Author: Mad Cat

Opening Scene, Asteroid Belt

Inside one of the asteroids a shadowy figure moves deep inside the cave 
and continues its descent towards an altar. The altar light up three 
glowing spheres.

HASH’AK’GIK
What took you so long?

MYSTERIOUS FIGURE
Please forgive me my Lord, recovering the ashes of that creature wasn’t 
as easy as I thought it was.

HASH’AK’GIK
It seems that my brother really did a number on that wyrm. No matter, 
its ashes will do just fine. Anyway how are things going in the 
unsealing of the Star guardians?

MYSTERIOUS FIGURE
They are progressing as schedule my Lord.

HASH’AK’GIK
Excellent! , I’ll need their “support” for my complete resurrection.

MYSTERIOUS FIGURE
My Lord, What about Vergil’s Chosen and his “new” army?

HASH’AK’GIK
I can’t easily take care of them by myself, but in my current condition 
I’m practically as harmless as kitten, but I can still create the 
equipment you need to take care of them Jester.

JESTER
I’m honored my Lord.

JESTER moves towards the altar and a strange and gloomy aura consumes 
JESTER’S body entirely. After a few moments JESTER is release from the 
aura revealing that his body has been completely modified. JESTER 
realize that he’s no longer an organic hyena and that his body has been 
completely transform into machine, his dark skin is now made of dark 
titanium, his energy source is now a magical adamant crystal in his 
heart, his left eye is red colored, but his left eye is still yellow 
and unmodified.


JESTER
I shall bring Vergil and his army down to its knees!!

HASH’AK’GIK
Go then and don’t you dare come back empty handed.

JESTER opens a fiery portal and goes trough it. As JESTER takes its 
leave another mysterious figure drops in.

MYSTERIOUS FIGURE #2
Are you sure it’s wise to give him all that power?

HASH’AK’GIK
It was you who gave him an unlimited power source, Lucy.

LUCY removes her hood revealing to be a black female cat with white 
patches of fur.

LUCY
I know that, but why did you gave him all that power all of a sudden, 
its not like you to give up things, especially free.

HASH’AK’GIK
Jester has served me for fifty years now and I thought it’s about time 
he proves his worth.

LUCY
He served you alright, by feeding you.

HASH’AK’GIK
Watch your tongue little sister, we may share the same mother, but that 
doesn’t mean I can’t kill you right here and now.

LUCY
As if! You couldn’t kill me then, what makes you think you can kill me 
now?

HASH’AK’GIK
Remember I have your precious amulet.

LUCY takes a few steps back.

LUCY
Damn I forgot about that.
 
The scene fades as HASH’AK’GIK begins to laugh.

Scene 1 Planet Bane, Eternal Fortress

The entire Fortress is covered by a space time anomaly. Suddenly a 
green portal opens up and MARCELLUS comes out of it after exiting the 
portal he extend his hand to the portal and a brown female ox grabs it.

MARCELLUS

Yes I’m fine, so this is your place?

MARCELLUS
Kind of, this were we gather the Chosen so they can train their sealing 
powers.

FEMALE OX

MARCELLUS
Of course not I’m going to train you personally.

FEMALE OX
You were always a gentleman, stubborn but gentle.

MARCELLUS

The female ox stares at the castle one more times.

FEMALE OX
(Thinking)
That castle gives me Goosebumps.

MARCELLUS
Luna, hurry up.

LUNA
Ok I’m coming, keep your horns on.

The two of them move towards the entrance. 

MARCELLUS
Stand back, I’m going to contact them, so they can open the doors and 
let us in. 

MARCELLUS opens a holographic keyboard form his gauntlet and starts 
contacting the gate keeper.



MARCELLUS
Strange, there isn’t any answer. (Sigh) Guess I have to go in manually.

LUNA
(Smiling)
That’s top class service for you.

MARCELLUS gives her an eyebrow.

MARCELLUS
(Checking his cloak’s pockets)
Now, where did I put that device? Oh here its.
 
MARCELLUS raises his right arm.

LUNA
(Clueless)
What the hell is that?
 
MARCELLUS
It’s crystallize water form the near by moon. We called it 
“Quicksilver”; with this we can open a path through this space time 
anomaly.

As Marcellus holds up the Quicksilver, the space time anomaly opens up 
giving them passage to the fortress. MARCELLUS and LUNA approach the 
entrance, MARCELLUS hold up his amulet and the amulet starts to emit a 
green aura, the door acknowledge the amulet and opens is doors. As the 
doors open and a familiar song can be heard (Loverboy - Everybody's 
Working For The Weekend).

Scene 2 Eternal Fortress, Entrance Hall


WHITE MALE CAT
(Singing)
Everyone is watching to see you’ll do, everyone is looking at you, oooh 
, everyone is trying to get it right, get it right, EVERYBODY IS 
WORKING FOR THE WEEKEND…

Marcellus’s eyes turn red and start breathing deeply.

