XXXX: Ranveer Rathod?

(Ranveer looks at XXXX)

(Ranveer smiles)

Ranveer: Akshay Parashar!

(Akshay looks at Ranveer)

Akshay (Thinking): Is this really Ranveer?! He has changed so much!

Sara: Do you know this person?

Ranveer: Something like that.

(The girls look continuously at Ranveer since they are shocked that he survived)

(Akshay puts his hands down and starts to walk towards Ranveer)

Akshay: Wassup ma-

(Akshay gets interrupted by Ranveer)

(Ranveer removes his gun and points it at Akshay)

Ranveer: Who told you to lower your hands?

(Akshay takes a step back and puts his hands up in the air)

Akshay: Whoa!! Dude what the hell are you doing?! Don't you remember me?

Ranveer: Of course I do. It's been a long time, hasn't it?

(Akshay is about to say something but Ranveer interrupts him)

Ranveer: Before we start talking we should get inside a house.

(Akshay, Ranveer, Sara, Sana and Samaira go inside the house from which Ranveer came out)

Akshay: Don't do this man!!! We're friends, aren't we?

Ranveer: That gun you used. You made it, didn't you?

Akshay: What?!

(Akshay looks at the gun on his waist)

Akshay: Yeah!

Ranveer: How did you make it?

Akshay: It's kind of a long process. I can show you the blueprint.

Ranveer: Don't move and tell me where the blueprint is.

(Akshay stops and tells Ranveer)

Akshay: It's in my room.

(Ranveer gestures to Samaira to check Akshay's room)

Samaira: Which one is your room?

Akshay: The one on the right.

(Samaira checks Akshay's room and sees a paper rolled up on the study table, she comes out of the room and gives it to Ranveer)

Samaira: This might be it!

(Ranveer opens the paper and smiles)

Ranveer: Good!

(Ranveer lowers his gun)

(Akshay sighs! in relief)

Akshay: Can I lower my hands?

(Ranveer nods saying yes)

(Akshay lowers his hands)

(Ranveer puts his gun in a holster)

(Akshay looks at Ranveer)

(Akshay comes near Ranveer)

Akshay: Dude! You've changed so much.

Ranveer: And you've remained the same, haven't you?

(Sana sees Ranveer bleeding from his cheek)

Sana: You're bleeding!

(Ranveer cleans the blood on his cheek)

Ranveer: It's not a big deal.

(Sara comes near Ranveer and touches his face)

Sara: You don't have to act tough.

(Ranveer gets a bit startled)

Samaira: Sara is right! You have a piece of glass stuck on your cheek.

(Ranveer gets a bit startled)

Sana: Sit down.

Ranveer: Why?!

Samaira: I am going to remove the glass from your cheek and stitch it up.

Ranveer: Are you a doctor?

Sara: She isn't but she was a medical student for 2 years.

Ranveer: Fine but do we have to do it now?

Samaira: Yes because it might cause an infection.

(Ranveer does not say anything any further and lets Samaira stitch him up)

Samaira: Don't worry you might get a small scar but nothing more than that.

Ranveer: Thank you! I guess.

(Akshay looks at Ranveer continuously)

(Ranveer gets up and starts to drink water)

Akshay: Hey can I talk to you Ranveer?

Ranveer: Yeah what is it?

(Akshay comes near Ranveer)

(Sana, Samaira and Sara look at Akshay suspiciously)

Akshay (Whispers): Is this your harem?

(Ranveer coughs while drinking water)

Sana: Are you alright Ranveer?

Ranveer: Yeah I am fine.

(Ranveer looks at Akshay)

Ranveer: I think I should've killed you!

Akshay: Come on man just tell me!

(Ranveer looks at Akshay)

Ranveer: No!

Akshay: That means I can give it a try right?

(Ranveer looks at Akshay with anger)

Akshay: I guess that's a no.

Ranveer: I need your help!

Akshay: Help?! What would that be?

Ranveer: Girst just introduce yourself!

Ranveer: Sana, Sara and Samaira look here!

(The girls look at him)

Ranveer: Introduce yourself.

Akshay: Hi! My name is Akshay Parashar, I am 17 and I guess I am about to join your team. I am great with computers and mechanics. I am also Ranveer's old friend.

Sana: Can you fight?

Akshay: Well I am not particularly good at it!

Ranveer: Him being good at mechanics is a good enough reason for him to join the team. Do you guys have any problem with it?

Samaira: I don't.

Sara: Me either.

Sana: If no one has a problem then even I don't.

Sara: Wait he said, he's your old friend.

Ranveer: Yeah!

Akshay: Exactly! We went to school together!

Sara: So what's your age Ranveer?

Ranveer: I am about to be 18 this year.

Sana: Wait you're only 18 years old?

Ranveer: Yeah is that a problem?

Sana: Of course not! I just thought you were at least 20.

Ranveer: I guess we've talked enough. We need to leave this place as soon as possible.

Akshay: You're right! If we wait any longer then the zombies will inevitably breakthrough that door and kill us all.

Samaira: So what's the plan!

Ranveer: Luckily now we have a computer genius with us.

(Ranveer looks at Akshay)
