Here's the teaser for our "Smallville" project. Ignore the formatting... I can't really center stuff without putting in a lot more effort than I feel like. The episode is called "Krypton-ite".

TEASER

FADE IN:

1 EXT. ROAD – DAY
CLARK, CHLOE, and PETE are walking along the road, carrying backpacks. Behind them, a school bus drives off into the distance, kicking up a cloud of dust on the dirt road.

CLARK
Man, chem. tests are going to kill me next week.

CHLOE
You could always join the football team. Again.

CLARK
What does that have to do with chemistry tests?

CHLOE
You wouldn’t need to pass the tests.

PETE
Now, Chloe, you know that the new coach doesn’t have any funky flame-throwing powers. Nor any real powers of persuasion. We sucked last week.

CLARK
Cheating and football… two things that probably wouldn’t go over too well with my parents.

PETE
Well, for a good grade, I think my dad would sanction just about anything.

CLARK
Yeah, right, Pete, that’s why you were towel-boy for two weeks after you bombed Mrs. Peterson’s English paper.

PETE
Maybe I just understand responsibility. Did you ever think of that? (grins)


CHLOE
Well, guys, this is my exit…

CLARK
See you.

PETE
Later.

Chloe leaves.

2 EXT. ROAD – DAY
Pete and Clark continue along a new part of the road. In the distance, we hear a train whistle.

PETE
Here’s me, Clark. Later.

CLARK
Bye, Pete.

Pete leaves.

3. EXT. RAILROAD CROSSING – DAY
We hear another train whistle in the distance as Clark nears the crossing. Up ahead, past the lowered barriers, Clark sees a young boy standing squarely in the center of the tracks. The train is getting closer, and the whistle blows again.

CLARK
Hey! HEY!

The boy doesn’t respond, and Clark runs toward him. He runs so fast that he becomes a BLUR.

As the train moves in slow motion, the boy turns at NORMAL SPEED as Clark runs up to him. He grabs Clark, and twists around, throwing Clark off in the air. He turns back to the train, just as it hits him in the shoulder, launching him off as well.

4. EXT. IMPACT DITCH – DAY
Clark shakes his head and stands up, brushing dirt off his clothes. He takes off his jacket, and sees that it is ripped in the back. Frowning, he looks up toward the train tracks – and we see that he is now SEVERAL HUNDRED YARDS away!

Clark dashes off at super-speed toward tracks.


5 EXT. RAILROAD CROSSING – DAY
Clark stands in the middle of the tracks, and looks around. Nearby, he sees a cluster of trees with several trees knocked down.

6. EXT. TREES – DAY
Clark enters the cluster of trees through an impact ditch like his own, and looks around – the boy is nowhere to be found.

CLARK
What the…?

FADE OUT

Maybe if anybody had read my post in the "Entertainment" section about this...
