EXT – LARGE FOREST – NIGHT

‘Tibet, January 2000’

An old man stands alone in the middle of a desert, his only light is that of a fading fire and the full moon.

He glares as the wind picks up and the clouds slowly part. The fire is blown out. Still his face does not change, not even when hearing the fierce growling that comes from the darkness.

A large, vicious sounding beast scrapes through the shadows

MAN
Calm yourself, go to the place

The beast begins to growl louder, approaching the man slowly

MAN
Think of what makes you happy, what calms you – breathe in and
(smiling)
That’s better

The man offers his hand into the shadows and helps a smiling Oz to his feet.

OZ
Cool.

CUT TO.

CHERRY
You’re soaking wet

DAWN
I went swimming

CHERRY
In your clothes?

DAWN
I’m shy

DAWN

Dawn storms past them and heads straight upstairs before slamming the door shut.

ASIA/CHERRY/FELICIA
Time of the month

CUT TO.

INT – DAWNS ROOM – DAY

Dawn kicks her boots off across the room and scampers into the bathroom. She emerges seconds later, having replaced her wet clothes with a dressing gown.

Dawn sits in front of her mirror combing her hair before getting annoyed and giving up. She grabs the phone from the side and paces by the window

DAWN
Faith, go to the forest and kill a big dog

FAITH
What?

DAWN
It just threw me in the river and stole some old ladies purse
(beat)
It ate her small dog

FAITH
Why are you calling me?

DAWN
I’m wet I had to get changed

FAITH
You’re meant to be at the airport twenty minutes ago

DAWN
Argh!

Dawn slams the phone down and walks out of the door

ASIA
Where are you going?

DAWN
Airport

ASIA
You’re not dressed

DAWN
I don’t care

CUT TO.

EXT – FORESTS – NIGHT

Faith is cautiously covering the grounds as she holds a crossbow close to her.

FAITH
Here Scooby, come to play
(beat)
If I get fleas I’m gonna kill her

Faith is knocked face down to the ground as, from nowhere, one of the beasts comes charging out of a bush and crashes directly into her.

Three others emerge almost immediately, but run off into the night after looking over to Faith and the beast.

Faith flips up to her feet and kicks the wolf in the face at least a half dozen times before sending it flying into a tree. She lifts the crossbow to her eye’s level and it ready to shoot as it morphs into Oz.

FAITH
What the…

OZ
Faith

FAITH
(rolls eyes)
Sunnydale kids
(pause)
You might wanna get some clothes on

END OF PART ONE

INT – FAITH’S APARTMENT – NIGHT

Faith enters with a limping Oz, she slumps him down on the chair and heads into the bathroom.

FAITH (O.S)
So you’ve just spent the last two years hunting werewolves and training them to control themselves?

OZ
Pretty much

FAITH
(entering with bandages)
Sounds peachy

OZ
Can be

FAITH
Here
(wraps bandage over his arm)
that do?

OZ
Nurse Faith.
(pause)
I take this to mean you stopped killing people?

FAITH
Seven years now

OZ
I’m so proud

FAITH
(laughs)
Thanks Oz

OZ
So, anything interesting happened in the past few years?

FAITH
Willow’s gay you knew that right? Riley left and Buffy died but came back and started getting groiny with Spike but he died to save a bunch of potential slayers who were being killed by The First after Willow bought Buffy back then went crazy and started killing people after Tara got shot by some geek
(takes a breath)
Then, Sunnydale got swallowed because of Spike dying but he came back and moved to LA where Cordelia was in a coma for giving birth to the black, full grown daughter of Angels white, eighteen month slash year old son.
(breathe)
I dated a principal after I broke out of prison and I came here and died but Dawn, who by the way is now my sister and if you didn’t know – isn’t real, well she cried and bought me back to life then this little girl tried to kill us and Tara moved away after coming back from the dead and it’s been a crazy few years. You?

OZ
(long pause)
Riley left?

FAITH
Very funny – I could go on

OZ
Please, don’t

FAITH
You know about Xander right? The eye thing?

OZ
Anya told me

FAITH
You see Anya a lot?

