The Amnesia Script (Over 1400 words) (And my 100th post on this website!)

(Music #1 and rain and thunder begin playing) (Camera fades into room 1 (pic 1) to show Daniel lying on the ground) (What, what is this place” - Daniel ramblings) He sits up and touches his forehead with two fingers to notice its bleeding. (Daniel gasps of him cringing) He slowly gets up, stumbling.  He looks to his left to notice that his left arm is swollen and bleeding. (Daniel slow breath) He slowly gets back up and walks down to the end of the room, where a table with a candle is lit, a lantern is placed, and a note lay. Daniel picks up and reads the note in his head (note 1) Daniel puts the note back down on the table, looks to his right, and notices a door. He looks down once more to notice he is wearing his rosary, and lifts it up in his palm. He grasps it firmly. (“I have to get out of here” - Daniel ramblings) He looks back at the door and, approaching it slowly, begins to open the door as it creaks. (Door noises) (Music 2 plays) He “leans” as he looks left and right to see if the coast is clear. He begins to walk right and beings to open the next door (door noises) when suddenly, he breaks down. He stumbles back down to the ground as noises fill his head. (Image flash, whispers, ear ringing 1, ear ringing 2, dog squeal, baby cry, ambience guardian) (He stays with his hands and knees on the ground for bit as the sounds in his head die out, then slowly proceeds his way to get back up. He notices windows to his right and then to his left. He walks to the left set of windows and looks outside at the black darkness. (Sounds of rain and thunder) (“Its cold, it’s so cold” - Daniels ramblings) He looks back to his right and continues on. He approaches a 3 way hallway and proceeds to walk to the hallway with a lit staircase, and notices a dragon statue. (May change) He picks it up, pulls it closer to his face and examines it, when suddenly; he hears the scream of a girl. (Scared reaction from Daniel and gasp of breath) He pulls out his lit lantern (lantern noise) and proceeds into the darkness where he heard the scream. He drops the dragon and quickly turns on his lantern. He begins to walk down the hallway. (Slow breathing) He gets to a doorway and opens it slowly. (Door creak, “is anyone there” - Daniels ramblings) Another scream right after he says that. (Scream 6 and 10) He quickly turns around and continues down the hallway, breathing even faster. (Daniel fast breath) He notices a door on his left and begins to open it, but suddenly he slams the door shut because he hears the girl again. (Girl screams 1 and Daniel reaction, door opening and slamming) He shuts off his lantern. (“help her find a way” - Daniels ramblings, sanity 3) He begins to slowly open the door and pears left and right inside. For a moment, all is quiet. Suddenly Daniel is startled by the sound of a whale-like creature, and the girls screams one last time before the creature cuts her and breaks her bones. (Brute whimper, girls scream 6 and 10, grunt attacks, bones cracking) Daniel is so frightened by the sound and begins to run in fear. (Music #6, lantern noise,) Daniel runs back down the hallway and makes a right towards the staircase, stepping into the light. He stops for a moment to catch his breath. (Daniel fast breath, music #3, rain and thunder, “the darkness closing in” “something’s wrong oh so wrong” - Daniels ramblings) He regains his sanity and begins to make his way down the staircase. As he goes down he can hear a baby cry. (baby cry, ambiance, “getting closer somehow” - Daniels ramblings”) He finds a door only to see that it is locked. (Rain and thunder, ambiance, “the darkness closing in” - Daniels ramblings) Daniel pounds the door with both his hands and leans his head on it. (“This shouldn’t be” - Daniels ramblings, rain and thunder, ambiance) He turns around and begins to walk slowly down the other hallway. He pulls out his lantern again. (Lantern noise) And suddenly begins to hear footsteps above him. (Muffled steps) His head follows the footsteps as the sound travels right over him. (“Someone’s coming” - Daniels ramblings) Daniel puts away his lantern and remains completely frozen, all is silent. He slowly turns back around and begins to walk again, seeing a candle lit, and a door swings open as though it had been blown by the wind itself, thus blowing out the candle. (First door audio plus Daniel breath, slow breath, ambiance wind) Daniel quickly pulls out his lantern again and “leans” into the room. He sees nothing. He closes the door (door opening and slamming) and continues on. Daniel approaches a staircase and peers down into the darkness. (“the darkness closing in” - Daniels ramblings) He begins to make his way down the staircase. On the way down, he hears another sound. The sound of a squealing dog. (Dog squeal, ambiance) He makes his way down to the door and begins to open it. (Door noises) He walks into the cold darkness that filled the room. He made sure to shut the door behind him, quietly. (“the shadow its close now” - Daniels ramblings, sanity 5, footsteps) Upon entering the room, walking into the unknown, he begins to hear what sounds to be a man being tortured by a saw. At first, it is slow. But as Daniel trails further into the darkness, the sawing gets louder and faster. Daniel is nearly to the back of the room, the sound of the man choking over his own blood and the sound of the saw couldn’t be any louder. Daniel’s heart and breath racing, he stumbles onto the ground again. He finds the strength to pull himself up to the table and grabs the key. The moment he grabs the key, the sound finally goes away. Daniel breathes at a slower pace, his heart rate returns to normal, and he regains his sanity. He could feel the power of the key, and it felt like a way out. He puts it in his pocket and makes his way back to the door. As he is just a few feet from the door, a horrible noise begins to shake the entire building, as though something had just been awoken. (Guardian activated) He freezes for a moment, standing there with the lantern in his hand. Thinking nothing of it, Daniel walks even slower towards the door. He almost touches the handle, until he then hears the sound of another monster, only not as deep of a sound. (Grunt spawn) He breathes slowly and has no choice but to open the door. SLAM! (Monster surprise, event coming, music 4) The shadow was there. That thing was on the other side of the door and it was begging to break in. Daniel was trapped. He had no weapons, or any way to get around the monster. He could only hide in the darkness, hoping the monster could not smell fear. Daniel quickly blends in with the darkness. The monster broke the door down, and began to search for him. Daniel remained as still and as quiet as possible. The monster had walked past Daniel. This was his chance. He had to quietly get back to the door. Daniel began to creep closer and closer, not even looking back at the monster. He quietly opened, went through, and closed the door. Looking at door, he slowly back away until he was about 3 feet from the door. Then suddenly, (RAWR, music 7) Daniel turns around and can do nothing but run. He runs back to the front door and struggles to unlock the door with the key. He just barely unlocks it in time. Daniel runs outside into more darkness, away from the monster hoping it did not follow him outside. He quickly stops to catch his breath, and turns around to look back at the church. All is quiet and at peace. At last. He turns back around, and the monster lets out a scream, and then kills Daniel where he stands. (Cuts to black before he is struck)
