The Finales I: Date Of Fire Page #5

Nate:
CAN’T YOU SEE? I’LL DESTROY THE WHOLE COUNTRY, YOU WILL KNOW MY NAME, YOU WILL KNOW WHO I AM. I’M FIREN--

Scott turns up the voltage, causing him to shut up.

Scott:
You’re who?

Scott walks off, shutting the door.

Scott:
What a stupid name, Firen, Shoot! Even I could’ve thought of something better.

His very, very green cat walks up to him, meowing.

Scott (grabbing her): Awww, Pretty Kay.

We move back where Nate is.

Nate (body slowly becoming fire, slowly burning the wire): I WON’T STAY HERE!

Nate breaks the wire, and gets out of his chair. He walks into Scott’s room, Scott is reading a People magazine when Nate walks in.

Nate (grabbing him by the neck, not burning him yet): HELLO.

Scott (panicking): HOW DO YOU EXIST?! HUH?!

We cut back to the beginning.

Ben:
What the heck, Nate? I thought you created powers--!

Nate (kneeling on the ground in happiness): I did! It worked! I combined all my serums, and it gave Cason thermal--

Ben:
Chase.

Nate:
And it gave Devin superstrength!

Ben:
You’re f***ing crazy, Nate, You’re a mad scientist--

Nate:
You said the government gave y’all this cover so we could do stuff like this! Here’s our chance!

Ben (grabbing a shot out of Nate’s hand): What about you?

Nate:
What about me?!

Ben begins slowly walking towards her, going to inject it in her.

Nate:
No.

Ben:
Do you want to? Or is this magic? You were always a magical idiot anyway.

Nate:
Why do you guys bully me?

Ben:
What? We’ve bullied you since pre-k, Why--

Ben injects him.

Nate (suddenly shaking, falling to the ground): What?! What did you--

Ben (looking at him with a crazy look): You are right, We are mad scientists.

Nate (shaking, becoming red everywhere, slightly orange on the neck): IT BURNS! OH MY GOD! IT BURNS OH MY--

Ben looks outside, sees nobody due to it being dark, and drags him into a storage closet.

Nate (about to be shut inside the storage closet): WAIT!

Ben (stopping):
Any last words?

Nate (becoming firen): I will get my revenge. I will show you a world with no mercy, A world with no life. Only suffering--

Ben (slamming the door): Not if you’re dead.

We flashback to when Lo walked in and sat down.

Nate:
You guys betrayed me!

The doctors try to give her a shot, but Nate instantly punches it out of the way. Field begins to try to hold her by the neck, but he instantly grabs the Doctor as he is about to try to hold her by the neck.

Nate:
You won’t do this--

Jay:
Oh shut up!

As Jay attempts to punch Nate, Nate randomly flies out the roof, and becomes a ball of fire.

Lo:
What the--?

A man named Dave sits next to him.

Dave:
First time?

We cut back to Scott and Nate, Nate burns Scott’s neck, causing him to die instantly, She drops him down. We then cut to Dave and Lo on a couch, Dave is drinking a can of some half-tea lemonade stuff. Lo is looking at him, looking at him as if he was a crazy person, Lo is drinking some pepsi soda.

Lo:
Jesus, Have you not drank anything in your whole life? You’ve drank 19 of those 23 ounce cans, my dude.

Dave:
I don’t know, man, I feel weird, Like, Really weird.

Lo:
They make stuff for that, It is called tama-flu.

Dave (laughing):
Well, I don’t have a cough, So….

Lo:
Whatever you say, Anyway, What the hell was going on back there?

Dave:
You didn’t hear?

Lo:
No? I was talking to Ms. Big Titties.

Dave:
You know our bartender?

Lo:
Ms. Small Titties?

Dave:
She’s trans.

Lo:
Okay?

Dave:
Huh?

Lo:
And I’ll repeat myself, What the hell was going on back there?

Dave:
She’s trans! I thought I found someone, but--

Lo:
So, You found someone? Nice.

