CUT TO:
EXT. THE STREET – DAY
Virginia walks down the street
with her new big hairdo from the hairdressers she has her little pet dog with
her and is wearing high heels and a skirt revealing her nice legs. Two fellas
reading the paper on the street whistle as she walks by.
VIRGINIA
Oh
fellas!
She
walks into Betty’s Diner and stops.
Aaaahhhh!!!
She looks
at a grey alien body dead on the diner table.
BETTY
Hi there.
We had the same initial reaction however after all the customers ran out, we
were left with this dinner patron so I would not count on any lunch just about
now.
VIRGINIA
What the hell is it??
BETTY
Well,
it’s some freak! Look at it it’s grey!
Ivan
enters the diner.
IVAN
Hello
ladies did I interrupt anything?
BETTY
Well,
some men ran in dumped this thing here and left. All our customers ran out two
did not pay! What the hell are we supposed to do with it?
VIRGINIA
It’s
disgusting!
IVAN
You are
charming your name?
VIRGINIA
(Holding
out her hand) Virginia White.
He kisses
her hand then opens her palm and kisses it then up her arm then looks at her
face and grabs her to kiss her.
VIRGINIA
Well,
aren’t you... where are you from any way?
IVAN
Moscow.
VIRGINA
I see.
BETTY
Strange
situation to find romance with that thing lying there. Odd you two.
IVAN
Let me
inspect the body. Lock the door.
Betty
runs to lock the door. Ivan moves to look at the ET.
It’s a
grey being from a flying saucer. We saw these in the sky in Russia
Heard rumors about them some had classified photos of these one
friend Brusky brought over good vodka one night and photos from his old
military post. Just like him here.
VIRGINIA
Really?
From a flying saucer! Well, I wonder what killed it?
IVAN
Shot down
likely.
BETTY
Look I’d better
call the cops. This thing can’t sit here.
IVAN
I have no
use for it wait. Perhaps we can sell it on the black market. Might be worth
some money.
VIRGINIA
How much
sweetie?
IVAN
A lot.
BETTY
I don’t
want to know about this. Just get it out of here.
IVAN
(Picking
the ET up and covering it with his coat). Come on Virginia, I’ll buy you
dinner.
Virginia
looks at him and Betty then follows Ivan.
CUT TO:
INT. IVAN’S SUITE – NIGHT
Virginia and Ivan sit in his
apartment in the living room and talk.
IVAN
Did you
enjoy dinner my dear?
VIRGINIA
Yes
delicious! What did you do with the body?
IVAN
Deep
freeze at the meat packers. He’s safe there will stay fresh. I’ll see if I can
get twenty g’s for him from some rich eccentric.
VIRGINIA
You
serious? 20 g’s?
IVAN
You and I
could go on a good holiday with that kind of cash.
His door
bell rings.
Who the
hell is that?
Ivan gets
the door and sees the two detectives standing there.
DETECTIVE HARRIS
Well Ivan
seems we got a call from Betty’s Diner. Seems a body is missing.
IVAN
What
body?
DETECTIVE
SMITH
A grey
alien.
Ivan
bursts out laughing and keeps laughing to a crescendo of near insanity.
IVAN
Grey
alien? Where? The woman is crazy!
DETECTIVE
SMITH
(Rubbing
his hair not so sure now) Well she seemed pretty certain a dead grey.
IVAN
Really?
And did she see little pink pigs running in after it and a lamb?
DETECTIVE
HARRIS
Now now
you don’t have to get funny with us we’re just following up on her statement.
IVAN
This is
the second time today you boys are disturbing me. If I, were you, I’d go get a
better lead for the other case you are neglecting? Messing with some crazy
woman’s story raving lunatic!
DETECTIVE
SMITH
Come on
Harry maybe she sensationalized something.
IVAN
Clearly!
The two
men look at him and Virginia who is bored now waiting for Ivan. They
leave.
He shuts
the door and closes his eyes in relief. He walks slowly as if in a trance
towards Virginia. He grabs her off the sofa and kisses her deeply. She looks at
him and kisses him back.
RETURN OF ALEXANDRIA a science fiction drama both stories by author Marilyn Starlight
CUT TO:
LAURA IS AT
TYRON’S HOUSE THEY ARE SITTING IN HIS LARGE LIVING ROOM AND HE HAS HIS
PRESENTATION OUT FOR HER TO SEE. TYRON WORK SIN THE MUSEUM WITH LAURA ON
SETTING UP THE EXHIBITS AND HAS RESERCH DUTY ALSO ON THE INFORMATION.
