Why are you doing this?

CONNOR
Because I know what its like to be misunderstood

IVY
Misunderstood is what they call someone who spent fifty years cursing people into loving her to death?

Jones attempts to wrap his jacket around Faith, she wonders away

FAITH
I said Im cool okay, lets just chill

JONES
Thats what I was trying to stop the chill
(pause)
Looks like Im gonna get it whatever the weather

FAITH
What does that mean?

JONES

INT FOREST BY THE LAKE NIGHT

A young woman is walking her dog as the night lights flicker on, She looks around in discomfort.

EMMA
Come on Bonnie!

She waits patiently for her dog to return from the bushes.

EMMA
Here Bonnie, Bonnie

Emma scuffs her feet along the ground to lure Bonnie out, but theres no reaction until she hears him yelping.

EMMA
Bonnie?

Emma steps into the pushes slowly, calling out for Bonnie by shaking her lead against her leg.

EMMA
Bonnie?

She pauses after hearing rustling in the nearby bush before a light whistling begins, eventually becoming an ear-shattering howl.

Emma begins to run back to the path in panic, but she strips to the floor. Looking down to her feet she sees Bonnie. Dead.

Emma screams and tries to stand as the howling get louder and louder. From the far end of the forest a light appears, a light that looks as though it belongs to a car

EMMA
Help me!!!

The light gets closer as does the howling. Emmas eyes go wide as it finally reaches her she screams and we hear a tearing sound as we

FADE TO WHITE.

INT GSPOT NIGHT

Music by Madonna, is pumping hard from the stereo as Andrew and Thalia sit sipping cocktails. Jones is holding a beer and Ryan is sat in the very far corner with Connor talking so privately that theyve had the area sealed off as VIP

JONES
She always let loose like that?

All three look at Dawn going at it Him style while dancing back to back with Faith

THALIA
Dawn?

JONES
Yeah

THALIA
No. Faiths clearly taming it down for you though

JONES
I know, its like she forgot Ive see her every move since she got back to Boston

RYAN

CONNOR

RYAN
Why are you helping her?

CONNOR

(pause)
Its kind of like that

RYAN
Im trying to understand Connor but I cant
(off of Connors let down look)
But Ill take your word for it. Where is she?

CONNOR
She said shes down at the old bridge by the falls had something to take care of

RYAN

CUT TO.

EXT THE FALLS/RIVER/FOREST/BRIDGE NIGHT

Ivy is stood alone on the bridge looking guilt ridden as Blood stains her hands completely.

She doesnt move. She doesnt blink she just stares at the bridge below.

Ryan and Connor move in closer Ivy starts to back away

CONNOR

Theyre interrupted by the sound a woman screaming. Connor immediately sprints in the direction of the sound as Ryan trails Ivy behind.

EXT FOREST NIGHT

Connor rushes up to the screaming woman as Ryan and Ivy arrive

CONNOR
Whats wrong?

The woman simply grabs hold of him for dear life and points to Emma and Bonnie, both mauled to death on the floor.

Connor looks down in complete shock and disgust. Ryan immediately looks at Ivys hands and then at her, Connor soon does the same.

EXT FOREST NIGHT

IVY
No!

RYAN
Ivy

IVY
No, that wasntit wasnt

Ivy just looks at the bodies and the accusing eyes as before running off and out of the forest

CONNOR
Ivy!

RYAN
Ill go

Ryan nods to Ryan to draw the womans attention away, strangely he doesnt need to as her eyes are fixed on the body

He flickers away into the air.

Connor keeps his arm around the woman as he attempts to edge her from the forest

CUT TO.

INT GSPOT NIGHT

Ryan flickers into the a toilet cubicle hoping to go un-noticed. However he walks straight out of the door and into Jones.

JONES
I thought youd left

RYAN
Um yeah I came back

JONES
So I see. Whats up?

RYAN

JONES
Way to encourage!

RYAN

JONES

JONES/RYAN

MARIA

JONES

RYAN
Ivys still alive were staying at your home so we cant hide it. Shes human now and she was actually under a curse thought we do have a slight suspicious that she may have just killed a woman and her dog in the woods. So were about to do some research.

MARIA
(long pause)
Um.okay, that waswow

RYAN

MARIA

RYAN
Finding her and stopping her.

MARIA
(suspicious)
Does Faith and the girls know about this?

RYAN

So are you in or out?

CUT TO.

INT MARIAS HOUSE NIGHT

MARIA

RYAN

MARIA
Okay, locator spell?

JONES

JONES
Ivy

MARIA

RYAN
Wait, how is research going to help us?

JONES
Hows it not? If we know more about her then well know more about her killing style

RYAN

MARIA

RYAN

MARIA

RYAN

MARIA

MARIA

JONES
Rhetorical. Shes a siren, women who lure men to the death

MARIA
Okay, Im pretty sure Tara left the book here
(scanning shelf)
Here

CUT TO.

EXT FOREST NIGHT

Connor nods as police officers seal the area off and leave for the night.

From nowhere a light whistling appears.

CONNOR
Hello?

The whistling once again becomes a howling. Louder obviously due to Connors sensitive hearing.

The light begins to dash toward him but, with his supernatural skills he dashes out of the way and comes face to face with the light before it vanishes.

Seconds later, Ivy appears.

IVY
Connor?

CONNOR
Ivywhen did you get here?

IVY
Just a minute ago

CONNOR
When that thing left?

IVY
What thing?

CONNOR
Just stay away from me okay? Ive tried to help you and I cant so stay away!

Connor runs from Ivy who is left looking shocked and sad as she rolls up her sleeve, her hand still covered in blood. A single deep cut goes vertically down her wrist.

She steps up to the edge of the bridge once again and looks into the water. Stepping up to the side as she begins to cry.

