Tomb Raider: The Scantily Clad Chronicles

Chapter 2: Training Time!

[Butler enters the breakfast room with a glass of Orange Juice. Lara sits in full army gear with her large combat boots on the table.]

Butler: Here you are M'lady.[He passes her the glass she downs it in one and passes it back to him]

Lara: I need that dagger and if I'm going to get it I've got to be ready! [She slams her fist on the table] We need to do some training.

Butler: Miss Croft before we embark on dangerous and possibly fatal training in which I control the very safety of your life can I ask, what is my name?

Lara: Oh I don't know…. Percy?

Butler: [Containing his anger] Right…. [The glass in his hand shatters in to pieces] Let's go arm the lasers!

Lara: [Oblivious] OK

TEN MINUTES LATER

[Lara does a series of showy and unnecessary back flips to avoid the rapid fire. Butler sits behind controlling the weapon]

Butler: [Unheard over the din of the laser] DIE BITCH! DIE! I'LL SHOW YOU TO USE ME AS A MOVING TARGET IN YOUR ASSAULT COURSE!

[Lara does a spectacular move. She manages to accurately throw a rock with her feet while eating a banana and hanging from the bars. The rock disables Butler's laser. Enter the token Scottish brain that no one likes]

ScottishGuyWhoNoOneLikes: Ach no! Ya wee burn! Wat have ye doon ta ma precious leesa! [There is a brief silence. He speaks with his proper English accent.] I'll get my coat then shall I…?

[Butler and Lara exchange glances.]

Butler & Lara: RIIIIIGGGHHHTTT…

[Lara hangs from the bars. There is a knock at the front door]

Butler: I'll just get that…

Lara: Be quick; I need to get down!

[Butler meets his old pal, Jeeves at the door. They go through to the kitchen and begin to talk.]

SIX HOURS LATER

Jeeves: So I said to him you can make you own breakfast!

Butler: Damn Right!

Jeeves: So how is Miss Croft?

Butler: Dear Lord!

[They rush to the gymnasium where they find Lara weeping.]

Lara: [Sobbing] I ate a penny to stay alive!