LAURA
Tyron you are quiet tonight.
TYRON
I had a dream all night that the symbols I was working on were
rotating in the room and opening into scenes telling a story. They became
living holographs that opened like keys to a library of any information on the
walls of the tombs and temples.
LAURA
Our soul is holographic that is the language it uses. That
is how cell division occurs we are a three-dimensional living holograph with
curled higher dimensions of vibrating levels of light and sound.
The Andromedans know this and may have engaged the ancient ones attracted to
the pyramids they built with shafts of light and the temple initiations be what
they are beneath the sphinx.
TYRON
The sphinx is a great mystery one of the most elaborate
underground initiation chambers ever built. Yet I sense later we will discover
something biting about it some ironic twist.
LAURA
Well, it was the meeting place of many, many great pharaohs the
ultimate initiation location of the Earth and for any who failed the embalming
area still remains where they moved the bodies to the tombs that is the nature
of the initiations they were the most advanced of all anywhere. I
remember some things as if I was there.
TYRON
Maybe you were.
LAURA
Yes, I was driven to study Egyptology my whole life as a little
girl I looked at books my uncle brought for me of the great jewels of the
Pharaohs. I was fascinated with them.
TYRON
Well, there is a man you should meet his name is Adam and he’s an
expert on the Armana period. He said there is a puzzle he had been
desiring to solve about that period and why Akhenaton deviated from the
traditional new more modern pyramid structures to the revival of the ziggurat
pyramid and what the mystery was of him and what went wrong causing the murder
of the pharaoh and his family.
LAURA
Sounds fascinating.
TYRON
I have his card. He wanted to meet you.
LAURA
Thanks. (Looks at the card).
TYRON
He says he has a collection of information on this he’d like to
publish and was looking for a publisher or another scholar who had access to a
publisher.
LAURA
My publishing house likely is why we are meeting. I’ll call
him tomorrow, Tyron. So how about you?
TYRON
I’m decoding the hieroglyphs in ways that are defying traditional
history Laura.
LAURA
Yes, someone should it’s filled with inconsistencies.
TYRON
Yes of course it is. Just look any historical archive it’s
ridiculous there are hundreds sometimes thousands of years missing from one
commentary to another I can’t believe the inaccuracies. In college I felt as if
we were in a brain washing cult accepting these sordid incorrect dates.
LAURA
Yes. Interesting isn’t it?
TYRON
Not really if you say anything to the professor and he looks at
you blankly and has no answer regarding this like a conspiracy.
LAURA
Well, I’m glad you tackled the issue. The goddess wears the
lotus symbol carved over the breasts in Armana.
TYRON
Yes. Nefertiti did.
LAURA
Andromeda is the triangular holographic wielding race that has
technology based on the hyperspace dimensions of the triangle and its
applications in engineering of space flight.
TYRON
And what of the Pleiades?
LAURA
Well Tyron we have to look at the architecture of Earth for any
influences as well to be fair for if you look at the Persian empire which is a
real dichotomy in its politics that was male dominant we have the repetition of
the rounded structures of the space craft they fly and also the geometries of
the meiotic egg of the woman on the ceilings of temples painted there. I think
if they did not get it andromedans did the man as goddess to be her to
understand however then they got stuck in codependent subversively sometimes.
TYRON
Aha yes that makes sense. Also why you are interested in
Egyptology as a way of life. Yes, the
rest is biological revelation.
He laughs a hardy laugh.
LAURA
Yes, and I have had years of study on the topic to my PHD and it
never leaves me like the bones of a great goddess arisen to do the work in
modern times is how I feel sometimes about my work Tyron.
TYRON
I need a holographic rotation representation of these symbols to
tell a story I ways it has never been told before.
LAURA
Oh 3-D would be cool.
TYRON
Maybe we should do it in 3-D. Why not? It’s not a
monopoly for munchkins.
LAURA
Tyron what about you? When did you get bitten with all this?
TYRON
I had a fight with a local during a dig who read the hieroglyphs
according to an old text where the measurements for the initiations for the
Lands were not accurate it’s all, ‘Egyptian religion this goddess cult that.’
LAURA
Yes, it’s very simplistic the translation isn’t it like a way of
life almost like primitive people basket weaving with some agriculture and
mysterious religion not really connecting the information correctly is it?
TYRON
No. It’s maddening.
