't know what in the friggin hell you are, but you better get the hell out of here or I swear to God I'll kill you
Virgil
You're trembiling, uncertain about whether you're even actually beholding this sight before you, aiming at me little more then a toy.
VIRGIL pulls off the glove, revealing a green, slimy hand. VIRGIL grabs the gun and crushes it in his hand.
Virgil
Tracker, Ripper, tear him apart
We only see their shadows as THUG is ripped apart.
End of Part One

Ringver
Act I Part II
Ext Street-Day
RION is standing in front of a newspaper vending machine, staring at the paper through the glass.
Rion(narrative)
Of all of authoritie's toys, the military I have a little sympathy for. Duped in by propaganda and a false sense of pride for their country, it makes me sick, all of it. Ruined for life, made to kill and will never get over it.
Manka walks up to Rion.
Manka
You look angry
Rion looks at her.
Rion
What do you want?
Manka
You look like you want to kill someone. That interests me
Rion
Go away you freak
Rion begins walking away, Manka grabbing his wrist. Rion yanks it away and slaps Manka across the face. Manka's head only is moved, turning around with a small bleeding from the lips.
Rion
Look, don't touch me alright? I don't like people telling me what to do
Manka
I could help with that
Rion
What's that supposed to mean?
Manka
Follow me, and I guarentee you no one in this world will be able to order you around
Rion
What are you pulling bitch?
Manka
Come with me and find out. You want the power to say no to anyone, don't you? I can give it to you
Rion
I've had it with this shit
Manka
What do you have to lose? Are you afraid I'll hurt you?
Rion
I'm not afraid of girls
RION stares at MANKA. MANKA turns and walks into an alley, RION following her. MANKA stops in fron t of a wiggiling black ball. RION shoves her aside to look at it.
Rion
What is that?
Manka
Ringver
The ball suddenly latches onto Rionchest, Rion falling down as the ball begins to liquidate and spread over his body.
Ext Bus Stop-Day
Alicia leans on the sign, staring at the ground. RANDOM TEEN walks up, standing just a couple of inches from her.
Alicia
What the hell do you want?
Random Teen
Calm down, I'm waiting for the bus like you
Alicia
GET THE HELL AWAY FROM ME!
Alicia kicks at Random Teen who runs off screen.
Alicia
Hate this damn town, hate these damn people. I hate everyone, all these people can go straight to hell! I don't need damn Rion, damn Jeff, I'll go on my own, my own!
Jeff and Trevor are seen across the street, quickly crossing over next to Alicia.
Alicia
What are you two doing here?
Jeff
Free country princess, whatever we want. Where's your cousin?
Alicia
How should I know?
Jeff
You're in an awfuly pissy mood princess
Alicia shoves Jeff.
Alicia
How about you shut up before I kick your ass?
Jeff
Just calm down will you?
Alicia grabs Trevor by the wrist and yanks him over.
Alicia
Let's go Trevor
Jeff
Excuse me, I missed the part where Trevor said yes
Alicia
Sorry Jeff, your boyfriend's going to spend the night with me
Jeff
Oh yeah, and I suppose-
Trevor
Jeff, wait, I'll do it, I don't want to start an argument
Jeff
You don't have to take any from her, shove her on her ass, what's she gonna
do?
Alicia
What I did to you at the party last night. Let's go Trevor
Alicia walks off screen holding onto Trevor's wrist, Trevor walking with Alicia. Jeff then turns and walks away.
Jeff(v.o)
This is what our little posse's typical day is like, arguments, and the reason why was obvious. Rion can be a pain in the ass with some of the crap he pulls but we get along, Trevor never starts crap, it's Alicia. If Alicia weren't one of us, things would be so much easier.
Ext Alley-Day
Alicia has Trevor pinned up against the wall, her arms near Trevor's.
Alicia
Listen to me Trevor, you're the only person I want to be with. This little group of ours is no good, no good for us. We're going to ditch them and make it on our own.
Trevor
W-w-wait A-a-alicia, w-we, y-you, n-n, we sh-sh, n-
Alicia slaps Trevor.
Alicia
Just say it Trevor!
Trevor
I don't want to leave
A pause.
Alicia
So you don't care about me
Trevor
N-no, t-that's not, not what I'm saying
Alcia grabs Trevor by the shoulders.
Alicia
It's me or them Trevy
Trevor
I-I can't ch-choose
Alicia throws Trevor to the ground.
Alicia
Stop stuttering, that is so annoying, I hate it, I hate you!
Alicia slams her fist into the wall. She then recoils and holds her fist, which is bleeding from the knuckles. Trevor get's up, going to look at the fist.
Trevor
Are you alright? A-Alicia?
Alicia(v.o)
There I go again, screwing everything up.
Alicia runs away from Trevor.
Alicia(cont. as she runs)
Why do I even care about Trevor, he's no different from anyone else. This group has been falling apart for months, I knew it would from the start. Forget you Rion, you and all your crap, and baggage, your lies. I'm done with it all.
Int Diner-Day
Jeff is sitting at a table, looking at a newspaper left on the table. Sandy walks over in waitress uniform. Jeff looks up at her.
Jeff
Hey I remember you, you work here?
Sandy
Yeah. Say, where's your cute friend?
Jeff
Out on involuntary leave
Sandy
What happened?
Jeff
It's a long story
Sandy
I'm on break
Sandy sits across from Jeff.
Jeff
I'll be straight with you, if you promise not to say a word
Sandy
I won't, now tell me, I can't take the suspense now
Jeff
Trevor and I are runaways. We're part of a small group, with two other run aways, one of them a girl name Alicia
Sandy
Oh, so he, has a girlfriend. Wow, I'm so embaressed
Jeff
No, Trevor isn't her boyfriend, however she likes to force him into things, which is what she's doing right now, and Trev's going along with it to prevent a fight
Sandy
A fight? You don't mean a physical one?
Jeff
Possibly. Alicia's a violent, violent girl, she'll fight over almost anything.
Sandy
Where are they now?
Jeff
Don't know, I'd like to though
A brief pause.
Employer(off screen)
Hey Miss Tullock, break's over
Sandy
I get out at 5:00, can you be here then?
