Subject: Can I become a writer on this project?

Hi ya'll. I was just wondering if it would be possible to become a writer on this project. I love the idea of this and have seen it mentioned at the BCAS. Anyway i wrote my own fanfic and it was very we'll recieved. So i thought i'd just post it and try my luck. Thank you to anyone who reads it. It's an Angel Season 4 opener script. enjoy.



ANGLE ON

A woman, mid 20's. She is running down a street and she looks scared.

WOMAN
Help me, help me please.

We see a figure is chasing her. We don't see who it is.

WOMAN
He's going to kill me.

The woman turns the street.

GUNN(OS)
You damn right I'm going to kill you.

The woman is on the ground crawling away.

WOMAN
Please, oh god somebody help me.

GUNN
No use screaming. Nobody can hear you out
here.

WOMAN
Alright then.

WE see the woman's face VAMPS.

WOMAN
If your not going to treat me like a lady,
then treat me like a bitch.

GUNN and the woman stand up, squaring face to face. The Vamp strikes going at Gunn. Gunn blocks, punching her. The Vamp spins and kicks him. Gunn is hurt by this, but
continues taking a swing and missing the Vamp, kicks him in the stomach and he fall to the ground.

FRED(OS)
Jesus, I'll do it.

Fred comes form behind and stakes the Vamp easily. Gunn looks up.

GUNN
That's my girl. Thanks for the assist.

FRED
No problem. It's kinda fun getting to be all
superhero-y.

GUNN
Yeah it is, as long as your careful.

FRED
You know I am.

Gunn is now on his feet and he and Fred are walking away.

GUNN
So did you pack your stuff?

FRED
(sadly)
Yeah.

GUNN
What's wrong baby? I thought you'd be excited.

FRED
I am, I am, It's just...

GUNN
Saying goodbye to the hotel.

FRED
I know it's stupid. It's not like I'm saying goodbye
to a home. But I am. I mean out of all the places
I lived in the past Five years that was my favourite
one.

Gunn smiles at this.

FRED
It's just, what are we gonna do when Angel and Connor
comes back? Huh?

GUNN
If.

This stops Fred in her tracks.

GUNN
If they come back Fred.

Beat.

FRED
When they come back! They;ll be mad that
we sold their home and their place of
buisness.

GUNN
We'll it's not like we had much of a choice.
People ain't calling Fred.

FRED
I know, I mean God is it selfish to want
a horrible demon to arise and threatening
everyone I love? Is that just too
much to ask?
What about the mission?

GUNN
What do you think we've been doing Fred?

FRED
Honestly. I think we've been kidding ourselves.
We can't do this alone Charles. Instead of going
out every night and hunting demons, we should be
trying to find Angel and Cordy and Connor.

GUNN
(loudly)
And what if they can't be found!

The Tone and Loudness of Gunn's voice scares Fred.

GUNN
What if their.....
(struggling to say it)
What if their...

Fred puts her hand on Gunns cheek and he lowers his head.

FRED
Their not. They can't be.

Fred and Gunn just look at each other sadly.

CREDIT'S ROLL

VOICE (OS)
Close your eyes, relax. Don't think about the moment. Feel it.
You are calm, you are poised, you are

An axe flies across the screen. It misses a dummie in the middle of the room.
Cordekia has thrown it with her hand.

SKIP
A suck shot.

CORDY
Gee, Skip. I'm so sorry that my High School ciriculum didn;t include
axe throwing 101.

SKIP
(not realising it's a joke)
Your forgiven. Now, Relax, deep breath. Just be calm, and at one with nature
and impale the guy already.

CORDY
Fine.

Cordelia picks the axe up using telekinesis and throws it at the dummy. It hits him in the chest.

SKIP
That's cheating.

CORDELIA
Ya think.

SKIP
Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't you volunteer for this. No one forced you.

CORDELIA
I Know.

SKIP
So why are you so angry.

CORDELIA
I'm not angry.
(off Skips look)
I'm not un-angry, Ok, you win. It's, It's I miss my friends. I miss Angel.
I never even got to tell him I

Cordelia stops herself, alittle in pain.

SKIP
I know. You chose the right choice Cordelia. But that doesn't make
the decision any easier, does it?

