Episode 1 – When the Past Catches Up

[The camera swifts along the long mall stairs. They are rusty and covered in dust, Then the camera catches along the spring, the little lights that always burned so light, just hang round wild and senseless (in background the melody of the dream must stay alive is played

[The camera leaves the mall, swifts over the city, which is deserted now. We see old papers flying round, pictures of people we used to know…We see a Techno laser lying on the group

Scene 1

[Camera swifts over the ocean…far away till Australia, we're in Melbourne now. The sun shines brightly out of a blue sky. We see two familiar people walk along a street, they are talking, one with red hair is carrying a little package, and the Camera zooms in on them.

May: "We had so much luck we got it right in time…Brady will love it…"
Salene: (looking at May with a smile) "So right…gosh…I can't believe she actually turns four today…"
May: (with a laugh) "You better believe or young missy makes you remember….see…as she told us this morning I am no little girl anymore!!"

[The two laugh amused, thinking at Brady who said that just at breakfast with jelly round her little girl's mouth

Scene 2

[We're in the kitchen of the old school now, the camera shows a big table in the centre of the room, full of presents and a big chocolate cake stands in the middle, on it four candles. Trudy is preparing the last things…

Trudy (to herself): "Oh my god….four years…my baby really turns four years…if anyone would have told me at the beginning how hard her life might get…"

[Trudy's gaze gets thoughtful

FLASH BACK

Trudy's house
Trudy: I didn't want to go, I didn't want to leave them, but there was nothing I could do.
Bray: Trudy, there was nothing anybody could do. Come on, we'd better go; the Roosters are moving in, we're not safe here.

Mall
Bray: Everybody, this is Trudy.
Patsy: I know what that is, that's a baby.
Bray: That's right. We need a safe place to stay. We've been on the move for a week. She needs somewhere to have the baby. This is the safest place we've found.

Trudy: Arghh! Oh Bray its coming! The baby's coming!
Salene: Trudy!
Trudy: Arghh!
Amber: What's wrong?
Bray: The pains have started.

[Trudy holding Brady for the first time
Salene: Well Trudy, do you think you're ready for the revel? Alright you can come in now, but be quiet.
Cloe: I made you a mobile. See? It clangs and everything!

Patsy[screams
Bray: What is it?
Trudy: Where's my baby? BRADY

FLASH BACK ENDS

[Amber enters the kitchen with a big present herself

Amber: Hey Trudy…awww….that all looks wonderful…Brady will be so happy! (She notices Trudy's gaze and touches her shoulder in concern) TRUDY"
Trudy: (struggling to come back) "Oh hi…"
Amber; "What's up with you honey?"
Trudy (trying a smile): "Just some memories…four years….lot has happened there…"
(Amber nods…her eyes get sad)
Amber: "True…very much…"

[Amber's eyes get dizzy

FLASH BACK

Bray: You know I used to stand up here for hours, just letting my mind drift? Especially at the beginning; you know - when I didn't know whether to stay with the Tribe
Amber: Don't you do a Sasha on me
Bray: No fear! Where you are - so am I!
Amber: Why did it take us so long to get it together?
Bray: There was a lot in the way; Trudy... and Brady. I mean it was pretty bad timing
Amber: Maybe we were both a little afraid of ourselves, I know I was
Bray: Really?
Amber: I wanted you from the first moment. Did you feel the same way?
Bray: Maybe. (she hits him) Okay, okay...I couldn't keep my eyes off you. You're right, it was scary. I didn't want to be vulnerable - I couldn't afford to be, not with the way things were
Amber: Well the main thing is that we're together now and it feels so natural, like it's always been this way and it always will be

Bray: How are you?
Amber: I'm okay. You?
Bray: Never better!
Amber: Bray...is this Top Hat guy really that bad?
Bray: Let's hope we never get to find out. But just in case, I brought you something - a token, in case...well...you know
Amber: The peace symbol.
Bray: From when I thought I could change the world, before it changed forever without telling me first.
Amber: What are they?
Bray: Well, that's my front door; back door; and padlock to my first bike! The keys to my heart!
Amber: I haven't got anything for you. No, wait...this ring...my grandad gave it to me

