FADE IN:

INT. TEENAGE GIRL'S ROOM - NIGHT

We pan around the room as the MUSIC RISES and CREDITS ROLL. As
we slowly zoom around the room, we see a radio blaring on. News
reporters talk as the CREDITS continue. Different magazines,
toys, and books can be seen everywhere.

REPORTER
(from radio)
Tomorrow will mark the second anniversary of the Flight 180
crash, which killed nearly forty students and four teachers. The
only known survivor of that horrifying accident, Clear Rivers,
was killed one year ago tomorrow as well, after friend Kimberly
Corman predicted a soon to come car accident, which killed
nearly more than thirty victims itself. The remaining six
survivors of that incident not including Kimberly and Officer
Thomas Burke, were killed one year ago, all involved in gruesome
and freak accidents. All including Evan Lewis, fifteen-year-old
Tim Carpenter, his mother, Nora Carpenter, Kat Jennings, Rory
Peters, Clear Rivers and Eugene Dix. Besides Clear herself, the
only survivor of the Flight 180 incident, Alex Browning, was
killed a few months later after the accident, after the brick
from a close building became dislodged and impaled Browning in
the face, killing him instantly. More news on the Flight 180
story will soon come.

The CAMERA stays on the radio as a hand suddenly reaches over
and shuts it off. As we pull up, we see CAITLIN PERKINS, a young
girl of seventeen, sits at a desk, typing on a computer. She is
very pretty and smart, and as we can see, very busy. She reads a
set of textbooks and juggles a pencil on her hand. She sighs and
leans back. A fan can be seen in the background, blowing
everything in sight. Piles of papers go flying everywhere.
Caitlin turns around and sees them.

CAITLIN
Shit...

Caitlin walks over and grabs the papers as fast as she can. She
opens a drawer and sets them inside. As she quickly turns
around, she is face-to-face with the fan, and it does not have a
cover on it. The wind blows Caitlin's hair. She sighs and
unplugs the fan's cord from the wall. She stands up and looks
down at a picture of herself standing next to a young boy. She
picks it up and smiles. A knock on the door can be heard and she
sets the picture down. She sits back down and continues on her
computer.

CAITLIN
Come in.

The door swings open and her father, MR. PERKINS, walks in. He
holds two suitcases and one large duffel bag. He sets them down
on the floor as Caitlin's mother walks in, MRS. PERKINS.

MR. PERKINS
Well, I think we have everything, wouldn't you agree?

CAITLIN
Yeah...Sorry, dad for putting you through all this trouble.

MRS. PERKINS
It's no trouble at all, honey. Your father could use the
exercise.

Mrs. Perkins pats her husband on the back as Caitlin laughs.

MR. PERKINS
Are you sure you have everything? Toothbrush? Toothpaste?

CAITLIN
Yes, dad, I have everything I need. I'll only be gone for a
week. It's no big deal.

MR. PERKINS
No big deal? Honey, it's nearly five-hundred miles away.

CAITLIN
In other words, I'll miss you, too.

Mr. Perkins smiles as he walks over and hugs her. Mrs. Perkins
joins them.

MRS. PERKINS
You don't want to be late. The bus leaves in thirty minutes.

Caitlin grabs the suitcases as her father grabs the duffel bag.
She hugs and kisses her mother.

MRS. PERKINS
You have a fun trip, okay?

CAITLIN
I will, mom. I'll miss you.

MRS. PERKINS
I'll miss you, too.

Caitlin smiles as she walks out of the door, her father
following her all the way.

EXT. HIGHWAY ROAD - RAINING - NIGHT
We watch as cars and trucks go passing by. We follow one car in
particular, and we slowly pull into the windshield, which is
covered with rain. The windshield wipers push it away.

INT. CAR - HIGHWAY ROAD - RAINING - (CONT.)

Inside, Caitlin sits in the passenger's seat while her father
drives. There is complete silence between them. Caitlin reaches
over and turns on the radio. It stops on soft, light music.
Silence...

MR. PERKINS
Are you sure you want to do this?

CAITLIN
Dad, please-

MR. PERKINS
Caitlin, honey, I just want to know what's best for you.

