INT.LABORATORY-NIGHT
We see the new york sky-line in the far distance, the empire
state building looking ever so vibrant in the distance.
The sound of police cars are heard speeding through the 24
and 25th avenue.
Then the desk made from aluminum, a reptilian eye faces the
screen.
A sirange impales it’s body and a green substance flares in
the sirange.
We then close up on a man’s face who has not slept in days
and weeks.
And then he injects the substance into a filter gun with
shiny point.
It slowly inches into a thick vain, for a moment the man
stands still and falls on his knees and stares on the city
sky-line. The eye shape changes to something yellow and
reptilian.
A loud thud is heard and a student dashes to the classroom
where he believes the sound came from.
He slowly opens the door as he shakes and shivers.
He enters the room and the a giant hole in the wall is seen
as bricks and debris lie everywhere, the only thing that
remains is an i.d card with the encriptions Dr. curt.
