The afternoon sun casts a warm glow on the lively
schoolyard, where students laugh and play, their energy
vibrant yet fleeting.
INT. RYDE EAST PRIMARY SCHOOL - DAY
In a corner of the bustling school, REX (13, introspective)
sits alone on a silver bench, engrossed in his book. Nearby,
a group of boys—AIDEN, JOSHUA, JAKE, CRAIG, and CONNER—spot
Rex. They exchange knowing smirks and swagger over, their
movements deliberate and predatory.
AIDEN (13), confident yet displaying a hint of insecurity
under his bravado, steps forward.
AIDEN
(Voice low, a
mocking edge)
Look who's hiding behind a paperback
fortress. Is that your shield against
reality, Rex?
Jake, eager to impress Aiden, lunges to snatch Rex's book,
his expression a mix of excitement and an undercurrent of
anxiety.
JAKE
(Grinning as he
flips through the
pages)
Ooh, let me guess, another epic
quest? Are you playing hero in your
little fantasy land again?
As laughter spills out, it’s a mix of bravado and
unacknowledged tension. The boys press closer, mirroring a
wolf pack, their own vulnerabilities lurking beneath.
Conner, slight and desperate for acceptance, leans toward
Aiden, seeking reassurance.
CONNER
(Tentatively,
glancing at Aiden)
What’s the matter, Rex? Always lost
in your stories? Maybe you’re just
scared to join the real world with
us.
Rex feels the weight of their words, each taunt cutting
deeper than just mockery.
Craig, who often mirrors Aiden’s lead, rolls his eyes,
attempting to mask his own discomfort with a touch of dry
humor.
CRAIG
(Smirking)
Yeah, Rex, how's that "extraordinary"
life you read about? You know, we
actually live it. Not everyone gets a
happy ending, right?
Aiden leans in closer, venom in his tone.
AIDEN
(Tauntingly, with a
chilling whisper)
It must be exhausting being your own
best friend, huh? Just you and your
sad little stories, while we have
real adventures.
Within the boys’ jeers, there's an underlying panic; each is
afraid of being overlooked, of becoming the outcasts
themselves. Aiden battles his chaotic home life by asserting
control, Jake desperately seeks Aiden's approval, and Conner
fights between loyalty and moral doubt.
Rex squirms, discomfort gnawing at him, but a spark of
defiance flickers in his eyes. Just as the tension reaches
its peak, the school bell rings, abruptly cutting through
the noise.
The bullies hesitate, Aiden stealing a glance back at Jake,
looking for a sign of strength.
AIDEN (cont'd)
(Stepping back as he
throws one last jab)
Later, bookworm. Hope you find a
sidekick in those pages of yours.
Josh joins in, masking his insecurities behind bravado.
JOSH
Yeah, there’s always a sequel, Rex.
Don’t worry, I’m sure you've got this
one figured out!
As they retreat, Rex watches them go, feeling the heat of
their cruelty blend with a burgeoning storm of resilience
within him—a silent battle of isolation, anger, and
determination reflected in his eyes.

A Moment of Encouragement
INT. SIDEWALK - DAY
The sidewalk stretches before REX, who walks with a heavy
demeanor. His casual clothes hang loosely, and his hands are
stuffed deep into his pockets. Each footfall thuds against
the pavement, echoing the turmoil within him.
As he rounds the corner, a kindly face catches his eye—a
PASSERBY in his 50s, TOM. His perceptive gaze lingers on
Rex, a spark of recognition in his expression.
TOM
(Slowing as he
approaches)
You look like you’ve been running
from something, haven't you?
Rex’s eyes dart away, surprised by the intrusion. He shifts,
awkwardly scratching the back of his neck, an unconscious
gesture of discomfort.
REX
(Barely meeting
Tom’s gaze)
Just... trying to clear my head.
TOM nods, stepping closer. His relaxed posture exudes a calm
confidence that Rex lacks.
TOM
I know that feeling well. Sometimes,
it’s the weight we carry that weighs
us down the most.
Rex’s expression falters, his shoulders slumping even
further. He glances around, the vibrant world of passersby
contrasting harshly with his isolation.
REX
It just... feels so heavy sometimes.
Tom takes a moment, the slight crinkle of his eyes revealing
a shared understanding. He leans against a nearby lamppost,
hands folded casually, as if to foster trust.
TOM
(Softly)
I spent years battling whispers
telling me I didn’t belong. Found it
easier to run... but what I needed to
do was face it.
Rex fidgets with the lining of his jacket, the fabric
clutched tightly in his fingers—a physical manifestation of
his anxiety.
REX
(Voice low)
What if I can’t? What if they’re
right?
Tom’s gaze grows steady, his own past hidden in the depths
of his eyes. He steps a fraction closer, lowering his voice,
almost conspiratorial.
TOM
(Encouragingly)
They’re not right. Your strength
comes from within. You just have to
let it show.
For a moment, Rex’s eyes reflect the flicker of defiance as
he catches Tom’s steady gaze. He uncrosses his arms,
loosening the tension.
Then, as if inspired by the truth behind Tom’s words, Rex’s
posture shifts. A pulse of determination flows through him,
echoing in the slight tightening of his fists.
Suddenly overwhelmed by a rush of emotion, Rex nods firmly,
yet a glimmer of fear lingers in his eyes. He pushes off the
lamppost.
REX
I need to go—find a way to face it.
Without waiting for an answer, driven by a mix of anxiety
and newfound hope, Rex breaks into a run towards Buffalo
Park, his pace surging with determination.
As he runs, a montage of Tom’s past—hints of scars, shadows
of his own struggles—echoes in the back of Rex's mind,
connecting their journeys through the invisible threads of
resilience.

