LOTM: Decimation S5 P20/Transcript

(The Defenders and their allies are seen walking out of the forest)

Erin: Jeez, about time we got out!

Rose: Those flowers really were something weren't they?

Jack: They weren't good.

Tom: Well, at least I managed to keep some.

Erin: You- YOU KEPT SOME?! WHY!?

Tom: I want me and Miles to study some of these. I get the feeling we'll learn some interesting things.

Erin: You just keep those things away from me.

Tom: Will do.

Jack: So Jess, where to now?

Jessica: Well, he's not far. I think if we just keep moving this way, we'll find something.

Ian: Well I do see something up ahead.

Jack: Where?

Ian: *points forward* Over there.

(The heroes look to find a town up ahead)

Ruby: Hey, it's a village!

Jack: Huh. Looks like it.

Izuku: I wonder if they have any info regarding Vosorin.

Momo: We should pay them a visit.

Shantae: Let's try to avoid what happened before though. They might call the guards cause of Rotty and the Targhuls.

Rottytops: *Annoyed huff*

Sky: Come on let's go.

(The heroes all head toward the village before they soon enter it, finding only a few people around)

Izuku: Oh.

Jack: Well, this is lively.

Erin: Where is everybody?

Bolo: Yeah I'm no expert but I feel like this town could hold more people.

Mina: Maybe we should ask the local tavern if they have one.

Jack: There's one over there.

(The heroes look over at the nearby tavern)

Jack: I'll check it out.

Erin: Jack are you sure?

Jack: Erin, you may be my girlfriend but you've got no idea what I used to do as a kid.

Erin: Still, it doesn't seem safe.

Jack: Alright then.

(Jack turns to face the heroes)

Jack: Which one of you will accompany into this place?

Erin: I'm going. Gotta make sure you're okay.

Jack: Isn't that my job but for you?

Erin: You wish.

Uraraka: I'll go to.

Bolo: Mind if I go to? I'd like to do something.

Jack: All right. Anyone else?

Yang: I'll go.

Ian: Same here.

Jack: *whispers* Jesus, bringing a house party here. *Out loud* Alright then, come on!

(Jack and his group all head over to the Tavern. They hear what sounds like some form of cheering going on inside)

Yang: It sounds like a party.

Ian: Wonder if that's the rest of the people.

Jack: Let's find out.

(Jack opens the door)

Jack: Well then.....

(The group looks to find a bunch of people dressed in armor and other things as they all look over at the group)

People:.......

Ian: Uhhh, hi there.

Erin: These guys seem a bit off.

Yang: Yeah.

Jack: Just play it cool guys.

(The group decides to go in, knowing they are being watched by almost every eye in the room as they go to the bartender)

Jack: Hey there barkeep. What's going on? A party or what?

Bartender:......

Jack: You uhhh....You speak English?

Bartender:.....

Jack:.... Oh boy...

(As Jack keeps trying to talk to the Bartender, a couple of the armored men go up to Yang)

Men #1: Well hello there blondie.

Yang: Can I help you?

Man #1: Depends.

Yang: On what?

Men #2: You got any money on you girly?

Yang:... No. I don't.

Men #1: That so? Well. I know other way you can help us out.

Ian: *whisper* Jack.

Jack: Hm?

Ian: *whisper* We've got a problem.

(Jack looks over at Yang)

Jack: Oh crap...

(Jack starts to go over to them)

Yang: Listen guys, we're just passing though.

Man #1: You sure we can't persuade you to stay Blondie? Lot of our friends like to meet you.

Yang: Hey don't think I don't know what-

Jack: Hey there Yang. Is there a problem?

Man #1: Who the hell are you?

Jack: A friend. You mind telling me what you're trying to pull here?

Man #1: Like I have to tell you boy.

Jack: Trust me, this'll be easier if you do.

Man #1: Make me.

(Jack looks around before he looks at the man)

Jack: Okay.

(Jack grabs the man's hand with his metal arm and begins crushing it)

Man #1: GAAAH!!

Jack: Now are you gonna leave?

Man #2: *Pulls out sword* Hey! Drop him now!!

(Several of the armored guys all start to reach for weapons. Jack let's him go as the man holds his broken hand)

Man #1: HE BROKE MY HAND!!

Man #2: Oh that's it! Now you all owe us double!

Uraraka: Double? Double what?

Man #1: The amount you owe us for coming to our town!

Jack: Oh I see what's going on here.

Ian: You do?

Jack: Yeah. These aren't citizens, these are bandits!

Erin: Bandits?!

Jack: Yep!
