Teaser
At night.
The camera moves through the city of Sacramento where in the background there are sounds of police cars and car horns, the camera slows down settling down in a long dark ally. A dark figure is seen running through the ally with a gun in his right hand and another figure behind also holding a gun, the first figure comes to a dead end but tries to climb over the wall in front. The second figure catches up with first:
Woman’s voice: Hold it!
The camera turns around on a tall woman, with blond hair, wearing a pair of jeans and a zipped up black jacket, it’s Kate Lockley!
Man’s voice: Ok, ok, you got me lady
The man has a pale white face with dark blond hair and wearing a tuxedo.
Kate: You’re under arrest for the theft of the money from the bank of Sacramento.
Man: Yeah, Yeah lady, heard it all before.
Kate: Drop the gun Mr Clean
The man flings the gun away and Kate walks towards him, pointing her gun at him with one hand and reaching for her handcuffs with the other. The handcuffs snag on her belt buckle and in the second she takes to try and rectify the problem the man charges. He goes to shoulder charge her but she drops to a crouch just in time. His legs collide with her body but she had steadied herself, he flips over her body landing on his head. The man lays there groaning. Kate gets up and stands over him
Kate: You have the right to remain silent (Smirks)
-----------------------------------------------------End of Teaser----Credits-----------
Act 1
At night still.
Back at the Police Station.
Kate is in her office looking through some files, there’s a knock at her door:
Kate: Come in.
In steps officer Jackson:
Jackson: hi Kate, he’s ready for you.
Kate: thanks Carle, I’ll be there in a few.
5 minutes later Kate walks into a small room with no windows and one two-way mirror and a table with two chairs. Sitting in one of the chairs is the man she captured in the ally. He has a bruise on his forehead and he keeps dabbing at it gingerly. Kate sits down in the other chair and looks at him, her eyes move to the bruise, she smiles.
Kate: So, lets start with something simple, what’s your full name?
Man: Alexander Paterson
Kate: Good, now age?
Alex: This isn’t a blind date sweetheart?
Kate: (Still smiling) Just answer the question
Alex: 37
Kate: Now for the fun questions, where’s the money from the bank?
Alex: My little secret dahl!
Kate’s smile falters
Kate: All I know so far is that if you call me ’dahl’ again that bruise will feel like a dream about your favourite playmate
Alex: I lost my job two months ago, and I was little low for cash so……
Kate: where did you work?
Alex: A business in LA called Wolfram And Hart.
A look of recognition appears on Kate’s face
Alex: Ah, you heard of it I see
Kate: Yeah, it’s familiar, why did you lose your job?
Alex: The business fell to pieces, literally.
Kate: I have a pretty good idea how that might’ve happened (Smiles), so you were a little low on cash and then what?
Alex: Come on lady, you can guess that.
Kate: I’ve been working here for three years, it doesn’t mean I can read minds!
Alex: I went and stole some money from the bank.
Kate: Some! Looking at this (she picks up a bit of paper off the table) you took $5’835 from them.
Alex: Yeah well I needed it.
Kate: So where’s the money Alex?
Alex: Oh like I’ll tell you that.
Kate: Look you’re already going on trial for this so its not like you’re going to see it again.
Alex: (With a look of menace) I’d like to see you try and get the money back.
Kate: What’s that supposed to mean?
Alex ignores her.
Kate gets up and walks around behind Alex, she flicks at his bruise. Alex lets out a cry of pain.
Kate: Tell me where!!
Alex: Go to North Tower park, it lives in the small grey building next to the two oak trees.
Kate: It?
Alex: Better hurry too, he goes out around now.
Alex smirks at her.
Kate makes for the door then turns around.
Kate: You’d better be right about this.
She walks out as two police guards enter.
-------------------------Break-------END OF ACT 1--------
Act 2
At night still.
Kate is walking along a woodland path through North Tower Park, she stops and looks around and sees a small grey building with one door and a couple of windows.
She walks up to the door and knocks, when she does so the door opens a few inches.
Kate looks surprised.
