Evens: Triple 2s, Triple 4s, Triple 6s, Triple 8s watch while being stationed on the ground*

Kenny: I'm getting tired of looking at these angel numbers everyday.
So damn creepy….
Bobby: I just wanna know why they only came to Atlanta?
Are the aliens really nowhere else?
Brayden: Who cares? I'm hungry.
Kenny: What you in the mood for?
Brayden: Let's get some cookies.
Kenny: Really?
Bobby: We should probably get some real food first.
Brayden: Cookies taste pretty real to me
Kenny: Sigh*…
How about the Sub sandwich place over there?
Brayden: Hell no.
Bobby: I'm fine with that.
Brayden: Bobby you don't count.
You always want some nasty shit.
Bobby frowns: Well you got any better ideas?
Brayden: I just said cookies nigga.
Kenny sighs: Let's just go to the sandwich shop
-
The 2 brothers Brayden and Kenny and their friend Bobby sit down at the table*
Kenny: Aye Bray.
Mind telling me why you gotta black bandana around your neck?
Brayden: Man, first you made me get this nasty ass sandwich.
And now you telling me it's something wrong wit my fit?!
Kenny: It's 80 degrees outside nigga. Are you trying to pass out?
Brayden: This is my style-
Vick: Excuse me…
Brayden:......?!
Vick: I don't mean to disturb you, but it's probably best to stay inside at this time.
Brayden: If you afraid, then YOU can go inside.
Ian worried bout no aliens that ain't even showed up yet.
Kenny: I'm sorry about my little bro, I get your worries but the government seems to have everything under control.
Vick looks at Brayden:(That one....)
Brayden: Is it sum on my face?
Why you staring at me like that?
Vick:...........
Keep your bandana on you.
Your style might just be what saves your life….
Brayden:..Huh?!!!
Vick walks off*
Brayden: The fuck…?
Kenny: And I thought Bray was crazy….but he has on a whole trench coat.
-
Vick: That boy….he's the one.
The rest of them have no idea…
They're all about to die today….

Chapter 2
Brayden, Kenny, and Bobby walk outside the cookie shop*
Kenny: Happy now…?
You finally got your cookies.
Brayden: We shoulda just went here first.
Bobby: You're not supposed to eat dessert first.
Brayden: You still on about that shit?
Bobby: I'm just saying Bray. You might upset your stomach.
Brayden: Bobby you my bro, but you gotta stop with this goodie two shoes shit. You-!!
What the-?!
Aye Ken!
Is he fucking following us?!
Kenny: What?!
Bobby: ?!
Brayden, Kenny, and Bobby look to see Vick staring at them from down the street*
Vick turns away and starts walking down the street*
Kenny: You two stay right here.
Brayden: Hold on bro….
Kenny: We can't let him follow us home.
Just stay here with Bobby.
Kenny walks up to Vick*
Kenny: Hey!! We see you!!
Vick:.........
The sky turns dark*
Vick:........!!
Kenny: ?!!!
What’s up with the sky?!!
Bobby and Brayden:?!!!
Vick: It's time.
Kenny:......What?!
6 beams of different colors from different directions all shoot towards each other in the middle of the sky over the city of Atlanta*
Other people downtown: Woah!! Look at those lights….they're all different colors!!
Bobby: Bray! That might be the aliens!!!
Brayden:......!!!
People are blinded by the light of all the colors in the sky coming together in the sky over the city, to create a big white flash*
Millions of rays come down from the blast of the different color lights colliding with each other*
Millions of people at random all throughout the city and metropolitan area of Atlanta are struck with rays in the foreheads, momentarily knocking them out*
-
Vick wakes up after purposely letting himself get hit in the forehead with a ray: …….
I can feel it…..
I was stamped….
Vick puts his black band around his head to cover his forehead*
Vick sets the timer on his watch:....The timer is set…
Vick takes his trenchcoat off revealing a vest with the number 11 on it then pulls out a machine gun: Now…..I just have to make it 24 hours.

Chapter 3
Brayden and Bobby wake up after being hit in the head with the rays from the shining*
Bobby: Those had to be the aliens!!
Brayden: Rghh!
