Exterior - Woods - Daytime
BRAY: Amber died! We buried her on the mountain!
DAL: Then how did she give
him her ring?
BRAY: Obviously she didnt.
DAL: He knew her name!
EBONY: Get real Dal! Whoever stole that ring stole
Ambers name along with it, her name was written on the cross.
BRAY: There are only two possibilities here: either your
so-called great leader is a liar, or you are. Give me the ring and well say no more about it.
PRIDE: I will never give
up this ring.
DAL: Pride saved your life Bray, just let it go.

ELLIE:
Mindless Zombies!
MAY: Well fed mindless zombies! What is this?
SALENE: Soup.
MAY: Uhm! Just like mom used to
make - not!
TAI-SAN: Just eat it. We need all the strength we can get!
MAY: I dont know if I can, it looks disgusting!
ELLIE: Yeah, well if you keep complaining we wont get anything!
MAY: Ah! Why dont they just get rid of us all and
be done with it, instead of this torture!
ALICE: Maybe they are trying to get rid of us? Maybe its poisoned?
ELLIE:
Well, I dont know what you guys are complaining about! I think its delicious! Than again, Im used to Alices cooking, so...
ALICE: Very funny.
MAY: Go ahead, laugh! You wont be laughing after two weeks of this slop!
TAI-SAN: May!
MAY:
You know Im right! We could be theyre slaves forever! All this heroics stuff, what are we trying to prove?
ALICE: Oh!
So youd rather we be beaten without a fight?
MAY: But we are beaten Alice, dont you get it?
SALENE: Mays right. How
are we expected to fight back if were too weak to stand up? Joining the Chosen could be our best option.
ALICE: Salene
we cant give in!
SALENE: Its not giving in, its just playing along.
ALICE: Well you play along, Id rather starve.
Scene 3
Interior - Trudys Room - Daytime
LUKE: You asked to see me Supreme Mother?
TRUDY: I want Brady!
She needs her mother! Bring her to me!
LUKE: My instructions are-
TRUDY: I am the Supreme Mother and I demand to see
my child right now!
LUKE: The Guardian forbids it! You havent touched your food?
TRUDY: It is Zoots will that I fast.
He is testing me, if I fail, I will remain captive here forever.
LUKE: They bring it here? But why not just keep food
from you?
TRUDY: What kind of test would that be?
Scene 4
Exterior - Woods - Daytime
LEX: All Im saying
is that we give them a chance. Weve got nothing to loose.
BRAY: What about the ring Lex?
LEX: What other options do
we have?
EBONY: I mean Brays right! We cant trust them! And all this living with nature brings me out in a rash!
BRAY:
What do you think about it Dal?
DAL: Sorry Bray, but, Im with Lex. Theres not much we can do against the Chosen. Besides
BRAY: What?
DAL: Its going to sound crazy
BRAY: Just go on, what is it?
DAL: Well, ever since the explosion
in the observatory Ive had this dream. I havent told anyone about this.
BRAY: A dream?
DAL: I dream that she- Amber
didnt really die after all. I told you it was crazy. Anyway, when Pride started talking about Eagle-
LEX: A natural leader
DAL: What?
LEX: Just something Pride said to us.
DAL: I have a really strong feeling about this. The dream- it
was so- so real!
EBONY: Well if you ask me Dal, its about time you woke up.
DAL: We wouldnt have to go far to find
out if Ambers still alive.
LEX: Prides territory is miles away!
DAL: Eagle Mountain isnt.
EBONY: Youre not serious!
LEX: You want to open the grave? Are you out of your mind?
DAL: Well if we check and the graves empty then it would
mean-
BRAY: No enough! Ive heard enough! Okay Im going to rest here tonight and Im going back to the city in the morning.
You guys can join me if you want to.
EBONY: Dal you can be so insensitive!
Scene 5
Interior - Cafe - Daytime
KC: Remember, just like I told you.
CLOE: Are you sure this is going to work?
KC: Yeah! I saw it in a movie; you
have to smile though, real sweetly.
CLOE: Like this?
KC: Forget the smile, just do it.
CLOE: Please sir, I want
some more.
GUARD: More? Only the Guardian can give you more!
CLOE: Well can you ask him? Im really hungry.
GUARD:
You ask him!
KC: Wow! You cant do that! Leave her alone!
GUARD: Bring him too!
KC: Look it was just a joke! Havent
you ever seen Oliver?
Scene 6
Exterior - Woods - Daytime
EBONY: Are you okay?
BRAY: Ive been trying
to think back to Eagle Mountain, but I just cant pictured it, it all happened so fast.
EBONY: You were knocked out, you
didnt come round till it was all over.
BRAY: Till what was over?
EBONY: Dont upset yourself.
BRAY: You know the
dream that Dal talked about? I have it too. Even now.
EBONY: You mean, since youve been with Danni?
BRAY: Nothing
makes sense anymore!
EBONY: Face it Bray, Ambers gone. And do you know whats going to happen if you keep thinking like
Dal? Your going to loose her all over again. Are you prepared for that?
Scene 7

