Starts with black screen. Fades in white words: "Zombie, Zombie". Fades to black. A high-pitched female scream is heard. Pause for two seconds. Begin scene 1.
SCENE 1: Courtney's bedroom. Neat room with sun shining in window above and to the right of the bed. Carpeting. Walls are green and the blanket on the bed is a random SINGLE color. On the bedside table is a flashlight and a high-heeled shoe. The blanket is a single color, NOT a pattern. Courtney is in pink pajamas and is laying in the bed when the scene starts. Backround sound -> birds tweeting.
COURTNEY wakes up.
COURTNEY sits up and yawns.
COURTNEY: It's gonna be a great day today! The sun is shining, the birds are singing, the little brother is still sleeping--
KYLE: *muffled by walls* MOMMMMMM!!!!!
COURTNEY: Uhh, scratch that last one...
COURTNEY goes into the kitchen.
SCENE 2: Kitchen in Courtney's house. Sunlight shines in windows over the sink. Sink is in the counter, where Courtney's mom is preparing Pop Tarts. Courtney's mother is in a fashionable buisiness type outfit. Courtney is dressed in jeans and an orange T-shirt, sitting at the table and eating Pop Tarts. The table has three chairs at it and at the place next to Courtney is a plate of Pop Tarts and some toy soldiers. Next to the counter is a door. Kyle is wearing a red shirt with long sleeves and a pair of jeans.
KYLE walks in the door and drops the newspaper he was carrying on the table before sitting down at the table.
COURTNEY picks up the newspaper.
COURTNEY [reading headline]: Girl gets [she gasps] eaten by zombie!
KYLE is making weird noises and playing with the toy soldiers.
COURTNEY reads the article and ignores KYLE, with a very surprised expression on her face. She gasps occasionally.
COURTNEY'S MOTHER [as Courtney reads]: So you heard the news, huh?
COURTNEY'S MOTHER sets the Pop Tarts on the table and takes the empty seat as she speaks.
COURTNEY'S MOTHER: Apparently its some mystery what's under the zombie's hood.
COURTNEY: I bet I could figure it out!
COURTNEY'S MOTHER: after school, dear.
KYLE: Do you actually believe that there's a real zombie?
COURTNEY'S MOTHER: Yeah, I do. It says that the article was written by Thelma Woodlin, and I trust Thelma.
KYLE [sarcastic]: Oh. I'm SO scared. Mom, can I have a piece of garlic?
COURTNEY'S MOM ignores him.
COURTNEY [annoyed]: Cut it out, Kyle. And garlic only works on vampires.
COURTNEY puts down her half-finished Pop Tart, grabs the newspaper article, and stands up.
COURTNEY: I've got to go see Brad!
