This is in response to lucia_tanaka's "You're the TPTB This Time" challenge.
INT. CRAWLSPACE-DAY
It's a dusty space and full of cobwebs and other things you would not want to come up against in the dark. Unfortunately, LUCY and JACKSON are here and it is quite dark except for the sunlight that leaks through from the sides. The horrified looks on their faces come quite naturally in this place. There is also a large THUMPING noise that may also be responsible.
JACKSON
(glumly)
You have no idea what you've gotten yourself into...
CUT TO
EXT. SCHOOL COURTYARD-NIGHT
JACKSON and LUCY dash across the courtyard, fleeing from some sort of monster thing that is gaining on them. They manage to make it to a door and slip inside the building and close the door behind them just as the monster thing starts to pound on the door with his fists.
JACKSON
(terrified)
Well, it's been nice knowing you, Luce...
CUT TO
INT. CUBICLE FARM-NIGHT
JACKSON and LUCY are hiding under a desk, listening to the footsteps of someone/thing.
JACKSON
(panicking)
This is it, finito, the end, sayonara. All that's left for us to do is make peace with our deaths...
CUT TO
INT. MALL FOOD COURT-DAY
It is a sunny day at the food court, JACKSON sitting across from LUCY, a large junk food type meal sits between them.
JACKSON
(shouting frantically)
The very fabric of space and time is being torn apart, the entire universe is going to descend into chaos!
LUCY
(annoyed)
In the next fifteen minutes?
JACKSON
Well, no, not really...
LUCY
Then, let me finish my fries without having to listen to another melodramatic monologue.
JACKSON
Only if I can have half.
Without waiting for an answer, JACKSON dives into LUCY's fries.
CUT TO.
INT. LUCY'S CAR-AFTERNOON
LUCY and JACKSON sit in her old pickup truck, the radio on. JACKSON has a map spread on the dashboard and is rapidly doing some equations on a yellow legal pad and calculator.
FREDRICK (v.o.)
The she demon and the psychic could destroy everything. All our secret plans, midnight meetings, those hours spent eating popcorn while watching Sci Fi movies will be in vain.
CUT TO.
INT. OFFICE BUILDING-NIGHT
FREDRICK sits on a desk in his office while ANDREW sits in a leather chair behind FREDRICK's desk.
ANDREW
Don't worry. Freddy...
ANDREW gets up and puts a steady hand on FREDRICK's shoulder.
ANDREW (cont.)
I will make sure they don't harm us, soon the future will be ours to know. Plus, you were the one who thought a movie marathon would be a good idea.
FREDRICK smiles, reassured, and lets out a pathetic attempt at an evil CACKLE while ANDREW rolls his eyes and sighs.
CUT TO ALLEYWAY-NIGHT
JACKSON and LUCY are fighting a monster thing. JACKSON gets hit with one of it's needle like claws and falls to the ground. The monster thing hits LUCY and she gets thrown into her car, parked where the alley meets the street, leaving a dent. She picks herself up and walks towards the monster.
LUCY
(angry)
Congratulations, you just pissed off a...
JACKSON gets up off of the ground with a goofy grin on his face, obviously drugged by some sort of poison in its claws.
JACKSON
(giggly)
I'm a psychic
LUCY
(annoyed)
Thanks for stealing my thunder, psychic boy.
JACKSON
Sorry, I thought your little intimidating speech was done, I am a psychic, you know. So I knew what you were gonna say.
LUCY kills the monster and picks up JACKSON, throwing his arm around her shoulder and dragging/carrying him out of the alley.
JACKSON
We're champions, killing the demons that come with the future. Protecting the normal humans. And whoever is doing it, better watch out, because they've got a target on their foreheads...
He points to his nose.
JACKSON (cont.)
It's only a matter of time.
FUTURES
Coming soon...
^ Just thrown together quickly, I apologize for my lack of knowledge about script formatting. I'm sure that I messed it up completely, but I hope you get the idea.
^Also a quick little fun thing, obviously from the same series.
