Hype: the series sign up

MY CHARACTER IS SO BADASS t:

 

[Socrates]

Dude.

That was brilliant.

 

[Master Chief]

I only changed a few lines (thanksgiving turkey, closing line), added a few lines, and I'm most proud of making the action pieces a bit more descriptive. mMmmmhmm. JJ gets credit for the rest, he rules, with classes and whatnot he should write for hollywood or something.

 

[Socrates]

Well I'm telling you it was brilliant since JJ isn't here. How many episodes are left anyway? I feel like aiding in some way.

 

[Master Chief]

I can't remember, it's probably something like 20ish. 22 or something. I dunno. In totale.

 

[hippie_hunter]

I can't remember, it's probably something like 20ish. 22 or something. I dunno. In totale.

I WANT TO FIND OUT ABOUT MY PAST BEFORE THE SERIES ENDS

 

[Equint77]

i've been here for ever and I have no ****ing idea what this thread is about....

 

[Elisha Cuthbert]

Well I'm telling you it was brilliant since JJ isn't here. How many episodes are left anyway? I feel like aiding in some way.

You're the one that quit. I suppose i could aim you and ask some questions on some things or something, but you lost your writing priviliges until the finale. I don't know, i think we may go 22 episodes or some altogether so that's like...8 eps away. But we're gonna do this weekly now. Yeah.

 

[Master Chief]

I WANT TO FIND OUT ABOUT MY PAST BEFORE THE SERIES ENDS

Take it up with the boss man. There's still tons of stuff to cover I think, but it seems to be really running thin in my eyes. I wonder how he'll pull it off. You'll prolly get your flashback episode before everything's finished though. I can't guarantee anything. 'Cause I don't write the episodes.

 

[Socrates]

I may have quit, but I really want to contribue again.

 

[Elisha Cuthbert]

I honestly have no idea what hh's past is, I was actually planning on doing something different with his focused ep that might piss some people off.

 

[deemar325]

Cool Master Chief this will be my last post on here, sorry if I ruined the flow later.

 

[Master Chief]

Cool Master Chief this will be my last post on here, sorry if I ruined the flow later.

Yeah man, no prollem. There's no flow though so don't sweat it, laters.

 

[hippie_hunter]

I honestly have no idea what hh's past is, I was actually planning on doing something different with his focused ep that might piss some people off.

LIKE WHAT

 

[Elisha Cuthbert]

LIKE WHAT

well i can't really tell you cause it'll spoil the surprise, but i can tell you this: no matter if I come up with some kind of awe-inspiring background for your character or not, it's still going to piss you off.

 

[hippie_hunter]

well i can't really tell you cause it'll spoil the surprise, but i can tell you this: no matter if I come up with some kind of awe-inspiring background for your character or not, it's still going to piss you off.

YOU'RE GOING TO MAKE MY CHARACTER GAY OR SOMETHING.

OR WORSE, YOU'LL PROBALLY MAKE ME A FORMER HIPPY OR THE SON OF HIPPIES

OR MAYBE I GET RAPED BY MY MOST HATED ENEMY, THE GRIMACE

you'll see exactly where i'm going with this sooner than you think.

 

[Once and Future]

Why am I...I mean, why is The Exalted such a diabolical Bastard? I like

the whole ruling anti-hero bit that Jolly established, I just think that the

character would be flushed out with more "FEAR ME's!!!" and lines of Honey

Vibe worship. The few times I come to this site I always read this and enjoy

it keep up the good work!

Dude, you rule! I miss your love and peace stuff.

EPISODE 15: CHAIN REACTION​

​

FADE TO BLACK
FLASHBACK
FADE IN
EXT. PLAYGROUND – DAY
The sunlight bounces off the merry-go-round as it spins carrying children on its back. A young white boy wearing bling-bling, probably around the age of 8, is sitting on a park bench by himself. We zoom out from him, past trees and the kids playing in them.

INT. OFFICE ROOM – DAY
Through the window the playground is clearly visible. A young doctor wearing glasses and holding a clipboard watches the window closely, particularly the boy. This doctor is CHAIN REACTION. She taps her pen on her clipboard anxiously. A panicked man wearing all blue approaches her.