CORDELIA
I just wish I could Know they were all safe. That they're all Ok.

SKIP
They are. I promise you, they are.

CUT TO:

EXT. BOTTOM OF OCEAN

Angel remains in his box. His eyes are open, but he doesn't blink. He just stare
blankly at what's in front of him.

CUT TO:

INT. WOLFRAM AND HART

LINWOOD
Lilah, any news?

LILAH
none sir. I promise you I will report to you first thing.

LINWOOD
You better. Three months Lilah. Three months and we still haven't found him.

LILAH
Maybe because there;s nothing to be found.

LINWOOD
That's an interesting choice of words Lilah. You do know Wolfram and Harts policy
on killing Angel. If i find out you had anything to do with it....

LILAH
Sir please, that;s not what I meant.

LINWOOD
Oh?

LILAH
What I meant was, Angel's gone, his son's gone. There could be a chance the kid...

LINWOOD
Dusted him.

LILAH
Then took off.

LINWOOD
He can't be dead, the Senior Partners will...

LILAH
We'll find him if he can be found Sir.

LINWOOD
The other thing I wanted to talk to you about. Price, How;s that going?

LILAH
We'll sir, I'll be doing some recon tonight and then I'll get back to you.

CUT TO:

INT. WESLEY'S BEDROOM-NIGHT

Wesley and Lilah lie under the bed covers, they've just 'done it'.

LILAH
Oh yeah, my job rocks.

WESLEY
What?

LILAH
Nothing. We'll Price, you certainly know how to get the job done. With overtime.

WESLEY
Do you have to talk?

LILAH
Oh, where's the love?

Wesley just gives her a look.

LILAH
So Wes, the dole line still working for you or are you ready to come work for us?

WESLEY
Why should I?

LILAH
Full medical, dental, 401(k) package.

WESLEY
I'm not....

LILAH
What? Your not like me? You couldn't do the things I do, without having a moral crisis.
Listen up Wes old boy. Your not like me, you are me.

WESLEY
No I'm not. I could never be like you.

LILAH
You were prepared to steal Angel's child and take it away forever. To rob him of the
only child he ever had.

WESLEY
I did that trying to do good.

LILAH
Let me tell you the truth of the world. Everyone from the child who steals a penny sweet to
Stallin started off with Good Intentions. But something happens along the way, they change,
they grow, they turn into right bastards.

Wesley doesn't answer. He just stares at the wall.

CUT TO:

INT. ANGEL INVESTIGATION HOTEL.

Fred and Gunn enter. Fred is upbeat and rushes to the phone, Gunn isn't so happy. We see Fred
has run over to the answering machine. She presses it. The Computer voice clicks on.

COMPUTER VOICE
You have No New messages.

The smile on Fred's face drops as Gunn looks on sympathetically.

CUT TO:

EXT. GRAVEYARD-NIGHT

The Night is quiet, there doesn't seen to be anyone around until a VAMPIRE is thrown on screen.
The Vampire looks scared. We see why. Behind him is CONNOR

VAMPIRE
Please, don't.

Connor stare at him in disgust. He runs over to the Vamp, grabs the Vampires arm, and pulls it,
a 'crack' is heard.

JUSTINE
Come on Stephen Just kill him already.

Connor grabs the Vamp and throw him on the ground. He runs at the Vamp then full force, jams
the stake right through the Vampires Heart. The Vampire turns to dust.

JUSTINE
Now, I've got nothing against Human, Vampire violence, But was that completly neccesary?

CONNOR
What? I killed a Vampire. I move on.

JUSTINE
No that wasn't killing a Vampire. That was, That was. I don't what that was.

CONNOR
That is what my father taught me. Their animals Justine. They don't have feelings.

CUT TO:


EXT. BOTTOM OF OCEAN

Angel remains. He stares at the world around. his face is erily still.


INT. ANGEL INVESTIGATION HOTEL

The phone rings. Fred rushes over to answer it.

FRED
Angel Investigations, We help the Helpless. How can we help you?
(listening to the other end)
Yes, we did get the notice and we are going to pay it's just.....
(listening)
I get that. I do. We just have a cash flow problem right now. But
we should have the money as soon as we sell some things.
Okay, a week. Thank you. That's most kind.

