ACT ONE
In the interrogation room Lydia an innocent 10 year-old girl is sitting at a table. Suddenly she looks up and her eyes grow red and redder. She is being possessed. She is staring into space and she slowly picks up a pen and begins to draw frantically. Lydia’s face becomes pale and ghostly while she is drawing. John, a forty year old well built official from MI5 is sitting on the edge of the table looking over Lydia’s shoulder.
Lydia’s drawing begins to slow. There is a loud noise as she collapses on the table. Red begins to fade in her eyes and her face regains colour. John then slides out the drawing from under her and as he looks at the image his eyes flash red.
He walks over to a “mirror” fixed within one of the walls, and pushes the image against the screen. A deep masculine voice is heard over a tannoy system “So, 5 days, 5 place, 5 explosions?” John replies “Yep”.
ACT TWO
Behind the glass a group of people begin to rush quickly around, they are all in uniforms. John leaves the interrogation room and enters behind the glass. He says “Smith you and your team go to locations 1, 3 and 5, and Drew you and your team go to locations 2 and 4.” He says with confidence. The team leaves.
John is left alone behind the glass with his write hand man Bob, the room is silent and then through a speaker they hear Lydia’s weak and pathetic voice “You.” They turn and she is pointing towards Bob.
ACT THREE
Lydia picks up the pen and starts to draw again with the pen, but there is no paper, she is scratching into the table. John comes back into the room and knocks the table over so that you can see the image from behind the glass. It is another drawing of the pentagram, yet this time it has Bob’s initials in the centre. There is a crackle as the table starts to burn from the centre of the pentagram the fire builds in intensity.
Reasonable three act structure. Could you add a little more description to the characters ?
