Charlie:" hey, shut up! " ( charlie elbows the mexican. He looks at charlie angrily)
Nate:" why?"
Charlie:" just askin' but it's no biggie, we have plenty of supplies. But maybe we make a deal later on? Our group goes through it fast."
Nate:" wait, you got a bigger group? Is it safe?"
Charlie:" no, it's just us. We're moving our location back to an abandoned farm. Why? Do you have a bigger group? "
Nate:" no. It's just me, my friend and our families. "
Charlie:" is it safe here? "
Nate:" yeah. "
Charlie:" thats good.. Maybe some time we could..( robert:" no!")
Charlie:" what?"
Robert:" you can't live here and you can't have half our supplies. There are enough we have to care for already. "
Charlie:"i wasn't.. Ugh.. I thought you said your group was small nate.."
Nate:" it is."
Tom:" i suggest you get moving kid, we don't want a problem."
Charlie:" yeah, no problems."
( charlie gives nate a disturbing look and then winks. Then they load back up and drive off. )
Robert:" was that charlie?"
Nate:" yeah.."
Tom:" we need to keep an extra eye out. Two gaurds from now on. On each side!"
Robert:" i agree, let's go talk about it to everyone."
( robert and tom leave and it's just nate and ari.)
Ari:" what were you going to say?"
Nate:" what...? Oh.. I can't remember.."
Ari:" ah... Okay..."
Nate:" go ahead and go back to the picnic, i got this.."
Ari:" okay..."
( ari leaves nate alone and he goes back to kicking the rock. )
Camera zooms out from charlies eye and we see he's in the car with the unknown adult.
Adult:" sooo... Are we gonna try anything?"
Charlie:" You know the rules. Not unless they start anything."
Adult:" damn..."
Mexican:" hey! Why didn't you let me kill those fuckers?"
Charlie:" 1. They're old friends.. 2. You know the rules too, asshole..."
Josh stancik:" Yeah.. I can't believe nate survived though.."
Charlie:" what did you expect? He was always prepared for this remember?"
Josh stancik:" yeah, that's true. Remember he wanted to do a zombie movie that one time?"
Charlie:" yeah, but he didn't have any fake guns, blood, or makeup to do it with. Only nerf guns.."
Josh stancik:" hahaha, and spray paint!"
Charlie:" yeah, hahahha."
Josh stancik:" man, we should have him join us."
Charlie:" yeah but you know how it is.. We have enough as is..."
Josh stancik:" yeah but still.. It'd be nice to have him around to connect with the way things used to be. I miss it man.."
Charlie:" me too.... Me too."
[Screen goes dark and the camera tilts down to show a camp sight with many tents and people walking around. ]
Charli:" Hey Sabs! You and (unknown mexican) are on gaurd at the southern entrance. "
Sabs:" got it sir.."
Charlie:" dammit sabs... This isn't goddamn call of duty. It's not the military. I'm not hitler.. My names charlie.."
Sabs:" sorry sir.. I..uh..mean..uh..charlie.."
Charlie:" there you go. Now go get out there!"
Sabs:" okay.."
[sabs and unknown mexican run off into darkness. An unknown blonde girl comes up and sits next to charlie.]
Blonde girl:" hey, i heard you found another group today.. Did you?"
Charlie:" yes.. And no, we didn't hurt them."
Blonde girl:" why? We need the supplies badly."
Charlie:" i know, i know... It's just. One of them, he's an old friend."
Blonde girl:" so? Just take him in and take their stuff.."
Charlie:" no, i can't do that."
Blonde girl:" well why not?!"
Charlie:" because.. He's my friend. And you just don't betray friends like that!"
Blonde girl:" oh so is that why adrian is dead?"
Charlie:" that was different.."
Blonde girl:" how? He was your friend...."
Charlie:" no... "
Blonde girl:" you betrayed him."
Charlie:" listen... You're going down a dark road.."
Blonde girl:" and now..... He's dead.."
Charlie:" it was different"( he looks at her with an evil in his eyes..)
Blonde girl: ( tearing up ) he's dead.. And you killed him... "
Charlie:" stop talking...."
Blonde girl:" No, no i won't stop.. Yoh killed him.. He said he loved me.. He said it dammit! ( crying hard now.) "
[Charlie sticks her in the leg with a needle. She screams but passes out. Charlie picks her up and carries her to her tent. Then he walks back to the fire and douses it with water. ]
We then see charlie go to his tent and lie down. He falls asleep and we see a flashback. We hear a door slam and feet running down some steps. We see Adrian come down the stairs and run into a room. He closes the door behind him. The camera shows him pull holding a sandwich and he pulls a bag of chips and some juice packs out of his pants and lay them out. He takes a mouthfull of the sandwich and opens the chips and shoves alot in his mouth dropping some as he chews. He then pops open a juice pack and chugs it down spilling all over himself. We here a noise and he stops dead in his tracks. ]
Charlie:" ADRIAN!?"
Sabs:" ACOSTA WHERE ARE YOU?!"
Josh stancik:" Adrian someone took some food!"
Charlie:" adrian we need your help!"
Adrian:" shit..."
[ adrian rips up the sandwich and shoves it in his mouth. Then he takes the chips and eats as much as he can before flushing the rest down the toilet. He takes the final juice pouch and puts it in his pants. Then he wipes his mouth, gurggles some mouthwash and washes his hands. Then he walks out the bathroom.]
Josh stancik:" there you are! Guys i got him!"
Adrian:" what's going on?"
Josh stancik:" someone stole some food."
Adrian:" uhggg.. Did you check under sabs' bed?"
Charlie:" actually yes.. Nothing. But adrian now it's your turn."
Adrian:" wait what?!"
[ Adrian gets hit over the head with a baseball bat. Charlie suddenly wakes up. We see him walking in the daylight. ]
Sabs:" hey charlie."
Charlie:" hey, how was patrol?"
Sabs:" fine, killed three roamers. But i'm mighty tired. Think i'm honna hit the hay."
Charlie:" you do that.."
[ he walks to the tent where he set the blonde girl. He walks in and she's still asleep. He walks out and heads towards the armory. He picks up a vest, shotgun, two pistols, and a knife. He walks past stancik. ]
Charlie:" i'm going out. Keep everything in check. "
Stancik:" will do. "
[ charlie goes out into the woods. Josh then turns around and heads towards the camp table and sits down for breakfast. ]
