Final script (revised)

EXT.HOUSE

Outside the house is a moving van and car. A removal man is seen carrying a box into the house.

Close up of the bedroom window. A boy is seen looking out of the window, his head is in his hands and a fed up expression is on his face.

INT.HOUSE – Bedroom

Boxes piled up everywhere. A boy looks at the boxes. Thought bubbles appear above his head containing toys and video games.

The boy sighs and leaves the room, climbs down the stairs to the kitchen.

INT.HOUSE – Kitchen

The boy’s mother is busy unpacking boxes and putting things away in cupboards. Boy hangs around getting in the way.

Mother – “Why don’t you go play outside?”

EXT. GARDEN

The garden is small and full of foliage from various plants. A big oak tree takes up most of the space.  Next to the oak tree is a large bush, hidden in which is a tunnel which leads behind the tree to a small clearing.

[Player must find the entrance to the clearing by searching the garden, certain places in the garden will be interactive]

The boy crawls into the tunnel

EXT.GARDEN – Secret clearing.

The boy crawls out of the tunnel and stands up.  On the far side of the clearing is a large furry lump which appears to be breathing.

The boy gulps and starts to move back towards the tunnel but steps on a twig, a loud crack echoes throughout the small clearing and the boy freezes still. The monster begins to stir from it’s sleep.

There is a load noise like a roar. The monster rolls over and looks sad. He’s hungry! He tries to stand but gets weak and falls back over again.

The monster points to his stomach [a thought bubble with food in it appears over the monster’s head]

The house.

INT. KITCHEN

The player can search several places in the kitchen to find food and combine them. Different combinations of food will affect the monster differently.

Chilli powder

Jam

Eggs

The two ingredients are poured into a jar and stirred.

Food for the monster made the boy goes back to the clearing.

EXT. SECRET CLEARING.

The boy places the food in front of the monster. He sniffs it and growls. Then takes the container and pours the contents into his mouth in one go. His stomach grumbles loudly and the monster burps. His stomach grumbles again even louder and the monster starts to transform.

There are three different types of transformation.

A.      Flying

B.      Fire breathing

C.      Ice

Flying transformation.

The boy gets onto the monster’s back and they fly up over the house and around the neighbourhood and land back down in the garden.  After  this there is a page showing them playing together.

Fire Transformation

The monster sneezes and fire streams out of each nostril. The boy runs to the house and grabs some marshmallows, the monster has followed him into the garden, he sneezes again and flames land dangerously close to the family cat which runs away. After  this there is a page showing them playing together.

Ice Transformation

The monster looks around and goes into a neighbour’s garden and freezes the pond with fish in. The family cat tries to get at them and gets confused when he can’t.  After  this there is a page showing them playing together.

After the transformation scenes the boy and the monster have to say goodbye. They hug and the monster leaves with the boy waving goodbye.
