CUT TO:
EXT. THE WOODS- JUST OUTSIDE OF SALEM TOWN- THUNDER FRONT.
Three women, one white woman dressed as a pilgrim, SARAH OSBURN, another white woman whose all dirty with her hair messed up and wearing old black clothing, SARAH GOOD, and one black woman dressed in what looks like brown rags and a head band, and 3 elbow bands, TITUBA, hold hands forming a triangle around a camp fire and chanting.
AD LIB
(chanting)
We invoke the presence of the arch
demon of darkness, the brutal master
of pain, torture, and evil demonic
malice. Bringer of the dark higherarchy
we invite you into our circle, Boracus
hell�s general, give us this miracle.
The fire turns white and starts to glow. It burst up into a pillar of white energy and Boracus materializes in the pillar. The pillar dims away and Boracus looks at the three woman who slowly step back out of shock and fear.
BORACUS
Your afraid of me, that�s good. You
felt my presence in this town tonight
and you summoned me into your circle
that shows your powers to be strong.
And I sense that you�re willing to bow
down to me and surrender your souls,
that�s smart. Now what is it you want?!
OSBURN
I am Sarah Osburn the founder of this
coven. I have trained other girls in
this village to follow the way of magic.
The voodoo triumvirate is in Salem tonight.
With the help of our chanting, Salem
started to become a mystical barrier.
With the help of the girls chanting, the
voodoo triumvirate was able to engulf
Salem which intern disabled the Predator�s
powers which intern greatly increased
yours. So you hold up your end of the
bargain per the agreement.
Boracus quickly grabs Sarah Osburn�s neck with a snarl and tightens his grip as she slowly chokes.
BORACUS
I made no such agreement with you,
witch! If you want to be my servants,
you need to dedicate and contribute
all to me. Even your spit! I came
because you invoked me. You want me.
To join me I need your souls. Once I
have your life force to empower me,
then, I will reward you. But not before!!
Boracus pushes Sarah Osburn back but Sarah Good catches her.
TITUBA
Master!
Boracus looks at the black woman with a snarl and she staggers back.
TITUBA
I am Tituba from Barbados. I have
instructed these women in the ways
of black magic. I had a vision of
your plan to increase your powers
and I sought to help you so that
we may be agents in your dark conquest.
GOOD
Yes. If you permit us to join with
you, people will finally have to
take us seriously. I am Sarah Good.
You have no idea what it is to be a
woman in a mans world. We are treated
like property, slaves. A council of men
governed even the Predator. If you
accept us, we will use the powers
you give us to greatly develop our
skills and become your trinity
ultimate warriors.
BORACUS
What you ask of me is fair. Give to
get back. Very interesting. I will
grant your request but before all
else, I must have your souls. Give
them to me, and you will know power
like no other in this world has
ever known before.
The three women form a circle around Boracus and start to chant.
AD LIB
As might brings power, and lust
brings heat, we commence our souls
to your hands indeed. May the force
of our life bring your powers up to
be, dark destructive and powerful
for all eternity.
A big spark of light forms in the middle of their chest and rises out their bodies and into Boracus� hand. Boracus uses his powers to home in all the way up the road and see�s a huge mob with torches being lead to their position.
BORACUS
(smirking)
It�s been a pleasure doing business
with you, ladies.
Boracus then disappears in a huge glowing energy pillar of white fire. A couple of seconds later, the lynch mob came shouting angrily.
MOB LEADER
By the order of the Salem courts you
ladies are under arrest.
OSBURN
On what grounds?!
MOB LEADER
For the unholy practices of witchcraft.
GOOD
You haven�t the proof that we�ve been
practicing witchcraft. We wouldn�t
dare disgrace this humble Christian
town by performing such acts.
REVEREND
You are wrong! Because my own daughters
were caught doing a spell and they
blamed this influence on you!
TITUBA
Master, we would not dare--
Parris rushes to Tituba and slaps her so hard in her face that she falls down.
REVEREND
Don�t you dare speak any words to me!
I gave you a home and a way out from
the poverty stricken conditions you
were in! I treated you way beyond
the way any regular slave would be
treated. I gave you respect and
regarded you as a fellow human being
and not a piece of my property. And
how do you repay me, by contaminating
my family with dark magic?!!