Chasing Hope
INT. PARK - DAY
Buffalo Park unfolds in serene beauty, showcasing vibrant
playgrounds filled with laughter and the distant cheers from
a soccer field. The air is alive with the buzz of
activity—rustling leaves, chirping birds, and the rhythmic
cadence of BMX bikes on nearby tracks. Amidst this lively
backdrop, Rex sits alone on a weathered bench, his posture
heavy with despair. His haunted eyes scan the ground, as if
hoping to find pieces of himself scattered in the dirt.
A solitary tear slips down Rex's cheek, a silent testament
to his struggles. Today, he is not just seeking solace; he
is yearning for a transformative spark, a flicker of hope to
guide him back to himself. But with each breath, the weight
of his past wraps tighter around him, suffocating the
flicker of possibility.
Suddenly, the sun's warm embrace is disrupted by a sharp
streak of light across the sky. Rex jolts upright, his heart
racing. The fleeting vision pulls at something deep within,
igniting a mix of confusion and anticipation.
REX
(Whispering,
entranced)
What is that?
As the meteor plummets toward Earth, it tears through the
atmosphere, trailing fire and shimmering debris—a blazing
harbinger of change. Rex stands, caught in its ethereal
light, feeling an uncontainable pull, like gravity awoken
from slumber. Urgency courses through him as he watches it
descend, a beacon of hope beckoning for him to chase it.
In that instant, something primal awakens within Rex—a surge
of determination mixed with trepidation. He takes off
towards the impact site, driven not just by curiosity but a
desperate need for transformation, for a resurgence of self.

Awakening in the Swamp
INT. PARK - SWAMP - DAY
Rex gallops into the murky swamps of Buffalo Park, each
footfall echoing the heartbeat of his anxiety. The tranquil
beauty juxtaposes the tempest within, a confrontation
brewing in the depths of his soul. The air thickens as he
pushes forward, drawn closer to the source of that
otherworldly light.
REX
(Urgently,
whispering)
Where are you? Where have you landed?
As he nears the meteor, a pulsating aura erupts from it,
casting eerie shadows across the swamp. The ground trembles
beneath him, vibrating with electricity—an invitation
cloaked in danger. Rex kneels, entranced, feeling an
indescribable connection pulling at him like an unbreakable
tether.
With trepidation, he reaches out, fingers brushing the cool,
alien surface. The meteor thrums beneath his touch, sending
a shockwave of sensation coursing through him. Energy
envelops him, igniting a kaleidoscope of warmth and cold
that dances along his skin—a visceral prelude to his
transformation.
Suddenly, pain explodes within as a surge of alien energy
envelops him, overwhelming his senses. Every nerve ignites,
and Rex's breath hitches as the transformation begins, his
body convulsing in response to the meteor's dark promise.
Time stretches and warps, chaos theory unraveling in the
intersection of his humanity and the wild, alien forces.

In a visceral jolt, he awakens amid the murky swamp, a
dreadfully altered reality crashing over him.
He grapples with disbelief as the weight of his
transformation settles in—the meteor's impact echoing within
him, foreshadowing the challenges to come.
The screen cuts to black, leaving the audience grappling
with the monumental changes that await him.

Hunters Hill High School stands majestic against the
backdrop of the Lane Cove River, bustling with activity. The
camera glides over groups of students, laughter ringing
through the air.
INT. HUNTERS HILL HIGH SCHOOL - DAY
The sprawling campus features soccer fields, classrooms, and
a vibrant canteen. In the midst of the bustling environment,
REX (17, strong but haunted by insecurity) finds a secluded
corner near the assembly hall, his backpack hanging heavily
from one shoulder. His brow is furrowed as he observes the
ebb and flow of student life around him.
INT. HUNTERS HILL HIGH SCHOOL - FIGTREE OVAL - DAY
Rex stands in the shade of a tree, his backpack weighing
heavily on one shoulder. Students laugh and socialize around
him, but he feels like an outsider in this vibrant world—an
observer, not a participant.
He catches sight of NADINE (17, genuine and warm),
surrounded by friends, the sunlight catching her smile. A
flicker of hope ignites in him, but it’s quickly followed by
doubt.
REX
(Nervously to
himself)
Don’t mess this up. Just go and say
something. Anything…
Taking a deep breath, Rex strides toward her, heart
pounding.
REX (cont'd)
(Sounding unsure)
Nadine!
Nadine turns, her surprise fading into a bright smile.
NADINE
Rex! I was just thinking about our
science project!
(Excitedly)
Let’s tackle it together. I really
want your insights.
Rex feels warmth flood through him, his cheeks flushing with
her encouragement.
REX
(Genuine)
You’ve always believed in me, haven’t
you?
At that moment, FRED (18, entitled, and fiercely protective
of his turf) struts in with CHRIS (18, arrogant), noticing
the interaction. Their faces darken, and Fred approaches
with malicious intent.
FRED
(Sneering)
Look at this, the loser and his
backup plan.
Rex's heart races, but he steels himself, determination
flickering in his eyes.
REX
(Defiantly)
Just because you can't keep up
doesn’t mean you need to insult
others, Fred.
Nadine tenses, sensing the brewing storm.
FRED
(Mockingly)
You think she’s actually into you? As
if she’d ever pick you over someone
who matters.
Rex’s breath hitches; he struggles to keep his resolve in
the face of ridicule.
NADINE
(Stepping in)
That’s unfair, Fred. Rex deserves
respect, just like anyone else.
Fred steps closer, his posture aggressive, his voice
dropping to a menacing whisper.
FRED
(Intensely)
Respect comes from action, not hiding
in shadows, Rex.
Rex’s apprehension sharpens into indignation, fully looking
Fred in the eyes.
REX
(Firm, but slightly
trembling)
No, it comes from realizing your
worth, even when others can’t see it.
A flicker of vulnerability breaks through Fred’s facade for
a moment, but he quickly regains control, laced with rage.
FRED
(Direct, frustration
bubbling)
Cozying up to my girl, huh? Dream on,
loser.
In an instant, Fred lunges forward, and Rex raises his arm
in defense, ready to stand firm against the tide of Fred's
insecurity and rage.
A tense silence hangs between them; the air thick with
unresolved hostility. Just then, PRINCIPAL ED (60, composed
yet authoritative) strides into the fray.
ED
(Commandingly)
What’s going on here?
The crowd stills, eyes darting between Ed, Rex, and Fred’s
simmering confrontation. Rex’s breath steadies as he feels
the support from Nadine beside him, emboldening his resolve.
ED (cont'd)
(Firmly)
This is not how we handle
differences.
The moment feels electric; the air thick with unresolved
hostility. Rex stands a bit taller, finally channeling the
inner strength he often doubts.
REX
(Barely audible, but
resolute)
I won’t be a punchline anymore.
Ed nods in affirmation, proud of Rex’s defiance. But as he
begins to address Fred further, a flicker of uncertainty
passes over Rex’s face—still haunted by the fear of being
alone again, of his past mounting against him.
ED
(Turning back to the
crowd)
Let’s be better. Together.
The stakes heighten as Rex realizes he is not just fighting
for his own dignity, but for the support of those who
believe in him.

