1. Oisin runs as fast as he can.
2. He looks over his shoulder, seeing a monster, part Rourke, part lion, part machine, chasing him.
Page 2
1. Three glass rooms are ahead of them.
2. Oisin stops in front of them.
Oisin: Fuck.
3. The Rourke monster wraps around the three rooms.
Rourke: Look at them. The women of your life.
Page 3
1. Kathleen lies upon a hospital bed in an all white room. She's been gutted and her organs are the only color there.
Rourke: Your mother.
2. Miranda stands, held up by thread, her feet bleeding. There are track marks along the floor of her apartment (also colorless) as if she had been pacing.
Rourke: Your lover.
3. A colorless forest lies in the third glass box, but there's no one inside of it.
Rourke: The daughter.
4. The Rourke monsters face is inches away from Oisin's.
Rourke: You murdered the first. Just what do you plan to do with the others?
Page 4
1. Oisin closes his eyes.
2. He opens them, back in the hospital. There is a hand on his shoulder.
Miranda: There we go.
3. Oisin smiles at her, still looking tired.
Oisin: Miranda! What are you doing here?
Miranda: I came to pick you up. I heard you were good enough to go home.
Page 5
1. She and Oisin, now dressed, walk down the hall. He holds onto her, still a bit woozy.
Miranda: Are you okay? You looked like you were having a bad dream.
Oisin: Yeah. I was. I can't remember it though.
2. She smiles at him, reassuringly.
Miranda: Isn't that always the way, though?

5. She glares at him.

1. They drive.
Miranda: I love you, Oisin, you know that, right?
Oisin: Yeah, I guess. I love you too.
Miranda: I'm very grateful that you've decided to go look for Kelly for me. She may have come at a bad time, but she was my daughter. I don't want you to talk this the wrong way…
2. She looks over at him.
Miranda: I want you to stop this. This is the second time you've been the hospital since you met Eugene. I don't think it's a good idea for you to continue. At this rate you'll be dead within a year!
Oisin: Thanks for having confidence in me.
Miranda: It has nothing to do with my confidence in you. It has all to do with the fact that you're fighting monsters!
Page 7
1. Eugene leans forward, sitting in the backseat.
Eugene: Hey, he doesn't really have a choice, does he? If he doesn't fight these creatures, who will?
2. Miranda throws her foot on the break.
3. Oisin goes forward in his seat due to momentum.
4. Miranda turns, staring at Eugene.
Miranda: What the Hell? How did you get in here? Oh God, you scared the fuck out of me!
5. Eugene shrugs.
Eugene: Oisin has my ring. I have to go everywhere it goes.

Oisin: Yeah. I'm fine.
4. They resume driving.
Miranda: I'm so sorry about that.
Oisin: It's okay…
Page 9
1. Miranda helps Oisin up the stairs to his apartment.
2. She sets him on the messy bed.
Miranda: Now, I don't want you to worry. I'm going to do everything I can to take care of you, okay?
Oisin: I'm fine, really.
3. Miranda touches the hem of his shirt.
Miranda: Let me do this, alright?
Oisin: Um, what are you doing?
4. She lets go.
Miranda: I thought you'd be more comfortable without it constricting you further.
5. Oisin kisses her, softly.
Oisin: It's fine. Really.
Page 10
1. She walks out of the room, pausing in the doorway.
Miranda: Well, I'll be out here, making you something to eat. Holler if you need anything, alright?

Page 13
1. Miranda helps Oisin get back into a comfortable position, glaring at Moirrey.
Miranda: What the hell is that thing?
2. She crouches on the ground, hissing angrily at Oisin.
Eugene: She's Moirrey, a dragon. She sniffs out magical energy.
3. Eugene sits beside Oisin, who stares at the bleeding cuts in his arms, destroying his shirt.
Eugene: I'm sorry, Oisin. I've never seen her do that to a human before. She only gets that riled up when there's a magical creature around.
4. Eugene gets very close to Oisin.
Eugene: Lau noticed something strange earlier. Is there something you're not telling us?
Oisin: What?
5. Oisin looks down.
Oisin: I haven't noticed anything.

Miranda: I can feel it. That strange feeling you mentioned Lau having?
3. She covers her mouth as she yawns.
Miranda: It's just feels warm and makes you want to sleep.
4. Eugene snarls.
Eugene: So there is something! I just can't feel it!
5. He turns, angrily.
Eugene: Sometimes I hate being dead!
Page 16
1. Blood.
2. A body lies, curled up on top of the blood as if it's growing out of it.
3. Oisin stands up, blood dripping from his hands.
4. He looks around, rubbing the blood out of his eyes.
Page 17
1. Miranda looks through the book of spells.
Eugene: It should be on page 586.
2. Miranda flips to the page. It says, "True Sight" on the top.
Miranda: I've got it!
3. Eugene looks over her shoulder at it.
Eugene: Great! What do we need?
Miranda: Doesn't look like much.

Miranda: I don't know if I can do this Eugene. I mean, other than you I've never seen anything like this.
2. Eugene puts his hands on her shoulders.
Eugene: You'll be fine. You're just going in and taking a look.
Miranda: But what if it sees me back?
3. Eugene looks back at the book.
Eugene: Don't worry. It can't. To it, you're seeing everything as you usually see.
4. Miranda sets the bowl down.
Miranda: Well, alright then, here goes.
5. She dabs some of the mixed powder onto her eyes.
Miranda: Augum frá augliti mínu. Augum augun á mér. Við skulum sjá hvað húðir og sannleika að auki.(Sight of my sight. Eyes of my eyes. Let's see what hides and truth besides.)
Page 20
1. Rourke, hooks and lines hanging from his mouth, holds out a noose.
2. Oisin looks over his shoulder, seeing a tall tree behind him.
3. He shakes his head.
Oisin: No. I can't kill myself. Not here, not now.
4. Oisin glares at Rourke.
Oisin: And because it's your suggestion, not ever.
Page 21
1. Rourke smiles, his teeth sharp amongst the fish heads that slide out from underneath them.
2. He starts to melt away.
Rourke: Not for meee, perhapsssss.
3. Oisin stares down into the blood surrounding him.
Oisin: What the?
4. The blood forms tentacles, wrapping around his legs.
Page 22

Miranda: I can't do this, Eugene! I just can't.

4. Blackness.
Page 24
1. Oisin lies, asleep in his bed. On his chest lies a Mare, coiled long a feral dog, it's hair spiky and it's face ape-like.
I don't think this series will ever end. I think I'm okay with that.

Miranda, good job acting natural.
