My draft script--it's in the form of a live TV news broadcast that gets, uh, interrupted. 
Exterior:
Beach. Reporter on camera.
REPORTER: I’m coming to you live from St Petersburg, Florida, where dozens of strange reports have been coming in over the past two days. At least eight Tampa Bay residents have reported seeing a shimmering moving creature in trees or on buildings, similar to this image caught on video by a vacationing couple at Busch Gardens.
(Typical vacation video of Busch Gardens, off-camera voice says “look! what’s that?”--camera pans to cloaked Predator in nearby bushes, who flashes eyes, and moves offscreen.)
REPORTER: We’re also getting some new information on that gruesome murder that was reported yesterday at the Boyd Hill Nature Preserve. Unconfirmed reports from sources inside the Medical Examiner’s office indicate that the victim in that homicide was found suspended from a high branch, and that the body’s skin had been completely removed. The Medical Examiner has not yet made any official statements in that case. Police have also released this video of an object found at the scene, reportedly embedded into a tree near the body.
(Video of the smart shuriken.)
REPORTER: (voiceover) Police are unsure what this object is, but are asking anyone with any knowledge of it to please come forward. Police say the object appears to be made of an extremely lightweight metal that is very strong.
REPORTER (on camera) Military officials at the US Central Command, located at MacDill Air Force Base in Tampa, have released a statement denying that the object is any kind of secret military project but confidential sources have told me that the military believes it to be some kind of weapon that is powered by an unknown energy source. You may recall that a group of fishermen in Guatemala found another strange object entangled in their river nets three days ago.
(Video of backpack/plasma cannon.)
REPORTER (voiceover): This device was also reported to be made out of some unknown metal. It appears to be some kind of gun, but Guatemalan officials have released no further information.
REPORTER (on camera): That area in Guatemala where the object was found is also the place where a US Special Forces team reportedly disappeared on a mission over twenty years ago. For now, we have no information about whether or not any of these objects are linked in any way with the strange shimmering creature that is being seen here, or what . . . AHHHH!!!!
(As the Reporter talks, we see a Predator uncloak behind him, extend his combistick spear, and impale the Reporter from behind. After the Reporter falls, the Predator reaches down, we hear some cutting and ripping noises, then the Predator roars as he raises his arm with the skull and spine of the Reporter dangling from his hand. At the same time, we see a second Predator decloak, extend his wristblades, and step around behind the camera. We hear a scream from the cameraman, then blood spatters across the lens and the picture is replaced by static.
END