Fred hangs up. Gunns been listening.

FRED

GUNN
Don't tell me. Don't tell me. The gas

Fred nods 'no'

GUNN
Water?

Fred again nods 'no'

GUNN
Phone?

Fred laughs slightly a this.

FRED
It was the electricity.

GUNN
Ah the electricity.

FRED
They were angry we didn't respond to their last notice.

GUNN
So? We didn't respond to the first Three.

FRED
Gunn.

GUNN
Look It;s okay.

FRED
How is it Okay?

GUNN
As soon as we sell the hotel, all the bills will be paid.

FRED
That's suppost to make me feel better.

GUNN
Look, I know you don't like this, but we have no choice. Besides, what
are we suppost to do with this huge hotel, huh?

FRED
It;s not just a huge hotel. It's home.

Fred and Gunn look around, depressed.

CUT TO:

EXT. DUMES POINT/BEACH

CONNOR stand on the beach. He's looking around alittle scared. He doesn't
know why he's there.

The sound of the Sea suddenly becomes very loud. Connor turns around to find
the sea is carrying something. It's

THE BOX

Connor watches it wash up on the shore. He's cautious. He walks over slowly
and looks through the slips. He doesn't see anything. He rips the lid off
with Great intensity.

He looks down to see THE BOX IS EMPTY.

A hand grabs him from behind. It;s Angel, and he has his Vamp face on.

ANGEL
You were expecting someone?

Angel buries his teeth in Connors neck and starts to drink. Connor feebliy
fights when

INT. CONNOR'S BEDROOM-NIGHT

Connor wakes up. He doesn;t scream, but he is afraid, and very freaked out.

CUT TO:

INT. HIGHER REALMS

Cordelia is currently glowing, high in the air. Her eyes are closed and the light
is extremely bright. It looks like something important.

SKIP
Okay Time to wake up.

Cordelia's eyes shoot open in shock. She loses her concentration and falls to the
ground.

CORDELIA
Jes' Skip. I really like this ass. I'd hate to break it and have to buy another.

SKIP
It's time to train.

CORDELIA
It's always time to train. When is it time to sleep in?

SKIP
You ready?

Cordelia grunts then follows SKIP into another room.

SKIP
Okay, you awake?

CORDELIA
(yawning)
I'm good.

Skip jumps at her, trying to attack her. Cordelia kicks him, punches him, then
grabs his arm and spins him in the air causing him to fall.

Skip gets back up and grabs a sword. For a minute, his look makes it suggest this
is no longer training.

Skip throws the sword to Cordelia then grabs another one for himself. They go at it.
The swords clink off each other and they are going so fast it's hard to desinguishe
one sword from the other.

Cordelia kicks Skip in the shin, he kneels down and Cordy spins then holds the sword
to his throat.

CORDELIA
A little trick Angel taught me.

SKIP
(rubbing his leg)
Yeah, we'll good trick.

CUT TO:

INT. WOLFRAM AND HART BOARDROOM

A meeting is currently taking place. We see LINWOOD, GAVIN, LILAH and WESLEY. They
are all sitting around the table except Linwood, who is standing up in mid-speech.

LINWOOD
...and let me say that the Senior Partners are very please with the addition
of Mr Wyndom Price. I think Ms. Morgan there better watch her back with
this one.

GAVIN
(lowly)
Her back isn't what she should be worrying about.

Lilah glares at him. She caught that.

LINWOOD
We'll I think that's us for the day Ladies and Gentleman.

Everyone starts to dispatch. Lilah sets her sight on Wesley.

LILAH
Hey Wes, Where do you think your going?

WESLEY
Lunch.

LILAH
I'll join you.

WESLEY
You could do that but I have this desire to keep my lunch down.

LILAH
(like a cat)
meoww. Down boy. You see, My office is all empty and i brought lunch with me.

Lilah leaves Wesley with that thought. She walks and enters her office. Wesley starts
to walk for the canteen. He's at a crossroad. He can either go to the canteen or
go to Lilah's office.

He walks over, enters and closes the door of Lilah's office.

CUT TO:

EXT. ABANDONED BUILDING-NIGHT

Justine and Connor look up at the sight in front of them.

CONNOR
You sure?