PANICKED GUY​

Doctor, we need you now.​

​

Chain Reaction shuts the blinds, turns around and nods. She puts the clipboard on the table and follows the man out of the room.

INT. HOSPITAL HALLWAY – DAY
An attractive man in his 20’s with black hair has a huge wound in his head, blood pouring and squirting all over the place, the medical bed he is being carried on is drenched in red as are the doctors and nurses rush about him in a panic. Chain Reaction runs over; a blue mask protecting her face.

CHAIN REACTION
What’s going on?​

​

DOCTOR #1​

Jonathan Klemp, he was here visiting someone when he shot himself in the head in the waiting room.​

​

CHAIN REACTION​

Jesus…right out in the open?​

​

DOCTOR #1​

Yeah, we don’t know why he did it but he’s lost a lot of blood and there was no exit wound. He’s still conscious.​

​

CHAIN REACTION
Not long…we need to remove the bullet from his brain. I need a scalpel.​

​

​

The doctor hands Chain Reaction a scalpel. They move into the surgery room, stopping as a bright white light shines down on John’s head, illuminating the bloody mess. Chain Reaction takes the scalpel and skillfully, without hesitation, jams it into the wound. The man screams. Chain Reaction removes the scalpel and with it, the bullet, making the man scream in agony again. He starts seizing. Blood is still flying all over the place. He grabs Chain Reaction by the throat while violently convulsing and pulls her until they’re nose to nose, and he speaks through clenched teeth.

JONATHAN KLEMP
The ferret…don’t let it get to me….​

​

He falls back and stares up at the ceiling, his eyes roll into the back of his head and the EKG flat lines. Chain Reaction closes his eye lids, shuts the EKG, and then looks up at the shocked doctors who are all staring at her.

CHAIN REACTION
He’s dead…someone call it.​

​

FADE TO BLACK
FLASHBACK ENDS
FADE IN
INT. TRAINING ROOM – DAY
Chain Reaction sits with her back to the wall, watching Robin play with Ball Buster’s old G.I. Joe action figures. He makes exploding sounds and has Cobra call all of his soldiers dirty hoes. She laughs as she watches him. Next to her, Ball Buster sits, pretending to watch Robin but more watching her.

BALL BUSTER
Do you work out?​

​

CHAIN REACTION
What?​

​

BALL BUSTER
I’m just saying you have a great stomach. It must take you a long time to tone that. Like what, 600 crunches every hour?​

​

Chain Reaction nods, smiling.

CHAIN REACTION
I’m glad you noticed. But not that many.​

​

BALL BUSTER​

So am I.​

​

She laughs and then looks back at Robin through her glasses, a smug grin coming to her face.

BALL BUSTER
Hey, you don’t think it’s creepy or anything?​

​

CHAIN REACTION
What?​

​

BALL BUSTER
Well, the fact that I was looking at your stomach.​

​

She shakes her head.

CHAIN REACTION
No. I think it’s cute.​

​

Ball Buster smiles, the first genuine smile he’s had in a long time. Then Sentinel walks into the room with severe damage to the robotic gear on his head, and the warm family scene that was created in the glum facility is broken.

BALL BUSTER
Well look who’s here.​

​

ROBIN
Sentinel!​

​

Robin runs up and hugs Sentinel_08, who laughs and picks him up, then puts him back down on the ground. Ball Buster gets up with the help of his crutches, eying Sentinel closely.

SENTINEL_08
Okay, Robin…you want to go for a piggy-back ride?​

​

ROBIN
Piggy-back ride? Kick ass!​

​

BALL BUSTER
Not too fast, slick…Sentinel and I have to talk first—privately.​

​

ROBIN
Aw!​

​

Sentinel looks over at Ball Buster, confused.

​

SENTINEL_08​

What is it Michael?​

​

BALL BUSTER
Nothing, we just need to talk and then you can give Robin his piggy-back ride. Chain Reaction can watch him now.​

​

Chain Reaction nods and gets up while Sentinel reluctantly follows Ball Buster out of the room. Chain Reaction turns to Robin and pats his head, then messes up his hair.

