2. FADE IN:
EXT. WOODLAND AREA, PARK BENCH- MID AFTERNOON.
A young woman [JADA] is walking her dog [SADIE] on the usual
route that they go on.
JADA looks around with a subdued look on her face. She sights
an park bench and guides SADIE to it.
She bends down and takes the soft blue velvet lead off of er
harness.
Sadie bounds and leaps with excitement.
Jada picks up her bag with a sloppy movement knocking debris
off of the bench. One of the items creates a loud 'KLINK' and
Jada reaches for it.
Picking up the piece of FLINT she notices how SHARP the
jagged object is and begins to carve her name on the bench.
'ENGROSSED' in this art, she pulls the flint closer to her
face to get a look at it.
She then runs her thumb over the sharp edge testing its
capability.
Directly in her vision behind the flint the blue lead stands
out and she is back in reality.
Now alert, she panics as she can no longer see or hear Sadie.
EXT. A NARROW LANE NEXT TO A WOODS - MID AFTERNOON
Jada, feeling a PANICK ATTACK arising grabs the hairband off
of her wrist and stressfully whacks her clean, brushed hair
into a messy ball of knotted strands.
She rips her coat off and wipes the sweat off of her forehead
with it then swings it over her shoulder. She picks up her
bag and begins to run the direction of the muddy TRACKS on
the ground.
3. CALLING out the puppy's names, She can hardly strain her
voice out over the lump in her throat, the fear of losing
her.
The paw tracks end as there is a fork in the lane.
FLUSTERED Jada screams out Sadie's name. Tears are
welding up in her eyes, and instead of the
usual way they go, she takes the other
direction.
Bending over holding herself up only with her hands
on her knees, gasping for breath, she spots a
gate slightly ajar.
EXT. THE FORT - FOGGY, LATE AFTERNOON.
With a hopeful look on her face she enters expecting to see
her mischievous puppy there. Her face drops when se sees
no sign of Sadie.
The fog that is swallowing up the landscape thickens and
Jada's vision grows weaker and weaker, she takes her coat
from over her shoulder and wraps it around her.
The unknown, and fading light play on her mind and tease her
anxiety. She grows desperate and reaches for her phone. In
the top left corner of her phone she sees that there is NO
SIGNAL and she cannot contact anyone.
Jada HOLDS HER PHONE UP trying to achieve signal but receives
none. Again PANICKING the wind picks up and she runs to one
of the shelters to escape from the fog.
INT. SHELTER IN FORT - DUSK
Jada is sitting with her arms around her knees in the corner
of the shelter trying to keep warm. She takes the coat from
around her and places it over her knees cuddling the hood of
it.
There are strange noises heard, the howling wind and voices.
4. STARTLED, Jada is shocked to hear other people. She peaks
around the edge of the shelter but know one is there.
She uses the flash light on her phone and the battery runs
out. She lets out a huge sigh but before letting it get to
her she remembers the old oil lamp she saw with the light of
her phone.
Reaching into her coat pocket she pulls out the lighter and
tries lighting the lamp in the dark. She struggles with the
lighter but the determination pushes her though.
Once alight she uses it to keep warm and check out the fort.
A SHADOW steps towards her, she screams and tries to run but
TRIPS over her coat she left on the floor.
She hits her head on the wall and PASSES OUT. In doing so the
oil lamp SMASHES.
FADE OUT:
She is now dreaming after passing out.
FADE IN:
INT. SHELTER IN FORT - DUSK, CONTINUED
Now she is dreaming after passing out. Flashbacks of the
EVENTS of the day are scanned through fading in an out from
black between each one.
Jada rolls over uncomfortably in her sleep and lays one one
of the shards of glass waking her up, STARTLED.
It is the final straw and after her dramatic night she begins
to sob uncontrollably.
SADIE
Wimpers and squeaks.
Jada looks up, holds her hand to her head in pain but manages
to fight through it to stand up.
5. Sadie jumps and RUNS towards Jada knocking her back down.
A man then APPEARS.
He bends down to stroke Sadie and gives Jada a slight nod and
SMILE.
Jada timidly looks back up at him, smiles back.
Both persons hands stroking Sadie, their hands touch and they
both look at each other IMMEDIATELY.
Jada then nods politely, puts Sadie's blue lead on her and
starts to walk home in the light.
Her eyes FIXED on the man, holding the eye contact until he
is physically out of sight.
Sadie smiles as she walks close to her owner.
