INT. A DIMLY LIT CELL603Please respect copyright.PENANAwCCyLAqTvt
THREE MEN are shackled on the floor of the dim, dank cell. The sound of a crowd roaring can be heard in the distance. MAN ONE is quaking and sobbing. MAN TWO is muttering to himself while rocking back and forth. MAN THREE (an extremely well built man with long blonde hair)looks calm and collected. KELVAN, a grizzled man with too many scars to count, appears at the door of the cell.603Please respect copyright.PENANAKbLUs9Ucvy

Give the good sword to blondie. He might have had a chance if it weren't for these two worthless worms.603Please respect copyright.PENANALvNmRaITCu
The two guards unshackle all of the men. A SERVANT GIRL enters holding weapons. Rusty old blades, that look like well used garden machetes, are handed to the two scared men. A sharp looking sword is handed to Man Three (now known as BLONDIE).603Please respect copyright.PENANAu7QziA0Ftu
INT. DIM HALLWAY603Please respect copyright.PENANAVgyRO8kOUP
The three men are forced out of their cell by the guards and ushered down a hallway. There is light coming through the doorway at the end. Kelvan and the servant girl watch from behind. Man One wets himself. The urine runs down his legs as they get closer to the door. The screams of the crowd get louder as they get closer. When they approach the door one of the guards knocks twice on it and it flies open, flooding the room with sunlight.603Please respect copyright.PENANAWxE8UBWkal
EXT. A MAKESHIFT, OUTDOOR ARENA WITH BLOOD SPLOTCHES ON THE GROUND603Please respect copyright.PENANAprcGL3qAkB
A GLADIATOR dressed in patchwork armor made of football pads, a motorcycle helmet, spikes, leather and chain is holding a huge axe in the center of the arena. He is playing up to the cheering crowd. The three men stand in the door way as it shuts. Man One turns and starts banging on the door.603Please respect copyright.PENANAQejDo0A63g
MAN ONE603Please respect copyright.PENANAZSnp7E32IF
Please! Please! Let me back in!603Please respect copyright.PENANAchbSquqi1f

MAN ONE603Please respect copyright.PENANAfkGF7PQXGb
Please, Gemini! Please! I've learned my lesson! I will make up for the rations I took! My family was starving!603Please respect copyright.PENANAwNfbZYJ3MI
The important looking man (now known as GEMINI) stands and looks down on the pleading man. The crowd becomes silent. 603Please respect copyright.PENANABbSiMXNaHD
GEMINI (IN AN UNNATURALLY LOUD VOICE)603Please respect copyright.PENANAVzxKq3lkIk
Your family is now in a labor camp. Let this man serve as a warning to any who steal from the state. 603Please respect copyright.PENANA1LW8hk5vYU
Man One is cleaved in half by the gladiator and his axe. The crowd goes wild. Gemini smiles and sits. He nods to an ANNOUNCER who is not far from them. The Announcer grabs his microphone. 603Please respect copyright.PENANAjDSj6ZXzN0

BLONDIE603Please respect copyright.PENANAja26bFnLl4
Stay near me. We must work together.603Please respect copyright.PENANAQIU8flRdw8
The sound of thunder crashes through the sky again. Man Two continues to breath heavy as he flanks Blondie. Vulture heads towards them. The gladiator swings at them several times with his axe. The two men are able to dodge each blow.603Please respect copyright.PENANAlMr9FH6rIN
BLONDIE603Please respect copyright.PENANALzhlK5QHpO
Follow my attack!603Please respect copyright.PENANA5rnysZhwIY

BLONDIE603Please respect copyright.PENANAyP99NWHDMp
Follow my attack!603Please respect copyright.PENANAJYZF54KwKJ
Blondie swings his sword several times, but is met by Vulture as he takes his axe in both hands and slams the handle into Blondie’s face. Thunder continues to rumble. Blondie falls to the ground. Vulture turns towards Man Two. He then shakes his head and starts showboating for the crowd. Man Two pumps himself up and makes a screaming run for Vulture. Just as he is about to reach Vulture the gladiator spins around and sinks his axe through the top of Man Two’s head. The axe splits him nearly in half as it goes all the way through his sternum. Vulture pulls out his axe and struts around the arena as the crowd goes crazy. Blondie recovers. His nose is busted and his face is covered in blood. 603Please respect copyright.PENANATPaxEsTb39
ANNOUNCER603Please respect copyright.PENANAgDOyKWo5qm
And another one bites the dust! How long will this last treacherous bastard last against the mighty Vulture?603Please respect copyright.PENANAbTDXLmWhxA
Vulture and Blondie circle each other. It is clear that Blondie is no stranger to combat. He is quite calm. They each exchange swings of their weapons as the thunder crashes on. Blondie closes the gap and engages Vulture in a clinch. He uses his knees and starts slamming them into Vulture’s legs, which are only protected by some leather and some thigh pads. Vulture flinches and Blondie is able to throw him in a head and arm. Vulture crashes on the ground and Blondie comes down on top of him. Vulture’s motorcycle helmet flies off. They both scramble back to their weapons. Vulture swings again, but Blondie ducks underneath and slashes the gladiator’s thigh. Vulture screams and staggers backwards. 603Please respect copyright.PENANAg34HPw9GMv

Interesting.603Please respect copyright.PENANADfMsmqKiE2
Vulture’s wild swings come to a peak frenzy as he slams his axe into the wall. He tries to recover it, but by then it is too late. Blondie hacks the gladiator’s forearms off as he attempts to pull the axe free. Vulture screams in agony as Blondie cleaves half of his head off. The gladiator falls lifeless to the ground. The crowd sits in stunned silence. Gemini begins to clap and the rest of the crowd follows suit. Before long they are screaming and cheering as the thunder continues to deafen them. 603Please respect copyright.PENANAy6b0nZRlpp