CHAIN REACTION
You know what we’re gonna do now?​

​

ROBIN
What?​

​

CHAIN REACTION
Play twister.​

​

ROBIN
Oh, I’m the bomb-diggity at twister!​

​

CHAIN REACTION
I’m sure you are. Wait here while I get the box.​

​

Chain Reaction heads for the door but Matt Murdock gets in her way. He looks worn and beaten, like a zombie. The torn raggedy edges of his leather jacket hang loosely from his severely bruised, forgotten body. He stares at Chain Reaction through his red sunglasses. He speaks and sounds like he just ventured through the Sahara.

MATT
Where’s Michael?​

​

CHAIN REACTION
Uh…he’s in the other room talking to Sentinel. Why, do you want me to go get him?​

​

MATT
No, I can get him myself.​

​

Matt slips by Chain Reaction and walks towards the next room, he sees Robin.

​

MATT​

Hey, Robin.​

​

Matt walks past Robin and goes into the next room. Chain Reaction looks down at Robin, who is watching Matt leave closely.

ROBIN
That man scares me.​

​

CHAIN REACTION
Same here.​

​

CUT TO: THE BLUE ROOM – DAY
Ball Buster drags the giant half man/half machine into the room, pushing him against the wall.

SENTINEL_08​

What is this, Ball Buster?​

​

BALL BUSTER
What have you been doing to Robin? Telling him, doing with him, that kind of thing?​

​

SENTINEL_08​

Why? What is this some kind of Big Brother thing or something?​

​

BALL BUSTER
Hippie Hunter told me someone was trying to do harm to Robin. I think it’s you.​

​

Sentinel_08 looks at Ball Buster, disgusted.

SENTINEL_08​

Is that what this is about? Jesus, Ball Buster, you really are a piece of work.​

​

BALL BUSTER
Just tell me the truth.​

​

SENTINEL_08​

Which of us do you think is a worse example on the kid? The one that plays games with him and makes food for him, or the one that tells him dirty jokes and the secrets of sex?​

​

BALL BUSTER
Robin is a good kid, Sentinel. And I might not be the best ****ing example for him, but he chose me first!​

​

SENTINEL_08​

Christ man, I’m just trying to help raise him. It’s not like he’s your kid anyway.​

​

BALL BUSTER
Listen, you f**ktard, I—​

​

Matt Murdock without warning jumps in front of Ball Buster and brutally tosses him to the floor, his crutches flying across the room. Matt hops onto Ball Buster’s chest and starts smashing Buster’s face relentlessly. Ball Buster is struggling and squirming, still unaware of what’s going on trying to get free while the punches keep coming. When it seems like it’ll never end, Murdock stops and pulls Ball Buster up so they’re face to face. Ball Buster’s face is now a bloody mess and he’s gasping for air.

MATT MURDOCK
When were you gonna tell me, huh? Real ****ing great friend you are, giving me your left over girlfriends.​

​

BALL BUSTER​

(Coughing up blood)
I don’t have time for your craziness, Matt.​

​

MATT MURDOCK
I felt sorry for you, cockweed. I felt like a real a**hole after I almost killed you with that sawed off. Now I realize I should have pulled the trigger.​

​

BALL BUSTER
The only cockweed I see here is the one on top of me!​

​

It is then when Matt realizes something. He looks down at Ball Buster’s now bruised, f**ked-up face and his own bloody hands.

MATT MURDOCK
You don’t even remember, do you?​

​

Matt gets up and looks over at Sentinel awkwardly. Ball Buster breathes heavily, and spits blood. Then Matt Murdock looks over and sees Chain Reaction standing there pissed, with a frightened Robin standing behind her.

MATT MURDOCK
God damn it.​

​

Chain Reaction punches Matt in the face with a swift and hard uppercut. He falls to the ground unconscious.
She turns to Sentinel_08, who is standing there shocked, and she motions to Ball Buster who is on the ground beaten.

CHAIN REACTION
Could you help me get him up?​

​

SENTINEL_08​

What…yeah, of course.​

​

Chain Reaction grabs Ball Buster’s left shoulder and Sentinel grabs his right. They help him up to his feet, and carry him back to the other room. She sits him down.

