TASK TWELVE: Script


MISSING

FADE IN:

EXT. FORREST – EVENING 

KATE PARKES, 17-year-old, brunette wearing all black- dress, tights, leather jacket and converse trainers. She is breathing heavily, her breath quivering as she runs frantically through the Forrest away from an unknown character who is potentially dangerous.

As she stops trying to regain her breath, she becomes dazed and her vision is blurred. Erratically, she quickly turns her head from left to right trying to evaluate her surroundings. Her body weakens and she collapses on the floor.

Beginning to gain consciousness, KATE realises she is being dragged through the Forrest and tries to squirm from ‘its’ grip whilst screaming. Her screams fade into next scene.

INT. CLAIRE’S HOUSE, LIVING ROOM – EVENING (FLASHBACK 2 YEARS LATER)

CLAIRE JOHNSON, 17-year-old, brunette is lounging on the sofa watching a horror movie.

The scream from the movie frightens CLAIRE and she turns the TV off,  she then resumes texting her friends on her phone. 


TEXT MESSAGE FROM SOPHIE
-- Hey! Can you FaceTime? --

TEXT MESSAGE TO SOPHIE
 -- Hiya! Sorry, can I FaceTime later? I'm about to walk the dog, my mum will kill me if I don't. --


After doing so, she puts on her shoes and coat and takes the dog, RAVEN,  for the walk.

EXT. FORREST – EVENING

CLAIRE is leisurely walking her dog through the Forrest. Her phone notifies her of a text. She stops and reaches into her back pocket and takes it out. The message is from UNKNOWN.

TEXT MESSAGE FROM UNKNOWN
-- Can you see me? --

CLAIRE reads the message and is puzzled by the authenticity of the text but continues to walk RAVEN.

A loud cracking noise is heard and CLAIRE freezes in place. As she lifts up her foot, a watch is revealed. CLAIRE bends down and picks it up, as she inspects the condition of the watch she realises that this is KATE’S watch. She pulls out her phone and a picture of CLAIRE and KATE shows KATE with the watch on. Perplexed and disorientated CLAIRE does not realise that RAVEN has run off. Frantically she runs through the Forrest, chasing after RAVEN.

CLAIRE
-- Raven! Raven! --

EXT. FORREST – NIGHT

Still running, CLAIRE comes across KATE whose erratic behaviour is disturbing. At first she is unrecognisable her scruffy appearance and behaviour is different to that of what CLAIRE remembers. CLAIRE wearily approaches KATE. KATE is shaking, hitting herself and muttering under her breath.

CLAIRE
-- Are you okay? Hello? --

KATE
-- You never wanted to help me. --

CLAIRE
-- Kate. Its been two years --

KATE
-- (violently grabs her) You stupid bitch. --

CLAIRE
-- Kate! --

KATE
-- You never cared about me. --

CLAIRE
-- Kate please listen to me. --

KATE’S behaviour escalates. She becomes hysterical and vengeful.

CLAIRE
-- Get off me. --

Frightened CLAIRE starts running away.
As the voice gets louder KATE becomes violent, hitting herself and shouting



KATE
-- Stop. This is all her fault --

CLAIRE screams when she sees DYLAN, HER BROTHER, lifeless. His body is hanging from a belt.
