CUT TO:
2ㅤINT. KING'S CROSS STATION - SIOBHAN'S VISION - EVENING
The same woman bumped into a man wearing a black hoodie, then suddenly, she felt a sharp knife going through her stomach. Blood drips down to the floor. Mouth agape. Eyes looking at the blood on her hands. She looked up to see the man who just killed her but suddenly...he disappeared.
CUT TO:
3ㅤINT. KING'S CROSS STATION, LONDON - MORNING
The unknown woman looked at her furiously with her eyebrows furrowed. And shouted---
UNKNOWN WOMAN
Watch where you're going!Siobhan was left dumbfounded standing in the middle of the bustling crowd, not moving, not speaking. She realized that she just saw the future of that woman and she didn't even have the time to tell her.
FADE OUT.