blinds. The air is thick with unspoken tension.
Rex enters, visibly shaken, his body language tentative as
he takes a seat opposite Ed, who looks at him with a mix of
authority and genuine concern.
ED
Rex, I heard you confronted Fred. Can
you tell me what happened?
REX
(Fidgeting, his
voice trembling)
I didn’t want to... he just pushed
me—again. It feels like it’s never
going to stop.
Ed leans forward, empathy etched in his features.
ED
That must be incredibly frustrating.
But I heard Nadine spoke up for you—
that’s significant. She really sees
you, Rex.
Rex looks down, his heart fluttering at the mention of
Nadine. He fidgets with the hem of his shirt, suddenly aware
of the power her support holds.
REX
(Softly)
She’s always been there. I just... I
didn’t ask her to.
Ed maintains eye contact, determined to draw out Rex's
feelings.
ED
You have to understand, her support
means something. But tell me, do you
think it’s just friendship?
Rex's eyes widen, and he shifts in his seat, caught off
guard by the question. The silence stretches, filled with
unspoken words.
REX
(Stammering)
I don’t want to ruin it! I’ve never
had someone like her... Maybe it is
more than that.
Ed nods, sensing the weight of Rex's vulnerability.
ED
Rex, that’s a powerful realization.
You have so much potential, but
holding back only gets you hurt.
Remember, asking for help isn’t
weakness; it’s a brave step.
Rex's gaze sharpens, the flicker of resolve growing
brighter.
REX
(Voice steadying)
Maybe it’s time my parents knew
everything. They always taught me to
be true, no matter how painful. I
can’t hide anymore.
Ed's expression reflects admiration for Rex's choice,
sensing a turning point.
ED
That’s a courageous move. I’ll be
here to support you through it all,
however you need.
Rex exhales, relief mingling with anxiety as Ed picks up the
phone, preparing to call in Fred.
ED (cont'd)
(Into Phone)
This is Ed. Can I have Fred Ferguson
in my office, please? Thank you.
As he hangs up, Ed’s expression turns grave.
ED (cont'd)
I need to discuss this with him, too.
Rex watches as Ed prepares, a mix of dread and anticipation
settling within him.
REX
(Timid but firm)
Thank you, sir. I just... I keep
thinking, what if Fred lashes out
again? What if I’m not strong enough?
ED
If he does, I’ll handle it. You need
to remember—standing up for yourself
isn’t just about strength; it’s about
knowing your worth. You have allies
now. You’re not alone in this.
Rex nods, fortified by Ed’s assurance, yet the weight of
impending confrontation hangs in the air.
REX
(Resolute)
Can I head back to class now? I... I
want to put this behind me.
ED
(With a decisive
nod)
Absolutely. Go ahead.
As Rex leaves, there's a newfound resolve in his stride, a

side-by-side at a bench, dissecting frogs.
Nadine watches Rex’s focused movements as he skillfully
makes an incision. Her admiration is evident, but her gaze
also carries an undercurrent of concern.
NADINE
You make this look so easy, Rex. It’s
kind of amazing.
REX

hiding his internal
turmoil)
Thanks. Want to give it a try?
She shakes her head, a playful smile forming, but her eyes
reflect deeper thoughts.
NADINE
No way! I’ll leave the surgical
skills to you.
Nadine leans in slightly, her tone shifting to one of
genuine concern.
NADINE (cont'd)
Seriously though, how have you been
handling everything?
Rex's gaze falters, a flicker of anxiety crossing his
features as he notices a few students—a group led by
FRED—whispering and throwing glances in their direction,
their smirks revealing they are plotting something.
REX
(Fidgeting with a
frog leg, his hands
trembling just
slightly)
I’m okay... I think. It's been a lot
lately.
Nadine reaches out, placing a comforting hand on his arm,
her expression softening.
NADINE
You don’t have to go through this
alone. I’m here if you want to talk—
REX
(Cutting in, voice
low and filled with
fear)
I just feel like I’m burdening you.
Nadine’s expression tightens with empathy, her brow
furrowing slightly. She knows how Rex wrestles with feelings
of inadequacy, especially under the watchful eyes of Fred
and the others.
NADINE
You’re not a burden, Rex. We help
each other, right? That’s what
friends do.
Rex looks surprised, warmth flooding his cheeks amid the
growing tension in the classroom. Their classmates snicker,
Fred grinning derisively from the back.
REX
(Discomfort invading
his smile)
Really? That means a lot.
Rex flinches, his insecurity rising to the surface. His
internal monologue speaks louder: What if I’m not strong
enough? He looks away, reminded of Fred's taunts that haunt
his thoughts.
NADINE

voice steady)
Of course! Let’s hang out later—just
us friends, okay?
Rex’s uncertainty flickers again as the tension crackles
around them, Fred’s group continuing their taunts.
REX
No pressure, though, especially if
Fred—
NADINE
(Interrupting
firmly)
No pressure, promise! I just enjoy
your company.
Rex's face brightens, though the anxiety still lingers,
shadows of doubt clawing at him. He glances back at Fred,
whose smirk turns into a glower.
REX
(Gathering courage)
Then tonight it is. Let’s do the
movies!
As Viki speaks, Rex’s focus drifts again, lingering on
Nadine, yet he can’t shake off the taunting from Fred’s
group.
VIKI (cont'd)
The bell's about to ring. Pack up
your things, everyone.
As students start gathering their things, a surprising
moment occurs: the dissected frog they were working on
appears to have miraculously healed.
Nadine's eyes widen, awe coloring her features as she turns
to Rex, who looks equally astonished yet still stricken by
the tension surrounding him.
NADINE
(Delighted)
Wow, look at that! You must be some
kind of frog whisperer!
Rex chuckles, but the laughter is cut short when Viki’s
stern tone returns, underscoring the pressure mounting on
Rex.
VIKI
Alright, class, line up quietly. And
remember, the last one out is on
clean-up duty!
Tension surrounds Rex as the bell rings, a warning of the
chaos that looms. He and Nadine exchange a supportive
glance, the underlying fear evident despite their
connection.
NADINE

