LOTM: Defenders P5/Transcript

(Alex and Jessica are both seen sitting on the beach together)

Alex: *smiles*

Jessica: This is nice Alex.

Alex: Sure is Jess. Just you and me.

Jessica: Yeah...

(The two sit together hugging)

Jessica: At least we could get a break from the party.

Alex: Yeah, just enough for our alone time.

Jessica: And what fun it's- ....

Alex: Hm? Jess?

Jessica: H-Hold on- hehehe, what the heck is that??

Alex: Is something wrong? What's so funny?

Jessica: Nothing! *Giggles* S-Something's tickling me!

Alex: Huh??

(Alex looks at Jessica before he sees a Targhul Infant bonded to her side)

Alex: Wha-

???: Oh Alex there you two are!

(Rayla then runs up)

Alex: Rayla?

Rayla: Hey Alex, you wouldn't have happened to see a Targhul Infant outside of the nest have you? He got out not too long ago.

Alex: *Points to the bonded infant* You mean him?

Jessica: *giggles*

Rayla: Wha- Hey now! What are you doing to Jessica?

(The infant then separates from Jessica)

???: *Cooing*

Rayla: *Picks up the infant* I can't turn away from any of you for two seconds can I?

Alex: How did he get out?

Rayla: Oh, Davey left the door open earlier. We thought no one got out, at least not until we did roll call.

Alex: I see.

Rayla: Yeah.

Jessica: Is Davey okay?

Rayla: Yeah he's fine. He apologized for leaving it open.

Jessica: That's good. I thought Davey might over react to this.

Rayla: He was about to but we calmed him down before he got started.

???: *Cooing*

Rayla: Aw it's okay kiddo.

Jessica: Well as long as Davey's alright.

Rayla: He is. This little guy didn't hurt you now did he Jess?

Jessica: No he didn't. He just bonded was all.

Rayla: Well that's good. Do you guys wanna head down to the nest with me?

Alex: Oh, sure!

Jessica: Yeah we can come down. We're not doing anything important right now.

Rayla: Great! Then come on!

(Alex and Jessica stand up)

Rayla: You wanna hold the baby Jessica?

Jessica: Sure!

(Rayla hands the infant to Jessica)

???: *Happy cooing*

Jessica: Aw hey there little guy!

(The Infant coos as Jessica hugs it. The four then approach the nest)

Rayla: X! Open up!

(The door opens up as X steps out)

X: Hey Rayla. Did you find the missing one?

Rayla: Yep. Jessica has it.

X: Oh thank god.

???: *cooing*

X: Is he okay?

Jessica: Yeah he's okay. He did bond to me though.

X: Well as long as he didn't hurt anyone.

Jessica: Oh I doubt any of your kids would hurt someone. You've raised them too well.

X: *Puts an arm around Rayla* Not alone I haven't.

Rayla: Oh you give me too much credit.

X: No I don't sweetie.

Rayla: Awww.

Alex: So, can we come in?

X: Sure! Come on in guys!

(Alex and Jessica enter the nest with the two)

Jessica: *sigh* Nice to see this place full of life again.

Alex: Yeah.

X: And it's all thanks to you guys.

Rayla: Yep.

Alex: Eh it was more thanks to Jessica. I was dusted back there.

Jessica: Yeah...

Rayla: Well thanks either way. You've been a big help for us no matter what.

Jessica: Aww thanks Rayla.

Alex: We appreciate it.

Rayla: No prob.

(The infants in the nursery then see Alex and Jessica)

???: *gasp* They're back!

???: Alex! Jessica!

(The infants all cheer in happiness)

Alex: Hey kids!

Jessica: How's everyone doing?

???: Good!

???: We're fine guys!

Alex: That's good to hear!

X: Say uhh Alex?

Alex: Hm?

X: Would you two be willing to take them to the play room? Me and Rayla have an important chat to deal with.

Alex: Oh sure!

Jessica: Yeah we'd be glad to guys!

X: Thanks guys.

Alex: Alright kids, follow us!

Jessica: We're all gonna go play!

(The infants all cheer as they follow the two into the play room)

Rayla: You think they'll be alright by themselves?

X: Oh yes. They learned from last time. I'm sure they did.

Rayla: Alright.

X: Now then, let's go someplace private and discuss this.

Rayla: Okay.

(The two go to talk in private as Alex and Jessica are seen leading the infants into the play room)

Alex: Here we are kids!

Jessica: You kids ready to have fun?

???: We are!

???: We're all so glad you came back!

???: We had so much fun last time!

Alex: We know you did!

Jessica: But we need to set some ground rules.

???: Ground rules?

Alex: Yeah. From now on, you guys can't bond to us all at once.

Jessica: Yes please don't do that again.

???: Did we hurt you last time?

Alex: No.

Jessica: It's just....complicated is all.

???: Oh, okay.

Alex: If you guys REALLY want to bond, you'll have to take turns. And we have a limit. Only 3 at a time.

???: Okay!

???: Can we do it right now?

(Alex and Jessica look at each other and both shrug)

Alex: Sure why not?

Jessica: As long as you stand by the rules.

(6 go up to Alex and Jessica and 3 each bond with them)

Alex: All right! Now the rest of you! Let's play some games!

Infants: YAY!!

Jessica: Yeah!

(The group then starts to play as the scene cuts to X and Rayla alone together)

X: Alright, I think we're alright to talk here.

Rayla: I take it this is again about having kids?

X:.....

Rayla: X?

X: Maaaybe?

Rayla: *sigh*

X: Rayla, you know it's inevitable. Your body's gonna create an infant any day at this rate.
