FADE IN: EXT. PARK - NIGHT PULL BACK from a huge full moon to REVEAL the park. It's late and the park is empty. We move through the trees and bushes and find -- A CAR Parked in an enclosed clearing of grass. Tress and bushes surround the clearing. From inside the car we hear VOICES. ALEX (O.S.) I can't believe this is how I'm spending Friday night. CUT TO: INT. THE CAR - CONTINUOUS Sitting in the car are ALEX, seventeen, tall, shaggy black hair, and good looking in a cheeky way. Sitting with him in the back is ASH, seventeen, shaved head covered by a beanie hat, and quite muscular. In the front of the car is MIKE, sixteen, thin, long blonde hair, and SIMON, seventeen, dark brown hair and a little on the tubby side. Sitting on the dashboard are two eight packs of beer. Four of the cans are gone. MIKE Oh come on Alex. What are you afraid of? Who do you thinks going to bother us? Ash turns from the front seat and looks back at Alex. ASH Mike's right. At this time of night. We own this place. The park, heck the whole damn city if we wanted. SIMON Alex know this. He's just a little upset because he had a big ol' fight with Sarah. Isn't that right? Alex looks out the window of the car, looking a little hurt, and angry. ALEX It's not funny guys. Things feel really bad at the moment, and not just with Sarah. I've been pissing everyone off, even my mom and dad. Ash tosses Alex another beer and smiles. ASH Lighten up. You've got no reason to be this down. Like we said, tonight we own this city. We have nothing to-- Ash looks up and out of the front windshield at something we don't see. All of the colour drains from his face. ASH --fear. ASH'S POV -- Standing around the front of the car are DANIEL, BO, and LEON. They are all dressed in Gothic attire and look very suspicious. ALEX (to Ash) Hey you okay? Alex follows Ash's gaze, as do the two in the front. SMASH! Bo drives his fist through the windshield, grabbing Mike and dragging him, SCREAMING out of the car. ASH No! Mike! CUT TO: EXT. PARK - CONTINUOUS Bo drags Mike out of the car and onto the grass. Alex, Ash, and Simon get out of the car in a panic. ALEX Hey! Get the hell off him. Bo grabs Mike and lifts him off the ground. BO (to Mike) Look at that boy. Your friends look real worried about you. Mike tries to pull himself away from Bo, but his grip is too tight. BO (to Mike) And you know what? They should be. And on the last word he brings his face right up to Mike and it changes, right before our very eyes into a nasty looking vampire, sloped brow, yellow eyes and fangs. SIMON Oh shit! What the fuck is that?! Bo sinks his teeth into Mike's neck. Daniel and Leon step forward as Bo drinks the blood from Mike's body, their faces have also changed. Alex, Ash, and Simon all make a run for it, all of them running off in different directions. Leon is about to take chase in the same direction Alex headed off but Daniel stops him. DANIEL No. That ones mine. Leon nods. CUT TO: EXT. ANOTHER PART OF THE PARK - MOMENTS LATER Alex comes running out of the bushes, he trips, but doesn't fall and continues running. We hear SCREAMS from Ash, and Simon in the distance, and then nothing. Alex stops and turns, looking back in the direction of the screams. ALEX No. He turns back in the direction his was running and stares, despair creeping onto his face. Daniel stands not two feet in front of him, grinning. DANIEL Thought you could get away, didn't you? ALEX (scared) W-What did you do to my friends? DANIEL Me? Nothing. But those other guys. They're probably killing them as we speak. ALEX What the hell are you? DANIEL Don't worry. You'll find out soon enough. He bares his fangs, grabs Alex and buries them into his neck. BLACK OUT: INT. ALEX'S HOUSE - DREAM/FLASHBACK - NIGHT Alex is in mid conversation/fight with is parents JOSH, and JUDY. Standing watching the row is Alex's eight year old sister KATIE, she holds onto a cuddly teddy bear. ALEX Please! Just one more chance! JOSH Sorry son. We have to put our foot down on this. Your grades are terrible, do you even turn up at college?, And I won't even get started on your attitude problems! JUDY Alex, your Father and I just want what's best for you, but these mood swings your having. You're not taking drugs are you? ALEX (shouting) No! What do you think I am, Stupid? Katie hugs the bear tighter as the fight gets louder and louder. ALEX And I don't have an attitude problem, I just get down once in a while! So cut me a break. All I want to do is go to one fucking party! Katie looks