GUARDIAN: Good morning. I trust
I find you well?
ELLIE: As well as you can be when youre dying of starvation.
TAI-SAN: What have you done to Cloe
and Kc?
GUARDIAN: Kc? Ah yes, I put them to work upstairs, theyre fine.
TAI-SAN: They had better be, or youll pay.
GUARDIAN: Is that a threat?
TAI-SAN: Its a universal truth.
GUARDIAN: You must to be more trusting my brethren.
ELLIE: Were not you brethren!
GUARDIAN: That can be rectified. Along with the food situation. Unfortunately we do
not have enough to feed everybody, so we must give priority to those who have been Chosen.
ELLIE: Your wasting your
time Guardian!
GUARDIAN: It is you who are wasting time, when you could be exulting in the glory of Zoot! Today, we are
giving thanks for the city at a special service of worship. Who will join us?
MAY: What does it involve? This service?
GUARDIAN: Prayers, nothing more. You will be given instruction.
SALENE: If we go along, does that mean were Chosen
too?
GUARDIAN: The choice is yours. Open your hearts to Zoot, and he will guide you.
SALENE: Ill do it.
MAY: Me
too.
ELLIE: You dont have to be so eager guys! Take the trial membership, six months, no obligation to pray!
Scene
9
Exterior - Woods - Daytime
PRIDE: These are edible, the buries are not.
BRAY: Id just like to apologise. That
ring thing, it kind of threw me.
PRIDE: I told you the truth. Do you want to tell me how you plan to rescue your friends?
BRAY: Well we cant attack the Chosen head on, were going to have to try and organise some kind of underground resistance.
LEX: The offer is still open Pride, why dont you join us?
EBONY: Anyone seen Dal?
LEX: I thought he was with
you.
EBONY: Maybe he wandered off and got lost.
LEX: Dal!
BRAY: Dal doesnt get lost. Oh no!
LEX: Dal! Over
here!
BRAY: Youre wasting your breath, I know where hes gone
Scene 10
Interior - Outside Trudys Room - Daytime
KC: Trudys got so much food that its not possible for her to eat it all!
CLOE: Look at what theyve done to this place!
I hate being theyre slave!
KC: Yeah, and I was just beginning to like it. Cloe, you remember how I was telling you that
story about Oliver? Did I tell you about the part where he meets the Artful Dodger?
Scene 11
Interior - Cafe
- Daytime
RYAN: Im worried about the baby too Salene, but by joining the Chosen your betraying Bray.
SALENE: No!
Im not! Ryan, Bray did the same thing, remember? He made the Guardian believe that he was on his side and then he gave us
that speech about never giving up. He tricked him, and thats exactly what me and May are going to do.
RYAN: Well what
about those prayers you have to say?
SALENE: Were just pretending Ryan.
ALICE: Well, hope Salenes prayers are answered!
RYAN: Salene has her reasons for going!
ELLIE: Well she wasnt the only see out! May was pretty quick to put up her
hand too!
TAI-SAN: Well she hasnt been a Mall Rat for very long, you cant blame her for looking after herself.
ALICE:
Well just watch me! Tai-San youre the one whos saying that we have to stick together!
TAI-SAN: And so we should! Thats
what the Guardian wants! To divide us!
ALICE: Well am I missing something here?
TAI-SAN: Theres more than one way
to fight Alice.
ELLIE: Were listening.
TAI-SAN: Well the first thing we have to do is to control our anger. Thats
what the Guardian thrives on, our hatred of him. Its like his food, so we have to starve him, just like hes starving us.
Scene 12
Interior - Trudys Room - Daytime
TRUDY: What is it now?
LUKE: Theres someone to see you Supreme
Mother.
TRUDY: Brady! Oh Brady sweetheart! Mommys missed you so much!
LUKE: This will have to be our secret.
TRUDY:
Why are you doing this? The Guardian could have you killed.
LUKE: Some of us feel its wrong for the Supreme Mother to
be imprisoned in this way. Even if it is true that you helped Bray to escape.
TRUDY: Whats your name?
LUKE: Luke.
TRUDY: Well Luke, it isnt true. I didnt know about the rescue plan, but what is true is that I hesitated when I should
have carried out my duty.
LUKE: At the execution?
TRUDY: And because of that, Bray escaped.
LUKE: Why did you
hesitate?
TRUDY: Bray and I had feelings for each other once, and I thought I might still win him over to the cause.
LUKE:
I see. We must go now majesty.
TRUDY: Oh no! Please! Just a little longer!
LUKE: Supreme Mother, you understand the
risk were taking here.
TRUDY: Be a good girl Brady, mommy will see you soon.
LUKE: Here, this will not be missed.
TRUDY: I cant.
LUKE: No one will know.
TRUDY: Zoot will know. He is watching us, and I will eat only when my Guardian
allows it.

