FADE IN:

INT. LABRATORY - DAY
                                                            
Images of the doctors working inside the labratory appear on
screen, then suddenly there is an explosion and a fire with
in the labratory. The doctors run about, trying to put the
fire out and save themselves.
                                                            
                       NARRATOR (VO)
In the town of North Folk Virgina
a terrible accident occurred. A
government research facility in
the town released a devastating
virus on the unsuspecting town of
about 10,000 residents. The
affects of which, even the
government could not predict. The
town was immediately cornered off
and placed under quarentine.
Nothing and no one gets in or out
of the town. What was once a sunny
slice of heaven, is now a dark
vision of hell.
                                                            
Images of the town before appear in the screen and soon
after turn to images of the town after as a dark and
desserted place.
                                                            
                       NARRATOR (VO)
There were survivors of this
deadly and horrific accident. But
they were trapped behind the great
barrior that was errected to keep
what is inside from getting out.
The rest of the residents were not
as fortunate, they surcame to the
effects of the virus and became
something other then human. The
government needed to get the
survivors out but who would be
brave enough and strong enough to
go in and get them out? They
needed the best of the best, so
they called upon Miles Logan, code
named Raven. He was part of an
elite special force team, code
named Birds of Prey.
                                                            
A white cloudy barrior is shown surrounding the small town.
Images of human like creatures are shown but not revealed. A

2.

short dark haired man is shown going through military style
training. Images of the man fighting and defeating several
soldiers hand to hand fill the screen. Images of the man
fire several types of weapons at targets nearby are shown.
                                                            
                       NARRATOR
Raven was the best of the best,
the toughest, fastest and
strongest they had to offer. He
was part of a super soldier
experiment, that turned him from
an ordinary human, into a living
weapon. The only man who stood any
chance of coming out alive. One
man against an entire town, one
man stands alone against the
unknown. Mankinds first, last and
only hope for survival.
                                                            
 
EXT. OUTSIDE THE TOWN - DAY
                                                            
An army of soldiers with guns, tanks and helicopters, are
positioned outside the cloudy white barrior that surrounds
the town. A black hawk helicopter approaches the army and
lands a few feet away. A short man, dressed in a black
combat style uniform gets out of the helicopter. The man is
very heavily armed and walks up to another man in a green
uniform.
                                                            
                       GENERAL
Hello Raven, glad to see you were
able to make it.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
      (WALKS UP)
Wells it's not everyday that I get
to go up against a town full of
mutated and disfigured people, to
rescue a group of survivors.
                                                            
                       GENERAL
I assume you have all ready been
briefed on the situation?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Yeah basically a horrible accident
turn even in the town into
mutants.
                                                            
                       GENERAL
Yes but it is much more than that.
The virus that has infected these
is highly contagious. If it if it

                       GENERAL (cont'd)
goes beyond this small town, it
would spread and destroy mankind
as we know it. In four hours this
town and everyone in it will be
destroyed, as to prevent any
further exposure of the virus to
the rest of the population.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
So I Have four hours to get the
survivors out, before this place
is turned into a parking lot. How
do I know they are not infected
themselves?
                                                            
                       GENERAL
Well doctor Levry and his team
have developed an inoculation
against the virus, to prevent
someone who wasn't infected from
becoming infected. We need that
vaccine, to prevent this thing
from spreading. That is your first
objective, to retrieve a sample of
the vaccine. Second to rescue any
survivors that have not yet been
infected. we assume because of
your genetic alterations that you
are immune to the effects of the
virus. Remember Raven, we need a
sample of that vaccine at all
costs.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Understood sir, is there anything
else?
                                                            
                       GENERAL
The labratory is loacted in the
North East side of town,
underneath a Estate called Grey
Stoke. The mansion has the under
the ground facility where the
research was conducted under it.
It's the same place where the
survivors are hold up. We know
this because we recieved a
communication from them, stating
that they locked themselves inside
the lab for protection and needed
assistance ASAP. Shortly there
after the comm. went down and we
lost contact with them. You are to
            (MORE)

                       GENERAL (cont'd)
make you way to the lab. Remember
RAVEN, these things are no longer
human, you are to treat them as
hostile enemies and do what ever
is nessassary to complete the
mission.
                                                            
Raven begins to slowly walk toward the White Cloudy barrior
with his weapon in hand, as the soldiers just watch him. As
he approaches the barrior he stops, takes a deep breaths,
looks back at the world behind him and then walks through
the barrior and enters the town.
                                                            
 
EXT. FRONT OF TOWN - DAY
                                                            
Raven walks through the barrior and enters the town. He
looks back but can only see the white barrior behind him. He
looks around at his surroundings and finds over turned cars,
broken store windows, bodies lying on the streets, smoke
from the fires fill the air, car alarms are sounding, but
there is no one in sight. So he slowly makes his way forward
down the street, deeper into the town.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
      (STOPS, LEANS DOWN)
Huh dead, what the hell happened
here? General are you there? I'm
inside the town now.
                                                            
Raven checks another body for a pulse but it has none. So he
uses his comm. system to contact General Hopkins.
                                                            
                       GENERAL (VO)
I'm here Raven, what's going?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
It's a mess General, Bodies of
innocent people lying dead in the
streets, this place looks like it
was in total chaos. Like some of
the towns people weren't infected
or didn't turn into mutants as
fast and tried to fight back but
by the looks of it, they didn't
have much success.
                                                            
                       GENERAL (VO)
Where are you? What part of town
are you in?
                                                            

5.

                       RAVEN
I'm still in the front of town,
I'm going to try and make my way
North East, to Grey Stoke.
                                                            
                       GENERAL (VO)
Excellent Raven, just be carefull,
remember these people are no
longer human, treat them all as
hostiles. Don't forget you only
have about three hours and fifty
minutes left now. Sync your watch
and good hunting to you, keep me
informed.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Copy that General, over and out.
                                                            
The wind begins to pick up and blow throughout the town.
Raven is slightly over come by the intense smell of burnt
rioting flesh. He begins to slowly move throughout the town,
again very caustously. He passes a barber shop, A mom and
pop store and a diner. As he passes the diner, he hears the
sound of glass breaking, coming from inside the diner. He is
drawn to the sound and proceeds to investagate.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
It looks like things are about to
get a hell of alot more
interesting around here.
                                                            
Raven cocks his gun back, which has a grenade laungher
attached to the bottom of the guns barrel. He proceeds to
move slowly toward the diner, he is ready to shot anything
that moves. He stands against the all next to the door. He
peeks inside but sees nothing. So he jumps out infront of
the door with his gun pointed at the door. He looks through
the glass to see if anything or anyone moves. Nothing does
so he enters carefully.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Who ever you are, you can come out
now, I know you're here. I won't
hurt you, I just want to talk to
you.
                                                            
He moves slowly through the diner searching it the whole
way, but he finds nothing. He stops for a moment and takes a
look around, then he proceeds to move toward the counter.
All the while as he does this, he has his gun pointed and at
the ready. He stops in front of the counter and thinks for a
moment, then he walks behind the counter and stops in front

6.

of a cabinet located under the counter. He points his gun
down at the cabinet doors and then uses his right hand to
open them. A fair skinned red headed woman jumps out and
dashes for the door.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Wait! Wait Miss.! I'm here to
help! The government sent me!
                                                            
Just as she is about to open the door and run out she stops
short.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Who sent you?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
General Robert Hopkins, they want
me to get you and the rest of your
team out of here. Dr. Archer I
presume.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
How do you know my name?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
I was given photos and
discriptions of all of you, please
step away from the door and sit
down.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
All right,
      (SHE SITS DOWN)
Ok so you know my name, but you
haven't told me who you are?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
My name is Raven, I'm here to help
you. Where is the rest of your
team? I thought you were all
trapped inside the lab?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
They are....
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Then how come you are not?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Because shortly after the
accident, I left to try and find
help. But I couldn't find help.
This town was in chaos, not
everyone was infected right away

                       MELISSA (cont'd)
and they tried to fin off the
mutants but there were so many of
them. They were brutually killed,
some even eaten alive. It was
unlike anything I have ever seen
before. By the time I reached the
front of town, the great barrior
had all ready been set up. So I
had no choice but to go into
hiding, where I've been ever
since.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
In here, the diner?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Yes, in here, all of the towns
people are scattered throughout
the town. Just wondering around
aimlessly.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
What the hell happened here? This
town is, I've never even seen
anything like this before and I've
been in combat.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
It was a tragic accident, we never
ment for this to happen.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Ment for what to happen? What did
you do to these poor inncent
poeple?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
We were trying to do good but it
ended up backfiring on us, like we
never could have imagined.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Some of the worlds greatest
tragidies were committed by men
and women with good intensions,
you are no different.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
That's not true, we were trying to
do good, trying to save man kind.
It just was a terrible accident,
no one could have forseen or
predicted this out come.
                                                            

8.

                       RAVEN
What exactly were you guys doing
here anyway? How were you trying
to save mankind?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
A few years ago there was an
asteriod that was passing through
our solar system. It unexpectedly
hit Earth, mainly impacted in this
area, near the town. Our team
collected samples of the space
debris and studied them. We came
to find out that the debris
containted a virus, a deadly virus
from deep with in outer space.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Ok so those rocks that hit earth
were carrying some kind of deadly
virus in them. What exactly is the
virus?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
It was much more then just some
rocks from space, it was space
debris, depris from planets and
parts of the universe unkown. The
virus had the potential to destroy
every living thing on Earth. It
was unlike anything we had ever
seen before. It is even worse the
Ebola. So we began to do research,
in hopes to trying to find a cure
or at least find out what region
of space it came from. But we were
unsuccessful at that task. So we
began trying to find a cure and
focused out efforts solely on
that. We tried to predict it's
affects on the human body.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
So what went wrong?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
We tried to determine if any,
symptoms the infected might
exibit, the course the virus would
take before the final result of
death that would ultimately occur.
But we discovered something much
more devastating. Once the virus
            (MORE)

                       MELISSA (cont'd)
infects a subject, it begins to
mutate and change the subjects
genes, DNA, it's cellular
structure and even it's anatomy.
It turns an oridinary human being
into those things out there. We
have never seen anything like it
before. It spreads so rapidly,
with out remorse and with such a
vengence.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Ok, if you guys knew how
devastating this thing was, how
could you have allowed it to
infect so many people?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Well we developed a vaccine to
prevent someone from becoming
infected with the virus. But once
someone is infected, we can not do
anything for them. There was an
explosion, one of our power
generators over loaded, releasing
the virus into the air and
spreading it through out the town.
Once the towns people were infect
we could not do anything for them.
So we gave the vaccine to
ourselves and sent out a distress
signal, in hopes someone would
come to rescue us. But we did not
predict the extent of the effects.
We knew they would mutate but we
didn't know what they would mutate
into, that is until now.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
No of course not, at any rate I
still have a mission to complete
and i will complete my mission. No
one will stop me, I don't care if
there are ten mutants or ten
thousand in my way, just more of
them to kill.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
And just hhow do you plan on
defeating an army of Mutants, you
are only one man? One man against
small army.
                                                            

10.

                       RAVEN
Yeah but I'm not just any man, I'm
thee man. Are you familar with the
Birds of Prey Project?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Yes a group of soldiers were
chosen to participate in a genetic
experiment that would turn them
into super soldiers. You were part
of that group?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Yeah I was part of that elite
group. Only I was the only one
they turned into a living weapon,
the next generation of soldier.
For reason unknown to me, they
others weren't experimented on. I
guess they need a test subject
first, to see if it would work.
I'm the only man on this planet
who stands a chance of completing
this mission. We've just ran out
of time, we have been spotted.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
What do you mean spotted? By who?
There's no one out there.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Over there look to you left,
behind the dumpster. There is
someone there, who ever it is has
seen us and theres about five more
heading this way. We need to get
out of here now.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
      (Looks out the
       window)
And go where? We're trapped inside
this hell, incase you've
forgotten.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
To Grey Stoke, we have to get into
that lab and get that vaccine or
die trying.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
You will never make it there
alive, there's ten thousand
            (MORE)

11.

                       MELISSA (cont'd)
mutants that have other plans. Not
even you can stop a small army
alone.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
The hell I won't, I'm going to
draw them away from here, you go
and find another place to hide.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
No, out of the question, I'm
coming with you.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
You can't, I can make it, we
can't. You need to find somewhere
else to hide and wait for me there
until I return.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
And what happens if you don't
return? Huh? what then Raven?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
It won't matter anyway, this whole
place will be a parking lot in
less then four hours.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
You'll never make it because you
don't know your way around this
town but I do. I can get you to
Grey Stoke. I know ever street,
back ally and short cut.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
So just tell me the quickiest way
to Grey Stoke and let me be on my
way.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
I can't do that, what happens if
you take a wrong turn and get lost
or side tracked? what then? I can
get you there, just take me with
you.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
No way, you have to tell me how to
get there or I'll just figure it
out myself but either way we don't
have time for this. Those things
out there are getting closer,
            (MORE)

12.

                       RAVEN (cont'd)
they're closing in on us fast. We
need to go and now.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Then take me with you, you don't
have time to argue with me Raven.
Take me with you.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Damn, all right, come on, but you
listen to what ever I say and do
exactly as I tell you. Stay back
while I distract them. Once their
attention is on me, you just run
like hell, I'll be right behind
you.
                                                            
 
EXT. FRONT OF THE DINER (STREET) - DAY
                                                            
Raven and Melissa walk out of the diner and onto the street,
where four mutants await them. They take notice of Raven and
Melissa, they begin to move closer to them.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
      (Pushes her Behind
       him)
Just stay behind me, this is my
time now.
                                                            
Raven steps out in front of Melissa to draw their attention,
it works and they converge on him. One of them takes the led
and comes toward Raven, who punches him in the face. He is
slightly taken back by the blow but just grawls at Raven and
takes a swing at him. Raven ducks, punches the mutant in his
stomache, knees him in the face and then gives him an upper
cut to the face. The mutant is sent flying into the air and
lands several feet away.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Raven! Behind you!
                                                            
Raven turns around and grabs a mutant who tried to sneak up
on him. He flings the mutant into the air and through the
diner window. The other two mutants begin to rush Raven, who
pulls two guns from behind his back and begins firing at the
two mutants. He fires several rounds at them and they are
struck a number of times in the chest and face, before they
eventually go down.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Run! Go now!
                                                            

13.