Jeff
No problem, see you then
Ext Alley-Day
Manka is sitting up against the wall, Rion covered up by the black liquid.
Manka
It'll take a few more hours at least before the process is finished
Rion
Hey Jeff, bet you never heard this one, listen. This guy goes into this bar, right? He goes up to the bartender who asks him to do him a favour. He has an alligator with a sore tooth and a girl who can't get an orgasm. So the guy goes over there, you hear alligator squeals, then the guy comes out and asks about the girl with the sore tooth
Rion let's out a more lighthearted laugh.
Rion
Screw you, I retold it close enough you asshole
Manka turns her head away, looking in the opposite direction.
Rion
Relax Alica, my parents aren't home yet, so they can't stop us from doing anything. In fact-
Cut to:
Int. Rion's Living Room-Night
Alicia and Rion are sitting on the couch together.
Rion
They won't be home until tomorrow night
Alicia
Wait, they trusted you home alone?
Rion
They have since I was 13
Alicia
Wow, they trust Rion the rebel home alone, my parents would never trust me. In fact if they knew there was no one here to watch us, they would've taken me on that boring ass trip with them. I really just hate them some times, I really just hate them...
Rion
Who dosen't hate parents. (tone becomes bitter) Controlling you, making you into a clone of them, shoving their views down your throat like a food down a funnel
Alicia
Rion?
A long pause, then Rion let's out a light hearted laugh.
Rion(tone returning to normal)
Let's just have some fun. Did you bring them?
Alicia takes a bookbag from the side of the couch and puts it on her lap, unzipping it
Alicia(taking out each item as she names it)
6 pack of beer, money for pizza, and "play time" (handcuffs)
Rion
Put the beer in the fridge
Alicia
Excuse me? I'm not your maid

put it away then, can you at least order the pizza? Thanks Alicia
Ext Outside Diner-Night
Jeff leans against one of the doors. After a brief moment, Sandy comes out in regular clothing with a bookbag on her back.
Sandy
Anything from Trevor yet?
Jeff
No. I don't have a cell phone or anything, I used to but I lost it somehow. I don't think Trevor does either.
Sandy
Are you worried about him?
Jeff
A litle but I think he'll be fine. Trevor's smart, he'll run if things get too bad.
Sandy
Listen, if you have the time, we could, you know, grab a bite to eat
Jeff
Hold the phone, I thought you had a crush on Trevor?
Sandy
We're not going steady or anything, besides, I realy don't wanna go home right now
Jeff
Why not?
Sandy
I'd rather not get into it. So are you in or not?
Jeff
Sure, so, where d you want to go?
Virgil walks pat them into the diner.
Int Diner-Night
Virgil sits at a table, looking at the sports game on the TV hangning up.
Virgil
Humans are not that different from us after all, the same basic instincts, a thirst for darkness and violence in our life
Virgil looks over the entire Diner.
Virgil
She's not here, but it's a small town and her scent is in it. Just what are you up to these days my girl, running here in a vain attempt to pretend your life is anything but a demon clawing at your very core, or perhaps you're here on his orders. Maybe a little of both. Yes I always find it's somewhere in the middle
Int Fast Food Place-Night
Jeff and Sandy are sitting across from each other.
Sandy
I can't stand the Diner all those hours, no way was I going to eat there
Jeff
It's cool, this place is fine. So, are you a run away?
Sandy
No, but I've been thinking about it
Jeff
So why haven't you? Must be bad at home for you to want to come out with me(laughs)
Sandy
I donb't know why
Jeff
You could come with us. It would be nice to have a girl around who's not a pain in the ass
Sandy
Maybe, maybe I could. I'm scared though, if I get caught and brought back to my parents...
Jeff
What? What is it Sandy?
Sandy stands up.
Sandy
I have to go home, I'm sorry
Jeff stands up.
Jeff
What happened to not wanting to go? C'mon, you can tell me, I told you I was a run away, you can tell me
They both sit back down.
Sandy
She hits me, okay? Can we just drop it?
Jeff
Who's SHE?
Sandy
My mom, who do you think?
Jeff
What about your dad?
Sandy
He dosen't do it himself but he supports it and covers up for her
Jeff dons an intense expression on his face.
Jeff
Listen to me, you have to get out of that house, I mean it
Sandy
I can't do that
Jeff
Yes you can and you have to
Sandy
You don't understand-
Jeff
No, I do, my dad pulled the same crap on me and mom, I know what it's like, and if you stay there, it's just going to get worse
Sandy
I told you, if they catch me Jeff, I'm a goner
Jeff
Then don't let them. Come on, you can't stay there. You could at least TRY the police, you hace a cell right? Call them right after they hit you again, you'll have all the evidence you need
Sandy
Why didn't you do that?
Jeff
I didn't think of it at the time to be honest.
Sandy
It won't work anyway, they keep me locked up afterwards to avoid that
Jeff
Then run away
A teen is seen getting up and walking out past their table.
Sandy
I'll think about it

Ore-sama.
I read this once earlier and didn't respond, so let me apologize for delaying that. Right now, I'm having a bit of trouble deciding what all this is about and who these people are. There's a lotta talk in the first scene, and suddenly... a balls to the wall fight. A lotta people being thrown together... but not so much a hint of sci fi or action... I kept thinking, is this going to be the scene that gets people to shut up and watch the movie after the credits? Not yet. If I were you, I'd consider adding some more... such as a scene showing a hint of the sci fi event yet to come... maybe each person's prep for the party in a montage during the credits (if we see Alicia pack condoms in her purse and put on "come hither" red lipstick in her mirror only to find Trevor isn't at the party... we won't need a lotta Jeff's exposition. Same with everyone else at the party. You could show a lot more about each character before we get to the party scene.
Now... then I get confused becuase they all seem to be living in a tent in the next couple of scenes. Why is Alicia trying to hit on Trevor at a party if Trevor is already sleeping a few feet from her?
Formatting/scene-wise... I think you could cut most of your scenes down to what's important. The banter between Jeff and Alicia gets repetative a few scenes in, so I'd use it in moderation. Scene by scene, their dynamic will add up. I also feel there's a lot more talk than action going on per scene. You need talk and action for a script. Each scene kinda plays as a small story... it begins, something happens, and it ends.
