Mister Monday Script (SO FAR)

(Narrator speaks as the story of the Will is foreseen)
Narrator
They tried to destroy the Will, but that proved beyond their power. So they broke it, in two ways. It was broken physically, torn apart, with the fragments of heavy parchment scattered across both space and time. It was broken in spirit because not one clause of it had been fulfilled. If the treacherous Trustees had their way, no clause of the Will would ever be executed.
(Shows Trustees protest against their belief)
Narrator: Continued
(As Narrator speaks the locking of the fragments is shown)
To make sure of this, all seven fragments of the Will had been hidden with great care. The first and least of the fragments was fused inside a single clear crystal, harder than diamond. Then the crystal was encased in a box of unbreakable glass. Then the box was locked inside a cage of silver and malachite, and the cage was fixed in place on the surface of a dead sun at the very end of Time.
(Around the cage, twelve metal Sentinels stood guard, each taking post upon one of the numbers of a clock face that had been carved with permanent light in the dark matter of the defunct star)
Every hundred years, a new inspector came protruding around checking the caged, locked and incased part of the Will. And this case was not any different or so we thought…

Nobody said it would be easy to write a script, Hope.

I once tried to write a KK film script. Didn't turn out that well, though. Only managed the first chapter.