Melissa and Raven begin to run in the other direction,
looking behind them the whole time. But as they fled, they
did not notice a figure hiding in the shadows watching the
entire fight unfold. After they are gone the figure leaves
in their direction.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
      (Stops running)
Ok, stop now, I think we lost
them.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
      (Stops running)
Were we followed?
      (Slightly out of
       breathe)
                                                            
                       RAVEN
      (SLIGHTLY OUT OF
       BREATH)
No I don't think so, those things
are tougher then I thought.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
They have strength several times
that of a normal man. But their
mind is that of a child. What do
we do now?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
We keep going we have less then
four hours remaining to complete
the mission. So how do we get Grey
Stoke?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Well the main streets will be
crowded with mutants. We will have
to avoid them when ever possible
and take the back roads and
ally's. From here we can take
Allister Ave. to Holt Street.
Allister isn't a heavily traveled
street, we shoudln't encounter
alot of mutants that way.
                                                            
 
EXT. ALLISTER AVE. - DAY
                                                            
Raven and Melissa continue on by way of Allister Ave. The
two slowly and caustiuosly walk down the seemingly desserted
street. They now only have three hours and twenty minutes
left to go.
                                                            

14.

                       RAVEN
      (Walks down the
       street)
This is like someting right out of
a bad horror movie. The smell of
roittng flesh, the bodies, this
place is like hell on Earth.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Yes it is, but it'll be a thousand
times worse if that virus makes it
beyond this town and spreads.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
What the hell did you guys do to
those people?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
We didn't do anything, we tried to
help man kind, not destroy it.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Yeah right, you've done such a
bang up job at that. But something
just dosn't add up about this
whole thing.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Oh really Raven, well if you would
be so kind as to enlighten me as
to what that brain of yours has
cooked up.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Why the hell would there be a
geovernment lab containing a
deadly virus in a town full of
thousands of innocent people?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
We were studying the virus, the
soil and asteriod debris.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Ok but don't tell me you couldn't
do that twelve miles from here,
out side of the town, you know a
safe distance away. So that maybe
and jusy maybe these people would
have had a chance.
                                                            

15.

                       MELISSA
We factored possibilities,
scenarios and variables and we
thought we had prepared for all
them. I don't understand why this
happened.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
You guys don't even know where
this virus came from, other than
the fact that it was carried here
by space debris from somewhere in
the universe. Apparently you did
not account for everything.
                                                            
As Raven and Melissa walk down the street, a little girl
appears in front of them and just stands there, looking at
them with a blank look on here face.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Wait, look at what is standing in
front of us.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
It's a little girl, she looks
lost. She is probably scared and
lonely, we have to help her.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
      (Stops her)
No, Wait....
                                                            
                       MELISSA
What?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
She could be infected too even
though she dosn't look like it.
She might be dangerous.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Dangerous? She's a little girl,
how dangerous can she be. Suppose
she is not infected, what if
somehow she escaoed infection.
Then what? What are you going to
do? Shoot her too?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
All right, but be carefull, I'll
be right behind you, just in case.
                                                            

16.

Melissa walks over to the little girl, who gives her a white
flower. Melissa takes the flower from the little girl and is
about to take her hand, when the little girl lunges forward
forward and bites Melissa on the shoulder. Melissa screams
from the pain of being bitten.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
      (In pain and upset)
Ah!! Shit, she bit me, you bit me.
                                                            
The little girl just smiles at her and then starts to grawl,
Raven pulls out his gun and shots the little girl in the
shoulder. The girl falls back to the ground. She then picks
her head up, grawls at Melissa and Raven like a blood
thirsty animal, then leaps forward into the air toward
Melissa. Raven shots her again several times in her chest.
The girl falls backward to the ground and begins to twitch.
Raven walks up to her, looks down at her with an icy stone
cold glare and then shots her in the head, killing her.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Next time you might want to take
my advice. Are you ok?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Yes, I'm fine, it's not deep, it's
just a flesh wound but it sure did
hurt like hell.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
      (Reaches for his
       gun)
Are you infected now too?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
No, so you can put your gun away,
the virus is an air bourne
pathogen and not a blood bourne
pathogen. So you can't contract it
from bitting or from someones
elses blood.
                                                            
Raven patches her up with some bandages from his small
med-kit.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
There that should do it, looks
like you're not a bleeder. Those
were my last bandages, so try not
to hurt yourself again. We need to
get going, we only have about
three hours left now.
                                                            

17.

                       MELISSA
We'll make it, it's not much
further from here. Don't worry, I
promised I would get you to Grey
Stoke and I will do just that.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Good, because I have every
intention of making it out of this
hell whole alive and well.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
May I ask you something Raven?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Shot but let's keep moving ok, we
don't have much time left to get
side tracked.
                                                            
They both begin to walk down the street again, side by side
with one another.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
What made you want to get into
this? By that I mean what made you
want to volunteer for the program?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
It's the only thing that gives my
life meaning. I grew up in an
orphanage, never knowing who my
birth parents were or where I came
from. I was taken in by a good
family in my teens but it just
wasn't the same. I guess doing
this gives me some sense of
belonging, being apart of
something bigger then yourself. It
gives my life meaning.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
You don't feel guilt or remorse
about killing people? You don't
have a conscience about what you
do?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
No, I don't have a conscience or
remorse, I can't, I'm a soldier.
My job is to do what must be done
and not question whether it is
right or wrong, those questions
are left to be answered by greater
            (MORE)

18.

                       RAVEN (cont'd)
men then me. I can't feel, I must
be numb. Huh it's funny you should
ask me that because I could say
the same thing about you?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
I feel remorse for my role in this
tragedy. But I tell myself that we
were trying to do good. You must
live a lonely life. You don't ever
want to fall in love? To have a
family of your own?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
I can't have a wife and kids, I'm
not a normal man, I don't have a
normal nine to five job and a
normal life. My enemies would only
use that against me, for me love
is a weakness that I can't afford
to have.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Love shouldn't be viewed as a
weakness but as a gift. You view
the world with such a cold and
calculating view but you fail to
realize that theres much more to
it. Not everything is black and
white.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Maybe for someone like you, but
not for me. I live by my own set
of rules, in my own world, apart
from yours. I knew the risks and
what I would be giving up, when I
signed on the dotted line. Look
we're coming up on an
intersection, which way?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Ok, this is Ramona Blvd, if we
take Ramona it will led us to
Tracy street and from there we can
take Tracy street to Grey Stoke.
But both streets are major
streets, we will probably run into
trouble.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
What are our other options?
                                                            

19.

                       MELISSA
Well we can take Ramona to Arrow
Highway, from there we can take
Breeze Ave. to Grey Stoke. It's a
longer trip but it's a safer one
too.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
All right, let's do that but we
need to find some form of
transportation, like a car or
truck that runs. Because at this
rate we'll never make it on time.
Let's keep going and see what we
can find.
                                                            
They both continue down Ramona Blvd together side by side
but still remain very caustious and aware of their
surroundings.
                                                            
 
EXT. RAMONA BLVD - DAY
                                                            
Raven and Melissa spot a jeep nearby that looks like it's in
good condition. So they both go over to it and Raven tries
to get it started.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Damn this one is broken down too.
I can't get it started. You
wouldn't happen to be a mechanic
would you?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
No, not really, I thought you were
a super soldier, you can face
impossible odds, ten thousands
blood thristy mutants but you
can't hot wire a car?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
I'm sorry I didn't pay much
attention in mechanic school, I
was to busy learning how to fire a
gun, hand to hand combat, you
things like that. We weren't
exactly taught how to hot wire a
jeep wrangler. Wait...do you hear
that?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Hear what?
                                                            

20.

                       RAVEN
That, that noise, it's like a
thumping sound.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
I do now but I can't tell where
it's coming from though.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
I don't know either but it sounds
like it's coming from just beyond
the horizon and it's getting
closer. Come on, let's hide in the
barber shop, to be on the safe
side. I don't like the way this
feels.
                                                            
RAVEN AND MELISSA RUN INTO THE NEAR BY BARBER SHOP AND DUCK
DOWN. THE NOISE GETS LOUDER AND CLOSER MINUTE BY MINUTE. AS
IT DOES SEVERAL FIGURES BECOME VISABLE ON THE HORIZON, UNTIL
THEY ARE DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF THE BARBER SHOP. IT'S A GROUP
OF MUTANTS WALKING DOWN THE STREET. THEY STOP IN FRONT OF
THE BARBER SHOP, LOOK AROUND AND CONTINUE ON. WHEN THEY ARE
GONE RAVEN AND MELISSA COME OUT.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
WHAT WAS THAT?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
IT WAS A GROUP OF MUTANTS,
TRAVELING TOGETHER
                                                            
                       MELISSA
A GROUP OF MUTANTS? FROM WHAT WE
KNOW THEY DON'T TRAVEL IN PAKS.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
THAT WASN;T A PAK, IT WAS A SEARCH
PARTY. THEY WERE LOOKING FOR
SOMETHING OR SOMEONE.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
US? WERE THEY LOOKING FOR US?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
MAYBE BUT WHAT I DON'T UNDERSTAND
IS HOW THEY ORGANIZED A GROUP FOR
A PURPOSE. I THOUGHT YOU SAID THEY
WERE MINDLESS CREATURES, NOT
CAPABLE OF INDEPENDENT THOUGHT.
                                                            

21.

                       MELISSA
THERE NOT OR AT LEAST THEY
WEREN'T, MAYBE THEY'RE EVOLVING
SOME HOW OR BEING CONTROLED.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
EVOLVED HOW? BEING CONTROLED HOW
BY WHO?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
I DON'T KNOW? I DON'T HAVE ALL THE
ANSWERS.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
THERE'S ALOT YOU DON'T KNOW, ALOT
OF QUESTIONS YOU DON'T HAVE THE
ANSWERS TO. THAT'S PRETTY DAMN
CONVIENT DON'T YOU THINK.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO SAY, THAT I
KNOW MORE THAN I'M SAYING. WHY,
WHY WOULD I HOLD BACK, MY LIFE IF
ON THE LINE HERE TO, JUST LIKE
YOURS.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
NO MATTER, WHAT I THINK DOSN'T
MATTER RIGHT NOW. I HAVE A MISSION
TO COMPLETE AND MAKE NO MISTAKE
ABOUT IT, I WILL COMPLETE MY
MISSION. NO ONE AND NO AMRY IS
GOING TO STOP ME.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
GOOD, THAT MAKES TWO OF US, WHAT
ABOUT THE JEEP?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
WELL I THINK I CAN GET IT, I JUST
NEED A MOMENT, STAND BACK.
                                                            
MELISSA STANDS BACK A FEW FEET AS RAVEN TRIES TO FIX THE
JEEP. HE POPS OPEN THE HOOD AND BEGINS REPAIRING IT. MOMENTS
LATER THE JEEP STARTS.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
THEY'RE YOU GO, I GUESS THEY DID
TEACH US HOW TO HOT WIRE A JEEP.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
LOOKS LIKE IT, WELL ARE WE GOING
TO GET GOING OR WHAT?
                                                            

22.

                       RAVEN
HOP IN, LET'S GET THIS SHOW ON THE
ROAD.
                                                            
MELISSA JUMPS INTO THE JEEP AND THE TWO DRIVE OFF DOWN
RAMONA AVE.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
BE ON THE LOOK OUT FOR ANY OF OUR
FRIENDS, I DON'T WANT ANY
SURPRISES.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
I UNDERSTAND, DO YOU REALLY THINK
YOU CAN PULL THIS OFF?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
YEAH I DO, IT'S MY JOB, IT'S WHAT
I'M GOOD AT.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
YOU MAY BE GOOD AT IT BUT IT'S NO
LIFE TO LIVE. ALL WAYS ON THE RUN,
ALL WAYS ALONE. NEVER ALLOWING
YOURSELF TO GET CLOSE TO ANYONE.
HOW CAN YOU BE HAPPY WITH A LIFE
LIKE THAT?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
IT'S THE ONLY LIFE I'VE EVER
KNOWN. I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHO MY
PARENTS ARE. I WILL ALL WAYS
WONDER WHY THEY GAVE ME UP, DID
THEY NOT WANT ME, WHAT WAS WRONG
WITH ME? WHY DIDN'T THEY LOVE ME?
HOW WOULD MY LIFE BE DIFFERENT IF
THEY HAD KEPT ME?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
YOU MAY WONDER THOSE THINGS BUT
HAVEN'T YOU EVER WANT TO FIND OUT
FOR SURE? TO FINALLY HAVE THE
ANSWERS YOU SEEK?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
EVERY DAY OF MY LIFE BUT I CAN'T
LOOK BACK, I CAN'T FEEL. TO MANY
PEOPLE COUNT ON ME AND IF I START
TO FEEL AND THINK OF MY SELF, IT
WILL COMPROMISE MY JOB. I CAN'T
LET THAT HAPPEN.
                                                            

23.

                       MELISSA
SO YOU SACRIFICE YOU OWN FEELINGS
AND WELL BEING TO HELP OTHERS?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
I GUESS YOU COULD SAY THAT.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
DON'T YOU EVER WANT TO SAY HEY
I'VE DONE MY PART FOR THE WORLD,
NOW IT'S TIME FOR ME.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
I KNEW THE TERMS WHEN I SIGNED UP
FOR THE JOB. ONCE YOU IN, YOUR IN,
THERE'S NO TURNING BACK NOW. LOOK
AHEAD, IT'S BLOCKED.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
IT'S A ROAD BLOCK, A DETOUR, IT
SAYS TO TAKE HOLT AVE. AS THE
DETOUR. IF WE TAKE HOLT IT WOULD
ADD SEVERAL MINUTES TO OUR TRIP
AND BE A LITTLE MORE RISKY BUT
WHAT CHOICE TO WE HAVE?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
WE DON'T HAVE ONE, WE WILL JUST
HAVE TO GO ALONG WITH IT.
                                                            
RAVEN TURNS THE JEEP AROUND AND TAKES THE DETOUR TO HOLT
AVE.
                                                            
 
EXT. HOLT AVE. - DAY
                                                            
                       MELISSA
HUH?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
WHAT?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
I'M SURE IT'S NOTHING BUT I DON'T
REMEMBER THERE BEING A DETOUR
THERE BEFORE.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
THAT WASN'T THERE YESTERDAY, OR AT
LEAST I DON'T THINK IT WAS.
                                                            

24.

