FADE IN:

EXT. ROAD - DAY. IN THE CAR.

A man in his forties drives through the woods. He has a thick sleekly hair type, round face, thin lips and 6'0 tall. He has a well built stack muscle that shows through his short sleeve round neck shirt. He Catches a glimpse of a shadow few inches to his moving truck.

CHARLES:

Did...you see that?

He hits the break hard. Tires screeched loudly. Car stops . He Looks at his wife in the passenger's seat confused.

LORI:

What??

She stares at him confused. Waits for his reply. He is stunned and he swallowed. Lori removes her seat belt. Tries to Sit comfortable. Afraid. Both distracted by the crackling sound of the radio (not turned on but turns on itself).

RADIO:

…citizens should be careful, preferably sty in doors as there have been umpteen reports here in Clifton city. Investigators have brought to notice. These murders are not normal. I mean it has been concluded that they are not done by human beings. Just as you have to watch out for a girl if not an adult in a cloak. We believe she is the culprit in this murder cases, she has been confirmed to have this supernatural powers that could kill people in seconds...

The radio buzzes loses connection. Both looks at each other and swallowed. Overwhelm with fear. Charles being a detective tries to be a man. Composes his self.

CHARLES:

Don't worry, I'm here. Everything is fine.

He fondles her face. Smiles at Lori and lets go of her.

CHARLES:

I will be back soon okay?

He gets out of his truck. Lori tries to hold him back but loses his grip. Tries to persuade him.

LORI:

Let's just leave. It's too dangerous. Charles! Lets go!

He ignores, gets out of the truck and shuts the door. Heads towards the woods. His heart beating fast. Dry leaves rustles under his feet as his takes his steps. He pulls out his gun from his holster. Lunches forward.

He freezes upon catching a glimpse of a shadow moving in the woods. A 5 foot 9 inches human figure in cloak moving very fast towards him. Face covered. Unknown. Charles sees this, ran back fast to his truck. Gets in and starts the engine. Zooms off, panting and shivering. We can see his wife doesn't have any idea about what going on, she is confused.

Charles wipes his sweaty forehead with his arms. Lori looks out of the window. Saw something running after the truck.

LORI (SCREAMS

What in the world is that?

He looks at the rear-view mirror. Sees the figure running behind the truck. Charles applies more pressure on accelerator, drives fast. Checks the mirror repeatedly.

LORI:

We're so screwed! Charles drive fast!!

Lori puts on her seat belt. Holds on to the roof handle.

CHARLES:

F***! I'm trying!!!

Figure loses track with them. Charles sighs. They drive down to the city full with people.

Cars stops in front of a house. Both gets down from the truck and shuts the door. Lori stops and turns to her husband. Holds onto her back. We can see her big baby pump. She is in her last week of pregnancy. She seems to feel pains. She feels weak. Lori fondles her pump.

LORI:

What did you see out there Charles?

Steps closer to him

CHARLES:

It's nothing honey, some cat freaked me out.

LORI:

That wasn't a cat. It a freaking human! Don't lie to me. I saw it with my own eyes.

He doesn't want her to worry given her condition. His phone buzzes. He checks his phone, saw a call from his colleague and looks at his wife.

CHARLES:

Go on in, I will join you in a moment.

Lori nods and walks in. Charles composes himself and swipe to pick the call.

CALLER:

Detective Charles, we just spotted the location of the suspect. It is in your house...

Suspect jumps over a fence heading towards Charles who is on the phone facing another direction.

CALLER:

You must evacuate....

(phone buzzes)

I repeat you must evacuate!!

Charles confused.

CHARLES:

Wait! What?

Charles feels something behind him. He was shivering. Turns back slowly. See a figure in cloak. His heart beats faster. His gaze up slowly to a young cute face that smiles at him. He screams softly, stepping back a little. We see an 18 year old girl with curly tangled hair in a cloak. She looks lost. Body covered in dirt.

CHARLES:

Who are you?
