INT. JUNCTION BRIDGE COFFEE SHOP - EARLY AFTERNOON
DRAY SITS ACROSS FROM TORIA AT A SMALL TABLE WHILE THEY BOTH SIP ON COFFEE.
[Toria]
So... gargoyles?
[Dray]
Well, actually, gargoyle. There's just the one.
[Toria]
How is this even possible? Why here of all places?
[Dray]
Your guess is as good as mine. I've got nothing to do with that thing.
DRAY AND TORIA TAKE SIPS OF THEIR COFFEE AT THE SAME TIME.
[Toria]
Do you know what it wants?
[Dray]
So, apparently, he wants to kill all humans because he used to help protect the some English kingdom from the Vikings but then the English people got two-faced about what the gargoyles looked like, as you do when you don't need a monster that saved your skin, and got a wizard's help to kill all the gargoyles and they saved him as a trophy.
[Toria]
Great.
[Dray]
Yep. So now I'm looking for a gargoyle on top of everything else that's going on. The bastard's tough too.
[Toria]
Well, he's not technically human so you don't really have to worry about pulling your punches.
[Shade]
I guess not.
TORIA AND DRAY TAKE SIPS OF THEIR COFFEE AT THE SAME TIME.

INT. EBONY AND ABONY'S HOUSE - MORNING
EBONY TRAINS IN HER BACKYARD BY DOING FLIPS, PUSHUPS, AND SHADOWBOXING. AS EBONY TAKES A BREAK HER PHONE BEGINS TO RING AND SHE ANSWERS IT.
[Ebony]
Talk to me.
[Police Officer]
(Over the phone)
Hey, I just wanted to give you a heads up. From what I've heard Leatherneck is wanted back in Virginia and is going to be transported there in about a week.
[Ebony]
That sounds like music to my ears.
[Police Officer]
(Over the phone)
Mine too. I hope you give that bastard what he deserves.
[Ebony]
He's gonna get that and more. I trust that you were able to use the info we gave you?
[Police Officer]
(Over the phone)
Yeah, we were able to ambush the drug peddlers we've been looking for. They didn't stand a chance.
[Ebony]
Good. Keep me in the loop. If anything changes, I wanna know.
[Police Officer]
(Over the phone)
You've got it.
EBONY HANGS UP THE PHONE AND THEN LOOKS BACK TOWARDS THE HOUSE AS ABONY WALKS OUTSIDE.