TRUDY: I dont understand
GUARDIAN: Then I will make you understand! You must be pure! Like your master! Beyond desire! Beyond pain! Power and Chaos!
Say it!
TRUDY: I didnt eat anything.
GUARDIAN: Your lying! Admit it!
TRUDY: I want Brady! At least let me see
my child.
GUARDIAN: Not until you prove yourself worthy!
TRUDY: I promise, whatever it is Ive done, please forgive
me.

TAI-SAN: Hey! What happened?

ELLIE: You mean like
your mantra?
MAY: Yeah, we got our mantra! And the promise of a hot meal later on!
ELLIE: A hot meal!
TAI-SAN:
Ellie, dont-
ELLIE: Bray and Dal died for this and Jack got captured trying to make things better, I cant believe your
going to betray them like this!
SALENE: Thats right Ellie, Jack got taken away and Bray- Bray died! And Dal! Does that
mean the rest of us have to follow them? Do you really think theyd want that Ellie?
TAI-SAN: Hey Kc, are you okay?
KC:
I will be. Cloe-
CLOE: Dinner is served.
ELLIE: How did you-?
KC: You have to pick a pocket or two, right?
ELLIE:

SALENE: May and I are going to get some food soon. Ill
try and bring some back for you all.

EBONY: Find what youre
looking for?
DAL: Get away from me!
EBONY: What do you mean Dal? I came to help you.
DAL: You came? Why?
LEX:
Thats what Id like to know.
BRAY: Dal? Is she in there?
DAL: I- I dont know how to say this-
BRAY: Just tell me,
okay?
DAL: Its empty. The grave is empty.
BRAY: Okay! I want some answers and I want them right now!
DAL: I never
saw the body, I was too scared.
BRAY: Well who pulled her out of the fire? Lex? Was it you? Ebony? Answer me!
EBONY:
All I remember was a lot of smoke. Confusion-
BRAY: You know something.
LEX: Why me?
BRAY: Well youre the one
who told me she was dead! Was it all an act? What about Zandra? Is this whole thing a set up?
LEX: Look- I dont get this
any more than you do, but I know one thing, I laid Zandra to rest myself! And no one but no one will touch one stone on this
grave while I am still alive! You understand?
DAL: Your leader Eagle, she said she rose from the grave? What else did
she say?
PRIDE: She speaks little of the past, she speaks mostly of the future well build together, living off the land.
Being free.
DAL: That sounds like Amber to me. Bray please! Weve got to find out the truth!
EBONY: The truth is that
you guys are willing to sacrifice your living friends to bring back a dead one? An empty grave proves nothing! Meanwhile who
knows whats happening to the others!
BRAY: Yeah, suppose we come back with you to meet your tribe, what are the chances
your leader- who ever she is- would she help us?
PRIDE: Strangers are not welcome amongst my people, its a question of
survival.
BRAY: Yeah well, we know all about survival.
LEX: Youve seen how the Chosen operate. You could speak for
us!
PRIDE: I will try.
BRAY: I guess that means we follow him.

