EXT. THE TREE -- NIGHT

Charlton (NICHOLAS CAGE) BURSTS through the foliage, panting,
just as THREE ARROWS SHOOT OUT FROM THE BUSHES, up into the
trees narrowly missing his head. Charlton sprints forwards,
dodging and leaping away from stray branches and roots.

CHARLTON (V.O.)
I was first introduced to the natives
when the savages shot at me with
their bloody poisonous arrows.

Charlton ducks under a low branch, just as an arrow THWACKS
into the wood where his head just was.

CHARLTON (V.O.)
Well, of course they weren't bloody
just yet but, you get the point.

Charlton stares at the bone-carved arrowhead in disbelief.

CHARLTON (V.O.)
Never mind, bad choice of words.

He manages to rip his eyes away and run, just as two more
arrows embed themselves into the wood, ripping the long,
solid branch off the tree.

CHARLTON
Three of them...

He grits his teeth, picks up the wooden staff.

CHARLTON
And one me...

He glares into the woods.

CHARLTON
That's doable.

Then he disappears behind the thick trunk of the tree.

A strange THWUNK. Then silence.

From behind the bushes, THREE NATIVES emerge and puzzledly
glare at the spot where Charlton once was. Then they huddle
and begin whispering, conspiringly. After a moment of
deliberation, they nod and glare back at the tree.

CHARLTON (V.O.)
To be honest, I had no idea what I
was going to do when they came around.

Two of them silently approach the tree in a pincer-like
formation: Native #1 from the left, Native #2 from the right.

CHARLTON (V.O.)
All I knew was that if I just ran,
they'd just catch up sooner or later.

Native #3, meanwhile, takes an arrow from his case, places
it against his bow, readies it, then pulls back the draw-
string, ready to release at any sign of the intruder.

CHARLTON (V.O.)
I had to fight.

The two Natives approach.

A hand twirls the wooden staff around, checking for balance,
then grips it firmly.

CHARLTON (V.O.)
It was my stick...

Now only a few feet from the trunk, Native #1 gives Native
#2 a signal and they both draw out a machete-like blade from
leather scabbards on their waists.

CHARLTON (V.O.)
Against their swords.

Inching closer and closer around the trunk, Native #2 suddenly
spots the tips of a pair of boots sticking out from the other
side of the tree. He signals something to Native #1, who
nods, then raises his three fingers. Then two. Then one.

CHARLTON (V.O.)
Their numbers...

With a SHRIEK, they both charge around the trunk and SWING
their blades at Charlton's neck-level, slicing his head off
with a resounding -- THWACK?

CHARLTON (V.O.)
Against my head.

CHARLTON'S SIDE OF THE TREE

They stare at their blades, embedded into the trunk, then
down, lower, where a pickaxe is buried, horizontally, into
the wood, right about at Charlton's thigh level -- a temporary
step or springboard to the trees.

CHARLTON (V.O.)
And, of course, don't ever forget my
trusty pickaxe.

They turn to each other, in realization, just as Charlton's
STICK SWINGS DOWN, from above, CRACKING into Native #1's
skull as he crumples to the ground.