TITUBA
(sobbing)
Master, I--
MOB LEADER
Silence! You will be charged with
treason under the laws of the Holy
Bible and the town charters! If I were
you, I�d make my peace with the Holy
one. Take them away!
The lynch mob shouts as they grab the three witches and force them down the road. Sarah Good looks at Betty and Abigail who have guilty expressions on their face.
GOOD
They lie!, the two girls lie!
The Lynch mob shouts louder as they push the ladies away even harder.
GOOD
They lie! We may have open the
door but they had to walk through!
Don�t you see! They knew what they
were doing! They willingly
participated in dark mystical acts!
Take them too! TAKE THEM TOO!!!
T.K. (o.s.)
From that moment on, demonic activity
spawned out of control in Salem. The
three women were put to trial pending
the dark acts of witchcraft. At the
conclusion of those trials, they were
burned at the stake. More and more
studying witches and warlocks came out
to practice their powers. The town
became filled with high amounts of
unsolved mysteries of natural human
malice and supernatural paranormal
phenomena's influenced by dark
sortileges that attract these evils
like a moth to a flame. Today, Salem
is in the grasps of the forces of darkness.
A strong hold of evil where fear,
tournament, and death has become a way
of life that hasn't changed for over 300
years.(actual images shown)
A close-up of one of the burning witches is shown and she screams in agony as her flesh melts off. The thunder crackles as the setting�
CUT TO:
EXT. CITY LIMIT ROAD- THE GROUP TALKING
JEFF
Right. So it was the Salem Witches
that started all this?
T.K.
Yes. This is the road leading to the
house of their coven. There they
practiced their craft with three witch
elders to guide them. And they became
very skilled in magic. In fact, there
it is up ahead.
They all see an old abandoned half burned down house up the road. As they walk up to the house, thunder starts to thrash across the sky.
CUT TO:
INT. INSIDE THE MOONLIT HOUSE- GROUP WALKING UP THE STAIRS.
All of them coming in through the doors and going straight up the stairs.
T.K.
Legend has it the girls thoroughly
prepared for an initiation ritual
in one of the upper rooms to welcome
the power of the dark spirits into
their bodies and to surround Salem
with their evil.
CUT TO:
INT. THE PREPARATION ROOM- THE GROUP COMING IN.
As the thunder thrashes again, they all look around the room with caution.
T.K.
Here�s the spot where they chanted
numerous incantations to prepare
their minds and bodies for the
initiation.
The spot looks like it was struck by lightning because it�s a burned circle. T.K. then starts to roll his eyes to the back of his sockets.
T.K.
Oh spirits of evil!, do not take
our life�s blood! Instead, take
our souls and commence them into
your hands! So that we may serve
you instead of embracing death.
It has begun!!
Luke turns around with red eyes and fangs.
LUKE
RAHHHHH!
AD LIB #1
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
AD LIB#2
Ah, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!
VICKY
How could you scare us like that?!!
NICK
They got you guys pretty good. Ha, Ha.
LUKE
Oh please. You were screaming louder
than the girls.
NICK
Only to play along.
T.K.
Right.
VICKY
I can�t believe you guys could make
something like that up!
T.K.
We didn�t make it up. It�s a real legend.
LUKE
But how many would believe a
stupid legend like that. Ha, ha, ha!
As the thunder thrashes, a light blue demon (identical to the one in the park) appears in back of Luke growling. It plows its nails through his back so that they come out through his chest. The demon picks Luke up as blood runs down his body while he�s screaming and it cuts his head off. The group screams in fear as they watch. They all run out the room.
CUT TO:
INT. THE FRONT HALL
They rush down the stairs to the front door but they�re locked in. They all take through separate ways in the house. Jeff goes through a door at the side of the staircase.
CUT TO:
INT. A STUDY
As he enters the study, he runs to the door at the opposite side of the room, he stumbles over boxes and old paintings. As he opens the door, the demon is on the other side. Jeff screams as he stumbles back and falls to the floor. He gets up, and runs out the study.