But you are writing away, it seems, and that's, of course, great news. I wish I was as prolific. I'd suggest keep going and when you start to revise, some of this will become much easier to work on since you've been around your characters so much longer.
Cheers,
Kay

Thanks for the response. However,
"Why is Alicia trying to hit on Trevor at a party if Trevor is already sleeping a few feet from her?"
Trevor wasn't at the party, he was with Rion while he was vandalizing the school building. Also, Alicia sleeps with Rion while Trevor is in the opposite side, split up by a wall inbetween(hard to explain, it's like one of those double tents)
Anyway, as for why she's hitting on him, Alicia drove away any friends she had with her uncontrollable rage. Alicia and Rion have an, ahem, heavily implied relationship but Alicia is losing interest in him so wants Trevor.
As for the sci-fi hints, they would be easier to catch onscreen then in a script(Tracker Alien outside the tent, Virgil with his green hand) Manka is an alien herself though this isn't noticeable until the second half of Act I. The action is slow to start up yes but that's just my personal preference, I could see how a viewer might be anxious. Some of my favorite action films like Aliens are slow to start up, so that's how I do it. I'm perfectly cool with you thinking the action should start earlier though, I can see reasoning for that.
The rest of your advice is true. I just read a screenwriting book recently that warned against over use of dialouge. You'll notice in Act II there is less emphasis on dialouge then action.
Don't take offence to any contradictions, I value any constructive input offered to me. The action will start the next act and there won't be overkill on dialouge. I would revise the first acts now but I've been told not to do that until you're finished.

Ringver
Act II Part I
Int Tent-Night
Trevor sits against the wall of the tent. He let's out a sigh, fidgeting around.
CARS DRIVING BY as well as CRICKET'S CHIRPING are heard from
outside the tent.
Trevor looks to the tent door, now we hear WIND BLOWING, the walls of the
tent flapping a little. Trevor crawls over to the tent door, unzipping it and sticking
his head out. No one is seen, Trevor coming back in and zipped the tent up.
Ext Alley-Night
Manka is standing at the front of the alley, staring out at the road. Manka
continues
standing and staring at the road until we hear Rion groaning, Rion's voice slightly
deeper and more alien sounding.
Manka(not even turning around)
The fusion is complete, you are now Ringver
Rion stands up, looking around, then at his arms. His armor is white with blue
streaks over his arms and legs and his face covered by a black screen. On his
left arm is a small spiral shaped blaster.
Rion walks up to Manka and spins her around, grabbing her by the shoulders.
Manka
This is the Ringver armor, the most powerful on field weapon in existence.
It's been sythesising with your body and mind. Go ahead, use it's power.
Rion points the blaster up, the blaster glowing yellow before firing off
a shot into the sky. A small blue blade come sout of his right arm,
stabbing into the wall and then pulling it out. Rion then flies just
above the ground.
Rion
Tell me what's going on, how am I working this?
Manka
Like I said, your mind and body are synthesised. The Ringver's workings
are of no mystery to you.
A POV shot shows a yellow marker on Manka, Manka glowing yellow. The shot
then returns to a normal view. Manka and Rion stae at eachother.
Manka
You're free to use this armor for any purpose you desire. However there is
something you should know(brief pause) Our lives are now connected by
this armor. If you die, I die, and vise versa. So I'll have to remain with you
for the rest of your natrual born life
Rion continues to stare.
Int Hotel Bathroom-Night
Alicia runs her hands under the running sink water, wiping the water on her face.
Alicia pants, wiping her lips . She turns the sink off, walking out into her
hotel room and falls back on her bed, staring up at the ceiling. After a moment,
she sits up, grabbing the remote off the counter near her bed and turns the
television on. She continues to flip through the channels.
Alicia
Do I even care what's on? It all sucks
Alicia tosses the remote into the wll across the room. Alicia falls back on the bed,
closing her eyes.
Ext Highway-Night
OFFICER WILSON and PARTNER are chasing down DERANGED CRIMINAL.
Partner tackles Deranged Criminals to the ground, grabbing his cuffs as
Deranged Criminal struggles to pull out. Partner pulls his hands behind him
and cuffs his hands together, then pulls Deranged Criminal to his feet.
Oficer Wilson
You are under the arrest for the murder of Ryan Armstrong.
You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and
will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to
an attourney, if you can not afford one, one will be provided for
you.
Partner walks Deranged Criminal away, Officer Wilson following. Partner
stops, looking up.
Partner
Wilson, look at that, what the hell is that?
Rion, in ringver armor, is floating in the sky. He slowly floats down,
landing in front of them. Deranged Criminal starts screaming and pulling away.
Partner shoves Deranged Criminal to the ground, him and Wilson staring at
Rion, who stares at Wilson. They continue staring in silence.
Rion starts pacing back and forth, keeping his gaze on Wilson.
Deranged Criminal
What are you doing? Get me out of here, get me the fuck
out of here!
Rion's blade comes out, Rion pointing it at Deranged Criminal.
Deranged Crimnal keeps silent.
Rion
You don't look too different, do you?
Wilson
What are you talking about?
Rion
I remember you, that's how I found you. I can track down
anyone I've seen, and I can still see you sniffing my mother.
No beer THIS time
Partner stares at Wilson in disbelief, Wilson looking at Rion in
disbelief, Rion continuing to pace back and forth
Wilson
Wait, I, I remember that
Rion
Yeah(raises his blaster and charges it up) Now shut up,
and die
We see Rion's feet, the sound of the BLAST immidiately followed by a SCREAM.
We then see Partner going to check down, the Blaster charged up again,
another shot fired. Rion let's out a loud, maniacal laugh.
Cut to:
An Ambulance and several police cars along parked nearby, CSI men
looking over the bodies, in the background Deranged Criminal is being
forced into a police car.
CSI Man
What in the hell happened out here?
Int Tent-Night
Jeff enters the tent, Trevor fast asleep.
Jeff
It's later then I thought. Might as well hit the hay myself
Cut to:
Ext Outside Tent-Night
Rion and Manka stand outside the tent, Rion in his normal form.
