Scene 4 opens with SVF walking up to Veronica’s house
Johnny/SVF: *knocks on Veronica’s front door*
Veronica: *opens the front door, then sighs* Really? You again?
Johnny/SVF: Yes, really. Now, may I please come inside and maybe stay here for the night?
Veronica: Why?
Johnny/SVF: These demons keep telling me Satan is gonna come after me and try to send me to Hell if I don’t do my job and kill you, and I’ve already failed to do my job several times. So, you don’t have to worry about me trying to kill you anymore.
Veronica: What a relief. *sighs* Sure, you can stay here, but just for tonight.
Johnny/SVF: Thank you. *walks inside Veronica’s house, then winces and shakes his head momentarily*
Veronica: *closes the front door and looks at SVF shaking his head* Is something wrong?
Johnny/SVF: I feel… odd… *grabs his head* I think it’s because *winces* I’m in your house, where God is put above everything else.
Veronica: Sounds like Satan doesn’t want you here. He’s trying to control you.
Johnny/SVF: No shit.
Veronica: Didn’t you say that Satan wanted you to kill the Christians you come across?
Johnny/SVF: Yeah, but… there’s something about you. Something keeping me from taking your life.
Veronica: You said you know who God is, right?
Johnny/SVF: Yeah, why?
Veronica: He’s protecting me. God and I have a strong relationship with each other.
Johnny/SVF: You have a strong “relationship” with God? How is that even possible?!
Veronica: Have you heard of the Bible?
Johnny/SVF: I might have when I was Johnny, but I don’t recall it.
Veronica: Here. *pulls a Bible off of a nearby shelf* Come sit down. *sits on the couch in living room*
Johnny/SVF: *sits on couch next to Veronica*
Veronica: *opens up the Bible*
Johnny/SVF: Are you gonna read my a bedtime story or something?
Veronica: *sighs with frustration* I’m going to read you some verses that focus on Satan.
Johnny/SVF: The Bible has… “verses” that focus on Satan himself?
Veronica: Yes, they do. *flips to John 8:44* It says, ‘You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.’
Johnny/SVF: *scoffs* Well, I can’t say I’m surprised about the murderer part, but I honestly didn’t know that Satan holds the title “Father of Lies.”
Veronica: There’s more where that came from. *flips to James 4:7* This one says, ‘Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.’
Johnny/SVF: Satan will flee from you when you resist him?600Please respect copyright.PENANAma0YbuAEsB
Veronica: Yes, he does.600Please respect copyright.PENANA1YKBTxtRJM
Johnny/SVF: *scoffs, then chuckles*600Please respect copyright.PENANAYgeWnnTodt
Veronica: What?600Please respect copyright.PENANAg628IQpp65
Johnny/SVF: Ah, nothing. What you said just makes Satan sound like a pansy-ass.600Please respect copyright.PENANAEWzytVz0UR
Veronica: *snickers* I honestly didn’t think you had any sense of humor.600Please respect copyright.PENANAXRhU2poOUW
Johnny/SVF: Well, you thought wrong.600Please respect copyright.PENANAEhJXNNAVRa
Veronica: *chuckles slightly*600Please respect copyright.PENANABb5WnitnEN
Johnny/SVF: *sighs* Well, now what?600Please respect copyright.PENANAa6Rgg8CLRf
Veronica: I… don’t know.600Please respect copyright.PENANAXstOJXosag
Johnny/SVF: What do you usually do when you’re bored?600Please respect copyright.PENANAMlmXR21LjQ
Veronica: Sometimes I go out on a walk and clear my head, especially if I’m stressed out about something.600Please respect copyright.PENANA0ENEjfTou0
Johnny/SVF: What stresses you out?600Please respect copyright.PENANAPGbHBc8V0O
Veronica: School, having to live alone, and a lot of other things I could name off, but you’d probably die listening to me babble on and on about it.600Please respect copyright.PENANAQFIIoXVZJy
Johnny/SVF: *scoffs* And I’ve been meaning to ask you this, but who the hell was that one jockey dude that was running his mouth at me a while ago?600Please respect copyright.PENANABvICvQBTMh
Veronica: Oh. That’s Xavier Willow.600Please respect copyright.PENANACNxvgpta4g
Johnny/SVF: Is he your boyfriend or something? Give me a short answer because I’m not in the mood for some damn monologuing right now.600Please respect copyright.PENANANkhVj250N1
Veronica: First of all, ew! He’s not my boyfriend! He’s just some dude who’s stereotyping himself as the rude and self-centered jockey that all the cheerleaders love.600Please respect copyright.PENANA6v82zISbj6
Johnny/SVF: He sounds like quite a player to me.600Please respect copyright.PENANAZsqKSpvd4z
Veronica: Well, he is. He can’t seem to stop dating the girls there. I’m one of the only ones he hasn’t dated because I’ve told him no on countless times.600Please respect copyright.PENANAqTu4leW3mS
Johnny/SVF: He’s being a dumbass then by totally ignoring you.600Please respect copyright.PENANAyGcIuM88kB
Veronica: That’s what it sounds like.600Please respect copyright.PENANAI6RuQ0b9KJ
Johnny/SVF: Alrighty, I’ve got nothing else to talk about so, I’m just gonna head out. *stands up and walks towards the front door*600Please respect copyright.PENANA205GyH49CX
