I have come up with my idea of what i would like my main task will be.
The story opens with a news report relaying the information that someone locally has died on fireworks night and that currently police are looking into it. The story then revolves around my main character Johnathon Hage, an army sargent who has just got back from war. He has a team of men that trust him and respect him. They continue to train together so that they are ready if they get posted oversea's again. During the trainning exercise that takes place Sargent Hage starts to get a little confused on where he is and begins to have blurred images of the past. When one of his men knocks him as the sargent has stopped abrubtly the sargent turns on him, firing blanks that bruise his man. He plays the situation down, telling his men that he is alright, he was just caught off guard. He tells his men that the trainning is done for today and that they should go back to their rooms.
Later in the evening the sargent and his men collectively go to a fireworks night, they all have a few beers before they go. They are locally known amongest civillians and are spoken to and have kind regards and pleasentry's passed on. While the fireworks are lit and the display begins the men appear fine, all happy and enjoying a normal night out back home, a white, loud firework goes off and a odd expression comes across the sargents face. This time his memory is not blurred. His mind has been taken back to the war. He's fighting the enemy. He is chasing through civillians to catch the man that they have been after for a while. Suddenly he feels someone grab his shoulder, he turns to see his second in command looking at him. All of his men are telling him just to shoot the guy. That he is better off dead. The sargent is blinking rapidly, with every blink he is switching between reality and the war. He becomes further confused and finally we hear a shot ring out.
We then see the situation from a different pair of eyes, the man that he was chasing has turned around just to see the sargent turn the gun on himself and take his life.
This has not been commishened just yet, however i am going to share my plans with my teacher soon and will be able to find out if i can film this, or if i may need to change it ever so slightly.