                       RAVEN
MAYBE WE SHOULD TURN AROUND AND
FIND ANOTHER WAY?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
I THINK WE SHOULD, I'VE GOT A BAD
FEELING ABOUT THIS.
                                                            
AS RAVEN PROCEEDS TO TURN THE JEEPS AROUND, HE DISCOVERS THE
ROAD AHEAD IS ALSO BLOCKED.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
LOOK ANOTHER DETOUR AHEAD.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
THAT'S NOT POSSIBLE, TWO DETOURS
AND ONE STREET IS THE DETOUR FOR
THE OTHER AND NOW IT'S A DETOUR
TOO.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
IT'S A TRAP! WE DROVE RIGHT INTO A
TRAP!
                                                            
RAVEN STOPS THE JEEP AND TURNS AROUND BUT IT'S TOO LATE.
SLOWLY DOZENS OF MUTANTS BEGIN SURROUNDING RAVEN AND
MELISSA. THEY HAVE ALL SO PUT SEVERAL OBSTICLES IN THERE
WAY.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
OH MY GOD, THEY SET A TRAP.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
THAT'S THE LEAST OF OUR WORRIES
RIGHT NOW, WE NEED TO FIGURE OUT A
WAY TO GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE,
ANY IDEAS?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
NO, NOTHING COMES TO MIND.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
WELL THERE'S ONLY ONE THING LEFT
TO DO. WE MOW RIGHT THROUGH, RIGHT
DOWN THEIR THROATS. HERE TAKE
THIS..
      (HANDS HER A GUN)
THIS IS AN SEMI AUTOMATIC GUN. I'M
GOING TO NEED YOUR HELP.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
I'VE NEVER SHOT A GUN BEFORE.
                                                            

25.

                       RAVEN
ALL YOU DO IS POINT AND PRESS THE
TRIGGER, NOTHING TO IT. ARE YOU
READY?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
YES I'M READY I GUESS.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
HANG ON..!
                                                            
RAVEN PRESS DOWN ON THE GAS PEDAL AND THE JEEP TAKES OFF. HE
MOWS DOWN A FEW MUTANTS THAT WERE INFRONT OF THE JEEP. THEY
BEGIN TO THROW ROCKS AND STONES AT THE JEEP. RAVEN AND
MELISSA ARE DODGING THEM. AS HE DRIVES THE JEEP WITH ONE
HAND, HE IS FIRING HIS GUN WITH THE OTHER. SHOOTING ANY
MUTANTS THAT GET IN THERE WAY.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
LOOK THEY'VE BLOCKED THE ROAD!
                                                            
                       RAVEN
NOT FOR LONG!
                                                            
RAVEN MAKES A HARD RIGHT TURN, STOPS THE JEEP AND LAYS INTO
A GROUP OF MUTANTS AHEAD WITH HIS RIFLE. ONE BY ONE THEY ARE
KILLED BUT THERE STILL IS THE LINE OF OVER TURNED CARS
BLOCKING HIS PATH. BEHIND THEM ARE MORE MUTANTS CLOSING IN
ON THEM.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
THERE COMING FROM BEHIND US TOO!
                                                            
                       RAVEN
SHOT'EM MELISSA!
                                                            
MELISSA RAISES HER WEAPON AND BEGINS TO FIRE AT THE MUTANTS
COMING BEHIND THEM. HER AIM IS NOT THAT GOOD, SO ONLY A FEW
ARE KILLED, THE REST STILL BEGIN TO CLOSE ON THEM.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
SHIT! THERE'S JUST TO MANY OF
THEM!
                                                            
                       RAVEN
YOUR RIGHT! I HAVE AN IDEA!
                                                            
                       MELISSA
AH!!!!!
                                                            
MELISSA SCREAMS AS A MUTANT SNUCK UP ON HER AND GRABED HER.
HE IS TRYING TO PULL HER OUT OF THE JEEP. RAVEN NOTICES AND

26.

SHOTS THE MUTANT IN THE HEAD. THEY ARE NOW CLOSE ENOUGH TO
THE JEEP TO THREATEN THEM. RAVEN HOPS OUT OF THE JEEP AND
BEGINS TO FIGHT THEM HAND TO HAND. SEVERAL DOZEN MUTANTS
CONVERGE ON HIM BUT HE IS ABLE TO KILL ALL OF THEM WITH HIS
KNIVES IN HAND.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
RAVEN! HURRY!
                                                            
                       RAVEN
GO! I'LL CATCH UP!
                                                            
                       RAVEN
GO! I'LL CATCH UP!
                                                            
MELISSA HOPS INTO THE JEEP AND TAKES OFF IN THE OTHER
DIRECTION. RAVEN DISPOSES OF HIS LAST MUTANT HE WAS FIGHTING
AND THEN BEGINS TO RUN AFTER THE JEEP, WITH SEVERAL MUTANTS
CHASING HIM. HE PULLS OUT TWO HAND GRENADES AND THROWS THEM
BEHIND HIM AT THE PERSUING MUTANTS. THEN HE JUMPS ONTO THE
ROOF OF A CAR AND LEAPS INTO THE AIR AFTER THE JEEP. AS HE
MAKES HIS LEAP THE GRENADES GO OFF AND A GIANT BALL OF FIRE
IS UNLEASHED. MOMENTS LATER HE LANDS ON THE JEEP.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
YOU MADE IT!
                                                            
                       RAVEN
YEAH!
                                                            
                       MELISSA
WHAT NOW!?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
JUST KEEP DRIVING AND LET ME WORRY
ABOUT THOSE GUYS AHEAD!
                                                            
MELISSA KEEPS DRIVING THE JEEP, AS RAVEN PULLS HIS RIFLE OUT
AND LOADS A CARTRAGE OF GRENADES INTO THE GRENADE LAUNCHER
ON THE BOTTOM OF HIS RIFLE. AHEAD ARE SEVERAL OVER TURNED
CARS IN THEIR PATH AND DOZENS OF MUTANTS WAITING. AS THEY
APPROACH THE FIRST BLOCKADE RAVEN TAKES AIM AND FIRES A
GRENADE. THE EXPLOSION TOSSES SEVERAL MUTANTS INTO THE AIR,
AS WELL AS THE OVER TURNED CAR.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
OH MY GOD!
                                                            
                       RAVEN
JUST DRIVE RIGHT THROW! I'M
PLOWING THE FIELD!
                                                            
RAVEN BEGINS TO FIRE BULLETS AND GRENADES AS THEY APPROCH

27.

EACH AND EVERY BLOCKADE. KILLING DOZENS OF MUTANTS AND
CAUSING HEAVY DAMAGE TO THE CITY'S BUILDINGS AND CARS.
FINALLY THE TWO MAKE IT THROUGH AND CONTINUE TO DRIVE UNTIL
THEY ARE SAFELY AWAY FROM HARM.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
WE'RE CLEAR!
                                                            
                       RAVEN
STOP THE CAR!
                                                            
MELISSA DOES AS RAVEN SAYS AND STOPS THE CAR. AN EXAUSTED
RAVEN EXITS THE JEEP AND TAKES A BREATHER
                                                            
                       RAVEN
      (OUT OF BREATH)
ARE YOU OK?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
YEAH I'M FINE, YOU?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
JUST GREAT, WE'RE LUCKY WE MADE
OUT OF THAT ALIVE.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
YOU SURE LIVE UP OF YOU NAME AND
REPUTATION. BUT WHAT I DON'T GET
IS HOW THEY WERE ABLE TO SET THE
TRAP. THEY DON'T HAVE THE BRAIN
POWER OR THE INDEPENDENT THOUGHT
TO PLAN OR SET UP SOMETHING LIKE
THAT.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
WELL HOW EVER THEY DID IT, THEY
DID IT. WE NEED TO BE EVEN MORE
CAREFULL NOW THEN BEFORE. DUMB AS
SHIT MUTANTS ARE DANGEROUS BUT
SMART MUTANTS ARE DANGEROUS AS
HELL.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
YEAH NO KIDDING.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
HOW'S THE JEEP?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
FINE I GUESS, IT HELD UP PRETTY
WELL.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
YEAH IT'S BUILT LIKE A TANK.
                                                            

28.

                       MELISSA
YEAH, IT COULD USE SOME GAS
THOUGH, WE'RE ALL MOST ON EMPTY.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
WHERE IS THE NEAREST GAS STATION?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
WELL WE ARE AT THE EDGE OF HOLT,
WE CAN TAKE STUART, THERE'S A GAS
STATION ABOUT TWELVE BLOCKS FROM
HERE ON STUART.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
OK WE'LL DO THAT, BUT WE NEED TO
PROCEED WITH CAUTION. ALL RIGHT
LET'S GO.
                                                            
 
INT. THE GAS STATION - DAY
                                                            
THEY GET INTO THE JEEP AND DRIVE DOWN STUART AVE. TO THE GAS
STATION TWELVE BLOCKS DOWN. THEY APPROACH SLOWLY AND FIND NO
ONE OR NOTHING IN SIGHT. SO THEY PULL INTO THE GAS STATION
AND STOP AT A PUMP.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
ALL RIGHT WE'RE HERE, IS THIS SELF
SERVE OR SHOULD I RING THE BELL?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
WE DON'T HAVE TIME FOR CORNEY
JOKES, LET'S GO INSIDE AND SEE
WHAT WE HAVE.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
ALL RIGHT, LED THE WAY.
                                                            
THEY BOTH WALK INTO THE THE GAS STATION CONVIENCE STORE AND
FIND EVERYTHING NORMAL.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
WOW, IT LOOKS LIKE THIS PLACE
HASN'T BEEN TOUCHED AT ALL.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
YEAH, EVERYTHING IS IN IT'S PLACE,
ARE YOU HUNGRY?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
A LITTLE WHY? I HAVEN'T HAD THE
CHANCE TO GRAB A BITE TO EAT OVER
THE PAST FEW DAYS.
                                                            

29.

                       RAVEN
LET'S GRAB SOMETHING TO MUNCH ON,
BUT WE NEED TO KEEP MOVING.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
THAT'S STEALING.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
YEAH BUT THERE'S NO ONE HERE, I
DON'T THINK THEY'LL MIND. I'LL
TAKE CARE OF THE GAS.
                                                            
RAVEN WALKS OVER TO THE REGISTER, AND TURNS ON THE PUMP.
MELISSA GATHERS SOME FOOD FOR THE TWO AND THEN THEY BOTH
LEAVE. THEY WALK BACK TO THE JEEP AND RAVEN BEGINS TO PUMP
THE GAS. BUT ALL THE WHILE THEY DO NOT NOTICE A SHADOW LIKE
FIGURE IN THE BACK GROUND WATCHING EVERY MOVE THE TWO MAKE.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
YOU KNOW YOU HAVE TO CHEW YOUR
FOOD FIRST.
                                                            
MELISSA PIGS OUT ON HER MUNCHIES, AS IF SHE HASN'T ATE IN
SEVERAL DAYS.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
GIVE ME A BREAK, I HAVEN'T ATE IN
TWO DAYS, I'M JUST A LITTLE HUNGRY
YOU KNOW.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
OBVIOUSLY..
                                                            
                       MELISSA
WHAT'S ARE TIME?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
WE HAVE ABOUT TWO HOURS AND FIFTY
MINUTES LEFT.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
HUM.. YOU WANT SOME?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
NO THANKS, COMBAT RATIONS IS ALL I
REQUIRE FOR NOURISHMENT.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
NOT VERY APPITIZING THE WAY YOU
MAKE IT SOUND.
                                                            
RAVEN PULLS OUT TWO LONG BROWN STICKS, OPENS THE TOP AND
BEGINS TO POUR THEM INTO HIS MOUTH.
                                                            

30.

                       RAVEN
THERE not SUPPOSED TO BE
APPITIZING BUT THEY GET THE JOB
DONE JUST FINE. MY BODY IS NOT
LIKE YOURS.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
HOW SO?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
MY BODY HAS BEEN ALTERED TO
PERFORM AT OPTIMUM OFFINTCY. THERE
FOR I MUST ADHERE TO A STRICK DIET
TO KEEP MY BODY RUNNING THAT WAY.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
WOW, SOUNDS LIKE IT MAKES FOR A
REALLY BORING MEALS. BUT MY BODY
ON THE OTHER HAND IS NOT SO
PERFECT.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
NO IT'S NOT, HOW CAN YOU PUT THAT
JUNK INTO YOU BODY?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
LIKE THIS..
      (TAKES A BIT OF
       CAKE)
UMM DELICOUS.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
YOU KNOW WHAT THAT'S DOING TO YOU
BODY?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
YEAH BUT IT TASTES OH SO GOOD.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
YEAH WELL I LIKE MY RATIONS JUST
FINE. DO YOU THINK WE HAVE A
CHANCE IN HELL OF COMPLETING THIS
MISSION? DO YOU BELIEVE I CAN
SUCCEED AGAINST ALL ODDS?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
I BELIEVE IF ANYONE CAN SUCCEED,
IT'S YOU. YOU ARE THE BEST PERSON
FOR THE JOB. WHETHER YOU WILL
SUCCEED OR NOT, I CAN'T SAY, ONLY
TIME WILL TELL THAT STORY.
                                                            

31.

                       RAVEN
YEAH MAYBE BUT FAILURE IS NOT AN
OPTION FOR ME. IF I DON'T GET THE
VACCINE AND THIS VIRUS SPREADS
DISPITE OUR EFFORTS, WHAT THEN?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
THEN THE WORLD WILL HAVE TO LOOK
TO SOMEONE ELSE TO SAVE IT FOR A
CHANGE.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
THEY HAVE TO DESTORY THIS PLACE,
IT'S THE ONLY WAY TO STOP THIS
THING FROM SPREADING. BUT IN DOING
SO IT WILL DESTROY THE ONLY SAMPLE
OF THE VACCINE. HOW DO YOU MAKE A
LIFE OR DEATH DESICION LIKE THAT?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
YOU DON'T, THEY DO, THE GUYS THAT
WEAR THE SUITES AND THE FANCY
UNIFORMS GET TO MAKE THOSE CALLS,
NOT US. WE ARE JUST CALLED UPON TO
FIND ANSWERS, TO GIVE THEM
OPTIONS, BUT THE DESICION IS
ULTIMATELY THEIRS.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
YEAH RIGHT, BUT WHAT IF I DON'T
MAKE IT TO GRAY STOKE IN TIME, DO
I TURN AROUND AND SAVE MYSELF OR
KEEP TRYING, EVEN THOUGH I KNOW
THERE'S NO CHANCE IN HELL OF
MAKING IT? DO I JUST LET THOSE
SCIENTISTS AND SURVIVORS JUST DIE,
WITH OUT EVEN TRYING TO SAVE THEM?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU HAVE A
CONSCIENCE RAVEN, YOU BETTER BE
CAREFULL, WE WOULDN'T WANT THAT
NOW WOULD WE?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
NO, WE WOULD WANT THAT.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
SO WHAT NOW?
                                                            

32.