Veronica: Wait, you’re leaving? I thought you said you needed a place to stay!600Please respect copyright.PENANAJH3ZtrJDzv
Johnny/SVF: I’m gonna go for a walk… clear my mind, just like you do… and see if it works with me. *opens the front door, walks outside, then shuts it*600Please respect copyright.PENANAokVkck2l6e
Veronica: *sighs* He is definitely one of the strangest people I’ve ever met. Even stranger than Andrew.600Please respect copyright.PENANAGrbDDiW63j
Veronica: *finishes reading her Bible, closes it, and stands up from her couch* Alright, better walk before it gets too dark. *puts her Bible back on her bookshelf, puts her shoes on and her jacket, then opens the front door, walks outside and shuts it*600Please respect copyright.PENANAxsvrXm58rY
Johnny/SVF: *voiceover, echoing* There’s something about you. Something keeping me from taking your life.600Please respect copyright.PENANAX9CJ3rXSHT
Veronica: *shakes her head slightly, then sighs as she walks down the sidewalk*600Please respect copyright.PENANAPGQmAbqhhh
Johnny/SVF: *voiceover, echoing* Something about you…600Please respect copyright.PENANAzaOB5Dqjv0
Veronica: *breathes* God, there’s something about this… Johnny guy that really intrigues me and I’m getting the feeling that You really want me to teach him more about who You are. *approaches an alleyway and stops walking as she looks down it*600Please respect copyright.PENANAYLH0wGvmHy
Demon 2/Martin: *chuckles quietly*600Please respect copyright.PENANAWYFFScFTiP
Veronica: *gasps lightly* Hello? *takes a few steps into the alleyway* Is someone there?600Please respect copyright.PENANA2XvbqE1OHc
Demon 2/Martin: *grabs Veronica and holds his hand over her mouth* Hello there, darling.600Please respect copyright.PENANAxBJT66bR7P
Veronica: *struggles to make Martin release her*600Please respect copyright.PENANAIXuXbL2rUV
Demon 2/Martin: Don’t bother fighting back, dear. It’ll only make things harder for me.600Please respect copyright.PENANAKea0BjwldP
Veronica: *muffled screams*600Please respect copyright.PENANAeNsRtvOMhT
Demon 2/Martin: *laughs sinisterly*600Please respect copyright.PENANANYcZQCsEeZ
Johnny/SVF: *grabs Martin’s shoulders and turns him around, making him release Veronica* Hi there, Martin! *slams Martin against a wall behind him*600Please respect copyright.PENANA9YeM0BnFx7
Demon 2/Martin: *groans in pain* I told you! If you didn’t take care of her that I’d take it into my own hands!600Please respect copyright.PENANAihMmwULVoc
Johnny/SVF: *looks at Veronica*600Please respect copyright.PENANAlWNfwi4wd7
Veronica: *stands against the other wall, terrified and breathing rapidly*600Please respect copyright.PENANAMuES95rQxh
Johnny/SVF: *looks back at Martin* If you want her, you're going through me.600Please respect copyright.PENANAvCQyZrZLnn
Demon 2/Martin: *sighs* Fine then. *enforces his claws and slashes SVF across the face*600Please respect copyright.PENANArPX6t9DFqn
Johnny/SVF: *shouts and growls*600Please respect copyright.PENANAI36nuepWQF
Demon 2/Martin: *swings his claws at SVF*600Please respect copyright.PENANA5sNxvPu3Xh
Johnny/SVF: *catches Martin’s claws, headbutts him, then knees him in the stomach*600Please respect copyright.PENANAfNzP6QqZyU
Demon 2/Martin: *groans in pain*600Please respect copyright.PENANA2jZGODbMjh
Johnny/SVF: You know, I’ve been thinking about it, and it seems like Satan doesn’t want to do all this work himself because he thinks you guys won’t fail him. *scoffs* Looks like he was wrong. *slashes Martin across the chest*600Please respect copyright.PENANA1uA24tHdqz
Demon 2/Martin: *falls over dead and vanishes*600Please respect copyright.PENANAdpBqj7qQiw
Johnny/SVF: *turns towards Veronica* Are you okay? Did he do anything to you?600Please respect copyright.PENANACiaxysfXvE
Veronica: *stutters* No. I’m okay. *hugs SVF* Thank you. *stops hugging SVF*600Please respect copyright.PENANApUlFZWxrzh
Johnny/SVF: No problem. Those guys are really starting to piss me off.600Please respect copyright.PENANALiLjo2dXq6
Veronica: Same here.600Please respect copyright.PENANAHYoqpsOyy6
Johnny/SVF: By the way, while I was walking, before I came and saved your life, I heard this deep… voice.600Please respect copyright.PENANA4Vaq1aSgw2
Veronica: Wait, are you serious?!600Please respect copyright.PENANAQuopFGHZbO
Johnny/SVF: Yeah. I’m almost convinced that… maybe it was God talking to me, but I couldn’t really make out what the voice was saying. It sounded a bit like “Resist the devil. He will flee from you.”600Please respect copyright.PENANACd9oFbxHIq
Veronica: That was James 4:7! God was speaking to you!600Please respect copyright.PENANANFMIWzIoLE
Johnny/SVF: In all honesty, I feel like I would never have heard God if I didn’t run into you.600Please respect copyright.PENANAvWVaX8XyPn
Veronica: The Big Man works in some pretty mysterious ways, as people say it.600Please respect copyright.PENANAPQZDeKankN
Johnny/SVF: *scoffs* We should probably head back to your house before we run into another demon or something.600Please respect copyright.PENANAGEbk3rcsg9
Veronica: Good call.600Please respect copyright.PENANAJxciimsDl6
