LIFE AFTER EARTH

Sil pauses for a moment.

They stop walking. They both look awkward and upset.

She glances at him and then turns to leave. He turns around and walks back through the field, looking vaguely stunned. He walks into the woods. He reaches a stream.

He crosses it. He walks along it on the other side. He walks along it for a little while until he reaches a part where a small metal shed is visible. He crosses the stream. He jogs down the road…

…until he reaches David and Tanya

Tanya rushes up behind David.

They reach the woods and walk into it. They walk a little ways. They go across the creek. They walk past the shed. They hear clanging coming from it.

They walk around to the door and see that it’s locked from the outside.

For a few moments there is no answer. Then they hear a loud scraping noise. Everyone looks surprised and concerned, especially David.

They turn with the stream and continue to walk along it. They see a giant fallen over tree. Tanya runs over to it.

David watches. George begins to follow Tanya up the tree. David reluctantly climbs on and follows. Tanya finds a large branch to perch on on.

David regains his balance. He looks embarrassed. David slowly lowers himself so that he

Tanya climbs down and walks towards them.

He climbs down. He lands on the ground. He cautiously walks out into the light. He crosses the road and walks into the woods.

He walks into the field. He walks a little ways in, shivering from the cold night air.