I thought the angels was supposed to be protecting us!!
…?!
Aye Bobby, Why is there a letter on your forehead?!!
Bobby: Wait, I have one too?!
Brayden: Wait….are you saying…?!
Brayden rubs his forehead: !!!
Is it coming off?!
Bobby: No…
Brayden: Man what IS this?! Some kinda tattoo?!
And on my face?!
Bobby: Aye Bray….?
Brayden: Yea….
Bobby: What does my letter say?
Brayden: Yours is a T.
Bobby: Oh…
Brayden: What's mine?
Bobby: Yours is a T too.
Brayden:.......!!!
Bobby: Hey look there's someone else….
With a T on their forehead too….!
A stranger comes up with a T on their foreheads as well*
Stranger: Did you guys see the aliens?!
Brayden: Not yet.
Bobby: Ummm Bray….
Brayden: What Bobby?
Bobby: It's the angel numbers...They're moving….
Bray: Wha-?!
A triple 1 shoots the stranger in front of them splattering blood all over Brayden's face*
Brayden: !!!!
Bobby: Ahhhhh!!!
Bobby runs off screaming*
Bray: Bobby, wait!!
The blood drips down from
Brayden’s forehead into his eyes.
Brayden: Shit…..My eyes!!!
Brayden gets the blood out of his eyes but as soon as he does he opens them to see Bobby being grabbed by a triple 5*
!!!!
Brayden: BOBBY!!
Bobby: HELP ME!!!
The Triple 5 crushes Bobby to pieces*
Brayden:....No….….
The Triple 5 flies back up into the air leaving Bobby's remains in front of Brayden*
Brayden starts crying and is paralyzed by fear*
A triple 4 crushes another stamped person’s head next to Brayden*
The triple 4 walks in front Brayden*
Brayden:.......!!!
I can't move…my legs…..!!
The Triple 4 walks past Brayden*
Brayden: Why…..didn’t it attack me….?!
Everyone throughout the city is running and screaming: AHHHH!!!
The angel numbers start killing the people that were stamped through the shining*
Vick's walkie talkie rings*
Vick: This must be Matthew.
Vick presses the walkie talkie as Matthew speaks through it*
“Attention to all doubles.
All of you should be able to hear me through your device.
This is General Matthew.
And as foretold, The Shining has happened over the city of Atlanta and its metropolitan areas.
The angels have already started the extermination process.
As instructed you will go behind them to clean up any letters that they missed.
Within these next 24 hours, you are to take out as many as possible.
Whether it be a man, woman, or child...
Anybody that is stamped, must be eliminated.”
TO BE CONTINUED
Chapter 4
Brayden stares at Bobby's remains, while still in a daze from shock:.......
A stranger that isn't stamped walks by Brayden*
Stranger: Hey kid, you should probably get out of the open….
The angels are still killing the aliens….
Brayden: What……aliens?!
They're……..killing…..people
They killed….Bobby…..
Stranger: I'm sorry…but….if the angels killed them….then….they weren't……
Brayden turns to the stranger:.......!!!!!!(He doesn't have a letter…!!)
What are you saying?
The stranger goes to help Brayden: Hey…….let me help you up. We need to get you something for your head. It's bleeding really bad.
Brayden: (The blood…is that why he can't see it….?!
Is that why the angels….?!)
[“Keep your bandana on you.
Your style might just be what saves your life….”]
Brayden: Don't touch me!!!
Stranger: !!!...uh…..
Brayden runs off*
Brayden pulls the bandana that was around his neck up to his face to cover his forehead*
Brayden: Kenny…..please don't be dead.
-
Brayden's mom(Rena) watches the news on the TV:
The event that many are calling, “The Shining” was a tool that we used to snuff out the aliens and expose them.
These " humans" have now been stamped with a letter to differentiate them from the actual humans, so that the angels now know who to attack.
Their letters indicate the type of threat they pose.
These “humans” are not human..
They are not your family, they are not your friends.
Nothing but imposters that have already disposed of their bodies.
If you see a letter human, dial the number 0 on your phone and the doubles will be alerted to the location.
All I, the president, ask of my citizens is for you all to do all you can to help us help you.
