THE DARKEST HOUR: PARIS
[ANIMAL BY NEON TREES PLAYS.]
INT. CAR - NIGHT
Three young girls sit in the car. The car drives along as the song continues in the background.
The three are ALEXI CARTER, KARA BRADLEY and BAILYNN SABRA.
BAILYNN
Drive! I want to be in Paris by the morning!
INT. PLANE - MORNING
The plane starts to touch down at an airport, the same three girls grinning wildly as they stare out the window.
INT. CLUB - UNKNOWN TIME
Everyone in the club is dancing around as the three look mildly confused. They walk up to a group of people.
KARA
Can you guys help us?
GUY
Yeah, what's the problem?
ALEXI
Oh thank God! Someone who speaks English!
EXT. CLUB
The girls and the group of people are laughing and talking.
The group of five people they met are DAMON SHIELDS, MATT CRAVEN, GARY WILKES, DONNA EVANS and EMILY ROSS.
EMILY
Just stick with us, you'll be fine.
EXT. STREET - NIGHT
The group of eight are outside, once again laughing and talking. All the lights in the city go out, and their voices immediately stop.
[ANIMAL CUTS OUT.]
GARY
Is a blackout normal here?
DONNA
I don't think so.
MATT
Ugh, I hate having no power. It sucks.
CUT TO:
The group looks slightly scared but amazed as golden balls descend on the city and dissolve into the air.
KARA
Oh my God, it's beautiful!
CUT TO:
A man on the street walks toward where one just dissolved into the air.
MAN
This is incredible!
A cord of yellow light appears and wraps around his face. It yanks him forward and the man is shredded into ash. Everyone SCREAMS.
CUT TO:
DONNA and BAILYNN hide behind a wall as the crackling and glowing alien form approaches. Their faces are contorted with fear.
CUT TO:
The group madly dashing towards a glass building.
CUT TO:
A cord of yellow light wraps around Alexi's leg.
ALEXI
HELP!
CUT TO:
THE DARKEST HOUR
The title dissolves.
CUT TO:
PARIS
CUT TO:
SOON
CUT TO BLACK.
