## Full Chapter

10 YEARS LATER

EXT. FAULKNER RESIDENCE - DAY

DESTINY FAULKNER (17), a beautiful girl, wearing all black, walks out of her house and proceeds to walk to the driveway. As she does so, she notices a car pulling towards her house. She turns to see the driver opening the passenger window. It's SCHUYLER, the rapey creepy member of Jyle Venedict's ruthless gang. He gives her the eye, which sends chills down her spine.

Walking out of the house just in time is Destiny's older brother, JEFF FAULKNER (25), masculine and tough looking guy. Looks big enough even for the notorious gang member to back off. Jeff gives Schuyler a dirty look. In response, Schuyler drives off.

JEFF: You okay, Destiny?

DESTINY: I'm fine, Jeff.

JEFF: You ready?

DESTINY: Yeah.

Destiny gets into the passenger side of Jeff's car.

EXT. LAKEHART HIGH SCHOOL - DAY

Jeff drives up to a sidewalk within the school grounds. Destiny gets out of the car.

JEFF: Have a good day at school.

DESTINY: I will.

Jeff drives off as Destiny heads for the school courtyard.

EXT. LAKEHART HIGH SCHOOL - COURTYARD - DAY

Sitting at a table is DANIEL CORDILLO (17), Destiny's boyfriend. He is going over last minute homework before turning it in. Destiny approaches him with a smile.

DESTINY: Hey, Daniel.

DANIEL: Hey, babe.

Destiny and Daniel kiss each other.

DESTINY: What are you up to?

DANIEL: Just doing some last minute home work before I have to turn it in to Mr. McCoy.

Joining the couple are their friends AMANDA MCKENZIE (17 - Destiny's best friend), JASON NIKE (17 - Amanda's boyfriend), and CHRIS SNYDER (17 - GROUP'S MAIN NERD).

AMANDA: Hey, Destiny. Did you hear what happened?

DESTINY: No. What happened?

AMANDA: Venedict's gang raped and murdered another girl. One from our school.

DESTINY: Oh, my God! Who?

AMANDA: Tara Rowley. She was walking home from visiting some friends when she was cornered by the gang.

DESTINY: Isn't that creep Schuyler from that gang?

CHRIS: He's their main rapist. He most likely had a hand in her murder.

DESTINY: He drove by my house as I was going to Jeff's car. He gave this creepy look. I was scared that he was going to jump out of his car and attack me. Thankfully, Jeff came out and scared him off.

DANIEL: (concerned) Are you okay?

DESTINY: I'm fine. He just came by to glance at me before taking off. It was creepy.

JASON: I fear everyday that those assholes are going to come around anytime to pick one of us off. (putting his arms around Amanda) I'd hate to see that happen to my Amanda.

AMANDA: I'd hate to see that happen to any of us. I'm just glad that nobody I know personally hasn't been victimized by this gang.

CHRIS: It's getting really bad. My mom is afraid to let me go out even during the day.

DESTINY: Somebody has got to stop them. Why haven't the police done anything?

CHRIS: Are you kidding? The police are afraid of Jyle Venedict. He's too powerful. Nobody can stop him.

The BELL RINGS. Everyone proceeds to head for their classes.

INT. LAKEHART HIGH SCHOOL - ENGLISH CLASS - DAY

LEE MCCOY (28), a young English teacher, faces his class and starts his speech. Attending this class is our four main teens; Destiny, Daniel, Chris, Amanda, and Jason. Among them is the Queen Bee of Lakehart JULIE WALKER, jock SCOTT BISHOP, writer KRIS BRIDGES, and Chris's best friend (who is not within Destiny's group) BRETT STUART, who is an even bigger nerd than Chris.

MCCOY: As some of you may have heard, one of our students, Tara Rowley, was murdered last night. This is a difficult time for us all.

SCOTT: Tara was just another victim we hear about everyday. Venedict's gang kills people everyday.

MCCOY: Yes. But Tara was a student in our class.

JULIE: She's not the first from our school to be killed or from this class. I'm sure this class had students who were killed before. She's just the first for this year for this class. Just another victim who'll be forgotten about. (snobby) Nobody will remember her. At least not as much as they'll remember me.

Destiny rolls her eyes over this comment.

KRIS: Can we do something else besides talk about this? We hear enough about this all over town. Can we have a normal school life?

CHRIS: She's right.

KRIS: Thank you, Chris.

CHRIS: You're welcome, Kris.

NOTE: See what I did there?

MCCOY: We will get back to our regular stuff in a moment. I just want to say that as your teacher, I care about you and your safety. So please, when you leave, don't go alone and don't go out late. I want to see you the next morning and not hear about another one of my students being killed. So, please, be careful.

McCoy obviously cares about his students and he shows it.