CUT TO:
INT. THE FRONT HALL
He quickly runs up the stairs to another bedroom.
CUT TO:
INT. THE OTHER BEDROOM
He quickly locks the door and pushes the old bed in front of it to barricade the door. He hears the floorboards aching outside then sees that someone is trying to force their way in. Jeff staggers back in fright and bumps into the demon that is in back of him. He screams as the demon scratches the side of his face. The demon then rips out Jeff�s throat and throws him out the window.
CUT TO:
INT. OUTSIDE THE BEDROOM DOOR
Nick is in front of it hearing the window break. He races down the stairs and into the kitchen.
CUT TO:
INT. THE KITCHEN
He nervously breaks the door down and runs outside.
CUT TO:
EXT. THE BACKYARD
As he turns the corner, he see�s Jeff�s body with the throat ripped out. Nick starts to scream. As he runs back around the corner of the house, he bumps into the demon. The demon grabs Nick by his shirt as he screams struggling to get free. The demon stick�s it�s fingers in Jeff�s eyes, puts its hand in his mouth, and rips off his jaw. The demon disappears.
CUT TO:
EXT. THE FRONTYARD
Vicky and Margie climb out the front window and quickly run off the property as they cry. As they get on the road, they scream as they bump into T.K.
VICKY
(sobbing)
T.K.!, you made it!
They all hug.
VICKY
(voice cracking)
Quick, we have to go to the police!
T.K.
Are you crazy?!
VICKY
What?
T.K.
If we go to the police, they�ll
haul our Asses to jail.
MARGIE
(voice cracking)
What do you mean?!
T.K.
Think about it Margie. If we go
to the police telling them a monster
killed our friends, they�ll hold
us responsible and take us to jail.
VICKY
Are you saying we�re just gonna
leave them there?!
T.K.
They�re already dead.
VICKY
Wait a minute. These are our best
friends! They could still be alive!
MARGIE
We can tell the police everything
that happened and they�ll investigate.
T.K.
And what happens when they don�t find
evidence that it was a monster, huh?!
They�ll start suspecting us! Then
their families will blame us!
VICKY
There�s no way we could have done the
damage that monster has done even if
we did kill them and the police will
determine that!
T.K.
Or they�ll determine we were practicing
black magic and charge us with violating
human right charters!
MARGIE
T.K., it�s not too late. We can go
to the police! They�ll believe us.
T.K.
Look!, we can stand here and wait
for the monster to come and kill us,
or we can get our asses out
of here and never talk about this
again. But either way, this discussion
ends now!
T.K. runs down the road.
MARGIE
Maybe he�s right.
VICKY
What?!
MARGIE
They�ll never believe that a monster
attacked us. And if monsters are real
and people have died because of them,
there has never been any evidence or
the world would have known about them
by now.
VICKY
Margie--
MARGIE
Let�s just go. We never came here. Nick,
Jeff, and Luke got lost on the way and
we couldn�t find them.
VICKY
But you know that�s not what--
MARGIE
It�s either that, or tell the truth and
let them takes us to a mental institution.
I don�t know about you, but that�s not
how I want to spend the rest of my young
life.
Margie runs down the road as Vicky takes one more shocking look at the house and runs down the road. As the lightning thrashes, Marcus is looking at them run down the road then see�s a little boy in black pajama�s with yellow stars on it, singing.
CHILD
Twinkle, twinkle, little star. How I
wonder where you are. Darkness has
consumed your light. Like the devil
in disguise. Twinkle, twinkle, little
star, hell is going to erupt.
Marcus looks at the boy in confusion.
CUT TO:
MATH CLASS- THIRD PERIOD.
Marcus immediately wakes up at his desk with a confused expression on his face. The students are talking amongst themselves. There�s an insult contest going on in the back.
BACK STUDENT #1
Shut yo yellow teeth up! They
need to drown that fat motha� of
yours for taking the plates of those
hungry little kids! Lord knows she
eats enough for shamoo!
BACK STUDENT #2
My fat motha?! What about yours?!
She comin' to the wedding
singing like she Kelly Price! Ain�t nobody
ask her to sing! She sounded like a fat
mess! And yo mama ain�t have no business
being anything else but fat!
