RAYMOND is reading a newspaper until DERIC, another security guard, enters. Deric Hows it going, guy? Raymond Its going good, man. How about yourself? DERIC Cant complain. RAYMOND Hows the wife? DERIC Shes doing well now that shes over her cold. She spent most of last week wearing a dust mask to keep from passing it off to me. (both laugh) RAYMOND looks at his watch. RAYMOND Here a little early arent you? DERIC Yeah, well, its only a few minutes til midnight. You can go ahead and leave if you want. Ill promise not to tattle. RAYMOND Thats cool with me. RAYMOND gets up from the desk. DERIC takes RAYMONDs place and sits down at the desk. DERIC is sorting through paperwork thats on the desk as RAYMOND is gathering his belongings. DERIC Hey Raymond. RAYMOND Yeah? DERIC Have you ever... never mind. RAYMOND Whats up, Deric? DERIC Its nothing really. (Pause) I was just going ask if you have ever notice anything strange going on around here. RAYMOND Not really. DERIC Well, like it said, its nothing important. RAYMOND Have you been seeing strange things? DERIC Well Ive... well, I dont... I dont know if I can say Ive seen anything strange going on. RAYMOND Umm, okay. What have you been seeing? DERIC Well, for the past week Ive notice certain things happening that I cant really explain. It could be that Im just losing it from working third shift all the time. RAYMOND Well, whats been going on? DERIC For starters, when Im making my rounds I check for stuff like lights being left on. I keep finding them being left on when I couldve sworn I turned them off. RAYMOND (sarcasm) Wow, that is some weird shit. (apologetic) Im sorry. Are you sure someone isnt coming in and turning them back on? DERIC I wondered that at first, but Im the only one here on third shift. If you check the records, no one has come in to do work in over a month. RAYMOND Maybe its a short or something thats turning the lights back on. DERIC The lights come back on as soon as I leave the room! It cannot be an electrical shortage causing that to happen. Besides, you havent heard the real strange part. For the past three nights I have found a water puddle and every time I go to get a wet floor sign I come back to find the puddle gone! Im the only person here! RAYMOND I dont know what to tell you, man. That does sound a little weird. If you want, I can look out for the same stuff on my shift. DERIC (sigh) Thats okay. You dont have to do that. RAYMOND Well, maybe you really are working too much. It has been a while since youve taken a vacation. DERIC That is true. I probably am just getting a little burned out. Forget I said anything. You have a good night, Raymond. RAYMOND I will. And you take it easy, Deric, alright? DERIC Ill try. See ya. RAYMOND See ya. RAYMOND exits. DERIC shuffles through paperwork, lights flicker. DERIC looks up at the lights. Theres a echoing thud. DERIC Aw hell, not again. He stands up and pulls out a flashlight. The further DERIC walks away from his desk, the more the lights dim. When the lights completely fade out, theres another echoing thud. DERIC turns his flashlight on. DERIC (CONTD) Whos there? He shines the light towards the audience scanning the area. The lights flicker on. GHOST is behind DERIC. The lights flicker off and DERICs flashlight dies. DERIC (CONTD) Shit! During this moment, actors in the audience will cover their faces with masks and assume their roles as phantoms (this will require at least 3-5 actors to get the desired effect). The lights flicker back on and GHOST is still behind DERIC. The phantoms in the audience rise and make their way towards DERIC. As they creep closer to him, DERIC is stepping backwards until he bumps into GHOST. He turns around to find GHOST and screams as he falls backwards. DERIC (CONTD) Holy shit! GHOST Whats wrong? Are you not happy to see me? DERIC Wha- who are you? GHOST Im hurt. Has it really been that long since we last saw each other? DERIC Is this some kind of joke? It was you! Youre the one thats been messing with the lights and doing that - disappearing thing with the water, werent you? GHOST Maybe. DERIC Well, I didnt find it funny! GHOST Ive missed you. DERIC Dont change the subject! GHOST Have you missed me? DERIC Uh, Im not sure if I can say that. Do I know you or something? GHOST Ive missed you a lot. What we had was so wonderful. It was always so exciting when we would meet at our favorite hotel. DERIC What? GHOST You know, the hotel with the sleeping bear in its sign. What was its name? DERIC (pause) The Cozy Cottage. GHOST Yeah, that its. I liked the way the sheets felt. It never took me long to fall asleep on those beds. DERIC Is it... is it really you? Oh my God. Vanessa? GHOST Ah, you do remember me. I guess its been awhile since you last saw me. DERIC But youre dead. GHOST Unfortunatley. DERIC Im... so sorry. None of that should have ever happened. Youd still be alive if I hadnt - GHOST Overreacted? I guess you did. Though, I do understand that your wife would have been quite upset to have found out that I was pregnant with your child. DERIC None of that was supposed to have happen. I should have been more careful. Our affair shouldnt have ever happened. GHOST To be fair, I was persistent. You could only resist for so long. DERIC I should never have had anything to do with you. Im sorry! Alright? If I could bring you back I would. Killing you was not the answer. But what can I do? Im sorry. GHOST Thats okay, I forgive you. We can still be together, though. Your wife doesnt even have to know. Just come with me. Youll see. Phantoms close in around DERIC. DERIC Oh God! No! Please, dont! NOOO! Phantoms completely surround DERIC and lights slowly fade to black as he is still screaming. A flashlight turns on. The lights flicker on. GHOST is alone. She smiles. The lights flicker off. The lights flicker back on and GHOST is gone. Fade to black.
