The story begins with a long shot of a garden, where a girl is sleeping on a throne like structure at the end of a long path. A flower (in a bright red or yellow--some color and shape differing it from the flowers in the actual garden) floats pass the camera, and we follow it to where it rests on the path.
There is a pause, just long enough to build a little tension, when suddenly a silver bell located above Mary's thrown begins to ring. Mary leaps to her feet in surprise, brandishing the watering can she was holding like a weapon and looking left to right. The cat on the other hand lazily stretches to his feet and rubs against her ankes.
The bells are still ringing and she looks from them with her hands over her ears in disgust (close up shot), and the camera zooms out to the flower on the path.
Close up of her rolling her eyes, then a mid lower shot of her jumping of the pedistal as the cat watches, flicking his tail.
She picks up the object and here, depending on my time constraints...either sticks it in her pocket/throws it over the fence/ or walkes it over to a hole in the wall labeled "Incinerator" which glows red from below when she drops it in.
Again, based on my time, I'd like to have the camera slowly zoom out, showing more flowers flying forward, and the bells begin to ring right as the credits appear.
The Characters:
Sam (short for Samantha) isn't too particularly fond of her job in watching over the garden, but the position was open and the only requirement was to either be named, or be willing to be called, Mary.
The cat (haven't thought of a name yet) is another guardian of the garden, and his job is to keep any small creatures with the munchies for vegetation away.