CAITLIN
Dad, I know what I want. And I want to go to New York. And it's
only for seven days.

MR. PERKINS
Seven long days.

CAITLIN
Dad, I get what you're saying. I'd miss me, too.

Mr. Perkins holds his daughter's hand. She smiles.

MR. PERKINS
Is Shane coming with you?

CAITLIN
Dad, don't do this-

MR. PERKINS
I just want to know if he's going with you.

CAITLIN
Yes, he's going with me.

Mr. Perkins takes a very deep breath.

CAITLIN
What?

MR. PERKINS
I just want what's best for you.

CAITLIN
Shane is a good guy, dad, you just never gave him a chance. I
really like him.

MR. PERKINS
I'm sure you do, honey, but I still think James is the one for
you.

CAITLIN
Dad, there is no way in the world that I will date a loser like
James.

MR. PERKINS
Caitlin!

CAITLIN
What!? You have never had the chance to know him! He may seem
like the perfect guy on the outside, but on the inside he's a
nasty little pervert who won't leave me alone!

MR. PERKINS
That is not true. I have been working with his father for
eighteen years, and I have never seen James act like that.

Caitlin sighs and looks out the window.

CAITLIN
(whisper)
Whatever.

Mr. Perkins looks at his daughter and shakes his head. He looks
back out onto the road. Suddenly, a large car zooms in front of
them! Mr. Perkins slams down his breaks as Caitlin holds onto
her seatbelt. Mr. Perkins hand slams down on Caitlin's chest. He
honks his horn as the car disappears as fast as he can down the
road. They both breathe hard.

MR. PERKINS
Are you okay?

Caitlin breathes hard. She slowly looks at her father.

CAITLIN
I'm fine...Fine...

EXT. SHADOW RIDGE BUS STATION - LATER

Many adults and teenagers walk around. Mr. Perkins car parks in
front of the station and Caitlin steps out with her two
suitcases. Mr. Perkins steps out and walks over to his daughter.
He holds her duffel bag. He sets it on the ground and they both
look at eachother.

CAITLIN
I'm gonna miss you, dad.

MR. PERKINS
I'm gonna miss you, too Caitlin.

They both smile and come together and hug. The look at eachother
and kiss. She smiles and grabs all of her bags.

MR. PERKINS
You sure you don't need help with that?

CAITLIN
Dad, I'll be fine, okay? Bye!

Mr. Perkins smiles and waves. He walks back inside the car and
drives off. Another car pulls up to the same spot where Mr.
Perkins was.

INT. SHADOW RIDGE BUS STATION - LATER

Caitlin walks through the crowd, making her way to the
information desk. She holds her tickets in her hand. She looks
around for anyone she knows. She walks up to the information
desk, where an old lady stands, typing at a computer.

CAITLIN
Hello. Could you tell me where the train to New York would be
headed.

WOMAN
Of course. It's that way, Route 180.

Caitlin stays silent. She sighs.

CAITLIN
Thank you.

Caitlin frowns and walks off. She shrugs it off and walks
towards the outside bus. Suddenly, she turns a corner and runs
straight into JAMES ELLIS, a young boy of about her age. As she
runs into him, he drops all of his bags and drops a stack of
papers. She doesn't recognize him and bends down and helps him.

CAITLIN
Oh, I'm so sorry-

She looks up and sees him. She drops the papers and stands up.
So does he.

JAMES
Caitlin...

CAITLIN
James...? I didn't know you were coming to New York...

JAMES
Are you kidding, Manhattan is my town.

Silence.

CAITLIN
I got to go.

Caitlin walks off and James follows.

JAMES
Caitlin, I'm sorry for whatever I did. I admit I was an asshole.

CAITLIN
A complete dick.
JAMES
Okay, I get it...We're still friends, you know-

Caitlin stops and turns around.

CAITLIN
Are we?

Silence. James sighs and stands still. Caitlin walks off.

JAMES
Look, I'm sorry, okay? What can I do to make it up to you?

CAITLIN
Stick that weed down your throat and leave me the hell alone.