And hopefully, we can return back to normalcy as soon as possible. Thank you.
Brayden's mom prays: Jesus…
Please have mercy on-
Knock Knock*
Brayden knocks on the door of his house*
Brayden’s mom:!!!
His mom answers and lets him in*
Brayden's Mom hugs him: I'm so glad your okay baby, Where's Ken….and Bobby?
Is that blood?!
Brayden sobs: Those angels killed Bobby!!
I saw him get crushed to pieces.
I don't know where Ken is, I thought he might be here.
Mom:..........!!!
She notices his bandana on his head*
Mom: Hey, you usually wear your bandana around your neck.
Brayden: Yea I just-
His Mom takes the bandana off and drops it due to shock:
I can't believe it!!!
Brayden's Mom cries: They got my baby boy!!! Jesus please have mercy on his soul!!
Brayden's Mom dials 0 on her phone*
Brayden: Mom……..?
Mom: Don't call me MOM!! YOU ARE NOT MY SON!!!!
Brayden's mom starts throwing glass and chairs at him*
Brayden's Mom: What did you do with his body?!! You fucking monsters!!
Brayden: Wait!!!! You can't believe what they're saying ma!!!
Vick walks through the opened door of the house in his 11 uniform*
Brayden:!!!! No…..
Vick: Put your band back on.
We're leaving.
Brayden: I'm not going anywhere with you!!
Vick: I don't have time for this.
Vick grabs Brayden's arm and forces his bandana on his forehead himself*
Brayden: No!!! Let go of me!!!
Vick: I'm the only one that can protect you from the rest of them.
Brayden screams and cries: NOOO!!!!
Brayden's mom covers her eyes and breaks down sobbing as Vick drags Brayden out the house*
TO BE CONTINUED
Chapter 5
Brayden: Let fucking go of me!!!
Vick: Relax, like I said. I'm here to protect you..
Brayden: Your voice?! You're the guy from earlier?!
How did you even find me?!!
Vick: Your mom pressed 0. That's how all of us found you.
Brayden:.......?!!!
Another 11 walks up to them: Hey?!
Vick:.............
Brayden:!!!
11: The boy’s got his forehead covered….
That's a letter isn't it….?
Why haven't you killed him yet?
Vick:...........
Brayden…you see that motorcycle over there?
Brayden: What?
Vick: Run to it.
11: Hey, what's going on?!!!
Vick shoots the 11 dead*
Another 11 comes up to Brayden as he runs to the motorcycle*
Brayden: Ahhhh!!!
Vick shoots the other 11 dead as well.
Brayden: Where are we going?!
Vick: To my base. Your brother's already there.
Brayden: Kenny?!
More 11s come up*
Brayden: Ahh!!
Vick: Hang on!!
Vick drives off with Brayden on the motorcycle as the other 11s shoot at them*
11s: I can't believe it!!
One of us is saving the letters!
Another 11: I got his license plate down. We'll find out which one of us that was.
TO BE CONTINUED
Chapter 6
Vick has brought Brayden back to his house outside the city*
Brayden sees his brother along with another survivor wearing bands on their foreheads as well to cover their letters*
Brayden: Ken!!
Brayden and Kenny hug*
Kenny: Bray, you were stamped too?!
Brayden: If you mean the T on my forehead then yeah.
Kenny: I got the same letter.
Brayden: How did you even end up here?!
Kenny: I was still next to Vick when all hell broke loose.
He gave me a band to cover my letter.
It's like he already knew….
Brayden turns to Vick:........Yea…….
Kenny: Where's Bobby?
Brayden: I.....
Brayden cries: I- I couldn't……
Kenny:......…….Fuck……..
Brayden continues sobbing:......
And our mom, she thinks we're aliens now. The whole world does!
Kenny: I know. Vick had the TV on.
Vick: Alright. I got your brother. Now let's go. It won't be long before they find me out.
Kenny:.......Hey…..you gon let us in on how you knew all this shit?
What's going on?
Vick finishes rigging the house: Now’s not the time.
Kenny: That's cool I guess.
He's been doing this the whole time Bray….hasn't answered a single fucking question.
Brayden:.............