                       RAVEN
WE KEEP GOING, WE MAKE IT TO ARROW
HIGHWAY AND THEN TO GRAY STOKE. WE
HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO KEEP GOING.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
WELL WHAT ARE WE WAITING FOR? WE
HAVE A MISSION TO COMPLETE.
                                                            
RAVEN STARTS THE JEEP AND DRIVES OFF DOWN THE STREET, AS THE
TWO COMTINUE THEIR MISSION.
                                                            
 
INT. THE CHURCH - DAY
                                                            
AS THE TWO DRIVE DOWN THE STREET THEY SPOT A FIGURE IN THE
DISTANCE APPROACHING SLOWLY. SO THEY STOP AND GET OUT OF THE
JEEP. THEY HIDE IN AN ALLY AND WAIT FOR THE FIGURE TO PASS.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
WHAT DO YOU THINK IT IS?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
I HOPE IT'S NOT MORE MUTANTS, I
CAN'T TAKE ANOTHER BATTLE LIKE THE
LAST ONE. WAIT IT'S GETTING
CLOSER, GET READY.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
YEAH IT IS GETTING CLOSER, WHAT IS
IT?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
IT SOUNDS LIKE FOOT STEPS, SEVERAL
DOAZEN FOOT STEPS, COME LET'S HIDE
BEGIND THAT DUMPSTER NEAR THE
CHURCH.
                                                            
RAVEN AND MELISSA HIDE BEHIND A DUMPSTER IN AN ALLY NEAR A
CHURCH. AS A SMALL ARMY OF MUTANTS MARCHES DOWN THE STREET
APPARTENTLY LOOKING FOR SOMETHING.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
THERE ARE DOZENS OF THEM, WHAT ARE
THEY DOING?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
THERE SEARCHING FOR SOMETHING OR
SOMEONE.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
US...THERE LOOKING FOR US AREN'T
THEY?
                                                            

33.

                       RAVEN
THAT WOULD BE MY GUESS BUT THERE
NOT GOING TO CATCH US, HURRY DUCK
DOWN.
                                                            
RAVEN AND MELISSA DUCK DOWN AS THE MUTANTS PASS BY SLOWLY
BUT AS THEY PASS THEY HEAR FAINT VOICES COMING FROM THE
ALLY, SO ONE OF THE MUTANTS GOES TO INVESTAGATE. HE CLIMBS
UP THE SIDE OF THE BUILDING TO THE ROOF OF THE OLD CHURCH.
HE PEAKS DOWN INTO THE ALLY AND SEES THEM. HE JUMPS DOWN
FROM THE ROOF INTO THE ALLY AND GRABS MELISSA. SHE SCREAMS
AND THE OTHERS HEAR HER SCREAMS.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
SON OF A BITCH, LET HER GO!
                                                            
RAVEN DEMANDS AS THE MUTANT IGNORES HIS PLEAS, SO RAVEN
SHOTS THE MUTANT IN THE LEG, HE FALLS TO HIS KNEES AND NOW
RAVEN HAS A CLEAR SHOT AT HIM AND TAKES IT. MELISSA IS FREE
BUT THE ARMY OF MUTANTS IS MOVING CLOSER TO THEM.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
THERE GETTING CLOSER, WHAT DO WE
DO NOW?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
WE HAVE NO CHOICE, WE FIGHT BUT
NOT HERE, WE ARE TO EASY TARGETS
OUT HERE, THE CHURCH, HURRY!
                                                            
THE TWO MAKE A BREAK FOR THE CHURCH AS RAVEN LAYS DOWN
COVERING FIRE FOR THEM. THEY MAKE IT INTO THE CHURCH BUT THE
MUTANTS HAVE SURROUNDED THE BUILDING. RAVEN BARRACATED THE
DOOR AND IS PREPARING A PLAN.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
WHAT NOW RAVEN?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
I DON'T KNOW, THEY HAVE US
SURROUNDED. WE NEED A PLAN AND
FAST, ANY MOMENT THEIR GOING TO
COME THROUGH THAT DOOR. IS THERE
ANOTHER WAY OUT OF HERE, A BACK
DOOR?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
I'LL CHECK..
                                                            
MELISSA RUNS OFF TO FIND THE BACK DOOR TO THE CHURCH. AS SHE
PROCEEDS TO EXPLORE THE REAR OF THE CHURCH SHE HEARS NOISES
COMING FROM AN OFFICE IN THE BACK. SHE OPENS THE OFFICE DOOR
CAREFULLY, ONLY TO FIND A OF SURVIVOR HIDDEN INSIDE.
                                                            

34.

                       MELISSA
JOHNATHON IS THAT YOU?
                                                            
                       JOHN
      (HOLDING A GUN TO
       HER)
MELISSA IS THAT YOU?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
IT'S ME JOHN, MELISSA.
                                                            
                       JOHN
      (LOWERS THE GUN)
MELISSA OH MY GOD, HOW DID YOU
SURVIVE?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
I WAS IN TOWN WHEN THE EXPLOSION
HAPPENED AND THEN I TOOK UP REFUGE
IN A DINER. HOW DID YOU SURVIVE? I
THOUGHT YOU WERE DEAD, THAT YOU
DID IN THE EXPLOSION.
                                                            
                       JOHN
I MADE IT OUT IN TIME. THE OTHERS
ARE STILL ALIVE BUT THEY'RE
TRAPPED IN A THE LAB, WAITING FOR
RESCUE.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
I KNOW, THERE'S A FRIEND OF MINE
WHO WAS SENT HERE TO RESCUE THEM
AND GET THE VIRUS OUT BEFORE THE
END.
                                                            
                       JOHN
A FRIEND, WHO? WHAT DO YOU MEAN
THE END? WHAT IS GOING ON?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
IS THERE A BACK DOOR TO THIS
PLACE?
                                                            
                       JOHN
YES BUT I HAVE BARRACATED IT, IT
SHOULDN'T BE TO HARD TO
UNBARRACATE IT, WHY?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
GOOD, COME ON THERE'S SOMEONE I
WANT YOU TO MET.
                                                            

35.

THE TWO WALK OUT OF THE OFFICE TO THE BACK DOOR TO CHECK TO
SEE IF IT IS STILL SECURED. IT IS, SO THEY THEN PROCEED TO
GO BACK TO THE HALL IN THE CHURCH WHERE RAVEN IS SETTING C4
CHARGES BY THE FRONT DOORS.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
RAVEN LOOK WHO I FOUND!
                                                            
RAVEN STOPS WHAT HE IS DOING AND TURNS TO SEE WHO MELISSA IS
TALKING ABOUT.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
WHO IS THIS?
                                                            
                       JOHN
MY NAME IS JOHNATHON HANSON, I WAS
A DOCTOR ON THE PROJECT HYNDS
BLOOD.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
SO WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
HE MANAGED TO ESCAPE AFTER THE
EXPLOSION AND ESCAPE INFECTION.
                                                            
                       JOHN
I'VE BEEN HIDING OUT HERE EVER
SINCE.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
SO WHAT EXACTLY HAPPENED UP THERE?
                                                            
                       JOHN
OUR NUCLEAR REACTOR CORE OVER
LOADED AND CAUSED A CHAIN REACTION
EXPLOSION. MOST OF THE LAB WAS
DESTROYED IN THE INITIAL BLAST AND
IT WAS THAT BLAST THAT SPREAD THE
VIRUS.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
WHAT WAS THE BLAST RADIUS?
                                                            
                       JOHN
ABOUT FIFTEEN MILES WIDE, ENOUGH
TO ENCOMPASS THE WHOLE TOWN.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
COULD THE VIRUS HAVE BEEN SPREAD
FURTHER THEN FIFTEEN MILES? IT'S
AN AIRBORNE VIRUS RIGHT?
                                                            

36.

                       JOHN
YES THAT IS TRUE BUT IT IS HIGHLY
UNLIKELY DUE TO THE FACT THAT WIND
CONDITIONS WERE MINIMAL. THE VIRUS
WOULD HAVE TRAVELED VERY SLOWLY
WITHOUT WIND. IT IS MORE LIKELY
THE GREAT BARRIOR THAT WAS ERECTED
WOULD HAVE CONTAINED IT IN THIS
GENERAL AREA.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
BUT YOU DON'T KNOW THAT FOR SURE?
                                                            
                       JOHN
THAT IS CORRECT, I CAN'T NOT SAY
FOR CERTAIN BUT THE ODDS OUR THAT
IT IS HIGHLY UNLIKELY.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
THAT JUST MEANS WE NEED TO GET
THAT ANTI SYRUM EVEN MORE NOW THEN
BEFORE. BUT WE ONLY HAVE TWO AND A
HALF HOURS BEFORE THIS PLACE IS
TURNED INTO A PARKING LOT. MAYBE I
CAN BY US SOME MORE TIME, IF I CAN
GET A SIGNAL TO GENERAL HOPKINS.
                                                            
RAVEN ACTIVATES HIS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM AND TRIES
DESPERATELY TO GET A SIGNAL TO GENERAL HOPKINS.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
THIS IS RAVEN TO STRIKE FORCE ONE,
COME IN...
                                                            
                       GENERAL (VO)
      (STATIC CAN BE
       HEARD)
I'M HERE RAVEN, WHAT DO GOT?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
I CAN BARELY HEAR YOU SIR, I'M
ONLY GETTING BITS AND PIECES OF
WHAT YOUR SAYING. CAN YOU GIVES US
MORE TIME? WE ARE HAVING MORE
TROUBLE THEN FIRST ANTICIPATED,I
HAVE FOUND TWO OF THE SCIENTIST
WHO WORKED ON THE PROJECT BUT HAVE
NOT YET GOT THE ANTI SYRUM.
                                                            
                       GENERAL (VO)
ONLY HAVE TWO HALF HOURS LEFT, CAN
GIVE HALF MORE BUT THAT ALL CAN
DO.
                                                            

37.

                       RAVEN
ALL RIGHT HALF HOUR MORE WILL JUST
HAVE TO DO, JUST BE READY FOR US
WHEN WE COME OUT, OVER AND OUT.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
SO HE CAN ONLY GIVE US A HALF HOUR
MORE?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
YEAH
                                                            
                       MELISSA
WHAT ABOUT OUR FRIENDS OUTSIDE?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
WE DON'T HAVE A CHOICE, WE HAVE TO
FIGHT OUR WAY OUT. YOU HAVE A GUN
BUT DO YOU KNOW HOW TO USE IT?
                                                            
                       JOHN
I'VE ONLY USED IT ONCE, I DON'T
LIKE GUNS.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
WELL YOU BETTER START NOW BECAUSE
IF WE ARE GOING TO MAKE IT OUT OF
HERE I NEED BOTH YOU TO HELP ME.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
I PLANTED C4 CHARGES NEAR THE
DOOR, THAT WILL BY US A LITTLE
TIME, I FOUND SEVERAL PROPANE
TANKS LYING AROUND, SO I RIGGED
THEM TO BE A GIANT BOMB. BUT THE
TIMER ONLY HAS A DELAY OF THRITY
SECONDS. SO I WILL HAVE TO HAUL
ASS BEFORE THIS CHURCH IS BLOWN TO
HEAVEN. HERE YOU TWO TAKE THESE..
      (HANDS THEM GUNS)
THESE ARE AR-17'S, THEY ARE
AUTOMATIC RIFLES, COMPACT, LIGHT
WEIGHT AND DAMN GOOD IN A FIGHT.
YOU'LL NEED THEM. HIT THE THAT
LITTLE BUTTON BY THE TRIGGER AND
IT GOES TO SINGLE SHOT, HIT IT
AGAIN AND IT GOES BACK TO
AUTOMATIC, GOT IT?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
I'VE NEVER FIRED A GUN BEFORE.
                                                            

38.

                       RAVEN
NOTHING TO IT, JUST POINT AND
PRESS THE TRIGGER BACK, THAT'S
ALL.
                                                            
THEY BEGIN TO HEAR NOISES OUTSIDE AND THE DOORS BEGIN TO
SHAKE MORE AND MORE.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
IT LOOKS LIKE OUR BOYS OUTSIDE ARE
GETTING A LITTLE RESTLESS.
EVERYONE GET READY, WELL ESCAPE
OUT THE BACK, WHEN I SAY GO, YOU
GUYS RUN LIKE HELL, GOT IT?
                                                            
THEY JUST NOD THEIR HEADS IN AGREEMENT, JUST AS THE MUTANTS
BREAK DOWN THE DOOR AND COME POURING IN DOZENS AT A TIME.
THE THREE OF THEM BEGIN SHOOTING THEM AS THEY COME THROUGH
BUT THERE ARE TO MANY OF THEM. ONCE THEY ARE INSIDE THE
DOOR, ONE OF THEM TRIGGERS THE C4 AND SETS IT OFF. A MASSIVE
EXPLOSION ENSUES AT THE DOORWAY, KILLING ALL OF THEM WHO ARE
NEAR BY. THAT BOUGHT THEM SOME TIME.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
GET READY!
                                                            
RAVEN MOVES TOWARDS THE DOORWAY TO LAY DOWN COVERING FIRE
FOR THE OTHERS ESCAPE, WHEN SEVERAL MUTANTS COME FALLING
THROUGH THE CEILING. RAVEN LOOKS UP AND BEGINS TO SHOT THEM
AS THEY FALL BUT SEVERAL MAKE IT DOWN AND HE IS NOW ENGAGING
THEM HAND TO HAND.HE THROWING MUTANTS LEFT AND RIGHT,
KILLING ONE AFTER ANOTHER, AS THE OTHER TWO HAVE THEIR HANDS
FULL SHOOTING THE REMAINING MUTANTS. HE STABS THE LAST OF
THE MUTANTS AND TELLS THE OTHERS TO GO.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
GO NOW!! GET OUT OF HERE!!
                                                            
THE OTHERS TAKE OFF FOR THE BACK DOOR, AS RAVEN LAYS DOWN
COVERING FIRE FOR THE TWO ESCAPE. HE MAKES HIS WAY OVER TO
THE MAKE SHIFT PROPANE BOMB AND FLIPS THE SWITCH. HE NOW HAS
THIRTY SECONDS TO GET OUT, HE MAKES HIS WAY FOR THE BACK
DOOR, WHEN A MUTANT POPS OUT AND BEGINS TO FIGHT WITH HIM.
HE DISPOSES OF THE MUTANT BUT ONLY HAS TEN SECONDS TO GET
OUT. HE RUNS LIKE HELL AND MAKES IT OUT SIDE, HE CONTINUES
TO RUN. AS THE CHURCH EXPLODES IN A BALL OF FIRE HE IS
KNOCKED TO THE GROUND BY THE FORCE OF THE BLAST. HE LOOKS
BACK AND SEES THE ENTIRE CHURCH ENGULFED IN FLAMES.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
GET IN RAVEN!
                                                            

39.

