Two Winters Past




EXT. CASTLE. DAY.

BLYTHE is walking past trailers and pre-fab buildings. Other men in black and horses pass him. Enter RATT walking opposite. They both stop.

RATT: John?

BLYTHE: Ratt!

BLYTHE and RATT embrace.

RATT: When did you come back?

BLYTHE: This morning. I got into it with the Triangles. Stole one of their bikes.

RATT: (shocked) You stole a bike from the Triangles? No fucking way, man!

BLYTHE: Not fucking happy at all.

RATT: Oh man, I been out since before dawn. We were looking for Vince Heller and Terror. Cooley place been attacked.

BLYTHE: Vince is there?

RATT: Don’t know, man, we didn’t find him. I got to tell Turner about the Cooleys.

BLYTHE: Of course. Go. Go!

BLYTHE continues on to front gate. FRANK and STEVE are still talking.

STEVE: Look at this fucking guy, showing up whenever he pleases.

BLYTHE: What’s this about the Cooleys?

FRANK: They were attacked man. Looks like rippers took down one of their walls. They were everywhere.

BLYTHE: I told you all the Cooleys been keeping then locked up...

FRANK: I ain’t seen this many since the power went out! No way the Cooleys are hiding this many!

BLYTHE: Conner know about this?

FRANK: We ain’t seen Conner.

BLYTHE: Vince’d go up through Glen Aubrey, you think?

STEVE: He got a sister still alive up there. I don’t know if she’d let Terror in.  

BLYTHE: Conner go up that way?

STEVE: Na, I think Turner sent that kid up on 81. Really wanted us keeping an eye on Triangle.

BLYTHE: I’m going out.

STEVE: You got gate duty!

BLYTHE: Turner told me to bring in the bike. He won’t be mad if you stay here a little longer.

FRANK: So you did get a bike!

BLYTHE grins.

BLYTHE: Help me with the gate.

FRANK and BLYTHE unbar the door.

FRANK: Couple other guys out there too, splitting wood’n shit. I told them what’s up. You hurry them along if you see them.

BLYTHE: Got it.

BLYTHE pulls open the gate, exits.

STEVE: Fuck that guy.

Continued 7/24
