(Tenda tries to free Skye.)
TENDA
Why are these knots tight? I can't untie the knots.
SKYE
[That Red hair wants to conquer the Blue line. The moment we met… I noticed something odd about him. Even though, he's a pirate… he has piqued my interest.]
(Henry Morgens and armed marines appear before them.)
HENRY
Looks like we have another rat.
SKYE
…!
TENDA
Eek! That's Henry Morgens. We're dead! Ryujin, where are you?!
(Inside the building. Ryujin finds the swords.)
RYUJIN
There are 2 of them.
(He picks both of them.)
RYUJIN
This sword with a dragon sheathe has some tremendous power.
JOHNNIE
It's the infamous Sword, long Jian.
RYUJIN
That's a cool name. Anyways, we're out of here.
(He looks at the window and grins.)
JOHNNY
Oi! Don't tell me you're going to jump!
RYUJIN
Of course I am.
JOHNNIE
You're crazy, Red hair!
(They jump out of the windows.)
JOHNNIE
Gyaaa! I'm going to die!
(Meanwhile, the marines point their guns at Tenda and Skye Alderman.)
HENRY
There's no way that the 2 of you will get out of here alive. Especially you Skye. Remember that you're on death row.
SKYE
Not anymore. I'm not going to die yet.
TENDA
This is bad. Very bad!
HENRY
Oh really?! What makes you to say that?
SKYE
I've a dream. And that's to challenge a certain man and claim his title.
HENRY
I don't know what nonsense you're spouting but you'll die right now. Shoot them!
(They fire at the 2 of them Ryujin lands in between them and catches the bullets at lightning speed. Johnnie has already passed out due to the fall.)
RYUJIN
Are these your bullets?
(He throws them down to the ground surprising everyone.)
SKYE
What are you? Some kind of monster?!
RYUJIN
Oh, I came from another world.
(With his fingers he frees Skye from the wooden pole.)
SKYE
Ah! It's good to be free.
RYUJIN
I got both swords. I didn't know which one was yours.
SKYE
It's fine. I use both.
(She takes both swords and unsheathe them.)
HENRY
Don't think that you'll get out of here alive. Kill them both!
MARINE OFFICERS
Yes, sir!
RYUJIN
Show me how strong you are Skye.
SKYE
Yes, my captain.
(She charges at the marine officers. They fire at her. She cuts their guns. Her swords start to flame)
SKYE
Blazing torch!
(She slashes the marines with her flaming swords.)
RYUJIN
She's strong.
HENRY
I see. So you have it also. A gift granted by the 7 elemental gods. And your gift is a pyro one.
RYUJIN
Do you know about that Tenda?
TENDA
Yeah. I've heard of them. Gifts are elemental artifacts that are granted to us by the seven elemental gods. They come in 7 types: Pyro, Hydro, Electro, cryo, nature, Geo and Wind.
HENRY
What star are you?
SKYE
A 5-star to be precise.
HENRY
I see. My gift is a Geo. And I'm also a 5-star user. Let's see between fire and Geo… which one is stronger.
RYUJIN
Don't forget about me. I'm entering in this fight.
HENRY
Kid. This is a battle between 2 gifted people. Someone like you should stay away.
RYUJIN
I don't know what the fuck you're talking about. But I'm also strong. And I think stronger than you guys.
SKYE
…
HENRY
You bastard! I'll teach you a lesson for calling me weak. Eat this!
(He aims his iron axe at Ryujin. Ryujin charges his fist with lightning and catches the iron axe.)
RYUJIN
Lightning fist!
(Then with his next charged fist he punches Henry down.)
