Episode 22 - CHAPTER 8 : CRY OF LOST

Dec 06, 2024

In the Fields


Emma, pursued by relentless headhunters, stumbles and falls into a concealed hole in the ground. She slides down into a dark cave and gets cuts and bruises all over herself.


Emma  - Ouch!



On the battlefield turned to a cemetery.


Victor leads Team 2 to the site where their comrades were almost wiped out by headhunters. He sees the battlefield is grim, the headhunters left, leaving nothing but the bodies of their comrades across the terrain. The Silence of the battlefield breaks as a beep comes from Rebecca's scanner stating that it detects signs of life of their fallen comrade. 


Rebecca (looking at the scanner) - There are still some life signs here.

Victor (grimly) - Alright, everyone. Look for any soul breathing, We're taking them home.


As the team begins to gather the wounded, Lana approaches Victor with concern etched on her face.


Lana (anxiously) - I can't find Emma anywhere.


Victor, who was looking for Dylan. A soldier comes to Victor.


Soldier - One of the busted trucks is still in working condition.

Victor - It’s good to have some extra wheels. Fill it up when the first truck gets filled with wounded.

Lana (Grudgingly) - VICTOR!

Victor (intently) - We'll find her. Let's get everyone out first.

Lana - And what? What if she dies waiting?

Victor - I told you. we will find her.

Lana - when? When she stops breathing?

Victor (looking at Lana with cold eyes) - why don’t you prepare yourself for the worst.


A soldier, helping a wounded comrade, approaches Liam.


Soldier (urgently) - Victor, this one has something to say.


The wounded soldier, struggling but determined, conveys a vital piece of information to Victor.


Wounded Soldier (painfully) - Some of our people... headed towards the Police HQ in the north-east . Maybe you'll find them there.


Victor, wasting no time, decides on the next course of action.


Victor (to Lana) - We're heading to the Police HQ. Grab a few more soldiers.


Lana nods, and along with Rebecca and 2 additional soldiers, they follow Victor towards the Police HQ in a bust up truck.



INSIDE THE CAVE


In the darkness of the cave, Emma tends to her wounds.

Emma (Thinks) - This is what I get for being the prodigious one, and at last, I guess I am dying in here. (eyes become watery, Voice filled with anger and disappointment) Guess I’ll never find you.


Emma starts punching on the wall of the cave making her hands bleed.


Emma (while punching screams) - Dammit! Dammit! DAMMIT!


Emma stops punching as she sees blood tipping and recalls a memory with her father, father tells her, “If you ever need me just push the button on the walkie-talkie, I’ll come running.” Emma asks, “You promise? Father.”, Father replies,”I promise, My little trouble-maker”


Emma (chuckles) - Liar. 


Emma imagines herself trying to catch her father as he moves further and further away, remembering her mother’s words, “You should not chase your father, He is not like us.”


Emma - (wiping tears) No I’ll not stop, I will find him.


As Emma looks up, she sees the mysterious headhunter looking at him from the cave’s opening, right into her eyes. 


The Mysterious headhunter looking at Emma, hears the footsteps of other headhunters approaching. He stands up and targets those headhunters. He screams and punches right in the face of the first approaching headhunter making his head explode. 


 A horde of regular headhunters surrounds the mysterious headhunter, drawn to its presence. The MYSTERIOUS HEADHUNTER lets out a bone-chilling roar, sending shivers down the spines of both Emma who listen to it from inside the cave and the headhunters. The regular headhunters, compelled by an unknown force, charge towards the mysterious figure.


The mysterious headhunter moves with supernatural speed, effortlessly dodging the initial onslaught of punches and kicks. Its movements are calculated and precise, showcasing a level of combat prowess beyond the ordinary headhunters.


 A Regular HEADHUNTER attempts a powerful swing, but the mysterious headhunter swiftly side steps, delivering a devastating counter-kick to its midsection. The impact sends Headhunter 1 crashing into the ground.


A 2nd HEADHUNTER , fueled by aggression, lunges with a series of rapid punches. The mysterious headhunter exhibits incredible reflexes, ducking and weaving between the strikes. With a swift spin, it retaliates, delivering a powerful roundhouse kick that sends Headhunter 2 sprawling.


As the skirmish intensifies, the mysterious headhunter seamlessly transitions between offensive and defensive maneuvers. Its movements are fluid, almost dance-like, contrasting the brutish attacks of the regular headhunters.


Another HEADHUNTER attempts a sneak attack from behind, but the mysterious headhunter senses the impending danger. With a sudden turn, it grabs Headhunter by the arm, flipping it over and using the momentum to slam it onto the ground and crushes its head with a kick.


The mysterious headhunter, surrounded by fallen adversaries, lets out another primal roar, asserting its dominance over the remaining headhunters.

As he roars, one remaining headhunter starts running toward him, 


Emma’s eyes become wide open as she sees the fallen bodies of the headhunters.


Emma (Questions to herself) - What in the hell is happening?


Emma, uncertain and wary, meets the mysterious headhunter's gaze. In a surreal moment, the headhunter's eyes seem to narrow, creating an unsettling connection between them.


The mysterious headhunter, as if communicating through a silent language, shrinks one eye, conveying an enigmatic message. Emma, perplexed by this cryptic interaction, furrows her brow in confusion.


The mysterious headhunter then jumps with the intensity as it defies gravity. It springs from the ground with an otherworldly agility, propelling itself high in the sky Emma watches in awe as the headhunter ascends, disappearing from her immediate view. Emma falls down in the cave and feels the momentary silence,wondering about the nature of the mysterious headhunter and the cryptic exchange that just took place.