JUSTINE
Definetily. Nest. You up for it?

CONNOR
You know I am.

JUSTINE
Let's go.

They both make their way. Justine kicks down the door.

INT. ABANDONED BUILDING.

Justine and Connor cautiously start to walk in.

JUSTINE
Stephen, be careful, with these old buildings, it's not very stable.

They continue to walk.

CONNOR
Where do you suppose there hiding?

A noise is heard upstairs.

JUSTINE
Bathroom.

Connor and Justine make their way to the old decayed staircase. They start making
their way up. Connor holds on to the staircase. It falls from under him. Justine
grabs him to make sure he doesn't fall.

JUSTINE
What did I tell you? Well done Stephen. Now
they know were here.

CONNOR
Sorry.

JUSTINE
It's fine, we just have to do this quick and fast
so they don't have time to escape. Come on.

Justine and Connor make their way up the stairs and into

INT. BATHROOM

They look around. The bathtub is filled with water and is still filling. It is near the top.
They look at the figure clutching to the toilet. It's a Vampire, but he looks like he's
decaying. All his bones can be seen. It's an awful sight.

JUSTINE
Okay, kill him.

CONNOR
What?

JUSTINE
Kill him.

CONNOR
But he can barely stand. He's not really a threat.

JUSTINE
When are you going to get this Stephen. Killing Vampires isn't
about Protecting. It's about Vengance. It's about releasing the
souls of all the people he killed. He didn't show pity on them,
so why should we show pity on him.

Just as Justine finishes Connor has already made his way over and plunges the stake into the Vampire.
The Vampire screams then turns to dust.

JUSTINE
That's my boy.

The water from the bathtub starts to overflow. Connor watches the water pass his feet.

CUT TO:

INT. DUME'S POINT-BEACH

The water that had past Connors feet is now water coming from the Sea. Connor looks up, he's
back again. He looks at the box lying on the beach. He know not to go near it.

ANGEL(OS)
What's the matter son?

Connor spins around to find Angel a few feet away walking towards him.

ANGEL
You look like you've seen a ghost.

CONNOR
(a little scared)
You. You stay away from me.

ANGEL
Oh I can't do that, you see, I'm always with you. Everywhere
you go I'll always be there.
(whispers into Connors ear)
I'm always right behind you.

Connor spins around to find NOTHING THERE.

ANGEL(OS)
(from behind)
Truth is...

Connor spins around again and finds Angel a few feet away again.

ANGEL
I'll always be there. You see, by killing me, you've kept me alive
forever. I'll be with you until the day you die and I drag you down
to hell with me.

Connor has a pale look on his face

ANGEL
Bye son.

Connor looks up.

ANGEL
(waving bye)
Gotta go.

Connor continues watching until Angel disappears and he

INT. ABANDONED BUILDING BATHROOM

Connor wakes up from the trance he was in. He looks around and sees the muddy water
at his feet.

JUSTINE
Are you sure your okay?

CONNOR
What?

JUSTINE
You are so weird. Let's go.

Justine leaves. Connor is about to go when he looks in the tub and sees

ANGEL waving bye bye to him from under the water.

CONNOR
(screaming)
Leave me alone! Your not real!!!

Connor runs from the bathroom. THE CAMERA FOCUSES on the BATHTUB to show there is
NOTHING THERE.

CUT TO:

INT. ANGEL INVESTIGATIONS/LOBBY

GUNN stands waiting for Fred. She holds a box in her hand.

GUNN
So is that the last one?

FRED
(sadly)
Yeah. The Last one.

GUNN
So we're agreed. After Tommorow?

FRED
After Tommorow, we officially put the hotel on the market.

GUNN
Did you call Lorne?

FRED
Yeah.

GUNN
And?

FRED
And he's naturally upset and start crying. We smeared his eyeliner.

GUNN

You think she;s ready.

HIGHER POWER
She is. The destroyer is planning on returning to LA.
This is our only chance to stop him. He is planning
on killing Angel. If he gets to that box before we do,
he will do just so, and all we have worked for will
be destroyed. She is the only one who can stop him
now.

SKIP enter Cordy's room

CORDELIA
Hey Skip, how;s my favourite demon guide?

SKIP
Very afraid.

CORDELIA
