LOTM: Burning Sun S3 P3/Transcript

(The heroes are seen walking to the area where the nest is located)

Daniel: Just a bit further guys!

Adam: Man it's kinda cold out here.

Oliver: Yeah, it's a tundra. What did you expect?

Adam: I don't know to be honest.

(Amanda is seen looking at her stomach)

Amanda: Remember Jamie, stay quiet, no shifting.

Jamie: *Voice* Got it!

Amanda: Good.

Adriana: You sure it's a good idea to bring him here?

Amanda: Hey, we can't leave him alone!

Adriana: Still...

Amanda: Aww come on, you know it's bad to leave babies home alone.

Adriana: Right.

Amanda: Besides, he won't get hurt!

Amanda: If you say so.

Amanda: *Smile*

Daniel: There, just up ahead.

(The heroes keep walking until they end up at a Targhul Nest with wreckage from the Atlas vehicles that attacked it)

Amanda: Whoa...

Adam: Looks like a total warzone out here.

Daniel: Yeah...

Oliver: Guess the Targhuls were more than they could handle.

Daniel: Right.

Adam: You sure it's a good idea to be this close? I mean, they're working for Salem so that must mean they know about us Daniel.

Daniel: Relax bro we're fine. It doesn't seem like anyone's watching out here.

(Daniel looks at the nest)

Daniel: In fact, it seems kinda quiet.

Amanda: Yeah, too quiet.

Adriana: Kinda giving me the willies.

Amanda: You think we should just.... knock?

Daniel:.....

Adam: I uhh-

Oliver: Maybe Adriana can knock.

Adriana: M-Me?

Oliver: They might still think you're an Insurgent leader.

Adriana: But I AM the insurgent.

Daniel: Not while you're on our team.

Adriana: But-

Oliver: Knock. Now.

Adriana:.... *Sighs* …

(Adriana goes up to the door and knocks)

Adriana: Uh... Hello? Its me. Adriana. Leader of the insurgents.

(No response)

Adriana:......Ummm, *Knocks again* Hello?

(As Adriana knocks, a hand reaches from the door and grabs her wrist)

Adriana: AH!!

Daniel: !!

(A Targhul is seen glaring at Adriana from the crack in the door as it grabs her wrist)

???:......

Adriana: Uh.... H-Hi?

???:…….

Adriana: I uh... I'm Adriana? You know, leader of the insurgents in the Shadowrealm? Loyal to Mistress Salem?

???:.......

Adriana: I'm....friendly?

???: Hmph.

(The Targhul lets go of Adriana's wrist)

???: So you're the leader of those insurgent inferiors?

Adriana: T-That's a bit rude, but yes. I am the leader.

???: Cinder told us you were captured.

Adriana: Oh I uh... I managed to escape.

???: So what do you want then? Shouldn't you report to Mistress Salem?

Adriana: I-I am but uhhh, I wanted to see the nest she found and made loyal to her.

???: Well, you found it. Now fuck off.

Adrianan: H-Hey now, we're suppose to be allies right? We are meant to work together in making the world for our Mistress. Can't I just come in and check things out? I won't get in the way.

???:......

(The Targhul then grabs Adriana's wrist again)

Adriana: !!

???: Let me make something clear. I don't care if you're my ally, if you fuck something up in MY nest, I will suck you dry like the blood bag you are.

Adriana: *holds up other hand* I swear I won't mess anything up! You got my word in the name of our mistress!

???:.....Okay.

Adriana: *Nods* But first!

???: Hm?

Adriana: What's your name?

???: Talon.

Adriana: Nice to meet you Talon.

Talon: Whatever. Come in.

(Talon opens the door and Adriana enters the nest. The door closes after)

Amanda: She made it in.

Daniel: Yeah but, what about us?

Adam:......

Oliver: Let's just wait. Maybe she'll come back.

Amanda: R-Right.

(The others wait behind a rock. The scene then cuts to Adriana and Talon walking through the nest)

Talon:.....

Adriana: So, are you-

Talon: The Alpha? Yes, I am.

Adriana: Oh uhh, g-good to know.

Talon:....

Adriana: Any other leaders around here?

Talon: There's my mate, Kiendra.

Adriana: Oh a wife huh? Lucky guy!

Talon: Hmph.

Adriana: So how did you end up joining with Mistress Salem?

Talon: Well, I was approached by a few different people. Led by a woman with one eye.

Adriana: Cinder?

Talon: Yeah, whatever.

Adriana: Oh, and?

Talon: At the time, this nest was going through a famine. Food here hasn't exactly been....abundant.

Adriana: I see.

Talon: So, they made a deal. They gave us locations for hunting grounds we could use, and we agreed to help Salem.

Adriana: But why?

Talon: Well, the other reason's quite simple. Since the famine, we had to really on another food source.

Adriana: A-And, what's that?

Talon:....Humans, Faunus, whatever creature we could get our hands on.

Adriana: O-Oh. I see.

Talon: You got a problem with that?

Adriana: No no. I mean you gotta eat right?

Talon: Exactly.

Adriana: Yeah you-

Talon: Although, if an Infant we have here is ever.....failed to live up to expectation in this environment, we like to throw them into the food pile.

Adriana:... Wait what?

Talon: I know it sounds....vile, but it's what we do to survive. An Infant doesn't meet our standards or if it's born too weak, it's food. That's the balance.

Adriana: Has... Has it really been that hard to survive that you need to resort to that?

Talon: Yes.

Adriana:.... Reminds me of why I joined up with Mistress Salem.

Talon: Exactly.

???: Oh there you are sweetie.

(The two look to find a purple and red Targhul Female approaching)

Talon: Ah, Kiendra.

(The two approach each other and wrap their arms around one another)

Kiendra: Who's the human?

Talon: Some human who's working for Salem.

Adriana: Hi.

Kiendra: Wow she's got a lot of meat on her doesn't she?

Talon: Yeah, I know.

Adriana:....

Talon: But we can't eat her sweetie. At least, not unless she does something wrong.

Kiendra: Aww that's too bad.

(Kiendra runs her hand down Talon's chest)

Kiendra: I thought we'd be able to have that date night with her flesh as the main course.

Adriana:....

(Adriana looks at Kiendra's body)

Adriana: *Thinking* Those colors. They kinda look like....Jamie's.

Kiendra: Well, no matter. Any kind of supporter for the Mistress is a friend of mine.

Adriana: R-Right.

Kiendra: *Smiles*

(Kiendra walks over to Adriana)

Kiendra: What's your name?
