ZANDOR FREAKS OUT
 
PAGE 1 - FLASHBACK 
Inside a dark mahogany study filled with leather bound books. The room is filled with candles that arealmost completely burned out, long tails of melted wax cling to the candelabras.close up/ up shot of Zandor, a clean shaven man in his 40’s with peppered hair and a muted 60’s stylemod suit. He is on the floor crouching over a ouija plancheet on top of dozens of scrolls, his pinkyfingers holding the sides. Papers, scrolls, stacks of books cover the entire floor. In the backgroundKleos is walking into the room with a serving tray and bowl of soup. She looks like Dianna Rigg witha streak in her bangs and is wearing a 60’s style dress with earth tones.Kleos, “Zandor, why don’t you take a break.”Zandor is mumbling to himself, “Drave? Drath?…death father…dark invader…”Kleos, “I’ve made you some soup, you should eat it while it is still hot.”Zandor, “There is no time, I must prepare…I have to be prepared. Pre…paired…paired before hand…hand, hand paired with what?”Kleos, “You have been going at this non-stop for days. You need your stren-”Zandor turns around with anger, “I DON’T WANT ANY #$%ING SOUP!!!”The tray flies out of Kleos’ hands and hits the bookcase beside her.

Kleos is upset and holding her hands over her mouth, “I’m worried about you.”Zandor, “Witchcraft…which craft? Wicked class…wiccan crass…”Kleos, “You were gone for almost a year…and then you came back and we haven’t really… talked.”Zandor is scowling, gritting his teeth and looking at his hand, “No time, the evil is coming to thisworld…a lunatic reaper, the harvest moon. It is bigger than our personal affairs.”Kleos, “We are in no condition to fight anything…you are a mess, look at yourself!”Zandor’s whole body is tense, “This is what it takes, sacrifice, total devotion. Anything else is going tosee us all dead,”He starts grabbing things, “and all this, this, this chair and this spoon all of that is gone.”They sit in silence.
PAGE 3 – MISSION BREIFING
The country is Zyga, a thriving delta city
 
surrounded by vast swampland. The city isAuthorian-Egypt styled by the minimalism andrich colors of 60’s pop. A paranormal super group called the Aegys is hold up in a dark remote temple. The Aegys is seated around around table, having a dinner meeting inZandor’s temple. Kleos addresses the Aegyswhile Zandor sits quietly.Kleos, “In the mystic realm many of us will find our powers magnified. Spartak and L’shrq are trainedand experienced soldiers, but will not find advantage in this plane, if anything you will be disorientedand will have to rely on a transference from Zandor’s aura to maintain your equilibrium.”(Zandor is putting grapes in a straight line, Spartak is looking at him)Sekhmet, “None of us is powerful enough to defeat Xian. Our strength is in numbers. And the time totrain to maximize a teamwork strategy.”Spartak, “We will be paired up in a three stage rotation. Two will attack while two defend and tworest. The offense will have singular concentration on attack and like wise the defense. When it isyour turn to rest you will use that time to observe Xian’s process and look for a pattern or better yet aweakness. (Zandor is lining up pistachios in a right angle to the grapes)Also it will be an opportunity for Zandor to heal and advise those of us that are not killed.We will take three weeks to train. Kleos and Sekhmet will spend mornings educating you in the theoryof spiritual warfare. Afternoons will be spent in drills and sparing. (Zandor is making his silverware perfectly parallel, Sekhmet and Uraeus are looking at each other)Take the evenings to get your personal affairs in order, spend the next days as if they are your last.”

Zandor is sitting with his feet on the chair and knees almost at his chin. He is skinny and pale withmessy hair and a scruffy chin. He is writing the name ‘Xian’ over and over again, “Where isSangoma?”Kleos, “I don’t know, a lot was going on when she disappeared. When you stepped into the etherealhub to find her, you never came back.”Zandor, “I was careless when I peered through…Shot of Zandor standing in limbo looking at a curved wall of cathode ray tube monitors.see saw me…please continue.”close up shot of a Chinese woman’s eyes across the wall of monitorsKleos, “I put my efforts into finding you and…”