CHAIN REACTION
Are you okay?​

​

Ball Buster looks at her and laughs, then spits out more blood.

​

BALL BUSTER
No. No I’m not.​

​

Chain Reaction smirks, realizing how stupid the question was; although it was out of courtesy more than ignorance.

​

CHAIN REACTION
You need to stop getting into fights.​

​

BALL BUSTER​

Yeah. That would be great.​

​

INT. OFFICE ROOM – DAY
Chain Reaction sits in her office. Her feet lay comfortably on her desk, but she doesn’t seem at all relaxed. A young doctor with fine brown hair walks into the room smelling of bad cologne.

YOUNG DOCTOR
What are you up here for, all alone in your office?​

​

CHAIN REACTION
Because a man just died, and it was my fault.​

​

YOUNG DOCTOR
Your fault? How could it possibly be your fault?​

​

CHAIN REACTION
I wasn’t fast enough. I didn’t follow procedure. I could have saved him.​

​

YOUNG DOCTOR
No, the man was dead the moment he shot himself. There was fatal blood loss; it’s a miracle he survived long enough to make it into the ER. What I want to know is how someone that crazy got into our hospital in the first place. With a weapon nonetheless.​

​

​

CHAIN REACTION​

Our security isn’t that tight, we’re a hospital not a precinct.​

​

YOUNG DOCTOR​

Yeah whatever, did you hear what he said to you? Something about a ferret? Ha-ha, that guy must have been a ***.​

​

Chain Reaction takes her feet off her desk and looks up at the doctor angrily.

CHAIN REACTION
Why are you here?​

​

YOUNG DOCTOR
I was wondering if you would get a cup of coffee with me.​

​

CHAIN REACTION
No.​

​

She turns around and looks out the window.

CHAIN REACTION
I have other plans.​

INT. TRAINING ROOM
Ball Buster sits, holding an ice pack to his forehead. Chain Reaction sits down next to him, rubbing her hands across her knees.

CHAIN REACTION
Matt’s in the other room knocked out cold.​

​

BALL BUSTER
Wonderful, I’m so thrilled. Good punch.​

​

CHAIN REACTION
Thanks. I let Sentinel take care of Robin.​

​

Ball Buster grumbles.

BALL BUSTER
That’s okay, I don’t think we need to worry about him anymore anyway.​

​

CHAIN REACTION​

Why not?​

​

BALL BUSTER
Because I’m pretty sure Hippie Hunter was talking about Matt and not Sentinel. The whole jumping-on-top-of-me-and-trying-to-kill-me-for-a-second-time-thing kind of gave it away.​

​

CHAIN REACTION
Second time?​

​

BALL BUSTER​

Yeah, it’s complicated. We have a real love-hate relationship, me and Matt.​

​

CHAIN REACTION
Not unlike every other relationship in your life?​

​

BALL BUSTER
Did you come here to reprimand me or what?​

​

Chain Reaction laughs and shakes her head.

​

CHAIN REACTION
Matt’s fight with you obviously worsened your condition. I need to watch over you more now. And it’s going to be a while before you can walk without using the crutches.​

​

BALL BUSTER
So, I guess that means you’re stuck here with me.​

​

CHAIN REACTION
Pretty much, yeah.​

​

BALL BUSTER
Sucks to be you then.​

​

Ball Buster turns and smiles at Chain Reaction, and she awkwardly turns away, caught off guard by the polite gesture. Ball Buster sighs.

BALL BUSTER
Maybe I should talk to him.​

​

CHAIN REACTION
Who?​

​

BALL BUSTER​

Matt. He’s obviously going through some personal s**t, and every other time something like this happened we helped each other out.​

​

CHAIN REACTION
I don’t know if that’s such a great idea, Ball Buster.​

​

BALL BUSTER
Eh, it’s okay. We understand each other. Okay, not really. Well, maybe not at all, but I’m still the best chance he’s got—next to Webmistress, anyway.​

​

CHAIN REACTION
I’m concerned about your health. If you get into another fight—​

​

BALL BUSTER
Don’t worry, I’ll be fine. Hey, where are my crutches?​

EXT. PLAYGROUND – DAY
A young white kid wearing bling is picking on a nerdy looking kid with a light saber. The light saber kid starts to cry. The other kid with the blind laughs triumphantly. This is MR. THING.

