      DEDICATION/FINAL WORDS

      WHEN DEATH COMES CALLING…

      INSIDE A SMALL BEDROOM

      MICHAEL, a young man, lies in bed, wrapped in a rough night’s sleep.

      He’s sweaty and twitchy.

      DEATH: Michael. Michael, I told you I was coming. Still don’t know who I am?

      A WHITE VOID

      DEATH stands in the void, staring into the camera (or into Michael’s soul).

      DEATH: I’m death and I’ve come for you.

      BACK TO THE BEDROOM

      Michael awakes with a start, only to find Death sitting in a chair next to the bed... waiting.

      DEATH: What happened to you, Michael? You used to be a force to be reckoned with.

      MICHAEL: Why are you here?

      DEATH: Relax Michael, it’s not your time.

      MICHAEL: Then you’ve just been taunting me? Why?

      DEATH: Because you’re exactly what I’ve been looking for.

      MICHAEL: What does that mean?

      DEATH: All good things. I’m here to offer you a deal. If you say no, I’ll leave you be. You won’t even remember this.

      MICHAEL: If I say yes?

      DEATH: You’ll say yes.

      MICHAEL: If I say yes?

      DEATH: You’ll be given eternal life. I’ll scrub you of your cancer and you’ll become one of my agents. An agent of death. I’ve seen what you can do. I was there in Fallejuh. You doled out death like it was your job.