MELISSA SAID TO RAVEN AS SHE AND JOHN PULLED UP NEXT TO HIM
IN AN SUV. SO HE DOES AND THE THREE DRIVE OFF QUICKLY, NOT
BEING FOLLOWED BY ANY OF THE MUTANTS THAT SURVIVED.
                                                            
 
EXT. BADILLO STREET - DAY
                                                            
                       JOHN
ARE YOU INJURED?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
      (IN AGONY)
I'M FINE, I JUST GOT A LITTLE
RUFFED UP BACK THERE BUT I'LL
LIVE.
                                                            
                       JOHN
THAT WOUND ON YOUR SHOULDER LOOKS
PRETTY BAD, YOU ARE GOING TO NEED
MEDICAL ATTENTION RIGHT AWAY.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
THERE'S A CLINIC NOT TO FAR FROM
HERE, WE COULD PROBABLY GET SOME
MEDICAL SUPPLIES FROM THERE.
                                                            
                       JOHN
WE PROBABLY SHOULD, HE WON'T KAST
LONG WITH A WOUND LIKE THAT.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
WE DON'T HAVE TIME, WE HAVE TO GET
TO THE LAB, WE CAN'T AFFORD ANY
MORE RISKS.
                                                            
                       JOHN
WHAT GOOD WOULD IT DO US, IF YOU
DIE BEFORE WE GET TO THE LAB.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
I'M HEADING FOR THE CLINIC, IT'LL
TAKE ABOUT FIVE MINTUES TO GET
THERE.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
HOW WELL GUARDED IS THE LAB?
                                                            
                       JOHN
LAST I SAW THERE WERE MUTANTS ALL
OVER THAT AREA, IT WON'T BE EASY
TO GET IN. DOCTOR LEVRY AND THE
OTHERS ARE HELD UP INSIDE THE MAIN
COMPOUND, THERE'S ONLY ONE WAY IN.
            (MORE)

40.

                       JOHN (cont'd)
IT'S A 6 INCH THICK METAL DOOR
THAT CAN ONLY BE OPEN BY A DNA
SCAN OF ONE OF US. THERE'S NO WAY
THE MUTANTS AND GET INTO THAT PART
OF THE LAB.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
GOOD, AT LEAST WE KNOW THERE SAFE
INSIDE THERE. WHAT ABOUT THE ANTI
SYRUM, IS IT IN THERE AS WELL?
                                                            
                       JOHN
YES IT IS, DOCTOR LEVRY HAS THE
LAST TWO VILES OF IT. WE ALL
INKNOCKULATED OURSELVES, SO WE
WOULD BECOME INFECTED.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
WE ARE GOING TO NEED A PLAN ON HOW
TO GET INSIDE AND PAST THE ARMY
OUTSIDE.
                                                            
                       JOHN
IT'S NOT GOING TO BE EASY, WE WILL
NEED SOME KIND OF A DEVERSION, TO
DISTRACT THEM, WHILE WE GET
INSIDE.
                                                            
MELISSA PULLS UP TO THE CLINC AND PARKS THE SUV ALONG SIDE
THE CURB.
                                                            
 
INT. THE CLINIC - DAY
                                                            
                       MELISSA
WE'RE HERE..
                                                            
                       JOHN
LET'S GO..
                                                            
                       RAVEN
BE CAREFULL, WE DON'T KNOW WHAT'S
IN THERE. HAVE YOU WEAPONS READY,
JUST IN CASE.
                                                            
THE THREE OF THEM GET OUT AND ENTER THE CLINIC CAUSTIOUSLY
WITH THEIR WEAPONS AT THE READY. THEY ARE SEARCHING FOR A
STOCK ROOM OR AN EXAMINATION ROOM.
                                                            
                       JOHN
HERE THERE SHOULD BE SOME MED KITS
IN HERE.
                                                            

41.

JOHN OPENS THE DOOR TO THE SUPPLY ROOM AND SLOWLY ENTERS,
MAKING SURE THERE ARE NO MUTANTS HIDING INSIDE.
                                                            
                       JOHN
IT'S CLEAR, COME ON IN.
                                                            
RAVEN AND MELISSA FOLLOW HIM IN. RAVEN SITS DOWN ON A WOODEN
TABLE AS JOHN GRABS A MED KIT AND TENDS TO HIS WOUNDS. WHILE
MELISSA SEARCHES THE ROOM.
                                                            
                       JOHN
YOU'VE LOST ALOT OF BLOOD, BUT IT
SEEMS YOUR BODY IS CLOTTING
REMARKABLY WELL, I'VE NEVER SEEN
ANYTHING LIKE IT BEFORE. AS IF
IT'S NOT HUMAN ALL MOST.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
YEAH WELL WHAT CAN I SAY, I'M
SPECIAL, I HEAL FAST.
                                                            
                       JOHN
LOOKS LIKE IT, WELL I'LL STILL
PATCH THE WOUND UP BUT YOU WILL
NEED TO BE VERY CAREFULL, YOU
DON'T WANT TO REOPEN THE WOUND.
                                                            
MELISSA IS OVER BY A LAB TABLE LOOKING AT A CASE OF BLOOD
VIALS. SHE IS LOOKING AT THE NAMES AND DATES LISTED ON THE
VIALS.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
HEY GUYS TAKE A LOOK AT THIS, I
FOUND THEM ON THIS TABLE HERE.
                                                            
RAVEN AND JOHN WALK OVER TO MELISSA AND THE TABLE TO TAKE A
LOOK AT WHAT SHE FOUND.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
THERE VIALS OF BLOOD, SAMPLES
RATHER, DUPLICATES FOR EVERY NAME.
IT LOOKS LIKE ONE VIAL WAS TAKEN
BEFORE THE VIRUS INFECTED THE
PERSON AND THE OTHER VIAL OF BLOOD
WAS TAKEN AFTER THE VIRUS INFECTED
THE HOST.
                                                            
JOHN TAKES TWO OF THE VIALS AND COMPARES THE TWO.
                                                            

42.

                       JOHN
YOUR RIGHT MELISSA, THIS ONE HAS A
DATE OF 03-23-2008 AND THIS ONE
HAS A DATE OF 03-26-2008, AFTER
THE VIRUS WAS SPREAD.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
THE ONLY EXPLANATION FOR THIS, IS
THAT SOMEONE WAS COMPARING THE TWO
SAMPLES. MOST LIKELY TO STUDY THE
AFFECTS OF THE VIRUS.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
BUT WHO? AND WHY?
                                                            
                       JOHN
I don't know, it couldn't have
been anyone from out team because
only you and I were not trapped in
the lab after the accident.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
So someone else in this town was
doing their own research of the
virus. Perhaps someone who was not
inffected and was trying to find a
cure?
                                                            
                       JOHN
Yes, that's one possibility but
the question is who? Who could
have done this?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
I don't know but we should take
the samples with us, to conduct
our own research.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Take a look at this Doctor Hanson,
look at the cellular structure of
the two blood cells.
                                                            
Melissa rises up from looking into the microscope and clears
the way for Doctor Hanson to take a look.
                                                            

43.

                       JOHN
Amazing, look at how fast the
cellular structure of the cells
was mutated and began to change.
In only three days, according to
the dates on the vials. Perhaps
even sooner, I've never seen a
virus act this quickly.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
A virus that would appear to be
not from this world.
                                                            
                       JOHN
Yes exactly, something far worse
then the mind of man could dream
up. Much like Ebola is thought to
be from another world, Mars to be
exact. It is thought that when the
Mars lander brought back soil
samples from Mars, that they
carried Ebola and even all of the
fail safes and percaustions that
were taken did not prevent Ebola's
exposure to the population.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
So where do you think this came
from, Melissa said it is thought
that it reached Earth by way of
meteor shower several years ago,
is that right?
                                                            
                       JOHN
Yes that is one theory, when you
have debris and matter from other
planets and places in the
universe, there is all ways a
chance they could carry something
deadly with them through space.
And we would have no defense
against it because it is not from
this world.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
It takes several years of research
to study it's affects on our
bodies, even on our atmosphere,
etc.. It would help greatly if we
knew were it came from, from what
region or planet in space.
                                                            

44.

                       RAVEN
Don't you guys track everything
that enters our solar system and
for that matter objects out in
deep space? How did you guys not
know that this meteor shower would
hit Earth?
                                                            
                       JOHN
MR. Raven several space debris
enters our solar system, some
comes in contact with our world
and some dosn't. Most is dystroyed
upon it's entering of our
atmosphere and so forth. So very
little ever actually makes it to
Earth it self. If it is not deemed
a threat, such as an asteriod that
is ten mile long on a collision
course with Earth, then we destroy
it, but if it poses not threat, we
simply let it pass.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
That's right, we don't live in a
kind of space bubble, just like
you don't live in a bubble here on
Earth. Our planet is like a giant
human body, it breathes, functions
and has it own systems to sustain
it self and we as humans are part
of that body. And just like us,
Earth gets sick, hence earth
quakes. Earth quakes are like a
big burp from the Earth,
volcanoe's are like Earth blowing
it's nose, etc..
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Ok I get it, so this debris from
space hit earth right?
                                                            
                       JOHN
Yes that is correct.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Then wouldn't it have been spread
all over the world and not just
localized in one area?
                                                            
                       JOHN
Yes that is correct, it was spread
out throught a wide dispersal
            (MORE)

45.

                       JOHN (cont'd)
pattern over the globe but was
mostly concintrated here in North
Folk Virgina.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
So intern you guys set up the lab
called Grey Stoke on the Estate.
You built it under ground with out
anyone in the town knowing what
was going on. You were conducting
deadly experiments with in a town
of ten thousand innocent people,
all in the name of good?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Yes we couldn't risk telling the
towns people what we were up to.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Why not because they might object
to having potenially deadly
experiments conducted in their own
back yard, you people are all the
same.
                                                            
                       JOHN
And who are you to judge us
morally, you are a soldier, a pawn
of the government. You kill for a
living, you kill whom ever the
government deems as it's enemy,
that is just as morally
reprehencable as anything we've
ever done. So don't judge us
unless you are willing to be
judged yourself. History will be
our judge and not man.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
That's where your wrong doctor
Hansen, God will be your judge.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Look we don't have time for this
shit, we only have a few hours
left before we all will be meeting
our makers. I don't know about the
two of you but i sure as hell am
not ready to die. So let's gets
moving, we have a mission to
complete.
                                                            

46.

                       RAVEN
Yeah right, let's go before
someone sees us here.
                                                            
The three walk out of the supply room and down the hallway,
when they hear a noise behind them. They act quickly and
check a near by door to see if it's locked but it's not, so
they quickly hide inside.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
What was that noise?
                                                            
                       JOHN
It sounded like a crash.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Yeah it did and it came from
behind us.
                                                            
Raven carefully opens the door, and slowly peeks his head
out to see what was going on in the hallway. He sees a giant
mutant with two other smaller mutants coming out of a lab
several feet down the hallway. The two mutants are carrying
some type of object covered by a sheet and are being
directed by the giant mutant.
                                                            
                       GIANT MUTANT
Hurry up, we don't have time to
waste.
                                                            
                       MUTANT ONE
Yes we must hurry, master is
waiting for us.
                                                            
                       MUTANT TWO
What about the others?
                                                            
                       GIANT MUTANT
They will be delt with, along with
everyone else. Come on, be
carefull.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
      (Peeks his head
       out)
There are three mutants down the
hall and one of them is the size
of a building.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Can you make out what they are
saying?
                                                            

47.

                       RAVEN
Not really, just bits and pieces,
something about no time, deal with
them later. Shuh.. be quit they're
headed this way.
                                                            
Raven sticks his head back into the room and closes the
door, all with out making a sound. The three mutants begin
to walk down the hallway toward Raven and the others. Their
foot steps can be heard echoing through the hall. As they
pass by the room Raven and the others are hiding in, there
shadows can be seen under the door as they pass. Moments
later it is once again quit, so Raven peeks his head out
again and sees no one in sight.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
It's clear, come on, let's get out
of here.
                                                            
They exit the room and walk into the hallway caustiously,
looking around the whole time.
                                                            
                       JOHN
This is not good..
                                                            
                       RAVEN
What's not good?
                                                            
                       JOHN
The fact that they have a
structured language and
communicate with one another,
suggests signs of intelligence,
something up until now we thought
they did not have.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
We all ready discovered that back
on Holt ave. when those bastards
set a trap for us and nearly
suceeded in killing us.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Yes that's correct doctor Hanson,
they planned and exicuted a
cleverly designed plot to trap and
kill us.
                                                            

48.

                       JOHN
But how is this even possible,
early tests of the infected
subjects yeild no indication of
inteligence once infect and
cellular mutation occured.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Yes there were no signs at all,
that is weird.
                                                            
                       JOHN
Yes very, but I still don't
understand how this could be
possible.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Maybe you missed something in your
early test. Over look something or
didn't take something into
account.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Highly unlikely..
                                                            
                       RAVEN
What that even you guys, the ones
who play God made a mistake?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
That's not what I meant Raven.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Obviously there was something that
didn't show up in your early tests
that developed later on. You just
didn't account for everything.
                                                            
                       JOHN
Not possible we accounted for
every variable.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
What i want to know is what they
took from that room, what was
under that sheet.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Let's go and check it out.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
All right be we need to make it
fast, we are running out of time
            (MORE)

49.

                       RAVEN (cont'd)
and we can afford being caught,
not now, not when we are so close.
                                                            
The three of them slowly walk over to the room very quitely.
As they get closer to the room they are able to read the
lettering on the door, which reads: "Labratory One -
Genetics Research".
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Genetics research? Let's go inside
and see what is in there?
                                                            
Melissa slowly opens the door and peeks inside, only to find
that the place has been trashed. Tables over turned, vials
broken, microscopes lying on the floor, light bulbs
shattered.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
This place looks like world war
three was fought here. What could
they have been after here?
                                                            
Melissa Searches the ransaked room for clues. She comes
across some suspicious materials on a table in the back of
the room.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Raven, John, take a look at this.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
What did you find?
                                                            
They both walk over to where Melissa is and look at empty
vials of blood, cell phones, pagers, and black power lying
on the table.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
What do you suppose this stuff is?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
I don't know, but what ever it
was, is gone now. The only way we
will know now is to find them. We
don't have time to play hide and
seek here, we need to get going,
we have less then three hours
left.
                                                            
The three of them caustiously walk out of the room, down the
hallway and out of the clinc. They get back into their
comendeered SUV and drive off down the street.
                                                            
 

50.