AMBER: Why have you brought them here?
BRAY: Oh my God!
DAL: Amber?
BRAY: It is you isnt it?
AMBER: I want them gone, escort them to the edge of
the forest. As soon as theyve gone we move camp.
PRIDE: Tonight?
AMBER: Yes tonight! Others are sure to follow! Im
disappointed Pride, what were you thinking?
BRAY: Wait! Wait Amber!
PRIDE: Watch them.
EBONY: Well that explains
the empty grave.
LEX: Yeah, sure, right. Its all crystal clear now.
BRAY: Dal, am I dreaming?
DAL: No, your not
dreaming Bray.
EBONY: Ambers really changed, hasnt she? Shes a whole different person.
LEX: What makes you say that?
EBONY: Well she cut us off like she didnt even know us!
LEX: Its the Amber I remember.
DAL: Who cares? Who cares
if Ambers changed? Shes alive! Thats all that matters! Isnt it?

PRIDE:
Dont you think the council should decide their fate?
AMBER: Theyre fate isnt our problem! No one asked them here!
PRIDE:
I did! I thought we should hear them out! At least let them rest here tonight. Theyre hungry and tired. Its true then?
AMBER:
Is what true?
PRIDE: That you used to be a Mall Rat. That you fought the evil one, the Loco.
AMBER: Zoot. Yes its
true.
PRIDE: So why didnt you tell me?
AMBER: Weve got to look to the future now, theres no point in looking back!
PRIDE: Not even to make sure our enemies arent following us?
AMBER: Zoot is dead Pride. I was there when it happened.
PRIDE: Thats what theyre saying about you. You remember the story you told me once? About being reborn up on Eagle Mountain?
I saw the grave myself, your name was written there.
AMBER: I didnt mean it literally, I meant I was reborn when I meet
you and the others, in the sense that my life changed for the good and for the better.
PRIDE: I see, thats why you fear
the Mall Rats. They remind you of your past.
AMBER: I fear all city dwellers, if youd seen what Id seen, then youd fear
them too. Look if you dont mind Id like to get some rest. What?
PRIDE: Eagle, theres something you should know, youre
not the only one to be reborn, Zoot lives on through a group called the Chosen. They rule the city with an iron fist. They
almost executed Bray; I got there just in time.

AMBER: I wanted

BRAY: I couldnt keep my eyes off you, it was scary.
AMBER: Well
the main thing is that were together now, and it feels so natural, like its always been this way and it always will be.

Exterior - Guian Camp - Daytime
LEX: She was knocked out, so she looked like she was dead
EBONY: Somebody buried
her alive you mean? Seems kinda careless, dont you think?
LEX: Well arent you the medic Dal? I mean, didnt you examine
the body?
DAL: Ive told you, I couldnt.
BRAY: This is crazy, were asking ourselves all these stupid questions when
the answers right up there.
DAL: Bray! What are you doing?
PRIDE: Stop him!
BRAY: Let me speak to Amber- Eagle-
Whatever her name is! Amber! I want to speak to her!
PRIDE: Bray, I did all you asked of me. I broke the law of the tribe
bringing you here, and now you must leave.
BRAY: What? Just like that?
PRIDE: I think you should get some rest, youll
be needing it.
BRAY: I will not rest till I know the truth! Amber! I know youre up there, so come on out. Its me, Bray.
Do you remember? Or is it just that you dont care anymore? Amber, if you dont want to know me anymore at least have the guts
to tell me to my face! Amber!

