Been working on a movie script, it's my first one. One page at a time I am getting it done.
Here's today's entry:
Douglas and Grant are in a daze after the collision, when they finally come to they're faced with a shotgun and an ultimatum.
RICHARD
Turn around. Never come back.
DOUGLAS
Richard!
RICHARD
If you ever come near my daughter again I'll kill you. I swear to god. You're done around here. Leave.
DOUGLAS
Abigail needs help.
RICHARD
That's why I am here. She told me all about you; you piece of shit.
GRANT
Jesus Christ put your gun down.
RICHARD
You get him out of here. You get him away from my daughter or I'll shoot you both.
DOUGLAS
I am not leaving! Abigail NEEDS help. She's sick Richard.
GRANT
Douglas we have to go.
DOUGLAS
NO! Richard listen to me, Abigail did this. She did all of this. She needs a doctor.
Douglas
feels dizzy from the collision, things around him slow down and fall
silent. He doesn't hear Richard and Grant shouting at each other. His
eyes are moving towards the house, he see Abby looking out the window.
He snaps out of it.
DOUGLAS
Abby!
Douglas stumbles out of the car and attempt to walk to house.
RICHARD
GET BACK IN YOUR CAR!
Douglas
ignores him. Richard responds by belting Douglas across the face with
the butt of his gun. Douglas falls to the ground at Richard's feet.
RICHARD
What were you doing with my daughter? What kind of game were you playing?
Blood spews from Douglas's mouth, Grant runs over and tries to pick him up.
GRANT
ALRIGHT! We're gone. We're leaving.
Grant helps Douglas to his feet, Douglas locks eyes with Richard and his shotgun.
RICHARD
I knew you were no good.
Douglas
has had enough, he charges Richard and takes him off his feet. The two
wrestle around and the shotgun goes off, no one is hit but everyone is
startled. The fighting doesn't stop, the gun goes off again. This time
too close to Grant.
Grant
pulls Douglas off of Richard, Richard responds by pointing his gun at
Douglas's head. Everyone can see in Richards eyes that he's going to
pull the trigger. Douglas braces.
ABIGAIL
Stop! Dad, stop. Just let them go.
Abigail runs over crying, as much as she's afraid of Douglas she still loves him. He's madly in love with her still.
ABIGAIL
Grant, get him out of here.
DOUGLAS
NOOOO!!!
DOUGLAS
Abigail, I am not leaving you!
ABIGAIL
I am scared of you.
DOUGLAS
NOOOO!!!
Douglas sits bloodies on his knees, he's trying his hardest to hold everything together.
DOUGLAS
Abigail, I am not leaving you!
ABIGAIL
I am scared of you.
That hurt him more that the car crash or getting gun butted on the nose.
GRANT
C'mon man.
Grant picks his friend up and gets him into the passenger side of their car. As they peel out the back bumper falls out, broken glass sprinkles the road behind them as they drive away. Douglas' eyes are glued to Abigail as they pull away, she's crying in her father's arms. Douglas' eyes close.
