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?567Please respect copyright.PENANANwnwZcw3nz
Veronica: Yes, he does.567Please respect copyright.PENANAQPTSnaVwRC
Johnny/SVF: *scoffs, then chuckles*567Please respect copyright.PENANATN2iHOa8j5
Veronica: What?567Please respect copyright.PENANAreuo7nmsAs
Johnny/SVF: Ah, nothing. What you said just makes Satan sound like a pansy-ass.567Please respect copyright.PENANAEAzGzemcvl
Veronica: *snickers* I honestly didn’t think you had any sense of humor.567Please respect copyright.PENANA9exjcEm6DM
Johnny/SVF: Well, you thought wrong.567Please respect copyright.PENANA8HFAffaPd8
Veronica: *chuckles slightly*567Please respect copyright.PENANAgQw0vtmY4i
Johnny/SVF: *sighs* Well, now what?567Please respect copyright.PENANAKXDjgKqcbZ
Veronica: I… don’t know.567Please respect copyright.PENANAoPm0WSKELl
Johnny/SVF: What do you usually do when you’re bored?567Please respect copyright.PENANAloU4nEbty2
Veronica: Sometimes I go out on a walk and clear my head, especially if I’m stressed out about something.567Please respect copyright.PENANA47LrqUwKzb
Johnny/SVF: What stresses you out?567Please respect copyright.PENANA7Lliz06g3M
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.567Please respect copyright.PENANAsKXaqjtHTA
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?567Please respect copyright.PENANAdEiJYM7zOR
Veronica: Oh. That’s Xavier Willow.567Please respect copyright.PENANACBmr4WGX3G
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.567Please respect copyright.PENANAGT0E0IxYGR
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.567Please respect copyright.PENANAswEIRmVbgb
Johnny/SVF: He sounds like quite a player to me.567Please respect copyright.PENANAZVxpCgg3e7
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.567Please respect copyright.PENANAyv1ZWjelFE
Johnny/SVF: He’s being a dumbass then by totally ignoring you.567Please respect copyright.PENANAvYu8Wx3hnU
Veronica: That’s what it sounds like.567Please respect copyright.PENANAel9UQ3u77p
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*567Please respect copyright.PENANAGayuxQeIPW
Veronica: Wait, you’re leaving? I thought you said you needed a place to stay!567Please respect copyright.PENANAs9F2BEEjCm
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*567Please respect copyright.PENANAJAPLNmALZB
Veronica: *sighs* He is definitely one of the strangest people I’ve ever met. Even stranger than Andrew.567Please respect copyright.PENANAWVBfqjorBy
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*567Please respect copyright.PENANAosi0GhleK0
Johnny/SVF: *voiceover, echoing* There’s something about you. Something keeping me from taking your life.567Please respect copyright.PENANAaHyT1C4Jgw
Veronica: *shakes her head slightly, then sighs as she walks down the sidewalk*567Please respect copyright.PENANAh6h9ueWfkd
Johnny/SVF: *voiceover, echoing* Something about you…567Please respect copyright.PENANA1bKKa5PMgk
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*567Please respect copyright.PENANARjUdbKxSkH
Demon 2/Martin: *chuckles quietly*567Please respect copyright.PENANAyNUJQe2hLD
Veronica: *gasps lightly* Hello? *takes a few steps into the alleyway* Is someone there?567Please respect copyright.PENANAKYdK8If5GC
Demon 2/Martin: *grabs Veronica and holds his hand over her mouth* Hello there, darling.567Please respect copyright.PENANA1PM3aSdKiJ
Veronica: *struggles to make Martin release her*567Please respect copyright.PENANAhpdGctq7aQ
Demon 2/Martin: Don’t bother fighting back, dear. It’ll only make things harder for me.567Please respect copyright.PENANAD2whcWZuqu
Veronica: *muffled screams*567Please respect copyright.PENANAdyGsBTACG6
Demon 2/Martin: *laughs sinisterly*567Please respect copyright.PENANAvJg4POK3dL
Johnny/SVF: *grabs Martin’s shoulders and turns him around, making him release Veronica* Hi there, Martin! *slams Martin against a wall behind him*567Please respect copyright.PENANACxlEtt9tJH
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!567Please respect copyright.PENANAOkj0TTeov7
Johnny/SVF: *looks at Veronica*567Please respect copyright.PENANAOXD7Enptmr
Veronica: *stands against the other wall, terrified and breathing rapidly*567Please respect copyright.PENANAwz6BxbqfNh
Johnny/SVF: *looks back at Martin* If you want her, you're going through me.567Please respect copyright.PENANAnZAYR5MdoR
Demon 2/Martin: *sighs* Fine then. *enforces his claws and slashes SVF across the face*567Please respect copyright.PENANA0sI5Wuuiax
Johnny/SVF: *shouts and growls*567Please respect copyright.PENANAI686FAUL3O
Demon 2/Martin: *swings his claws at SVF*567Please respect copyright.PENANAtrYS6YZJVu
Johnny/SVF: *catches Martin’s claws, headbutts him, then knees him in the stomach*567Please respect copyright.PENANAKMatZfpi2S
Demon 2/Martin: *groans in pain*567Please respect copyright.PENANADMfq73vX3i
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*567Please respect copyright.PENANAG3oavPxuoK
Demon 2/Martin: *falls over dead and vanishes*567Please respect copyright.PENANAGAscv9YZ83
Johnny/SVF: *turns towards Veronica* Are you okay? Did he do anything to you?567Please respect copyright.PENANA3YFgRAj0e3
Veronica: *stutters* No. I’m okay. *hugs SVF* Thank you. *stops hugging SVF*567Please respect copyright.PENANAPdSQhWWlSR
Johnny/SVF: No problem. Those guys are really starting to piss me off.567Please respect copyright.PENANAZexkwyidDI
Veronica: Same here.567Please respect copyright.PENANAOoP2kXGNjU
Johnny/SVF: By the way, while I was walking, before I came and saved your life, I heard this deep… voice.567Please respect copyright.PENANAuEmAO2AfyV
Veronica: Wait, are you serious?!567Please respect copyright.PENANAatNKxGBEgc
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.”567Please respect copyright.PENANA5TDxMKXLjw
Veronica: That was James 4:7! God was speaking to you!567Please respect copyright.PENANAQSyJ1it29q
Johnny/SVF: In all honesty, I feel like I would never have heard God if I didn’t run into you.567Please respect copyright.PENANACZ03PYpqVC
Veronica: The Big Man works in some pretty mysterious ways, as people say it.567Please respect copyright.PENANAzWe0WlpmXD
Johnny/SVF: *scoffs* We should probably head back to your house before we run into another demon or something.567Please respect copyright.PENANA48d6prVdPe
Veronica: Good call.567Please respect copyright.PENANA2JcHNd7vIg
