Story development

This is the current state of the story. im preety happy with the structure but may still make a few tweeks depending on how it feels on storyboard.


Three chickens are nervously waiting in line in their pen to be taken by the violent chef to be beheaded and served as fajitos in an old mexican restraunt.
  The second chicken in line is frantically looking around to try and find some kind of escape route, unlike the other two that are preparing themselves for death. The chef returns to the pen to get the next chicken and the second inline takes a deep breath, ready to escape.
                                              
As the chef grabs the next chicken from the pen, the second in line leaps onto his legs as he is carried out, shielded from the chefs view. The third chicken is a crying mess at the back of the pen that thinks he has no hope of escape but at the last second he clings onto the other in his own desperate attempt to be free, not to the amusement of the second inline that thinks he may foil his plans.
Both chickens manage to get out of the pen without the chef noticing and drop to the floor just outside whilst the one that was first inline is beheaded by the chef.
    The two chickens head in amongst several stacks of hot sauce whilst the chef finishes off the other and returns to get the next but discovers that they are not there.
    The chef scans the room for a sign of the chickens and suspicously walks over to the stacks of hot sauce to see if they are there. He moves several pots of sauce around
    to try and catch them out, with the chickens moving wth them trying not to be seen. The chef then crouches down and shines a light in amongst a gap in the higher stacks of sauce to see if they are there. He squeezes his hand into the gap with the two chickens pressed up against the wall of sauces, narrowingly not been touched.   
    The chef removes his hand and moves away from the stack and the chickens take a sigh of relief, thinking that they are safe for the time being. Suddenly, the chicken that was last in line is grabbed from the other side of the stacks by the chef. He is taken by the scruff of the neck and led away to the chopping board. The other chicken watches in horror as he is brutily beheaded by the chef’s axe on the other side of the room.
    The surviving chicken runs to the door to try and get out the building but the chef spots him just as he is finishing off the other chicken. Just as the survivor is about
    to get to the door, the chef grabs him by the legs and pulls him back. In a violent struggle, the chef slashes around with his axe as the chicken puts up a fight to get
    away. The chefs grip gradualy loosens and the chicken is flung into a pile of chillis on the floor. The chef draws back his axe and just as he is about to swing, the chicken stabs him in the eye with a chilli.
     
Partly blinded, the chef, ragingly slashes around with his axe, with the chicken darting around the kitchen. The chicken then finds himself backed into a corner by the chef and just as the cheftakes one last swing to behead the chicken, he knocks his axe into the large rack of knives that are hanging from the ceiling.
A giant knife is released from the rack and cuts into the chefs neck, beheading him.The exausted chickens sighs in relief as he has survived the hands of the violent chef. The end.