Rion
Just remember, no word about Ringver to any of them
Int Tent-Night
We are in Rion and Manka's side of the tent. Rion is trembiling with a maniacal
smile.
Rion
What a rush it was Manka, I killed them, I did it,
I landed a blow they'll never forget! He was only
the first, I can dwindle them little by little, until their
is no police force. They won't be able to keep me,
or anyone else down, ever again.
Ext Alley-Day
Manka runs in, holding a CD in her hand, immidiately followed by LONE
OFFICER. Lone officer grabs Manka by the wrist.
Lone Officer(while handcuffing Manka)
You have the-
Ringver Rion(offscreen)
right to remain silent, anything you say can and will
be used against you in a court of law. You have the
right to an attourney, if you can not afford one, one
will be provided for you. I was close, right? You forgot
to tell her what she was charged with, but it's an easy
slip up to make
Lone Officer
What the hell? Who's out there?
Ringver Rion floats down in front of Lone Officer, his blue blade coming out.
We only see Manka standing there, a few splashes of blood landing on her.
Ringver Rion cuts the cuffs with his blade.
Ringver Rion
How can I thank you for giving me
this power?
Manka
Nothing, just stay true to your mission
Ringver Rion
We better get going
Manka jumps on Rion's back and holds on, Rion
flying off.
Ext Outside Tent-Day
Rion returns to normal upon landing, Manka getting off Rion's back. Jeff and Trevor
step outside the tent.
Jeff
Who the hell is this?
Rion
This is Manka, she's going to be staying with us
Jeff
What, is she your girlfriend?
Manka
My relationship with Rion is purely platonic
Jeff looks at Manka with bewilderment, Trevor staying
behind Jeff.
Rion
Anyway, that's Jeff, and behind him is Trevor
Manka
Hello
Manka walks up to Jeff, extending her hand for a shake. Jeff stared at her still, then
took her hand and shook it. Manka when walked up to Trevor and extended her
hand, Trevor nervously acceping it.
Rion
Hey, where's Alicia? She's not sleeping with you?
Jeff
No, I thought she was in there
Jeff looks to the tent.
Jeff
Trev, where did she go?
Trevor
I don't know, sh-she ran off
Rion
She'll be back, let's go get breakfast
Jeff
I don't know Rion, you know what she's like, she can't
stay out of trouble
Rion
Okay, I'll find her, you two take Manka out for breakfast
Manka
I require no food
Rion stares at Manka.
Rion
Fine, then just stay with them while they eat,
and for the day for that matter
Rion runs offscreen. Jeff and Trevor turn to Manka.
Jeff
You sure you aren't hungry?
Manka
I don't require food
Jeff
Do you mind sitting with us while we
eat?
Manka
No
Jeff
So, you don't want to?
Manka
I don't mind sitting near you while
you eat
Jeff
Oh, well c'mon then
Jeff slaps Manka on the back walking forward.
Manka lowers her head.
Manka
I'm sorry
Jeff stops walking.
Jeff
For what?
Manka
I must've done something wrong, that's why
you hit me
Trevor
N-n-no, Jeff was b-being n-nice
Jeff
You've never been given a friendly slap
on the back?
Manka
No. Let's proceed to breakfast
Manka walks ahead, Jeff shaking his head and looks
at Trevor.
Jeff
Where does Rion find these people?
Int Hotel Room-Day
Alicia throws a glass plate across the room.
Alicia
Crappy room service, make ME wait that long huh?
Rion opens the door.
Alicia
Okay, how did you find me and how about knocking?
Rion
Hey, I have my ways of finding people. Now
what are you here doing blowing tons of
money?
Alicia
What's it to you, it's my money
Rion
We're supposed to be saving up so we can
buy a place to live, I thought you didn't want
to live in a tent anymore?
Alicia turns her back to Rion, walking towards the wall.
Alicia
Wake up Rion, it'll never happen. Jeff and Trevor are spending
money on crap, so am I, and I bet you are too.
Rion turns aroud and walks to the door way, standing there. Alicia
runs her hand up and down the wall. Rion turns and walks up to
Alicia, holding her closely to him, going for a kiss. Alicia elbows
Rion in the shoulder, Rion letting go and staggering back. Alicia
turns around angrily.
Alicia
Don't you get it Rion, I'm not interested in
you anymore! Our time is over, I don't want
you as a boyfriend!
Alicia catches her breath.
Rion
You think it works that way Alicia, huh? You
that way, that you can jus turn me off? (raises
voice) Who saved you?
Alicia takes a step back.
Alicia
Y-you better not even go there Rion! That's
not fair!
Rion
You never were the same after coming back
from that boot camp. You never told anyone
what happened, except me.
Alicia
Stop it Rion!(becomes teary eyed)
Rion
You were going to be sent to another one, until
you ran away, and who was it that took you in?
I did(raises voice again) It was me! Me! I'm the
one that sticks up for you, the only one who even
gives a damn about you(yelling)And you know
what, no one ever will but me! Funny how things
always come back to me! Why don't you think
about that next time you worthless bitch!
Rion storms out of the room, stopping in the hallway.
Rion
I'll see you tonight Alicia, for play time
(to himself) After I cut down more numbers
Alicia walks over, slamming the door shut. She let's out
a scream, going over to the counter and grabbing the lamp, smashing
it into the wall. She then grabs the TV, yanking it off and pulling the cords
from the wall, smashing the TV through the window. She then goes over to
the wall and smashes her fist into the wall, which once again bleeds. Alicia
keeps smashing that same fist into the wall repeatedly.
Alicia(during this portion)
(repeatedly screaming)Damn it!
Alicia then turns her backto the wall, slumping down to a sitting
position up to her body and starts crying heavily.

Int Diner-Day
Jeff is sitting across from Trevor, Manka sitting on the
end with the back of the chair facing the wall. Jeff and
Trevor have plates wth half eaten food in front of them.
Jeff
So that Trevor, is how not to go on a first date
Jef and Trevor both give a heartily laugh, Manka sitting
apatheticaly. Jeff looks to Manka.
Jeff
Not your kind of humour huh?