INT. THE ELEMENTRY SCHOOL - DAY
                                                            
As the three drive down the street it begins to rain
heavily, so bad that they cannot see in front of them. So
they pull over to the side of the road and take up refuge in
the town elementry school. The school seems to be empty, so
they enter the school and begin to look around in one of the
classrooms.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
We can stay here until the storm
lets up a little, I just hope it
does soon, we are running out of
time.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
You never told me how you plan to
get into Grey Stoke and into the
lab.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
That's because I don't know yet. I
presume the lab is going to be
crawling with mutants. I just
haven't figured out a way to get
past them and how we are going to
get out.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
We could fight our way in.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Yeah but I'm not big on taking on
an army of mutants when I don't
have to. We need to create some
type of diversion.
                                                            
                       JOHN
How about an explosion?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Yeah we could blow something up,
to draw there attention else
where.
                                                            

51.

                       RAVEN
Ok but what? It would have to be
big to be able to draw there
attention long enough for us to
get inside. We could blow up a car
or something near by with C4 to
draw there attention and then shot
our way in. Tell me about the labs
security system.
                                                            
                       JOHN
Well the lab is directly under
Grey Stoke, theres a tunnel that
leds from the dinning room of the
house to the main entrance of the
lab.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Ok now tell me about the main
entrance of the lab.
                                                            
                       JOHN
Well there is a a steel door about
six inches thick, that can only be
open by a retina and thumb print
scan of one of the team members.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
So you or melissa can open the
door.
                                                            
                       JOHN
Yes that's correct.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Six inches of steel, that's to
thick for anyone to blast through,
I assume the walls have similar
thickness?
                                                            
                       JOHN
Yes I believe they are three or
four inches thick.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
All right, well once we are in
there, we will be stuck, theres no
way we would be able to get out.
Is there another way in or out?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
No theres not.
                                                            

52.

                       JOHN
That's not entirely acurate.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
What do you mean?
                                                            
                       JOHN
There is another way out, there is
a secret door that leds to a
tunnel and the tunnel subsiquently
leds to the front of town. It was
constructed to be an emergency
exit, just in case something went
wrong and the main entrance was
cut off.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
What? I didn't know about any
secret exit.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
If she didn't know, how did you? I
mean you sure know alot about the
layout of the lab.
                                                            
                       JOHN
Yes that is true, the reason being
is I helped design the lab.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Ok then explain this to me, if the
lab is under ground and the walls
being three or four inches thick,
made of steel, then how did the
explosion spread the virus? The
blast shouldn't have been strong
enough to penetrate walls that
thick?
                                                            
                       JOHN
I don't know, all I know is that
the lab where it was kept was
adjasent to the main power
generator and when it over loaded,
the explosion also engulfed the
virus lab aswell. It was strong
enough to penetrate our walls and
blew a hole in the groud. Through
that whole in the ground, the
virus was released and due to the
windy conditions that day, it was
spread throughout the town.
                                                            

53.

                       RAVEN
Some thing here just dosn't add
up, are you sure your telling me
everything? You are not holding
anything back?
                                                            
                       JOHN
No nothing, I have told you
everything I know, I swear.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Just what are you acussing him of
Raven, of lying to you? Maybe of
setting this whole thing up? To
what end?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
I'm not accusing him of anything,
I'm just trying to make sure
theres nothing that he might have
left out. This just dosn't add up,
theres something missing, what I
don't know but I intend to find
out.
                                                            
                       JOHN
We would all like to know what
exactly happened that terrable day
in infamy.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
      (Looks out the
       window)
You know what I just realized?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
No what?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
That besides the little girl who
attacked me earlier, we have yet
to see another child mutant.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
You're right, I wonder why that
is, I wonder why that is?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Yeah so do I.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Does the virus affect children in
the same way and at the same rate?
                                                            

54.

                       JOHN
That I do not know, perhaps it
reacts slower in children or
faster, I cannot say for certain.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
What was that noise?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
What noise?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
I thought I heard something coming
from the hall.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
You two stay here, I'll check it
out.
                                                            
Raven walks out into the hallway and closes the door behind
him. He moves slowly throughout the school hallway, with his
weapon at the ready for what ever is there. As he wonders
around he thinks he sees a small child in the distance.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Hello, is anyone there? You can
come out, I won't hurt you.
                                                            
He continues to walk in the direction of what he thought he
saw. As he comes to the end of the hallway he hears noises,
coming from one of the rooms at the end of the hall. So he
caustiously goes to investigate. He peeks through the window
of the classroom only to see several children inside. The
children appear not to be fully mutated and still look sum
what human.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
What the hell is going on here? I
don't understand.
                                                            
The children are moving around sparatically and appear to be
mindless. As he watches the children in the room, several
other children appear behind and are blocking his way.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Hey there kids, how are you guys?
                                                            
The children just stare at him not saying a word. But still
blocking his way.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Not big on talking huh? Well
that's ok, I need to go now, so if
            (MORE)

55.

                       RAVEN (cont'd)
you could move out of my way, I'll
just be going.
                                                            
The children don't move an inch, just continue to stare at
him with an icy glare. So he raise his weapon and begins to
slowly approach the children, in an attempt to leave. He
passes right through the children without incident. He
points his weapon at the children the whole time until he is
all most out of sight. When he turns back around a mutant
child jumps out at him and bits him on the leg. The other
children swarm and they all surround him and begin to attack
him.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Get off me!
                                                            
The children begin to bit and scratch Raven, he hits them
with the bud of his gun and shots them dead. After he kills
each one of the children he heads back to the others.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Where have you been?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
I was attacked by school children.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
I suppose you were also attacked
by the tooth fairy and the elves
too right?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
No I'm serious god damnmet, theres
something going on here. There are
children locked in classrooms down
the hall. They're not completely
mutated. Then a gang of mutated
children tried to jump me in the
hall. I had to kill them, to get
away.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
You did what?
                                                            
                       JOHN
Your not serious, you didn't shot
children in the head.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
I had too, those were little
mutant creatures and not children,
anymore than those mutants out
there are human. We need to get
            (MORE)

56.

                       RAVEN (cont'd)
the fuck out of here now, before
it's too late.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
But the storm hasn't let up that
much.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
It dosn't matter, we need to go
now. They're coming, they're
getting closer, come on, I'll
cover you.
                                                            
As the three leave the classroom, they look down the hall
and see several mutant children moving toawards them.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Raven you can't shot them, they're
children.
                                                            
                       JOHN
Come on Melissa, we have to go.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Listen to him Melissa, get going
now!
                                                            
Melissa and John begin to run down the hallway in the other
direction. As they do Raven begins to shot the advancing
mutant children. But there are too many of them and they are
begining to over whelm him. So he sets a C4 charge and
begins to take off. The C4 explodes and he runs out of the
front doors of the school, to find Melissa and John waiting
for him in the car. He jumps into the car and the three of
them take off down the street.
                                                            
 
EXT. VINELAND AVE. - NIGHT
                                                            
The three drive down Vineland ave. for several miles before
pulling over to the side of the road to regroup.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
So what now?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
We keep going, all the way to Grey
Stoke.
                                                            
                       JOHN
But how will we get past all the
mutants guarding the estate?
                                                            

57.

                       RAVEN
The old fashion way, we'll create
a diversion and then shoot our way
in. I'll create the diversion,
once they're distracted, you guys
sneak in and I'll follow you.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Ok, but what's going to be the
diversion?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
I don't know yet, just leave that
to me. You guys gotta be ready to
shot your way in if nessassary,
when I give you the word.
                                                            
                       JOHN
We can do that, but we are going
to need more fire power than these
guns here.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
There's a police sub-station not
to far from here, they might have
the fire power we're looking for.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
All right, let's go there and see
what we can find.
                                                            
The three drive off down the street and are headed for the
police sub-station, which is a few miles down.
                                                            
 
EXT. POLICE SUB-STATION - NIGHT
                                                            
The three pull up in the SUV and park across the street from
the station. Melissa and Raven exit the SUV and go into the
police sub-station, while John stays behind as a look out.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Look at this place, it looks like
world war three was fought here.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Yeah, it was probably one of the
first places hit after the
explosion. Judging by the dead
boides of the cops and the bullet
holes in the walls, it looks like
they put up a fight.
                                                            

58.

                       MELISSA
Sure does look like, theres at
least four cops dead. It looks
like they were not infected or
they died before the virus could
take affect.
                                                            
As Raven and Melissa search the police station, they find
four cop bodies lying on the floor, bullet holes in the
walls and the entire place has been torn up. Raven walks
over to a officers body in the corner and inspects it.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
This ones got bit marks on his
neck.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Yeah so does this one, that's
strange.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Maybe these cops escaped being
infected some how and suddenly
found themselves out numbered ten
thousand to four and had to fight
off a small army of mutants.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
If that was the case, then I
wonder how they escaped infection.
Maybe they were inside and never
went outside after the accident.
So intern they wouldn't have been
infected with the virus like
everyone else.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
If that's true, wouldn't there be
more people who weren't infected?
Assuming they figured out what was
going on and didn't go out side.
Wait, this cop has a bit mark on
his neck and a single gun shot
wound to his head.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
What do you make of that?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
It looks like he committed
suicide, maybe he took his own
life after he was bitten.
                                                            

59.

                       MELISSA
That would seem te most logical
theory.
                                                            
Raven leaves the cops body and walks over to door in the
rear that is locked. So he kicks the door in and turns on
the light, to reveal a room full of weapons.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
I'll be damned, look at this
Melissa.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
      (WALKS UP)
What is it Raven, what did you
find?
      (Looks inside the
       room)
Shit, a room full of guns.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
      (Goes inside)
Not just guns, these are M18
assault rifles with grenade
launchers, C4 explosives, hand
grenades, AR13 semi assault
rifles, remote detonators, body
armor, enough amo to last a year.
This is as much fire power as am
packing, shit this is more then
I'm packing.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Yes it certainly is but why would
a police station have so much fire
power. Police in major metro
polatin areas don't carry this
mush fire power.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Yeah no shit, only the elite of
the military carry this kind of
fire power.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
So what were the police of a small
west virginian town doing with
this stuff? Not to mention how
they got their hands on this
stuff.
                                                            

60.

                       RAVEN
Damned if I know but this is
exactly what we need. Here grab
these M18 and more amo. I'll get
the C4, granades and these radio
detonators.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Ok but how do you explain this?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
I don't know but theres alot we
can't explain. This whole thing
can't be explained.
                                                            
Raven and Melissa load up the SUV with weapons and
explosives. After they take what they need, they drive off
down the street still with unanswered questions about what
went on in the police station.
                                                            
 
EXT. OUTSIDE GREY STOKE - DAY
                                                            
The three pull up in the SUV a few meters away, to check out
the layout. They exit the car and take up positions near by
and scope the place out.
                                                            
                       JOHN
The place is crawling with
mutants.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
They're everywhere.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Theres no easy approach, the
hardway and the hardway.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
So what's the plan Raven?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
I will create a diversion by
blowing up the car with C4, I'll
use the remote detonators for
that. The two of you wait in the
wings for the bomb to go off, once
it does you guys make your way to
the front door.
                                                            

61.

                       JOHN
What about the ones guarding the
door? The explosion won't draw
everyone away.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
That's why I'll creat a second
diversion to draw their attention,
so you two and make your way
inside. You'll have to shot your
way into the lab, but it's our
best shot, I'll be right behind
you.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
We can do this.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
What ever you do don't stop until
you get to the lab. Don't let
anyone or anything get in your
way. If I don't make it, you two
are man kinds last hope and you
guys have to make it out. Use the
secret tunnel to get yourselves
and the syrum out, forget you ever
knew me.
                                                            
                       JOHN
Understood Raven, good luck.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
I'm going to try and get a signal
into the lab, to warn them of
what's about to happen but I need
to know the frequency they are on.
                                                            
                       JOHN
It's frequency 106.7, there comm
system is probably down but it's
worth a shot.
                                                            
Raven activates his comm system and enters in the frequency
for the lab, in an attempt to contact the trapped scientist
inside to let them know they are coming for them.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Hello, is anyone there?
                                                            
                       KYLE (VO)
      (STATICY)
Yes here, is this?
                                                            

62.

                       RAVEN
I got a signal but there's too
much static interference to make
out what he is saying. Who is
this? Doctor Kyle?
                                                            
                       KYLE (VO)
Yes, who this? Are trapped side
lab.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Doctor Kyle I know you are trapped
inside the lab, we are coming to
get you out, be ready for us. It
will be a few minutes, just be
ready.
                                                            
                       KYLE (VO)
Ok
                                                            
                       RAVEN
I hope Doctor Kyle understood me.
                                                            
                       JOHN
Yes let us hope he did.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
All right, you guys grab your
weapons and be ready to move.
                                                            
                       JOHN
All right, let's go Melissa.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Raven be carefull.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
You too, just get to that lab.
                                                            
Melissa and John load up on weapons and ammo from the car
and proceed to take up positions on the right side of the
estate, waiting for the diversion. The mutants are just
wondering around the estate, unaware of what is about to
happen. Raven moves the car to the left side of the estate,
rigs it with the C4 and then moves away from it. He finds a
motor cycle nearby and decides to use that aswell. He mounts
the motorcycle, turns it on. Moments later he blows up the
SUV, immediately drawing their attention over to the
explosion.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
That's our cue John, let's go.
                                                            

63.

