BEDROOM - NIGHT

Aadi and Neha snooze under the covers, when the loud SHATTER of glass wakes them up with a start.

They sit up, groggy, startled, uncertain if they'd really heard it or if it was just a nightmare.

CRASH!

They hear it again, the unmistakable noise of smashing through glass.

SMASH! CRASH!

A fist-sized rock BURSTS in through their window. And another. And another.

AADI: Fuck!

They jump out of bed, getting hit at places, bleeding...

Aadi shuttles her to ---

THE BATHROOM

They huddle down in a corner of the bathroom, shielded from the hail of rocks.

THUD! CRASH! SMASH! CRACK!!!

The terror continues, threatening to never end.

Angry voices emanate from outside. Screams and cries of panic from inside.

Suddenly, Neha remembers something... She tightens her hold around Aadi's arm.

NEHA: (in a horrified whisper) The family...

... are still downstairs, dealing with the vandals, hurt and equally terrified as them.

Aadi sees something, stiffens - The silhouette of a man crawls into their room through the balcony.
