[Man continues to stare ahead, not acknowledging anything Bella says]
Bella: Where – Where are we by the way?
[Man turns to look at Bella]
Man: That is for me to know and you to find out Bella.
Bella: Well can you at least tell why we are out here.
[Man turns away from Bella]
Man: I think you should just be quiet and get out of the car.
Bella: Umm... O - Okay
[Man and Bella both get out of the car]
Man: Go and stand underneath that tree and wait there.
Bella: Fine I’m going
[Bella obeys and walks towards the tree]
Man: I will come over as soon as I’ve finished what I need to do.
[Man walks back towards the car and takes out a mobile phone, talks quietly into it]
Man: Yeah she’s here now, I’ll do it and then you can come and take care of her after I’ve finished.
[Man walks back over towards Bella]
Bella: Who were you talking to over there?
Man: Nobody important, just my mum.
Bella: Ah right okay. Its cold out here isn’t it?
[Man grunts his reply]
Man: Yeah.
Bella: W- Why are we out in the cold?
Man: Because (.) Because being in – in the car is just boring, so I thought that we should come and sit out here for a little bit.
Bella: Oh okay then. What shall we do then?
[Grunting again]
Man: Dunno.
[Man starts to look around suspiciously]
Bella: What are you looking for?
Man: Oh n- nothing in particular, it’s just that I heard that there was um, a fox around these woods somewhere. I think they got it though.
Bella: Well why did you bring us out here then?
Man: I just thought that we could look at the stars from outside rather than at the house.
[Man places his hand inside his pocket, and then quickly withdraws it. A cut has appeared on his hand]
Bella: [Gasps] What happened to your hand? I never noticed that before.
Man: Oh that? It- Its nothing. J- Just a cut from ages ago that has reopened.
Bella: Oh right.
Man: Why aren’t you lying down? You can see the stars better if you lie down.
[Bella lies down next to the man]
Man: I heard that there was a murderer who used to sleep in these woods a long time ago. I think they escaped and fled the country.
[Bella in a shocked voice]
Bella: Why did you bring us here then? It might be haunted with his victims.
Man: Nah, I- I’m pretty sure it isn’t. He buried them somewhere else apparently.
[Man begins to reach inside his pocket]
Bella: What is so interesting in your pocket? Only you keep putting your hand in there (?)
Man: It’s nothing, honestly.
[Bella remains silent, man pulls a knife out of his pocket]
Bella: Why have you got a knife in your pocket?
[A wry smile appears on the man’s face; he places his hand over Bella’s mouth and buries the blade into her heart]
