WELCOME TO THE GREY

SCENE #1: FLASHBACK 7 MINUTES AGO: THE WHITE HOUSE

This is Dodds reporting... we have lightfoot.

SCENE #2: THE WHITE HOUSE PRESIDENT’S OFFICE

WESLEY DODDS AND A SECOND MEMBER OF THE SANDMEN ARE FIRING AT THE VINES ALONG WITH TWO OF THE PRESIDENTS SECURITY PERSONNEL. A VINE BREACHES THROUGH THE WINDOW BEHIND THEM. DODDS GRABS THE PRESIDENT AND SLIPS A GAS MASK OVER HER MOUTH. THE OTHER SANDMAN DOES THE SAME TO ONE OF THE SECURITY GUARDS, THE OTHER IS HIT BY A VINE AND HIS FLESH BEGINS TO ROT AWAY AS IT FORCES IT’S WAY DOWN HIS THROAT.

WESLEY DODDS:
Repeat, light-foot has been located. We have the president.

SANDMAN #1:

THEY FLICKER AND DISAPPEAR JUST AS THE VINE MOVES FORWARD, SLICING THROUGH THIN AIR IN THE EXACT SAME SPOT THEY HAD BEEN IN.
