Wolf Virus - Infection By Seth Rex
EXT. ROAD - NIGHT
Here everything seems peaceful. But soon we see someone walking down the road. As we get a closer look, this is a young woman, seemingly naked. She had blood around her mouth. She seems to be walking down the side of the road. She's got her arms crossed. She also seems to be shivering.
EXT. HOUSE - NIGHT
A woman is cleaning a rug in front of her house. She looks down the road and notices nothing at first. She continues cleaning the rug. But something makes her look up the road again. She then sees the girl walking down the road.
WOMAN Oh good god.
She goes into her house and comes out with a blanket. She runs over to the girl.
WOMAN Dear are you alright? Say something.
The girl just looks at her. The woman can see the blood on her mouth.
WOMAN Oh my.
She puts the blanket around the girl and nudges her toward the house.
WOMAN Come with me dear. We'll get you cleaned up and dressed.
INT. HOUSE - NIGHT
They walk into the house. The girl looks around the house to see what is going on. She looks at the woman. The woman pulls out a chair and has the girl sit down. The woman goes to find a change of clothes for the girl. She comes out with some fresh underwear and jeans and a shirt.
WOMAN You look the size of my daughter Lisa. God bless her, living in the city now. Comes to visit every once in a while.
She puts the clothes on a bed in another room. She then comes and fetches the girl. She brings the girl to the room.
WOMAN You just put those on. Don't worry, my daughter won't miss those.
The girl just looks at her and looks at the clothes.
GIRL Is there a bathroom?
WOMAN Of coarse there is. Come now. Lets get you dressed and cleaned up for a bit of a meal. You must be hungry.
They walks to the bathroom where the girl looks at herself in the mirror. She does nothing but she's shivering. She touches her face where the blood is.
WOMAN Don't worry dear, I won't let anyone trouble you. I'm the only one here at the moment.
She then closes the door. The girl then tries to clean the blood off. It comes off, but for some odd reason she has the taste of blood in her mouth. She brushes her teeth and gargles mouth wash. The taste seems to go away slightly.
The woman walks to the kitchen and sits down.
WOMAN Poor dear. Something must have frightened her. Just wait till my husband gets here.
She then gets to fixing up a bit of supper for the girl.
WOMAN Dear must be hungry.
She walks toward the door and knocks gently.
WOMAN Are you dressed?
The door opens and the girl is dressed in the woman's daughter's clothing.
WOMAN Good now see how much better you feel?
The woman walks back to the kitchen to fix up the meal. She is ready. The girl walks to the kitchen and sits down. The woman puts down the meal in front of her and she just garbles it down.
WOMAN Oh my you were hungry.
The girl just looks at her.
GIRL More please.
WOMAN Sure thing.
She takes the plate and put out another helping of dinner. She then give sit to the girl, who this time takes it slowly.
WOMAN Quite an appetite.
She then sits down to watch the girl.
WOMAN Where do you come from?
The girl looks at the woman. She seems to be thinking. She doesn't remember now. All she does remember is camping, and a forest...and A house. But there are empty spaces between certain places in her memory that stop her from understanding just how she got on the road, walking naked.
GIRL I can't remember.
WOMAN That's OK dear. You rest now. Your safe.
Then the woman goes to fix up a bed for the girl. The girl looks around. Everything is new to her. Its as if she's been reborn. She looks to where the woman had gone. She stands up. The dinner is gone again from the plate.
The girl walks to the room where the woman is. She looks at the bed, then to the woman.
GIRL Who are you?
The woman turns to her.
WOMAN Oh my name is Peggy, dear.
Peggy readies the bed.
PEGGY Come dear, time to rest. I'm sure you've had a long walk. Time to sleep dear.
The girl walks toward the bed and lays down on it. She looks at the woman.
PEGGY I'll be outside the door if you need me.
The girl nods her head and then slowly closes her eyes. Peggy walks out the room and slowly closes the door so that the girl can rest in peace.
EXT. ROAD - MOMENTS LATER
A car is driving down the road. Driving the car, Harold thinks he spots a car in the distance. As Harold drives his car closer, he sees that it is a car.
HAROLD What the hell?
He parks the car on the side of the road and gets out. He walks toward the other car, that apparently has the two left side doors open. He walks and sees blood on the seats.
HAROLD Dear god.
He hears movement in the woods around him. He, pulling out a flashlight from his own car, flashes the light into the forest. He sees nothing. He gets back into his car and begins to back up. Suddenly something runs across the road. Harold is nervous, because he thinks it is an animal. Suddenly something knocks on the window and he looks out. Its a man.
ADAM Excuse me. Have you seen a girl around here?
Harold Takes a breath of relief.
