EXT. In the mountains- Morning
Over the mountains and far away in a cabin where a woman lives, she has the strangest cloak with a color of red. In the cool crisp air, its now autumn, the leaves dance with the wind. The Clouds fill the air with grays. This woman's name was once Blanchette known as red riding hood sitting in a swing on the front porch with a hot cup of tea, in her deep thoughts as she stared out in the woods.
Blanchette (V.O.)
It'll be another crispy day once again; there's moisture in the air. Umm, it’ll rain soon. I should get things ready before the cold rain hits. I should get the firewood read and the stew for tonight. And get something from the town.
While she was thinking that she should start right away, she didn’t want to get up, but she had to. So, she's preparing for the cold autumn to come, getting up from the swing and while heading inside.

Blanchette went to the kitchen and wrote out a list of supplies that she will be needing that autumn into the winter. As she went to get her bag and cloak and thought to herself
Blanchette (V.O.)
Umm, With this weather. I hope that it won’t rain, if it doesn’t the roads will be flooded. It will be hard to get back with a wagon. . . Umm, let’s be quick before that happens.
As Blanchette put on her cloak and closed and locked the door as she left. Few moments later she came across the road where not a lot of folks would travel. As the weather worsens, she quickly walked down the mountain where there was a small town.

As Blanchette came to the town, she went to the marketplace to get some supplies. She went into the store that sells herbs and medicine. Everyone in the town calls the owner of the store (old man or Old Gramps) . He is one of the elders in the town. But also, everyone calls Blanchette (red).
Old Man (V.O.)
Oh! Hello Red, how many I help you? Do you want some Melissa Officinalis that is also known as Lemon Balm? If you’re like me, the anxiety tends to settle right into your stomach. I do find myself unable to eat or eating emotionally, but whatever the case it. It’s kind of hard to do anything when your stomachs are in knots.
Blanchette (V.O.)
Hmm, maybe next time. I just need three wrapped Rosemary, 2 Ginger, and two bottles of Cloves and Peppermint.
Old Man (V.O)
Ah, I see. The old remedies. Let me go check if I still have them.
As the old man went to look if he had any herbs that Blanchette asked for. Soon after going into the back, he came back with a hand full of the herbs.
Old Man (V.O.)
Here you go Red. Is there anything else?
Blanchette (V.O.)
Thank You, nah I think this will do for now. I have to go. See you soon.
Old Man (V.O.)
Okay, be careful on your way back up the mountain. But you probably heard about what's all going on in the mountain?
Blanchette (V.O.)
No, I didn’t hear anything. What’s all going on, if you don’t mind me asking?
Old Man (V.O.)
Well, you see there's a lot of missing folks that were going into the Dark Forest but not coming out. I just don’t want you to be one of the missing. It might be a wolf, you know that story, correct?
Blanchette (V.O.)
Yes, I do know that story very well and thank you for your concern, I’ll be very cautious heading back home. (Deep Thought: Um, missing folks in the Dark Forest and the story about the big wolf who attacks people. Sigh. My house is on the border of the dark forest… I should head home asap. But I do need supplies.)
Different Shot
As Blanchette left the Herbal and medicine store and went to grab other supplies. It was already starting to get dark. So Blanchette got on to a wagon that was going to pass the road which she took that morning by foot. Once she got off the wagon and rushed back home with her supplies. As she got home. It was already starting to rain. Lighting across the skies She noticed that the front door she once locked before leaving was already open. As she slowly entered the house. She noticed there was blood and followed the trail. Once she got to the end of the trail in a study room. She slowly opened the door and saw a man on the floor unconscious. She rushed over to see if he was alive.
Blanchette (V.O.)
Good he got a pulse. How did he get into the house!?
Different Shot
Soon after Blanchette treated his injuries, she went downstairs to clean up the rest of the trail of blood and fixed the front door. And started to finish the cleaning and cooking while checking up on the injured man. The injured man woke up, while Blanchette put up a wet rag on his forehead.
Injured Man (V.O.)
Ugh, what happened? The last thing I remember was that. . .
Blanchette (V.O.)
Oh good, you’re awake. I was starting to get worried if you didn’t wake up any time soon.
Injured Man (V.O.)
Who are you? And where am I?
Blanchette (V.O.)
Well, my name is Blanchette but everyone back in town calls me Red and you’ve been asleep for about four days, and this is my cabin. I’ve found you in my study room in a pool of blood.
Injured man (V.O.)
I.…. I’ve. . . Been asleep for. . .four days. . .
Blanchette (V.O.)
Yes. . . You should still rest. If you don’t mind what is your name?
Injured man (V.O.)
I… don’t remember
While there was awkward silence between the two. Blanchette turned around as she was heading back out in the hallway.
Blanchette (V.O.)
Oh. That's a bummer.
But the injured man looked at Blanchette as she closed the door behind her and walked down the hallway. The footsteps slowly became quiet. The injured man talked to himself for a split second.
Injured man (V.O.)
I do know who I am, but in your eyes I’m just a monster. A big bad wolf who hurts Folks like you. What to do, what to do...(sigh)
Different shot
Few weeks has passed and his injures healed up. He helped Blanchette out around the cabin. Soon after the crisp air became crispy cool wintery air.
The Young man (V.O.)
Winter is almost here
Blanchette (V.O.)
Wait, how do you know that we’re going to have an early winter. We still have a few more months
The Young Man (V.O)
It’s just a hunch
Blanchette (V.O.)
Just a hunch, huh? Um, okay.
While the young man is trying to hide his wolf form from Blanchette. There is trouble lurking in the shadows.
