CALLER

Have you got him yet?

HOODED MAN

No, not yet boss, we’re working on it right now

FADE IN

John is running away from a gang of criminal henchman who are trying
to seize an important package from his grasp. John is hiding behind
a door in a corridor trying to make himself smaller. The hooded
figure is patrolling up and down trying to find him. John is out of
breath and is breathing heavily.

CALLER

Well hurry and get or it’ll be your neck!!

HOODED MAN

Yes, boss!!

John begins to crawl away on the floor while clutching a briefcase

closely to his chest. He swivels around the corner and gets to his
feet and runs around another corner huffing and puffing out of
breath. A civilian walks past the corner, as he leans forward to
check who it is. He then notices a lift, in joy he realises it’s his
way out, but his hopes are dashed when he sees an out of order sign.

JOHN

(Under his breath)

Daaammmnn!!!

He checks around the corner and makes a run for it as he goes down
the corridor down a flight of stairs. But he is quickly pursued by
the hooded henchman. He finally gets to the bottom and thinks he is
safe from any danger. He looks left and right but is unexpectedly
punched down to the floor by another henchman. The henchman towers
over John and calls his boss.

HOODED MAN

Yep, we’ve got him

FADE OUT

FADE IN

John wakes up in a dark room stripped of his clothes. A mysterious

figure comes out of the dark. Holding the empty briefcase, he
punches him in his stomach.

MYSTERIOUS FIGURE

Where’s the money you punk

John replies back with spitting in his face.

JOHN

There’s your money!!

MYSTERIOUS FIGURE

Wrong move....

He carries on his vicious attack on John.

FADE OUT
