Rec 2: Still Rolling
I've been wondering how to do a shaky-cam styled fic, but after reading one by The Layman, I get the gist of it. Anyway, I've only seen the first film, so this is my continuation of it. If it does coincide with events of the actual sequel then it is a coincidence. I hope you enjoy it.
1...
[Footage shows nothing but darkness. There is a light shuffling noise off-screen plus some moaning. A hand suddenly comes into view, clawing at the floor. The moaning is louder and someone is sobbing.]
Angela: (Whispered) Where is it? Where is it?
[Hand covers lens and camera is jerked about until it reveals Angela's face. She is unscathed but looks purely terrified.]
Angela: (Whispered) If you are watching this...then it may be too late for me. I was doing a report on firemen and we came to this house for a simple house call. We found an old woman who had become crazed and she...she... [Angela sobs.] I don't know what happened! Everyone became infected with a virus...it...it made them very aggressive and could revive them if they were dead...
[Loud shriek]
Angela: (Speaking quickly) If I don't live to see the broadcast of this footage, please tell the world the truth. The government trapped us in here and left us for dead! They were going to kill anyone who would try and escape! They knew about everything! They kept secrets from us and...and they kept something else.
Off-screen: (High pitched) RRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGHHHHH!
Angela: Aagh! It's coming! Where the fuck is it?!
[Camera is jerked around and held in front of Angela. Pans across darkness but passes pale figure on opposite side of room. Camera pans back to figure and zooms in revealing a naked emaciated creature. It has a hideously warped face and looks vaguely human. It's eyes shine in the night-vision.]
Angela: There it is! The girl! The owner of this building thought she was possessed by the devil and stored her up here in hopes she would starve to death. She tried to attack me but she dropped me and I crawled under something. I've hid under there for god knows how long. I might be able to escape if I use the camera to find the door again...
['Possessed girl wails a long high pitched noise and swings her arms about, knocking over furniture in the process.]
Angela: Pablo? Pablo, are you still here? If you can hear me, follow my voice.
[Off-screen groaning. Camera scans the room and finds a pair of feet sticking out from behind a table. Light footsteps as Angela heads towards it, momentarily panning back to the monstrous girl. Angela kneels down and crawls around table. Camera slowly pans up revealing Pablo's body. His body is littered with vicious cuts and his eyes are closed. Angela whimpers at the sight of him.]
Angela: No...Is he dead? I...I think he's still breathing...
[Pablo's hand suddenly moves and grabs at Angela's hand. Angela screams and crawls away hyperventilating.]
Angela: Oh god he's one of them!! They're everywhere! I'm trapped in here!!
Pablo: Angela...Is that...You?
Angela: What? You're not infected?
Pablo: I guess not. Argh! Damn! Please help me up.
[Angela sets camera down and groans as she lifts Pablo up enough for him to stand on his own. Angela picks up camera and tries to find the possessed girl. She spins camera around and stops right in front of her. Girl roars and her breath mists up the lens. Angela and Pablo scream and the camera bobs around as they run.]
Angela: Where is the door?!
Pablo: Through here! Hurry!!
Angela: Where?! I can't see you!! Agh!! It's got me!!
Pablo: No, it's me! Calm down. Come with me, use the camera and find the door!
[Camera is raised and moves around, revealing a small door nearby. Both proceed to door and open it, falling through and slamming door shut behind them. Light suddenly spills in through a window at the top of a wall. Both hug each other and Angela sobs.]
Angela: I'm so scared! [Sniffs.] I thought we were going to die!
Pablo: Shh. It's going to be okay. We'll get out of here and we can forget this ever happened.
Angela: The military are probably still blocking the exits. We're trapped in here. They'll probably just burn the building to the ground and call it an accident!
Pablo: Don't talk like that we'll make it out of here!
Angela: How?! Everyone is still out there!
Pablo: Give me the camera.
[Pablo walks over to the door out of the penthouse. He places camera on the floor and footage reveals a shadow under the door.]
P: There is one out there.
A: What do we do?
P: Find a weapon. Anything, just find something.
[Pablo and Angela search through drawers and cupboards only to find nothing but papers. Angela walks off and searches elsewhere. Pablo begins to read through some of the papers about the infected girl. Angela cheers and camera whirls around to face her.]
A: I found something! [Takes a knife out of a drawer. The blade is rusted.]
P: It will do, give it to me and you can hold the camera.
[They switch items and Angela films Pablo slowly walking over to the door, knife raised. Pablo places his hand on the door handle and the sound of low growling can be heard outside. Pablo wrenches the door open and charges out into the corridor outside.]
A: Pablo!!
Off-screen: Grrraaaaaaaggghhhhhhhh!!!
Sorry it wasn't that long, but get used to it. Chapters won't be very long in this story. I hope you enjoyed it, Please review!
