Holy almost one year later Batman!...
I've had part of part two on my computer for awhile now... It's just sitting around doing a whole lot of nothing. I honestly think I'll probably let the topic just die again I'll just post what I got and then fill you in on where I was going to take the story. I wrote the first part in such a hack way that even when I'm tempted to work on the damned thing I reread it to get ready and blam-o. Who knows though, maybe I'll pick it up this time next year...
I've done zero editing on this and zero proof reading... This is more of a here you go skeleton post rather then an actual addition to the story.
EPISODE II -- Who has what role?
Scene 1 INT. A warm house
A fireplace keeps the room in a warm glow as QUAN lays still on a cot. Wrapped not unlike an Egyptian mummy any sort of movement Quan would like to make is all but impossible. Next to Quan is the figure of a frail individual. With his trusty big bag-o-medicine in hand, the DOCTOR is tending to Quan's injuries.
While the house seems warm to guests the patients of the Doctor can attest to something different. No one is quite sure what qualifications the Doctor has or if he has any at all. A running bet made around the Village is he got his education from one of those Advanced Medical Treatment for Dummies books available Nation wide.
DOCTOR: Oh what a mess.
Quan feebly flails around, awoken by the Doctor's treatment.
QUAN: Where... Where am I?
DOCTOR: Calm yourself. You've been through hell enough as it is. Do you know how hard it is to set broken bones?
QUAN: Broken bones?! I don't feel a thing!
DOCTOR: Yeah... Indiscriminate amounts of morphine can do that to a person.
QUAN: What kind of doctor are you?
DOCTOR: The only kind. Now rest. You're safe with me tonight.
Quan, quite groggy from the combination of cranial trauma and medication falls back asleep. The Doctor proceeds to sit beside him and stare in the fireplace.
Scene 2 -- EXT. Outside The Run Down Victorian House
A cold wind can be felt as the two figures stare at one another. The "OFFICER" still somewhat in the shadows takes a drag of his cigarette while JACKSTICK, shocked to find anyone around, stands in full attention.
OFFICER: That's exactly why this place was chose.
Jackstick makes an oafish attempt to communicate, bumbling between words as he's unaware of the Officer's intentions.
OFFICER: There is little this badge can do. Everyone wears it on the force and yet it serves as little deterrent to the mafia.
JACKSTICK: Uhh... Why are yo...u he..re?
OFFICER: A better question is why are you here?
JACKSTICK: I came to investigate this building! I'm the Nocturnal Detective!
OFFICER: You came to investigate where the Baker lives?
JACKSTICK: Someone lives here?
OFFICER: Well... Not in years. Bakers aren't really renown for their craftsmanship and they're often found baking. Muffin doesn't come by here often. But yes... Muffin lives here.
JACKSTICK: This is getting us nowhere! Plus, you've yet to tell me what you're doing here!
OFFICER: Fair is fair I suppose. I never seen myself as much of an officer. I've always considered myself more of a Vigilante. And today, I've struck at the root of our problem. I don't know how many mafia are left, but I've taken care of one.
JACKSTICK: I've got to take you to Jaron! You could fit in our plans beautifully.
Dawn begins to break as both Jackstick and the Officer make their way to the Town Hall.
Scene 3 -- EXT. Outside of the Town Hall
The sun has rose to rule the sky once more. Shining down its ever warming glow, sleepy Villages are awakened by panic in the streets. In a flash, a large crowd gathers around the town fountain, placed before the staircase to the Town Hall building. The cement of the fountain is stained with blood of the body lying next to it. The DOCTOR's corpse lays motionless and broken, his mouth stuffed with a confession of being part of the mysterious Mafia organization. Naturally, the VNEWS crew is first to report on the scene.
NEWS PUNDIT: We're on scene with the grizzly death of the Town Doctor! Here! Take a look at the corpse!
NEWS ANCHOR: That's certainly a corpse alright! Do the police have a theory on what happened?
NEWS PUNDIT: Well the police on scene have declined to get into details about the investigation but a source in the department tells me that the Doctor was part of the illusive Mafia. This would make the first confirmed sighting of the mafia in years!
NEWS ANCHOR: The Mafia... Scary stuff Pundit.
NEWS PUNDIT: Indeed it is. The source also was a bit perplexed as to why the mafia would have killed one of their own. The theory is, at the moment, an unknown person or group found the doctor treating someone and killed the doctor. The source also stated the unnatural blood patterns may also be a clue.
NEWS ANCHOR: Unusual patterns?
NEWS PUNDIT: Yes. The pools of blood were arranged in odd shapes and figures. It's unknown if they have any significance but it sure makes my skin crawl!
NEWS ANCHOR: As it does mine! Thanks for watching VNEWS, stay tuned for more updates as they become available to us! Next is Village Idol! Henner leads by a nose, can he stay on top?
The VNEWS crew begins to head back to the station while the police department has managed to get most of the gawkers to return to their day. As the news crew gets into their van and drives off two figures can be seen in the distance approaching the scene of the crime.
Scene 4 would of been a scene where the mafia, mostly in shadow discuss current plans and Quan being identified as the Mafia Framer.
Scene 5 would be a monologue between Jackstick and Jaron about the death of the doctor and Jaron being introduced to the OFFICER who would from that part on be known as the VIGILANTE. I would of gave this character a Villager representation, but I didn't know who would want it...
Scene 6 would of been an introduction to the Cultists, who invade the VNEWS Station.
I won't post the character alignments because I might actually pick up the story again... I have been really tempted to for some reason recently... But most of them are probably obvious anyways.
