Prologue

FADE IN

A puddle of water besides to a boardwalk is reflecting the neon lights of the city as a foot steps through it.

WALTHER - a gray haired man in his fifties - is running through the streets, armed with an M1911.

A predator drone is flying through the sky.

INFO SOLDIER:

"City Base to Squad."

ELIS - a young woman with blue colored hair - is calmly following him.

INFO SOLDIER(CONT'D):

"Priority 01"

INT. NATO VAN - NIGHT

Soldiers are reloading their weapons, and putting on their safety gear.

INFO SOLDIER:

"Terror suspect three of the laughing man is on the lose."

EXT. STREET - NIGHT

Walther bumps his shoulder with a teenager.

TEENAGER(Background noise):                                                  INFO SOLDIER: 

"Hey are you blind?"                                                                    "He's suspected to aim at Scrapper zero forty in Sector 6."

Walther enters a butchery, without responding.

EXT. NATO VAN - NIGHT

The back of a military van opens,

INFO SOLDIER:

"Don't let him."

and NATO SOLDIER ONE, TWO, THREE and FOUR jump out.

INFO SOLDIER(CONT'D):

"Hunt him down."

INT. BUTCHER'S SHOP – NIGHT

The butcher tries to stop Walther from entering the backroom.

BUTCHER:

"Hey, you can't."

Walther pushes the butcher who falls into the corner of the small backroom, between the cooling chamber, and the main entry.

The butcher puts his hand on his shoulder with a pain filled facial expression.

Then he looks towards Walther who's trying to break open the lock on the backdoor.

BUTCHER:

"You scum! You'll regret this!"

Walther ignores the butcher. He opens the backdoor and runs out of the butchery, and into a small alleyway.

The butcher holds his gaze on Walther.

BUTCHER:

"I'll get you for this! I swear."

Walther ignores him.

Elis enters the small backroom.

Still sitting in the corner the butcher looks up to her.

BUTCHER:

"Huh? Young lady?"

She ignores him as well, and walks through the backdoor. Perplexed the butcher looks to the ground.

BUTCHER:

"What's going on today?"

Walther walks into a glass door of an abandoned skyscraper. The door falls open, and he falls to the ground.

Not wasting any time, he gets back up and continues running through the empty main entry until he reaches a stairwell.

He runs up the stairs, and turns towards a hallway, without looking around.

NATO SOLDIER ONE:

"Freeze!"

Walther stops and puts his hands up, while dropping his M1911.

WALTHER:

"I can't..."

NATO Soldiers one, two, three and four, who are all behind Walther, have their rifles aimed at his back.

Walther turns his head slightly towards them.

WALTHER:

"At least for today,"

He shakes his head,

WALTHER(CONT'D):

"I can't."

and runs off.

Nato Soldier One has his finger on the trigger. But he hesitates.

NATO SOLDIER TWO puts his hand on NATO SOLDIER ONE's shoulder, to push himself off with.

NATO SOLDIER TWO:

"Darnit."

He follows Walther, who's running up a broken escalator, and who tackles a locked door. Therefore tearing the door out of its doorframe.

He slides over the floor with his knees, and starts running towards a staircase.

The Nato Soldiers follow him up the broken escalator.

While running up the staircase, Walther grabs inside of his jacket, and pulls out an ODD LOOKING REVOLVER.

He kicks open a door, and enters an abandoned office room.

Running through that office he pulls back the hammer to his revolver.

Then he kicks in the door of an adjacent room.

He walks into that room, while aiming down at an inner corner of it, where we see the core of a Guardian: Oval, with rough edges on it. It has infested the entire wall of the room, with silver strings that hold it in place.

[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1T18gkYT9XxU1QT6r5b7ifEj9RMm54Mqs/view?usp=sharing]

A red light is flashing through the black silver exterior of the core.

Walther aims down at it with an expression of disgust.

The Nato Soldiers walk into the abandoned office, and Walther pulls the trigger of the odd looking Revolver.

Its bullet penetrates the exterior of the Guardians Core. A five inch diameter of it evaporates on impact, creating a small crater on the exterior of the core.

The core gives off an eardrum bursting scream, while opening up like a flower, showing us its deforming monster like face.

The Nato Soldiers in the office room wince in pain, as they put their hands over their ears.

Walther jumps out of the window of the third store.

Behind him, the Monster implodes into itself. And like a black hole it sucks in parts of the building.

Elis is standing safely on the main road, watching the implosion.

ELIS:

"The death..."

Because of it's attracting effect, Walthers fall is slowed down, and he falls safely on his knees.

ELIS(CONT'D):

"of a God."

Nato Soldier three gets sucked in by the source of the implosion. He gets spaghettified by it.

ELIS(CONT'D)(O.S.):

"It's so..."

The entire building gets sucked in. And Elis looks at it in awe, while people in the background are running away. Screaming and crying in horror.

ELIS(CONT'D):

"Magnificent."

Then the implosion turns into an explosion, and dirt is blown all upon the city.

People who are running away are painted in dust

The BUTCHER, looking from the backdoor of his butchery up to the explosion, is painted in dust.

The TEENAGER, looking from the main road up to the explosion, is painted in dust.

The sign saying "Welcome to BENTON CITY" is covered in dust.

A fire department truck on the main road is covered in dust.

A black Cadillac in front of Alex his apartment is covered in dust.