OZ
Not really, I was visiting Hepatic in Tibet and she had a job going there

FAITH
Sounds like Anya to me

DAWN (O.S)
Sorry, Faith has a spare…
(pause)
key

OZ
Hey Dawn

Tara enters behind Dawn, she locks eyes on Oz as discomfort floods through the both of them

FAITH
Don’t worry Oz, she’s not dead anymore

CUT TO.

EXT – BOSTON TOWN – NIGHT

Tara and Oz are walking slowly and silently along the street, the tension is unbearable


TARA
S-So

OZ
Yep

TARA
You here long?

OZ
Just passing through
(beat)
You?

TARA
Oh, um, just passing through

OZ
Nice

TARA
Oz…

OZ
Tara – you don’t have to be like this around me.

TARA
Really?

OZ
I don’t even want to hear how happy the two of you are, but I know it’s true. I can deal. I haven’t seen her for six years.

TARA
This is it

OZ
You’re not coming in?

TARA
For a little while

OZ
Cool.

Tara gives an awkward smile as she leads Oz into Maria’s house

INT – MARIA’S HOUSE – NIGHT

TARA
H-Hello?

MARIA (O.S)
Is that who I think it is?

TARA
Hey

MARIA
Hey? I haven’t seen my girl for six months and I get “hey”?
(pause)
Ooh
(smiles)
You bought me a present, albeit a small one, but a cute one

TARA
T-this is Oz

MARIA
Oh, my newest house guest

OZ
Hey

MARIA

TARA
She’s kidding

OZ
Nice

MARIA

OZ
(nods)
Room?

MARIA

(beat before screaming)
CONNOR!

CONNOR (O.S)

MARIA

Connor comes skulking down the stairs like his Mother just ordered him to eat his greens before pudding

MARIA
Show Oz his room

CONNOR
Hey

OZ
Angels son?

CONNOR
Yep

OZ
Cool

CONNOR
Wolf guy?

OZ
Part time

CONNOR

Connor grabs Oz’ bag and runs back up the stairs, Oz following behind

MARIA
Well that’s a conversation to enthral you

Tara laughs before linking arms with Maria

MARIA
I think this calls for wine

CUT TO.

INT – DAWNS HOUSING – NIGHT

Clock: 3am

Dawn comes plodding down the stairs barely awake as she strolls through the kitchen and grabs a bottle of water from the fridge.

She drops it in reaction to a screaming from upstairs.

Immediately she sprints to the top where she finds Asia shaking in the corner of the room, glass shattered all around her.

DAWN
Asia what happened?

ASIA
A dog…

DAWN
Werewolf

ASIA
What?

DAWN
Nothing…where’s Cherry?

ASIA
It took her

DAWN
What?

ASIA
She’s gone

CHERRY (O.S)
No, I’m not…

Cherry stands in the door way

CHERRY
I’m right here, what happened?

CUT TO.

INT – MARIA’S HOUSE – EARLY MORNING

Maria strides down the stairs half asleep as she fastens her dressing gown

MARIA
I’m coming! Quit knocking

DAWN

Dawn shoves past Maria

DAWN

MARIA
Come in why don’t you?

DAWN
Is he upstairs?

MARIA

DAWN

OZ
What? Is she okay?

DAWN
She’ll live
(beat)
What’s going on?

CUT TO.

INT – BOSTON MALL – DAY

Andrew is wondering out of the store practically buried under boxes and bags

FAITH
Need help?

In shock Andrew drops all of the boxes

ANDREW
You scared me

FAITH
Sorry I forgot how threatening help can be

ANDREW
Funny girl

FAITH
Short guy
(beat)
Why do you have…about a thousand disposable cups?

ANDREW

FAITH
You know what’s sad? I actually believe you
(pause)
Come on I’ll help you to the car

ANDREW
Van

FAITH

INT – BOSTON COLLEGE – DAY

Thalia is sat in class as she hears her phone begins to vibrate against her leg

THALIA
Ha!

TEACHER
Shh!

THALIA
Sorry!

She looks down at the text message “look at the door”

Dawn is stood there waving frantically

***the following dialogue until the next set of stars is mouthed***

THALIA
What?

