Volume 3 - Massacre

Massacre


Scene 1 [The Outskirts of the Deri Jungle]
Sparrow: All right gang, here we go. Into the rabbit hole…
[The Ameyura enter the jungle cautiously]

Scene 2 [In The Jungle]
[The group comes across a small force of soldiers, who are resting at the foot of a big tree.]
Sparrow: *sneaks towards them, and whispers* On my mark…
[The whole group sneaks towards them, as Sparrow counts (with his fingers) down from three to one. On one, they attack. They easily capture the soldiers.]
Sparrow: Those of you who denounce the Prince may live. Those who do not, shall die.
Canon: What?! We never talked about this!
Sparrow: Silence! I stand by my word.
Four of the eight soldiers: Sure, we denounce him!
Sparrow: They may leave.
[Those soldiers are set free, they quickly scurry off.]
The other four soldiers: We’ll never deny him.
Sparrow: Too bad for You. Maru?
Maru: Sure thing. *decapitates one of the soldiers*
Canon: *turns away in horror and disgust*
Atsura: Sparrow, this is-
Sparrow: Quiet, Atsura. Again, Maru.
Maru: *stabs another soldier*
Soldier: wait! I denounce him!
Sparrow: Nice try, trickster. I know you’re lying. Do him next Maru.
Maru: *lops off his arms then stabs him in the throat*
Atsura: Stop this madness!
Sparrow: Restrain him!
Canon: *rushes forward*
Sparrow: Stop them!
[In the scuffle, the last soldier gets away.]
Sparrow: Great, look what You did.
Canon: What were YOU doing?! That was insane!
Sparrow: I did what I had to.
Canon: …
Sparrow: If you continue, you’ll see how I treat mutineers.
Canon: *calms down*

Scene 3 [Somewhere Within The Jungle]
[The Ameyura are uneasy after the executions. They pass a village. Sparrow tells everyone to wait, and goes to talk to the people. On his return, he tells everyone that there’s nothing to fear, and they’ll be resting for the night. They make camp.]
Scene 4 [The Village They Passed]
[Sparrow is creeping towards the village with Maru, and several others.]
Maru: I thought they were no threat?
Sparrow: That was a lie. I had to tell the others that, so we could do this. They don’t have the will to do what has to be done, and they’re weak to the point where they may try to stop us. So, we’ll do it ourselves, in secret.
Others: We understand. And we obey.
[Sparrow and his gang massacre everyone in the village.]
