WARMING HOUSE
By Kevin Hager

GENRE: Fantasy
LOGLINE:

Inspired from when I worked as a Warming House Attendant during the winter season. An unnamed teenage Warming House Attendant writes for a school project. While monitoring the skating rink. 

SYNOPSIS:

WARMING HOUSE

A Warming House Attendant opens a Warming House, makes sure it is clean then goes out to put the nests on the ice. Then he returns and starts writing for a project, and imagination takes wind.

First a group of explorers led by Nick Stone enter a jungle ruled by dinosaurs and end up fighting a ruthless treasure hunter named Brick Killgore and they ride dinosaurs with Nick and Brick riding T-Rex’s and fighting each other for lost treasure and it ends with Nick defeating Brick by throwing him off a cliff into lava while Nick makes it out and reunites with native girl Layla who is his girlfriend.

The Attendant’s attention is drawn to some skaters, and he logs them in, and watches them as he reads and eats some snacks. Then they leave and the Attendant returns to writing.

Second story, a lone soldier named Jack Drake is fighting a unit of terrorist in a skyscraper (like Die Hard) and is attempting to rescue his wife, Brenda. He manages to take out the second in command and soon confronts their leader Castor Vile and in a fist, fight defeats him and reunites with Brenda, and they leave the building and head home.

The Attendant’s attention changes to a hockey team and while he stays out of their way lets them practice for an upcoming game as they finish, he logs in a Hockey Team for Hockey Practice. Then turns the rink lights on and continues writing.

Third Story, in an old west town a law-abiding Sherif Thomas Goode is about to have a showdown with a killer named Biff Butch and in the final showdown Thomas kills Biff and reunites with his wife Gloria Goode.

The Attendant takes a quick break for dinner and logs in some new skaters then as they leave continue writing.

Fourth story features a police officer named Jake Blade following the trail of criminal mastermind Stan Lawless as he had robbed three banks as the same time. Jake realizes his plan and how he is doing it and sets a trap for Stan and catches and arrests him. Jake gets accommodations and goes home to his girlfriend Sylvia.

The Attendant watches and log ins some new skaters and then prepares to write the final one.

In the Fifth and final story, a space hero named Alan Starr helps the army fight an alien invasion and aliens from a fallen planet aid them with help from a former alien princess named Olana and with her help they plant a bomb destroying the mothership and saves the world, afterwards Alan and Olana travel together to a remote planet to celebrate.

As the Attendant finishes he sees it’s nearly closing time, and then puts his materials away and hides what he needs to hide, sweeps up the Warming House and goes outside and gets the nets off the ice and makes sure they are on the snow so they don’t melt into the ice and returns and gathers all his belongings, totals up how many skaters came, and turns off the lights and then closes and locks the Warming House and walks home to prepare for the next day.