                       JOHN
And so it begins.
                                                            
Melissa and John now move in towards the front door of
mansion. The mutants guarding the door spot them and move
toward them. They begin to shot the mutants but there are
too many, they begin to become overwhelmed.
                                                            
                       JOHN
There is too many of these
fockers, we have to fall back!
                                                            
                       MELISSA
No! Give him more time!
                                                            
                       JOHN
We don't have anymore time!
                                                            
                       MELISSA
What's that sound!
                                                            
                       JOHN
I don't know! Wait! Look up in the
sky!
                                                            
Melissa and John both look up at the sky, only to see Raven
flying through the air on the motorcycle, he flies right
over the six foot stone walls of Grey Stoke. While he is air
born he begins to lay covering fire down for Melissa and
John, killing several of the mutants that were over whelming
them.
                                                            
                       JOHN
Holy shit! Who is this guy?!
                                                            
                       MELISSA
He's Raven, come on, he's cleared
the way!
                                                            
Just as Melissa and John make their way for the front door,
Raven lets go of the motorcycles handle bars and moves
backward as the motorcycle moves forward with out him. As it
begins to come back down to earth, he begins to fire his
twin AR13 semi assault rifles at the fuel tank of the
motorcycle, igniting the fuel inside and blowing the
motorcycle up and creating a massive fireball in the sky.
The remaining mutants are knocked down to the ground, as
Raven falls back to earth and makes his way to the front
door. By now Melissa and John have all ready made it inside.
                                                            

64.

INSIDE THE MANSION
                                                            
                       JOHN
Come on faster Melissa, they're
gaining on us!
                                                            
                       MELISSA
We are all most there!
                                                            
Melissa and John are running through the Mansion, trying to
make their way to the entrance of the lab, all the while
shooting any mutants that get in their way. They make their
way to the dinning room, John over turns the table and tries
to open the trap door that leds to the under ground tunnel,
while Melissa lays down covering fire.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
I hope Ravens ok!
                                                            
                       JOHN
He's fine, it's us I'm more
concerned about right now! This
door is stuck!
                                                            
                       MELISSA
You better hurry up! I can't hold
these sons of bitches off forever!
                                                            
                       JOHN
Got it! Lets go!
                                                            
John has gotten the door open and proceeds to go inside but
just as he does too gun shots nearly hit him.
                                                            
                       JOHN
What the hell! Watch where your
shooting!
                                                            
                       MELISSA
It wasn't me! It was a mutant!
                                                            
Melissa shoots the mutant who fired the gun dead. and
proceeds to enter the tunnel herself.
                                                            
                       JOHN
What! That's not possible!
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Just get in there, we'll worry
about that later!
                                                            
The two hop into the tunnel and begin to run toward the

65.

entrance to the lab. Moments later they make it to the giant
steel door. Melissa lays down covering fire while John opens
the door.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Wait!
                                                            
                       JOHN
What!
                                                            
                       MELISSA
If we close the door, how is Raven
goning to make it inside?
                                                            
                       JOHN
I don't know, but we have to get
inside.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
No, we have to wait for him, we
wouldn't even be alive if it
wasn't for him.
                                                            
                       JOHN
And what if thousand mutants
coming pouring down that tunnel,
what then? We cannot let them get
into the lab.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Then we close the door and
continue on with the mission, but
we have to at least give him a
chance to make it, we owe him
that.
                                                            
                       JOHN
All right, all right, we wait..
                                                            
OUTSIDE THE MANSION
                                                            
Raven continues to battle the army of mutants outside,
trying to make his way into the mansion. There's another
wave of mutants coming from the left, Raven must think fast.
So he fires several grenades at the approaching mutants,
delaying them. Then he fire his weapon at the mutants near
the door and a grenade right at the entrance of the mansion,
partially collapsing it. He then makes his way for the
collapsed entrance and kills two remaining mutants by
throwing knives at their heads.
                                                            
 

66.

INT. INSIDE THE MANSION - NIGHT
                                                            
Once inside he moves through the house quickly, stabbing or
shooting any mutant in his way. As he rounds the corner of a
hallway that leds to the dinning room, he sees the giant
mutant standing in his way, holding a massive machine gun.
The giant mutant begins to fire at Raven, who takes cover
behind a wall.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Shit mutants with guns, why must
there all ways be a problem?
                                                            
Raven changes the clips for his grenade launcher and his
gun. As soon as the giant mutant stops firing, Raven jumps
out fires two grenade shots at the roof over the giant
mutant, causing it to fall down on him and block his path.
Then Raven makes his way to another hallway that leds him to
the dinning room, but he is being chased by several mutants.
Once in the dinning room he finds the door open, he jumps
down inside head first, rolls on the ground, pulls out twin
pistols and fires at the open door. The mutants following
him attempt to enter but are shot dead, Raven then toss two
grenades up through the whole, which explode causing a
distraction. Then he jumps to his feet and begins running
down the tunnel.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
What was that noise?
                                                            
                       JOHN
It sounded like gun fire and an
explosion in the distance.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
It's Raven, he's coming, get
ready, he might be bringing
company.
                                                            
Raven continues to run down the tunnel for the lab but he is
being followed by several mutants. As he gets closer to the
entrance Melissa and John can now see him.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
      (Points)
There he is!
                                                            
                       JOHN
And he is not alone!
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Close it!
                                                            

67.

                       MELISSA
What is he saying?
                                                            
                       JOHN
I think he is saying close it.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Close what? The door?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Close the door!
                                                            
Raven shouts for them to close the door, as he continues to
run toward them being chased by several mutants.
                                                            
                       JOHN
Is he insane? He will never make
it.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
That's what he want's, close it.
                                                            
                       JOHN
What? He'll never make it, we
would be signing his death
warrant.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Close it!
                                                            
John does as Melissa says and he hits the button to close
the door. The giant steel door begins to close as Raven is
still several feet away. John and Melissa do not believe he
will make it.
                                                            
                       JOHN
He's not going to make it.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
      (crosses her
       fingers)
Come on Raven, come on.
                                                            
Just as the door is about to close completely Raven makes a
flying leap toward the door, falls to the ground on his side
and begins to slide across the floor. With his free hand, he
begins to fire his pistol at the persuing mutants. As the
door is about to close he slides in, just seconds before it
is closed but one of the persuing mutants grabs his leg and
begins to pull him out, so he shoots part of the mutants arm
off, just as the door closed completely.
                                                            
 

68.

INT. THE LABRATORY - NIGHT
                                                            
Raven is lying on the floor with his smoking gun still in
hand, as Melissa and John just stand there and look at him.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Glad to see you made it.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Yeah right..
      (GETS UP)
Are you guys ok?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Yes I'm fine, how about you John?
                                                            
                       JOHN
I'm doing great considering, so
what now?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
We find doctor Kyle and the others
and the syrum, they're here
somewhere.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
How much time do we have left?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
About an hour and half, which
means we need to get moving.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Ok the main research facility is
straight down the hall, they would
most likely be there.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
All right, led the way.
                                                            
The three of them walk down the hall to the main research
facility to find the others trapped inside. When they reach
the main facility, they find the others huttled inside.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Doctor Levry, it's me Melissa!
                                                            
                       KYLE
Melissa is that you?
                                                            
Doctor Levry rises up from behind a table to see Melissa, he
is followed by the others.
                                                            

69.

                       MELISSA
Glad to see you all are alive.
                                                            
                       KYLE
Melissa it is you, John you made
it aswell.
                                                            
                       JOHN
Barely yes, good to see you old
friend, all of you. May Ling,
Jesse, Ryan.
                                                            
                       KYLE
Who is this?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
This is Raven.
                                                            
                       JOHN
We owe him our lives, he is here
to get us all out of here.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Doctor Levry, I understand you
have a serum that can stop people
from being infected.
                                                            
                       LING
Yes we do, we only have a small
quantity left.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Enough to replicate into mass
quantities?
                                                            
                       RYAN
Yes just barely enough, it can be
replicated but not at a very quick
rate I'm afraid.
                                                            
                       KYLE
Yes Doctor Ryan is correct, we can
replicate the serum at a rate of
one thousand vials per every
forteen days.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
That's just not good enough, we
need massive quantities of the
serum and now. Just incase this
virus has spread beyond this town.
                                                            

70.

                       LING
Highly unlikely, due to the fact
that it is a air borne virus and
the wind conditions on said day,
there is a very small chance it
would have been spread beyond this
town.
                                                            
                       RYAN
That is before the great barrior
was erected and destroyed any
chance of that.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
I don't care what the odds are,
you guys have been wrong before
and could be now.
                                                            
                       KYLE
What do you mean by that?
                                                            
                       JOHN
The mutant have shown signs of
inteligence and independent
thought.
                                                            
                       RYAN
That just isn't possible, all
preliminary test showed no signs
of inteligence or independent
thought.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
We've seen it first hand, they set
a trap for us earlier.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Not to mention the fact that they
have enough brains to fire a
machine gun.
                                                            
                       LING
This is a most interesting
revolation. We must study this
further.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
We don't have time for that right
now, we have a small army of
mutants outside that door, trying
to get in, not to mention that in
about an hour this place will be a
parking lot.
                                                            

71.

                       KYLE
What do you mean?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
The Air Force is going to bomb the
hell out if this place, to stop
the virus from spreading. Not only
killing the virus but everyone in
the town aswell, including us.
                                                            
                       JOHN
That is why we need to get out of
here now, we need the serum.
                                                            
                       KYLE
Really, but just how do you
propose to escape? By your own
admission there is an army
outside.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
We have a plan, all we need is the
serum.
                                                            
                       LING
Yes we can have it ready...
                                                            
                       KYLE
We can have it ready in about a
half hour. I must prepare the
serum for transport.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Fine, get started, we need to get
going as soon as possible.
                                                            
                       KYLE
I will get started right now.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Good, do you guys have a restroom
here?
                                                            
                       JOHN
Yes,back down the hall, it's on
your right hand side.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Thanks alot John, just get that
syrum ready to go. I'll be back in
a few minutes.
      (Walks off)
                                                            

72.

                       KYLE
I ah must get to work right away.
      (Walks off into
       the other room)
                                                            
The others remain in the room talking amoungst themselves.
Raven has gone to relieve himself in the restroom. After he
wonders through the labratory and wonders into research type
room. The room is filled with computers and research
equipment. Raven has a seat at one of the terminals and logs
onto the computer. He sees several files on the computer all
with code names as titles. He clicks on one that says
asteriod broken arrow. As he reads and studies the diagrams
inside the file he learns about the asteriod that slammed
into the earth carrying the virus.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
This can't be possible, that can't
be right.
                                                            
As Raven studies the data more and more, Melissa walks into
the room, looking for him.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Hey what are you doing in here?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
I'm just looking at this data
about the asteriod that carried
the virus. But if this information
is correct, then there's something
that is not right here.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
What do you mean?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Well look at this data, the path
of the asteriod was no where near
that of the Earth. It was on a
parallel course with Earth. Fifty
six thousand kilometers away. Then
suddenly it shifted one hundred
and twenty degrees to the right,
which put it on a collision course
with us. But there is no reason
for the change.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
That's odd, I don't understand why
either. There must be some reason
for the change in course.
Asteriods float through space and
            (MORE)

73.

                       MELISSA (cont'd)
change direction all the time but
not like that and not so suddenly.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
There has to be some kind of
concrete reason why.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Yes but this data is also three
years old and hasn't been examined
or looked at since.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
So three years ago that asteriod
hit Earth?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
That's right..
                                                            
                       RAVEN
How soon after the impact did you
learn of the virus?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
I believe a few weeks afterward, a
patient was brought into the local
hospital infected with the virus
but it was the only case reported,
so we knew that it hadn't spread.
That's when we constructed the
research facility and began
studying it.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
I assume since the asteriod was
not large enough to pose a threat
to Global security it was not
destroyed? That it was assumed
that it would just burn up in our
atmosphere.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
I would assume so yes.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
So why didn't it? It wasn't that
large to pose a threat and should
have burned up. But the question
is why didn't it? Why did it
suddenly change course?
                                                            
                       MELISSA
I don't know?
                                                            

74.

                       RAVEN
This just dosn't add up at all.
This all happened about the time
that I was created.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
I don't know too much about how
you were created or even for that
matter who created you?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
I was created two and half years
ago from some new program that was
developed by some genticist.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Yes project Hynds Blood, I read
something about it in a medical
journal. I guess the military
adapted it for their own purposes.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Yeah my muscle fibers were altered
to increase my strength three
times that of a normal man, joints
were also enhanced aswell to give
better ajility in conjuction with
my muscles. My senses were also
increased to three times that of a
normal human. Even my ability to
heal was enhanced.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
They turned you into a super
soldier, a living weapon you could
say.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Yeah the first of my kind, there
were supposed to be an army of
super soldiers created.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Were there? Were there anymore of
you created?
                                                            

75.

                       RAVEN
I don't know, I can't remember. My
memory was blocked out some how,
so that I would remember anything
about my past. So that I could be
dead to the world in all intents
and purposes. I would only exist
unofficially.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
If you can't remember your past,
you want have any desire to return
to you former life. Because if it
ever got out who you really were,
your family would be in danger. So
they must have told them you died
or went missing, to keep them from
searching for you.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Yeah I guess so, they set me with
a fony identity and life but none
of it's real. When I'm not need I
blend in with society, until I am
recalled for some mission to save
the world.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Wow talk about unanswered
questions, your life is an
unanswered question.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
We need to find out why the
asteriod changed course and didn't
simply burn up in the atmosphere
like it was suppose to.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
But how?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
I don't know, but it will have to
wait until be complete this
mission and get the syrum out of
here. We are all most out of time,
the syrum should be ready by now.
Let's find doctor Levry and get
out of here.
                                                            
Raven and Melissa leave the room and rejoin the others in
the labratory. The others are just standing around waiting
for doctor Levry to return.
                                                            

76.

                       RAVEN
Wheres Levry? We need to get
moving.
                                                            
                       JOHN
Yes he should have been back along
time ago.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
I wonder what happened to him?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Well in any event we have to find
him right away, out time is
running out.
                                                            
Just then an alarm sounds throughout the labratory.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
What's that sound mean?
                                                            
                       JOHN
It's a perimeter alert...
      (Goes over to a
       Computer Terminal)
Accourding to this the main door
to the lab has been opened.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
What!!
                                                            
                       MELISSA
      (Scared)
That's not possible.
                                                            
                       JOHN
      (Investagating)
It shouldn't be, the only way to
open the door now is by the
passcode. But we are the only ones
who know the code. What the hell
is going on?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
What did you find out?
                                                            
                       JOHN
      (Concerned)
Accourding to the security system
the door was opened using doctor
Kyle Levry's access code.
                                                            

77.