Vick: Come on Aija….we’re leaving….
Aija comes out from the living room:.........Where are we going?
Brayden blushes:.....!! You're stamped too….?!
Aija: Yea…Vick saved me…
Brayden: What letter do you have?
Aija: Mines a T….
Brayden: Me too…
I can't believe they'd stamp us just to lie on us and kill us…
It's like some kind of sick experiment.
Aija: Yea……
Vick gets triggered: Rghhh......!!!!
The shining is NOT the doing of the government!!!
Brayden, Kenny, & Aija:!!!!
Vick: THAT…..
came from HER….
Kenny: HER?!!
Brayden and Aija:?!!
Kenny: Finally fucking told us something….
Vick:......!!
(What the hell am I doing?! I let myself say too much!! Damn it!!)
Vick:......Let's just-
Vick gets an alert on his phone*
Vick: Shit!! They're outside!!
We have to move now!
TO BE CONTINUED
Chapter 7
The 11s make it to the front of Vick's house*
11: Should we go in?
Other 11: Nah, don't go in the house.
They have to know we're here.
All our bases have cameras and underground passages.
I'm sure they're moving through it already.
Vick is hiding in the bushes:........
Another 11: We’ll go around the house and-
Gunshot*
An 11 gets shot in the head by Vick with a rifle*
Vick starts sniping out the 11s*
Other 11: Shit! This is Vick, which means the others probably escaped from the back.
Only one of you need to go.
The rest of us will hold Vick off!
One of the 11s go into the woods*
Vick throws a grenade at the 3 11s that stayed behind*
11: Shit! Grenade!
The grenade blows up, killing one of the 11s.
Another one gets shot by Vick before he runs out of bullets from his rifle*
Vick comes out to face the last 11 that stayed behind, after switching to his pistol*
11: Why are you helping them?!
Don't tell me……..are you stamped?!
You should've known to keep your band up!
No…..you're too smart for that….it was on purpose….
Vick:.......
11: Why in the hell would you let yourself get stamped?!
Vick: To save the world.
11: The hell do you mean save the world?! That's what we're doing!!!
Vick: No, you are all fighting to save YOUR world. I'm fighting to save HERS…
Vick shoots the last 11 in the head, killing him*
-
Brayden, Kenny, and Aija are running through the woods*
Aija: Guys wait…I can't keep up
Brayden runs to Aija: Come on Aija!!
Aija breathes hard: I can't-
Kenny: Shit!!
It's an 11!!
The 11 catches up and start shooting, forcing Kenny and Brayden and Aija to run towards the trees*
Brayden and Aija get behind a tree together*
Kenny gets shot in the leg before he can make it behind a tree*
Kenny: Ahhhh!!!
11: Got one.
11: Hey, kids come out…
Or else he's gonna get it.
The 11 presses his rifle against Kenny's wound…making him scream*
Kenny: Ahhh
Brayden: Damn it….they caught Kenny!
Kenny: No!!! Don't!!! Stay where you are Bray!!!
Aija: He's right, we can't-
Brayden: YOU can hide, I'm not leaving my brother…
Aija: Brayden wait!
Brayden: Ken!
Kenny: Damn it Bray! I told you to not to come out!!
Kenny looks up to see the angel numbers above them:......
The 11 raises his gun at Brayden, but before the 11 can shoot, Kenny takes off his band and lets the angel number see his letter while he grabs the 11 from behind*
11:!!!!
Kenny cries: Bray…..
Brayden screams: KENNETH!!!!!
A triple 3 shoots a beam at Kenny while he's holding the 11 back, resulting in him catching the 11 in the explosion killing both of them*
The force blows Brayden back as he was running towards them, causing him to be knocked out*
Aija: Brayden!!
Vick catches up to them*
Aija sees Vick:......Vick!
We thought they got you….!
Vick: I'm sorry I wasn't able to make it in time.…..
Vick checks Brayden's pulse: He's alive….
Vick picks up Brayden:…come on Aija.
Aija:......
TO BE CONTINUED
Chapter 8
Brayden wakes up:......!!!
Aija: Vick….Brayden's awake…
Brayden:…….Where am I?!
Vick:….We made it to another neighborhood not far away from my base.