Manka
I'm afraid I don't understand this kind of humour
Jeff
So what kind of humour do you like?
Manka
I don't know.
Jeff
Well, what makes you laugh
Manka remains silent for a moment.
Manka
Flowers
Jeff
Um, what?
Manka
They're alive yet posses no thought, no emotion.
They just remain there unphased by anything. Even
if they are damaged, yelled at, scorned, it dosen't
matter to them. People stare at them, comment,
yet they do not respond.
Jeff
Well when I come up with good jokes about
flowers I'll let you know.
Trevor
W-w-well, if umm, y-you l-l-like
flowers, there, buy, I-I could buy you s-some
Jeff gives Trevor a bewildered look.
Trevor
I-I'm s-s-sorry, I won-
Manka
That, would be nice
Trevor looks down at the floor. WAITRESS comes by, Jeff putting an arm out in front
of her.
Jeff
Excuse me, do you know where Sandy Tullock is?
Waitress
She ony works from 12 to 7
Jeff
Thanks
Waitress walks of screen.
Trevor
Sandy?
Jeff
Yep, she just got out of highschool and got
a job here, the girl we met at the mall, her and
her friend
Trevor
Oh
Jeff
Looks like you found your match though, and
you're already making moves on her. Nice
Trev, nice!
Jeff gives Trevor a high five.
Ext School Roof-Day
Ringver Rion is looking down at the school parking lot. He aims his
blaster at a car, firing a shot at it, blowing the windshield. Rion then
continues firing shots at other cars, MR RILEY, PRINCIPAL, and
CUSTODIAN, followed by MR GOLDSMITH.
Mr Riley
Someone call the damn cops!
Ringver Rion
Call as many as you want, I'll pick them all off!
Mr Goldsmith runs inside the school.
Principal
What , who, is that? Is that somekind of costume?
Rion aims his blaster at Mr Riley, charging it up.
Mr Riley
Stop this! What the fuck are you doing!
Ringver Rion
Shut up and die!
Rion fires the shot down, we then se in the window RILEY'S SON
watching in horror before running off. PRINCIPAL and CUSTODIAN
bend down to check over.
Custodian
Shit, he's bleeding like hell! That son of a bitch!
Several police cars arrive, many officers stepping out and
pointing their guns at Rion. CHIEF WILLIAM steps out of
one of the cars with a megaphone.
Chief Williams
What is he?
Chief Williams looks over at Principal who is leaning
over Riley, Custodian running from the door.
Custodian
There's an ambulance coming right ove
Rion stares at the police, crouched on the roof.
Chief WIlliams(speaking in the Megaphone)
I don't know what in the name of God you are but if you don't
come down now, we will take fire
RILEY'S SON runs out, CUSTODIAN running over and grabing him,
pulling him back into the school. An Ambulance arives, several
medics coming out, two of them running over with a stretcher for
Riley, the othes staring at Rion in shock
Rion fires a shot at a cop.
Chief Williams(megphone)
You rotten son of a bitch! Open fire, now!
The bullets hit Rion, almost knocking him over as Rion
shields himself. Rion quickly flies up into the air, firing a
shot at Chief Williams, an officer diving in and shoving
Chief Williams out of the way, the shot hitting that officer instead.
Chief Williams looks at the officer in shock
Other officers continue to fire, Rion shielding himself, getting knocked
back little by little. Rion looks from the officers to Riley's Son,
pointing the blaster at him and charging it up.
Chief Williams(megaphone)
You rotten bastard! Don't you dare!
Rion keeps getting pelted back by bullets, Rion flying away, then charging up his
blaster and firing two shots at the Ambulance as Mr Riley is being loaded in,
blowing it up. Rion let's out a maniacal laugh.
Ringver Rion
You can't control me or anyone any more! I won't stop until
every last lap dog cop and facist skinhead in the goverment is
dead, and every last person is free! Remember my name, the
name of Ringver!
Rion flies offscreen, Riley' Son breaking down and crying, Custodian with
a hand on his shoulder while holding back tears himself. We see the faces
of many students from the windows, staring in shock, as well as teachers.
Chief Williams stares at the burning Ambulance with an expression of
horror.
Ext Outside Flower Store-Day
Trevor is standing just outside with Manka.
Manka
So, why do you want to buy me a flower?
Trevor
Y-y-you s-s-aid you l-liked flowers
Manka
Why does that matter?
Trevor
W-w-well(slaps himself)I like you
and thought y-you would l-like, I,
y-you would, w-w-w-want one
Manka
You, like me?
Trevor looks to the ground.
Manka
I think I will accept a flower
Trevor
R-r-really?
Manka
If you wish
Trevor
W-well is that what Y-YOU want?
Manka turns her head, seeing Virgil walking down the street
across from her.
Manka
Let's go
Manka quickly walks into the store, Trevor following. Virgil turns his
head towards the store. He snickers and then walks away.
Int Diner-Day
Sandy drops a tray off at a table, Jef coming in through the door way and
walking up to her.
Jeff
Hey Sandy, how you doing?
Sandy
Me? Oh fine, fine
Jeff
That's good. Well, I found Trevor last night
Sandy
That's great!
Jeff
Yeah, but um Sandy, I think he's interested in
another girl
Sandy
Aw, really?
Jeff
Yep, sorry about that
Sandy
Well I guess I knew it could happen, he's so cute
Jeff leans closer to Sandy.
Jeff(whispering)
Were you fine at home?
Sandy(whispering back)
I got a few hits but I'll be okay. Now I
have to get back to work.
Sandy walks away.
Ext Park-Day
Rion, in normal form, is sitting on a park bench, wiping his forehead. He stares at
the grass for a moment, then titls his head back so it's looking up at the sky.
Rion(v.o)
They're all in a panic now, panic because I have the power now, not
them. Those bullets were a damn pain but I was still the one to strike
the decisive blow. Not only that, Alicia and I are going to pick up where
we left off. I'm finally in control for once, of everything.
Rion loks over, seeing WIDOW crying in fron of DETECTIVE BURGESON.
Widow then cries on Bureson's shoulder, Burgeson hugging her while
holding back his own tears.
