THE MORBID SEVEN RISE AGAIN Page #9

INT. MORGUE - DAY

Elena is upset.

It is six-thirty in the morning. Elena gets out of bed. Brushes her teeth. Looks in the mirror. Straightens herself and feels extremely confident.

She checks the time regularly. The time now is 6.53 am. She gets in the shower, finishes showering, walks out and straight in her Treatment Tank at 7.03. Out of the tank at 8.33, fetches the fast-acting Facial Rejuvenation injection ‘FacieiRenovatioX934’ and injects at 8.33. Puts her makeup at 8.43. She is now ready and heads for the Laboratory at 8.58.

It is two minutes to nine. Novak enters his office. He looks for Elena.

NOVAK:

Elena? Where are you hiding?

Few seconds before nine, the door handle turns. Elena steps in. The Grandfather clock chimes Nine.

NOVAK:

We have a busy day ahead of us. All the zombies will be coming back.

ELENA:

(unusual sexy voice)

I am ready to go to work. They are not expected here till noon. There is plenty time clean up old cobwebs.

NOVAK:

Your perfume smells heavenly today.

ELENA:

The reason it took a little longer.

She creeps in from behind Novak. She smells like a rose; her face is as serene and beautiful as expected. Her hands are now on his shoulders. She gives Novak a gentle rub, and then some more around his neck. Her hands smell of the most beautiful soothing lotion.

Standing behind Novak, her breasts push against the side of his head, she whispers in his ear.

ELENA:

Eleven years to the day since you last made love to me, my darling. It was on the day of the accident.

NOVAK:

That long. True, it happened just before we were covered in blood. Less fun when you’re dead.

ELENA:

Precisely, so what are you waiting for? Do you think I am a praying mantis or a black widow spider?

NOVAK:

No, no. Nothing like that.

ELENA:

Then enjoy life Novak. Life is short. Believe me, very short.

NOVAK:

Let’s just finish the morning’s work.

ELENA:

The time for work starts now. Listen carefully to the clock behind you. Tick... tock, tick... tock.

It is 9.05. He is overtaken by Elena’s scent and by her gentle movements; he succumbs to her charm, looks up to her and...

NOVAK:

Like the old days, Elena.

Novak looks at her, his body almost paralyzed. His eyelids move increasingly fast, almost twitching.

She loosens his belt, then undoes his trousers. He is still in his chair. She is now on him. She looks at him while keeping an eye on the Grandfather clock.

ELENA:

Listen, listen carefully, Novak. Tick... tock, tick... tock. Life is too short. Enjoy it before you hit the freezer.

NOVAK:

I am and I will enjoy it, all the way.

ELENA:

Ah, ‘all the way’ huh, you little brat, you love the Sinatras don’t you. That’s Frank Sinatra. Are you as good as Frankie?

NOVAK:

Better.

ELENA:

Prove it then.

NOVAK:

Please Elena, give me a break.

ELENA:

We have been in this position for a whole fifteen minutes. The Grandfather tells me it’s almost

nine-twenty. Tick... tock, tick... tock. Soon we reach Crescendo.

NOVAK:

Almost there, yes, tick... tock, tick... tock. Keep ticking Elena.

Her eyes bulge out of their sockets and her gaze locks on his face. His eyes are wide open. Then, her own eyes start to sink slowly in the back of her head leaving two deep black holes. Her fangs spring out. He tries to move but he is nailed in. He tries to fight but his strength is gone. Her mouth starts moving towards the left side of his neck. Her fangs sink in.

Novak struggles and continues the futile attempt; his arms swing violently at first then they drop to his sides. The tusks stay buried in his neck.

His eyes start to dilate, his body loses all its strength and then she kindly and gently closes his eyelids.

ELENA:

Dying gently in my arms. How sweet. Remember, I love you darling.

Elena gets up, cleans herself and drags Novak’s body behind the curtains. She calls the Hotel.

ELENA:

This is Elena Adamescu from Eternal Cryogenics. Drive my guests to my address in your best limousine. Immediately.

Noon. First to enter was Zach. He almost collapses as soon as he sees Elena’s face. He is followed by Eli who slumps on the floor with fright. Lazarus follows Eli and crashes to the floor on top of him. Then Doc Garner starts to vomit. Finally, Nikola shows up carrying Baron Frederick and drops him on a chair. Then he helps the other three men off the floor.

NIKOLA PETRESCU:

These Westerns, no balls. I put some water on their faces Mrs. ...

ELENA:

Adamescu. Elena Adamescu. I am in control now. Novak threatened you. He is a bad man and paid the price. He is behind the curtains, dead.

LAZARUS:

(points at his face)

What happened... Mrs. Adamescu?

ELENA:

(mischievous smile)

Lazarus, save your energy for later. Believe me, you will be needing it.

LAZARUS:

Yes, Mrs. Adamescu.

ELENA:

To prove that I am a good woman, but also a very horny one, I will turn Baron Frederick’s chip to ‘on’ right now.

(keys in the info)

Watch his lifeless body come to life again. Five seconds and counting.

LAZARUS:

How did you do that?

ELENA:

Are you dumb, I just told you. Your brains must be in your balls. Speak when spoken to. Dimwit. You all will live if you do exactly what I say. Otherwise, I will turn all of you into zombies.

GARNER:

Mrs. Adamescu, I need to take a piss.

ELENA:

Hold on to it, cowboy. Nikola, this $10,000 is for your family. Pick Novak’s body, put him in the first hole you find, finish the job nicely, then return to your family. Mouth shut. Move.

NIKOLA PETRESCU:

Yes, Mrs. Adamescu.

Nikola drags the body to the door, he runs back and grabs his money, and then out of the door dragging Novak’s body behind him.

ELENA:

The rest of you stay for the show. Learn and tell me what you think after you witness the finale. Baron, are you feeling better?

Baron Frederick nods.

ELENA:

Better be, otherwise I’ll turn your chip off.

The Baron hiccups and covers his mouth.

ELENA:

I want to reassure myself that I am still worthy of attention. Do you understand what I mean or do I have to be crude, I mean, explicit?

The Goldings nod.

ELENA:

Zach, you indicate you understand? Are you volunteering? Your face went white. Means a NO. Eli, what about you. I see, Eli, your face is even whiter. Cowboy, get me some water.

Doc Garner, gets up in hesitation, walks sideways and fills her glass.

ELENA:

You wet your pants! Piss pants. I cannot believe this. You will be shot dead in Texas. The Baron is out.

She takes a sip of water while she mulls her next move.

ELENA:

That leaves me with just one option. Lazarus, you’re the European stud. Their fate is in your hands. Do you want them to die and you with them?
