DARREN
What did she say?
WILLOW
Got to contact her every thirty-five seconds with reassurance and update
JAMIE
So, who did this?
WILLOW
I’ve got a feeling who is not what, I think what’s the what
JAMIE
What?
(to Darren)
Do any of your “special” friends speak normal? Translate
DARREN
This wasn’t a human attack
TARA
You think a-a demon did this?
DARREN
You think anything else could?
TARA
I guess not but, if it can do that to Dawn, t-to the Guardian then we don’t stand a chance
DARREN
I know
JAMIE
Hello! What is the tweedle dumb and tweedle dumb as it gets? A mega witch zombie, a goddess, a slayer, super jungle boy, a gypsy and three guardians! Wow, hard ride you got there!
TARA
I-I’m not a, uh, I’m not a zombie
JAMIE
Whatever okay, you guys are clueless you can take out anything you want!

We could maybe form the corners, see if the four guardian’s can bring her back
WILLOW
She hasn’t gone anywhere
DARREN
Bring her round then
TARA
Wait, where’s Thalia an-and Ryan wouldn’t they have b-been here by now?

CUT TO.
INT – ANDREW’S BAR – DAY
Connor is sat at the bar drinking the day away, a look of pain across his face
Maria and Andrew watch from the other end of the bar.
ANDREW
You think I should talk to him?
MARIA
That depends, to you…value your life
ANDREW
That bad?
MARIA
He killed a lamp on the way over

Ouch!
MARIA
Have you heard from the other’s yet?
ANDREW
No, Willow’s been trying to find them all day
CONNOR
Who?!
ANDREW
(scared)
Thalia and…and Ryan

