(Flashback)
(This scene is shown in flashes/pulses) (Parts in slow motion)
(Shows Ashton running, looking over his shoulder) (Shows walkers)
(Shows Harry (younger brother) being cornered by a walker, terrified and screaming for help) (Shows Lauren crying, hiding behind her door)
(Shows Anna (Ashton's mom) calling out for Ashton)
(Present day)
(It's dark out)
(Shows Ashton, unable to sleep, sitting on the floor, in a darkened room, back against against a wall)
(Ashton has on a bandanna and is wearing a holey, baggy, grey long sleeved shirt, and black skinny jeans) (He's on a blanket with pillows) (There's only a small lantern light, keeping the area lit) (Lauren, Ashton's younger sister's asleep beside him) (She's wearing a baggy sports shirt, that belonged to Ashton at one point and blue jeans)
(Ashton glances over at her, sound asleep, cuddled up against a pillow) (He smiles solemnly, then glances around the room) (Michael, a friend of his, muffles a few quiet sounds as he continues sleeping) (Michael's wearing a black Sex Pistols tank and black skinny jeans) (He's a few feet away from Ashton, on a separate blanket in the other corner of the room)
(There's a rustling sound coming from outside the boarded up window, across the room) (Ashton perks up and listens closely) (The sound only lasts a couple seconds, then he hears shuffling footsteps leaving the window area) (He relaxes and glances at his sister again, touching the top of her hair gently)
(Michael slowly wakes up and notices Ashton's still awake) (He looks over at him, leaning on his side now)
Michael- (Whispers) Have you even slept yet, mate? (Ashton looks over at him and shakes his head)
Ashton- Nah. Not yet. (Pauses) Can't risk it.
Michael- Here, you sleep. I'll keep watch for a bit.
Ashton- No. It's cool, dude. I'm fine.
Michael- You're gonna need to sleep, if we're going out tomorrow. Seriously, go to sleep. I'm good for a few hours at least. (Michael sits up)
(Ashton sighs)
Ashton- Alright. Thanks. (Mike nods) (Ashton lays down slowly, not wanting to wake Lauren) (Michael sits up and glances around the room)
(Ashton's asleep now, after a few minutes have gone by)
(After a few minutes of silence, there's a loud crash outside the house) (Lauren jolts awake, as does Ashton) (Michael jumps)
Michael- Shit.
(Lauren looks terrified) (Ashton stands)
Lauren- Ash-
Ashton- Shh. It's okay. (Michael slowly stands up) Stay quiet ok? (He says gently) (Lauren nods, scared) (Michael looks at Ashton, then the front door)
Michael- You think they ran into a planting pot or something?
(Ashton slowly makes his way towards the window) (He peeks through a small opening in the curtain and doesn't see anything outside)
Ashton- I don't see anything.... (He continues looking through the window) (Michael quickly but quietly goes to turn off/down the lamp light in case there was something out there) (Michael looks through a peephole on the door and sees nothing) (He cautiously walks back over)
