DAVE
Hello
4. .3
PSYCHOLOGIST
Come in.
DAVE
I have been having these visions and
dreams of people dying these people I
have seen in my dreams are people that I
have tried to help them and when I help
things go wrong and they die I didn't
know who to talk to about this. The
people that I helps hearts stop beating
when I touch them I also keep seeing a
dark figure where ever I go but the first
time I had seen it was in my nightmare. I
feel as if something dark and evil has
latched on to me. I think that Im
the reason people are dying.
PSYCHOLOGIST
How long have these dreams been going on.
How many people have you seen die?
DAVE
I have been having them for a while but
it wasn't until today that someone I
touched died. I have seen articles of
people in my dreams having unexpected
deaths but I thought nothing of it until
now.
PSYCHOLOGIST
I don't think that you have anything to
do with the deaths I think your just
depressed. Depression causes people to
see and think things.
5. .4
Dave paces back and forth
DAVE
I’m telling you the truth I'm not lying
know its my fault. It scares me and makes
me feel guilty as I blame myself for
their deaths as it has to be my fault my
dreams and visions have come true and
innocent people are dying. I also se a
dark figure it looks like a grim reaper I
have only seen it two times but one was
in my dreams.
PSYCHOLOGIST
A shadow? Thats eccentric I have never
heard about it before. It must just be a
side effect of depression. I can give you
some medication but you need to stop
thinking this way the deaths of those
people aren't your fault you where just
in the wrong place at the wrong time.
DAVE
But what about my dreams the visions I
have been having the dark shadow.
The Psychologist comforts Dave.
PSYCHOLOGIST
I think that your depression is causing
you to create memories that where never
there that never happened. I can get you
some medication and hopefully that will
help. Your not harming your self are you.
Dave sees the reapers shadow behind the Psychologist.
Dave hears a voice.
VOICE
Kill Her
Dave shivers
DAVE
I have to go I don't want to hurt you.