She walks into a small hallway with two doors on either side and one right at the end of the hall. Her gun is In her hand
First she checks the door to the right of her. But its locked.
Then she walks over to the one on the left. Its unlocked.
She walks in turning on the light beside her.
There isn’t much in the room apart from a huge stack of cabinets.
She walks over to a few opening two or three at a time. A few seconds later she pulls out a document with Alex’s name at the bottom.
Voice from behind her: Looking for something ?
Kate turns quickly and is about to hold her gun up. We see a shadowed figure but that all as a fist connects with her face.
*
Kate opens her eyes to a well lit up room with a desk at one end, persian carpet, dark orange walls and a fish tank to the side. She can feel her hands bound behind her back. The uncomfortable feeling she gets isn’t just due to the hard chair she is tied to. She looks at the chair that is facing the wall behind the desk.
The chair turns around and a white skinned demon with green eyes wearing a posh suit is sitting in it.
Demon: Hi
Kate: You’re a demon.
Demon: Amazing policework, how on Earth did you decipher that one Detective
Kate: The smell, how ugly you are, this hovel of a home……
Demon: (Shouts) Enough, (back to calm) yes I am a demon (he takes a sniff of his underarm but seems satisfied) I have been all my life.
Kate: Let me go.
Demon: And why would I want to do that ?
Kate: Because I am an Officer of the law.
Demon: Little girl (Sighs) I do not work with the law.
Kate: You know an Alexander Paterson.
Demon: Yes, good friend, gives me people to……
Kate: To what ?
Demon: Oops, slip of the tongue.
Kate: He gives you people to eat ?
Demon: Well not tonight, looks like the meal (Laughs) cAme to me! Oh but do not worry, you still have a little longer to live. Not all that hungry at the moment.
Kate: You bastard.
Demon: Now now no need for rudeness. Tell me Miss why did you come, to my er hovel as you so delicately put it.
Kate: You have some money?
Demon: I do, why do you ask?
Kate: Did you know that its stolen money?
Demon: Back to the whole law thing again I see. Of course I know its stolen, half of it is mine.
Kate fiddles with the ropes behind her back.
Kate: Why is half yours?
Demon: Because I did half the crime!
Kate: You mean you stole the money with him.
Demon: Well yeah.
He walks towards her.
Demon: Oh dear, I seem to have confessed to a crime in front of a Police Officer.
Kate: Yeah bad move
Demon: Ah here comes that appetite
He lunges at the seated Kate
Kate: Hope this fills you up then!
She puts up her feet and kicks the onrushing Demon in the chest
--------------------END OF ACT 2----------------
Act 3
We see the Demon flying backwards across the desk. Kate quickly runs over to the cupboards searching for the money, nothing, nothing, nothing, got it!
She runs over to the door and down the hall. Behind her the figure of the demon is in the doorway.
Demon: Leaving so soon!
It runs after her.
Kate runs out the building and across the wooded ground. She looks behind her, its still running after her, but its too late, her foot connects with a thick root coming up from under the ground and she stumbles, then falls to the floor.
The demon leaps into the air and lands on her. She screams.
Demon: At last a meal worth eating!
Kate turns her head to the side to see a short bit of wood laying next to her, she grabs it and slams it into the demon’s side. It yells as it rolls off of her.
Kate stands up. She sees her gun fall out the demons pocket and he rolls over.
Kate is about to pick it up when the demon punches her across the face once again, knocking her out of the way of the gun. Still holding the piece of wood Kate smacks it across the back of the demon sending it to the floor. She drops the wood and quickly picks up the gun and points it at the demon. It turn to face her, still lying on the floor.
Demon: Look Miss, just give me the money and I’ll let you go!
Kate thinks about what she’s about to do.
Kate: Something about nearly being eaten that makes me kinda cranky
She looks around and sees no one in sight
She sends three bullets into the demons head and it lies still
She turns around to get back to her car, but hears a rustling
Kate turns around to see the demon standing up again:
Kate: You’re dead!