Burgeson
Your husband was always a great man, he gave his life just
to make sure another man could go back home, to a happy family
Rion tuns his head and spits on the ground.
Rion
Typical lapdog mourning a fellow lapdog, along with
a brainwashed sheep. I'd like nothing more ten a shot at
them, but I can't blow my cover.
Rion get's up and walks away, looking out to see several parked police cars, even
SWAT trucks driving by with other police cars.
Rion
Already have them scrambiling.

Ringver
Act II Part II
Into Flower Shop-Day
Manka stands there staring at the flowers, Trevor standing next to her.
Trevor
S-s-so, which, what, w-which one do you want M-M-Manka?
Manka dosen't respond, simply staring at them. Manka then chuckles lightly, picking out a Dandelion.
Ext Outside Flower Shop-Day
Manka is walking in front of Trevor, looking at the Dandelion intently.
Trevor
Y-Y-You like it M-Manka? S-Sorry, I-I'm nervous
Manka stops walking, still staring at the Dandelion. Then she looks at Trevor.
Manka
I have no intention of harming you, why are you nervous?
Trevor looks away.
Trevor
I-I-I'm nervous a-around most pe-pe-people, es, especialy g-girls
Manka puts her right hand on the top of Trevor's head, Trevor shooting Manka a nervous glance.
Manka
You're very interesting Trevor, very interesting.
Manka pats Trevor's head before removing her hand. Trevor looks away shyly. Manka grabs Trevor by the wrist, then let's go and
grabs his hand instead, Trevor overwhelmed.
Manka
May we go elsewhere Trevor?
Trevor
Oh,s-sure. W-where would you like to, to go?
Manka
You may decide our next destination.
Trevor
O-okay. A movie, okay?
Manka nods, looking back to the Dandelion in her other hand. A police car is seen in the background.
Int Mall-Day
Alicia stands among a crowd of people, staring at the floor. She then lifts her head up, looking at MALE FRIEND #1 and MALE FRIEND #2 outside a store, Male Friend #1 showing a pocket knife to Male Friend #2. Alicia eyes the blade, then she looks at her wrists which are bleeding. Alicia stares at the bleeding wrists for a moment, then they return to normal. Alicia turns and walks out of the store.
Int Bar-Day
On the TV in the upper corner, we see live footage of the school with the headline "School Under Attack:Ringver?" We see ANCHORWOMAN on the screen as well.
Anchorwoman
Police, school staff, administrators and students alike are shocked and overwhelmed by what has occured here today.
Eyewitness reports indicate this attacker, whom has been described as looking like somekind of robot, had been blwoing up cards
with yellow colored beams. He then proceeded to shoot down one Mark Riley, an 8th grade math teacher, as well as several police whom arrived on the scene, and finally blew up the ambulance Riley was being loaded in, killing him and at least four medics. The attacker made a short speech, identifying himself as "Ringver"
The bar is completely silent, everyone watching the TV.
Anchorwoman
Now over to Todd Berminham for Sports, Todd?
Ext Streets-Day
Rion is strolling through, seeing several cop cars parked while many more are driving through. PATROL OFFICER steps out in front of Rion.
Patrol Officer
Hey, we just got orders, everyone's to seek shelter immidiately.
Rion
For what?
Patrol Officer
For what, there was a terrorist attack at a school, where have you been?
Rion
Piss off, I can do what I want
Patrol Officer
Listen, I have an order from the mayor herself that no one is allowed out on a street we haven't finished looking in, so I have the power to take you down to the station if you don't cooraperate
Rion
Try me
Patrol Officer grabs Rion by the arm and walks him over to a car, opening the back door and shoving Rion in before closing it.
Int Police Car-Day
Rion sits there with a small chuckle, Patrol Officer seeing him through rearview.
Patrol Officer
Listen, none of us need this right now, so when you get there just keep your mouth shut!
Rion
So it is true, I thought my friends were lying when they said the school was attacked
Patrol Officer
Just shut up, I'm not in the mood to talk!
Rion
So, any idea who did it?
Patrol Officer
I told you to shut up back there!
Rion(with a more sinister tone)
How about Ringver shuts you up instead?
Patrol officer turns around.
Patrol officer
What did you say?
Rion transforms into Ringver Rion, pointing his blaster at Patrol Officer.
Ext Streets-Day
We see from the moving cop car a yellow beam fired through the winshield, then through the roof where Rion flies out into the sky, too high to be seen.
Ringver Rion(v.o)
That played out perfectly. Another lap dog drops dead under it's master's nose. Today was nothing, tomorrow I'll tear through the Police Station. I suppose I could've done that today, but there's always the chance one of them get's away and I don't want to blow my cover. Even if I don't kill each and every one of them, I'll leave them in such a heap they'll never recover, then after them the rest will be even easier
Ext Outside Video Store-Day
Alicia stands in front of the door with an expression of utter hopelessness. HURRYING MOTHER runs out with a DVD in her hadn, brushing past Alicia. Alicia turns around and let's out a scream at her, turning and walking away. She stops, Jeff walking down to just across from her. Jeff lifts his head up, looking at Alicia.
Jeff
Hey princess, where have you been?
Alicia
I'm not in the mood Jeff, go away
Alicia turns her back, Jeff walking closer.
Alicia
Jeff, if I ask you a question, will you promise to answer me seriously?
Jeff
Umm, sure. What's going on Alicia?
Alicia
If I died, do you think anyone would care?
Jeff laughs.
Jeff
C'mon Alicia, you think I believe you would-
A pocket knife hits the ground, Jeff's face now becoming solemn, Alicia crying heavily.
Jeff
Where did you get that Alicia?
Alicia just keeps crying. Jeff looks down, blood visible on the knife. Jeff runs out in front of Alicia, pulling her arms out, a cut on the side of her right wrist. Jeff stares in horror at the cut, then back at Alicia.
Jeff
Alicia, what happened, what made you, want to do this?
Alicia breaks out of Jeff's grip.
Alicia
You wouldn't understand Jeff
Jeff spins Alicia down, grabbing her by the arms.
Jeff
MAKE ME UNDERSTAND THEN!(brief pause, then a deep breath) Tell me then Alicia. Make me
understand, stop playing lone wolf Alicia, tell me why you want to do this!
