(Ryujin and Skye face Richie in battle.)
RYUJIN
Is your elemental burst ready to use?
SKYE
Yeah. Why do you ask?
RYUJIN
It's time to heat things up?
RICHIE
What are you guys planning? Whatever you do… it's not going to work… I've the slightest advantage here.
RYUJIN
That we know. And I congratulate you on that.
RICHIE
Buhahahaha! You finally get it Red hair.
RYUJIN
Vee! Form a water barrier around you and the old man. At least, you can do that right?
VEE
I can try. [What is he planning? Don't tell me…] Defensive barrier.
(She forms a water dorm barrier around her and Goa.)
VEE
Ryujin! Whatever plan you have to do it fast… I don't I'll be able to hold this barrier any longer.
RYUJIN
Okay. Ready Skye. When Richie releases his elemental burst… I want you to release yours. Then I'll deliver the final blow at Richie.
SKYE
Got it… Then after that we can go back to our business.
(She does some hand signal about sex.)
RYUJIN
(Turns red.)
You wanna do that.
SKYE
I just can't get enough of you.
RYUJIN
…
RICHIE
I don't know what you're planning but it ain't gonna work.
(Meanwhile somewhere the townspeople have taken refuge. They've gathered some weapons that they're going to use to deal with the despicable pirates.)
MAN
Let's go everyone! Even if the marines don't come here to our rescue. We'll deal with those pirates as a team. Are you with me?!
TOWNSPEOPLE
Yeah!
MAN
Let's go everyone! Let's show those pirates not to mess with our unity!
(They charge towards to the direction where the town is.)
(Meanwhile in the town….)
RICHIE
Whatever you do now… it won't work… I have the advantage here. Cyclonic arrow!
(He forms a huge bow and arrow and shoots the arrow at them.)
RYUJIN
Skye, now!
SKYE
Yes, Ryu. Have a taste of this clown. This is my elemental burst Flaming phoenix!
(Her swords glow up as she releases her elemental burst in the form of a phoenix bird that counter attacks Richie's cyclonic arrow that makes the flame to be bigger as it heads towards Richie.)
RICHIE
….!
VEE
Now I get it what Ryujin was planning. Since Richie gave Ryujin a hint of what his gift can do. He decided to make Skye to use her elemental burst who has a pyro gift to counter attack Richie's gift. Since there's oxygen in the air that means Richie's cyclonic arrow had to have some particles of oxygen in it. And since oxygen supports combustion… it made the flame to bigger and now there's no escape for Richie now. Each gift user has their own weakness. And Richie's weakness is Skye's pyro gift.
RICHIE
This bad I have to get out of here!
(However, the flame hits him as he feels the burns.)
RICHIE
Guah! It's so hot!
(Ryujin appears before him with his arms charged with lightning.)
RYUJIN
Time to send you flying Richie!
RICHIE
Wait! What are you trying to do?
RYUJIN
Lightning stamp!
(With enough force, he pushes Richie away by sending him flying away from the island and crashes to his ship. Richie's pirates seeing this all run away.)
VEE
They finally did it.
(She releases the water barrier.)
GOA
Our town is finally free. Thanks you guys. Thank you for saving our town.
RYUJIN
It's nothing.
(His stomach grumbles.)
RYUJIN
I'm getting hungry.
SKYE
Same here.
GOA
You guys must be hungry. I'll go and pack you guys some food.
RYUJIN
Thanks old man.
(Goa heads to pack some rations of food. The townspeople arrive.)
MAN
Where are the pirates? OI! You two have you seen any pirates?
VEE
They just left.
RYUJIN
If you're talking about pirates. I'm also a pirate… you guys like pirates?
VEE
Why the hell would you say that, you idiot!
SKYE
Hahahahahaha!
MAN
So you guys are pirates! Get them!
(They start to shoot them down as Ryujin, Skye and Vee start to run.)
VEE
What's wrong with you? Why are you always stirring up trouble?
RYUJIN
Because it's fun! Hahahaha!
VEE
There's no fun in this!
(They head onto Vee's boat and starts to open up the sail.)
GOA
What the hell are you guys doing?
MAN
Mayor! We're trying to capture those pirates.
(He hits his head.)
GOA
That's no way to treat our saviors. They saved our town from that despicable pirate Richie.
MAN
But they're pirates!
GOA
So what. I don't sense any malicious intent in them. Even though they're pirates… they're youngsters who're seeking adventure nor pillaging villages like other pirates do. Red hair! Here's your food!
(He shoves it onto their boat.)
RYUJIN
Thank you so much. Bye everyone!
(They start to set sail as Goa and the townsmen wave at them goodbye thanking them for saving their town.)
