NARRATOR (Ethan)

JOHNNY (Reagan)

TONYA (Haley)

STACY (Erin)

THE SCENE STARTS AT AN OPENING SHOT OF A TABLE. EVERYONE IS GATHERED AROUND THE TABLE ENJOYING THEIR LUNCH. NICHOLAS IS IN THE CENTER OF THE TABLE EATING SOUP.

NARRATOR

Here we have NICHOLAS enjoying some home made soup.

He takes a sip.

NICHOLAS

WHO IS THAT?

NARRATOR

I am the annoying Narrator narrating your life! He stops. He looks around.

NICHOLAS (to JOHNNY)

Do you hear that?

JOHNNY

Hear what?

NICHOLAS

That voice!

JOHNNY

I don’t hear any voice.

NARRATOR

Poor NICHOLAS is confused. As he is the only one that can hear me.

TONYA

There’s a lot of people talking in the lunch room.

(NICHOLAS’ Face becomes worried)

NARRATOR

He becomes wary of my presence!

NICHOLAS (to STACY)

Ok surely you can hear this

STACY

Are you okay?

TONYA

What’s going on with you?

NICHOLAS

Nothing! Can’t you hear that voice?

NARRATOR

Alas he has finally given into my ploy to corrupt his mind and infatuate the desire to be alone from the rest. He is alone. The rest of his mental state is holding on by a slight thread. His brain is but a grain of sand washed up on the shore by a sea of lava that is me. Attacking the one and only thing that keeps him sane. His intellect.

(Scene cuts to lunch with loud noises in background, NICHOLAS is freaking out while the others around him are eating lunch and enjoying their food like normal.)

(Scene cuts back to the NARRATOR talking to NICHOLAS)

NARRATOR

The main goal is to eliminate and terminate his remaining mind. I WILL CONQUER AND DESTROY EVERY LAST BIT OF HIM UNTIL HE IS NOTHING BUT MUSH.

NICHOLAS

I don’t feel so good.

(NICHOLAS passes out on the table, scene cuts to normal lunch with loud noises and such.)

JOHNNY (to passed out NICHOLAS)

Hey are you gonna eat that pizza?

(Silence)

JOHNNY

(He reaches to grab the slice of pizza and eat it)

Guess not.

(He eats the pizza slice)

TANYA (to STACY and JOHNNY)

Hey do you you guys want to go get some water?

STACY

Sure!

JOHNNY

I’m down.

(They grab their backpacks and get up and leave.)

(NICHOLAS is still there with his head on the table. The scene cuts the NICHOLAS waking up in a mysterious area. No one is around.)

NICHOLAS

Where am I?

NARRATOR (In physical form)

And so he awakes from his slumber. 12 Thousand years later in another time, another dimension. All his friends and loved ones dead, they are far long gone. Just a blank memory, a memory from the past. Or at least what’s left of the past. Now he spends eternity alone, with nothing but his thoughts. And a voice to keep him company.

NICHOLAS

Yeah I think I’ll just go back to sleep.