Demon: Take a look at me, I’m a demon, guns are the bane of the humans and the weak. Oh and by the way, I’m gonna need that money back…NOW!
Kate takes a step back, gun in hand but down by her side.
Demon: Look, just give me the money and I wont kill you….
Kate looks blank.
Demon: Ok, that’s a lie but still, hand it over.
The Demon stalks towards, Kate backs up but bumps into a tree. The Demon’s hand closes around her neck
Demon: (Sniffs) You are going to taste….ahhhhhhhh
The Demon leaps off Kate like he has been scalded
He looks up and then back at Kate, he looks severely pissed but keeps his voice calm
Demon: I will be seeing you again, real soon.
With that he takes off at lightning speed, not towards his house but towards a well concealed hole on the ground
Kate still confused looks up and sees the sun
Kate: That must be why he is so pale, he cant handle light.
With that Kate heads off towards her car, with the idea of having as many lamps plugged in her office as she can manage
*
About an hour later Kate is back in her office with the case of money next to her.
She shuts down her Computer and walks out of her office with the case, she goes down the corridor and turns lefts into a room.
Sitting at the desk is the desk sergeant looking through some files.
Kate: Hello Dugg
Dugg: Hello there Kate
Kate: Here’s the stolen money, it was being kept by a guy at….
Dugg: I know who Kate.
Kate: You do?
Dugg: Yes, we went and checked the place you were sent too, we found a body.
Kate: You did but I didn’t think I…..was it out in the grounds?
Dugg: No, it was inside, on a bed.
Kate: What?
Dugg: You killed a man Kate.
Kate: No, I didn’t, I never, I mean I shot a….
Dugg: Let me guess a demon or was it a vampire or a zombie. I spoke with your old boss yesterday, he said you have this wild obsession with the supernatural.
Kate: The thing attacked me Dugg..
Dugg: It was human Kate for crying out loud.
Kate: It wasn’t Dugg, it was a white demon, I know it sounds crazy but I wouldn’t of just shot something if I didn’t have a good reason to.
Dugg: Kate just go home, have some tea and go to bed. You need the rest.
Kate: I know what I fought, I know what I saw.
Dugg: That maybe, but it doesn’t convince me.
Kate: Maybe the demon has some special power to make itself look like a man….
Dugg: Enough Kate, just hand over the money.
Kate gives him the money, and she turns and walks to the door.
Dugg: You have one more chance working here Kate, you’re a good Officer, but unless you forget all this crap your career will be in ruins. This is your last warning.
Kate just walks out, a tear falls down her cheek.
Kate comes out of the police station holding her hand bag and car keys. She’s still crying and gets into her car and drives home.
She opens her front door to her apartment and goes in, she dumps her bag and keys on the side table beside the door and goes to have a shower.
After her shower she walks into her living room with a cup in her hand and sits down on the couch
A voice speaks from behind
Demon: The money
Kate doesn’t turn around
Kate: I thought you might show up
Demon: The money
Kate makes to take a sip of her tea but we see it doesn’t touch her lips
Kate: I don’t have it anymore
Demon: All the worse for you then
The Demon rushes forward, but quick as a flash Kate turns and flings the content of the cup in the Demons face
Demon: (Screams)
He awkwardly tries to rub at his eyes with his long fingers then realises something is wrong, he sniffs at his hands. He looks at Kate and sees she has a lighter in her hand
Demon: No!
Kate smiles and flicks the lighter at his face, he catches it but he goes up in flames surprisingly quickly, soon he is just a pile of ash on the floor
Kate: Demons and fire, never seem to mix (Smiles)
As Kate is sweeping up the ashes there comes a knock at the door, she moves quickly across the room to collect her gun then moves to the door, she looks through the peep hole but sees nobody.
She steadies her self and flings the door open pointing her gun to the left and then to the right. When she has it pointed to the right the gun is awkwardly sticking into a guys cheek.
The guy speaks uneasily through the obstruction to his face
Man: Hi Shis! Long time no shee.
