## Full Chapter

FADE IN:

EXT. STREET - NIGHT

It's a dark night and the road is deserted in this rural side of town, except for one car occupied by three people. Their headlights are the only source of light available to them.

INT. CAR

The occupants are; THE BOYFRIEND (17 - driving), SARAH WINTERS (17 - passenger), and Sarah's LITTLE BROTHER (6 - backseat). Because of the darkness, the Boyfriend's face is not seen and is obscured by the dark. But you can clearly see Sarah and her Little Brother's face.

SARAH: Did you enjoy the movie?

LITTLE BROTHER: I did! It was awesome.

SARAH: That's good to hear.

BOYFRIEND: I'm glad that you enjoyed yourself, Buddy.

Sarah turns to her Boyfriend, looking at him all lovingly and admiration.

SARAH: I'm just so glad that you two get along and that you don't mind him joining us on our dates. Most boyfriends would never agree to that.

BOYFRIEND: He's a cool little guy. Besides, I wouldn't be a very great boyfriend if I didn't bond with your family. I love spending time with him. He's important to you. So he's important to me.

By the tone of his voice, you can tell that he is sincere and means it. This is a guy who truly is in love with his girlfriend and is willing to bond with her family to prove it. Sarah smiles. She is happy with the man that she is dating. She is touched by his dedication to her and his willingness to spend time with her little brother.

The car suddenly dies.

BOYFRIEND: Oh, boy.

This scares the Little Brother.

LITTLE BROTHER: What's wrong?

BOYFRIEND: The car just died.

LITTLE BROTHER: (horrified) Are we stuck out here forever?

BOYFRIEND: Oh, no. This is no problem. I can fix this.

EXT. STREET - NIGHT

So the Boyfriend confidently gets out of the car and looks under the hood. He sighs when he realizes what the problem is.

BOYFRIEND: The battery is dead. But that's no problem. All we have to do is wait for someone to stop by and help jump start the car and everything will be okay.

Suddenly, a BRIGHT LIGHT shines from behind the Boyfriend. He turns around to see a car approaching their car. The Boyfriend, Sarah and her brother sigh in relief.

SARAH: Thank God.

The car parks not far from the Boyfriend. Exiting the car are the five occupants; PORTMAN, LUTHER, SCHUYLER, RYDELL, and KILA (Pronouced as KEE-LA). They're all in their early to late twenties. They are obviously much older and bigger than the Boyfriend.

PORTMAN: Having car troubles?

BOYFRIEND: Yes. Any help would be appreciated. It’s miserable trying to fix it by myself.

PORTMAN: Ah. Don't worry, kid. We'll put you out of your misery.

Before the Boyfriend can react, Portman pulls out a gun and – FIRES THREE ROUNDS into the Boyfriend’s chest. The Boyfriend goes down and doesn't get up.

Sarah and her little Brother scream in horror over this as the Gang surrounds the car. Portman stands in front of the car while Luther and Schuyler force Sarah out of the car and Rydell and Kila force the Brother out of the car.

SARAH: LEAVE HIM ALONE!!!

SCHUYLER: SHUT THE FUCK UP, BITCH!

Schuyler smacks Sarah.

She cries as they drag her to the side of the road. The Little Brother cries out in fear.

LITTLE BROTHER: SARAH!!!

KILA: (To Portman) I'll take care of the boy. He doesn't need to see this.

PORTMAN: Go ahead.

Kila grabs the Little Brother and proceeds to drag him towards the woods. As this happens, the Little Brother continues to cry out for his older sister. Sarah watches helplessly as her brother is pulled into the woods.

SARAH: DON'T HURT HIM!!!

With the Little Brother out of sight, the men proceed their attack on poor Sarah. Schuyler hovers over her with lust in his eyes.

SCHUYLER: What a fine piece of ass this bitch is. It would be a shame if we let her go to waste.

Realizing what this means, Sarah proceeds to cry in terror. Schuyler gets on top of her and rips her shirt open. Sarah screams and begs him to stop as he pulls down his pants. But Schuyler punches her in the face, stopping her from screaming. He then proceeds to rape her, which is extremely vicious and brutal. He even chokes her until her face turns blue. But he doesn’t kill her.

The other four men stand there and watch. They're laughing as they enjoy the torture that they're inflicting on this poor girl. Each man expresses his desire to have a turn with her. This makes Sarah sob hysterically. She is going to be raped multiple times by four men.

EXT. THE WOODS - NIGHT

In a clearing, Kila blindfolds the crying Little Brother from behind.

LITTLE BROTHER: (crying) Please, let me go. Please.

Surprisingly, Kila actually attempts to calm him down with a gentle sweet voice.

KILA: You'll be okay, little one. Just stay still and relax.

After tying the blindfold, Kila kneels the Little Brother down to the ground.

KILA: Just stay there and don't move.

As the Little Brother stays kneeled down, Kila begins walking off, appearing to spare his life.

KILA: Keep the blindfold until I'm gone. Count to one-hundred.

As she walks further away, the boy begins to count.

LITTLE BROTHER: One...Two..Three...Four...Five...

Kila walks away from the clearing through six to eight. She keeps going until she's at the end of the clearing.

LITTLE BROTHER:...Nine...Ten...

Once she steps out of the clearing, Kila stops walking. She pulls out her guns, spinning around, and fires a single shot -- BANG!

The sound of a body slumping on the ground is heard. There is now only silence. Sarah’s Little Brother is no longer counting. Kila begins trembling. She is showing signs of regret of shooting a child. She runs out of the woods.

EXT. STREET - SIDE OF THE ROAD - NIGHT

Sarah has been raped, drugged up, cut up, and violated by the four men. Having heard the gunshot from the woods, Sarah knows that her Little Brother has been murdered. Portman is standing by with his cigarette, enjoying Sarah’s torture.

PORTMAN: Let's get this shit over with.

The other four men back away. Portman pulls out his gun and approaches Sarah. She is barely alive. She is no longer begging for her life. They have destroyed her soul. They taken her virginity, her boyfriend, and her Little Brother. They may as well just end her misery now. Portman gives her an evil grin.

PORTMAN: Goodnight, Sweetheart.

Portman points the gun at her head -- BANG! A bullet is put into Sarah's head. Sarah Winters is dead. Portman coldly stares at Sarah’s dead body.

PORTMAN: Let's go.

And as ordered so, the rest of the gang, now rejoined by Kila, go back into their car. They drive off, not caring that Sarah and her Boyfriend’s bodies are left out for the world to see.
