293. Wormhole Dreams - Leslie

• FADE IN:


• INT. EMPTY HALLWAY - NIGHT


• ELI wanders down a Victorian hallway, lights flickering against dark carpet and ornately detailed wallpaper.


• He passes a slightly open door and stops, hearing faint music playing.


• He walks past, then walks back to the door and steps through into another hallway.


• INT. SECOND HALLWAY - NIGHT


• The door opens into smaller, dark hallway.


• Eli walks cautiously, following the music.


• He turns a corner and finds a brightly-lit hallway running perpendicular to hallway he is in.


• It is flooded with people in corsets and fishnet, flowing dresses and piercings.


• They race through the hallway tearing wallpaper from the walls, smashing lamps, destroying without a sound.


• Eli backs away, heading back down the dark hallway.


• FIONA, a small, powerfully built woman in a beautifully crafted corset and jeans pulls away from the group and looks down the hallway, directly at Eli.


• FIONA
• Join us! Isn't this a beautiful dream?


• She laughs and he moves towards her, enchanted.


• She waves him on and he enters the stream of chaos, carried along by the wave.


• He laughs at the abandon.


• Fiona turns to him.


• FIONA
• You should be careful. You shouldn't be here.


• Eli turns to her, confused.


• ELI
• What? You just said this was a dream?


• She stares at him.


• FIONA
• Did I?


• Then she laughs again.


• Laughing she turns to him.


• FIONA
• Run away, before the demons sing. Run away.


• She smiles sweetly.


• Eli tries to fight his way out of the crowd.


• They turn on themselves, compressing smaller and smaller, the hallway sucking in around them, Eli now at the center.


• He struggles to free himself, but it is too late, the crowd seeming to devour itself as the hallway melts in.


• FIONA
• Isn't this a wonderful dream? I told you to run!


• And then there is nothing, the room sucking into darkness, leaving an ever expanding blackhole and in the distance a faint singing.


• FADE TO BLACK.