------------------------------------End of Act 3-----------------------------------------------------
Act 4
Kate just stands their in the doorway of her apartment looking blank, a man is standing in front of her, with blond jelled up hair, dark eyes, wearing dark jeans and a light blue t-shirt:
Man: Ish there something wrong, don’t you recognishe me ?
Kate: Who are you ?
Man: Pleashe take the gun outta my face (Kate lowers the gun)
Man: (While rubbing his face) Kevin, your brother………..well half brother.
Kate: I’m sorry, I don’t have a half brother, you must be mistaken.
Kevin: No, I’m positive it’s you.
Kate: What’s your last name?
Kevin: Lockley!
Kate is still looking blank at Kevin and doesn’t know what to say:
Kevin: Please, can I come in and we can talk about this.
Kate: Sure, just go and sit down over there (she points to the couch)
Kevin: Thanks.
Kevin walks over to the couch and looks down at the scorch marks
Kevin: Er whats…
Kate: I’m a terrible cook (Glares at him)
Kevin: Okaaay
Kate: Do you want a cup of tea or something?
Kevin: Sure (looks down at the scorch marks) actually I’m good thanks.
Kevin sits down on the couch and Kate pulls up a chair opposite him
Kate: So how come I don’t know about you?, I mean have we ever met ?
Kevin: Yeah once, but we were 3 or 4 I think, I only found out about you from dad, I mean our dad, is he here in Sacramento with you.
Kate drops her gaze
Kate: My father never mentioned you to me, how could he have another child and not tell me
Kevin: Did dad always tell you everything
This clearly strikes a nerve with Kate
Kevin: Look
Kevin reaches into his pocket and pulls out a wallet, something else slips out onto the floor as well but he scoops it quickly back up looking a little on edge and places it back into his pocket. He opens up the wallet and pulls out a small square piece of card and hands it to Kate.
Kate: A picture
We see the picture up close and we can see clearly that it is a younger looking Trevor Lockley and a very clearly Kevin
Kate runs her finger across Trevor’s face
Kate: Kevin, there’s something you should know about dad.
Kevin: What? Is he ill?
Kate: No, he….he died….just over 4 years ago.
Kevin: What? Who did….how did it happen (a very sad look creeps up on his face)
Kate: He was bitten…I mean……he cut himself along the neck, he died of blood loss in the hospital.
Kevin: No one told me, I hadn’t seen him in over 8 years.
Kevin puts his head into his hands
Kate: Is your Mum still around? Mine died when I was a little girl.
Kevin looks back up clearly searching for words
Kevin: I’m sorry, yes she is still around, she erm left our dad when I was 6, I haven’t seen her since.
Kate: (In a way she would talk to a witness at a crime scene) That must be horrible for you.
Kevin: Not as bad as you, you have lost both your parents.
Kate: Yeah it’s bad, but I dealt with it
Kevin gives her a look of concern
Kevin: Even though I haven’t seen him in a long time, the last thing he said to me was telling me about you, he said one day he would tell you about me, but I guess it was too late.
Kate looks extremely uncomfortable talking about all this with a stranger and it is clear she wishes to end the conversation, she gets up and heads for the door, she opens it.
Kate: Its late.
Kevin looks a little crestfallen but gets up and heads through the door
Kevin: Where is he buried ?
Kate gives a look of concern clearly the zombie incident from 3 years previous hasn’t been forgotten
Kate: In Sunset Cemetery…..in LA.
Kevin: Well then that is where I will go.
Kate: I‘ll come too.
Kevin: I thought you said that it was late plus I’d rather go alone if that’s ok.
Kate: (With a major look of worry) Of course.
Kevin: See you later.
He walk’s out the apartment.
Kate: Bye.

Demon: (Screams)
He awkwardly tries to rub at his eyes with his long fingers then realises something is wrong, he sniffs at his hands. He looks at Kate and sees she has a lighter in her hand
Demon: No!
Kate smiles and flicks the lighter at his face, he catches it but he goes up in flames surprisingly quickly, soon he is just a pile of ash on the floor
Kate: Demons and fire, never seem to mix (Smiles)
As Kate is sweeping up the ashes there comes a knock at the door, she moves quickly across the room to collect her gun then moves to the door, she looks through the peep hole but sees nobody.
