PART 3
(RANDY goes next to Tom)
RANDY
There… way over there…
TOM
That’s it!
RANDY
That’s creepy… what the heck!
TOM
Gone again. It’s fast.
MANDY
I’ll get it.
HEATHER
It got really cold all the sudden.
RANDY
Here’s my hoody if you want?
HEATHER
Thanks… can you feel it? I’m freezing.
RANDY
Yeah.
TOM
It’s behind us.
MANDY
It’s not even registering as a known PokyMonster… no stats… no history… this is awesome!
TOM
I don’t know… something doesn’t feel right. It’s over there now. I’ve never seen one this fast.
MANDY
It dodged my cage!
TOM
My cage can’t even get a fix on it.
HEATHER
Something’s wrong.
RANDY
Why is it so cold?
MANDY
I got you!
(Blackout. Screams. Lights again. MANDY is gone)
HEATHER
What happened?
RANDY
It was a blackout.
HEATHER
Even the moon?
TOM
Where’s Mandy? Mandy?!
RANDY
What’s going on here?
TOM
I don’t know.
HEATHER
We have to get out of here.
TOM
It’s back.
RANDY
Just turn off your phone Tom… let’s go.
TOM
It won’t turn off.
HEATHER
I can feel it getting closer.
RANDY
Come on, Tom.
TOM
I’m going to catch it.
RANDY
No… something’s not right.
HEATHER
Please… stay away!
(RANDY to HEATHER)
RANDY
Get behind me.
TOM
I’ll stun it…
(There is a strange sound from Tom’s phone))
RANDY
What was that?
HEATHER
It sounds like it screamed.
RANDY
Don’t make it mad, Tom.
TOM
Too late.
RANDY
We’re going… just throw away your phone… it’s not worth it.
(RANDY grabs TOM’s phone and throws it)
TOM
Don’t do that! You know what that cost me?
(TOM runs after phone)
RANDY
Tom! No!