ALICE: Oh darling! Champagne breakfast! You really shouldnt have! You know how the bubbles go to my head!
ELLIE:
Tastes like water to me.
ALICE: Yeah, well, in times of despair it pays to have a good imagination.
ELLIE: Okay, so,
the Chosen, theyre actually this famous punk band.
ALICE: And the Guardian is like the lead singer.
ELLIE: And theyre
manager is this guy called Zoot, but hes had a few too many late nights recently.
ALICE: That would explain the bags under
his eyes.
ELLIE: And weve got tickets to theyre last ever concert.
ALICE: Its going to be performed at this amazing
venue called the Shrine!
LUKE: What are you two doing here?
ALICE: Never mind us. What about you? Shouldnt you be
warming up your vocal cords?
ELLIE: Alice, fantasys over.
LUKE: I suggest you get back downstairs.
ALICE: Look,
were just having a laugh. Trying to take our mind off how hungry we are.
ELLIE: Alice dont!
LUKE: Theres no need for
anyone to be hungry, not when you can be fed the word of Zoot. Now please, return to your friends immediately.
ALICE:
What do you make of that?
ELLIE: Who cares? Im starving!
ALICE: Ellie no! Dont!
ELLIE: Why?
ALICE: Its an
apple. Apples have been doing people in since the beginning of time! Remember Adam, and Snow Wight, both lured to their fate
by a shiny red apple, just like the one in your hand. On the other hand, it might not be an apple at all.
ELLIE: The word
of Zoot?
Scene 31
Exterior - Guian Camp - Daytime
EBONY: Ill say one thing for these creeps, they know how
to eat. All this food and not a tin opener in sight. Whats the matter Dal? Something I said?
DAL: Something you didnt
say, more like.
EBONY: Oh?
DAL: I dont get it. Someone we thought was dead turns up alive and your not even surprised!
How come?
EBONY: Well, Ive lived to see half the population wiped out, nothing surprises me anymore. Okay, I admit Amber
wasnt my favourite person, but that doesnt mean that I wanted her dead. Im really pleased to see that shes okay. What did
you find out?
LEX: Well, they call themselves the Guians after some idea from the old days where they believed that the
earth was one giant living thing. They each take their name from an animal or a bird, and that becomes their spiritual guide
they learn important things from it.
BRAY: So Amber is an Eagle now, that explains a lot.
EBONY: Well one things clear,
these people would be no good in a fight. Looks like weve had a wasted journey.
LEX: Pretty quick to forget arent we?
EBONY: Forget what?
LEX: Well how Pride got the better of us.
EBONY: Oh sure on home ground! I mean, let them
play Robin Hood if they want to, I say to win back the city, we need city kids.

LEX:
Go ahead, what are you waiting for?

AMBER: Ive missed you too.
DAL: What happened? I mean how? Why?

AMBER: Where did you go?
DAL: Back to the city, looking for the virus antidote.
AMBER: Did you find it?
DAL: After that we were in great demand. Made a change from hiding all the time. We were top
dogs for a while. Kings of the city.
AMBER: Power corrupts, right?
DAL: We did our best. Maybe even saved a few lives.
You should have been there. I still dont get it? Why didnt you try the Mall?
AMBER: Things happened Dal.

things?
AMBER: Pride for one.
Scene 37
Exterior - Eagle Mountain - Daytime
AMBER VO: I couldnt keep moving.
I needed shelter and food. Pride found me half way down the mountain. If he hadnt then I really would be dead now. I dont
know how long I lay in a fever, it seemed like weeks, all I know is when I finally came out of it I had become a sort of honorary
Guian. Id been adopted, sort of. And the strangest part was, I didnt mind a bit. I learnt to hunt and fish, grow crops, I
learnt the ways of the forest taking only what you need to live. One earth.

going back to the city Dal this is the paradise we always dreamed about finding, its right here, and you can be a part of
it if you want to.
DAL: Who says their looking for new members?
AMBER: Their leader.
DAL: I couldnt, not while
my friends are still in danger. Besides, this may seem like paradise, but for how long?
AMBER: What do you mean?
DAL:
Things are happening back there Amber bad things. Its like the virus all over again, except this time theres no adults to
blame.
AMBER: You mean this new tribe? The Chosen?
DAL: Theyre more than just a tribe, theyre making slaves out of
everyone. And theyll come for you, no matter how well your hidden.
AMBER: You mean unless I join forces with Bray and
Ebony? Theyre the last two people on earth id ever help! They make quite a couple though, Ill say that.
DAL: Couple? Hardly!
AMBER: You mean theyre not together?
DAL: Bray and Ebony? They hate each other, always have, you should know that.

