FADE IN
EXT. ALLEYWAY - JUST BEFORE SUN UP
Just before the sun begins to rise, a raven flutters down
onto the face of our hero, ANNIXIA GALANODEL, her red hair
in a mess falling across her face. Fading in and out of
consciousness. The raven pecks gently at her face, cawing.
ANNIXIA
(Groaning)
Wh... What?
The raven caws again, as if trying to get someones
attention. She couldnt see, but the voice she next hears,
is soft, somewhat childlike. TYCAN BLOODTHORN though, is no
child, he is a halfling.
TYCAN
Why do you always bring me the dead
and dying ones? Theyre no fun to
play with.
The raven caws, pecking gently at her face still.
TYCAN
(Sighing)
Fine, you play with that one. Im
going to go find a live one.
The raven caws again, seeming to get more agitated.
Indignant that TYCAN wanst listening. As if they had theit
own language.
TYCAN
(Exasparated)
What? What you stupid bird? You
really think she can be saved?
Oh... Fine, ok.
TYCAN picks ANNIXIA up, getting her arms wrapped around his
chest. Though, a good deal shorter than her, he managed to
drag her off.
EXT. TARVERN - JUST BEFORE SUN UP
LOTHAIRE looks around, stomach growling. He sees a tavern,
the smell of pungent food wafting out and into his nose. He
cringes a bit. Though he does move into the crowded tavern.

(CONTINUED)

LOTHAIRE
Well, looks like theres only one
place to sit...
LOTHAIRE moves over to the bar, an ominous looking man
seated on the barstool next to where he would be sitting. He
tentatively sits.
LOTHAIRE
Barkeep, can I get pint and
something to eat?
The BARKEEP moves over, obviously a bit flustered from the
large amount of people she was serving.
BARKEEP
Itll be about twenty to thirty
minutes on the food...
The BARKEEP reached over, grabbing a pint. Pouring it
perfectly. Handing it to LOTHAIRE.
LOTHAIRE
Thank you.
LOTHAIRE places a few coins on the table along with a tip
for the food and drink. It didnt take long for the crowded
bar to become tense. A fight soon broke out. Sending one man
flying into the laps of LOTHAIRE and the man beside him, the
ominous looking individual, AETHUN.
AETHUN
Great, spilled my pint...
BARKEEP
(Angry, speaking quickly)
Damn it! Can you guys get his drunk
ass out of here?!
AETHUN and LOTHAIRE gave a nod, managing to get the man
outside. LOTHAIRE not spilling his drink.
EXT. ROAD - SUNRISE
TYCAN has managed, barely to drag ANNIXIA to what appears to
be a clinic. People lined up outisde coughing, some holding
bloody rags. Dead bodies lined up on the opposite side of
the door. ANNIXIA doesnt really notice much of this, as
shes still in an out of consciousness.

3.

LOTHAIRE looks to AETHUN, rather interested by the childlike


figure dragging the petite redhead through the street. He
hands off his drink to AETHUN, who quickly downs it. Before
the pair follow the other two.
INT. CLINIC - SUNRISE
TYCAN lays ANNIXIA on a bedroll, and moved toward a tattered
cloth door. Moving through, he finds JASON THORN. Who, at
the time appears busy treating another patient.
JASON
(Somewhat visibly upset at the
interruption)
Cant you see that Im busy? What
do you want?
TYCAN
(Rolling his eyes)
Well, Ive got a case youll
probably be pretty intersted in...
JASON
(Visibly frustrated, but also
now interested)
Oh? Do tell?
TYCAN
(Smirks)
Well, Ive got a young female elf.
Near death. Two punctures on the
side of her neck..
JASON
That certainly makes things more
interesting.
Out in the main part of the clinic, AETHUN kneels down
beside ANNIXIA to inspect her. Seeing the sharp, pointed
ears, and her sharp features. As well as the punctures on
her neck.
AETHUN
(Standing up, backing away a
bit)
Hmm, this could be very
interesting.
JASON and TYCAN move back out into the main portion of the
clinic, seeing AETHUN standing over the girl.

AETHUN
Do you know what you have here?
JASON moved over to where she was laying, kneeling next to
her. Insepcting for other injuries, before taking in the
bite marks on her neck. Quickly standing up.
JASON
(Somewhat shocked)
We need to move her now, bring her
back into the back.
TYCAN
(Shaking his head, his eyes
wide)
No way, I carried her this far.
Shes heavy...
AETHUN
(Shaking his head, picks
ANNIXIA up)
Ill carry her.
The group makes their way into the office area, JASON clears
a table off.
JASON
Lay her down here.
AETHUN gave a nod and laid her down on the table. ANNIXIA
was still in and out of consciousness. JASON goes about his
examination. Moving to the shelf and pulling out a vial of
herbs.
JASON
This should work...
JASON applies the herbs to ANNIXIAs neck, and this makes
ANNIXIA wake up violently. Flialing her arms, and screaming
in pain.
JASON
Damn... Wrong herb... Grab her arms
and legs, hold her down.
As AETHUN, TYCAN, and LOTHAIRE attempted to hold her down
ANNIXIA managed to slap each of them away. AETHUN removes a
glove from his hand, and reached out and touched ANNIXIA.
She instantly relaxed, her head falling back. The energy
drained from her body.

(CONTINUED)

JASON
Tycan, damn it. Tie her down! Now
that shes relaxed.
TYCAN
(Grinning ear to ear)
With pleasure.
TYCAN began wrapping her with the rope, tying her down to
the cot. So that JASON could continue to treat her.