If whoever’s house this belongs to was out during the shining…
They're probably not coming back…
Brayden:........!
Kenny……
Where's Kenny….?!!
Aija: Brayden….I'm sorry……
Brayden cries:.................
Vick: Hey you need to eat something. We're in the middle of the night already.
Brayden: I'm not fucking hungry….
Vick: I didn't ask if you were hungry, I told you to eat.
Vick leaves*
Brayden stares at the food in front of him:.........
Brayden: AHHHHHHH!!!!
Brayden flips everything in the room over in a fit of rage and sadness*
Aija:.............!!!
Brayden's head starts hurting and he starts to collapse but Aija catches him*
Aija: Hey…….
Brayden breaks down crying*
Aija breaks down crying with Brayden*
Aija and Brayden hold each other while sobbing*
Brayden cries: Aija…..that's your name right…?
Aija cries: Yea…..
Brayden cries: What the fuck is happening?!!!
Aija cries: I don't know……..sniff*
-
Aija and Brayden have been laying together*
Brayden: Hey, Aija….
Aija: Yea, Brayden….
Brayden: I don't think I'm going to sleep….
Aija: Me neither……
Brayden: What are we supposed to do? Just sit here?
Aija: I don't know….Vick won't say anything.
He just keeps looking at his timer.
Brayden:.........
Aija: I think I saw some uno cards downstairs though.
You wanna play….?
Brayden:...........
Aija: Sorry….I just….thought maybe….something to do….to you know….
Brayden:.......Sure…….
Aija: Okay…Hold on. I'm gonna go get them.
Aija leaves*
-
Aija finds the uno cards but overhears Vick in the bathroom laughing and talking to himself*
Aija:!!!
Vick has his band off and is staring at himself in the mirror looking at his letter stamp while smiling:
I did it…..
Just 8 more hours left….
And you will finally shine….
Aija walks in on him looking at his letter symbol in the mirror:.....!!
TO BE CONTINUED
Chapter 9
Aija and Brayden are playing uno*
Brayden: Aija…? You look even more scared.
Did something else happen?
Aija:…..Vick…I walked in on him….talking to himself….
Brayden: What was he saying?
Aija: He was talking about how many hours were left….
Your brother told me….He set his timer for 24 hours….
Brayden:.....?!
Aija: And he talked about something shining…..
He had his band off too.
It looked like he was admiring his letter in the mirror.
Like he's happy he got stamped.
Why…..would anybody want to be-?!
Vick goes and walks in on them*
Brayden and Aija:.....!!!!
Aija: Umm..we couldn't sleep.
So we're just playing uno.
…….
……Wanna join us?
Vick:……..
No.
Just try to get whatever sleep you can.
Before the 24 hours are up….
Aija and Brayden:...........
Vick walks out*
Brayden: I don't think I'm getting any sleep.
Aija: Yeah…me neither…
-
An 11 calls Matthew: Matthew
Matthew: What is it?
11: It’s official. Vick switched. He even let himself get stamped.
And now he's helping the lettered humans.
Matthew: Sigh*......
Out of all the ones to switch.
When you catch him…don't kill him…I need to know why he betrayed me…..
He was supposed to be the Master for your division.
But from now on, you're the Master 11.
11: Yessir…
Also, one of the 11s said they saw him in the T region..
Matthew shakes:……!!!!!!!!
So he has a T?!!!
No………
You must catch him by any means necessary before the 24 hours are up!!
Forget about all the other letter humans!!
We cannot let HIS shine load!!!
-
Vick sees the sun coming up: 4 hours left….
Vick starts dozing off looking at his timer:.....
I'm so close….
TO BE CONTINUED
Chapter 10 | Bands Finale
11s come into the neighborhood*
11: You sure Vick is gonna be in here…?
Other 11: He wasn't anywhere to be seen in the surrounding woods.
He had to have broken into one of these houses. Especially if he got those kids with him.
-
Vick wakes up to the sound of a door getting kicked: !!!!
(What was that noise?!
It came from outside…)
Vick opens the windows and sees the 11s kicking the doors to the other houses in the neighborhood they're in*
Vick: Shit!!
