INT. WAREHOUSE - MOMENTS LATER

Thom, handcuffed, walks through a dirty warehouse. Boxes and
crates lay about. Lindsey, holding a shotgun, follows Thom.
Grigorov and Vlad, no longer hooded, walk a few yards away.

VLAD
I don't think this is necessary.

GRIGOROV
Your son is all that concerns us.

A group of vampires in burkas trail Vlad and Grigorov.



INT. WAREHOUSE - OFFICE - MOMENTS LATER

Grigorov and Vlad enter an office. Lindsey leads the
handcuffed Thom to the side of the room. Vampires spread out
and fill the room.

In the center of the room, the Smoker is tied up in a chair.
A few other people are tied up around the Smoker.

Thom and the Smoker make eye contact.

Grigorov walks in front of the Smoker.

GRIGOROV
Now, where were we? Yes, you were
about to tell us the location of
Mr. Draculovic's son.

SMOKER
I told you, I don't know. I'm just
a businessman.

THOM
But you might know someone who
knows. You're 7.59.

Everyone seems surprised.

SMOKER
You're helping them?

THOM
I just want the boy back home.

GRIGOROV
Then you will not mind if I do
this.

Grigorov darts at the Smoker and bites his neck.

THOM
No!

Grigorov pulls away from the Smoker, dripping blood from his
fangs.

Vlad looks shocked.

VLAD
What are you doing? You can't be
biting people! The Belial...

GRIGOROV
Do you wish to have your son back
or not.

The Smoker lifts his head. Blood drips from two wounds in
his neck and his eyes seem glazed over.

GRIGOROV (CONT'D)
Now, tell me where to find the boy.

SMOKER
I do not know.

GRIGOROV
Then take us to your comrades.

SMOKER
Yes, master.

Grigorov tears the ropes off the Smoker.

Grigorov and the Smoker move towards the door.

GRIGOROV
Convert the others.

The vampires remove syringes filled with blood and stab the
remaining people.

The people slump their heads.

A vampire lifts one of the people's heads, showing his glazed
over eyes. The vampire looks to Grigorov and nods.

GRIGOROV (CONT'D)
Excellent. Free them, take the
Effret out, and destroy him.

VLAD
Wait! He's not our enemy.

GRIGOROV
They are all our enemies.

Grigorov and the Smoker exit. Lindsey, some vampires, and
the other people follow.

Several Vampires grab Thom.

Thom opens his hand, releasing sparks.

The vampires jump back. Then they look at the sparks and
laugh.

Thom's eyes dart from side to side.

Thom and Vlad make eye contact.

Vlad frowns and puts his hood over his head.

Suddenly, with inhuman speed, Vlad darts at the vampires.
With a punch and a kick, the vampires and knocked against
walls and thrown to the ground.

Thom's eyes open wide.

Vlad grabs Thom and darts for the door.



INT. WAREHOUSE - DAY

Grigorov and his army of human drones move through the
warehouse.

Suddenly, Vlad, carrying Thom, appears from around a corner
and knocks down a few humans. However, a mass of vampires
and people stand between Vlad and the door.

Grigorov looks back at Vlad.

GRIGOROV
Vladimir!

Vlad's feet become shrouded and he jumps onto a crate.

Vlad jumps from crate to crate, darting through the air.

Several Vampire's float into the air with shrouded feet.

Vlad jumps onto a crate and stops. The floating vampires
block the exit.

GRIGOROV (CONT'D)
Be reasonable. Let us talk.

The shroud's on the Vampire's feet begins to fade.

Vlad, carrying Thom, shakes his head.

The Vampires begin to float towards the ground.

Vlad, carrying Thom and with shrouded feet, darts into the
air. Vlad goes over the Vampires, staying just out of their
reach.

Vlad lands and kicks open the door. Sunlight pours into the
warehouse.

Vampires quickly put on the hoods to their burkas.

Vlad, carrying Thom, darts out the door.

The Vampires move toward the door.

GRIGOROV (CONT'D)
Wait.

The Vampires stop.

GRIGOROV (CONT'D)
We have greater matters of concern.



EXT. WAREHOUSE - DAY

Vlad, carrying Thom, darts into the street and runs down the
sidewalk.

They jump over a car and continue running down the street.