As Caitlin continues to walk, James stands still. He looks up
and sighs. He covers his eyes and walks towards the bus. We go
back to Caitlin, who looks around, trying to find her bus. As
she looks around, she sees her best friend, HAYLEY CRANE, a very
smart and pretty girl of eighteen. They both notice and run
towards eachother, smiling and hugging.

HAYLEY
Hey, girl!

CAITLIN
Hey! So, do you know exactly where the bus is?

HAYLEY
Yeah, it's this way, follow me.

They both smile and walk a different way.

HAYLEY
So...Is Shane coming with you?

CAITLIN
Of course he is, Hayley. Why wouldn't he?

HAYLEY
I was just wondering how badly your dad took it...

Caitlin bites her lip.

CAITLIN
Not well at all. But he wants what's best for me and what's best
for me is-

HAYLEY
(o.s.)
James!?

Caitlin looks at Hayley, who looks at James, who is talking to
his best friend, ANTHONY CARTER, a handsome boy of eighteen.

HAYLEY
I didn't know James was coming on this trip.
CAITLIN
It was a surprise to me, too. I swear, if he lands one hand on
me, I'll-

HAYLEY
Oh, I'd hate to see you in court one week from now running
against James Ellis for sexual harassment.

CAITLIN
(rolls eyes)
God, I hope not.

HAYLEY
Here's our bus...

Hayley and Caitlin make their way outside and walk towards the

EXT. BUS - SHADOW RIDGE BUS STATION - (CONT.)

Hayley and Caitlin laugh at a joke as they turn and see SHANE
POTTER, a young, handsome boy of eighteen. He turns and sees
Caitlin. He smiles and walks over to her. They both put down
their bags and hug. As they slowly pull away, they look into
eachother's eyes and kiss eachother. Hayley rolls her eyes and
smiles. As she looks around herself, she sees her boyfriend,
JEREMY TURNER, a very handsome, smart young boy of nineteen.
They both spot eachother and run towards eachother, smiling and
giggling. As Hayley runs towards him, he picks her up and kisses
her.

JEREMY
God, I missed you!

HAYLEY
I thought I wouldn't see you until next month!

JEREMY
I got out early...

HAYLEY
Good behavior?

JEREMY
I guess so...

They smile and kiss.

HAYLEY
So, how was it at your parent's house, getting around all those
obstacles?

JEREMY
It was tough...I'm just glad that my mom didn't freak out as
much as my dad did. He busted my ass.

HAYLEY
How much crack was on you, honey?

JEREMY
This much!
Jeremy grabs Hayley's behind as she gasps. She hugs and kisses
him.

SHANE
Looks like they're doing okay...

CAITLIN
Yeah, it looks like it.

Shane looks into Caitlin's eyes. He smiles.

CAITLIN
I missed you so much.

SHANE
Well, I'm here now. And I will be for the next seven days.

They smile and kiss once again.

SERENA
(o.s.)
Hey! Hey!

They all turn and see Serena Reynolds running towards everybody.
She makes it just in time. She breathes hard. She is a very
pretty girl of seventeen.

SERENA
Am I late? Did I miss anything?

CAITLIN
No, you came just in time.

They both smile and hug.

CAITLIN
How have you been?

SERENA
Okay, I guess, how about you?

CAITLIN
(looks at Shane)
I'm doing excellent.

SERENA
Hey, Shane.

SHANE
Hey, Serena.

They all smile.

SERENA
Have you seen Adrian around?

CAITLIN
No, he hasn't shown up yet.

SERENA
Goddamnitt...He said he'd be here!

SHANE
I'm sure he'll make it.

SERENA
He better or I'll kick his ass and he knows it.

Caitlin rolls her eyes as James and Anthony walk out of the
building.

ANTHONY
(eyeing her)
Hey, Serena...

SERENA
Sorry, Anthony! I'm taken!

Anthony rolls his eyes as he high-fives with Shane. James looks
at Caitlin and smiles a friendly smile. Caitlin gives him the
finger as she turns back around to Shane. They both smile.

EXT. HIGHWAY ROAD - RAINING - NIGHT

We watch as all the cars go passing by. As we pull up, we see
Mr. Perkins' car driving slowly on the highway.