Amber: So...what?...Were you just going to leave without a word?
Bray: I thought it would be easier this way.
Amber: Yeah, well you would wouldn't you? You always found it easier to run.
Bray: If you feel that strongly, Amber, why did you come after me?
Lex: Because she's crazy about you; isn't that obvious?
Amber: You just keep out of it - it's nothing to do with you
Lex: Maybe not. But then again, I've never taken your advice, Amber. Why start now? Look, I don't know why you think he's in love with Ebony. It's stupid. You're wrong. You're so wrong it's not even funny!
Amber: Oh, I get it. Boys in it together. He helped you out in there, so you're returning the favour?
Lex: Look why don't we just quit messing about now. Look at him. Why is he here? Have you asked yourself that? If he wanted to run off with Ebony, why did he come back here and rescue us? Because he loves you, dummy; and you love him. That's your cue to kiss her. Do I have to tell you how to do everything?
Bray: I've never really listened to him before either
Amber: Nor me
[They take his advice and kiss

Bray: Fine! Finish what you started. Why do you call yourself Eagle? Because you like to rip peoples' hearts out while they're still beating
Eagle: You'd know all about that
Bray: Is that what you think? Why? At least tell me why?
Eagle: It's all right - you can let him go.
Pride: You're sure?
Eagle: Yes. You can leave us
Bray: Why didn't you try and find us after the explosion?
Eagle: I was confused and alone
Bray: We all thought you were dead. But you knew that didn't you? You found the ring I put on your grave.

Bray: The nights I've dreamed of lying here next to you like this, knowing it could never happen
Amber: Me too. When I think of all the time we've wasted
Bray: Don't
Amber: Bray, what about Danni?
Bray: I have to find her somehow - if she's still alive
Amber: And then what?
Bray: Then I have to tell her about you and me. But, you know, I think she's always known how much I loved you, Amber. What's the matter? It'll be okay, I promise
Amber: No, it's not that, Bray. The thing is I think I should still go; it's still the best plan we have
Bray: I've been thinking about that too. I'm so scared. I couldn't bear to lose you again
Amber: You won't. (She takes off the ring and gives it to Bray) This time it's for keeps

Trudy: I'm sorry Amber Bray's been taken
Amber: (Brakes down in tears) No
[Trudy hands over the ring

Amber: I wish for you a fine bright world to grow up in. And a future for you to believe in. But you'll need a name to be known by and I can't think of any name better than your father's. So Bray my little son, welcome to the world!

FLASH BACK ENDS

[Trudy sees the tears in Amber's eyes

Trudy: "Hey…Amber…what's up?"
[Amber shakes her head and drives a hand over her eyes
Amber: "Oh nothing…just memories…"
Trudy: "Of him? I mean…of Bray?"
[Amber looks down to the floor
Amber (whispering): "Yes…."

[Comforting Trudy lays an arm round her friend

Trudy: "I miss him too…at all…without him Brady wouldn't even alive…."
Amber: "Without him all of us wouldn't be alive anymore…"

FLASH BACK

Bray: "I got bitten by a demon dog"
Cloe: "Poor Bray"

Bray: "they make the Locos look sane; their leader, Top Hat, is a psycho.
Amber: "Tribe who?"
Bray: "Just pray that KC didn't tell him where we are"

Salene: "It's the Locos"
Trudy: "It's not, It's Bray"
Ebony: "Get on everyone"

Bray: "Power and Chaos. Power and Chaos. Power and Chaos"
Bray: "There's work still to be done. Why have you abandoned your mission? Traitor! Your soul will never enter the great Hereafter. End this sacrilege now, and I may be lenient."