                       RAVEN
      (Angry)
Fuck, well we know now where that
son of a bitch has been, Damn.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
      (Confused)
That's not possible he would never
betray us like that.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
It sure as hell looks that way.We
can't worry about that now. We
probably have twelve dozen mutants
pooring in here now.
                                                            
                       JOHN
What are we going to do?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
I don't know let me think for a
second.
                                                            
                       JESSE
We don't have a second, we need a
plan and fast.
                                                            
                       LING
We don't have any other choice but
to flee. We must get out of here
before they bomb this place into
oblivian.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Ok heres what we are going to do,
you guys head for the escape
tunnel, wait for me for about ten
minutes, if I'm not there by then
or you start to become over runned
by mutants, then close the door
and get out. But first arm
yourselves, I'm going to find
doctor Levry and get that syrum or
die trying.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
      (Worried)
You can't, you'll be killed.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
I don't have a choice, to many
people are depending on me. If
this virus should spread to the
            (MORE)

                       RAVEN (cont'd)
rest of the world somehow, I could
never forgive myself, knowing that
I could have stopped it and
didn't.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
But Raven...
                                                            
                       RAVEN
I'm sorry Melissa, you guys get
going, we don't have much time.
                                                            
                       JOHN
Understood, come guys we need to
get going.
                                                            
John, Jesse, Ling and Ryan all arm themselves and then head
for the escape tunnel. Melissa stays behind to speak with
Raven.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
I coming with you.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
No you're not, I have to do this
alone. I am expendable, you're
not. If I fail, the world is going
to need all of you to duplicate
the syrum, if at all possible. As
for me I'm just a soldier, a lone
gunman, nothing more nothing less.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
But you're not expendable, you a
human being to, your life matters
as much as mine.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Yeah it's a dirty job but someone
has to do it. I need to know that
your safe with the others, please
go with them and forget you ever
knew me.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Ok, I'll do as you ask. Huh you
know, you never told me your real
name.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Logan, Miles Logan..
                                                            

79.

                       MELISSA
Well be carefull Miles Logan, come
back us in one piece. Good luck.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Same to you Melissa, I'll see you
again.
                                                            
They both go their seperate ways but as they both walk away
they turn to look at one another in the eye and then
continue on. Raven moves through the labratory like a
stealth soldier, not be scene or heard. He hasn't
encountered any mutants yet. Just as he is about to continue
on he gets a strange message over his communication system.
                                                            
                       VOICE (VO)
      (Staticky)
Raven is this you?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Who is this? How did you get this
frequnecy?
                                                            
                       VOICE (VO)
We don't have time for
plesentries, you must stop him.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Stop who? What are you talking
about? You're wasting my time.
                                                            
                       VOICE (VO)
Shut up and listen Raven, you must
stop General Hopkins.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
General Hopkins, Why?
                                                            
                       VOICE (VO)
They plan to spread the virus, you
must stop them.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
The General plans to spread the
virus?
                                                            
                       VOICE (VO)
No you fool, doctor Levry, he and
the other mutants have turned the
virus into a biological weapon.
That they will detonate when the
bombardment begins. When they bomb

virus due to the weapon and not
destroy it. You must stop them
from bombing the town or the world
will be doomed.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
The device they were carrying out
of the clinic, it was a weapon of
some kind, damn. So instead of
destroying the virus, we will be
spreading it.
                                                            
                       VOICE (VO)
Yes that is correct, you must act
quickly Raven, you time has all
but run out.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Wait I....
                                                            
The transmission is interupted by General Hanson breaking in
on the frequency.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Damn, are you there, who ever you
are, are you still there?
                                                            
                       GENERAL (VO)
      (Staticky)
Yes I'm.... Raven.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
General I can barely here you,
you're breaking up. Listen you
have to call off the Bombardment
right away.
                                                            
                       GENERAL (VO)
Thirty minutes.... begins, get....
now.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
I know there's only thrity minutes
left, but I can't leave, I don't
have the vaccine yet. But you have
to stop those bombers General,
please stop them now!
                                                            
Just as Raven said that, the transmission was cut off.
                                                            

81.

                       RAVEN
General, General! Are you there!
Damn, lost the signal. I hope he
heard me, shit. What now?
                                                            
Just then Raven hears several mutants heading his way, so he
takes cover behind table. He loads and cocks his guns,
waiting to ambush them. As the mutnats enter the room, they
begin to search the room. There are four of them with their
backs to him, he slowly rises up from behind the table.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Hey dumb shit over here!
                                                            
As the mutants turn around to see who said it, Raven shots
two of them dead, they fall back after being shot and hit
the table behind them, breaking beckers and test tubes. The
other two lunge forwardat Raven, he throws two knives at
them, hitting them in their necks, killing them.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Take that you bastards.
                                                            
More and more mutants come pouring into the room, as Raven
shots them as they do. But he is starting to become over
runned and has to get moving. So he tosses a grenade at the
mutants, when it explodes, it kills several of them and
clears a path for him. He walks through the dead bodies out
into the hallway, which is filled with mutants.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Damn there sure is alot of you,
isn't there.
                                                            
Raven and the mutants just stand there at odds staring at
one another. In the back ground Raven sees the Giant Mutant
from the clinic watching him.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Well what the hell are you waiting
for!! Let's get this over with!!
                                                            
Raven shouts at the mutant army facing him. As he stands
ready with his gun loaded and cocked, ready to fight.
                                                            
                       GIANT MUTANT
Take him!!
                                                            
As the giant mutant commands them, they begin to rush Raven.
He fires his gun into the crowd of on coming mutants,
killing several of them but their are too many. They are
getting closer, so he begins to fight them hand to hand.

82.

Stabing and breaking several of their necks but they are too
much for him. As he is about to fall, he heres a voice shout
from behind him.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Hey ass holes, over here!!
                                                            
Raven picks his head up from the ground to look at who it
was that called out. He sees Melissa Standing behind him,
holding a gun. She begins to fire her weapon at the mutants
surrounding Raven, killing several of them, enough for him
to get up from the ground and begin to dispose of them.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Get out of here!!
                                                            
                       MELISSA
I won't leave you!!
                                                            
                       RAVEN
You'll be killed!!
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Then at least I'll die for
something I believe in!!
                                                            
They shout to eachother as she continues to shoot and he
continues to engage them hand to hand. Slowly the Giant
Mutant begins to move forward toward Raven, at his side is a
small vile clipped to his belt. He rushes Raven and they
begin to fight. He overwhelms Raven with his strength, wich
even surpasses Ravens. Ravens blows prove to be invane, as
they have no effect of him. Raven is knocked to the ground,
as the Giant Mutant moves in for the final blow, he is
distracted.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Hey over here!!
                                                            
Melissa shouts as the Giant Mutant turns his head toward
her. As he does she fires a grenade at him, striking him in
the chest and sending him flying back several feet.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
Raven come on! Get up Raven, come
on get up!
                                                            
Raven slowly rises to his feet and begins to walk toward
Melissa. Suddenly he pulls out two long bladed knives, turns
and runs toward the Giant Mutant, who is now on his feet.
Raven runs toward him and then leaps into the air, with the
knives in hand, he stabs the Giant Mutant with them in his
chest. As the Giant Mutant falls to the ground, Raven grabs
the vile from his side and runs toward Melissa.
                                                            

83.

                       MELISSA
Come on Raven! Hurry!
                                                            
As Raven heads toward her, she shoots any mutants that get
in his way. Moments later he reaches her and the two make
their way toward the escape tunnel. As they do Raven
activates C4 charges he had planted to stop anyone from
following them to the escape tunnel. They now only have
fifthteen seconds to get to the tunnel before the charges go
off. They can see the others waiting for them at the
entrance.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
We're all most there.
                                                            
                       MELISSA
We're going to make it.
                                                            
Just then Melissa falls to the ground face first. Her feet
have been tied together with a rope and she is being pulled
back in the other direction by the Giant Mutant. Raven
notices this and starts to go back to rescue her but as he
does the charges go off collapsing the walls and roof of the
hallway, blocking his way from getting to her. Just before
the depris fell, she looked up at him with a terrified look
on her face and uttered the words "I love" to him as she was
being pulled back.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Melissa!!
                                                            
Raven immediately goes back for her and attempts to dig
through the rubble but with little success. The others go to
him and try to get him to leave.
                                                            
                       JOHN
Come on Raven, we have to go,
she's gone, you can't help her
now.
                                                            
                       JESSE
He's right, we need to go, we have
to get the vaccine out of here,
come on.
                                                            
John and Jesse grab him and pull him away from the rubble.
                                                            
 
INT. THE TUNNEL - DAY
                                                            
They pull him into the escape tunnel and they all continue
on down the long dark tunnel to freedom. As he walks down

84.

the tunnel Raven has memories of when he and Melissa first
met in the diner, memories of them battling the mutants in
the jeep, memories of them talking at the gas station and
memories of the last time he saw her with that terrified
look on her face.
                                                            
                       JOHN
She didn't die for nothing Raven,
she died to save others, she died
for what she believed in.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Yeah well that all that shit
sounds nice but it not going to
bring her back and it sure as hell
dosn't ease the pain I feel.
                                                            
                       JOHN
Nothing anyone can do or say will
ease your pain, only time will do
that my friend.
                                                            
As they walk through the long tunnel, it begins to shake
violiently, to the point of near collapse. They can hear
explosions and gunfire coming from the surface.
                                                            
                       RYAN
It's started, the bombing has
begun.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Damn, I guess the General didn't
get my message after all.
                                                            
                       JOHN
What message?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
When I went looking for doctor
Levry, someone broke into my comm.
system and told me that the
mutants had turned the virus into
a biological weapon and that by
bomb the town it would only spread
the virus.
                                                            
                       JOHN
Is that what you seen them
carrying out of the clinic?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Yeah it was.
                                                            

85.

                       JOHN
Who is this person that told you
this?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
I don't know, I didn't exactly
have time to get his name and
address.
                                                            
                       JESSE
So we could be walking into an
entire State of infected people.
                                                            
                       LING
Perhaps even worse, this is truely
the apocalypse of mankind.
                                                            
                       RYAN
The end of the world of man as we
know it.
                                                            
                       LING
Where will we turn for salvation,
for absolution of our sins.
                                                            
                       JOHN
Do you believe in the all mighty
Raven?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
What I believe dosn't matter, all
that matters is what happens in
the here and now. And right now we
don't know what we are walking
into but what ever it is, we need
to be ready.
                                                            
                       RYAN
We've reached the end of the
tunnel.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
All everyone ready?
                                                            
They all look at one another in the eye and then nod their
heads to signal their readiness.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
All right everyone lock and load,
we don't know what's up there
waiting for us. It could be ten
dozens mutants for all we know.
                                                            

86.

                       RYAN
May god have mercy on all our
souls, even yours Mr. Raven.
                                                            
                       RAVEN
Yeah well, what ever, I'll go
first, the rest of you follow me.
                                                            
They all stopped in front of a yellow metal ladder at the
end of the tunnel, that extends upwards to a metal hatch,
that leds to the surface. Raven is the first one to climb up
the ladder followed by Johnathon, Ryan, Ling and Jesse. Once
he reaches the top, Raven opens the hatch and climbs out.
The other s follow him up the ladder out to the surface.
                                                            
 
INT. THE SURFACE- THE TOWN - DAY
                                                            
                       JOHN
Unbelievable...
                                                            
                       LING
The unspeakbale horror of man.
                                                            
                       RYAN
I have no words for this.
                                                            
As they reach the surface they see the entire town has been
leveled, completely destroyed and mutant bodies and body
parts littering the ground all around them. It is total
devistation and destruction, they have never seen anything
like it before. As they take in all that has happened, they
see movement in the distance.
                                                            
                       JOHN
Do you see that? Over there in the
distance.
                                                            
                       JESSE
Yes I see it, but what is it?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
It's mutants, they're mutants and
their coming towards us.
                                                            
                       JOHN
What do we do now?
                                                            
                       RAVEN
We fight.
                                                            
                       JOHN
We are surrounded.
                                                            

87.

As the group stands there with their weapons in hand and
their minds in shock, several dozen Mutants move toward
them. Moments later several dozen, turn into several hundred
and before long they are completely surround by mutants in
the middle of a town that has been turn into a war zone.
                                                            
 
INT. SOMEWHERE FAR AWAY - DAY
                                                            
Out in the middle of nowhere in the forest, one man waits in
a clearing as a helicopter lands and another man gets out.
The man walks up to the other man and they begin to talk as
they walk through the forest together.
                                                            
                       MAN ONE
Glad to see you made sir.
                                                            
                       MAN TWO
I all most didn't.
                                                            
                       MAN ONE
I heard about what happened in
North Folk. Not accourding to plan
but still with in acceptable
loses.
                                                            
                       MAN TWO
Yes, not what we had hoped but
still not a total lose.
                                                            
                       MAN ONE
Will he and the others be a
problem?
                                                            
                       MAN TWO
No, they won't be a problem at
all.
                                                            
                       MAN ONE
But he has seen it?
                                                            
                       MAN TWO
But what has he seen really, a
town full of mutated people, a
virus that now has an antibody for
it. Of the whole, he has only seen
pieces.
                                                            
                       MAN ONE
What if he decides to persue this,
to find answers?
                                                            

88.

                       MAN TWO
Then he shall be dealt with, but
we must now look to the future and
forget the past. Our vision is all
most realized and our goal all
most achieved. Not he or anyone
else can stop us now.
                                                            
                       MAN ONE
Yes sir, no one can stop us now.
                                                            
As the two men contiue to walk, they approach a large
building out in the forest. Behind the two men are to other
men carrying a stretcher with something on top of it covered
with a white sheet. All of them go inside the large building
together.
                                                            
 
INT. SPACE - DAY
                                                            
                       NARRATOR
History will record the apocalypse
of mankind all began in the small
town of North Folk Virgina, when a
raging asteriod carrying a deadly
virus slammed into Earth. Can
mankind be saved? What will be the
price for the salvation of us all?
And who will save us from our
worst enemy? That is who will save
us from ourselves?
                                                            
The camara fades out through the forest, through the city,
up through the clouds and on into space. It shows Earth in
space and then focuses in on a nearby asteriod traveling
through space.
                                                            


FADE OUT.

That's not bad.Not bad at all you've got something here.I must say that I really liked it.

From Steven R. Scheer Date 3/20/2006 **
I didn't read your story, but just thought I should give you a little advice if you want your screenplay to be taken seriously. 1. - DON'T USE CAPITOL LETTERS THROUGH THE WHOLE SCREENPLAY. and 2. - Don't mispell the very first word in the script. (labritory should be laboratory) If you do things like that, very few people are going to take it seriously if it's that unprofessional.

From warren williams Date 3/19/2006 *
This screenplay looked like it was rushed and it had a lot of plot holes you should think the story out more.

From Glenn Date 3/19/2006 ***1/2
No need to write it all in capitals. But it was a great story. Again it needs my pages 39 is way to short. But its heading for a great story, keep up the great work
