The Raking Page #4

Synopsis: As part of a Cultural Anthropology Project, several college students embark on a weekend camping trip to research an urban-legend, The Rake. The Rake is a terrifying monster, in humanoid form with long claws. The creature feeds only on the Equinox, which also happens to be the same time the college students take their camping trip. As the college students explore deeper and deeper into the desert to chase down the myth, and disprove of it's existence, they find themselves no longer the hunters of mystery, but the prey of The Rake itself. Now they find themselves fighting for their very lives.

But I say that

without any judgement.

You know what, Noah,

you're growing on me.

Oh, okay.

Are we almost there?

This drive is, like, brutal.

We're not far.

Yeah, I really have to pee.

Can we stop?

Me too.

Like, really, really bad.

Seriously? You can't hold it?

I mean, we're almost there.

Yeah, but my bladder's

about to explode.

Don't you think you're being

just a little overdramatic?

No, I think that this

is being overdramatic!

[tires screeching]

Jesus Christ, Kennedy!

[grunt from the back]

What the hell was that?!

[groaning in the back]

What the...

Hi.

Really?

Kelly, what the hell

are you thinking?!

Kennedy!

What?

I made an executive decision,

okay?

Jade was being a witch.

Pun intended.

What?

Am I supposed to be scared,

or something?

Ow!

- [Kelly] Jade, stop!

[Kennedy]

Let me go!

- Jade, stop!

- Let me go!

Oh, my God, you b*tch!

- Jade, stop!

I'm the b*tch?!

I don't think you're a b*tch.

Jade, please don't be mad.

I just... I'm not gonna

get in the way,

and she was just trying to help!

She doesn't wanna ever help

anyone but herself.

You guys okay here?

We're good, thanks.

You goin' campin'?

That's right.

Where abouts?

[whispering] Why? So you

can follow us and kill us?

Joshua Tree.

Tonight's not a good night

for campin'.

Why?

It just isn't.

It just isn't.

Well, that was weird.

[subtle ominous music ]

[music fades]

[upbeat rock music

on car stereo ]

I bet that's an awesome shot

of you.

What?

[fire crackling]

You by the fire.

[Jade]

Really?

Totally.

If only we had a cauldron.

[laughs]

[Jade]

Bit me.

- Kennedy.

- I'm just kidding, okay?

Everybody needs to relax.

Here.

Who wants one?

[crickets chirping]

Kelly?

One.

- Really?

- Nice.

Jade?

What the hell?

Hmm.

It's so peaceful here.

That's probably what

all those people said, too...

right before they disappeared.

If they disappeared.

Hey, someone should tell

a ghost story.

Yeah, I agree.

Does anyone know any good ones?

Mr. Cooper, you must have

some good ones.

Yeah, Mr. Cooper.

Tell us a story.

Well, I do know one.

[clears throat]

20 years ago,

a few girls on campus

went missing.

All right, but the only thing

they knew

was that the murder weapon

was a hatchet,

but they never caught the guy.

Oh, my God.

Two years later,

over Thanksgiving Break,

two girls decided to stay

on campus and go to a bar.

One of them met a guy, so naturally

the other one left. [rustle]

Did you hear that?

Um, should we stop?

No, I wanna hear

the rest of the story.

Did you hear something?

Probably just a rodent.

They all come out at night.

Ew.

Do you want me to keep going?

[laughs uneasily]

Uh-huh.