INT. CAR - HIGHWAY ROAD - RAINING - (CONT.)

Mr. Perkins smiles as he listens to the radio. He changes the
station to listen to the news.

REPORTER
(from radio)
Tomorrow will mark the second anniversary of the Flight 180
crash, which killed nearly forty students and four teachers. The
only known survivor of that horrifying accident, Clear Rivers,
was killed one year ago tomorrow as well, after friend Kimberly

MR. PERKINS
Jesus...

REPORTER
(cont.)
A memorial will be held for all victims tomorrow evening at 7:00
at the Mount Abraham High School auditorium. In other news-

Mr. Perkins turns off the radio and sighs. The rain continues to
pour as fast as it can. The windshield wipers try as hard as
they can do wipe the rain away. Mr. Perkins sighs as he reaches
down and grabs a cup of coffee from Starbucks. As he picks it
up, it quickly slips from his hand and falls on top of his
pants.

MR. PERKINS
Shit!

He looks around for a napkin, but can't find anything. Without
knowing, his car zooms all around the road. Cars honk at him,
but he doesn't notice. He looks up and finally gets a hold of
the wheel. He finally gets back on the right side of the road as
cars continue to honk at him. He waves his hand in the air to
signal them.

MR. PERKINS
(looking at his pants)
Jesus...

As he wipes his pants, we see a large propane truck making its
way right towards his car! Mr. Perkins looks up and tries to
slam down his breaks but can't!

MR. PERKINS
HOLY SHIT!

EXT. CAR - HIGHWAY ROAD - RAINING - (CONT.)

The propane car comes closer and closer to Mr. Perkins' car, and
soon, the two cars collide in a mass of dust and fire! Other
cars try and slam down their breaks but can't. As they slide
down on the wet road, the cars flip and land on top of the fiery
propane car! Many cars start to pile up, including two cop cars!
Explosions can be seen everywhere! Sirens can be heard in the
background as we pan up from the huge wreck.

EXT. BUS - SHADOW RIDGE BUS STATION - SAME

Everything is just they way we had last seen it. Anthony walks
around Caitlin and Shane. Serena looks around for her boyfriend,
Adrian, but she does not spot him anywhere. She walks over to
Caitlin once again.

SERENA
You still haven't heard anything from Adrian?

SHANE
We still don't know where he is.

CAITLIN
I'm sure he'll be here soon, Serena, along with Lance. You know
how those two are. They're probably smoking weed or sniffing
cocaine.

INT. CAR - HIGHWAY ROAD - RAINING - SAME

Inside a car is ADRIAN KING, a young boy of eighteen. He is very
handsome and smart. Sitting next to him is his best friend,
LANCE DUNCAN, a young crack head of the same age. Lance leans
back and pulls out a rolled up bag of weed.

ADRIAN
Hey, hey! I told you, no drugs in the car! If my dad smells this
shit I'm dead.

LANCE
Relax, Adrian, it's not drugs, just weed.

ADRIAN
Yeah, you should have specified.

Adrian rolls his eyes as he looks outside in the traffic.

ADRIAN
This is going to take forever.

Lance pulls out some cocaine from his pocket and sniffs a little
of it.

LANCE
Yeah, dude...She's probably cheating on you...

Adrian looks at Lance with a weird face and smacks him.

ADRIAN
Dude, I told you! No drugs!

Lance accidentally drops his cocaine and it falls all over the
ground.

LANCE
Oh, man...Look what you made me do, man...I dropped my
cocaine...

ADRIAN
Lance, will you just stop for once?

LANCE
Stop what?

ADRIAN
Being a crack head!

ADRIAN
You stop, dude...

Adrian looks at him once again and rolls his eyes.

ADRAIN
Blow me.

Lance looks outside and moves his head around.

LANCE
(whisper)
Sure thing, dude...
Adrian smacks Lance in the head and looks ahead in traffic.

ADRIAN
Great...

As he looks ahead of him, we see the same accident that took
place with Mr. Perkins. Police cars and fire trucks are
everywhere. A man points to another side of the road and Adrian
movies into that lane. He looks at his watch and smiles.

ADRAIN
Yes...