MR. THING
Boo-ya, take that Obi-f**king Wan Kenobi!​

​

LIGHT SABER KID
I’m Jacen Solo!​

​

MR. THING
***** does it look like I care?​

​

JACEN SOLO​

But I’m a f**king Jedi!​

​

MR. THING
Suck a dick, kid.​

Chain Reaction walks into the playground, closing the fence behind her and walking over to him. Mr. Thing stops what he’s doing when he sees her come up to him.

MR. THING​

Yo, who da f**k are you, b**ch?​

​

CHAIN REACTION
Chain Reaction. I’m a doctor. Can I talk to you privately on this bench over here?​

​

MR. THING
Whateva ho.​

​

Mr. Thing follows Chain Reaction to the bench. They sit down next to each other.

CHAIN REACTION
You may not remember it but you came into my office around a month ago.​

​

MR. THING
I don’ ‘member ****!​

​

CHAIN REACTION
You had bruises all over you body. Said you fell down the stairs.​

​

MR. THING
Yo point is?​

​

CHAIN REACTION
Are you being abused by your parents?​

​

Mr. Thing gets up, shaking his head angrily.

MR. THING
B**ch, I ain’t got time fo this ****.​

​

CHAIN REACTION​

Look, just come with me and we can talk about this.​

​

MR. THING
Hell no you ho!​

​

Mr. Thing runs away, and on his way punches the fat kid in the face again. Chain Reaction sighs, and gets up, taking her stuff with her.

INT. EXALTED’S THRONE ROOM – DAY
Danger Mouse watches Jayna from afar, smiling to himself. Exalted approaches him, and hands him a .45 Magnum. Danger Mouse stares blankly at Exalted, as Exalted himself looks over Danger Mouse’s shoulder at Jayna.

DANGER MOUSE
What the hell is this?​

​

THE EXALTED
DANGER MOUSE LET ME BE FRANK WITH YOU FOR AWHILE. I SEE YOU AND JAYNA TALKING TO EACH OTHER ALL THE TIME. YOU ARE AN EXTREMELY HAPPY COUPLE.​

​

DANGER MOUSE
Uh…thanks, I think.​

​

THE EXALTED
BUT THERE COMES A TIME, AS YOU KNOW, WHERE YOU HAVE TO MAKE DECISIONS FOR YOURSELF. YOU CANNOT LET HER CONTROL YOUR ENTIRE LIFE.​

​

Danger Mouse looks at The Exalted angrily, his hands starting to tremble.

DANGER MOUSE
Why are you telling me this, exactly?​

​

THE EXALTED​

BECAUSE SOON, VERY SOON, YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE TO MAKE A CHOICE.​

​

DANGER MOUSE
What choice?​

​

THE EXALTED
WHO IT IS YOU TRUST.​

​

The Exalted walks away, and Danger Mouse looks at the gun in his hands. He opens the chamber and pours bullets into his hands, then checks that the chambers are empty. He flips the chamber back into the gun, and points the large firearm at Jayna. He pulls the trigger, the hammer clicks as it hits metal and the chamber revolves.

DANGER MOUSE
(Whispering)​

Blam. Blam. Blam.​

​

He stuffs the gun under his robe and walks away, fidgeting with the bullets.

CUT TO: BLUE ROOM – DAY
Ball Buster limps into the room where Matt Murdock sits dumbfounded. Ball Buster lays down his crutches and sits down next to Matt.

BALL BUSTER
Hi, Matt.​

​

MATT MURDOCK
What am I doing here, Michael? I feel like such an a**hole.​

​

BALL BUSTER
Well, if it makes it any better, you kind of are one.​

​

Matt scratches his head.