Where are you going?
CONNOR
I have something I need to do
MARIA
Connor wait!
(ignored)
CONNOR!
END OF PART ONE
INT – HOSPITAL – NIGHT
Jones arrives at the hospital with a large bunch of flowers
JONES
Excuse me nurse, I’ve just been to Dawn Summer’s room and…her sister was there earlier, do you know where she went?
NURSE
Sorry, she had to leave. She said it’s “too much” and ran out like a maniac
JONES
Good wording, I can tell you’re a people person
Jones walks off, the nurse looks around suspiciously before entering a closet. Faith is tied up and gagged. She’s passed out. The nurse pulls her hat and glasses off releasing long blonde hair
LINDA
Linda’s gonna get the last laugh bitch
She smile’s wickedly.
CUT TO.
INT – FAITH’S APARTMENT – NIGHT
Connor smashes through the door and stops in his tracks
TARA
What’s happening?
Darren stands up and gets right in Connor’s face.
CONNOR
Don’t even think it
DARREN
Don’t even try it
CONNOR
How do you know what I’m gonna try
DARREN
Are you a psychic?
CONNOR
No
DARREN
Then how do you know what I’m thinking?
CONNOR
Get out of my way
DARREN
This is not the time or place for trouble, got it?
CONNOR
Where. Is. Thalia!?
Darren doesn’t move, Connor grabs him by the collar and tosses him across the room, crashing on top of a table
He kicks the door off of Thalia’s room and sniff’s the air.
Connor (now being watched from the door by Willow and Tara) tears the door from her closet. She’s sat in the corner crying
CONNOR
Get. Up.
She doesn’t move
Connor grabs her by both arms and tears her out of the closet, dropping her as he does
CONNOR
I said get up!
WILLOW
Connor!
CONNOR
What happened?
THALIA
I…
CONNOR
You’ve been here today, I know you have and he was here to…I can smell him so don’t try and lie to me. Tell me what happened!
Thalia doesn’t say anything. Connor picks her up and holds her against the wall.
TARA
Stop!
Connor looks at her hard, disgusted.
CONNOR
I’ll find him myself.
He releases her, she falls down crying.
CONNOR
If you’re here when I get back, I will kill you
THALIA
Connor…
CONNOR
That’s not a threat
Connor steams out of the house, stopped in the street by Jones
JONES
Hey, you okay?
CONNOR
(through teeth)
Have you seen Ryan?
JONES
No, sorry buddy, you seen Faith anywhere?
CONNOR
I have to go
Connor walks off
JONES
Thanks for the help!
CUT TO.
INT – WAREHOUSE – NIGHT
Faith comes round to see Linda in front of her.
FAITH
Jesus, don’t you ever give up
Faith is about to break free from the rope
LINDA
Now, now I don’t think that’s a good idea do you?
FAITH
What you think you’re gonna kick my ass or something?
LINDA
No, but if you move I’ll push this button on my watch and you’ll be really uncomfortable with the shock it gives you
FAITH
Check you out, all high tech and no sanity
Linda smiles as she flicks the button
LINDA
I did warn you
Faith writhes in pain
FAITH
Why are you still doing this?
LINDA
Because, you whore, you killed my family and you ruined my life
FAITH
So it wasn’t the fact you’re completely screwed up that done that?
LINDA
This stuff doesn’t work on me Faith, I know what you’re trying to do
FAITH
What’s that?
LINDA
You’re trying to make me vulnerable
FAITH
Here I was thinking I was trying to piss you off
Linda’s smile drops as she slams her hand on the button and keeps it there.
CUT TO.
INT – FAITH’S APARTMENT – NIGHT
Darren, Willow, Jamie, Tara and Maria are sat in front of Thalia like a jury.
THALIA
You need to find him
JAMIE
Look lady, I don’t know you but you’re already on my hit list because you’re pissing me off past realistic levels. Stop crying and get a bloody grip.
Everyone backs off a little shocked
JAMIE
What?
THALIA
Ryan
TARA
W-what about him?
THALIA
You have to find him…right away
MARIA
What’s going on?
JAMIE
I know exactly what’s going on.
(hard)
If that guy with the bar hair doesn’t kill you, I’m next in line.
Jamie walks out closely followed by Darren
EXT – FAITH’S APARTMENT – DAY
DARREN
Jay, what’s going on?
JAMIE
Nothing you can handle
DARREN
Even after your speech?
JAMIE
This is gonna take one hell of a lot more than speeches Darren
DARREN
Jamie, just tell me what’s going on
JAMIE
It’s Ryan, this is the first time this has happened to him ever. His father was really unstable, we’re talking the love child of Hannibal lectar and Norman Bates here.
DARREN
Whoa, what happened?
JAMIE
You ever seen someone get really angry?
DARREN
Sure
JAMIE
What about someone who’s half demon, you ever seen that get angry?
DARREN
Occasionally
JAMIE
You ever see someone lose their temper so much that the demon consumes their humanity and tears people to shreds in front of you, because I have when I was fourteen. Ryan’s Mum told his Father that she was marrying my Dad…I’ve never seen anything like it.
DARREN
Jamie…
JAMIE
I don’t get this Guardian thing okay, I never will because what I’ve seen? Nothing can stop that and it’s happened to Ryan, I can feel it
DARREN
How did they stop his Father?
JAMIE
When did I say they stopped him?
CUT TO.
EXT – SPRING CARNIVAL – DAY
Connor is marching through the streets sniffing Ryan out.
Reacting to a scream, Connor sprints over to the crowd. A body, or a mangled corpse is thrown to his feet. He looks up in shock to see “Demon!Ryan”
Unrecognisable, Ryan’s skin is rough and a murky greyish green colour. It’s split all over like trillions of paper cut’s. His eyes are an almost blinding bright green. He’s around eight feet tall and wide as two built men. His arms are long and strong with black, blood dripped talons at the ends.
Ryan immediately spot’s Connor and begins to run for him. Connor leaps into a kick only to be flung back into a wall, crushed against it like a rag doll.
Holding his sides, Connor begins to run, making sure Ryan stayed in for the chase.
He’s limping along desperately trying to stop from passing out. He runs through the nearest open door to him.
FAITH
Connor?
Connor looks at Faith a little bemused as Linda steps out
LINDA
So you’ve come to help your friend?
CONNOR
Who are you?
LINDA
Oh please
CONNOR
Listen lady we’ve got bigger problems right now
LINDA
Oh? What sort of…
Linda stops talking as the wall behind her is completely removed and she is cut directly in half from right shoulder, to under her left breast.
FAITH
What the…
Connor unties Faith and pulls on her arm
FAITH
We’ve gotta fight this thing
CONNOR
No, we’ve got to run, we can’t take this alone
FAITH
Come on!
Ryan continues forward and slams his hand on the ground, splitting it all the way long to where they’re standing
FAITH
Running is good.
Both sprint with all their energy as the building begins to crumble on Ryan. Both collapse to the ground as it cave’s in.
FAITH
What was that?
CONNOR
(breathless)
Ryan