No matter what happens, I’m with you,

Rex nods, vulnerability shining through his uncertainty as
he watches Fred and his friends whisper to each other,
preparing to pounce.

breath,
determination mixing
with anxiety)
Thanks, Nadine. That really means a
lot.
As the scene shifts, the warning shadows dance around them—a
reminder of the struggles yet to come. While laughter fills

The scene ends with the students exiting, Fred’s lingering
presence a clear foreshadowing of the challenges that await
Rex and Nadine, a battlefield of emotions brewing just

It’s not just about you, Fred. You’ve

Sometimes, but books are there for

delinquent boys: Josh, Craig, Jake, Conner, and Aiden. The
air is charged with a mix of bravado and unspoken tension.
FRED
You guys heard about Rex Rawson?
JOSH
Yeah, that guy. Thinks he’s too good
for the rest of us.
(Leans in, eyes
glinting)
Feels like we should show him he’s
not.
CRAIG

He’s into books. Probably couldn’t

JAKE
Weaklings like him don’t put up much

CONNER

uncertain)
Is this really the best plan?
AIDEN
(Smirking)
What? Thinking maybe we’d actually be
fair?
Fred’s bravado slips a bit, revealing a hint of desperation.
FRED
He beat us last time. We need to show
him he can’t just walk all over us.
Fred’s voice rises slightly, fueled by a mix of fear and
anger.
JOSH

laugh)
You mean like last time?
FRED

his pride)
Yeah. Each time I see him with

CHRIS

And what’s the plan here?
FRED

We catch him alone. Make him think
we’re just here to hang.
AIDEN

You sure about this? What if it gets
out of hand?
FRED
(Forcing a grin)
I need this. I can’t keep feeling
like a loser.
The group exchanges glances, weighing Fred’s neediness
against their own uncertainty.
CONNER

contemplative)
Sounds risky.
Fred, feeling the weight of vulnerability, tries to assert
himself.
FRED
I just want to be respected again.
(Frustration

eyes)
Not just the guy who messed up.
Aiden watches the dynamics, conflicted—he feels drawn to
Fred’s desperation but questions it all the same.
AIDEN
And you think being a bully is going
to help you with that?
FRED
(Clenching fists)
I know I’ve fallen, but I can’t keep
being in Rex's shadow.
The group nods, some hesitant, others eager.

Yeah, but it’s gotta be smooth.
FRED

Let’s make it count.
As Fred’s desperation rises, Aiden feels the tension shift.

eerily silent, chaos surging within him as he digs his hands
into his sides, pain stabbing through him, reminiscent of
past traumas.
REX

No... not again...
His knees buckle, collapsing onto the cold, damp earth. In

past pain and present pressure overwhelming his spirit.
A low growl escapes his throat—a sign of the beast waiting
to surface.
REX (cont'd)
Stop! Please...
The transformation begins. Rex drops to all fours, trembling
violently. Desperation shifts into shallow pants, guttural
undertones rising louder like a symphony of despair.
With a sickening crack, his bones protest.
REX (MONSTER VOICE)
No! Don’t let them take me—don't...
The first cracks splinter his sanity. Bones grind ominously,
fingers contorting painfully, nails splitting as claws
emerge.
Tears mix with sweat as his muscles ripple and morph, the
memories of isolation fueling his fury.
A deep growl erupts from within, drowning out the last
remnants of his humanity.

Panic rises with each violent change. His teeth sharpen into
jagged edges; his jaw distorts grotesquely, elongating into
a terrifying maw.
Claws burst from his fingertips, severing ties to his former
self.
His eyes darken, the light of humanity lost to feral rage.
When Rex rises, he stands—a towering monstrosity, reflecting
every ounce of his internal torment, every wound inflicted

The witching hour is upon him—the struggle is over, and the
beast inside has prevailed.
The roar pierces the night, echoing his torment and becoming

Tensions at Home
EXT. CHRIS'S HOUSE - NIGHT
Crickets chirp softly, the night air thick with tension.
INT. CHRIS'S HOUSE - LIVING ROOM - NIGHT
The comfortable living room, illuminated by a flickering TV,
contrasts sharply with the brewing tension beneath the
smiles.
GUS (49, tough but compassionate) lounges on the leather
couch, chuckling at the screen. Beside him, CAROLYN (48,
nurturing yet perceptive) shares his amusement, but her eyes
dart to the clock.
GUS
(Leaning back, arms
crossed)
So, Chris thinks he can just push
back curfews because he’s “finding
himself”? What if it leads him down
the wrong path?
CAROLYN
(Softly, looking at
the clock)
Finding himself? Or just testing
boundaries? Remember when we were
young? It’s not all rebellion;
sometimes it’s discovery.
GUS
(Sighing,
frustration creeping
in)
Discovery can turn into trouble fast,
Carolyn. It’s that crowd he’s with
that worries me. They’re not innocent
boys playing games.
CAROLYN
(Firmly, meeting his
gaze)
But isn’t that the point? They all
have shadows. It’s not black and
white. There’s potential in those
boys—like Chris. It’s not about blind
faith; it’s about understanding.
GUS
(Raising an eyebrow,
skeptical)
Understanding? Don’t forget to put a
helmet on while you’re at it. You
really think they’re just
misunderstood?
CAROLYN
(Squeezing his hand
gently)
It's not about excusing bad behavior.
It's about remembering they have
struggles too. They deserve a chance
to sort through them without our
judgment sitting on their shoulders.
GUS
(Pausing, finding
his softer side)
I just want him safe, you know. This
world isn’t easy, and the last thing
I want is to lose him to something
reckless.
CAROLYN
(Nodding
empathetically,
leaning closer)
I understand, and I worry too. But
pushing him away by tightening the
leash will only breed resentment. We
need to be there for him, even if
it’s scary.
GUS
(Defeated, but
thoughtful)
I just wish he’d see what’s at stake.
As his parents, we can’t always
shield him from everything.
CAROLYN
(Gently)
No, but we can guide him. Let’s show
him the way without making it feel
like he’s walking through a
minefield. It’s a balance, Gus. A
tightrope.
Suddenly, the door swings open violently, and Chris bursts
in, his breath quick, heart racing.
CHRIS
(Attempting
nonchalance)
Just got back from hanging out with
Fred.
CAROLYN
(Brightening)
You’re back! How was it?
CHRIS
Fine. Just... exploring.
GUS
(Leaning forward)
More like pushing limits. Didn’t
think you’d honor the curfew.
CHRIS
(Defensive)
What’s the problem? You think I need
babysitting?
A moment of silence hangs heavy. Carolyn's brow furrows
while Gus remains steadfast.
CAROLYN
(Calmly)
Your father worries because he cares
about your safety.
CHRIS
(Smirking)
Yeah, sure. Worry is just a fancy
word for control.
GUS
Show some respect, Chris.
CHRIS
(Eyebrows knitting)
Respect? For what? Living under a
roof that feels like prison?
CAROLYN
(Gently)
Christopher! You know it’s not like
that.
The door creaks shut behind him as he hesitates, caught in
frustration—a moment that acknowledges both his rebellion
and his need for connection.
Suddenly, an alarming screech slices through the air,
causing anxiety to erupt.
GUS
What the hell was that?!
CAROLYN
(Growing pale)
Probably just the cats.
GUS
(With authority)
Chris, go check on them!
CHRIS
(Half-sarcastic)
Sure, that sounds like my favorite
activity.
GUS
(Stern)
No back sass. You’re not too old for
a timeout.
CHRIS
(Taunting)
Perfect, I'll just lock myself in my
room.
CAROLYN
Chris!
A flicker of hurt crosses Chris’s face, his eyes softening
as they lock with his mother’s.
GUS
Watch your mouth, young man.
CHRIS