shocked at what Alex has just said. JOSH (angry) Alex Ramos! How dare you use language like that in front of your Mother and Sister! You're going nowhere tonight, or this week. Now get to your room! Alex grabs his coat from the chair. ALEX Stick it! I'm gone. Alex begins to walk away but Katie gets in his way. KATIE Alex. Please don't go. ALEX Not now Katie. Dad can't treat me like a prisoner. I've got to get out. I'll see you later. Alex pushes past her, and out of the door. CUT TO: INT. CHURCH - DAY The church is old, and abandoned. The windows are boarded up, not allowing any light inside. The ground floor of the church has been cleared, all of the pews are stacked against the walls. Lying on the ground in the center of the church is Alex, unconscious. Scattered around him are a flock of DEAD pigeons, each one in a pool of it's own blood. Alex beings to come too. ALEX -- later. Uh, what's going on? I feel so weird. He pulls himself up onto his feet, swaying slightly. He looks about his surroundings, taking them in. ALEX Where am I? He looks down at the dead birds. ALEX This has to be some kind of dream. DANIEL (O.S.) No dream Alex. This is quite real. Alex looks about, scanning the area for the source of the voice. ALEX Who are you? From one of the darkened corners of the church, Daniel steps out of the shadows. He lights a candle and moves toward Alex. Alex stares back and Daniel in horror. ALEX You! You killed my friends. Alex backs away, moving deeper into the church. Daniel follows. DANIEL You still have no idea who I am. Do you? Alex continues backing away. DANIEL After what we done I'm surprised you've forgot. ALEX I don't know what your going on about. And I'm not going to let you kill me too! Alex runs up the stairs to the second level of the church. The second level is one huge balcony that looks down on the ground level of the church. DANIEL You still don't understand. You cannot be killed since you no longer really live! Alex stops. ALEX What? DANIEL You do "live". But not in the normal way. You are now and forever will be a vampire. Alex bursts into nervous laughter. ALEX A vampire. There is no way that I'm a -- Alex's face suddenly changes, morphing into the vampire visage. ALEX -- vampire. Alex touches his face feeling it, the bumpy brow, his sharp pointy teeth. ALEX I can't be. No! No! Alex starts moving backward, distraught. He turns and runs toward the edge of the balcony. ALEX I won't believe any of this! I'm not a vampire! Alex leaps off the balcony, dropping twenty foot down onto the ground floor. He lands unharmed, and heads off towards the front doors of the church. ALEX I'm going outside, where the sane people are! Daniel drops down from the balcony, also landing unharmed. DANIEL No! Don't go out there. You can't survive! Alex reaches the doors and starts to pull them open. ALEX Leave me alone! He pulls them open and in pours the sunlight. Alex staggers back in pain, SCREAMING. He begins to smoulder and smoke, but continues trying to leave the church. He eventually falls back, into the church. ALEX Help me! Make it stop! Make it stop. The doors slam shut, and Daniel moves over to Alex, who is barely conscious. DANIEL You have to accept what you are. This is your new life. Rest. It will be night soon. CUT TO: EXT. CITY - DAY/NIGHT We see the skyline of the city as the sun sets, day turning into night. CUT TO: INT. CHURCH - NIGHT We join Daniel and Alex, who seems to have calmed down a little, in mid conversation. Alex is sitting, his head in his hands, on one of the steps leading up to the altar. Daniel stands in front of him talking. DANIEL You really can remember. Can you? Alex looks up at Daniel a unknowing look on his face. DANIEL We were friends. A long time ago. A beat. DANIEL Until that day in the field. Realization crosses Alex's face. CUT TO: EXT. FIELD - FLASHBACK - DAY We are moving through tall, dry grass. We come to a clearing where two eight year old girls play. There is a picnic set up in the middle of the clearing surrounded by dolls, and a tea set. The girls drink the pretend tea and giggle. GIRL#1 More tea Jennifer? GIRL#2 Yes please. Girl 1 pour the "tea" into a cup. Watching the girls, hidden by the long grass is ten year old Alex and Daniel. ALEX Go on. He hands him a book of matches and a firework. DANIEL I don't want to. Come on Alex lets just play something else. ALEX Go on think of how funny it'll be. DANIEL Please Alex. I don't want to do it. ALEX If you don't do it I'll tell the guys at school that