DAWN
Come on

THALIA
What?

DAWN
Come. On!

THALIA
Where?

DAWN
Yes, werewolves?

THALIA
Wear wool?

Dawn rolls her eyes and breathes on the window before writing werewolves in it.

THALIA
Huh?

DAWN
Just ask to go to the bathroom!

THALIA
Okay

***end***

Thalia sticks her thumbs up

THALIA
Ow!

TEACHER
A problem Ms. Bennett?

THALIA
Time of the month can I…

TEACHER
You may be excused
(beat)
Even if you’ve been on for the past three weeks

EXT – THALIA’S CLASS – DAY

DAWN
Are you stupid or something?

THALIA
No but you mime like an armless, mouthless idiot

DAWN
Way to get me with my miming skills

THALIA
Is this a social call because I’m in the middle of a test

DAWN
Werewolves

THALIA
…more…

DAWN
Apparently Oz has been following this gang all the way from Los Angeles, some girl called Nina and a few others

THALIA
So?

DAWN
Nina was a client of Angels about three years ago before he died – she got sorted but went off the deep end, Oz has been trying to help her, trying to control her but she’s into the rage and out for the kill big time

THALIA
So is this a capture and save mission or a kill and live?

DAWN
Faith and Oz are doing the hunting

THALIA
What are we doing?

DAWN
Oh, nothing I just figured you should know

THALIA
You’re kidding?

DAWN
No
(beat)
I can’t text in these nails

THALIA
(sigh)
There’s only an hour left of class, then three after that

DAWN
Oh…

THALIA
I won’t miss anything, let’s go

CUT TO.

INT – MARIA’S BASEMENT – SUNSET

TARA
How did I never notice that?

MARIA
Beats me, but I was kinda pissed

TARA
I should sue

MARIA
Yeah that’ll stand up in court – we grew a door but it ran away
(beat)
Oh, I have your rent by the way

TARA
Actually I kind of wanted to speak about that

MARIA
I’m so sorry it’s late

TARA
Yeah, um, Maria sit down

MARIA
Rent increase?

TARA
No

MARIA
Thank god because honestly there’s no way I could’ve…

TARA
I have to sell the house

MARIA
What?

TARA
I’m s-s-so sorry, but I h-have to

MARIA
Why?

TARA
I have no money

MARIA
You get free room and board what do you need money for?

TARA
To live my life

MARIA
I can’t believe this

TARA
I am sorry

CUT TO.

EXT – FOREST – NIGHT

FAITH
You’d better be right about this because I have people to do and things to see

OZ
Over there

FAITH
You said that twelve times

OZ
They have legs

FAITH
Go figure

OZ
Don’t move

FAITH
Oz I think I can tell when to…

And Faiths taken down.

Oz stares up at the sky and grits his teeth as he begins to transform – he stops at half form so to keep control of his human self but have the strength and ability of the wolf.

FAITH
Oz!

Oz tackles the wolf and the two of them tear at each other viciously as Faith tried to get a clear target with the tranquilliser gun

OZ
Nina listen to me I know you’re in there, you need to stop what you’re doing

FAITH
Oz…

OZ
Nina!

Slowly, from underneath Oz, the wolf changes into…

OZ
You’re not Nina

FELICIA
(crying)
My names Felicia…w-what’s happening to me?

OZ
It’s okay. Do you know anyone called Nina?

CUT TO.

INT – DAWNS HOUSING – NIGHT

Thalia and Dawn enter, carrying a large bottle of wine

DAWN
I can’t believe he didn’t I.D you

THALIA
It’s the chest – works every time

CHERRY
Hey

DAWN
Oh, hey – sorry, I didn’t realise you were home we’ll keep it down
(beat)
Where are you?

CHERRY
Argh!

DAWN
Cherry?

Cherry slips out of the darkness – half were wolf form

DAWN
How did I not see this one coming?

CHERRY
You’re an idiot

DAWN
Hey!

THALIA
She’s right

DAWN
Hey!

THALIA
Sorry, so is this the infamous Nina? You’re not Cherry right?

CHERRY
Surprised it took you so long

DAWN
Why?

