Arrival – The Raiders
Act 1, Scene 1 (Day of Arrival from sea)
The Ameyura and Moresuke are building a new village. Canon is visibly confused by the going ons, and he has to have explanations given to him several times. But he eventually gets it. They work hard, and thanks to the magic of time skipping, they soon have a skeleton village set up. They are building the village out of the ships they arrived in.
Scene 2 (The Same)
Raiders: *ride into the main path in the partially built village*
People: *gasp and scatter*
Scene 3 (Irakura's Palace)
Irakura: Where is the witch?
Attendant: We do not know, sire.
Irakura: Did I not ask you to bring her to me?
Attendant: Indeed.
Irakura: You've failed me...
Attendant: Please! Have mercy!
Irakura: Very well. Guards, escort him to Migyu's factory. I hear he's understaffed, and I wish for him to reach his production goals.
Attendant: *gasp*
Guards: *march him out*
Irakura: (addresses other attendants) I want the witch of Gyuna here, by sun-fall. Or... I may not be so merciful.
Attendants: *scatter* Yes, sire, it will be done!
Act 2, Scene 1 (Moresuke, The Next Day)
Canon, Atsura, and Imeda are hiding while the raiders do whatever they want. Vandalism, etc.
Canon: Why do we hide from these men?
Atsura: Because they outnumber us, and they're armed. We can't risk confrontation with them.
Canon: So we let them pillage?
Imeda: I grant you, it doesn't make much sense.
Atsura: What can I do?! Sparrow's taken most of the Ameyura for some mysterious mission, and I'm stuck here with a handful of troops.
Canon: We don't have to use the troops to fight if everyone fights. Then we'd outnumber the raiders!
Imeda: If we stand up to them, the others will rise with us!
Canon: We're stronger united!
Atsura: I guess that might work.
Imeda: You clumsy gorilla-man.
Scene 2 (The Same)
Raiders: *prepare to leave*
Canon, Imeda, and Atsura: *stand in way*
Raider Leader (R.L.): What do we have here?
Atsura: We're done lying down.
Canon: Leave now. Please.
Imeda: We don't like you!
R.L.: What a pity. Me and my boys don't plan on leaving for a while, now that things have gotten a bit more interesting.
Atsura: They might get too interesting if you don't leave.
R.L.: You're threatening me? *laughs* I don't know if you noticed, but your badly outnumbered here.
Atsura: You're outnumbered, I have the entire village with me!
R.L.: *looks around, smirks* I don't see anyone.
Atsura: When they see us fight, they'll back us up.
R.L.: But there won't be any fighting. *grabs Imeda*
Atsura: You jerk!
Canon: …!
R.L.: You two are gonna back down now, or else... *smiles*
Atsura: *grits teeth* Gr...
Canon: *punches R.L. in face*
R.L.: Whoa! *lets go of Imeda*
Imeda: *kicks him*
R.L.: G-get them! *gasping for breath*
For a moment, it looks like it's going to end ugly for the brave trio, until Gekkou runs up next to them. After Gekkou goes, Gramps Sensei walks up. Next is the blacksmith, then the shopkeeper, until everyone stands behind them.
Atsura: It's over. You've lost this place. Leave before you lose your life.
R.L.: It's not over! *glances around* Let's go! *Raiders leave* We'll be back!
Scene 3 (Irakura's Palace)
The throne room doors open, and a seemingly gorgeous woman walks in.
Irakura: Welcome, er...
Woman: My name is Anaguro.
Irakura: Welcome, Anaguro. I hope you've found your stay in the capital pleasing.
Anaguro (Woman): It sucked.
Irakura: I don't care. You're here for one purpose; to get rid of a pesky sparrow.
Anaguro: I know. And I can, if the price is right.
Irakura: *smiles* You'd be surprised at what I can offer you.
