Shade - Agent Of Spite

CUT TO: SOUTHWEST ENTERTAINMENT DISTRICT

INT. LIVING ROOM - NIGHT

TORIA WALKS INTO THE LIVING ROOM WHILE DRAY SITS ON THE COUCH WATCHING TV.

[Toria]

So, have you heard about this Leatherneck guy?

[Dray]

Yeah, it's practically my job to know at this point.

[Toria]

So, you're slacking?

[Dray]

No, I'm not slacking. Circumstances haven't been in my favor, that's all. And what about the great BRPD? Why haven't you guys caught him yet?

[Toria]

I guess for right now we're in the same boat. However, there were some people ready to give up information on Shade and this female duo. What's going on there?

[Dray]

Nothing is going on.

[Toria]

Are you guys dating or messing around or—?

[Dray]

Geez, your nose needs an oxygen tank because it's drowning in my business.

[Toria]

Oh come on you can tell me. How much charm are you pouring on here? Have you kissed her? You haven't have you?

[Dray]

(Defensively)

Now, why would you want to know something like that? I don't care how much you and Casey are making out and I don't want to know.

TORIA GIVES DRAY AN INCREDULOUS LOOK AND DRAY LOOKS AT THE TV.

[Dray]

Look, I just don't want to talk about it, okay? I think I'm gonna head out.

[Toria]

Okay, I'll be here. Alone. Wondering about why my brother has to be such a sad sap. I mean we're just talking about how you feel about this girl. You can't even do that?

DRAY GETS UP FROM THE COUCH, POWERS INTO HIS SHADOW SUIT, AND OPENS A PORTAL.

[Shade]

It's not important. That's why.

[Toria]

If you say so. See you when you get back.

[Shade]

Yeah, I'll see you.

WALKS THROUGH THE PORTAL ARRIVING ON A ROOFTOP DOWNTOWN.

[Shade]

(Thinking)

Okay, now all I have to do is find Prytania before they find Leatherneck. Hopefully, they don't end up killing each other.
