Screenwriting... A Quick Scene



CUT TO:

EXT. ALLEY WAY - NIGHT 

AMBER hears her footsteps echo loudly in the darkness.

AMBER 
(muttering)
Stupid alley.. Stupid shoes.. 
Stupid stupid stupid shit..

Hearing footsteps behind her she turns quickly but sees nothing in the darkness. One hand trailing the wall next to her for balance in the darkness Amber turns back, quickening her pace.

Dressed in a blouse, short red leather skirt and red pumps Amber hears a rustling by her ear. It makes her jump back against the wall.

CLOSE ON Amber held against the wall, a large hand around Amber’s neck clasped tightly. Amber’s green eyes moving wildly in shock and horror.

Amber tries to scream but only gasps for air. Her arms flail looking for something to hold on to.

CLOSE ON THE ASSAILANT’S other hand ripping through Amber’s white blouse exposing her naked breasts.

AMBER (CONT’D) 
(gasping)
Please... don’t...

The Assailant pushes his body against hers, coming into view. They are the same height and his long dirty dark hair covers both of their faces.

SOUND: Thwack!!

Amber and The Assailant stops struggling and he slumps slowly to the ground.

Amber looks into the darkness with her mouth and eyes wide open. She looks down at The Assailant. She looks back into the darkness.

Her savior steps into view. JEROME is dressed in a long fur coat and black fedora.

JEROME 
Get back to work, bitch. Make me
some money.
