An Omega Kid Christmas: Part 6

Previous Chapters: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5


LAST TIME ON THE OMEGA KID: Despite Alfie's best laid plans, The Omega Kid's friends took to the skies in the spirit of Saint Nick, bringing more goodwill that ever. But it was the Omega Kid's own declaration of belief that finished tilting the scale in their favor, releasing the one and only Santa Claus! And now, the conclusion...



EXT. NORTH POLE - NIGHT
Alfie lays in the snow, seemingly helpless, looking up at The Omega Kid and Santa Claus. He reaches into his diaper and whips out a laser gun. He fires it at Santa! 

ALFIE
Die Claus! Die!

Previous Chapters: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4


LAST TIME ON THE OMEGA KID: The Omega Kid faced off against Alfie in an icy sanctuary beneath the North Pole. With his amazing intellect, Alfie tricked The Omega Kid into increasing the size of the throne-capacitor that holds "Santa Claus" before capturing the hero in unbreakable chains. But luckily Lawrence managed to escape...


INT. JERRY'S APARTMENT - NIGHT


Jerry and Dania sit, alone, drinking coffee.

DANIA
I hate this part.

JERRY
You mean when they're off saving the world and we're left alone?

DANIA
Yes.

JERRY
It's my favorite part.

Then: A KNOCK AT THE WINDOW. Dania runs to it. She opens the blinds to see Lawrence's face pressed up against the glass.

LAWRENCE
(muffled)
Let me in!

INT. JERRY'S APARTMENT

DANIA
No. You're staying here with us.

LAWRENCE
I'm not missing my chance to meet Santa Claus. Imagine all the presents we'll get if we save him!

JERRY
What a lovely way to look at it.

LAWRENCE
Tell 'em, Rick.

RICK
It will be safer here.

Lawrence looks at all three of them. They look back. He furrows his brow and stands his ground.

LAWRENCE
I'm going and that's that.

An Omega Kid Christmas: Part 3

Previous Chapters: 1 | 2

LAST TIME ON THE OMEGA KID: The Omega Kid valiantly fought off Alfie and his pet monster, Blargh, after they launched a Christmas Eve attacked on a department store. As the villianous baby high tailed it to the North Pole in search of Santa Claus, Jerry dropped a bombshell on Rick: Saint Nick may not be a myth after all. And now, the Secret Origin of Santa Claus!



INT. JERRY'S APARTMENT - EVENING
Jerry's apartment is on the 25th floor of a high rise on the East Side. The view from his windows is beautiful.


Jerry is sitting in his comfortable chair. The boys are next to him. DANIA WALLACE (30's, hip but nerdy) has joined them. There's a tray of cookies and hot chocolate. Rick sips his chocolate, Lawrence helps himself to three cookies.

LAWRENCE
Ok, so about these presents.

RICK
Enough with the presents, dude.

LAWRENCE
Fine, fine.

RICK
Can you please explain what's going on? Alfie's going to the North Pole. Big deal. Maybe he'll catch a cold. Good.

JERRY
Unless, of course, he actually manages to capture Santa Claus.

Rick and Lawrence dash through the store. Rick leads, Lawrence hustles to keep up, huffing and puffing behind him. As they pass a display of the newest and latest games, Lawrence stops. He looks at all the games, entranced.

LAWRENCE
Awesome... I want them all...

Rick doubles back and drags him away by the elbow.

RICK
No time!

Lawrence grumbles and keeps moving.

An Omega Kid Christmas: Part 1

Hey everyone! What follows is the first part of a serialized script I will be running on my site this month: An Omega Kid Christmas. Who is this Omega Kid? You can learn more by reading the first script (here) or going to the 30characters website where I created images and bios of the main characters (here).

New chapters of this story will be posted Mondays and Fridays through Christmas Eve. Enjoy and, if so moved, please feel free to share your thoughts or pass it along to friends. Thanks!


EXT. MIDTOWN MANHATTAN - DUSK
Christmas Eve. The streets are crowded with people of all shapes and sizes, bundled in winter clothes, doing last minute shopping. A Salvation Army Santa Claus rings his bell on a street corner.


A light snow begins to fall.

EXT. GIMBEL'S DEPARTMENT STORE - CONTINUOUS
The biggest department store in Manhattan. Housed in a block-wide, seven story building that dates to the turn of the century. People are coming in and out by the dozens, while some simply stand around marveling and the window display.

INT. GIMBEL'S - BOYS' CLOTHING SECTION - CONTINUOUS
RICK (11, skinny, wearing a sweatshirt and jeans) and LAWRENCE (also 11, husky, wearing a knit sweater and slacks) run through the crowd, trying to get away from the boring clothes section.