CHERRY
Hello, Cherry! Nina Cherry!

THALIA
Maybe it took so long because her names Nena you idiot!

Cherry stares hard at Thalia before increasing her form and launching Thalia out through the window

DAWN
God! Can’t I live in this college for more than a week without demons breaking things?!

Cherry leaps over a table at Dawn and lunges onto her, Dawn flips her over using her legs against Cherry’s stomach. Cherry crashes into the wall as Faith and Oz spring in through the door.

FAITH
Dawn!

DAWN
I’m okay…

OZ
Nina…you don’t wanna do this, you’re still in there

DAWN
Oz…she’s choosing this

OZ
Dawn you don’t understand, the wolf takes you over

DAWN
Oz, she controls her form –

OZ
No.

DAWN
Oz…

OZ
Shut up

FAITH
Don’t Oz

CHERRY
What’s the matter Daniel, can’t face what I’ve told you all along?

FAITH/DAWN
Daniel?

OZ
Nina, you’re still in there

CHERRY
Don’t you get it? I’m choosing this – I choose to kill these people

FAITH
Oz, dude

OZ
Faith I’ve been tracking her for two years and I’m not giving up now

FAITH
You have to Oz, she’s long given up herself

DAWN
It’s not her Oz

CHERRY
What’s the matter? Can’t you handle the failure, that you let another one turn?

Oz looks to the floor, when he looks up he’s in form as he lunges across the room and leaps onto Nina.

OZ
Sorry

He grabs a letter opener from the table and forces it into her neck

FAITH
Oz?

DAWN
I…I’m gonna go check on Tee

FAITH
Oz you couldn’t help her, sometimes you’ve just gotta let go

OZ
Faith. I don’t feel much like talking right now. I’m gonna go get my stuff and see you at the next reunion

FAITH
Most words I’ve ever heard you say

OZ
Bye

FAITH
Keep peace Oz

Faith watches as Oz walks away, kicking his feet along the ground

END OF PART THREE

EXT – BOSTON STREET – DAY

Tara is walking with Dawn towards the taxi

TARA
He just left?

DAWN
Walked off into the moonset

TARA
God

DAWN
I know

TARA
You think he’ll be all right?

DAWN
I think he’ll survive. I just, I don’t think it’s the last we’ve seen of him

TARA
Maybe

DAWN
Well, by we I mean you – I expect this requires Willow talk

TARA
W-Willow talk? Really?

DAWN
Don’t be jealous. She’s gay

TARA
Willow’s gay?

Both laugh

TARA
Come here

Tara squeezes Dawn tightly

TARA
I’m gonna miss you – take care of yourself okay?

DAWN
I will

TARA
I can’t believe you’re not coming to New York

DAWN
Sorry, my schedule doesn’t permit – plus, Darren’s bringing Ryan’s sister over, hence him doing some last minute shopping elsewhere

TARA
Okay, well I’ll call you from New York okay?

DAWN
(laughs)
Bye Tara

Dawn waves as the taxi drives away

ANDREW (O.S)
Dawnie!

DAWN
Hey stranger – haven’t heard from you for days

ANDREW
I was busy

DAWN
Building a fort?

ANDREW
Maybe
(pause)
Come on!

Andrew grabs Dawn by the hand and pulls her off along the street

CUT TO.

EXT – THE BAR – DAY

FAITH
It’s about time – Andrew why are we here?

THALIA
Faith, are you really that slow?

CONNOR
What’s going on?

ANDREW
Okay, um, here…

Andrew passes out plastic cups and pours lemonade into them

ANDREW
They wouldn’t let me buy champagne

DAWN
Andrew what is this?

MARIA
Come on I need the bathroom

ANDREW
Okay well I’m not re-opening the bar because that’s creepy but I have been thinking and…well, since Dolly’s shut down and we have nowhere to hang except Faith’s dingy apartment (Faith looks annoyed) I now announce Parker’s Place – the only sci-fi, diner slash bar in the … world!

Andrew pulls the sign down as everyone looks up in bemusement

DAWN
Andrew this is great!

THALIA/FAITH/MARIA/CONNOR
Who’s Parker?
