EXT. CLEARING. NIGHT.
CHLOE ISIS, VALENTINE, and POPPER stand over the inert body of REMMY.
CLOSEUP on REMMY's dirty face. He is breathing ragged.
CHLOE ISIS: Get out to the clearing.
CLOSEUP on VALENTINE.
VALENTINE: Is Remmy coming with us?
POPPER grabs VALENTINE by the shoulder.
POPPER: Every minute we spend talking is another minute until he wakes up.
CHLOE ISIS: Kill him.
VALENTINE: No!
CHLOE ISIS: Call it payment for Doan. Call it payment for the house. Remmy earns what he gets.
A gunshot hits POPPER in the thigh. He cries out and falls.
VALENTINE: Popper!
CHLOE ISIS runs to Popper’s aid.
POPPER’s leg is blown apart.
REMMY wakes up and attacks CHLOE ISIS. She pushes him back with the rifle, but REMMY overpowers her.
VALENTINE draws his machete and chops REMMY through the shoulder.
Linger on the wound, bone and flesh chopped apart beneath the frayed ends of flannel shirt.
REMMY cries out. VALENTINE pulls the machete out and raises it to strike again.
REMMY dodges and runs. VALENTINE drops the machete.
VALENTINE helps CHLOE ISIS to her feet.
VALENTINE: You all right?
CHLOE ISIS: You almost got my fingers!
They kneel beside POPPER.
VALENTINE: Pop, you’re going to be okay.
CHLOE ISIS: He can’t walk on that.
POPPER: Go.
VALENTINE: No!
CHLOE ISIS: Remmy or his friend will be back here soon. Those monsters aren’t the only thing that can ignore its wounds. Take his rifle, it’s better than yours.
VALENTINE: Popper saved my life
CHLOE ISIS: Nothing to save now. I’m sorry, Pop. If I had a bullet, I’d give it to you.
POPPER: Go.
CHLOE ISIS hands the machete back to VALENTINE.
VALENTINE: Where are we going?
CHLOE ISIS: West.
CHLOE ISIS runs off into the dark. VALENTINE follows.
