Acta Non Verba Fade In: EXT. WestonZoyland Airfield Runway - Day.

. Hidden behind the hedgerow, three GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS wearing smart clothing, overlook the empty runway, almost as if they are waiting for someones arrival. The LEADER of the group is a man in his mid-forties, with a natural frown upon his face. Looking down from the empty runway, the LEADER looks at the watch on his arm. Glancing at his watch, he notices the time change from 11:59 to 12:00. Looking up from his watch he looked directly at the runway, noting the appearance of a boy/girl now standing in the runway and not even looking surprised that they are there. Standing on the runway was AVA/LYSANDER. AVA/LYSANDER were in their mid-twenties and held a composed, confident posture about them. Looking around the area cautiously, AVA/LYSANDER placed their bag on the floor and began to take off their jacket. Leaning forward into the hedgerow, the two GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS on either side of the leader; surveyed AVA/LYSANDERS every movement, looking for even the slightest change in their actions. Laying the jacket over their arm, AVA/LYSANDER look about the area once more and notice something in the hedgerow and squint their eyes for a better look. Noticing AVA/LYSANDER staring in their direction, the GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS get into positions ready to act on what AVA/LYSANDER do next. AVA/LYSANDER noticing the three GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS hidden behind the hedgerow looked from the corner of their eye at their bag, calculating their next move. Waiting for the GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS to let their guard down even the slightest, AVA/LYSANDER prepared themselves to run. Turning their head, the LEADER of the group looks at the GOVERNMENT OFFICIAL on their right to give them an order when he notices a slight movement from AVA/LYSANDER in the corner of his eye. Jerking his head to look at AVA/LYSANDER, he notices them drop their jacket and launch their hand towards their bag. Not

wanting AVA/LYSANDER to get away, the leader shouted Go, Go, Go!! at the other two GOVERNMENT OFFICALS, signalling them to pursuit and capture AVA/LYSANDER. Running out from the hedgerow, the two GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS run towards AVA/LYSANDER hoping to catch them before they run off. Launching for their bag, AVA/LYSANDER notice the two GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS running towards them and quickly grasp the handle of their bag before swinging their body and bag around running down the runway, just missing the outstretched hands of the two GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS. Annoyed that they just missed AVA/LYSANDER the two GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS screwed their faces in anger as they ran down the track after AVA/LYSANDER. As the two GOVERNMENT OFFICALS chased after AVA/LYSANDER, the LEADER came out from behind the hedgerow and walked towards the jacket that AVA/LYSANDER had dropped. Stopping just in front of the jacket, the LEADER looked down at the jacket, surveying the item like it was a ticking time bomb. Bending down, the LEADER picked up the jacket and searched the pockets. Noting an item in the pocket, the LEADER laid the jacket over his left arm and pulled out an ID card from the right hand side pocket. Turning the ID card in his hand, the LEADER read the information on the ID and nodded in conformation that they had the right person, as he looked up from the ID card and at the pursuit taking place. Looking behind them, AVA/LYSANDER noticed that the two GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS were hot on their tail and began to increase their running speed. Noticing the change in AVA/LYSANDERS pace the TWO GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS increased theirs in hope of catching AVA/LYSANDER before they managed to somehow escape. Looking behind them, AVA/LYSANDER Notice the distance between themselves and the two GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS and stop running to quickly survey the area, searching for a place to hide or at least a means of escape. Looking around they notice an old abandoned building and decide that they could hide in there. Happy that it was the best solution, AVA/LYSANDER ran in the direction of the building. Noticing AVA/LYSANDERS change of direction, the two GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS looked at where AVA/LYSANDER was headed before changing their direction to continue their pursuit of AVA/LYSANDER. Entering the building, AVA/LYSANDER stopped to quickly glance around the area. Looking around AVA/LYSANDER noticed a set of stairs which lead up to the second floor. Thinking that they

had a better chance of escaping on the second floor, AVA/LYSANDER ran up the stairs. As AVA/LYSANDER was halfway up the stairs, the two GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS entered the building and quickly glanced around looking for AVA/LYSANDER. As AVA/LYSANDER reach the top of the stairs, the two GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS noticed that AVA/LYSANDER wasnt on the first floor, so they looked for the stairs and ran up them. Hearing the footsteps of the two GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS, AVA/LYSANDER glanced around the room for a place to hide. As the footsteps got closer AVA/LYSANDER quickly ran round the corner of the stairs and hid behind one of the half sectioned panels. Reaching the top of the stairs, the two GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS look on either side of themselves, before nodding at each other and going separate ways, in search of AVA/LYSANDER. Poking their head around the side of the half sectioned panel, AVA/LYSANDER cautiously looked around to check where the two GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS were. Watching carefully, AVA/LYSANDER noticed that they two GOVERNMENT OFFFICIALS had separated, in order to find them. As the two GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS turned their backs, AVA/LYSANDER knew that this was their chance to escape, and slowly crept out from behind the half sectioned panel. Successfully creeping out from behind the half sectioned wall AVA/LYSANDER took their chance and ran for the stairs, just as the two GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS turned around. Noticing AVA/LYSANDER running for the stairs, the two GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS ran toward them in hopes of successfully capturing them this time. Noticing the two GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS had noticed them, AVA/LYSANDER sped up as she reached the top of the stairs. Lunging toward AVA/LYSANDER the two GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS finally thought they had caught them, when all of a sudden AVA/LYSANDER noticed them and dodged out of the way of their grasp just in time. Running down the stairs, AVA/LYSANDER ran towards the entrance and exited the building. The two GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS ran down the stairs only a second after AVA/LYSANDER and just noticed them exit the building as they ran towards the entrance.

Reaching the entrance the two GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS stopped to see where AVA/LYSANDER had run to and find a way to somehow get in front of them and block them so they couldnt escape. H However they two GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS stared out at the area stunned, as they was no sign of AVA/LYSANDER anywhere. Fade Out.