[On the boat
Ellie: "That's our home"
Lex: "Not anymore"
[We then see a picture of the boat sail across the sea

[We see the Mallrats climb of the boat they look tired and hungry dusty group, they are in Australia

FLASH BACK ENDS

Trudy (hugging her): "Yeah…but he didn't want us to be sad…remember his motto…Keep the dream alive!?"
(Amber nods again and sobs a little as Jay suddenly come sin. Directly he goes over to her)
Jay (tenderly voiced): "Amber…anything wrong?"
(Avoiding his eyes she gets up, taking up the plates)
Amber: "No…nothing…everything is perfect…like always…"

[Jay sits down on the table and watches his girl and in his face is written that he doesn't believe in her words…

Scene 3

[The camera swifts out of the building, along the nature and stops at an ugly place, it stops at an old bandage, telling us we're in ROXBY DOWN now. Everywhere are wagons, which belonged into the mines, lying round. Axes are lying round, just like hammers. The old mining buildings speak a language of hopelessness and in the air hangs a certain smell of death…

[We see a little boy who's talking nevertheless excited to a tall guy beside him, whose hand he is holding

Boy: "Will we really be free now? And can we go wherever we want? And will have always enough to eat? And will I be able to play with other kids?" (His eyes shine bright and curious)
Man (with a familiar manly voice): "Yes Kaden-…from now on we can do whatever our heart tells us too…"
Boy (surprised): "Our heart? Can it talk?"
Man: "It has a voice…close your eyes…get silence…and you can hear it speak to you…"
(Earnestly looking the boy nods and closes his eyes then): "I hear nothing…"
Man (laughing a little amused): "Its not a real voice…its more…a feeling inside of you…"
(The boys face lights up again and smiling he opens his eyes): "Oh…do you mean it's that what's telling me we should go into that way?"
Man: "Haha…yeah…that's it Kaden….so you say this way?"
Kaden (nodding ambitious): "Yep…"
Man: "Then let's go…"

[We see how they walk along the way Kaden had showed. The Camera follows the two and finally we can the see the man in whole, but only his back. It's a strong man, a tall guy…and he holds the little boys hand tightly…

(Close-up angle to Jay) Jay: (step forward) Amber?
Amber: (slowly looks up. Camera zooms up to show a tear stained face) What is it Jay?
Jay: (moving closer to the bed situated in the centre of the room) I came her to say I'm sorry. Look Amber, I'm sorry for what I said to you. I never meant for it to come out the way it did.

(Close-up of Amber drying her eyes with her hands. After three times of drying her eyes, Amber looks up to Jay)

Amber: (patting the bed as an indication for Jay to sit) I know you are, but, I can't help it Jay.
Jay: (sighing) Amber you have no idea how hard it is knowing you're thinking of another guy while with me! (Voice slightly rising)
Amber: (standing up; over the shoulder shot of Amber from Jay's shoulder) Well, Jay I can't help it. Bray is the father of my son and the first person I ever loved! (Amber's own voice rising)

(Jay closes his eyes at the mention of these words; taking his time he slowly opens them to face Amber)

Jay: (moving forward) You have to move on...Bray is gone Amber, gone.

Amber: (falling back onto bed with her hands placed over her face obstructing her features) Jay! Do you think I don't know that! I know he is gone and is never coming back, I...I...Just miss him. But, you're right I have you now. You have helped me a lot.

"Does any of them know, how complicated that is without any power and for all without light in an almost dark room?"
[The room is really dark, only lightened up with a big candle, what's giving not half enough light for him to see his own hands. But stubborn he works on

Scene 10

[Now the camera wanders over to Ellie's and Jacks room, it's a pretty nice room, a laptop is standing on a big desk, and some books are laying round on it. But the centre of the room is a huge bed with a transparent canopy over it. Ellie just comes out of the bathroom, beside their room, brushing through her long blond hair

Ellie: "So what we are going to do tonight"
(With a slanting grin Jack comes close her and put his hands on her waist) "Uhm…what about…ehmmm…cooking?" (Amused Ellie grins back) "Cooking? And what, when I am not hungry"
(He raises his eyebrows, then he smiles evilly, letting his hand swiftly struggle down the strap of her nightdress and kisses her now naked shoulder softly): "That would be quiet a shame…" (Sighing Ellie closes her eyes as he goes on kissing her neck up to her ear, as he arrived there he breathes intimately in her ear) "And? Hungry?"
(Pulling his shirt high and pushing him towards their bed): "Yes…very hungry indeed…"

