"Steph appears disturbed and scared"

STEPH

Guys, something is out here.

CHIDINMA\FRANK

(Turns to Steph simultaneously)

Shut up!

STEPH

(Turns to her back, and sees Ayo smiling at her)

Hey, guys look it's that woman's daughter.

CHIDINMA

Thank God she's okay.

"Steph approaches her."

FRANK

(Notice the red marking on her neck)

Step back!

STEPH

(Turns to Frank)

Why?

FRANK

That's not a child, look at her neck.

STEPH

Oh, my God.

(Slowly moves backward)

CHIDINMA

Guys, what do we do?

FRANK

Well, she's a tiny one she should be easier and less aggressive.

(Smiles at Ayo)

Hello, how are you?

Shaku du du du shaku dududud Mummy sha!🎶🎶

"Ayo slowly slants her neck and turns to attack them."

FRANK

Oops, it's not working guys!

CHIDINMA

Get in the car guys.

(Goes into the car alongside others)

"They watch Ayo's face slowly wrinkle, shrink, and turn into a tiny beast."

FRANK

I told you guys this was a bad idea now we are stuck with a beast.

CHIDINMA

(Sights the car key on the dashboard, quickly picks it up, and attempts to turn on the car engine)

Damn it, it isn't working.

FRANK

I told you!

CHIDINMA

(Attempts again, this time the engine responds)

Yes!

FRANK

Now we have to get out of here.

CHIDINMA

Guys I only drove a couple of times so pardon me if I'm a bit rough.

FRANK

What the F....

"Chidinma changes the gear and puts the engine in motion."

STEPH

(Turns back)

You have to go a bit faster she's right behind us.

FRANK

Faster.

CHIDINMA

Don't yell at me.

(Steps on the gas)

FRANK

Maybe I should drive.

CHIDINMA

Too late for that.

FRANK

If that beast doesn't kill us, then you definitely will.

CHIDINMA

(Turns to Frank)

Shut up!

FRANK

Abeg, look where you dey go madam.

EXT. THE UGO HOUSEHOLD.

"Chidinma drives into the compound"

STEPH

(Looks around)

Everything is so different.

"Chidinma steps out of the car alongside Steph."

CHIDINMA

(Turns to Frank)

Are you not coming?

FRANK

Definitely no!

(Moves to the driver seat)

I will be waiting for you guys here.

CHIDINMA

Okay.

(Approaches the house with Steph)

Don't make a sound.

STEPH

What if we don't find anyone?

CHIDINMA

Shut up!

(Walks into the house)

STEPH

Doesn't look like anyone has been here in a long time.

CHIDNMA

(Approaches the dining room)

Oh, my God, no.

(Sights a skeleton wearing a necklace that belongs to Mrs. Ugo)

No!

(Weeps as she knees beside her mother's decomposed body)

Mummy!

STEPH

(Places both her hands on her mouth)

Oh, God.

(Turns to her left and sees a beast gazing at them)

Chidinma, we have to go.

Chidinma, now!

"The beast approaches them; Steph runs out of the building and heads to the car."

FRANK

What is it?

STEPH

Open the door!

FRANK

Show me both sides of your neck.

STEPH

Are you stupid?

FRANK

Do you want to get in or not?

STEPH

(Shows him)

Open the door!

"Frank opens the door, and Steph goes in."

FRANK

(Attempts to start the car engine.)

STEPH

(Turns to Frank)

What are you doing?

FRANK

I'm trying to get us out of here.

STEPH

No!

We are not leaving here without Chidinma.

FRANK

She's as good as dead.

Do you want to die?

STEPH

We are not leaving here without evidence that she is beaten.

FRANK

So wht do we do?

STEPH

We wait!

(Cries out.)

Please.

"The beast bits deep into her flesh, Chidinma screams out in pain."

INT. TRAIN.

"Chidinma screams out of her sleep."

STEPH

(Turns to Chidinma.)

What is it?

CHIDINMA

It beat me.

STEPH

What beat you?

CHIDINMA

The beast.

It beat me.

Mrs. UGO

Calm down, it's just dream.

CHIDINMA

No, it can't be.

(Looks around, notice everyone is starring at her)

Mrs. UGO

You are fine, breathe.

CHIDINMA

(Inhale and exhale slowly)

It's just a dream.

STEPH

Yes, it is.

CHIDINMA

Thank God

(Relax back on her chair, turns to the other end of the train, and notices Mr. Ajayi smiling mischievously at her. Suddenly a red marking appears on the left side of his neck. He turns into a beast.)

No!