EXT. BUS - SHADOW RIDGE BUS STATION - SAME

The bus driver, an old woman in her late fifties walks out of
the bus and rounds up the kids.

DRIVER
Alright, everybody, the bus will be leaving in five minutes.
From then on, all you can do is wait patiently.

She walks back inside the bus as everyone socializes.

SERENA
Shit...

ADRIAN
(o.s.)
Serena!

Serena turns around and sees Adrian, holding his duffel bag and
running towards her, followed by a stoned Lance Duncan.

SERENA
Where the hell have you been? The bus leaves in five minutes?

ADRIAN
I'm sorry, baby. There was a huge accident near the side of the
road and they had a hold up.

SERENA
Well, whatever the excuse, I'm glad you're here. Come on, let's
go get a seat.

She grabs his hand and they both run inside the bus, laughing.
Shane looks over and sees Lance, who walks inside the bus as
well, hitting the walls as he does.

SHANE
He's wasted.

HAYLEY
He's completely stoned...

Caitlin laughs. Jeremy holds Hayley in his arms and he kisses
her neck.

CAITLIN
We better get on the bus.

SHANE
Alright. Let's get going, guys.

Caitlin walks inside the bus followed by Shane, Hayley, Jeremy,
Anthony, and James. They all get seats in the back. They all
seat with their boyfriends or girlfriends or best friends.
Caitlin sits with Shane.

DRIVER
Okay, everyone. Is everyone ready?

More than the characters we have met are on the bus. They all
nod or smile.

DRIVER
Okay, let's hit it.

As the driver sits down in her seat, a young girl, JUSTINE
BOREN, runs inside followed by her brother, DYLAN BOREN.

JUSTINE
Hold the bus! Please! Are we late? I'm so sorry.

DRIVER
It's fine. Just take your seats.

JUSTINE
Okay, thank you.

As Justine and Dylan take their seats, the bus starts, and they
go driving off into the

EXT. HIGHWAY ROAD - RAINING - (CONT.)

We watch as the bus takes off.

INT. BUS - HIGHWAY ROAD - RAINING - SECONDS LATER

All the kids talk and laugh loudly. An old woman looks over at
them and glares. Caitlin tries to stop from laughing.

CAITLIN
(to woman)
I'm sorry...

The woman turns around. The group laughs.

JEREMY
Freak show.

HAYLEY
Shh!

The woman turns around again.

HAYLEY
I'm sorry if these jerks are offending you, ma'am.
The woman huffs and turns back around.

ANTHONY
Jesus!

They all laugh. Caitlin looks outside and watches as all the
cars pass by her, like a zoom of speeding light. She sighs and
leans back. Everyone laughs. She closes her eyes slowly...she is
very tired... She leans back into her seat and sighs.

In front of the bus, the driver tries to get the rain off of the
windshield, but the wipers are moving very slow. She tries to
stop them and turn them on again, but it still doesn't work.

DRIVER
Christ...

She sighs and looks back at everyone. She smiles at their jokes
and gags. Lance pulls more cocaine out of his pocket and sniffs
it.

LANCE
You guys want some?

SHANE
No way.

ADRIAN
I think you've had enough.

LANCE
You can never have enough drugs, man...Just take a sniff...Come
on.

ADRIAN
No thanks. I've had to put up with this shit for the past half-
hour.

LANCE
Any takers?

Silence.

JAMES
I'll take a try.

CAITLIN
What!?

ANTHONY
Dude, you're fucked, okay?

JAMES
What could it do?

LANCE
A lot...

Lance smiles and falls back into his seat. James comes close to
the cocaine and sniffs a little. He quickly drops it and
sneezes. Everyone laughs.

SHANE
(laughing)
That bad, huh, James?

JAMES
(wiping his nose)
Fuck you, man...You sniff that shit and you see how fucked you
are...

SHANE
No thanks, man. I've had enough.

ANTHONY
Now put that shit away before anyone sees it!

James opens a window and throws it out.

JAMES
Jesus...

They all laugh except James.

LANCE
I told you, man...It'll fuck you up.

James makes a face and wipes his nose more. He sneezes again.
They all back up.

SERENA
That's nasty, man.

