Prickalo and Dewliette script... Take 1?

Prickalo and DewlietteThis is an epic about taking control of one’s life. The story is about a hedgehog. The story begins with him being whisked away onto a journey and ends with him leaving his past life and starting a new one. Love, betrayal and discovering yourself play important roles in this story.
The name really doesn't work anymore....  
LS: Words Prickalo and Dewliette float on screen in an italic font. A suburban garden in the background with the sun setting rapidly.
As the sun passes behind the words, a light filter effect fills the screen.
MS-MCU: The camera tracks a leaf falling and drops to a hedgehog asleep in the afternoon sun under a few leaves.
Shoe starts to come down on the screen
MS Camera zooms out: A man stands on the hedgehog as he opens his back door dressed in gardening gear.-------cold
CU: The mans face is not amused, he pinches the bridge of his nose with his index and thumb.
Mans POV: he picks up the hedge hog and all goes black.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Fade inLS: Country side setting, car drives away and behind it is a box.
-Super speed zoom into the box as the car drives away-
CU: looking down on the hedge hog inside, who is cowering and afraid.uele vulneable 
ECU: His eyes close and he dreams of home and his family, this fills the whole screen.
CU – MS: The image changes so the family gathering is inside of a picture with a female hedgehog holding the frame, ( as 3 thought bubbles appear camera tracks them upwards )you see her thought bubble of him with a death sign over it.
 MS: The bubble pops
CU: a single tear falls from her eye
LS: As the tear falls from the frame, she goes into silhouette and it is made to look like she kills herself,
 Transition: Her frame moving up and off screen and his coming into screen the tear drop linking the two.
 Tracked CU: The tear falls onto the male hedgehog and he wakes up – it is raining.
LS: Looking rather pathetic and bedraggled he creeps out of the box.
LS – CU: ( As shadow grows so does the closeness of the camera)  A shadow of a bird grows closer and he runs towards the heather,
MS: Stumbling (towards camera)
CU: Just making it under cover as the talons snap in the empty space - feather gets caught in his spikes.
ECU: Blinking
MSPOV: looking around he see’s all the gems inside the heather ( bugs and such) all sparkling and enticing after the rain.
POV: One paw starts reaching out and grabs a worm to eat,
CU: but upon doing so brushes a leaf with a dew drop on it.
ECU: Camera focuses on the dew drop, all else fading/blurring slightly.
MS: He slaps the outstretched paw with the other hand, but shoves the worm in his mouth
CU: The worm still half hanging out.
ECU: Of worms terrified face.
POV: He then grabs the leaf (all goes black)
MS: As he blindfolds himself,
MS-LS: blindly runs through the treasure trove until off camera.
MS: he runs into curb.
CU: He peaks through the blindfold
POV: Finds he is on top of a hill and can see his house in the near distance. A large wheel disrupts his view and he sees the road in the way.
ECU: Eyes determined he does some ninja skills and rolls to the other side – now dizzy worm still in his mouth.
 LS: He makes it to the garden
MS: Approaches the front door, to the burrow
CU: His paw slowly reaches for the door
 Internal MS Looking up at him: He bursts in saying about the treasure trove he found waving the worm. His waves become less enthusiastic until he drops the worm to the floor.
MS: Camera switches to his wife in a pile of leaves with another hedgehog!
CU: His face – Overwhelming sadness, eyes start to grow teary.
CU: Wifes face – awkward smile,
CU: His face – Blinking  rapidly and looking away
MS: Wife looking from side to side shrugs a little
MS: He slowly shakes his head, and walks away.
ELS: You see a hedgehog walking off into the sunset the wind blowing through his hair, as he leaves the cheating hedgehog to do whatever she wants.