Dave:
I can’t date a transgender!

Lo:
Why? She a bartender not good enough for you?

Dave:
No, No, No! It’s just that, that--

Lo:
What?

Dave (getting up): I don’t even f***ing know!

Dave suddenly randomly starts throwing up blood.

Lo (jumping up):
DAVE!

Dave falls onto the floor, puking up blood. Lo goes to give him a bag, and as soon as Lo is about to give it to him, Dave grabs it, and begins randomly throwing it in his hands like a hot potato.

Lo:
What the?

Dave:
I don’t, I don’t know what’s happening.

Lo:
You didn’t even see the bag, and you grabbed it.

Dave (looking at the bag): Something’s happening to me, Lo.

Lo:
Uhhhh, I…. I don’t know what to say, You’re--

Dave:
It’s like in that movie, when he got his powers and he’s learning to use them randomly. It’s weird, It is like, I’m a superhero.

Lo:
A superhero?

Lo awkwardly laughs as Dave has a serious look on his face.

Dave:
I’m serious.

We cut to a montage Nate throwing firebolts at innocent people. As Dave practices running on the road near Lo’s house, and Dave randomly begins flying.

Dave:
Lo! OH MY GOD! OH MY GOD! I’M FLYING OH MY GOD!

Lo:
Oh my god, You really are flying.

Dave:
The water!

Lo:
The what?!

Dave:
HUH?!

Lo:
THE WHAT?

Dave:
THE WATER! IT DID IT!

Lo:
WELL THEN.

While Dave is flying, he sees a tower on fire.

Dave:
Lo!

Lo:
WHAT?

Dave swoops down and grabs Lo.

Lo:
Let go of me! Let go of me you son of a--

Dave:
I see something!

Dave points at the Tower.

Dave:
I’m going to go to it!

Lo:
Well, I don’t got magical powers! What the heck am I supposed to do--?

Dave:
Stay behind me! And (Dave slaps him) They ain’t magic!

Lo:
Well, What are they?!

We cut to them swooping down to the ground, near the tower.

Lizzy (a woman watching who was standing near them): My son’s in there! You guys gotta do something!

Lo:
We?!

Dave:
Come on, Lo!

Lo (as they’re running in the tower): I need to get my flu shot.

Dave:
Let’s find the kid!

They run up the stairs, They hear a woman talking.

Nate:
Crying kid, You think it’ll make a difference?! NO! NO ONE IS GOING TO SAVE YOU!

As Nate is about to burn the kid, Dave and Lo show up.

Lo (elbowing Dave, whispering): I think we found the kid.

Dave:
Who are you?!

Nate (looking at him): Ha! Look, It is a superhero! An undercover police officer! (pointing at him) Seriously though---

Dave:
Let the kid go!

Nate:
Why should I?

Lo:
You’re a sick person, aren’t you?!

Nate:
Sick?! No, Angry?! I guess you could say that!

Dave pushes Lo to the side.

Lo:
You--!

Dave:
I got this. Hold on.

Topher (little kid in Nate’s arms): Help me!

Dave:
Hold on, kid, I’ll get you!

Nate:
Yeah, Yeah, You’ll get him!

Nate throws the kid out the tower.

Dave (running to him): YOU!

Nate grabs him, and they engage in a fight, Nate quickly gets the upper hand.

Dave:
Lo, You got a weapon?!

Lo:
I don’t have pockets in these pants!

Dave:
It is 102 degrees in here, and you’re wearing f***ing pants?!

Lo:
I didn’t plan on going in a burning f***ing building today!

Dave:
What pair of pants don’t have pockets?!

Dave and Nate eventually find themselves falling out of the tower, Lo looks down, and sees Nate flying away, and Dave has tons of smoke on him.

Lo (yelling down at him): DAVE!

Dave doesn’t answer. He is lying there, still.

Lo:
DAVE?! DAVEEEEEEEE?!

Dave’s head shakes.

Lo (running down the stairs to him): I gotta get there! I gotta--