Alicia
I've been wanting to do it since I was 14, with all my friends gone, and my parents mad at me, because I kept getting into fights. I didn't at first because I didn't want to be like my step brother
Jeff
You never told me you had a step brother
Alicia
He came when I was 7, beat the shit out of me for the next 6 years(sniffles) I never told because he threatened to kill me if I did. Then one
day he killed himself, right after beating me again. Even with him gone, I was still angry, still got into fights, and a year later I wanted to kill myself, because I drove away all my friends, but I held off because I didn't want to be like my step brother. Didn't matter, a few months later I tried but my parents stopped me. They took me back, but they sent me to Boot Camp instead of a Therapist or a nut house.
Jeff
Rion told me, he told me you went to Boot Camp and came back worse
Alicia
HE TOLD YOU! THAT SON OF A BITCH!(falls to her knees)You want to know, huh? The Boot Camp, it was the worst year of my life.
Cut to:
Int Camp Bedroom-Night
Alicia sits up in bed, INSTRUCTOR ONE, INSTRUCTOR TWO AND INSTRUCTOR THREE breaking in. Instructor one grabs her by the wrist to her feet, Alicia kicking him in the shin and grabbing him by the shin, Instructor Three grabbing her from behind, Alicia elbowing him in the face a few times before she's thrown to the ground. We see the instructors stomping and kicking before MICHELLE appears in the door way. Instructor Two pulls Alicia to her feet, Alicia battered and bleeding from the mouth.
Instructor Two
Bring her in here too
Michelle runs off, Instructor One and Three chasing after her. Instructor Two slams Alicia into the wall, Alicia collapsing to the floor face first. Instructor Two takes out a pair of cuffs, cuffing Alicia's right wrist to one of the legs of the bed. Instructor Two then stomps Alicia again, then runs out.
Alicia(v.o)
I never saw her again. She was one of the few friends I had made, and that was the last time I saw her. The only positive side was that I was alive, and apparently Michelle got far enough away, because somebody saw them kill her and reported it, which led them to find all the other girls they had killed or had killed themselves. The camp was shut down, and I was sent back home
Jeff
That's when you ran away from home, huh?
Alicia
I kept thinking about killing myself, I know I'm not going to get any better, only today when Rion....
Jeff
When Rion what? What?
Alicia
He made me feel bad, because I didn't want to play with him. I've had it Jeff, I can't take this anymore(sniffles again)
Int Fast Food Place-Day
Jeff is sitting across from Alicia at a table, Alicia's face mostly dry of tears.
Jeff
You need to go to a hospital or something. I know we haven't been best friends but, I can't let you kill yourself
Alicia
Why were you down at the video store anyway?
Jeff
I met this girl named Sandy, and she's inviting me to her friends house where she's staying, so I was going to rent a movie for us.
I probaly shouldn't leave you alone
Alicia
No, I don't want to ruin it for you
Jeff
Sandy will understand one night, besides it's really Trevor she wants to see anyway. You should go to a hopital
Alicia
No Jeff, I don't want to be locked up, please, no
Alicia sniffles, placing her head on her arms like a pillow on the table.
Jeff
Well what then Prin, Alicia. Wait, I think we might need some help on this
Int Movie Theater Lobby-Night
Trevor and Manka walk out of the theater together, holding hands.
Trevor
D-did you like the movie?
Manka
Very interesting, creating fictional characters to torture for entertainment rather then actual people
Trevor
Huh? W-W-What are y-you talking, talk, blah, talking about?
Manka
Nothing. So, where to now?
Trevor
W-we should go back
Manka looks over, seeing BOYFRIEND and GIRLFRIEND , Girlfriend giving Boyfriend a kiss before they walk out holding hands. Manka immidiately kisses Trevor by the cheek, Trevor looking flustered and surprised, Manka taking his hand and walking him out.
Manka
That's what I was supposed to do, right?
Trevor
Y-y-yeah, s-sure
They walk out the door.
Ext Outside Tent-Night
Trevor and Manka walk hand in hand, Jeff and Alicia standing just outside the tent. Trevor fearfully let's go, hiding behind Manka.
Jeff
This is the Manka girl I told you about
Alicia
Oh, hello Manka, I'm Alicia
Manka extends her hand, Alicia looks surprised, then shakes it quickly.
Manka
Where's Rion?
Jeff
Who the hell knows, look, we need to talk now, without Rion
Cut to:
Int Hotel Room-Night
Rion is laying on a bed, watching TV with a Pizza box next to him, opening it and taking out a slice of Pizza.
Rion
With this armor, I can take all the money I want to buy a house, I can rob banks, nah, I'll just take them from those lapdogs when I need to
Cut to:
Int Inside Tent-Night
Jeff, Alicia, Trevor and Manka are all sitting in a circle.
Jeff
That's the abridged version for the sake of Alicia, now we need to do something. because this isn't going to work. Rion's
just bringning in whoever he wants, going out and doing all this bullshit to get everyone in trouble, now he's trying to bully his
own cousin into "playing" with him.
Trevor
R-R-Rion, h-he did that?
Jeff
Yeah Trev, I'm sorry. I used to think Alicia was the problem, and she was part of it I won't deny that, but Rion's becoming an even bigger
problem. He's not even back yet, he brought Manka in but then just dumped her on us like a bag to carry. I think we should give Rion the boot.
There is a moment of heavy silence, Trevor looking troubled, Alicia gulping, Manka's expression remaining the same.
Jeff
Trevor, what do you think?
Trevor
I-I-I c-can't, please d-don't make me choose
Trevor chokes a few cries.
Jeff
Easy Trev, easy, you don't have to say anything. Alicia, what about you?
Alicia
Yes, please
Jeff
What about you Manka
Manka looks away.
Trevor
I-I-It's okay M-Manka
Manka
I apoligize, but I can not leave Rion
Jeff
Why not?
Manka remains silent. Jeff looks to Trevor, Trevor shaking his head.
Jeff
I already know why Trevor said no, why did you Manka?
Manka
Rion dosen't want me to tell you
Jeff
Rion isn't here now, is he?