you chickened out. Daniel looks down at the firework and then back up at the girls, who are still playing. THE GIRLS Get up from their picnic and begin playing with their dolls. Suddenly the firework drops from the sky and lands in the middle of the picnic. The girls stop and look at the firework, on the side of the firework it reads: "HIGH EXPLOSIVE" this isn't a firework at all. The fuse is lit. ALEX AND DANIEL Watch as the girls run from the firework. BOOM!!! The firework explodes taking out the whole area, including the girls. Alex and Daniel are knocked off their feet by the blast. Alex quickly gets to his feet, trying to shake the ringing from his ears. ALEX Daniel come on! Come on! We've got to go! Daniel doesn't move. GIRL#1'S MOM Jennifer! Honey are you okay? The Girl's Mom SCREAMS! Alex turns and makes a run for it. Leaving Daniel. CUT TO: INT. CHURCH - CONTINUOUS ALEX Daniel. Oh god. I remember. But I thought you were in a detention center. DANIEL I was released a six months ago. But when I came out I was changed. I met people inside who taught me things I never knew existed in this world. ALEX Vampires. DANIEL Vampires. But they aren't the only things that exist. There is a whole other world out there that nobody know about. ALEX So what? You thought you'd do this to me? Make me a vampire. DANIEL I've been watching you for months now. I was going to kill you and leave you for dead but when I saw how miserable your life was I though this was the perfect punishment for you, for letting me rot for all those years. Now you have to rot. (beat) Forever. ALEX I never meant for you to take the blame. I was going to come forward but they had already convicted you. I was scared. DANIEL You were scared? When your labelled a child killer it's not a barrel of laughs you know. There's one thing I always wanted to know. Did you know that it wasn't a firework? ALEX No. Not at all. I'm sorry for what happened. But turning me into a vampire? I'd have rather you killed me! I'll die before I kill and drink blood. DANIEL You've already drunk blood. In the time that you were changing I fed you my blood, and the blood of pigeons. (beat) We need blood. Alex climbs to his feet, shaking his head in disbelief. ALEX I'd rather face sunlight than drink blood. DANIEL You have no choice. ALEX I'll always have a choice. Alex heads towards the entrance to the church. As he passes Daniel he tries to stop him. ALEX Leave me alone! You had no right! Alex explodes, smashing Daniel in the face with his fist. Daniel seems un-phased by the blow, and turns back to face Alex, he has a tiny cut on his lip, which heals right before our eyes. DANIEL You only get to do that once, you got that? But Alex is gone, out of the front doors and off into the night. CUT TO: EXT. STREET - NIGHT Is deserted. Alex comes running down the street and comes to a stop outside of a shop. He stops as if to catch his breath but realizes he doesn't need too. ALEX I've been running for hours, and I'm not even tired. Weird. He is about to head off again but something catches his attention in the shop window. He stares into the shop window, a little shocked and confused. THE WINDOW Alex stares at his fading reflection in the window. He steps back, away from the window with a dazed look on his face. ALEX It's true. I'm a vampire. Alex looks down at the ground. Wrapped around his foot is the front of a newspaper. Alex reaches down and picks it up. On the front of the page is Alex's picture, the headline reads: "Boy missing for one month". ALEX A month! Mom and Dad must be going mental. Oh no, Katie. Alex drops the paper and runs off. CUT TO: EXT. ALEX'S HOUSE - KATIE'S ROOM - NIGHT Katie is fast asleep in her bed, cuddling her teddy bear tight. Her bed is covered with other stuffed animals and toys. On the bedside table is a picture of her and Alex. Alex is cuddling her and she is smiling. We watch her sleep for a moment and then move across the room to the window, where Alex stands, watching. ALEX Katie. I-- Alex doubles over in pain. CUT TO: EXT. ALEX'S HOUSE - KATIE'S WINDOW - CONTINUOUS Alex is kneeled over, holding his stomach, on top of the garage by Katie's window. We can't see his face, but we can hear his MOANS, and GROANS of pain. ALEX It hurts. As he lifts his head up we now see that he is wearing his vampire face. Drool drips down from his gleaming white, fangs. ALEX Must feed! Alex straightens up and looks back into the window, he begins BREATHING HEAVY. Trying to fight off the urge to feed. ALEX