THE WHOLE BACK
Ohhhhhhhhhhh!!!
Two guys and two girls come into the classroom with the hall pass and puts it next to the teacher whose just sitting their reading a book.
GUY #1
Sorry we took so long in the bathroom.
We had an unexpected delay.
GIRL #1
But it�s no big. We eventually came.
As they go to their seats the guys throw out condoms in the wastebasket. And in the front, a group of students are having a rap contest as they make their beats by banging on the table.
FRONT STUDENT #1
Fuelin� up my drive, smokin� the nick
to buy me some time, keepin� it high
and live all night, any Rican girl
spotted so fine.
FRONT STUDENT #2
Blazin� does the trick, oh mami try papi,
make you scream, oh mami you poppin�,
we consented all naked, girl praise it,
everything we wanted, we blazed it.
FRONT STUDENT #3
Drive by with a diamond bracelet, no
need to deal with a chicken head,
no need to be shy, we can do it high,
just remember to be out, by five.
WHOLE FRONT ROW
Ohhhhhhhhh!, iiiiiight!!
The teacher finishes writing on the board �Homework- Fundamental Math Book PG 73 1-20�. The bell rings and students yell out �fight�, �Let�s get to that fight�. Marcus pulls over a near by student.
MARCUS
What fight are they talking about?
STUDENT
Well, didn�t you here? Some jerk
helped a student in the front of
the school this morning fight off
a gang. So the gang is gonna jump
that student in the locker room.
Marcus rushes out of the class and into the hallway.
CUT TO:
INT. LOCKER ROOM- RAFAEL FIGHTING.
Rafael takes on 5 guys from this morning. The locker room is filled with boys cheering.
Rafael dunks from a swing by the first guy. He punches him in the stomach, backhands his face and cross punches him knocking him out. Rafael jabs the next guy with his left and forward punches him with the right. The guy throws 2 punches but Rafael grabs both his wrists, knee�s him in the groin, give him a butt, spins around and back hands him across the face.
Marcus enters the locker room and makes it to the front of the crowd. The next guy grabs Rafael from behind. Another guy draws a dagger. Marcus grabs his wrist, twist it, and pulls him toward the ground making him hit his head on the locker and passing out. Mateo grabs Marcus from behind. Marcus elbows him in the stomach, and flips him over by his hand.
Rafael manages to push the guy off him. Rafael elbows then backhands him with the same arm, and jabs him with his right. School security comes in and takes away Rafael and the other guys.
CUT TO:
EXT. OUTSIDE OF THE SCHOOL.
Security puts Mateo into a cop car. The rest of security holds back the crowd of students that follow. Marcus barely makes it past security unnoticed. He goes to the cop car.
MARCUS
You gave me your word.
MATEO
I didn�t give you shit! And who
are you anyway?! Rafael�s protector?!
MARCUS
I protect any good person there is
from people like you.
MATEO
Well, now I�m gonna tell my superior
about you and you gonna get pulled
into this. Ain�t nobody had beef
with you. You suddenly come out of
nowhere with this super hero act and
expect things to go your way?! Well
not here.
MARCUS
Why has Rafael been targeted by your
gang? What threat could he possibly
be to you?
MATEO
I don�t gotta say shit to you. I�m the
right hand man to this gang. Your gonna
wish that you�d didn�t butt in once the
leader is done with you. You may have
been able to flip me over but angel dust
won�t save you from him.
MARCUS
I�d expect nothing less from the leader
of the Out-Law Crennumb.
Marcus begins to walk away and he turns back to Mateo. Mateo has a shocked expression oh his face.
MARCUS
Oh and Mateo, give Getto my regards.
Security then comes with the other boys from the fight.
GUARD
Hey?! What is this?! This
ain�t no time to be socializing
with your friends! You better get
on up outta here you!!
The guard pushes Marcus away.
CUT TO:
INT. DETENTION CENTER- 4TH PERIOD.
Marcus goes to the detention center where Rafael is being kept.
GUARD
Hold it, you can�t come in here
without a detention slip.
MARCUS
I came to give my friend the work
he missed during 4th period. The
teacher told me that it would be
okay as long as it was about
his schoolwork.