MATT MURDOCK
I had sex with Webmistress.​

​

BALL BUSTER
Hey! Great for you man! How was it? She wild?​

​

MATT MURDOCK
Then she found out what I tried to do to you, and she kicked me in the balls and said we were over. So what’s my solution? Instead of sorting this mess out I come over here and blame it all on you again. I just…I want her back, Ball Buster.​

​

BALL BUSTER
Well maybe if you just went and talked to her. Said you were sorry, that you want to start over.​

​

MATT MURDOCK
No, we tried that already and I f**ked it up. I don’t think there’s any chance for me anymore.​

​

The two of them sit there for awhile, staring at the floor. Ball Buster sighs.

BALL BUSTER
What did you want with Robin, Matt?​

​

MATT MURDOCK
What?​

​

BALL BUSTER​

Hippie Hunter said you were trying to harm him for some reason.​

​

MATT MURDOCK
Well then, Hippie Hunter lied. I was only trying to kill you.​

​

BALL BUSTER
Are you sure?​

​

MATT MURDOCK
Yeah. I mean, I said I’d whoop him a few times but nothing really serious.​

​

Ball Buster looks around the room confused, searching his mind for an answer. He points at Matt.

BALL BUSTER​

Well, if it wasn’t you, then—​

​

Matt shrugs.

​

MATT MURDOCK
Maybe you should just ask him, Michael. I’m sure he knew who it was and just didn’t tell you. Just go over there and beat it out of him. That’s what I’d do.​

​

Ball Buster nods and gets up on his crutches.

BALL BUSTER
Yeah, you’re right. I should go over there and just ask him. Thanks, Matt.​

​

MATT MURDOCK
What are friends for?​

​

BALL BUSTER​

(Jokingly)​

Refreshing beatings.​

​

Matt Murdock smiles a wide smile while Ball Buster laughs to himself and limps out of the room.

CUT TO: TRAINING ROOM – DAY
Chain Reaction stands staring at the floor when Ball Buster enters the room, carrying himself on his crutches. She looks over at him and her face lights up.

CHAIN REACTION
How’d the chat go?​

​

BALL BUSTER
Great, I need you to do something for me though.​

​

CHAIN REACTION
What?​

​

BALL BUSTER
I need you to grab Robin and make sure Sentinel isn’t watching over him. You can come up with some excuse to get him out of there, and then I want you to keep Robin close to you.​

​

Chain Reaction looks at Ball Buster confused through her spectacles.

CHAIN REACTION
Why?​

​

BALL BUSTER
There’s something I need to do.​

​

CHAIN REACTION
Ball Buster, you’re injured. You can’t go far from here without help.​

​

Ball Buster shakes his head.

BALL BUSTER
I’ll be fine. Just look after Robin.​

And he limps his way out of the room. Chain Reaction bites her lip and walks away.

Yo…I thought bout what you said de otha day.​

​

CHAIN REACTION
You did?​

​

MR. THING
Yeah…you right, you know? My parents do beat on me, like all de time.​

She sighs, and looks down at the boy.

CHAIN REACTION
That’s what I thought…come with me.​

​

INT. CHAIN REACTION’S APARTMENT – NIGHT
Mr. Thing enters her apartment and she follows behind him. She guides him to her large sofa, where he sits down. She runs into her kitchen and gets him water, which she then places on the coffee table in front of him.

CHAIN REACTION
So, why do you think they do it?​

​

MR. THING
I think it’s cause I’m white.​

​

Chain Reaction nearly snorts all of her water out of her nose.

CHAIN REACTION
What?​

​

MR. THING
Actually I don’ think…I know. My dad’s black, my mom’s Asian…they both hate me, specially my fatha.​

​

Chain Reaction looks at the child confused.

CHAIN REACTION
They don’t hate you.​

​

MR. THING
Yeah they do! My dad even said it once—“I hate you, white devil.”​

​

CHAIN REACTION
Listen, there are laws against this. I have money. I can take your family to court; you can go to a foster home and get raised by good parents.​

​

MR. THING
I ain’t goin to no foster home! How many families are gonna want a thug like me anyway? Who’s gonna raise me?​

​

Mr. Thing frown, crossing his arms. Chain Reaction looks down.

CHAIN REACTION
We can get this whole thing sorted out. I’m going to get papers, okay? I’m going to help you with this. But right now, I have to take a shower.​

Chain Reaction gets up and walks up the stairs, leaving Mr. Thing alone on her sofa.

