High & Spicy Guardian/Episode 14 transcript

-Crossfade to the Triumvirates-

The Triumvirates are angry. One of them is walking around the room. He goes and calls: "Michael, come there!" Michael walks in, like a soldier.

That one Triumvirate: "Who was behind it?"

Michael: "Behind what?"

That one Triumvirate: "Behind the request of killing Lavender!"

Michael is silent. "Should I look?" asks.

That one Triumvirate: "Yes!" shouts in angry tone

Michael with his terrasphere, opens a portal. Then he stops and stays silent.

That one Triumvirate: "Alright, we will do on our own now." gets a pause "If I need you, again, I call." says with a more calm voice. Michael leaves.

-Crossfade to Wealthy blood fighters-

Acheron: "So, what are we supposed to do now?"  asks in a concerned tone.

Acheron: "We shouldn't be just watching every move they do, let's live our lives, jeez, nothing bad happened anyway."

Mandrake, thinking: "...So, again, we do our own things and leave Zia spying on them."

Mandrake: "Alright, we can go, but we need to prepare, you know?" gets a pause "So, one of us, will be watching the portal in CASE something bad happens. If that happens, you transform back into human and call us."

Mandrake smirks. Zia was looking down. He looks at Zia. Zia looked at him and then look away.

Mandrake: "Let's start with the one who helps us the least."

     Mandrake, thinking: "But then, the least helpful member is the least responsible one and that means,     I would give a huge responsibility to an unexperienced one." gets a pause "Even though, who would want to sit and watch a dumb portal? My fellas don't deserve that." continues thinking.

Mandrake: "So I pick you, Zia"

    Mandrake, thinking: "Fun thing how I even remember her name."

Zia doesn't answer.

Mandrake asks: "So, where do we want to be?"

Olive: "Maybe, we could talk about some stuff."

Acheron: "Alright, about what?"

Olive: "No idea XD" says in a joking manner

Anakin thinks for a while. "I just that, isn't that funny how I'm the only one using old magic?"

They are all quiet.

Acheron: "You know, I just wondered, why is this called a country? If this is a country, shouldn't there be some towns or cities?"

Olive looks weirdly at him. "This does have cities and towns, in fact, we're in a city right now." says

Acheron, silently: "Oh ,really? Wow."

They are all silent.

Mandrake: "Who was your favourite victim?"

The rest of the team is confused.

Acheron: "The last victim made me realize how much I appreciate doing this because, I find these ways to be very pleasuring, knowing all of these have been used before and more than generic energy beams. All of these, fancy, saws, crocodile shears, that one with horse, one with neck I don't remember. There's just more than that. You think we could use all of these?" says with a enthuziastic tone of voice.

Olive thinks for a while. Then says: "You know, you just gave me an idea. I have the guts to have a classroom specifically for ways to torture! You know how... fascinating it was! And, if we had to think of some project, we would describe the objects amd... and we could add pictures too. Or we could make our own custom spells or something!" says with enthuziasm, gets a pause "You think we could...one day, together?" asks Olive while looking at Mandrake.

Mandrake slightly smiles. "If they don't catch us, we will have a bright future." says Mandrake dreamingly, while widely smiling.

They all smile and hug eachother.

-Crossfade to the Triumvirates-

"Stupid, stupid Michael! How he has even the guts to even say that, how Mandrake has the guts to do that. Unfaithful, little brat. Doesn't even respect those higher than him!" says that one Triumvirate, angrily and also dissapointed.

-Crossfade to Zia-

Zia is shaking, transformed as a cat. She transforms back to human and thinks of where the hell is the object to use magic. "There's a bag for the rituals." thinks. She gets the candles and adds fire on them. She gets a carpet hidden somewhere and then the magic starts working. "Uhh, get me to, Mandrake and his teammates." says doubtfully. It teleports her to the Wealthy blood fighters.

Zia, talking to them: "Guys, you're in danger!" says fastly and scared, panicked

Some gaps (Olive, Mandrake, Anakin), some less ("Ironic" - Acheron).

Olive: "What, we should hide???" asks, very nervously

Acheron: "For nothing!"

Anakin: "What? But, they can see us? See? Proven?" says doubtfully/nervously/angrily.