Fine. I’ll check the cats.
Chris rises, the tension between them palpable—a storm of
frustration and underlying concern.
As he heads toward the door, Carolyn watches with worry, her
features blending sorrow with pride, while Gus shakes his
head, anxiety creeping into his heart.
GUS
Something's not right.
As Chris walks out, the door swings shut, leaving Gus and
Carolyn in a heavy silence, contemplating the unrest that
lingers like a shadow, unresolved and haunting.

restless, steps into the backyard of his home. The weight of
being a teenager—balancing friendships and the scars of
bullying—clouds his mind.
He pauses, looking up at the stars, searching for solace
among their vastness.

Suddenly, horror grips him. Lifeless bodies of his pets lay
sprawled across the ground. His breath catches, and despair
washes over him like a crashing wave.

No… Not like this…
Fingers shaking, he kneels beside the lifeless forms, the
sight of scratch marks and blood triggering

purring, and the comfort his cats provided during his
darkest days.
His voice breaks as he whispers.
CHRIS (cont'd)

one of the cats, an overwhelming tide of grief floods his
heart. Hadn't he just promised himself to be braver?

spilling over)
What kind of monster... could do

The weight of isolation crashes down on him, the darkness of
bullying reigniting in his heart.

As he turns, an alien creature descends from the shadows,
the embodiment of every fear he’s ever faced.
CHRIS (cont'd)

No... please! What do you want from
me?
Before he can finish, the alien strikes, its elongated
tongue piercing deeply into Chris’s skull, extinguishing the
flicker of hope in his heart.
Blood spills out, soaking the ground, mingling with his
despair.
In a fleeting moment, Chris’s life flashes before his
eyes—the laughter, the teasing, those precious moments
shared with his beloved pets that now lay cold. They're
reminders of a childhood filled with innocence, crushed
under the weight of loss.
As his world dims, the alien stands still, drooling blood,
drawn to the distant music emanating from Chris's house—a
macabre reminder of life going on without him.

Attention, everyone. I’ve called this
emergency assembly to share some
truly distressing news. One of our
own, Chris Carrington, has tragically
lost his life in Gladesville.
A collective gasp ripples through the crowd. Nadine, leaning
slightly forward in concern, exchanges wide-eyed glances
with Rex. His pallor and the sheen of sweat on his forehead
betray his fear.

emotion)
The circumstances surrounding his
death are still unclear. The police
will be conducting interviews here
today. I urge you to cooperate fully
with them.

feel scared.

But we need to unite as a community.
Chris was part of our family, and he
deserves our strength in this moment.

reaches over to squeeze his shoulder, offering silent
support.

We will get through this together.
Grieve if you need to, but remember,
we’re here for one another. Chris
wouldn’t want us to lose hope.
The bell rings, and a heavy silence hangs in the air,
carrying the weight of grief. The sound of whispering fades,
replaced by students’ hushed exhales as they process the
stunning news.
Several police officers approach the front, and the
students' anxiety escalates.

compassionate)
They will be asking questions about
Chris and the events leading up to
his death. I ask for your full
cooperation during this difficult

lost in thought. Just then, Rex approaches, his expression a
mix of concern and hope.
REX
(Tentatively)
Hey, Nadine. Everything okay? You
seem... distant.

(Inhales deeply)
I saw Fred with another girl last
night at the club.
A heavy silence hangs between them, and Rex swallows hard,
feeling the weight of her disappointment.
REX
(Earnestly)
I’m really sorry, Nadine. You deserve
so much more than that.
NADINE

I really thought he cared... I guess
I was wrong.
Rex steps closer, shifting to a comforting whisper.
REX
(Gentle)
You deserve someone who sees you,
really sees you... not just someone
who’s caught up in their own games.
As Nadine matches his gaze, an unexpected connection
surfaces between them, tinged with shared vulnerability.
NADINE

You’re right. It’s tough to move on,
especially when you hope things will
change.
Overwhelmed, they lean in, hesitating just a moment before
kissing. They both pull away, surprised by the unanticipated
intensity of the moment.
REX

Did we just...?
NADINE

I… I think I do have feelings for
you, Rex. When I'm with you, I
feel... I don’t know, more like
myself.
Rex's bewilderment transforms into a radiant smile, batting
away the darkness of her previous encounter.
REX

Really? I’ve wanted to say the same.
I just didn't know if it was just me.

screen. The chaos of recent events weighs heavily on him;
his shoulders are slightly hunched, and his eyes reveal a
mix of weariness and determination. The door cracks open,
and Officer James steps in, his face a blend of urgency and
excitement.

