the amazing Crystalline Green Flying Machine

a black title card appears: "Crystalline Green Flying Machine"

the time is 2:13pm

steam rises from the hood of a broken down car

a teenage boy is leaning on the hood

he is his mid teens and is now walking through the forest on a park trail alone, he is NATE, he is wearing a zip up hoodie, red tshirst and regular denim jeans.

all is silent

he walks along a small pond as the light reflects on his face, he sits down on the grass and doesnt really enjoy a calm peaceful moment. . . something is up

4:45pm
its getting darker and he is walking through a country field by himself still, looking left and right, spinning a 360 and putting his hands in his pockets, he sees something among the hills

it sort of glides still

the object is bright green but silent

he runs and hides behind an old barn

looks out

the crystalline green machine is slowly lowering itself down into the hills, its hardly noticeable at all, just a speck in the horizon

he runs back into the forest

he enters a clearing

Nate
HELLO!


all is silent

Nate
CAN ANYBODY HEAR ME?


he sits down in a random patch amongst the forest

title card - 6:43pm

over the black title card we hear him

NATE V.O
oh shiiiiiit



CUT TO: him now running through the forest

we can hear the machine coming closer to him

he breaks out of the forest and is now out onto the field

the machine is VERY close behind him

he JUMPS down behind a piece of machinery

as it passes by him and heads off into the distance.

we end this part with him laying on his chest beside an old piece of machinery his hands almost covering his face, he is very dirty now, but not as dirty as what has yet to happen.

he collapses onto the ground

A BLACK TITLE CARD - "6:45pm"

FEMALE V.O
at this current broadcast time
we leave you with an estimated
6.9 million dead in the western front
alone-


he sits up, its very dark out now

we can see around in the dark blue surrounding him, everything is either blue or black except for the glowing missile like object heading over him by about a mile above him, its just like a slow moving speck against the dark sky

he pulls himself together, wipes his face just to smear more dirt on it than there already was

wipes his pants

his shirt

his back

and his hair

he is now walking along a country back road

we hear his feet making crunching sounds in the gravel road

then he stops

we hear the same crunching sound spread out 45 times more. . . coming towards him

he jumps into the ditch and into the bushes below the road and crawls into the upright fetal shock position

we hear the crunching sounds coming closer followed by vocal sounds

the crunching turns into marching boots, the vocal sounds are jogging

Vocal
Hei, Hei, Hei, Hei


(every step we hear a "Hei")

he creeps lower into the bushes

the sound comes closer

Vocal
HEI HEI HEI HEI


the sound and marching soldiers comes, then goes into the distance

theyre gone for sure

he RUNS down the country road

BLACK TITLE CARD "3:47am"

we see Nate, Asleep in a barn amongst the hay, it is still dark but more of a light blue kind of dark

he looks around and we get POV shots from him, looking at the various bails of hay and metal devices attached to the barn walls

EXT BARN - Morning
he steps out, muddy as hell, and twice as suspicious

he creeps around the barn, looking around the corner, once. . . twice. . . then BOLTS to the patio door of the farmhouse

INT FARMHOUSE
its quiet. . .

the patio door SLAMS OPEN

he steps in, it SLAMS SHUT

the house is eerily quiet. not one sound

he goes to the sink and begins to clean himself off in a very archaic style with dishsoap and a cloth

he enters the washroom, and we hear a flush then a faucet

the washroom door opens slowly, he peers out into the quiet hallway

Nate
Hu. . Hello?


its all silent

he creeps down the hallway to the end bedroom

he opens the door

and hears a SCREAM

the door beside him FLIES OPEN and a FARMER holding a CLEAVER stands there

FARMER
Git the FUCK off MA PROPERTY!

Nate
im so sorry sir. . its just there was this thing and these
guys running and i needed somewhere to go and

Farmer

that, but i dont

Nate

Farmer

the farmers family is hiding in the side room

Farmer

nate starts backing down the hallway

Nate

Farmer
Five. . .Four. .


we hear a whistle when. . .

the farmers BEDROOM EXPLODES INWARD with pieces of WOOD and DEBRIS as nate fuckin RUNS outta there

the screams can be heard as he runs out of the house and across the field, and into the forest

Hmm, sounds interesting. What exactly is the green machine though? Doesn't it remind you a little too much of War of the Worlds?

PS: Is tthis adding to our original idea?
