1 EXT. STREAM - STONEYBRIDGE WOODS 16:45 DAY 1 (TUESDAY) 1

MADDY, SHANNON, TOM, RHYDIAN, CERI

A small stream in the woods. Trees and bushes cluster

thickly along the bank: ideal cover…

With a SHRIEK of delight, SHANNON SWINGS ACROSS THE STREAM on

a rope suspended from an ancient oak. She lands safely

MADDY:

Go, Shannon!

TOM:

My turn.

Even RHYDIAN’s applauding.

She swings the rope back, TOM catches it. Makes a comedy

routine out of spitting on his hands, psyching himself up as

if this was some impossible feat

But as he swings out over the stream, SOMETHING RUSTLES in

the bushes. TOM looks towards the movement - his grip slips -

And he falls into the stream!

MADDY:

Tom!

SHANNON:

You all right?

TOM:

Someone’s there!

Scrambling upright, dripping, he points into the thicket:

TOM (CONT’D)

Someone’s spying on us!

A HOODED FIGURE:
can’t tell if it’s male or female, let alone

who it is. Then the bush RUSTLES, and the figure is gone.

2 EXT. BUSHES - STONEYBRIDGE WOODS - 16:50, DAY 1 2

SHANNON, TOM, MADDY, RHYDIAN

SHANNON crouches to examine broken and trampled twigs.

SHANNON:

This is where he was standing.

TOM, MADDY and RHYDIAN stop a couple of paces back, wary of

trampling the evidence.

TOM:

So was he spying on us?

SHANNON:

How am I supposed to tell that from

a few broken twigs? Come on, let’s

get out of here…

She leaves, followed by TOM. MADDY and RHYDIAN hang back just

long enough to SNIFF THE AIR and catch a SCENT TRAIL.

RHYDIAN:

The same scent.

RHYDIAN (CONT’D)

The wild Wolfblood from the woods.

The one who attacked you.

TOM looks back.

TOM:

Come on.

3 INT. BERNIE’S - 17:00, DAY 1 3

BERNIE, TOM, MADDY, RHYDIAN, SHANNON, N.S CUSTOMERS

WATER DRIPS into a small PUDDLE under a chair - dripping off

TOM. Preoccupied with prodding his sore knee, he doesn’t

notice. MADDY sits across the table from him.

MADDY:

Haven’t you got a big game Friday?

TOM:

Yeah, it’s the county cup final and

we’re playing Baron’s Mill High

School. The team we always lose

to.

Weaving through the few other CUSTOMERS, RHYDIAN and SHANNON

arrive with a tray. Hot chocolate all round.

RHYDIAN:

So your leg won’t make a difference

then.

TOM:

Thanks, mate.

SHANNON:

Who cares about football? I want

to know who the creep in the bushes

was!

Bernie overhears.

MADDY:

Probably just a dog-walker.

TOM:

I didn’t see a dog.

(to Shannon)

Clearing tables nearby, BERNIE decides to butt in.

BERNIE:

Seen her too, have you?

TOM:

“Her”?

SHANNON:

Seen who?

BERNIE:

The homeless woman who’s sleeping

rough. She’s been seen around the

village these last few nights.

INT. KITCHEN - MADDY’S HOUSE - 18:30, DAY 1

55

EMMA, DANIEL, MADDY

MADDY is setting the table for dinner. EMMA is carrying

condiments and sauces from cupboards to put on it. DANIEL is

stirring something on the stove.

EMMA:

Whoever she is, she shouldn’t be on

our territory!

MADDY:

What if she’s in trouble?

DANIEL:

If she needs help, why does she

only appear to you two, and never

to me or your Mum?

MADDY:

Maybe she’s nervous - you know,

because she’s trespassing?

DANIEL:

Nervous? Her kind aren’t nervous

about anything. Especially “tame”

Wolfbloods.

EMMA:

Daniel!

DANIEL:

Maddy needs to know what they think

of us. To them, we’re weaklings,

traitors to our heritage. Pets.