MARCELLUS
(Soft tone)
Did you know that we were outside freezing our tails off?




WHITE MALE CAT
(Singing)
EVERYBODY NEDDS A SECOND CHANCE…

MARCELLUS steps back and starts moving toward the boom box.

MARCELLUS
Try partying your whiskers off without this!!!
MARCELLUS summons a new and more tuned war hammer.

MARCELLUS
Eder Kaiser!!!!!!!

The boom box and half of the wall get blown away.

WHITE MALE CAT
Hey what’s the big idea? (Notices Marcellus and Luna) (Sigh) Oh…

MARCELLUS
Carl what did Lord Vergil told you about the loud music?

CARL
I know, but I can’t live without loud music, it helps me concentrate on 
my spells.

MARCELLUS 
That loud crap helps?

CARL
Loud crap? … That’s a classic song from the “U” dimension! So show some 
respect!


MARCELLUS
Yeah, whatever…. By the way where is Lord Vergil?

CARL
He’s licking his wounds form the last battles he had last month.

MARCELLUS
He has been in the rejuvenation room for a month?

CARL
(Takes deep breath)
Yeah… must have been though.


MARCELLUS
Well fighting a demon king and a dragon wyrm the same day can be quite 
exhausting.

CARL 
Don’t forget about his chosen and the “extra luggage”.

Suddenly Jill appears behind Carl and hits him on the head.
CARL
Hey!! What did I do wrong?

JILL
(Coldly)
I’m not here for your enjoyment.

CARL
(Grinning)
I don’t hang out with old hags.

Jill smiles at him.

JILL
One of these days you’re going to need my help and I’m just going to 
ignore your wailings.

CARL
Riiiiiight.
 
Marcellus gets annoyed by the conversation and takes Luna to the 
dinning room.

Scene 3 Eternal Fortress, Dining Room

The dining room is completely covered by bright lights, there are some 
dragon shape statues in the middle of room and the table is cover by a 
silk white mantel.

LUNA 
(Amused)
This is amazing, how did you guys manage to get hold of this place?

MARCELLUS
This table was a gift from the fourth queen of Aldebaran.

LUNA
(Puts her hand on her chin)
Queen Isis? But that was like 800 years ago.


MARCELLUS
Yes, our Lord had some business on Aldebaran for some time now.

LUNA
No kidding. So did he and Queen Isis…you know…

MARCELLUS
 (Smiling)
No they didn’t, you see Isis was his sister.

LUNA
(Gasp)
No way, that means that Vergil is…
MARCELLUS
Exactly he’s the Queen Katrina’s great, great, great, great uncle.

LUNA
Does she know about this?

MARCELLUS
No…

LUNA
Why?

MARCELLUS
Let us say that there are forces that won’t stop until they get Vergil 
were it hurts a lot.

LUNA
So he’s protecting his family….at the cost of never revealing the 
truth. I kinda feel sorry for him.

MARCELLUS
Don’t be… that’s the way he has been living for over 800 years.

LUNA
By the way, how did you all get these powers?

MARCELLUS
Aren’t you the curious one?

LUNA
Well I’m practically part of the “family” here.



MARCELLUS
A thousand years ago there was a war between the denizens of the 
Aniverse and aberrations of the underworld. The war lasted for more 
than a hundred years ago, until someone with the powers of the gods 
themselves drove the demons back to the darkness in which they came. 
That warrior knew that someday those creatures would emerge so he 
divided his powers and sealed them inside fifteen amulets. Those 
amulets remained sealed in hidden places until some “fools” had the 
nerve of unsealing their power and well here we are.



LUNA
Were you one of the fools?

MARCELLUS
(Embarrass) (Coughing)
Yes…
Luna starts hugging Marcellus.

LUNA
Will you stay with me, at least for a while?

MARCELLUS
(Smiling)
But of course, the night is still young.

Jester begins to summon a large orb on his hand. The large orb is 
consumed by a dark gray aura.

body and after that you are going to become part of my Lord and Master.

room. Some aldebaran guards move in and surround Jester

crushing through the ceiling.

My queen, are you alright?

KATRINA
(Takes a deep breath)
Yes my child, but there’s no time for this, where’s Felicia?

KATRINA
(Angry)
What did you do?

JESTER
(Smiling)

Katrina falls to her knees. Felicia moves forward and rubs her 
grandmother’s cheek and then gives a punch on her face.

FELICIA

KATRINA
I had to seal your powers, because I did want you to end up like 
Cassie.

FELICIA

Jester starts smiling and opens a portal made of fire.

JESTER

Lucy.

FELICIA

Incredible, I have never seen such magic before.

JESTER

by the waist. Felicia starts to tremble a little.