CHAIN REACTION
Ball Buster wants me to watch over Robin for awhile.​

​

Sentinel sighs.

SENTINEL_08​

Are we back to this again?​

​

CHAIN REACTION​

Yeah, I guess we are.​

​

He shakes his head and heads for the door.

SENTINEL_08​

Give Ball Buster my regards.​

Chain Reaction turns around and looks at Robin, who is frowning. She smiles at him.

CHAIN REACTION
How about that game of twister?​

​

CUT TO: ANTI-HIPPIE DEFENSE ROOM – DAY
Hippie Hunter is fixing something when Ball Buster walks into the room, balancing himself on his crutches.

HIPPIE HUNTER
So we meet again…here to ask me about Chain Reaction, your little love that could do no wrong again?​

BALL BUSTER
No, I came here to ask you about Robin. Who is the threat to him?​

​

At this point in time Hippie Hunter cannot help but laugh uncontrollably. He almost goes down on his side as Ball Buster watches him confused.

BALL BUSTER
What’s so goddamned funny?​

​

HIPPIE HUNTER
You…you’re so f**king oblivious, even when she’s looking at him in that way she has.​

​

BALL BUSTER
What the hell are you talking about?​

​

HIPPIE HUNTER
Oh Christ…you still haven’t figured it out have you? I feel like a God in this place.​

​

Ball Buster shakes his head. Hippie Hunter groans deeply.

HIPPPIE HUNTER​

Look, how do I put this…Chain Reaction likes kids.​

​

BALL BUSTER
So?​

​

HIPPIE HUNTER
She likes them likes them.​

​

BALL BUSTER

Chain Reaction stands, naked and drenched, holding the picture of Mr. Thing in her hands as the water comes down hard upon her.

​

HIPPIE HUNTER​

I wanted you to figure it out on your own. This is fun.​

​

BALL BUSTER
You wanted me to—​

​

Ball Buster grimaces as a sudden pain in his knees takes over. Hippie Hunter tries to give him a hand but Ball Buster shoves him off.

BALL BUSTER
You really are a piece of work, you know that? Robin is the only decent human being in this place. And you just let her touch him.​

​

HIPPIE HUNTER
She’s done nothing to him yet. I know, I’ve been watching. Besides, she’s hot.​

Ball Buster shakes his head, gritting his teeth.

BALL BUSTER
You don’t understand and that isn’t the god damn point! I so trusted her that I was convinced the person trying to harm Robin was Sentinel, and I told her to watch him.​

​

HIPPIE HUNTER
Jesus! Look, we can go back there. I can help you.​

​

BALL BUSTER​

You’ve done enough.​

​

Ball Buster heads for the door but Hippie Hunter grabs him by the arm.

HIPPIE HUNTER
You’re in no condition…​

​

BALL BUSTER
Don’t tell me what condition I’m in!​

​

He shoves Hippie Hunter out of the way, making him fall into his own machinery. Then Ball Buster turns around and limps out of the room as fast as he was capable.

HIPPIE HUNTER​

Well this should be interesting.​

​

Hippie Hunter brushes himself off and goes back to watching the monitors.

CUT TO: WHITE ROOM – DAY
Chain Reaction unfolds a big white sheet of paper. Robin jumps up and claps his hands.

ROBIN
Twister!​

​

CUT TO: HALLWAY – DAY
Ball Buster runs through the hallways, propelling himself with his crutches. Sweat pours down his body in buckets and he has a look of unbreakable determination, shutting out immense pain.

INT. WHITE ROOM
Chain Reaction kisses Robin on the cheek, and then spins the dial: Right Foot Blue. She smiles at him, and engages in her position.

INT. HALLWAY
Ball Buster shoves the crutches into the floor a little too hard, pummeling them into the concrete. One snaps and Ball Buster screams in anger as he falls over and lands on his knees, the impact cracking his knees, he now screams in pain. The broken crutch lands in front of his face, the broken one behind him. Now his whole body gives up and he falls down face first, powerless and whimpering.

