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?586Please respect copyright.PENANAuil3vPMDUM
Veronica: Yes, he does.586Please respect copyright.PENANA090jglGrPb
Johnny/SVF: *scoffs, then chuckles*586Please respect copyright.PENANAUPzHNVNQi1
Veronica: What?586Please respect copyright.PENANAGLuMr6d3Cg
Johnny/SVF: Ah, nothing. What you said just makes Satan sound like a pansy-ass.586Please respect copyright.PENANAqvqp9ZsSbF
Veronica: *snickers* I honestly didn’t think you had any sense of humor.586Please respect copyright.PENANAupaxtDsPnc
Johnny/SVF: Well, you thought wrong.586Please respect copyright.PENANAXZqzv6dwsh
Veronica: *chuckles slightly*586Please respect copyright.PENANAYnS75edpmB
Johnny/SVF: *sighs* Well, now what?586Please respect copyright.PENANAXW7KtqcKtu
Veronica: I… don’t know.586Please respect copyright.PENANALQIFBRghR2
Johnny/SVF: What do you usually do when you’re bored?586Please respect copyright.PENANANE8Hi6dSat
Veronica: Sometimes I go out on a walk and clear my head, especially if I’m stressed out about something.586Please respect copyright.PENANA0FSagBHjGQ
Johnny/SVF: What stresses you out?586Please respect copyright.PENANA8HWf62GQnZ
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.586Please respect copyright.PENANAmqjUctun53
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?586Please respect copyright.PENANARyW3ePnm61
Veronica: Oh. That’s Xavier Willow.586Please respect copyright.PENANA7K0nK26nsS
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.586Please respect copyright.PENANAvQytqKhs8g
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.586Please respect copyright.PENANAXeGF4yLyGO
Johnny/SVF: He sounds like quite a player to me.586Please respect copyright.PENANAyIbMn64Wh6
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.586Please respect copyright.PENANAA2weJUooa9
Johnny/SVF: He’s being a dumbass then by totally ignoring you.586Please respect copyright.PENANAKLKfAn5R1R
Veronica: That’s what it sounds like.586Please respect copyright.PENANAYmTolK2HAu
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*586Please respect copyright.PENANAd5WjY4FYwV
Veronica: Wait, you’re leaving? I thought you said you needed a place to stay!586Please respect copyright.PENANAn8taFcUCxl
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*586Please respect copyright.PENANAh64PA8vLBw
Veronica: *sighs* He is definitely one of the strangest people I’ve ever met. Even stranger than Andrew.586Please respect copyright.PENANAGMSIwQGEWo
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*586Please respect copyright.PENANAHyOb2juTBg
Johnny/SVF: *voiceover, echoing* There’s something about you. Something keeping me from taking your life.586Please respect copyright.PENANAmdU45vZ7jO
Veronica: *shakes her head slightly, then sighs as she walks down the sidewalk*586Please respect copyright.PENANASD1VlvajCS
Johnny/SVF: *voiceover, echoing* Something about you…586Please respect copyright.PENANA7OyTHNiTFc
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*586Please respect copyright.PENANA0CQgBTPtTT
Demon 2/Martin: *chuckles quietly*586Please respect copyright.PENANAYjxGmS67AM
Veronica: *gasps lightly* Hello? *takes a few steps into the alleyway* Is someone there?586Please respect copyright.PENANAaGWlsE3OJ1
Demon 2/Martin: *grabs Veronica and holds his hand over her mouth* Hello there, darling.586Please respect copyright.PENANAHczRIcJ6g7
Veronica: *struggles to make Martin release her*586Please respect copyright.PENANALUwDmKk8Pa
Demon 2/Martin: Don’t bother fighting back, dear. It’ll only make things harder for me.586Please respect copyright.PENANAouXhgOQQHS
Veronica: *muffled screams*586Please respect copyright.PENANAIt9iMZ8FBB
Demon 2/Martin: *laughs sinisterly*586Please respect copyright.PENANAS6Qvh0vRsV
Johnny/SVF: *grabs Martin’s shoulders and turns him around, making him release Veronica* Hi there, Martin! *slams Martin against a wall behind him*586Please respect copyright.PENANAWxHNsrHaJU
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!586Please respect copyright.PENANAIn4H4jpAWL
Johnny/SVF: *looks at Veronica*586Please respect copyright.PENANAxqJKTCf22j
Veronica: *stands against the other wall, terrified and breathing rapidly*586Please respect copyright.PENANA0GWXBUipWx
Johnny/SVF: *looks back at Martin* If you want her, you're going through me.586Please respect copyright.PENANAI751HMGPR6
Demon 2/Martin: *sighs* Fine then. *enforces his claws and slashes SVF across the face*586Please respect copyright.PENANAyjUQ9B1b6l
Johnny/SVF: *shouts and growls*586Please respect copyright.PENANAw1qEnXLHCN
Demon 2/Martin: *swings his claws at SVF*586Please respect copyright.PENANAFqOQX4y6Dp
Johnny/SVF: *catches Martin’s claws, headbutts him, then knees him in the stomach*586Please respect copyright.PENANADfTvBPD9HP
Demon 2/Martin: *groans in pain*586Please respect copyright.PENANAXdUuDEsnaf
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*586Please respect copyright.PENANAphoW8yMyt1
Demon 2/Martin: *falls over dead and vanishes*586Please respect copyright.PENANAKRP39fFozE
Johnny/SVF: *turns towards Veronica* Are you okay? Did he do anything to you?586Please respect copyright.PENANA6TzhVu8E3j
Veronica: *stutters* No. I’m okay. *hugs SVF* Thank you. *stops hugging SVF*586Please respect copyright.PENANAWfJ2ZiJAsM
Johnny/SVF: No problem. Those guys are really starting to piss me off.586Please respect copyright.PENANAvVUVaoXF16
Veronica: Same here.586Please respect copyright.PENANAkivXfsJxNL
Johnny/SVF: By the way, while I was walking, before I came and saved your life, I heard this deep… voice.586Please respect copyright.PENANAFiZncpzZiT
Veronica: Wait, are you serious?!586Please respect copyright.PENANAMFEO0Ss4M3
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.”586Please respect copyright.PENANA5Ackhp6EQ3
Veronica: That was James 4:7! God was speaking to you!586Please respect copyright.PENANAkh0puGhBTu
Johnny/SVF: In all honesty, I feel like I would never have heard God if I didn’t run into you.586Please respect copyright.PENANAwRwEa0TcuB
Veronica: The Big Man works in some pretty mysterious ways, as people say it.586Please respect copyright.PENANAPHwk05XCWC
Johnny/SVF: *scoffs* We should probably head back to your house before we run into another demon or something.586Please respect copyright.PENANAlWQsw5m2JN
Veronica: Good call.586Please respect copyright.PENANA5ZAq0rxK3c
