FADE IN:<br><br>

EXT. ORANGE CITY HIGH SCHOOL PARKING LOT - LATE 
AFTERNOON <br> <br>

Daemon parks her truck, and steps out. Immediately 
after, Marcus walks out of the building in front of her 
(Orange City High School Gym) and smiles.<br><br>

MARCUS<br>
Well hello there! Long time no see, 
Daemon. Your looking as lovely as 
ever. I didn't expect to see you here 
so early.<br><br>

DAEMON<br>
Can the crap, Marcus. I've been 
getting tailed by a bunch of "Kim's 
Karate" rejects, and odds are I've got 
you to thank for them.<br><br>

MARCUS<br>
Now, now, Daemon. You know better than 
to think I'd purposely irritate you.<br><br>

Daemon pulls a long katana from behind her back.<br><br>

MARCUS<br>
You know, I've often found it so... 
refreshing to see your use of 
traditional weapons.<br><br>

DAEMON<br>
I'm not in the mood for this. I know 
you've got something planned involving 
my kid, so I'm giving you to the count 
of three to surrender. <br><br>

Marcus begins to back up slowly, his hands in front of 
his face.<br><br>

MARCUS<br>
Now Daemon, don't be so brash. I 
only--<br><br>

DAEMON<br>
One...<br><br>

MARCUS<br>
Mordred's not going to be hurt if he 
just cooperates--<br><br>

DAEMON<br>
Two...<br><br>

MARCUS<br>
Who knows? He might just enjoy 
showing off what he really is--<br><br>

DAEMON<br>
Three!!<br><br>

Daemon rushes at Marcus, who pulls a hand gun from the 
inside of his pocket and holds it at Daemon.<br><br>

MARCUS<br>
Now, I usually hate resorting to this 
type of weapon but you're giving me 
little choice.<br><br>

In a split second, Daemon slashes her sword upwards and 
cuts the gun in half.<br><br>

MARCUS<br>
In fact, you're giving me an unusually 
little amount of choice..<br><br>

Daemon's features change again, her eyes glowing red 
and her vampire fangs growing as she puts the sword up 
to Marcus' neck. Daemon's other hand grabs him by the 
collar.<br><br>

DAEMON<br>
Marcus, you have no idea what your 
screwing around with! <br><br>

MARCUS<br>
No, I have a pretty good idea after 
seeing you. Tell me, how do you go on 
without it?<br><br>

DAEMON<br>
Without what?<br><br>

MARCUS<br>
This.<br><br>

Marcus tilts his head, exposing his bare neck and 
grinning.<br><br>

MARCUS<br>
It's still as delicious as always, you 
know. Warm... thick... And I really 
wouldn't mind becoming a--<br><br>

DAEMON<br>
Stupid!!<br><br>

Daemon throws Marcus against the wall.<br><br>

DAEMON<br>
I don't have the ability to pass on 
the lust anymore. You know that.<br><br>

MARCUS<br>
Well... you have a point. I can't 
really do much with you. Now, Mordred 
on the other hand...<br><br>

DAEMON<br>
I swear, if you've done anything--<br><br>

MARCUS<br>
(laughs)
How would you even know?? You, my 
dear, have spent so much time outside 
with me... if I'd done anything to 
your precious little boy you'd be far 
to late.<br><br>

Daemon grinds her teeth, runs into the building and...
