Blink (Title in Progress) by Jacob Britten, Joe Kalos
Scene 1: EXT: Location - Dump
In a seemingly empty dump on a cloudy day, a young man (mid twenties) carrying a satchel, is sprinting in the distance across an open area. Three other guys (in body armor with weapons) are chasing him, but stop to see him running further away. They decide to split up and go in different directions to out maneuver him. The young man (The Inventor) stops in a place surrounded by mountains of junk and trash and enters an abandoned building nearby. Scene 2: Int: Location - Abandoned Mill, Basement He stops in the middle of a giant room inside as he catches his breath, believed he outran them. He looks in his bag to reveal a device, a thermos with a crystal inside. He sighs with relief that it wasnt damaged. He changes it with another crystal inside.
Goon Radio Search the area
The Inventor turns around to see one of the goons enter the building and looking around. He puts the device away and hides near some debris. The goon has a shotgun as a weapon and looks around the nearby rocks, rubble, and walls in the dark building getting closer to the Inventors position. who then decides that he should fight back so they wont follow him anymore. He grabs the device from his bag, but he notices that the light from the crystal is red, meaning that its low on power (low beeping tone). Note: The device allows him to teleport, but thanks to the low power, he cant. He then gets frustrated, but keeps his cool and decides to unlock the bottom of the device revealing metal prongs.
The nearby goon is still looking around. As he gets closer to the darker part of the room, he slows down, and becomes more cautious. He then stops in the middle of the room, and looks around. The Inventor then sneaks up behind him and lunges the prongs of the device into the goons neck, shocking him. He then falls to the ground.
The Inventor grabs the shotgun and runs out darkness to see another goon in front of him already with an assault rifle pointed at him. Goon 2 Freeze
The Inventor stops, surprised.
Goon 2 Drop it kid
The Inventor, frustrated from the twist of events, drops the shotgun and but still holds on the to the orb.
Goon 2 Man.. the boss has been looking for that shit for a looong time. And to think a little shitstain like you could have made such a weapon.
The Inventor It wasnt supposed to be a weapon fuckhead, it was meant for the good of our species until you assholes made it into what it is now.
Goon 2 You should thank us then bitch, you would be glad to know your services are duly noted.
He cocks his rifle ready to fire
Goon 2 But its time you clocked out for good motherfucker.
The Inventor Maybe I should thank you. It truly has become more than I could ever imagine.
The Inventor holds the device out, with a determined face.
The Inventor So let me show what it can really do.
The Inventor then quickly activates the device, and fires a bolt shot. A display of lightning appears and causes the goons arm to blow off, leaving an eruption of blood, and him falling to the ground. The Inventor, sighing with relief, puts the device in his bag. But hears radio chatter from the dead goon.
Underboss So, is that how you really feel.
The Inventor looks surprised, and looks frightened, but gains a more serious look, and whips out the device. The underboss, looking around near the room where the previous confrontation took place.
Underboss This bitch thinks he can steal the bosses property and use for his own use Motherfucker, Ill rip his head off. Where is he, damn its hot in here.
As the underboss is looking around, the Inventor is around the corner, looking at his clumsiness. the Inventor takes a smoke bomb out his bag, and throws it at the ground near the underboss.
Underboss What the fuck ooh, you trying to sike me out, well it ain't going to work.
The smoke begins to engulf the underbosses vision, making it more difficult for him to see the inventor went. Meanwhile the inventor is slowing sneaking up on him.
Underboss You think you can sneak up on me, Im second in line bitch, you cant kill me.
The Inventor Thats where youre wrong.
As soon as those words were spoken, a bolt charge launches at the goons head, and electrifies him, until he drops to the ground. The inventor walks through the smoke that cleared, picks up the assault rifle and cocks it. Screen Black A phone starts ringing, until its answered.
The Boss What is it?

Inside a normal office building, a business man in his late twenties in formal attire, is having a conversation on a phone.

The boss pauses and grunts, and snickers.
The Boss. Ill handle it.
He then smiles, and hangs up the phone.