Serena laughs and clangs onto Adrian. They come closer and kiss.
Caitlin looks at Shane and they both smile.

SHANE
You okay?

CAITLIN
Yeah...I guess I'm just nervous going to New York for the first
time. It just seems so far from home.

SHANE
It's only a week. You'll adjust.

CAITLIN
I hope so.

He smiles at her. They hold hands. The driver continues to try
and get the rain off of her windshield, but it still fails.
Suddenly, we see two large headlights appear in front of the
bus! The driver looks up and throws on the breaks as fast as she
can.

DRIVER
Hold on!

Everyone screams as the bus suddenly moves out of the way,
finally making its way back to right side of the road.

DRIVER
Is anyone hurt?

They all shake their heads as we hear a bunch of "no's" and "are
you kidding's". All the kids laugh.

LANCE
Jesus Christ, man...

They all continue to laugh. Caitlin looks outside and sees more
cars and trucks passing by. Suddenly, we see a small car pass by
the bus as fast as it can, trying to get in front of it, and it
does.

EXT. BUS - HIGHWAY ROAD - RAINING - (CONT.)

The small car makes its way in front of the bus and zooms faster
ahead of it. Inside we see a young teenage boy, smoking a
cigarette and listening to rock music.

INT. CAR - HIGHWAY ROAD - RAINING - (CONT.)

The boy sings along to the lyrics and continues to smoke. He
reaches down and grabs a CD case from the floor. He presses a
button and the music stops. A shiny new CD slides out of the CD
player of the car. He puts the CD in the case and sets it down
on the passenger's seat. As we watch it, we suddenly see it
slide off of the seat and fall on the ground, causing the CD to
fly out of the case. The boy looks down and frowns.

BOY
Shit...

As he leans down, to get it, he has no idea which way he is
going.

EXT. CAR - HIGHWAY ROAD - RAINING - (CONT.)

We watch as the small car slides from side-to-side of the road.
We suddenly see it slide to the very right of the road, making
its way right into a street light!

INT. CAR - HIGHWAY ROAD - RAINING - (CONT.)

The boy finally looks up and notices the streetlight.

BOY
Oh shit!

The boy slams down his breaks and suddenly starts to slide on
the wet, black road.

EXT. CAR - HIGHWAY ROAD - RAINING - (CONT.)

The car continues to slide, but still makes its way towards the
streetlight!

INT. CAR - HIGHWAY ROAD - RAINING - (CONT.)

The boy's eyebrows raise as he screams and covers his face.

EXT. CAR - HIGHWAY ROAD - RAINING - (CONT.)

The car suddenly slams into the pole and the car's windows
break. The boy is still alive, but covered in blood and bruises.
He sighs and then looks up to see the street light bust out and
fall right towards him and his car! The boy screams as the
broken streetlight falls on top of the car, crushing the boy and
spreading blood everywhere.

INT. BUS - HIGHWAY ROAD - RAINING - (CONT.)

All the kids continue to laugh as Caitlin looks outside the
window and suddenly sees the car and the outstretched
streetlight sticking out in the middle of the street!

CAITLIN
Look out!

The driver squints and suddenly sees the streetlight! She slams
on the breaks and all the kids go swirling to the ground!

EXT. BUS - HIGHWAY ROAD - RAINING - (CONT.)

The bus swirls to the other side of the road, missing the
streetlight by two feet. It slides down the road a little bit
more, then slides to its side. Everything is quiet. Suddenly, we
see another car making its way right towards the streetlight!
The driver looks up and screams! Then, the end of the
streetlight crashes through the windshield of the car and goes
right through the back of it, all covered in blood! The car
suddenly stops.

INT. BUS - HIGHWAY ROAD - RAINING - (CONT.)

Everyone sighs and gets back up.

ADRIAN
Jesus Christ! What the hell happened?

DRIVER
Anyone hurt?

The all shake their heads and stand back up. Caitlin looks out
through the back window and sees the wreck. She stands up and
runs to the front of the bus.

CAITLIN
(to driver)
Open the doors!