John?
John glances up, worry lines deepening as a flicker of hope
ignites within him.
JOHN

What’s happened, James?
JAMES

You won't believe this. The DNA from
the skin we found at the nightclub

John straightens, tension easing slightly as he hangs on
James's every word.
JOHN

A match? Who does it belong to?
JAMES
(Cautiously)
Rex Rawson.
John's expression darkens, caught between concern and

Rex? No prior incidents... but still,

Carrington murders. He seemed
innocent, just... a bystander.
John furrows his brows, the internal struggle weighing
heavily on him.

If this is true, we need to bring him

James nods, the unease palpable between them.
JAMES

But what if he’s more involved than
we thought? We have to tread lightly.
JOHN

We will tread lightly. We need to
gain Rex's trust. He could be holding
vital information.
James meets John’s gaze, recognizing the depth of what they
are about to undertake.

Rex shakes his head, trying to clear the images. He glances

I’ve been thinking… my thoughts about
Fred often felt selfish. Like I can’t
escape how he looms over everything.

head, the tension mounting.
NADINE

He’s overwhelming, Rex. His jealousy
can turn toxic.
Rex stops pacing, placing his hands against the wall,
breathing heavily as if trying to physically push away the
weight of Fred’s presence.
REX
(Curious, but
unsteady)
How did you get caught up with him,

I met Fred and Chris after

REX

But why me? Why do they target people
like us?
Nadine shifts closer, her expression a mix of sympathy and

transformation plays in his mind—cracked bones, distorted
images of himself.

Don’t let Fred’s rage define you.
You’re so much more than the
insecurities he projects.

I know it feels impossible, but in

to choose how you respond. You have a
strength that can’t be dismissed.

igniting between them.

magnitude of the situation sets in.
EXT. NADINE'S HOUSE - DAY
As the officers exit, Chief John’s demeanor is grave,
reflecting the weight of his responsibilities.
JOHN
Did you see where they went?
The witness, a middle-aged man, wrings his hands, visibly
shaken.
MAN
Two men took a guy... while another
restrained a girl. They drove off in
a black Corolla '99.
John leans in, compassion mixed with intensity in his voice.
JOHN
(Empathetic)
I need you to focus. Is there
anything else you remember?
MAN
(Desperate)
Yes! The license plate—KILL-750. I...
I can't shake what I saw. It felt
like...
John watches him, recognizing the weight of this man’s fear.
JOHN
(Resolute)
You're doing the right thing. We’ll
catch those bastards. Nadine deserves
justice.
Turning to his team, a storm of frustration brews beneath
John's calm exterior.
JOHN (cont'd)
There's no sign of them inside.
MARK
(Concerned)
How can you be sure of that, Chief?
JOHN
The witness reported a kidnapping
here. This is more than just a fetch
call; it's urgent. We can't afford to
wait.
JAMES
Sounds like they're dangerously close
to getting away.
Determination surges within John as he pinches the bridge of
his nose, recalibrating the weight of the moment.
JOHN
That plate gives us a lead: KILL-750.
It could be the key to finding them.
He gathers his team, locking eyes with each member, as if to
impart his resolve.
JOHN (cont'd)
We report this now. I want to track
that car's recent movements—time is
critical. Nadine's life depends on us
getting this right.
Mark nods, adrenaline spurring him forward, ignited by
memories of his past failures.
MARK
Let’s go. I won’t let this one slip
away.
John reaches for his radio, his fingers trembling, not from
fear but from purpose.
JOHN
Mobilize all units. I want eyes on
that Corolla. We’re getting Nadine
back—no matter what it takes.
As John’s voice crackles through the airwaves, the
atmosphere grows thick with urgency. The stakes are clear:
they’re racing against time to save a life and prevent a
tragedy from deepening.

Shadows of Betrayal
INT. ABANDONED WAREHOUSE - DAY
The abandoned warehouse looms, cloaked in shadows. Dust
dances in the dim light. Nadine stirs, waking in confusion,
memories flooding back: Rex's laughter, shared dreams under
stars, warmth now replaced with dread.
Fred stands before her, an eerie calm masking his agitation,
while Aiden lurks behind, eyes flickering with conflict.
NADINE
(Breath hitching)
Where am I?
Fred steps forward, the hint of vulnerability quickly
obscured by a hardened glare.
FRED
(Low, menacing)
Welcome to your worst nightmare. This
is where choices have...
consequences.
Fear clutches Nadine's heart as silence thickens the air
around them.
NADINE
(Anxiously)
Why am I here?
Fred's expression shifts, revealing his internal war,
jealousy clawing at his insides.
FRED
(Voice tight)
You chose him over me. A choice I
didn’t take lightly.
He turns away, struggling with emotions before forcing
himself to face her again.
FRED (cont'd)
(A whisper)
You were meant to see what I've
always known...
Nadine’s heart sinks under the weight of betrayal, memories
of Rex crashing violently against her current reality.
NADINE
(More desperate)
Where's Rex?
Fred meets Aiden’s concerned glance, his smirk creeping back
with malicious intent.
FRED
(Taunting)
Oh, Rex? He’s... busy, but don’t
worry, he’ll join us soon.
Panic floods Nadine, memories of joy now tainted with dread.
NADINE
(Voice trembling)
What have you done to him?
Fred steps closer, his facade breaking slightly.
FRED
(Softly, haunted)
Nothing... yet. But this is for what
you've made me feel.
Tears brim in Nadine's eyes; he’s an echo of the boy she
once knew.
NADINE
(Voice quaking)
No... not like this...
Suddenly, a sharp pain pierces her abdomen, causing her to
gasp.
NADINE (cont'd)
(Panicking)
What’s happening to me?
Aiden kneels down, lifting her shirt, his eyes widening.
AIDEN
(Shocked)
Fred... look!
Fred's expression drains as he sees undeniable evidence of
Rex's legacy forming within her.
FRED
(Ashamed,
stammering)
It can’t be... Rex's child?
Nadine's world collapses, her heart shattering alongside her
hopes.
NADINE
(Voice breaking)
No... this can’t be happening...
The horror of the child’s dual legacy binds her to Rex even
tighter, tangled in a web of love and despair.