INT. WHITE ROOM
Now Robin is moving, stuck underneath Chain Reaction. She laughs as he tries to keep himself from falling over.

INT. HALLWAY
Ball Buster reaches for the crutch in front of his face, but it is too far away for him to grab it. He scoots forward on the floor and manages to grab it, moaning in pain. He balances himself on one crutch, and tries to get the other one with his foot. Then decides to head off with only one, balancing himself on the wall running hopping frantically.






INT. WHITE ROOM
Robin is losing his grip on the board and now, so is she. Both of them are tangled up in a ludicrous way. The kid starts laughing now too. Either one will fall at any moment. Chain Reaction falls and brings Robin down with her, both laughing hysterically, entangled in each other. Robin takes his leg out from under hers and slides over. She smiles, looking at him. Then that smile turns to a look of fear as Ball Buster stands over the two of them, bruised and beaten, a nightmarish figure.

CHAIN REACTION
What—​

​

Robin gasps as Ball Buster grabs Chain Reaction by the throat and shoves her into the wall, adrenaline pumping through his veins, now disconnected from all the pain the only thing that would stop him would be body failure.

ROBIN
Ball Buster, what are you doing? She’s not evil anymo—​

​

BALL BUSTER
Go, Robin.​

​

ROBIN
But—​

​

BALL BUSTER
Now!​

​

Robin runs out of the room scared. Ball Buster turns around to face Chain Reaction. She grabs his arm and kicks Ball Buster’s leg bringing him down to his knees.

CHAIN REACTION
You think I’m frightened of you? Look at you. Even when you could walk normally you were weak. You’ve always been a pathetic blob that relied on others for protection. You think you can stop me? Every day, every hour you keep Robin away from me the pain in your side will get worse. Until it no longer becomes just a pain in the side, but a reoccurring nightmare and you have to come back to me begging or you’ll die.​

​

VOICE​

Hey, pedo-woman!​

​

Chain Reaction pushes Ball Buster to the floor. Matt Murdock walks into the room, still looking like ****. He grins at her.

MATT MURDOCK
Payback’s a *****, isn’t it?​

​

He swings a pipe and hits her square in the face, she falls to the floor unconscious. Ball Buster breathes a sigh of relief, and Matt helps him up.

BALL BUSTER
I never thought I’d be so happy to see you.​

​

MATT MURDOCK
Don’t thank only me. I never would have come here if your pal Hippie Hunter hadn’t warned me of the situation.​

​

Ball Buster snorts.

BALL BUSTER
Gee, I’m glad I have such great pals.​

​

Matt looks down at Chain Reaction. Her glasses lay broken next to her on the floor.

MATT MURDOCK
What should we do with her?​

​

BALL BUSTER
Just get her as far away from here as possible.​

​

MATT MURDOCK
You know, it’s funny. You think you know everything about a person, and then they surprise you.​

​

BALL BUSTER
Oh god, shut the f**k up Matt.​

​

MATT MURDOCK
What?​

​

BALL BUSTER​

That’s so f**king cliché.​

​

Matt shrugs, and sits down against the wall next to Ball Buster.

MATT MURDOCK
Don’t worry about your wound. Sentinel can help you until you recover.​

​

BALL BUSTER
I thought he only made tofu.​

​

MATT MURDOCK
He is a man of many talents.​

​

BALL BUSTER
Actually, Matt, I think he’s a machine.​

​

MATT MURDOCK
Right, well, I’m off then. Maybe you should talk to Robin; kids usually have a hard time dealing with this stuff.​

​

Ball Buster nods and Matt leaves the room. Robin slowly walks back inside, a frown on his face. Ball Buster smiles at him.

BALL BUSTER
Twister?​

FADE TO BLACK
CUT TO:

Shot of a closed eye. The eyelid opens and a pupil dilates.

CUT TO:
INT. BATHROOM – CONTINUOUS
The bathroom is ruined from when Matt and Spork last fought. Inside one of the stalls Chain Reaction wakes up and looks around. She opens the door of the stall, not fully knowing where she was but merely wanting to see if she were alone. Satisfied with the solitude, she goes back into the stall and begins to cry.