The guard gives Marcus the go ahead to come in and Marcus sits at a table far from the exit with Rafael.
MARCUS
Is there something wrong?
RAFAEL
Yeah, there is. Look Marcus, it�s
not that I�m not grateful for all
your help but... it�s just made
things worse with you being there.
MARCUS
I know. But I also know that there�s
something more to these attacks than
what you�re telling me. I know that
you feel embarrassed with me coming
to your rescue and I know you that
it�s only gonna make the gang try
again to do you in and I�m sorry. For
all of it. But, and I speak this from
experience, when gangs see that someone
is protecting their target, they would
try to take out the protector first.
Instead, they went after you two more
times. Why? Why are the Out-Law Crennumb
so shook by you?
RAFAEL
How did you know that it�s the Crennumb
who�s after me?
MARCUS
Because I know the way they work.
That and their leader is my brother
in law.
RAFAEL
Brother in law? Boy you really must
have gotten around in your day. I
don�t know Marcus.
MARCUS
Rafael, I am asking you to trust me.
Look, I can help. I can�t tell you
how or why but I can help.
RAFAEL
Damn. Do you usually mess around with
dangerous things that have nothing to
do with you?
MARCUS
It�s a hobby of mine. Now tell me. Tell
me why Getto is after you.
RAFAEL
Getto�s motives toward me are few
but important. At least to him.
There�s a gang who�s in conflict
with the Crennumb. The Crennumb
are known to smuggle drugs, weapons,
even new technology. This rival gang
has someone on the inside. Someone
whose relaying all Getto�s information
so that they can stop the Crennumb.
It�s an all female gang. And even
though they do their share of drug
and weapons selling, they know that
if Getto keeps having this lucky
streak with these new black market
investors, he would have control of
the entire market.
MARCUS
And who�s this rival gang?
RAFAEL
They�re called the Silver Ravens.
Marcus�s eyes widened.
RAFAEL
You know of them?
MARCUS
I know their leader Crystal.
RAFAEL
Crystal isn�t the leader anymore. She
died a year ago in a shoot out with
the Crennumb and her sister took over.
MARCUS
Her sister Marisol?
RAFAEL
You know Marisol?!
MARCUS
I know of her. I saw her once when
she was 11 years old.
RAFAEL
Well, now she�s 16. And has lived up
to her sisters reputation.
MARCUS
Okay. But where do you fit into
all of this?
RAFAEL
Marisol is my girlfriend.
MARCUS
Oh shit.
RAFAEL
Yeah. Getto thinks that if he can
get to me he can get to her.
MARCUS
But that isn�t his style. If the
Silver Ravens are as threatening
to Getto as they sound, he would�ve
dealt directly with them. Why is he
targeting you?
RAFAEL
Marisol is in hiding. Nobody can find
her. So Getto springs these attacks
on me so--
MARCUS
He can flush her out.
RAFAEL
Hence his motives. Either he flushes
her out with my beating maybe death,
or he figures I�ll break under the
pain and give him the information
he needs.
MARCUS
I have to say that Getto has gotten
very cleaver at this game.
RAFAEL
I would have to agree.
MARCUS
But still, he could never be more
cleaver than me. And he could never
be so cleaver as to not slip up or
have any flaws. That comes only when
you immerse yourself in the game for
a long while. He hasn�t been in the
game that long.
RAFAEL
How do you know?
MARCUS
Because I taught him everything he
knows. How long do you have to be here?
RAFAEL
Until lunch. The principal knows that
I didn�t start it and doesn�t see any
reason to suspend me since I was
defending myself against five guys.
MARCUS
Okay. I have to get going anyhow. I
will handle Getto for you. In the
meantime, be like Marisol and stay
out of sight.
As Marcus gets up, Rafael grabs his wrist.
RAFAEL
I don�t think you should keep doing
this Marcus. It�ll only make things worse.
MARCUS
Mateo told me before they took him
away, that I was already dragged into
it. So now it�s my fight as much as it
is yours. I don�t want you to get into
a confrontation with Getto. You have
very good hand skills but it would take
alot more than hand skills to win in a
fight with Getto. It takes complete
attention.