Transformation and Tragedy
INT. ABANDONED WAREHOUSE - NIGHT
The dim light casts eerie shadows as REX awakens, tied to a
chair, confusion etched on his face. JOSH and CONNER loom
nearby, their expressions menacing.
REX
(Confused)
What is this place?
JOSH
(Smirking)
Your nightmare begins now, Rex.
Rex glances around, assessing their surroundings, and his
defiance begins to bubble.
REX
(Defiant)
A warehouse? How original.
JOSH
(Laughs)
It gets better. Trust me.
CONNER
(Sarcastic)
It’s just you and your panic button.
Rex scoffs, holding his ground, but his heartbeat quickens
as memories of past humiliations flash in his mind.
REX
(Unfazed)
You really think this scares me?
Josh lunges forward, throwing a punch.
JOSH
(Fuming)
Let’s see how brave you are!
Rex dodges, his spirit unbroken, fueled by anger at his
tormentors.
REX
(Smirking)
Is that all you've got?
They trade blows, each impact heightening Rex’s resolve.
REX (cont'd)
Just a bunch of fools making noise.
Glimpses of Aiden and past taunts echo in his mind, igniting
Rex’s buried fears.
AIDEN (V.O.)
(Mocking)
Look who it is! The reading loser!
CONNER (V.O.)
(Sneering)
Why so lonely, Rexy?
Anxiety creeps in.
JOSH
(Back to the
present)
Hey! Focus!
REX
(Angry, panting)
I'm not scared!
Suddenly, an intense switch flips in Rex. He channels his
pent-up fury, recalling his yearning for acceptance and the
weight of his past failures.
REX (MONSTER VOICE)
(Enraged)
You want fear? You’ll see it when I’m
angry!
His skin begins to peel, revealing glistening muscles
beneath. Josh and Conner step back, stunned.
JOSH
(Panicked)
What the hell is happening?!
REX (MONSTER VOICE)
(Transforming)
You wanted a show? Get ready for a
real nightmare!
As Rex fully transforms into an alien creature, the fury of
a boy fighting to reclaim his power surges through him, his
past bullying morphing into strength.
JOSH
(Terrified)
We need to get out!
Josh and Conner gasp, unable to comprehend the horror before
them.
Meanwhile, Fred and Aiden stand by the struggling Nadine,
still tied.
CONNER
(Tense)
Guys, there's bad news.
Fred turns to Conner, his curiosity piqued.
FRED
(Surprised)
What is it?
CONNER
(Whispering)
You won't believe who he is.
FRED
(Confused)
What...
Aiden interrupts, drawing the boys' attention back to
Nadine, whose struggles intensify. Her stomach begins to
swell alarmingly.
AIDEN
(Alarmed)
Looks like she's going to burst.
Nadine screams, her body wracked with pain.
Meanwhile, the boys watch Rex transform.
AIDEN (cont'd)
(Astounded)
What the hell is that thing?
JOSH
(Stunned)
Fred, that's Rex!
FRED
(Determined)
Whatever he is, it’s something I want
dead.
Fred brandishes his pistol, the other boys rush to arm
themselves.
FRED (cont'd)
(Defiant)
Hey, Rex! You choose your monster
side when it comes to protecting her?
Are you just gonna kill us all or
save the woman of your dreams!?
The alien roars, a cacophony of rage and desperation.
FRED (cont'd)
(Angry)
You want her? She's all yours!
The alien roars again and begins to charge towards the
group. Fred reacts by firing at the creature, and the boys
follow suit with their weapons.
CONNER
(Furious)
Let's beat the shit out of him!
AIDEN
(Emotional)
For Craig.
JOSH
(Remorseful)
For Jake.
The boys attack the alien as it falls to the ground.
Meanwhile, Nadine's struggles subside as she begins to give
birth to Rex's baby. Her stomach stops swelling, and an
alien baby, cocooned, emerges from her womb and falls to the
floor. After the boys have beaten the alien to what they
believe is its death, they step back and Fred approaches the
fallen creature.
FRED
(Remorseful)
And this is for Chris.
Fred shoots the alien dead. Aiden watches in horror as the
alien baby wriggles within its cocoon.
AIDEN
(Alarmed)
Fred?
Fred turns and notices the alien baby, his expression
turning grim.
FRED
(Confused)
What the fuck is that?
JOSH
(Surprised)
Rex's baby.
CONNER
(Curious)
Looks like it's moving.
Fred aims his gun at the baby, ready to pull the trigger.
FRED
(Determined)
Not for long.
Just as Fred is about to shoot, the alien suddenly heals and
stands back up. Conner turns and sees the alien on its feet
again.
CONNER
(Surprised)
What the...
The alien extends its arm, shooting a tongue-like projectile
from its eye towards Conner. The camera cuts away as
Conner's horrified expression sputters to disbelief. The
other boys, Josh and Aiden, turn to face the now fully-
recovered alien.
AIDEN
(Astounded)
No fucking way!
The alien swings its hand, grabbing Aiden's crowbar. The
camera pans away from Josh and Aiden as their expressions
register fear and terror.
Gurgling, the sound of struggle is heard off-screen as the
boys fight against the alien. The camera cuts back to the
aftermath, showing blood on the ground, and the boys lying
lifeless. The horror of their fate is left to the
imagination of the audience, as the implication of their
deaths hangs heavily in the air.
The alien now turns its attention to Fred, who brings out
his gun and fires at the creature. The alien retaliates by
punching Fred in the stomach and bursting out of his back.
The alien lifts Fred's lifeless body, gazes into his eyes,
and roars triumphantly.
The alien decapitates Fred by biting his head off and blood
gushing out, the alien drops his decapitated body and looks
down at the remaining group. Nadine, now alone and
terrified, meets the alien's gaze as it looms over her.
NADINE
(Desperate)
Rex, I know you're in there, you
gotta stop and start thinking of a
good thought, don't let the bad get
the best of you.
The alien hisses in response.
NADINE (cont'd)
(Persistent)
You have to control yourself.
The alien seems to recall the lessons Nadine had taught Rex.
The alien gently wipes the cold sweat from Nadine's forehead
and reacts to a crying sound nearby. The alien turns and
finds the alien baby barely moving near Nadine. The alien
kneels down on its four limbs and approaches the baby.
Nadine watches as the alien gets close to its offspring.
NADINE (cont'd)
(Supportive)
It's yours, Rex. It is yours.
Nadine feels a sense of relief. The baby gazes up at the
alien, and the alien growls and hisses its tongue towards
the baby.
The baby hisses back, crawling towards the alien, and they
make contact. Suddenly, three police officers burst in, guns
drawn, and they find the restrained Nadine and the alien
alongside its baby.
MARK
(Commands)
Stop, police!
The alien and its baby react to the sudden entrance of three
police officers into the warehouse through the door.
Frantic, the alien and the baby scatter in an attempt to
find a hiding spot, but one of the officers fires a shot at
the alien. The police officers carefully move deeper into
the warehouse, eventually reaching Nadine and freeing her
from her restraints.
JAMES
(Calmly)
It's okay, you're safe now.
NADINE
(Hurriedly)
You don't understand, he's the one.
Nadine looks up at the officers, a sense of urgency in her
voice.
ALEX
(Confused)
What do you mean?
NADINE
(Distressed)
Rex is the monster.
MARK
(Determined)
What does that mean?
JAMES
(Realizing)
She's saying that Rex is the creature
we're after.
ALEX
(Urging)
Let's secure the area and get out of
here quickly.
After releasing Nadine and ensuring her safety, the officers
escort her out of the warehouse, with Mark keeping watch.
JAMES
(Reassuring)
You'll be alright.
ALEX
(Comforting)
You're safe now, sweetheart.
Mark, still on alert with his gun raised, notices the alien
baby crawling nearby.
MARK
(Alarmed)
Movement!
He takes aim and fires at the rapidly moving baby. The alien
infant is hit by several bullets and collapses, lifeless.
The officers swiftly exit the warehouse, closing and locking
the door behind them.
Meanwhile, the alien descends from the ceiling and discovers
its dead offspring. With a mixture of grief and rage, the
creature roars, sensing the imminent threat of more trouble
with the distant sound of approaching sirens. It gazes
upwards, focusing on the lights above, and uses its tail to
smash most of the lights with the sharp spike on its tip.

