Episode 1

Location:
HQ Research Center

Act One, Scene One

The camera shows a sleek structure of a building. The research center is beautifully made from metal inside. There are different rooms with metal doors that have unique passcodes, and each door is labelled a sector, carrying a number. The atmosphere here is cool. Camera focuses on sector 002, which is as quiet as other sectors.

Inside sector 002, there's a woman clad in a white lab coat and a young teenager with white hair, seated. Beside them is a glass protecting an in-built “mini mansion” created to hold patient Aliya. This mini-mansion is wonderful and flawless. The two are near the mini-mansion but on the orange line that indicates patient Aliya shouldn't pass to the red line since she suffers from a deadly virus capable of taking one's life by a touch.

The nurse in charge of Aliya’s check-ups is clad in a protective suit.

Nurse:
Open wide (She points a torchlight to Aliya’s mouth)

Aliya:
(Seated) Aaah. I think I have gingivitis.

Nurse:
Why?

Aliya:
Well, I keep feeling pain in my gum.

Nurse:
(Becomes serious all of a sudden) where… (With a serious facial expression, she writes on her note)

Aliya:
(Points in her mouth) Sometimes I feel I wouldn't come out of here, and be able to live like the rest humans someday. But I know it's good to think positive. ( Her voice hints a tad amount of sadness mixed with hope)

Nurse:
We’re trying our best and hope you'll be cured someday, Aliya.

Aliya:
I know. What if I did have gingivitis and something serious was to happen to me? Like I fainted. What would happen next?

Nurse:
(Dazed) You’d be taken care of, that's what. ( She doesn't act too worried) you're in a hospital.

Aliya:
Probably by a super smart male doctor? It could cause a heart attack.

Nurse:
(Takes in a deep breath and exhales) Gingivitis doesn't cause heart attacks. (She then reasons for a while before speaking) I see, you're asking for Dr. Ashton.

Aliya:
It's been ages since I saw him. It gets tiring just staying in this cell for long.

Nurse:
You should count yourself lucky (Aliya joins her simultaneously to say—)

Aliya and Nurse:
… for being alive.

Aliya:
I know.

Nurse:
It's not a cell. This is an opportunity to be alive.

Aliya:
(Displays emotions) I never come out from this cell unless someone else comes in putting on a bubble suit. (She’s angry but manages a mellow tone.) The only time I get to be in close proximity with someone is during my check-ups.

Nurse:
(The nurse shows pity. She sighs then lowers her voice tone.) Dr. Ashton is super busy with work in another facility. (She then jokes) Did his name slap your face? (She sees Aliya's blush)

Aliya:
(Covers her now-red cheeks) No. He's just very handsome.

Nurse:
I know. Everyone testifies to that. Aliya, maybe I'll inform him his Lil Favvy pet wants a visit so bad.

Aliya:
(Her heart rises to neck level but she conceals her excitement) But don't be too obvious with the request.

Nurse:
(Walking out) And I don't think you have gingivitis. But you can unless you go easy on the sugar. (She looks at Aliya, standing outside the metal door then the door slides shut)

Aliya has been in solitary confinement for a decade but the merit here is that she has access to her own indoor mini-mansion.

Aliya’s Thoughts : Her Voice In Her Head

(She lies on her bed in her isolated room. In her hand is a tab, she types she wants candy and it comes rolling in through a tube.)

I've been here for as long as I can remember. (Dressed in swimming clothes, she dives in a pool) I was taken away from my parents when I was very young and up till date, haven't seen them. Perhaps they died or abandoned me. I'm restricted from coming out of my cell and making direct physical contact with anyone. Well, I was told whoever I touch will die immediately on the spot; that's how severe my condition is, but Dr. Ashton and the rest are trying to find a cure.

(Comes out pool, cleans body, now on a recliner chair playing video games while eating sugary snacks. She excitedly presses her console and yells when she's won a round.

Aliya:
(With enthusiasm) Yes!

She now runs to the green courtyard and shoots a basketball into a net.

Aliya:
(With enthusiasm) Scores!

A big screen displays the words “CONGRATULATIONS! NICE GAME!” simultaneously, the automated voice says it with the screen displaying fireworks. Aliya jumps enthusiastically. The next scene switches fast showing a dispirited Aliya once more on her bed, facing up, lost in thoughts.

Aliya’s Thoughts

“It's fun” but it gets very boring knowing you're all alone, separated from the outside world. (She adjusts her body to face downward on her bed, resting her head on a pillow)

Voice continues:
What makes me feel okay is the idea that I'm protecting the world from myself.

I feel lonely, but sometimes my friend, Renolds, comes to visit me, of course staying outside this thing I call “the bubble.” He's a doctor here and can be very busy like the rest.

[Her eyes are closing] Asides from that, I cannot make contact with anyone [Her eyes close as she sleeps]

The lights in sector 002 shuts down. Camera shows a view of a control box with buttons beeping light, now shutting off.

Suddenly, the sound of glass shattering and equipment breaking is heard, causing Aliya to fear greatly. She jerks up, panting. A red light turns on in the sector [The usual light is white] and tension is obvious on Aliya. The atmosphere brings horror.

Aliya:
Who's there!?

(Her eyes spark open. She tries to calm herself, thinking it's one of the doctors) Dr. Renolds!? Nurse May?! Dr. Ash…! (She begins to hear footsteps coming close. Liquid is poured on the controls. It starts to spark and the 17 year old thinks to stop it. She goes close to the controls but remembers she can't reach it cause it's on the red line.

Aliya:
Dammit!

She stands up idle, frightened to death. Her instincts tell her to recoil her steps when she sees a ball rolling towards her, and for the first time, her bubble opens on its own due to the malfunctioning of the controls.
