CUT TO:
EXT. DAY- RAINING
INT. A LONE POOL HALL
Cassie walks to the pool hall, wearing her gray hoodie over her head, dazed with emotion. She comes inside and sits close to the window.
From afar, WADE(17), Katrina's adoptive brother, a tall, lanky boy with curly black hair with strange but defined features, is sitting at a round table smoking with his stoner friends. He notices Cassie sitting alone by the window. He gives off a mean look, feeling confused of why she's there. He walks up to her. Then Wade agressively slams his hand on the table and looks at Cassie, dead in the face.

WADE(threateningly)

What are you doing here?

CASSIE(takes off her hoodie)

Just sitting here. Why?

WADE

Nobody asked you to come here.

Cassie looks at the table where Wade's stoner friends are snickering.
　

CASSIE(defiant)

I can sit anywhere I damn please

WADE

Well, this is my territory. And I rather you leave

CASSIE

This is bogus. Is this about your sister, Wade? Because you're acting really idiotic right now.

WADE

You take my word for it. I have my own reasons of not liking you.

CASSIE

You didn't even really know me.

WADE

Would I need to know your life story?

Cassie grabs Wade's hand.

CASSIE(Threatingly)

Wade....get out of my face

Cassie pushes him away and goes towards the door.

WADE(taunting)

Don't come back here!

CASSIE

Screw you!

Cassie flips her hoodie on and walks deep into the smoky street.
　
INT. DANIELLE'S HOUSE-LIVING ROOM
Danielle is sitting in the dining room, reading a dictionary while her boyfriend, JEFF(18), a handsome, athletic boy with an edge to him, is watching t.v.

DANIELLE(annoyed)

Jeff, would you pay attention

JEFF

Oh....Sorry

DANIELLE

I know you feel nervous about the exams but we really gotta get on point with things

JEFF(coming on to her)

Why are getting all serious?

DANIELLE

It's just that I've been studying a lot this week

JEFF(sauve)

Maybe you should take a break

Jeff kisses Danielle hard, going into a deep, passionate make-out session.

DANIELLE(giggles)

Jeff, stop

The phone rings suddenly. Danielle hastily jumps up and grabs it on the table.

DANIELLE

Hello?

CUT TO:
CASSIE'S HOUSE-BEDROOM
Cassie is laying on the bed, staring at the ceiling, her mind racing with thoughts.

CASSIE(softly)

Hey Dani

CUT BACK TO:
DANIELLE'S HOUSE- LIVING ROOM

DANIELLE

Hey Cass, what's up?

CUT TO:

CASSIE'S HOUSE-BEDROOM
Cassie turns over to the bed, letting her emotions sink out.

CASSIE

Everything's okay. I hope I'm not interrupting something.

CUT BACK TO:
DANIELLE'S HOUSE-LIVING ROOM

DANIELLE(sorting out papers)

Oh no, I'm just really busy with studying...Jeff saw what happened at the pool hall.

　

CUT TO:
CASSIE'S HOUSE-BEDROOM

CASSIE

Hey, it's not a big deal. Katrina goes out all her way just to prove she hates me.

　

CUT BACK TO:

DANIELLE

She's just upset that's all. All of this will pass through.

CASSIE(other end)

Well.....I just wanted to hear your voice

DANIELLE

I know you did. I'm always here for you, Cassie. I'll keep in touch.

CUT TO:
CASSIE'S HOUSE- BEDROOM

CASSIE

Yeah okay. Talk to you later.

Cassie hangs up the phone and buries her head under the pillow.
CUT BACK TO:
DANIELLE'S HOUSE-LIVING ROOM
Danielle hangs up the phone, heavily thinking in thought.

JEFF

Is she okay?

DANIELLE

She's just going through a lot, lately. It'll be best if I'll tell you, later.

Jeff softly strokes Danielle's back.

JEFF(comforting)

She's going to be fine

DANIELLE

(sighs) I just don't want this thing to blow out of proportion.

CUT TO:
EXT. RAINING
INT. ABANDONED HOUSE
Wade and one of his stoner friend, JACOB, a stocky boy with long, messy hair, are walking around in a deserted neighborhood, apart from the rest of the town. It is known as a hangout spot for the kids where there are at least six broken-down houses down the road and through the woods, there is a closed-down warehouse. The two boy go towards the 2nd house of the three on the other side. Jacob stuffs a bong in his jacket and looks around as he enter the house.

JACOB

You sure there's no one on the lookout?

WADE

Come on man, this place is rigged. People barely go by this road.

The two boys enter inside, feeling the dusty atmosphere. Wade comfortably plops on the couch and lights up his bong.

WADE

The right kind of place to light my bong

JACOB(holds his nose)

Ugh, this place smells like shit.

WADE

That's the smell of comfort, my friend. (hands Jacob the bong) Wanna hit this?

The camera pans slowly to the left and outside of the house. Down the street, a black hooded figure is walking slowly in the rain. The figure stops and has it's eye on the second on the left row.
　
ABANDONED HOUSE-LIVING ROOM
Wade and Jacob is sitting on the couch, dazed with satisfaction from the armoa they smoked.

JACOB

Dude, where did you get this herb? I'm like blazin'.

WADE(zoned out, eyeing the bong)

The magic ingredients to this is kept secret, my man. (gets up from the couch, stumbles a bit)

I'm gonna go take a piss.

Wade goes off to the bathroom while Jacob sits back, blowing the smoke of his lungs.
Then a dark, looming shadow illuminates in front of Jacob, coming into full attention. Before he can react, the figure brutally slits his throat and rips it out with it's bare hands.
CUT TO:
ABANDONED HOUSE-BATHROOM
Wade checks himself out in the mirror, trying to see the red in his eyes. He turns on the sink and splashes water on his face, wiping the strong effect from the drug. The light blub suddenly flickers. Wade taps on it two times to keep the light steady. He focuses on the mirror and out comes behind....
The hooded figure with a baseball bat
CLOSE UP THE MYSTERIOUS FIGURE'S LIPS

HOODED FIGURE(soft female voice)

Hello, Joe.

Wade turns around and in a flash, the hooded figure whacks his jaw with the metal baseball bat. Wade goes down hard, spitting out blood pieces of his teeth. He looks up, helplessly, his eyes watering with pain. The hooded figure towers over him and pulls off it's hoodie. It is revealed to be....CASSIE! She makes an evil grin.

WADE(slurring)

Please......

CASSIE(condescending)

You're so....weak. You can't even hold your own without your patheic buddies around. Now that was one strike. (kneels down) Let's see if you can take more.

Cassie stands up, aiming her baseball above Wade. His eyes widen with fear.

WADE(muffled)

NOOOO!

Cassie repeatedly strikes him, blood splattered from wall to wall. She drops the baseball bat on the floor and walks off.

CASSIE(non-chantly)

Well, that job's done

Cassie slowly comes out of the house and into the pouring rain, washing the blood off her. She closes her eyes in extacsy. She takes off her jacket and bathes off what's left of the blood.
