THE THING IN THE LAKE
While Investigating Unknown Phenomenon At A Lake, Scientist Encounters Enigmatic Woman

SCENE OPENS ON Rita Bree Daniels. A scientist, she is in the field collecting samples, looking for an explanation for a mysterious phenomenon that is making the vegetation around a lake decompose from within.

Determined to get to the bottom of the situation, Rita resolves to get some more samples from an area near the lake.

CUT TO TITLE

As Rita investigates further, she notices a fungus she recognizes. But there's something odd about this particular specimen. She takes a sample, but as she is putting it away, she accidentally drops some of the sample on herself which causes an instantaneous effect on Rita. She sways on her feet.

Hours later, her eyes snap open. Groggy, she rises, realizing that she's naked. She notices that a man Lucas Frost is sunbathing by the lake. As she watches, he, thinking no one else is around, pulls out his cock and begins to masturbate.

Rita watches, entranced. Becoming aroused herself, she begins to rub her pussy.

Suddenly, from the brush by the lake, a mysterious woman Bella Rolland emerges, advancing towards the man. Getting a closer look at the woman, Rita's eyes widen. The woman has gills. Wordlessly the woman bends down between the man's legs and puts his cock into her mouth. He's shocked but doesn't resist.

The woman is wild, almost feral as she attacks his cock, climbing on top and riding him. Rita watches, fixated on this spectacle as she rubs her pussy.

The woman rides his cock, animalistic and primal. As the man cums, Rita cums too, convulsing and twitching. For a terrifying moment, the woman locks eyes with Rita, smiling malevolently.

Scared, Rita hurries back to her tent and falls into a fitful doze. But little does she know that the man has been reduced to a smoldering skeleton, stripped of all his skin by the strange woman.

Meanwhile, the water bubbles and boils and from the roiling froth, the thing in the lake emerges once more, her eyes alight with dark purpose, intent on one thing finding Rita...
