Panel 1

A huge aerial shot of a car driving down a country road, coming up to a turn that goes off into some woods.

CAPTION

My first time?

CAPTION

My first time was the summer after seventh grade.

CAPTION

My heart was racing. The… excitement of fear was much more than I could have imagined…

Panel 2

The car turns quickly down another gravel road leading into a wooded area.

CAPTION

The fear of getting caught weighed on my mind for days.

Panel 3

A shot of inside the car where Two twenty something males are passing a blunt back and forth.

CAPTION

Now… it’s just like breathing.

Panel 1

An establishing shot of the car parking in a deserted gravel lot in a city park.

CAPTION

The only obstacle I have is finding a place…

Panel 2

Back inside the car we see the two passing the blunt back and forth, laughing at their own jokes.

CAPTION

…and finding someone to do it with.

Panel 3

We close in on the passenger who is smothering the blunt out in the ashtray while exhaling a lot of smoke.

CAPTION

After all, this is something that’s a lot more entertaining when you do it with someone else…

Panel 4

Back to the driver, he’s now snarfing down a bag of Doritos.

CAPTION

I mean, you can do it by yourself, but… then you’re really just at the end of your ropes, aren’t ya?

Panel 5

We are outside the car, the driver is getting out, but signaling for the other one to stay inside.

DRIVER

Naw, I’ll just be a minute…

Panel 1

The driver is wiping his hands off on his pants, while he tries to open the trunk with his keys.

CAPTION

I never really gave much thought to how messy it would get.

Panel 2

We see inside the trunk, it’s full of the normal stuff, spare tire, quarts of oil, and a large blanket covering a box of unknown contents.

CAPTION

The Boy Scouts taught me to “Be Prepared.”

Panel 3

The driver is wiping his hands off on the blanket, while pulling out something from underneath. It’s a machete, but all we can see is the handle.

CAPTION

I never would have guessed how useful that would be.

Panel 4

The driver shuts the trunk.

CAPTION

Heh, funny how that works.

Panel 5

The driver is walking around to the passenger side of the car, machete down by his side.

CAPTION

I find, though, that the rush I get is less and less each time. It’s getting harder to fill that urging need.

Panel 6

The passenger door has been swung open, revealing the horrified look on the passengers face.

CAPTION

So, I’ve had to get more and more brutal each time.

Page 4 - Full page splash

We now see the driver dragging the bloody corpse of the passenger into the woods towards the setting sun.

CAPTION

My first time?

CAPTION

That was an accident.

CAPTION

The rest?

Those were for fun…