EBONY: I dont know how much longer I can take this!
BRAY: What?
EBONY: Well having to stand here and watch how Amber makes a fool of you! Look this isnt right! I thought you guys were
supposed to mean something to each other.
BRAY: Dont worry about me Ebony.
EBONY: But I do worry Bray. You know,
if I was in your shoes right now, Id leave this place so fast it would start a forest fire.
BRAY: Wouldnt you just be
a little curious about what this is all about?
EBONY: No way! I mean with Danni missing and the rest of them in chains,
its more than she deserves! I mean can you believe she asked to speak to Dal instead of you! Like she didnt owe you a thing!
We should leave, Id like to see her face when she finally gets out of there and sees that weve split!
BRAY: You know
your right! What am I doing waiting in line?
EBONY: Face it Bray, were on our own against the Chosen anyway. The sooner
we get out of here, the sooner we can work out a plan to help the others.
BRAY: Ebony, I owe you an apology. I didnt come
here looking for reinforcements, but I guess you knew that. I was trying to relive the past, and you cant go back! I made
a big mistake! Hey Lex!
LEX: What is it?
BRAY: Were out of here!
LEX: Right away?
BRAY: I think weve outstayed
out welcome. Dont you?

AMBER: Look, I know I shouldnt ask, but
uhm is Bray seeing anyone? I mean, uhm I know its a dumb question, of course he is, but if it isnt Ebony than who?
DAL:
Your right, you shouldnt ask. If you really want to know, you should talk to him.
AMBER: Its complicated. Dal, I know
how it looks, throwing you guys out like this, but if you knew how hard weve worked to build a life for ourselves out here,
than maybe youd forgive me.
DAL: I forgive you anyway.
AMBER: What about you? Is there anyone special?
DAL: No.
Maybe my standards are too high, no one could replace you.

PRIDE:
For what its worth I wish you luck.
LEX: Yeah! Well I didnt come all this way just to leave empty handed! Amber used to
be our friend! Why wont she help us? What did she say?
DAL: She feels bad about sending us away.
LEX: Oh really! Thats
great, that is! I feel like just going and jumping for joy!
DAL: She cant risk it!
BRAY: What about the other thing?
DAL: Cheating death? She got out of the building okay, but then she blacked out. When she came to we were gone.
LEX:
She must have known we thought she was dead, I mean we didnt just write her off!
BRAY: Yeah she knew all right.
DAL:
She sounded like she was in shock.
EBONY: Well thats that then. We should leave. Weve wasted enough time here already.
LEX: Well, you gave it your best shot, thanks buddy.
BRAY: No! I dont buy it! She knew! She had the ring! Im not leaving
here till I get the whole story from her!
DAL: Bray no!

AMBER:

BRAY: Go on then! Throw me out! Ill just keep coming back until I get an answer! Your just going to have
to have me killed Amber!
AMBER: That can be arranged!
BRAY: Fine! Finish what you started! Why do you call yourself
Eagle? Because you like to rip peoples hearts out while theyre still beating?
AMBER: Youd know all about that!
BRAY:
Is that what you think? Why? Please tell me why!
AMBER: Its alright, you can let him go.
PRIDE: You sure?
AMBER:
Yes, you can leave us.
BRAY: Why didnt you try and find us after the explosion?
AMBER: I was confused and alone.
BRAY:
We all thought you were dead! But you knew that, didnt you? You found the ring I put on your grave!
AMBER: Okay, so I
found the ring. You have no idea how it feels to stand in front of your own grave.

AMBER VO: I had to pinch myself Bray, but I knew I wasnt dreaming. Because there was the ring, placed
beneath the stones. It was something real to hang on to, now I knew Id survived, but I was also hurt and exhausted. I knew