She steadies her self and flings the door open pointing her gun to the left and then to the right. When she has it pointed to the right the gun is awkwardly sticking into a guys cheek.
The guy speaks uneasily through the obstruction to his face
Man: Hi Shis! Long time no shee.

Act 4
Kate just stands their in the doorway of her apartment looking blank, a man is standing in front of her, with blond jelled up hair, dark eyes, wearing dark jeans and a light blue t-shirt:
Man: Ish there something wrong, don’t you recognishe me ?
Kate: Who are you ?
Man: Pleashe take the gun outta my face (Kate lowers the gun)
Man: (While rubbing his face) Kevin, your brother………..well half brother.
Kate: I’m sorry, I don’t have a half brother, you must be mistaken.
Kevin: No, I’m positive it’s you.
Kate: What’s your last name?
Kevin: Lockley!
Kate is still looking blank at Kevin and doesn’t know what to say:
Kevin: Please, can I come in and we can talk about this.
Kate: Sure, just go and sit down over there (she points to the couch)
Kevin: Thanks.
Kevin walks over to the couch and looks down at the scorch marks
Kevin: Er whats…
Kate: I’m a terrible cook (Glares at him)
Kevin: Okaaay
Kate: Do you want a cup of tea or something?
Kevin: Sure (looks down at the scorch marks) actually I’m good thanks.
Kevin sits down on the couch and Kate pulls up a chair opposite him
Kate: So how come I don’t know about you?, I mean have we ever met ?
Kevin: Yeah once, but we were 3 or 4 I think, I only found out about you from dad, I mean our dad, is he here in Sacramento with you.
Kate drops her gaze
Kate: My father never mentioned you to me, how could he have another child and not tell me
Kevin: Did dad always tell you everything
This clearly strikes a nerve with Kate
Kevin: Look
Kevin reaches into his pocket and pulls out a wallet, something else slips out onto the floor as well but he scoops it quickly back up looking a little on edge and places it back into his pocket. He opens up the wallet and pulls out a small square piece of card and hands it to Kate.
Kate: A picture
We see the picture up close and we can see clearly that it is a younger looking Trevor Lockley and a very clearly Kevin
Kate runs her finger across Trevor’s face
Kate: Kevin, there’s something you should know about dad.
Kevin: What? Is he ill?
Kate: No, he….he died….just over 4 years ago.
Kevin: What? Who did….how did it happen (a very sad look creeps up on his face)
Kate: He was bitten…I mean……he cut himself along the neck, he died of blood loss in the hospital.
Kevin: No one told me, I hadn’t seen him in over 8 years.
Kevin puts his head into his hands
Kate: Is your Mum still around? Mine died when I was a little girl.
Kevin looks back up clearly searching for words
Kevin: I’m sorry, yes she is still around, she erm left our dad when I was 6, I haven’t seen her since.
Kate: (In a way she would talk to a witness at a crime scene) That must be horrible for you.
Kevin: Not as bad as you, you have lost both your parents.
Kate: Yeah it’s bad, but I dealt with it
Kevin gives her a look of concern
Kevin: Even though I haven’t seen him in a long time, the last thing he said to me was telling me about you, he said one day he would tell you about me, but I guess it was too late.
Kate looks extremely uncomfortable talking about all this with a stranger and it is clear she wishes to end the conversation, she gets up and heads for the door, she opens it.
Kate: Its late.
Kevin looks a little crestfallen but gets up and heads through the door
Kevin: Where is he buried ?
Kate gives a look of concern clearly the zombie incident from 3 years previous hasn’t been forgotten
Kate: In Sunset Cemetery…..in LA.
Kevin: Well then that is where I will go.
Kate: I‘ll come too.
Kevin: I thought you said that it was late plus I’d rather go alone if that’s ok.
Kate: (With a major look of worry) Of course.
Kevin: See you later.
He walk’s out the apartment.
Kate: Bye.