Outside the warehouse, police cars surround the area,
officers on high alert. John approaches them, eyes scanning
the perimeter.
JOHN

Is it still inside?
MARK
(Confirming, tension
in his voice)
Yes, it is. We heard the gunfire
before.
JOHN
(Surprised)
Explains the gunfire. What did we get
into here?
MARK
(Grimly)
There were two of them.
John's brows knit together, processing the implication.
JOHN
(Puzzled)
Two? How is that even possible?
Mark runs a hand through his hair, frustration evident in
his eyes.
MARK
(Nervous)
I don’t know. Just feels like a bad
horror movie playing out right in
front of us—this isn’t fiction.
JOHN
(Determined)
Get Nadine to safety first. I need
two officers guarding the perimeter.
No mistakes this time; we can’t
afford them.
JAMES
(Nodding, trying to
be reassuring)
Got it, Chief. We won’t let anything
slip through, not after last time.
TACTICAL OFFICER #1 (MARCUS)
(Anxious, scanning
the shadows)
I’ve got a bad feeling about this. It
feels… endless in there.
TACTICAL OFFICER #2 (DAN)
(Stammering
slightly)
Endless indeed. I didn’t sign up for
a spooky movie night. We’re just
sitting ducks right now!
As tension mounts, the chief approaches John, authority
radiating.
CHIEF
(Inquisitive)
Are you in charge here?
JOHN
(Confident, but
weary)
Yes, we have an unidentified monster
inside. It’s more than just a
creature; it’s a threat that could
tear us apart if we aren’t careful.
The chief studies John's demeanor, skepticism coloring his
expression.
CHIEF
(Skeptical)
Are you certain it’s in there? You
know how quickly things can escalate.
JOHN
(Resolute, thinking
of the lives at
stake)
I believe so. We’ve contained the
area... but I need you to trust me on
this. We have to act quickly.
Nadine steps forward, urgency ringing in her voice.
NADINE
(Defiant)
You won’t capture it.
John looks surprised, concern growing.
JOHN
(Confused)
What do you mean? We have protocols
for this.
Nadine locks eyes with him, trembling but fierce.
NADINE
(With conviction)
I saw it. Your officer killed its
baby when I was escorted out. That
sort of trauma is unpredictable!
Realization hits John hard, anger starting to bubble. He has
always been a protector, and the thought of collateral
damage stings.
JOHN
(Fuming)
That explains the gunfire… We need to
adjust our approach!
NADINE
(Shaken)
It's not just angry. It's driven to
desperation, and is now more
dangerous than you realize.
The chief looks at John, who is visibly grappling with the
new information.
CHIEF
(Determined,
recalibrating the
plan)
We'll enter when ready, but I need
you to keep everything under control,
John.
John nods, tension radiating as he takes a moment to glance
at Nadine, who stands resolute. He knows this mission isn't
just a job for her; it’s personal. He whispers to himself,
determined to ensure that neither she nor anyone else loses
any more.

focus in his eyes. JUSTICE MAX HARVEY (65, sagacious and
stern) watches closely from the bench.
HAROLD

Miss Napier, your abduction by Fred
Ferguson changed everything. What

Fred was my ex. Jealousy consumed
him—there was never a good reason.

swirling.
HAROLD

What crossed the line into his
violent actions?

Was there torment in that warehouse?

They ridiculed Rex for his past,
mocked him as if his pain was a joke!
It shattered me to witness his
anguish.

You’re saying Rex bore part of that
destruction? Did he confess?

He loved fiercely but also hurt
deeply.

Was this battle why he changed? Did
he lose himself?

lectern, his gaze steady.

We gather to remember Rex—a light in
our lives, whose courage inspired us
all.

Rest in peace, dear Rex.

intertwined for support.

Rex’s love was unconditional. He
reminded us that even in struggle,
there is kindness. Rest well, my son.

Ronald. Nadine, flanked by her guardians, steps forward, her
voice trembling.

Rex was a shining light in a world of
doubt. His unwavering support
brightened my darkest days. Farewell,
my friend. You will be missed.

casket.

into our lives and honor his spirit
with love and compassion.