The girl. Alex steps back. ALEX No. Not her! Got to get away from her. Alex turns and jumps off the roof. CUT TO: INT. ALEX'S HOUSE - KATIE'S ROOM - CONTINUOUS There is a CRASH from outside. Katie stirs and looks towards the window, and the sound of the noise. KATIE Alex? CUT TO: EXT. ALLEY - MOMENTS LATER Alex comes crashing into the alley, knocking over trash cans. He supports himself against the alley wall. He ROARS in pain. CLOSE ON ALEX'S FACE His face is more animal/monster, than human now. He ROARS again and falls to the ground. ALEX (in pain) Feed! Blood! BO (O.S.) What do we have here? Alex looks up. Standing above him is Leon, and Bo. LEON Didn't we kill your friends? Leon and Bo laugh. Bo kicks Alex. BO So Daniel changed you huh? Wondered where he'd been. Always knew it was a mistake turning him. LEON When we're finished with you boy. We'll take care of him. WHAP! A shard of wood BURSTS through Leon's chest. He gasps and turns to ash revealing Daniel standing holding the shard of wood. DANIEL Is that right? Bo GROWLS and VAMPS OUT. BO You fucking traitor. Bo attacks driving Daniel back to the closed off end of the alley. Daniel parries a couple of Bo's blows but he is stronger and faster. Bo grabs Daniel by the throat and tosses him into the opposite wall, shattering the wall. Brick and rubble fall to the ground, along with Daniel's body. BO I knew it was a mistake changing you. I should have feed off you with the rest of your family. Bo reaches down and picks up the shard of wood off the ground. BO It's funny what a small piece of wood can do. He raises the shard. Alex grabs Bo's legs knocking him off balance. Bo falls back onto a pile of broken crates. BO No. Bo looks down at his chest. Sticking out of his chest is a piece of the broken crate. He disintegrates into Ash. Daniel, a little dazed gets to his feet. He brushed the rubble, and dust off himself. He looks down at Alex who is nearly out cold. DANIEL You need to feed Alex or you will die. Alex opens his eyes. ALEX (groggy) Then I'll die. I don't want to live like this. Daniel moves to Alex, and crouches down beside him. DANIEL You don't understand. A RAT Scurries past Alex. Daniel picks up the rat. DANIEL You have been given a great chance. A chance to live forever and all you have to do-- ALEX Is kill. I can't do that. DANIEL People kill every day. What's one human life to them, a couple of days in the news and then nothing. Written off as a missing person. Just like you. Alex GROANS, as the hunger gets stronger. Daniel offers him the rat. Alex looks at it, not knowing whether to take it or not and then does, biting into it. We can hear SLURPS as Alex feeds off the rat. DANIEL You can't live off rats, and pigeons. Eventually the blood lust will take over and next time you won't be able to stop yourself. Daniel help Alex get to his feet and they head out of the alley. CUT TO: EXT. STREET - CONTINUOUS They continue down the street. DANIEL Anyway. That rat should have given you enough energy for a little while. What do you say we hit a club? ALEX A club? DANIEL Yeah. Come on Alex, don't you listen to anything I say? There's a whole other world out there. It's not just all about killing, some of us are actually pretty normal people who enjoy doing normal things. Alex shoots Daniel an uneasy smile "normal". ALEX So where's this club then? Daniel smiles and puts his arm around Alex. DANIEL Now that's more like it! Alex suddenly stops, his gaze fixed. DANIEL What's wrong? Daniel looks into the coffee shop. ALEX'S P.O.V. -- The small coffee is shop is packed full of customers. We follow a pretty waitress as she saunters from a table to table, taking people's drinks orders. BACK TO SCENE ALEX Continues watching the waitress. DANIEL Come on buddy! We've got to get going before all the good girls are taken. Then Daniel realizes who Alex is looking at. DANIEL Oh. So you've already got your eye on someone? We're talking about the waitress, right. Damn she's a little hottie! Alex snaps out of his stare and laughs slightly. ALEX Down boy. That's Sarah. She's a (beat) Friend. DANIEL Oh, you mean girlfriend? ALEX (sad) A long time ago maybe. But things change, people change, and I mean literally. Alex takes one last look and walks away. ALEX Come on. Daniel follows. They both cross the street and head down another darkened alley. As the walk through the alley we hear someone COUGH, and then the sound of "WATER RUNNING". A short baud guy is in the middle of taking a piss. He turns and sees Daniel