SCENE 1 – SPIKER’S DEATH

THE SUN IS SETTING, A DEAD BODY IS SURROUNDED BY POLICE CONES AND SIRENS ARE HEARD IN THE BACKGROUND

FORBES:

This is a case that should be left alone.

BANKS:

You know we can’t do that, we’re paid to solve this shit.

FORBES:

You know what this means right?

BANKS:

Yeah, damn.

FORBES IS SEEN WALKING AWAY, BANKS FOLLOWS HIM

BANKS:

He’s back in town, we need to find him.

FORBES:

Why?

BANKS:

Because I said so, anymore questions?

FORBES:

Someone’s on his period.

FORBES WALKS INTO THE DISTANCE, THE SCENE FADES TO BLACK.

SCENE 2 – BRUTE’S EMERGENCE

BRUTE IS SEEN SPEAKING TO HIS GOONS IN THE BACKGROUND, A MAN IS TIED TO A CHAIR

BRUTE:

So you’re the little shit that tried to jump me?

SPIKER:

No.
BRUTE:
Where's my goddamn money?
SPIKER:
I don't have your money.

BRUTE:

Wrong answer.

PUNCHES ARE HEARD WHILE BLOOD SPLATTERS ONTO THE GROUND

SPIKER:

Alright! It's at...

BRUTE WALKS TOWARDS THE CAMERA AND IT ZOOMS INTO HIS EYES, IT SEGUES INTO THE DETECTIVE’S OFFICE.

SCENE 3 - LATE

FORBES IS SEEN STANDING OUTSIDE A HOUSE AND WAITING FOR FORBES

FORBES:
Hurry up man, we're late.
BANKS:
Yeah, give me a sec.

THEY ARE THEN SEEN IN THE OFFICE WAITING AT THEIR DESKS. THEY RECEIVE A NOTIFICATION ASKING THEM TO RESPOND TO AN ONGOING MATTER.

SCENE 4 – REALITY

BRUTE IS STANDING IN AN ABANDONED AREA WITH A BRIEFCASE, HE SENDS A TEXT TO BANKS WITH HIS LOCATION, WE SEE THE SUN DIPS AND BANKS APPEARS

BRUTE:

Are you just going to stand there?

FORBES:

(Into communication device)

He's here.

BANKS:

(Into communication device)
Okay, I'm coming.

FORBES IS SEEN WALKING TO BRUTE, HIS BODYGUARDS COME TOWARDS FORBES AND RAISES THE GUN. 

BANKS:

(Stops time)

BANKS DISARMS THE BODYGUARDS AND COLLAPSES THE BODYGUARDS. FORBES GOES TO A SAFE LOCATION.

BRUTE:
What’s this voodoo shit you’re doing, where’s my gun?

BANKS:

You used to be the kingpin, looks like there’s a new boss in town.

BRUTE LUNGES TOWARD BANKS AND PUNCHES HIM IN THE FACE, HE CONTINUES TO JAB AT BANKS, HE CLICKS HIS FINGERS AND THE SCENE STOPS.

BRUTE:

The hell is going on?

FORBES:

Alright, watch out this time, he’s going to try and grab you.

BANKS:

No shit, Sherlock.

FORBES:

Take him out at the knees, then hit him in the centre of the chest.

BANKS:

Will that kill him?

FORBES:

No, he’ll just be unconscious.

BRUTE:

Consulting the only one with a brain at your firm?

BANKS:

(Laughs at BRUTE)

BRUTE:

You only have the body bro, can’t do anything without the smarts.

BANKS:

(Looks at BRUTE)

 FORBES:

Don’t listen to him, knock him out.

BRUTE:

He’s going to realise that you’re dead weight soon, he’ll ditch your ass.

BANKS:

He has one thing you don’t: loyalty.

BANKS CONTINUES TO BEAT BRUTE AND HE EVENTUALLY HITS BANKS

FORBES:

Are you not going to hit his neck?

BANKS:

Nah screw that shit, this guy is about to get murdered.

AN EPIC BRAWL ENSUES, BRUTE GETS SOME JABS AT BANKS AND BANKS CLICKS AND STOPS TIME. HE HAS ONE FINAL HIT ON BRUTE AND BRUTE FALLS TO THE GROUND

BANKS:

It’s over now.

BRUTE:

You don’t have the balls to kill me.

BANKS:

(Raises gun)

Try me.

A GUNSHOT IS HEARD AND BRUTE FALLS TO THE GROUND, FORBES APPEARS AND PATS BANKS ON THE BACK

FORBES:

It’s done now, the threat’s gone.

BANKS:

It’s funny how we spend our lives looking for murderers and today, I’m that person.

FORBES:

Cocky shit got what he deserved.

BANKS:

Yeah he did, listen, thanks for your help man I-

FORBES:

Don’t sweat it.

BANKS:

Thanks man.

THEY ARE SEEN WALKING AWAY FROM THE AREA AND INDISTINCT CONVERSATION IS HEARD.

BANKS:

Well, I guess I’ll see you at work tomorrow

FORBES:

Yeah, business as usual.

THEY SHAKE HANDS AND GO SEPARATE WAYS, THE CAMERA GOES BACK TO BRUTE. WE SEE THAT A CHEMICAL HAS SPILT INTO HIS MOUTH AND HIS EYELIDS OPEN SLOWLY. A PULSE IS EMANATING FROM HIS SKIN, HE HAS ACQUIRED SPECIAL POWERS. HE IS UP ALMOST INSTANTANEOUSLY.

BRUTE HAS NOW ACQUIRED POWERS SIMILAR TO BANKS.

BRUTE:

Oh it’s on now.
