[Scene: The Hen Tie High parking lot. Kunzite pulls up and Zoi is waiting for him.]
Zoi: Thank you for doing this.
Kunzite: No problem at all.
[The walk together to the nurse's office, with Kunzite's arm around Zoi's shoulders.]
[Minako is sleeping soundly on the cot. Her face is reddish and sweaty. There is a plastic cup of juice on a chair by the bed, and a cold compress on her forehead.]
[The nurse is watching her with a concerned look]
Kunzite: I'm here to take Minako home.
Nurse Kaolinite: [whispers] I'm glad you're here. Her fever is spiking. Last I checked it was 104. I have half a mind to call for an ambulance.
[Zoi kneels beside her and gently rocks her shoulder to wake her.]
Zoi: Wake up, Minako. Kunzite's come to take you home.
[Minako's big blue eyes snap open and she stares right at Kunzite with a sneer of demonic hatred.]
Minako: /Kun zi to/
[Kunzite's eyes go wide and he backs away, shielding Zoi behind him.
Minako: [growling and bearing her teeth] Shhhhhhitennnnnou.
Kunzite: Zoisite! Get out of here! Now!
[Minako crouches on her hands and knees to stare at Kunzite. She's grimacing like a fiend and her eyes are rolled up near the top of her head, giving her a slightly crazed look]
Minako: [shrieking] /Ana ta wa wa ta see o koro see mas eta/
/Ana ta wa wa ta see no you gin o koro see mas eta/
/Ana ta wa wa ta see no heto o koro see mas eta/
/Ana ta wa ni wa de heb ay de su./
/Xu ki no na ma de, wa ta see wa ana tao sho ba xuse na ke re ba na ri masen/
[Minako leaps up from the bed and grabs a medical supply cart and swings it as Kunzite as hard as she can.]
[Kunzite blocks the cart, but it buckles and warps as if it had been hurled with superhuman strength. Minako immediately follows that attack with a roundhouse kick and a rain of blows that shatter drywall whenever her strikes hit a wall. Nurse Kaolinite screams and runs from the room while Zoi cowers in the doorway.]
Zoi: Minako! Stop! What are you doing?
[Minako ignores him and continues to attack Kunzite with whatever she can get her hands on. Bottles, syringes, trays… Kunzite manages to parry all her attacks, but only with great effort.]
[Eventually she seems to give up. Minako backs up and puts her fingers to together and Zoi is relieve to see she's not hitting Kunzite any more.]
Minako: CRESCENT BEAM!
[Zoi doesn't see the blast, since Kunzite is blocking his view. That is until Kunzite vanishes in a pink flash and it comes straight for his head. Zoi narrowly manages to duck backward in time to avoid being decapitated. Instead, a window far behind him shatters into a thousand pieces.]
[Kunzite reappears behind Minako, and puts his arm across her throat in a sleeper hold until she passes out. He drops her back onto the cot and storms out of the room, with Zoi following close behind him.]
[The nurse is hiding under a desk]
Kunzite: Call 911. Her fever has spiked to a dangerous level and she needs to be hospitalized.
[Once outside]
Zoi: Her fever? Are you kidding me? Minako is clearly possessed! She'll probably kill anyone they send to strap her to a gurney!
Kunzite: [shakes his head] I don't think so. I doubt she's a danger to anyone but me.
Zoi: What do you mean? She was speaking in tongues!
Kunzite: Not tongues. Moon dialect.
Zoi: Moon dialect?
Kunzite: The language spoken by the people who live on the moon.
Zoi: But there aren't any people who live on the moon.
Kunzite: [Nods gravely] Fancy that.