and Alex. GUY What the hell are you two doing? Piss off! Can't you see I'm trying to have a god damn piss? Alex and Daniel ignore the guy and continue walking. GUY Fucking faggots. Daniel stops, a LOW GROWL building in his chest. When he turns to face the guy, his face is in VAMP MODE. In a flash he grabs the guy by his throat and has him pinned up against the wall. DANIEL (angry) What did you say? GUY (panicking) Nothing! Nothing! Alex grabs Daniel's arm and tries to calm him down. ALEX Whoa! What are you doing? Let the guy down! DANIEL Are you fucking serious? This guy deserves to die! Daniel tosses the guy across the alley into the opposite wall. The guy falls to the ground, sobbing. DANIEL Get up you piece of shit. Daniel grabs him by throat and tosses him to Alex. DANIEL Feed! Alex looks down at the guy's neck, and then back at Daniel. ALEX No. He releases the guy, who runs off out of the alley. DANIEL What the fuck was that about? ALEX I told you. I'm not going to kill anyone. No matter who they are. I'm not a killer, like you. Alex turns and starts off down the alley. DANIEL You can't walk away from me! I made you! I should have killed you for what you did to me! Even when I decided to make you suffer forever I took pity on you and took you in. Taught you about us and our ways. (beat) You will feed or you and everyone around you will die! I'll make sure of that! As he shouts at Alex, we see that he is more upset than angry. Alex keeps on walking and leaves the alley. Daniel grabs a trash can and with all his strength launches it into the wall of the alley. DANIEL Fuck! CUT TO: EXT. COFFEE SHOP - NIGHT Sarah and two other workers talk as they cross the car park after work. SARAH No guys. I'm fine I'm not in the mood for a drink tonight. WORKER#1 Come on Sarah, please. SARAH Sorry. The group splits, the other workers leaving Sarah to walk across to her car several yards away alone. She feels like someone's watching. She stops, and scans the car park for someone. SARAH Hello? No answer. She reaches into her bag and searches for her keys as she picks up pace to her car. She looks around again. No one. She pulls out her keys and puts it in the lock, then hears someone LAUGHING. SARAH Come on guy's, this isn't funny. Another SOUND. Closer. She fumbles with her keys and they fall to the ground. She bends over to pick them up but kicks them by mistake under the car. SARAH Shit. Sarah, really scared now, crouches to try and retrieve her keys. But as she looks beneath the car, she sees -- FEET, two, standing right on the other side of the car. Sarah freaks, leaves her keys and takes off running, away from the car, and back toward the coffee shop. She turns and looks behind her. No one. She turns round and bumps into someone. It's Daniel in complete vampire face. He GROWLS and we -- FLASH CUT TO: EXT. CHURCH - NIGHT A crowd of people surround the front of the church. The blue lights from the police cars, and ambulance light up the front of the church. Alex comes out of a near by alley and sees the scene. He is about to turn and walk in the other direction when he sniffs the air. ALEX Blood? He pushes his way through the crowd, to the front. He stops, a wave of horror flooding his face. SARAH'S BODY Lying on the steps of the church. Her head is twisted at a unnatural angle and her vacant eyes stare up towards the sky. There is blood everywhere! Uniformed officers and forensics work on the scene collecting evidence. Alex tries to catch his breath. He hangs his head, about to vomit. He looks back up at the body, at the blood. ALEX (angry) Sarah. A tear rolls down his cheek. He goes to walk away, which is when he notices -- Daniel standing in the crowd opposite, grinning. In his hand is Katie's teddy bear. He turns and runs off. Alex pushes his way out of the crowd and sprints off at an inhuman speed after Daniel. CUT TO: EXT. STREET BY THE PARK - CONTINUOUS Daniel comes running by at a remarkable speed. He reaches the gates of the park and leaps up into the air, at least twelve feet, over the fence and lands safe on the other side. He turns and sees Alex running toward the fence. He smiles and heads off deeper into the park. CUT TO: EXT. PARK - NIGHT Daniel comes running through the bushes into a clearing. Tied to a tree is Katie, who is scared and has been crying. DANIEL Don't worry girl. It'll soon be over. Daniel drops the teddy and watches the bushes, waiting, ready for trouble. Alex bursts out of the bushes in vamp mode. He sees Katie. ALEX Let her go