ACT III
INT. XANDER'S FIREHOUSE - MAIN ROOM
Maya is still trying to raise the group on the
cell phone.
MAYA
Xander? Jordy? Liv? Come on guys, I that
there's something that might be about to
attack...
An izithunzela breaks down the front door. Two
more spill in after the first.
MAYA
Crap!
EXT. CEMETERY
Liv swings her axe and another body part of the
izithunzela goes flying. As we pull back, we see
that Liv has pretty much chopped the izithunzela
into bits... bits that are still moving around.
Liv leans against a gravestone and pants.
LIV
Why do I feel like I'm in the middle of
a Monty Python movie?
A burst of static is heard.
MAYA
(filtered)
Liv!
Liv turns and sees the crushed cell/pda. Liv picks
it up and tries to make it work.
LIV
Maya?
All we hear is static. Liv takes off at full
speed.
INT. HALLWAY TO MORGUE
Xander and Jordy push a large vending machine in
front of the morgue doors. Pounding is heard on
the other side. Lucy is helping Audrey move down
the hallway.
XANDER
That should do it! Come on!
Xander takes off down the hallway.
AUDREY
Where are you going?
LUCY
Shouldn't we try to find a way to get
rid of those things?
Xander turns around and looks at the group.
XANDER
If they're attacking us here... Then
most likely they're also going to
attack...
LUCY
Liv...
JORDY
Maya...
XANDER
Let's go!
Everyone takes off down the hallway.
INT. XANDER'S FIREHOUSE - MAIN ROOM
Maya looks at the oncoming Izithunzela and runs
into the kitchen and dives behind the kitchen
island.
MAYA
(to cell)
Guys? A little help here would be nice.
She gets only static in return.
MAYA
Great.
She hears the izithunzela getting closer. She
looks up and sees a cast iron frying pan. She
grabs the pan and jumps to her feet. As she turns
she comes eye to eye with an izithunzela. She
screams and without thinking, embeds the frying
pan into the monster's skull. The izithunzela
falls to the ground like a stone.
MAYA
Hey...
Maya looks around and sees the remaining
izithunzela coming toward her slowly.
MAYA
Crap.
Maya makes a break for it and runs upstairs.
INT. XANDER'S FIREHOUSE - TRAINING ROOM
Maya runs into the room and throws open the
weapons' cabinet. It's filled with all sorts of
weapons.
MAYA
Okay... Iron... Iron... Of course...
this is all steel.
We hear the sounds of the izithunzela slowly come
up the stairs.
MAYA
Crap!
Maya then looks down at a couple of vials of holy
water. She picks up one of the vials
MAYA
Blessed by a holy man, eh?
Maya takes down two of the handheld crossbows from
the wall and awkwardly loads them with her good
hand.
The izithunzela appear at the top of the stairs.
Maya pours holy water over the quarrels; grabs one
of the hand held crossbows and aims.
MAYA
Let's hope this works.
Maya fires and hits one of the monsters in the
heart area. Maya holds her breath as it stalls and
then falls over.
MAYA
Yes!
Maya grabs the other handheld crossbow, aims and
hits the other izithunzela in the head. It drops
to the ground as Maya does her victory dance.
MAYA
Yes! I rock!
AMY
(OS)
I'd hold off on the victory celebration,
sweetie.
Maya turns to see Amy and two more izithunzela
behind her.
AMY
It's not over yet.
INT. STREETS OF CAPE KENNETH
Liv is running like a bat out of hell toward the
firehouse. She screaming into the cell.
LIV
Mr. Harris! Maya! Anyone!
INT. LUCY'S CAR
Lucy is driving like a bat out of hell. Xander is
on his cell.
XANDER
Liv? Liv? Can you hear me?
From the cell we hear a burst of static.
LIV
I'm (static) fine! Get (static) Maya
(static) trouble.
Lucy hangs a hard left.
LUCY
Hang on!
AUDREY
Any chance you guys could drop me off at
home first?
Everyone looks at her with disgust.
INT. XANDER'S FIREHOUSE - TRAINING ROOM
Maya is held captive by two of the izithunzela.
Amy is looking at her with interest.
AMY
So what are you? A slayer?
MAYA
I'm... not a slayer. I'm just me.
AMY
Uh-huh. Well you did pretty well there.
Of course, now you're going to die, so
don't get a big head or anything.
MAYA
Yeah, before they kill me and I become
one of the walking dead... you mind
telling me what this is all about?
AMY
Oh is this the part where I'm supposed
to tell you the entire nefarious scheme
while you stall for time?
MAYA
Kind of hoping.
AMY
Yeah. Well I'm not your typical James
Bond kind of villain. So if you don't
mind?
(to the izithunzela)
Kill h--
Suddenly a very large knife is put to Amy's
throat. Spike steps behind Amy with a smirk on his
face.
SPIKE
I thought I smelled a rat.
AMY
Oh, like I haven't heard that one
before. You're still around are you?
SPIKE
Yep. Want to have those uglies over
there release the girl before I ruin
your singing voice?
AMY
You going to let me go?
SPIKE
Sounds like a deal.
AMY
Well then... I'll see you around.
Amy snaps her fingers and she and the izithunzela
disappear in a flash of light. Maya collapses to
the floor.
SPIKE
You okay?
MAYA
Yeah. Thanks.
SPIKE
No problem ducks.
Maya and Spike share a smile. Maya nods to the
three bags at Spikes' feet.
MAYA
You find those artifacts?
Spike nudges one of the bags forward.
SPIKE
That would be what you guys are looking
for.
MAYA
What's the other two bags?
SPIKE
Stuff I wanted.
Maya and Spike share a smile.
LIV
(OS)
Maya!
SPIKE
Up here!
Liv and Jordy run up the stairs and practically
tackle Maya.
LIV
Oh my god. We saw the damage down there
and...
JORDY
You're okay right?
MAYA
I'm fine.
LIV
It's a good thing that Spike got home in
time to kill those things.
SPIKE
Actually...
Maya looks at Spike and shakes her head. Spike
gives her a confused look.
SPIKE
I... did... get.. home... early. yeah.
Anywho...
Spike kicks the artifact bag over to the odd
squad.
SPIKE
I'll be in my basement.
LIV
I can't stand him.
MAYA
I don't know. I think he's okay.
Liv gives Maya and odd look.
MAYA
C'mon. You want to know what those
things are?
JORDY
You know?
MAYA
Please. I'm the queen of research.
The group laughs as they go downstairs.