Mandrake: "That means we will fight? But, againts the whole Triumvirates and the allies?" asks, gets a pause: "You know, maybe they're not actually angry."

Acheron rolls eyes.

Anakin: "We don't need to fight, maybe we can ask that lady with poisons and do our regular technique."

Olive: "Wait but, if they see us, that means that they can hear us now too!"

Mandrake touches his forehead. He looks desperate. "Let's just... do the things, without dealing with the portals/watching etc." gets a pause: "Actually, we still need someone to protect us." says. Mandrake slightly laughs. "Haha, Zia, you!" says.

Zia: "Alright but, I don't know the magic stuff much."

Olive: "If everything ends up fine, you can later take lessons, somewhere."

Zia: "Yes but, I barely teleported, where even is terrasphere, how does the ritual work, how did it teleport me there, should I shout my spells? How do I make a ritual right, if I have candles and carpets, that is enough to make a ritual?" with a nervous voice

Mandrake looks at Zia. "It's pretty much written in the books but, yes, I think you need the candles and stuff, with new magic you just need to think about it." says Mandrake

\*Crickets sound effect\*

-Time skip-

The Wealthy blood fighters came visit Redbud. (The Wealthy blood fighters teleported through the terrasphere and then they were close to Redbud's doors, they opened...)

All w.b.f: "Hey ma'am, it's us." they wave to her and Redbud smiles at them.

Redbud: "Oh hey, it's you, Mandrake and the others, right?"

Mandrake nods.

Redbud: "How are you doing?"

Mandrake: "Oh well. We get new requests and quite often."

Olive: "Actually, today we got another one too."

Acheron: "We came here to borrow your poisons, they are the ones we will use on our mission."

Redbud is silently looking at them. "Alright. That's okay." says. She hands the bootles of the potions into Acheron's hands. "Also, nice seeing you face to face." says.

Wealthy blood fighters are looking at her but don't respond to her. She waves them as goodbye and they leave.

Redbud: "Wait! Before you leave, you want some... soup?" asks

Olive slightly laughs and then leaves just as the rest of the teammates.

-Time skip-

The Wealthy blood fighters are at Mandrake's place. Mandrake, serious: "Alright, so we poison the three Triumvirates. Well, who exactly will? Maybe..." Mandrake's speaking stops and instead now turns into thinking: "...Anakin, he was there putting the sleeping spell into the Triumvirates before."

Olive: "Well, maybe we could actually just talk it out."

Anakin nods. Mandrake is silent. Zia is silently standing here too, next to Mandrake. Mandrake is standing here but then he turns to the left and sees Zia next to him.

Mandrake: "Hey, why are you there? Why aren't you watching the portal?" asks, rather in negative tone

Zia, silently: "I didn't know it's required, all from the time but, alright then." says with a slightly sad tone.

Olive, talking to Mandrake: "She's done this like for, two times." says, in a understandingless tone.

-Time skip-

Mandrake and the rest of the team, including Zia, are hiding in the Triumvirate place. Mandrake silently sends Anakin to go to the main three Triumvirates. He is walking through the halls and finds the place, goes to them.

Anakin: "Hello, I come here in peace." says and greets the Triumvirates.

His teammates are watching him from far. The guards get Anakin. They are holding Anakin's hands and knees. Anakin is relaxed, though.

That one Triumvirate: "Why did you come here by yourself? Why did you have the guts to show up after that?"

Anakin: "Because we're allies, I don't fear allies. I just came here to say that we do things we have to, we are told to, by your own mates, we don't even question it, we're faithful.

That one Triumvirate: "No, you killed a member who is superior than you or your friends. You can backstab anyone."

Anakin: "What, no! We just listened to what our ally, someone who tells the requests, higher than me, I listened to him. We do love doing them and we listen to you, we're in good terms, you hired my friends. We still want to work for you, we're not there to backstab you. I just wanted to go see by myself if it's all fine."

Other Triumvirate: "Don't think you will talk out of it. You will be harmed anyway."

That one Triumvirate: "You will be killed the same way you killed Lavender."

Other Triumvirate: "Wait, what!? Killing? Burning? Why like that?"

The end of episode.