[They met in a steaming kiss and vanish under the blanket…

Scene 11

[Camera moves down the hall to one of the smaller rooms, it has a single bed pushed against the far wall, a desk on the other side of the room, Lottie is sat on a chair in the middle of the room with Brady on her lap and Darryl is facing them with a sketch book and pencil

(Ebony and Lex look up at the three people and stand up)

Scene 13

[The Camera enters the old library of town, in the floors of the hundreds of books it's quietly and the silence is filling the air like a big cloud of mystic. We see people in dark coloured clothes, dark violet tones, dark blue, and dark green. A beautiful woman in a violet and black dress sits down on a soft pillow, she lights up some candles around her. Her long dark hair shines softly in the candles light; she closes her eyes and sighs silently. It's to see something heavy is weighing on her mind and it's like she is searching some strength inside of her. Slowly she closes her brown almond eyes and starts to mediate…

Scene 14

[The camera enters an old warehouse; we see a table in the middle where Ebony, Lex and some other people are sitting at, around them are different areas closed off by curtains

Ebony: (Leans forward on the table) "Who are you?"

Ebony: (Sits back in her chair so does Guy 1) "Mallrats"
Guy 1: "The newest Tribe"
Ebony: "Five months"
Guy 1: (Sits back in his chair) "So what are you doing here?"

Lex: "So you're the ones who are fighting the Krul tribe"
Guy 1: "Yes"
Ebony: "You don't seem to of done much damage"
Guy 1: "And let me guess you could have done better"
Ebony: "Sure would"
Girl 1: "This is not getting us anywhere" (Looks at Lex) "What do you want?"
Lex: (Remembers the girl) "Hey you're the one"
Girl 1: "Yes"
Ebony: "As you were saying this is getting us no where"

Trudy: (Laughs a bit) "I'm sure it is"
Darryl: (Heads for the door) "I'll leave you to your book"

Scene 16

[We are in Ruby's room now, it's a small room, with only a single bed, a rocking chair and a mirror with a little table under it on which she put all the things that were left to her back from her past- which is not very much. Only some jewellery, a diary and some make up. Ruby sits in the rocking chair, staring out of the window

FLASHBACK

Jay: "This building is empty…we could take it for living
Ebony: (muttered) "Oh…wonderful…school…."
Ruby: (rolls eyes) "If you don't like it Ebony, find something better!"
Ebony: "Are you trying to challenge me, missy?"
Ruby: "What if I am?"

[Slade goes between them

Slade: "Hey, hey ladies…we need to stick together now…we all have nothing left anymore as ourselves!" Ruby: (laughed ironic) "Oh…then the future looks very bright…if a murder is all that's left to me…"

[The others looked confused

Ruby: "Yeah…she has tried to kill me! Why you don't tell them Ebony?"
Ebony: "Ts, ts, ts…that's the difference between us…if you would have tried to kill me….then I would have used that to make you do what I want…but you're too dramatic…hey…I almost tried to kill everyone in here…and? What do they do? Nothing!!!"

Slade (going through his hair): "Hi Ruby…"
Ruby (trying to be cool): "Slade…"
Slade: "What are you doing?"
Ruby (letting her eyes roll): "I am having sex with my boyfriend, and you?"
(Slade blushes): "See Ruby I know you're still hurt…but….I really…like you…can't we be friends?"

[The blonde looks up at him, his brown eyes shine pleading and a moment she looks like she's tempt to be nice, but then her face straightens up again

Ruby: "Not now Slade…how shall we be? Think at Ebony…she hates me…and so I hate her…"
(He shrugs the shoulders): "I know…but she has her friends as well…"
Ruby (getting angry): "So that's the point…Ebony is out with Lex again and you're jealous…
Slade (hesitating): "No…I…"
Ruby: "Oh shut up…and now what? I hope she betrays you with him…then you might now how that feels …GOOD NIGHT SLADE!!!" (She holds open the door and sheepishly he vanishes)

[After closing the door she sinks down on her bed. Her eyes are wavering with tears

Ruby: (mumbling) "He'll never do that to me again…no, no, no…"

(Hammering onto her pillow she starts to cry silently…

Ruby: "No, no, no, noooooooo……"