HAROLD No sir. Excuse me but you gave me a right fright. Thought there was something in the woods.
ADAM I do apologize.
There is a sound from nearby.
HAROLD Did you hear that?
Adam looks around to see where it came from.
HAROLD Where are you housed?
ADAM Other side of the woods.
HAROLD Come on get inside. Sounds dangerous whatever it is.
Adam gets into his car. They drive off. As we look down on the road, we see the body of a person, as it slowly moves towards the space where the car was.
INT. HOUSE - MOMENTS LATER
Harold and Adam walk into the house.
HAROLD Well its not much. But make yourself at home.
Adam looks around the house, almost making a sniffing motion. He smells something that seems familiar to him but only makes a mental note of it.
ADAM Not a bad place.
He takes a seat on a chair in the kitchen. He notes that a plate has been used for food.
ADAM Got a wife?
HAROLD Yeah. Should be around here. Peggy we got a guest.
Peggy walks into the room.
PEGGY Oh Harold who is your friend?
HAROLD This here is...you know I don't even know your name.
ADAM That's alright. Its Adam ma'am.
PEGGY Ah well Adam have a spot of supper.
She readies some dinner for Adam and Harold.
PEGGY Harold I found a girl walking the street earlier tonight.
HAROLD A girl? What's a girl doing here at night, walking the street?
PEGGY That's not the worse of it. Poor dear looked like she was attacked or something. Was naked.
HAROLD Now that's strange. Ain't heard of any attacks in this area before. What about you Adam?
ADAM Not that I know of. I've heard some kids running and screaming around the forest where I live but as far as I know, nobody's been attacked.
Adam is hiding something. He thinks that this girl may be the one he's looking for, but how does he find out without making the family suspicious.
ADAM This girl...what did she look like?
HAROLD Adam here is looking for a girl. How I met up with him. Asked me if I saw a girl.
Adam looks at Harold for a few seconds. Adam now has no reason to hide his search for the girl.
ADAM He's correct. Apparently she went lost.
PEGGY Well then. Lets have a look see if its your girl.
Peggy leads Adam to the door where the girl is. Adam slowly opens the door a bit. He takes a look to see the girl, and unknown to Peggy, he smiles. He then closes the door.
ADAM She's a pretty girl.
PEGGY So is she your girl?
ADAM Couldn't get a good look. Don't want to wake her. I'll come back tomorrow in my truck. I'll be heading off now.
HAROLD I'll take you back.
ADAM Thank you.
Adam and Harold leave the house. Peggy looks back at the door, and then leaves to her own room.
Meanwhile...
The girl is dreaming. She is having a nightmare. She envisions an attack, it seems as if it's her attacking someone. Suddenly...
INT. HOUSE - BEDROOM - MORNING
She wakes up. She looks out one of the windows. Its morning now. She sits up and puts her head in her hands. She gets up and decides to explore the house.
INT. HOUSE - MAIN ROOM
She walks out into the main part of the house and sees Peggy in the kitchen fixing breakfast. She decides to walk to the kitchen.
GIRL Hello.
Peggy turns and smiles.
PEGGY Hello dear. Are you well?
GIRL I guess so.
PEGGY Well I hope your hungry. I've cooked up a bit of breakfast for you and the husband.
Harold, the girl notices, is on the phone.
HAROLD Yes...I should have reported this last night but I didn't want to bother you. Its out on the road. Should still be there I'm sure. Great. I was there and so was a man named Adam. He was there where the car was a little later as i heard the sounds in the forest. Yes I'll be there later today. Of course, good to know.
Harold hangs up the phone.
HAROLD Well if this isn't the young lady Peggy's told me about. I see your better.
GIRL Yes thank you.
She sits down. They join her. Peggy sets out the breakfast for them.
PEGGY So dear, tell us about yourself.
The girl looks at them.
GIRL My name is Tiffany.
PEGGY Tiffany. That's a pretty name. What's a pretty girl doing here naked?
Tiffany can't seem to remember why she was walking down that road.
TIFFANY I don't know. I remember camping, being attacked by an animal...a house. I was back at the car.
Harold looks interested when she mentions the car. He has a recollection of the car that was found at the side of the road.
HAROLD The car must be hers.
PEGGY Poor dear must have been traumatized. Were you alone dear?
TIFFANY No I had friends.
HAROLD They ditched her. Plain and simple.
Tiffany looks at the floor. She's trying to remember what happened to her friends.
TIFFANY Attacked.
PEGGY What?
TIFFANY They were attacked. By something.
HAROLD By what? What was it?
TIFFANY I can't remember.
EXT. HOUSE - LATER
Tiffany stands around outside. She looks around at the road. Harold walks outside of the house.
