Short Story: Game Script

Start from the beginning
                                    

EXT. "WALKING PATH" - FOGGY AFTERNOON

SAMAJ (gulp): I can't see anything. Why did the Fog have to roll in now! This path is now scarier than before, I see why my mom told me not to never take this path home. (doublethink) I am a Man, I ain't scared!

A SCARY VOICE begins whispering.

GAME TITLE: Don't Look Back!

SCARY VOICE (V.O.): (whisper) Don't look back.

SAMAJ: What was that sound?!

SCARY VOICE (V.O.): (whisper) Don't look back.

SAMAJ (wheezing):  Who said that?

SCARY VOICE (V.O.): (whisper) Don't...Look...Back...

Checkpoint #1

SAMAJ (debating): Should I look back?

He slowly starts to turn around.

He turns completely around.

_________________________________________________________

When you turn around completely:

SCARY VOICE (V.O.): I told you not to turn around, and you did not listen. (evil laugh) You know what happens to young adults who don't listen right?

SAMAJ (gulp): Uh...

Scary Voice interrupts.

SCARY VOICE (V.O.): WE... (JUMP SCARE) SCARE THEM!

SAMAJ: Ahhhhhhhh!

Automatically restart, but proceeds forward.

_________________________________________________________

He quickly turns forward.

SAMAJ: Nope, I am not looking back. I am not that stupid. You might think that, but that's not me!

SCARY VOICE (V.O.): You sure about that?!

He slowly moves backwards.

SAMAJ: What the heck. I can't control my body.

Inhale

Exhale

SCARY VOICE (V.O.): You are weak, just like the rest, and you are right where I want you. You are in my playground.

SAMAJ (angry): I am not weak! I will not turn around. You can't make me!

He starts running forward.

SCARY VOICE (V.O.): Ahhh! I will get you, don't... you... worry!

Samaj looks ahead and notices an Inflatable NightClub blocking the path.

SAMAJ (comes to a stop): Uh, what the heck? An Inflatable NightClub over here? I have to be dreaming! Am I? Why would someone just have this on the path like this.

He enters the Inflatable Night Club.

INT. INFLATABLE NIGHTCLUB - FOGGY AFTERNOON

Inside there is a stage with pyro flickering.

Samaj walks to the middle, then comes to a stop & looks at the stage in front of him.

SAMAJ (scratching head): Uh, what the heck? I can't move past & I can't look back? What am I to do?

Smoke activates on the stage, the lights shut off, then turn back on. Five Men appear on stage standing with their backs towards Samaj.

He rubs his eyes.