Manka
I apoligize, I can not reveal my reason, if Rion finds out it will be disasterous
Jeff shakes his head.
Jeff
Tell you what, I'll drop it if you agree to stay with Alicia for the night. Don't let her do anything to hurt herself, don't let Rion bully her into anything,
can you do that?
Manka nods.
Jeff
C'mon Trev, you're expected
Trevor
Where?
Jeff
Come with me and you'll find out

Int Police Chief's Office-Night
Chief William sits at his desk frustrated. He has the radio on, when from outside SCREAMS are heard followed by GUNSHOTS and GROWLS. Chief Williams leaps out of his chair, the door opens, Virgil calmly walking in and closing the door behind him. Chief Williams pulls a gun out, pointing it at Virgil. Virgil steps forward, grabbing the gun and yanking it out of Chief William's hand. Virgil holds the gun to his head, firing it several times, Virgil's head snapping sideways every time, the bullets falling to the ground with Virgil's head unharmed. Virgil drops the gun to the ground.
Virgil
I tend to let my underlings carry out the violence for me, but if I'm pushed(tone becomes harsher) I can become very, very violent myself. You had better tell your guards to stop firing, or else my little friends out there will tear all of them apart
Chief runs out past Virgil. Tracker and Ripper are at the door way, several officers firing on them, the bullets having no effect.
Chief Williams
Cease fire! That's an order, cease fire! However take aim and be ready to fire on my orders!
Chief Williams turns to Virgil.
Virgil(tone returns to normal)
I can understand the first instinct to open fire on us, especially with the dilemnma you have on your hands. Speaking of, that's why I've come here, to kill Ringver
Chief Williams
We're supposed to just take your word for it?
Virgil
You people and your paranoia.What reason do I have to decieve you? We could easily lay waste to all of you right now, your bullets can't do anything to us. Once Ringver is disposed of, I'll leave, I have no reason to stay here
Chief Williams
Allright, let's say you ARE telling the truth. What do you get out of this?
Virgil
That's nothing you need to be made aware of. All you need to know is to stay away from Ringver, you'll do nothing but die to his feet. I'll eliminate him
Chief Williams
Are you-
Virgil
The choice is either stay out of the way, or we kill you all, is that clear?
Chief Williams
Oh, and what are we supposed to tell the people? The goverment?
Virgil
Continue under the rouge of actually still handiling the situation. Now of course if Ringver attacks you again, you are free to strike back, however futile an attempt may be. That is all. Ripper, Tracker, let's go
Virgil walks over to Ripper and Tracker, the three dissolving into black dust and vanishing.
Officer Extra(offscreen)
What do we do sir?
Chief William's cell phone rings, Chief Williams runs into his office, picking it up off his desk and answering it.
Chief Williams
Hello?
Unknown Goverment Official(from phone)
We're sending people down tomorrow morning, get ready for an ambush
Chief Williams
Who is this?
Unknown Goverment Official(from phone)
I can't discuss my identity, however if you need proof I'm with the Federal Goverment, I can fax it to you, now listen. We're mandating many news stations to run a story about your birthday being tomorrow, and since Ringver's main targets seem to be police, he'll come to crash the party, and that's when we'll nail him.
Int Hotel Room-Night
Rion is channel surfing, stopping on the news. Rion looks at the screen with the headline "Police Chief Morgan William's 50th birthday celebrated tomorrow"
Rion
Killing the chief of police and all his men on his birthday, that'll be PERFECT.
Int Jillian's House-Night
Jeff and Trevor are standing at the door, Sandy walking up and opening it, letting them in.
Sandy
Hey Jeff, nice to see you. Trevor, good to see you(kisses Trevor on the cheek)
Jeff
So, where's your friend Sandy?
Sandy
Jillian's upstairs, now c'mon you two, don't keep us waiting
Trevor
N-no, I don't feel right with this
Jeff
Relax Trev, we're just going to watch TV or something
Int Tent-Night
Alicia sighed, laying back.
Alicia
I actually feel a little better already, you know?
Manka remains silent, Alicia looking up at her.
Alicia
So, where are you from?
Manka
I apoligize, I can't tell you that either
Alicia
Aw c'mon, you can't have been any worse then us
Manka stays silent.
Alicia
C'mon, their must be something you want to talk about
Manka
No, there isn't
Alicia
What about Trevor? You and him look to be an item
Manka
Pardon?
Alicia
Oh c'mon, don't deny it. I've been trying to seduce him myself, just because he's a pushover. I never did it that many times, and I always figured
it would never work.
Manka turns her head away.
Ext Outside Julian's House-Day
Jeff and Trevor are outside the house together.

Trevor nods.

SNIPER ONE, SNIPER TWO, SNIPER THREE, and SNIPER FOUR are all positioned at windows throughout the building in various rooms.

Ext Side of Hotel Building-Day
Rion looks around, no one else is seen. Rion's Ringver armor then comes on.
Ringver Rion
I've been waiting for this for a long time
Cut to:
Ext Outside Police Station-Day
Chief Williams is standing just outside the doors with GUARD ONE and GUARD TWO. Williams stares out at the sky along with the guards. We see SNIPER FIVE and SNIPER SIX positioned on each side of the building with a rocket launcher. Chief Williams gives a quivering sigh, sitting anxiously. Guard One pats him on the back.
Chief Williams
I hope to God this works, otherwise that son of a bitch is gonna kill us all
Guard Two
Hey, no matter what, no one's going to let anything happen to you. You've done too much for this town.
Guard Two and Chief Williams exchange a quick hug, Chief Williams letting out a sigh.
Chief Williams
No civilians are going to be hurt right?
Guard Two
Civilians around this area have been told to stay indoors
Guard One
Is he even coming?(looks up and sees Rion)There he is, there he is!
Rion flies towards the station. Sniper Five takes out a communicator.
Sniper Five
Target is here, I repeat the target is here, prepare to fire
Rion looks at Chief Williams, staring at him from mid air. Sniper Five aims his Rocket Launcher. Rion aims his blaster at Chief Williams.
Rion
Happy Birthday
Sniper Five fires, Rion looking over before gettin | | |