Vick turns around to see Aija and Brayden at the top of the stairs*
Brayden and Aija:.........!!!!
Vick puts his fingers over his lips: Shhh they're in the neighborhood.
You two need to-
The front door gets kicked in shoving Vick back*
Aija: No, Vick!
The 11 looks up at Brayden and Aija at the top of the stairs*
Vick shoots the 11s at the entrance of the house, using the kicked down door on top of him as a shield for cover*
Vick gets up and checks his timer: 5 Minutes left…..!!!
11: We found the house…..Everybody move in!!!
We only have 5 minutes!!!
The doubles rush into the house*
Vick, Aija and Brayden are by the window of the room on the back of the house*
Vick: You two will jump out the window first.
Vick sees the 11s at the back of the house: Shit, they're surrounding us.
Vick shoots the 11s down through the windows killing them before they can shoot*
Vick: Quick, both of you jump out. I'm right behind you…
The 11s kick in the door to the room*
Brayden grabs Aija's hand: Let's go…!!
Vick lifts the bed up for cover and starts shooting at the 11*
11: 2 of you leave the house and get the kids outside...we'll take care of Vick!!
Vick throws the grenade over the bed*
11: Grenade!!
Vick jumps out the window as it explodes landing on his back*
Vick: Ergh!
Vick gets shot by the 2 11s coming around the corner of the house as he's trying to get up,
with his vest protecting his torso from the bullets, but the force of the bullets still knock him to the ground*
11: How many grenades did this fucker steal?!!
Master 11 comes up: Remember.
Matthew said he wants him alive.
11: We only shot the vest.
Master 11 ties Vick's hands up*
Master 11: You have the nerve to still be wearing your number vest after betraying us…?
Vick: Why would I get rid of my protection…?
Master 11 punches him*
Master 11 points to two other 11s: You two go look in the woods behind here.
That's where they must've run off through.
Vick: Why am I still alive….?
Master 11: Matthew wants to speak with you..
Vick: If he was smart he woulda just had you kill me….
Master 11: He wants to know why….
Vick:........He should already know why….
11s: Erghhh. Where the hell are those kids?! They couldn't have gotten far.
Vick: The timer beeps
BEEP BEEP BEEP*
Master 11: Let me get that for you.
Master 11 turns of the alarm*
Master 11: You even set up an alarm and all…
Just for your shine to be covered when the 24 hours are up.
Hmph.
Vick:............
Brayden!! Aija!!!
Before was the time to keep your stamps covered…
Now is the time to do the opposite…..
Don't be afraid!
Your shines are loaded!!
Master 11:!!!
Why you!!
Master 11 begins to float into the air along with all the other doubles: Uh!!! What?!!
No!!!
Master 11 turns to see Brayden popping his head out of a trash can with his T Shine uncovered and glowing: Rghh!!! The fucking trashcan?!!
All the 11s except Vick fly up the sky: AHHHH!!!
Brayden:...!!!!
Vick: I knew…I could count on you.
-
Aija appears somewhere else on the other side of the house
Aija:…..?!
Where?! I'm in front of the house now….?!
How did I….?!
A triple 5 comes at Aija.
Aija: No!!
I forgot my band was down!!!
Brayden: GET AWAY FROM HER!!!
Brayden sends the triple 5 far away from Aija with his T Shine*
Brayden: Wow, that one was even stronger…!
Vick:..............
Aija: Bray….?!
Brayden: How did you get all the way over here?! You were just next to me…!
Vick:.............
Aija: I…don't know..
Where are all the 11s that were after us…?!
Brayden: Look up….
Aija:.....!
The 11s all fall down from the sky dying upon impact as they splatter onto the ground, houses and cars*
Aija: You did all of that?!
Brayden: I don't even know how. It was just off instinct.
Aija: It was the same for me.
I fell through some kind of portal.
And was right here all of a sudden.
Vick walks up to them: With enough time…..you two will get the hang of your shines.
Along with the rest that made the countdown.
Aija: So this is what you were waiting for….!!!
Vick walks past them:..........
Aija:..……..
Brayden:........
Vick pulls his band down and loads his T Shine:....Now we just have to make the next one…
