A Dark Day In Both Worlds (Pt. 2)
(Jon is standing on the sidewalk out in front of his house impatiently tapping his foot. After several minutes Tareq comes into sight waddling up the sidewalk to Jon�s right. Jon intensely stares at him for a moment, then looks to the ground. He begins furiously biting his nails. He looks back to Tareq and then to his left where there is an empty sidewalk with flowers suddenly sprouting out of the ground along it�s edges. Just then a rainbow shoots over the pathway. Jon squints up at the shining sun overhead)

Jon- Is the sun....smiling?

(Jon takes a long look a the inviting path to his left before looking back to Tareq who has moved a lot closer. Dark clouds rush across the sky and just as quickly as the flowers had popped from the ground, they wilted and died. Rain begins to poor down and a giant blast of thunder echoes through the neighborhood.)

Jon- Yep...

Tareq- Hey Jon! Good to see you buddy, it�s been awhile, It�s as if you forgot I exist...

Jon- Yeah, well it happens. Anyway, Chris and Nick have gone AWOL again and I have a real bad feeling about it this time...Do you...

(Jon winces, fighting to get the words out)

Jon- Want....to be...my....sidekick...

(Jon violently rubs his face)

Tareq- Sure! Wow I�ve always-

Jon- Look, just get in the side-cab and lets go.

(Tareq jumps in the little side-cab attached to a olive green motorcycle)

Tareq- Wow, nice wheels

(Jon stares blankly at Tareq for a long moment before getting on the Motorcycle and driving off.)