The driver opens the doors and Caitlin runs out of them,
followed by Shane, Hayley, Serena, Jeremy, Anthony, James, and
Lance. She runs to the wreck and suddenly stops dead in her
tracks, covering her mouth at the bloody scene.

CAITLIN
Oh my god...

Her friends join her and they all do the same. A large honk can
be heard in front of them. As they all look up, they see a large
truck making its way right towards them! They all run into the
many trees to the side of the road as the truck hits the young
boy's car, and the other car with the streetlight in it. The
truck honks once more and tries to put on its breaks, but fails.
We watch through the bus windows of all the people sighing and
breathing hard. Two large honks can be heard, and the driver and
all the passengers look behind them, seeing the large truck
making its way right towards them! They all scream as the truck
hits the side of the bus! A large fiery explosion can be seen,
and a large fire is suddenly started. Our heroes, on the ground,
look up at the wreck. They all stand up and cover their mouths.
Caitlin walks towards it slowly.

CAITLIN
My god...

SHANE
Caitlin! Look out!

Caitlin looks up to see a car making its way right towards her!
Shane runs into the road and pushes her out of the way, just as
the car hits Shane, and carries him all the way to the fiery
wreck!

CAITLIN
SHANE!

She stands up and runs towards the scene. Adrian grabs her and
holds her as she cries. His mouth drops open. Serena runs over
to Adrian and holds him. Caitlin tugs out of the grip of Adrian
as she runs towards the wreck. She stands still. Serena and
Adrian hold eachother quietly as they start to walk back towards
Caitlin. As they look towards the road, they see a car flip
through the air and make its way towards them. They don't move!
They both scream and try to run away right when the car lands on
top of them, impaling them instantly! Caitlin looks around and
screams yet again. James starts to freak out and run away.

ANTHONY
James! What the hell are you doing?!

JAMES
I'm getting the hell out of here!

As James runs away, we see an electricity pole spark rapidly.
The wire breaks and it falls onto the road, the rain suddenly
covering it. James turns around as he sees Anthony running
towards him. James looks down and sees the wire.

JAMES
Anthony! Look out!

As Anthony runs towards him, he steps on the wire and he falls
on the ground, the electricity shocking through his body! James
walks over to him and shakes him. Anthony is dead.

JAMES
ANTHONY!

He continues to shake the dead body as the electricity pole
comes crashing down, James unaware of what is happening. As he
stands up, the wooden pole crushes him through the head down.
Blood splatters everywhere. Sparks fly everywhere. Hayley runs
over to both of them, followed by Caitlin.

CAITLIN
We have to get the hell out of here! We have to call the police!

They all look up and see another car zooming towards them. They
all move out of the way as the bodies of James and Anthony
splatter everywhere! The car comes to a halt but suddenly flips
through the air, making its way towards Jeremy! Jeremy looks up
and moves out of the way.

JEREMY
Holy shit!

Jeremy tries to run towards the forest but slips and crawls
towards the side of the road. The car comes down and crushes
Jeremy's legs! He screams in pain as the car swerves down the
road, carrying Jeremy along with it.

HAYLEY
Jeremy!

The car comes closer and closer to the wreck, but not just yet.
Jeremy body is still dragged by the car, and as he looks up, he
sees the metal road railing headed right towards him! He screams
as his head is cut completely off! His body is dragged into the
fire, along with the car. Gas can be sliding down the road
towards Caitlin and Hayley.

HAYLEY
Jeremy! No!

Caitlin grabs Hayley as she tries to pull her back towards her.
The gas come closer and closer.

HAYLEY
Let...me...go!

Hayley runs away from Caitlin's grip and makes her way to the
wreck.

CAITLIN
Hayley!

HAYLEY
What!?

The gas makes its way to Hayley's foot, and the fire from the
wreck catches it on fire. Soon, Hayley is in flames! Caitlin
cries and screams!

CAITLIN
Oh god no, Hayley!

