Scene 36

Savin' the World B4 Honeymoonin':

Executin' the "Perfect" Plan

Tigress is standing on the roof of the vampire castle. She puts her index finger in her ear.
Tigress: All systems red. Begin the execution.
Over the earpiece...
Soo Jin: The eagles have eyes.
Mandy: Beta, ready for action.
Rick: Omega, all set.
Tigress: Alpha is ready. All systems go.
She takes her hand out of her ear and pulls the fake tongue out from around her ankles. She points the fake tongue towards the roof and presses the button. It attaches and she grabs the "tongue" tightly in her right hand. She walks to the edge of the roof and jumps backwards off of it. When she's in front of the huge window of the throne room, she starts swinging faster and faster. She eventually crashes through them. This surprises Jonathon and Jake. Tigress smiles evilly and turns to face the two. She gets up slowly and walks over to the cage holding Jake and just kicks the door-bars at an angle so that it hangs from there like a normal flap. Both guys pale. She then walks into the cage and unties Jake's bonds and undoes the gag.
Jake: Tigress, this is my dad's house so save him, not me.
Tigress: Are you an idiot? I thought you could tell from the wings that your father's dead too.
Jake: Then save my mother.
Tigress: There shouldn't be a need for that.
Jake: But...
Tigress: Sorry. I'm only here for you.
Before Jake could realize what's going on, Tigress grabs his left wrist and swings him out of the cage. He lands on the floor and coughs out a little blood.
Jake: Oof.
He wipes his mouth and gets up. He begins to turn around but is finished only when he finishes his second to last word.
Jake: That was totally un... nec... cessary.
He's staring at the cage that just a few seconds ago he'd been in. Tigress is dying again. Spikes had come out of all four sides of the cage, piercing her entire body. She starts coughing up blood.
Jake: Tigress? Tigress! Why? No, you can't die!
Jonathon: I'm afraid that's impossible.
He steps halfway out of the shadows holding a remote. Jake turns at the voice and glares.
Jake: You devil!
Jonathon: That's right.
He steps all the way out and Jake's jaw drops.
Jake: Jonathon?
Jonathon: No! I'm Devil Knight! So you'd better watch your mouth.
He presses a button and the spikes get bigger and sharper. Jake turns in to see Tigress cough up more blood. Then her eyes roll into the back of her head and her body goes limp.
Jake: Crystal!
Satisfied, Jonathon presses another button and the spikes vanish. The lifeless body falls to the floor. Jake runs over, picks up the body princess-style, then swiftly runs out of the cage to avoid the spikes. He sets her down and turns back to Jonathon.
Jake: Why? Why are you doing this, Jonathon? Why do ya wanna make our existence known ta the humans? Why ruin the peace we've worked so hard ta achieve? The third of the world's population that is human... Well, it's called "Ignorance is bliss" for a reason.
Jonathon: Shut up, (disgusted) King Jake. You'd never understand!
Jonathon pulls out a .45 and points it at Jake. Jake doesn't see any weapons to use, so he shows his fangs and red eyes.
Jonathon: You think that'll scare me?
Jake turns and sinks his fangs into Tigress. He sucks twice then pulls out and his face is twisted with disgust.
Jake: Yuck! No one would ever wanna drink that!
Jake stands up again.
Jake: Answer me, Jonathon.
Jonathon: You'd never understand my feelings!
Jake: Of course not. Especially if ya don't even talk about it!
Jonathon: Just shut up.
He cocks the gun and Jake gulps. Then two "disembodied" arms grab Jonathon's arms. Neyeli steps out of the shadows on the left of Jonathon and Jake returns to human form.
Jonathon: Let me go, Neyeli.
Neyeli: No. Haven't cha killed enough?
Devil Knight: Besides, killin' another one o' the innocent isn't gonna get cha anywhere. Now lower the gun, my little Ghost.
Nakita stares behind Jake and then hides behind Jonathon.
JJD: What is it, Neyeli?
Tigress: I guess that's an appropriate reaction.