HAROLD I'm going to the car I found. Fancy a ride?
TIFFANY Sure.
She gets into his car with him. They drive off.
EXT. ROAD - ABANDONED CAR
Harold parks his car on the opposite side of the road to where the abandoned car is. Tiffany gets out of the car and walks across the street.
Harold is waiting for the cop to arrive, which should be soon. Tiffany is looking at the car. She gets a flash of the car the night it stopped moving. She walks and looks into the car itself. She then looks at Harold.
TIFFANY I remember this car.
Harold looks at her.
HAROLD You do?
TIFFANY We drove it the day we went camping.
HAROLD Well that's something.
Harold looks on as the cop, Dickens, finally arrives. He pulls the car behind the abandoned car, and gets out.
DICKENS Sorry for the lateness Harold. Had a bit of a late start.
HAROLD That's fine. Got some info according to this girl. Her name is Tiffany. Apparently her friends and her were driving this car. They must have went camping in the woods near here.
DICKENS Really? Why would they leave it here of all places.
HAROLD Don't know. Lets ask her.
They turn to the girl, Tiffany. Tiffany looks at them.
TIFFANY I don't know why.
Dickens walks over to her.
DICKENS You don't remember anything about the nature of this incident.
Tiffany shakes her head. Dickens turns to Harold.
DICKENS Anyone live near here. Maybe they saw something, or know something about the these teens that went camping here.
HAROLD There is a guy named Adam that lives opposite these woods...there
He says as he points toward the woods where he's facing his car.
HAROLD (CONT'D) He might know something about them, if they were in these woods. He hears kids running around. Possibly he saw them.
Dickens nods his head.
DICKENS You go back to your house. I'll handle this Adam and get back to you.
HAROLD Right. Come on Tiffany.
Harold and Tiffany go back to his car and they get in, and drive off back to the car. This leaves Dickens there at the abandoned car. He looks towards the woods.
He goes to his car, gets his gun, makes sure its loaded, and holsters it. He also takes a tape recorder for taking notes. He then walks into the woods.
EXT. WOODS - DAY
Dickens walks through the woods. He's looking for any indication of the teens having gone camping. He looks around and keeps going. Soon he enters a clearing. In front of him is the remains of what appears to be a tent. He takes his tape recorder and makes a note
DICKENS There appears to be a tent. This is sufficient evidence of the teens going camping. Checking out the house that Harold mentioned. Perhaps the owner of the house knows of these teens.
He walks further through to the other side of the woods.
EXT. ADAM'S HOUSE - MOMENTS LATER
Dickens walks out to the clearing where Adam's house is. He walks over to the door and knocks. Nobody seems to answer. Dickens waits. He knocks again. Still nobody answers.
DICKENS Hello? Is anyone there?
Nobody answers. He decides to look around the house. He walks down the front steps and walks around the house. He walks towards the back of the house where he sees a barn. There is still nobody to be found.
Dickens walks towards the barn, thinking that someone is in there. As he walks closer, he hears a sort of banging on the walls. He takes out his gun, and walks cautiously around the barn to see where the door is. He slowly walks to where the door is, and then slowly opens it. He walks in and there in front of him on the other side, is a teenager zombie. The zombie is banging into the wall. Dickens doesn't know its a zombie yet. He thinks its a confused kid.
DICKENS You there. What's your name?
The zombie turns and notices Dickens. He then walks slowly towards him. It is now that Dickens can tell that something is wrong with the teen. The teen hisses. This for the audience, is Jackson. He hisses and is ready to pounce at Dickens. Dickens raises his gun.
DICKENS Don't come any closer. Stay where you are.
The zombie obviously doesn't listen. He moves ever closer to Dickens.
DICKENS Stop or I'll shoot. Damn it I'll do it.
The zombie Jackson moves closer. Dickens shoots Jackson in the leg but it doesn't even phase him. The zombie Jackson is ready to pounce at him. Just as Jackson does, Dickens shoots him in the head. Jackson falls dead.
DICKENS Jesus.
He stands there with his gun pointed upward, looking at what he had just shot. He then leaves in a hurry to get to his car.
INT. HOUSE - EVENING
Harold and Tiffany walk out of the car. Harold looks around he looks at Tiffany, which for some reason now doesn't look too good.
HAROLD Are you OK? You don't look too good.
TIFFANY I'm OK. Need rest.
They walk into the house. Tiffany walks into her rented bedroom to rest. Harold walks to the kitchen to sit down and drink something. Suddenly there's a knocking on the door.
HAROLD Door's unlocked!
Dickens walks into the house and closes the door behind him. He then walks to the kitchen.
DICKENS There's more to that man than you know.
HAROLD Why what is it?