RAFAEL
I can do that.
MARCUS
It also takes quick calculating to
anticipate what his next moves are
gonna be.
RAFAEL
I can try to pull that off too.
MARCUS
You also gotta� be strapped with weapons
so you can always reach for one and if
the opportunity arises when the only
course of action is to kill him you have
to do it with no hesitations or thoughts.
RAFAEL
I could do that if I have to.
MARCUS
And you have to not care, if you live
or die.
Rafael stays with a serious face as Marcus begins to walk out.
CUT TO:
INT. SOUTH SALEM- CLOCK TOWER.
Boracus the arch demon is directing his minions. This time, Boracus has on black boots, black leather pants, and a black leather vest with metal decorations on it.
BORACUS
Well, did you bring me more vassals?
DEMON
No master. They got away.
BORACUS
You fools!! How could you let this
happen?!
DEMON
We were stopped last night. By
someone most likely to be the
Predator.
BORACUS
Marcus! It's been too long. He must
have killed the ones on the hunt so we
can�t find him. We must not let him
meddle in our plans.
DEMON
I will never let that happen master.
I'll die first.
BORACUS
If you let him stop you again, you
will die. But, at my hand.
DEMON
I haven�t any way to stop him. He
fights very well.
BORACUS
It's been along time since I encountered
the Predator. But this time, I won�t be
defeated so easily. Even the most
powerful opponent has a weakness, and
I know Marcus'.
DEMON
And what weakness is that, Master?
BORACUS
You'll see. Call the others. I have a
little job for you. Ha, ha, ha, ha,
ha, ha, ha.
CUT TO:
INT. HIDEOUT OF THE OUTLAW CRENNUMB- EARLY AFTERNOON
We now see the much talked about GETTO, having 'fun' with two beautiful women.
Mateo rushes into the room without knocking and almost in sequence, Getto picks up a thirty-two caliber and shoots a bullet at Mateo that almost hits him in the left cheek.
GETTO
(without stopping)
I thought I told you that I was
gonna be busy for the next couple
of hours!
MATEO
My bad. But there were complications.
School Security caught us and--
GETTO
Are you tellin� me that you was
handled by some dumb ass
school security guard?!
MATEO
Hello no! It was because of Rafael�s
new bodyguard that I got son�d!
GETTO
A bodyguard? You gonna have to
do better than that.
MATEO
Even if the bodyguard is Marcus?!
ANGLE: GETTO�S EYES WIDENING
Getto immediately stopped what he was doing.
GETTO
(addressing the girls)
Go! Get outta here, be out!!
Getto puts on a black robe and walks up to Mateo.
GETTO
(angry tone)
Where did you here that name?
MATEO
Why? Who is this guy suppose to--
GETTO
Answer the question!!!
MATEO
He�s just someone who moved into town.
He screwed up our first and second wave
on Rafael and then flipped me over
from trying to kill him. And then he
said he knew you! Who is this guy
suppose to be?!
GETTO
Marcus. That bastard was my mentor. He
taught me everything I know. He created
the Crennumb. But when he killed my
sister he became my enemy, I took
half of the army with me in the hope
that one-day we�ll meet again and I�ll
be able to avenge her.
MATEO
But why has he taken a sudden interest
in Rafael?
GETTO
Marcus always had a soft spot of compa-
ssion in his heart for nerdy wimpy
punks who couldn�t defend themselves. It
was that nobility that kept him from
being the biggest gangster the world has
ever seen.(smiles sinisterly) But this
can all work to our advantage. With Marcus
in the picture Marisol just might feel
secure enough to come out into the open. I
think it�s time that we paid a visit to our
old friend Marcus.
MATEO
Why? So he can wipe the floor with us again?
Getto grabs Mateo by his neck.
GETTO
Are you telling me that Marcus Peron will
be able to pull one over on me?!
MATEO
(straining)
I didn�t mean to speak out of line!
GETTO
So when we see him are we gonna make him
pay for crossing our paths?!
MATEO
(straining)
Severely.
GETTO
(throwing him back)
I�m glad we agree. See to it. Get the men
ready to face him after school. It�s on.
