Initial and first Development of Plot

To start off with, I had the following idea:

[[All angles are low except for ones showing the dog. All images are B&W except for ones showing the dog]]
A woman walks down a quiet street at night.
A black haired dog can be seen looking at the woman from afar.
A man walks towards her, seemingly harmless and appears to be on the phone.
Dog shys away, keeping out of sight.
A few moments after the man passes the woman he stops and turns to her, taking something out of his pocket.
[[Screen changes from B&W to Red monochrome. Two options are given.]]

1st option: Wait.
2nd option: Attack Man.

Waiting: Man takes out a piece of paper from his pocket and talks on the phone about being lost.
Attacking: Dog attacks and kills an innocent man. He loses track of the woman and so she dies. (failed)

My idea was that there would be one more incident which would result in the woman noticing the Dog and lay down the foundations for the story of how she helps him earn forgiveness. However, I've decieded to add another option before the above one.

[[All angles are low except for ones showing the dog. All images are B&W except for ones showing the dog]]
Two young women are walking down a street. One blonde, the other brunette.
A black haired dog can be seen looking at the women from afar.
[[Screen is in monochrome red, angles still low.]]
The two women take seperate paths. The blonde goes down a dark street, the other crosses an overpass.
[[Two options are given]]

1st option: Follow the Blonde.
2nd option: Follow the Brunette.

Blonde> Dog follows the blonde. [[Scene is B&W for a while until scene becomes red again and a womans scream can be heard]] (failed)
Brunette> Dog follows the brunette until a man walks towards her, seemingly harmless and appears to be on the phone. [Scene is glowing red in varying strength.]]
Dog shys away, keeping out of sight.
A few moments after the man passes the woman, he stops and turns to her, taking something out of his pocket.
[[Two options are given.]]

1st option: Wait.
2nd option: Attack Man.

Waiting: Man takes out a piece of paper from his pocket and talks on the phone about being lost.
Attacking: Dog attacks and kills an innocent man. He loses track of the woman and so she dies. (failed)

It took a while for me to plan out a viable idea for the final, actual attack on the woman. During this time I also changed the incident with the man so that the woman notices him during both options.

Woman stops and looks at the dog. She's afraid of it because it seems to have followed her home and the eyes are unaturally red.
[[Light turns on behind the woman]]
A second man appears behind her with a stern look on his face.
Woman looks relieved for a moment but then notices a blade in the mans hand.
Man grabs the woman and attempts to attack her.

Dogs eyes are no longer red after the man vanishes.