DICKENS I went looking for Adam, and he was not there. Looking around, I found what appeared to be a zombie in his barn. I shot it dead. Whatever he had in his barn, it wasn't human.
At this news, Harold takes a big swig of his drink. He gets up and pours himself another glass of whatever he was drinking.
HAROLD Want something?
DICKENS No thanks.
HAROLD Want to stay for dinner? Your off duty by now anyway aren't you?
Dickens looks at his watch.
DICKENS Yeah actually I am. Why not.
INT. HOUSE - KITCHEN - LATER - NIGHT
Peggy walks into the kitchen as she's cooking up the dinner.
PEGGY Poor dear is not feeling well at all. I had her go to bed.
HAROLD Well she's going to miss dinner then.
PEGGY I'll save her some for later if she feels up to it.
She sets the plates and gives them the dinner. Suddenly there's a knock at the door.
PEGGY Now who could that be?
HAROLD Don't know. Might as well get the door.
Peggy goes to the door and opens it.
PEGGY Oh Harold it's Adam.
Dickens looks at the man that had just appeared at the door. He gets up and walks to the door.
DICKENS So you must be Adam. I'm Dickens, of the police. I was at your house earlier today but you weren't there.
ADAM I must have been away at the time. I do apologize. May I come in? I'm here for the girl.
PEGGY The poor dear's not feeling too well. She's currently asleep. Come have a spot of dinner with us.
ADAM That's OK, but I ate already.
Adam walks into the house. He again seems to be sniffing the air.
ADAM Must be quite delicious though.
HAROLD I should hope so, I'm about to eat it.
They both chuckle a bit.
ADAM You said she wasn't feeling to well?
PEGGY The girl was drenched in sweat and she looked rather unhealthy.
ADAM Must be the weather getting to her.
Suddenly a growl is heard in the room where Tiffany is. Everyone looks to where the room.
DICKENS Well I'll be. Didn't know you had a dog.
Harold looks at Dickens for a moment, stands up and walks to where they all are standing. He's still looking at the room. All he can say is...
HAROLD We don't.
The growl is heard again.
PEGGY Harold I'm nervous. Tiffany's in that room.
HAROLD OK I'll go check it out. Give me your gun Dickens.
Dickens hands him the gun and Harold walks slowly to the door. He opens it and looks inside. He then slips inside slowly, but is then dragged into the room quickly. We hear the screams of Harold and blood pours through the bottom of the door.
PEGGY Oh Harold!
Adam sees this and backs Peggy away. Dickens takes her into his arms. Adam walks closer to the door. The sound of the growling is heard again. He opens the door wide. There is Tiffany, in werewolf form, with the dead body of Harold. She jumps over the body and runs into the main room of the house. Adam goes into the room and grabs the gun. He then aims at the werewolf and shoots but misses as Tiffany wolf is moving. The Tiffany wolf turns and looks at Adam, growling.
ADAM Get out of here!
Dickens takes Peggy and they leave the house.
EXT. HOUSE - NIGHT
Dickens and Peggy stand outside the door. Dickens tries to get her into his car.
INT. HOUSE - MAIN ROOM
Adam points the gun at Tiffany wolf as it growls at him. Adam is very careful to not make any sudden movements. Being a werewolf himself, he knows this type of behavior. He then suddenly aims at Tiffany wolf's head and shoots. Tiffany wolf is dead...or so he thinks. She suddenly springs to life and pounces Adam.
EXT. HOUSE - NIGHT
Peggy is finally in the car and Dickens gets inside himself. He then starts the car and drives off. Suddenly the werewolf breaks out of the door and runs off. Adam walks out of the house and looks at the car driving off. He then begins chasing the Tiffany wolf.
EXT. FOREST - NIGHT
Adam walks through the forest, making sure to check in all directions so that Tiffany wolf doesn't jump out at him. In the forest ahead of him, is Tiffany wolf. It is growling at him. He pauses.
ADAM I know you. Its my fault your like this. I have to end it.
He then aims the gun and fires off the remaining rounds of the gun into Tiffany wolf. The wolf seems to die. All that's left is the girl. Adam walks toward the girl and looks at her in pity and remorse. He then walks away.
Black screen.
ADAM (V.O.) I don't know why I didn't turn into a wolf and she did. What I do know si that there are no such things as werewolves. All there is...is a virus. An infection. There is no need for silver bullets. In the end she died like any other animal dies.
INT. ADAM'S HOUSE - YEARS LATER
Adam is sitting in a chair, with a gun
ADAM (V.O.) There's never been a cure. There's no such use in wolf's bane. We are who we are. We are what we are.
Adam puts the gun to his head and pulls the trigger.
CUT TO: BLACK
ADAM (V.O.) We are the damned.