Daniel! Daniel laughs. DANIEL Was that a threat? From you? ALEX It was more than just a threat! Daniel PLOWS into Alex. Alex slams into a tree, hard. Daniel swings at him but Alex ducks out of the way, grabbing him from behind and pushing him up against the tree. Daniel kicks back, against the tree sending Alex tumbling to the ground. Daniel lunges at him, Alex grabs a nearby glass bottle and smashes it hard across his face. Daniel stops his attack, ROARING as blood pours from his face. Alex scrambles to his feet. ALEX Just let her go. This is between you and me. DANIEL Let her go! Are you mad? Your going to watch as I feed off her. Drain every last drop of blood from her, tiny, feeble body. Daniel lunges at Alex. The two vampires grapple. Clawing, leaping, punching, kicking, moves beyond human capacity. Alex swings Daniel hard into a park bench. It shatters sending wood scattering across the ground. Daniel is back up on his feet. DANIEL (furious) I don't get it! I forgave you! He punches Alex in the face, hard. DANIEL You were spared from death! WHAM! Again. DANIEL You had a chance to live forever! BAM! Again. DANIEL All you had to do was feed once in a while. Kill one human! SMASH! Again. Alex falls to his knees. His face a total bloody mess. Daniel grabs him by his hair, and pulls his head up to his. DANIEL (pointing at Katie) I've decided. I'm not going to kill her. I'm going to turn her! Like I did you. But she will feed, and be mine! Alex eyes narrow, pure rage building up inside of him. ALEX You'll never lay a god damn finger on my little sister. Alex grabs Daniel's wrist, crushing it hard. Daniel winces in pain and releases Alex from his grip. They both face off. Silence as they stare at each other. Alex glances down. By his feet is a piece of broken wood. Daniel charges, ROARING. Alex braces himself. He reaches down and grabs the piece of wood brining it up just in time to SLAM it into Daniel's chest and into his heart. Daniel stumbles back, looking down at the piece of wood sticking out of his chest. He has a shocked and dumbfound look on his face. DANIEL (a whisper) H-h-how could you? I made y- He is cut off as his body turns to ash. Alex collapses against a tree in his face changing back to normal. Katie stares at Alex, stunned stupid. Alex gets to his feet and moves over to Katie. He unties her and they just stare at each other, silently connecting. He picks up the cuddly teddy and hands it to her. There is a RUSTLE in the bushes and two POLICE OFFICERS burst out into the clearing, guns drawn. Katie stands by the tree. Alone. Holding onto her teddy. CUT TO: INT. ALEX'S HOUSE - LIVING ROOM - NIGHT CLOSE ON THE TV It's the news. There is a pretty blonde NEWS REPORTER on screen: NEWS REPORTER Eight year old Katie Ramos has safely been returned to her home after last night's attempted kidnapping. Katie was found in Newbury Park late last night by police officers, there are no suspects as yet. In other news-- The screen goes BLACK as we PULL BACK and see Josh getting up from the couch. He tosses the remote down onto the chair. Katie sits by the window, looking out into the night. Judy enters the room. JUDY Josh, Katie. Dinner's ready. JOSH Okay, Hon. (beat) Our little Katie is all over the local news. (beat) Nothing about Alex though. Judy's begins to well up and Josh embraces her. JUDY God I miss him so much Josh. I pray that he's okay. JOSH Me too honey. Me too. The stop hugging and Judy wipes away a tear and turns her attention to Katie. JUDY Katie, honey? Katie is waving to someone outside. JUDY Who are you waving to? KATIE Alex. JUDY That's sweet dear. And we all hope he's out there. Katie continues staring out into the night. KATIE (a whisper) He is. I know it. CUT TO: EXT. ALEX'S HOUSE - CONTINUOUS Katie waves one last time and turns to leave. We PULL BACK, revealing we were looking in the window. It's raining. There is a RUMBLE OF THUNDER and then a FLASH of lightning, which lights up the night. We continue MOVING BACK until we stop at a tree where a shadowy figure stands watch. Alex. He waits, still and silent as his little sister exits the living room with her parents, his parents. ALEX (V.O.) I know I can never go back. Never be part of their lives ever again. There is this whole world out there. A world of darkness and evil. A world they never need to know about, and I swear I'll protect them from it. No matter what! He turns, grim and steps off the tree branch, dropping down onto the street, into darkness. FADE TO BLACK. THE END