She looks out into the distance where Connor is still running away, to one side of him she spots the shadow of a dimmed light. Bravely facing her reflection she steps down from the bridge and heads out after the shape.

CUT TO.

INT MARIAS NIGHT

Connor bursts through the door panting

CONNOR
Its her, its Ivy

IVY (O.S)
Its not me

MARIA
What are you doing here?

IVY
Its a banshee. I wasnt up there to kill people. I was there to kill my self but Im not going to do that. I done wrong and I deserve everything I get, but thats it, I deserve it. I dont deserve help and I cant escape it. I deserve to deal with it.

Silence.

JONES
Banshee?

IVY
A Legend, though written as a myth. Similar to mine I guess. Old lady sings a chorus from the mountains and literally turns the lives of the isolates inside out.

RYAN
Shes right
(beat)
Shes not guilty

IVY
Oh were all guilty, all of us at some time or another. Tonight more than ever

MARIA
Why?

IVY
The Banshee sleeps a hundred years unless woken, the activities tonight and

JONES
Today, Faith and I went swimming
(angry)
God

IVY
Fine. You both woke her and now Connor and I have bought her here

MARIA
I didnt do anything

IVY
You held us in you home. She cant come in and so shes gonna be looking for the next person to piss her off. Look, Im not heading to be the heroine here but I know where Id go If I wanted to get some easily distracted and fresh meat.

CUT TO.

INT GSPOT NIGHT

Faith and Dawn have now stopped dancing, Andrew is talking to the wallpaper and Thalia looks bored.

DAWN
Im exhausted

FAITH
Im not surprised you dance like speed on speed

DAWN
Ill take that as a compliment

FAITH
Take it how you like it

DAWN
Ive never heard this song

All of them pay attention to a thumping dance track with a hissing whistle in the background.

FAITH
Its too loud, the whistle drowns out the bass.

THALIA
Thats great can wewhat the hell is she doing here?

All three girls stand up sharp as Ivy enters in a panic, they look even more confused when Connor, Ryan, Maria and Jones join her

DAWN
Isnt she dead?
(beat)
Connor what is going on?

CONNOR
Ivy was aits a thing we have to leave

DAWN
Not until you tell me whats going on?
(beat)
Is she going to sing?

Dawn looks over at Ivy whos taken the mic from the DJ and suspended it from the ceiling.

RYAN
Dawn will you just leave and do as he says!

THALIA
Dont talk to her like that if she doesnt want to leave then shes not and GOD what is that whistling?

RYAN
Get out!

FAITH
Why?

MARIA
Because if you dont let us do this really not easy plan then were all going to die and this is one thing, for once, that the three of you cant handle so just leave.

JONES
Faith.

FAITH
Im going.

Faith looks into Jones eyes and sees the desperation. She lifts Andrew and smashes her elbow into the fire alarm clearing everyone out.

DAWN
What about Ivy? Whats going on?

CONNOR
She says she knows what shes doing
(beat)
I trust her

Dawn looks in complete shock before reluctantly leaving.

EXT GSPOT NIGHT

The crowds are clearing with the exception of the gang

FAITH
So whats the deal?

JONES
The Banshee it killed a girl and her dog when we woke it up in the woods its pissed and on its way here

FAITH
What?

JONES
Its coming! You can get to Marias if you runand when I say run I mean as if this were Jurassic Park.

All the girls pause one last time before Maria leads the off, the banshee slowly drifts around the corner in non corporeal (misty) form

JONES
Talk about throwing your voice

RYAN
You think she can do it?

CONNOR
We dont know what it isbut shell do it. You ready?

Ryan nods as Jones and Connor grab hold of him, he flickers away before the banshee reaches him. Slowly the banshee drifts down to the bottom of the stairs to come face to face with Ivy. The Banshee takes solid form and grins menacingly.

END OF PART THREE

INT GSPOT NIGHT

Before the banshee can sing, Ivy leaps across the room and smacks her hands down on the button of DJ decks. Music blares out at a great level as she tears the cover off of the speaker and climbs inside.

The banshee begins to scream its song as it tears the cover from the speaker just a minute after Ivy entered.

She falls out, ears bleeding constantly. Eyes wide with pain. Dead.

The Banshees eyes begin to roll back into its head as the sound of its own voice played back to it, building pressure before it exploded on the spot.

MINUTES LATER

Connor, Ryan, Jones, Maria, Thalia, Dawn and Faith approach Ivy with caution. She remains motionless as Connor approaches her.

Falling to her side.

RYAN
Connor?

CONNOR
She got it done

DAWN
She did this?

CONNOR
The Banshee could only be killed if nobody could hear it
(looking at her bloodied ears)
If it could only sing to itself
(beat)
Because then it finally has to accept that its the same as its victims

DAWN
Alone.

The group takes a moment in silence, everyone, even the girls, looks deeply sad. Connor looks riddled with failure

CONNOR
Im sorry

He plants a single kiss on her head before standing up

CONNOR
Sorry I couldnt save you

FADE TO.

EXT IVYS HOUSE DAY

Connor is stood in the garden, picking at the leaves of the Ivy on the wall

DAWN (O.S)
Hey

CONNOR
Hey

DAWN
Figures youd be here

CONNOR
Predictable

DAWN
Not so much Connor listen

CONNOR
I let her down Dawn

DAWN
What?

CONNOR
Under all her evil, all her lies it was all because of the pain of being alone and I let her die. Alone.

DAWN
Connor, you didnt do that. She chose to do that, in her eyes it was her redemption. I dont know what went on with both of you but I know you felt that it was the right thing to do and you did

CONNOR
Did what?

DAWN
Save her

Connor looks at Dawn with a half smile, an understanding.

Dawn nods and begins to walk away

DAWN
And Connor
(smiles)
Youre not alone