Hayley's burning body makes its way to the wreck, and it
suddenly disappears. Caitlin falls to the ground and starts to
cry again. Suddenly, another car comes zooming towards her! She
turns and screams! As she stands up, the car hits her, but she
is not dead, but nearly clinging on to the windshield wipers.
The car swerves and suddenly makes its way to the wrong side of
the road! Caitlin looks back and suddenly sees another car
making its way to the car she is on! She continues to scream and
close her eyes as we

CUT TO:

INT. BUS - SHADOW RIDGE BUS STATION - RAINING - NIGHT

Caitlin can be seen sleeping on the bus, until her eyes suddenly
jolt open! She screams and looks around. Everyone is still
here...

JUSTINE
(o.s.)
Hold the bus please! Are we late? I'm so sorry.

DRIVER
(o.s.)
It's fine, just take your seats.

JUSTINE
(o.s.)
Okay, thank you.

Caitlin stands up, crying.

CAITLIN
I have to get off this bus! We all have to get off of this bus
right now!

SHANE
Caitlin, what's wrong?

CAITLIN
There's gonna be a huge accident! The bus will crash and we're
all gonna die! We have to get off the bus!

SHANE
It's okay, Caitlin, calm down!

CAITLIN
NO! GET ME OFF OF HERE!

Caitlin runs towards the doors and runs outside, into the rain,
followed by Shane, Hayley, Anthony, Jeremy, Serena, Adrian,
Lance, and James. They all walks over to her and comfort her.

JAMES
Caitlin, are you okay?

CAITLIN
NO! I'm not! I just saw it!

HAYLEY
Saw what?

CAITLIN
Our deaths! I saw the bus! I saw the crashes! I saw our deaths!

SHANE
Calm down, okay?

CAITLIN
NO! Where are they? They were here, too!

SHANE
Who?

CAITLIN
Those two! The girl and boy! Where are they?

HAYLEY
The one's who were late?

CAITLIN
Yes! YES! You have to get them out of there! Please!

Silence. Caitlin cries as Shane holds her.

JEREMY
We have to get back on the bus, Caitlin.

CAITLIN
Forget about that! That bus is going to crash! I saw it! I saw
it all!

HAYLEY
Caitlin, calm down. What exactly did you see?

Caitlin cries and covers her eyes.

HAYLEY
Tell me what you saw, Caitlin...

Silence.

CAITLIN
I...I saw...I saw the bus...And there's going to be a huge
accident...Everyone's going to die...The bus crashed...And we
all died...

Everyone looks at eachother.

CAITLIN
I'm not making it up! The bus is going to crash and there is
going to be a huge fire! More cars are going to crash! There's
going to be a huge pile up!

Shane grabs hold of Caitlin until they are face-to-face. She
cries and looks down.

SHANE
Hey, Caitlin! The bus is not going to crash, okay? You have to
calm down...

CAITLIN
I saw it, Shane...I saw the bus...

SERENA
Caitlin, nothing bad is going to happen. Let's get back on the
bus.

CAITLIN
No! I'm not getting on that bus! You have to stay out here!
Please! I don't want you to die!

SHANE
Caitlin, listen to me, and look at me, okay? The bus is not
going to crash...

DRIVER
(o.s.)
Everything alright?

ANTHONY
Um...I don't think so...

DRIVER
Are you guys getting back on?

Anthony looks at Caitlin.

CAITLIN
Don't get on the bus, Anthony...Please...NO ONE GET ON THE BUS!

Silence.

ANTHONY
Just...go without us. We'll be fine.

The bus driver nods and closes the doors. We watch as drives
off.

LANCE
(still stoned)
What the hell, man...That was our fucking ride...!

CAITLIN
I'm sorry...

The all comfort her.

SERENA
It's okay, Caitlin...

HAYLEY
Yeah, I mean, how many time to you get the chance to go to
Manhattan? (Looks around) It's getting old, you know...

Silence. They all start to walk off when suddenly, from behind,
we see the same large truck come crashing into the side of the
bus! Causing fire and sparks! Other people at the station runs
towards it to help it, but the group stays still...

SHANE
Oh my god...

Caitlin cries into Shane's arms. The group cries and hugs
Caitlin.

JEREMY
You have got to be shitting me...

HAYLEY
It's okay, Caitlin...It's okay...

Caitlin cries as we watch everyone running around trying to help
and run towards the bus. We pull into the crying eye of Caitlin
as we slowly

FADE TO BLACK.
