Here's the next couple scripts.
[spoiler=
The Bickering Scene 1 It Had To Be Done]TIRILIA: These shadows... there are so many! There must be an easier way to do this... let's see... fire creates light, which leaves shadows... darkness
is shadow... the only element left is... water. Or... ice?
TIRILIA: That's it! Thin ice casts no shadow; the sun simply shines through it! It might not work, but it is certainly worth trying... Aeilie!
((Aeilie is summon'd and does its whole ice blast thing))
TIRILIA: It appears to be working! Thank you, Aeilie. Now... to find the others.
((Scene changes to Salah, Scar and Keng))
SALAH: Huh? What happened?SCAR: We must have got them all! You can outlast forumers, but you can't outlast time!
KENG: So, uh, should we find out where everyone went?
SALAH: Uh, yeah, probably.SCAR: Yeah, c'mon, let's go!
((Salah, Scar and Keng run off. Scene changes to Omni))
OMNI: Phew! The shadows are all gone... Scar and Salah? Maybe I should follow them...((scene changes to the confrontation with Shino))
KIT: Sir Shino, what is the meaning of this?
SHINO: Sir Kit. I see you have one of your tarot cards out. Perhaps you want to stop me?KIT: I will if I have to.
((Ikkin comes running in))
IKKIN: Shino! What's going on?
KIT: Glad you're here, Lady Ikkin. Feel free to join in.
IKKIN: I'd be glad to. Shino's got a lot of explaining to do!
((Ikkin wind-blasts Shino to a wall))
SHINO: Oof!IKKIN: Start talking, Shino. What are you planning?
((Fj0rd comes running in))
FJ0RD: Ikkin, be careful!
IKKIN: Tell me!
SHINO: ...I think I'd rather not.((Shino disappears suddenly))
IKKIN: Huh?
FJ0RD: I should have warned you... Shino can make himself completely undetectable!
IKKIN: He
what?
((Shino thwaps Ikkin upside the head, knocking her to the ground))
IKKIN: Ah!
((scene changes to Pyro and Tamia arriving at Tabloid Town on Dusk))
TAMIA: There! There's Tabloid Town!PYRO: Thank you, Dusk. Lady Zari is somewhere around, if you'd like to find her...
((Tamia and Pyro start walking around))
TAMIA: It's... quiet. Too quiet.PYRO: Yeah... where is Lord Shino? We must find him.
TAMIA: Indeed. Come on, let's go.((scene changes back to the confrontation))
FJ0RD: Come off it, Shino. You say you're a knight... you say you're a ninja... but really, do you have the honor of either one? Or are you a coward, hiding behind your tricks and your magic?
KIT: I'm with Fj0rd on this one. Whose side are you on, Shino?
((Zaha comes running up))
ZAHA: Yes. Tell us, Shinobi.((Ikkin wakes up and finds that Shino's attack caused her to bleed))
IKKIN: ...Alright, Shino. This is going too far. I don't know who's side you're on, or what your intentions are, but this has to end. Sev! Phoenix fire, now!
KIT: Ikkin, no!
((Sev flames Shino))
KIT: No... no no no! He can't be dead!
((Shadow appears from behind Ikkin, Tirilia walks in))
SHADOW: Yes, Kit. He is dead. Shino is dead.
TIRILIA: Lord Shino... is dead?
KIT: No... this is wrong! He shouldn't have been killed! We still need to question him! We need to figure out WHY he did all this! But we can't do ANYTHING now! Now that he's... he's...
((Kat walks in))
KAT: SHINO!! What did you do? What did you guys do?KIT: Lady Kat...
KAT: No... I mean, he can't be dead! I... I...FJ0RD: I am sorry. It had to be done.
((Pyro and Tamia walk in))
PYRO: Shino? No, Shino!... what have you done?!IKKIN: You don't understand... Shinobi attacked us all. He's a traitor.
SHADOW: And he deserved what he got, too. Summoning
shadows to do his dirty work... it never goes without consequence. I had to fight to save mortals from my own
kin. Had I the ability, I would spit on his corpse, without regret.
TAMIA: Maybe... maybe he had a reason for what he did.SHADOW: No reason that he can give will ever be reason enough. You knights depend so much on fairness... but evil works according to no one's rules. Shinobi was evil through and through... you were fools to have trusted him.
TIRILIA: You speak so closely of evil... I have to wonder about
you. Your allegiance lies with no guild; how can you mock us for being loyal to ours?
((Shadow pulls out two daggers))
SHADOW: You would do well to think before you speak, knight. Or rather, you ought to stay silent completely!
((Shadow throws her daggers, Tirilia dodges))
TAMIA: No! Lady Tirilia!SHADOW: Your leader has done us all wrong. And it seems his followers are no better.
TIRILIA: Shinobi was never our leader, mind you. We
were loyal to him, but he has done us wrong, just like the rest of you. The knights are not at fault for this!
((Shadow draws another dagger and shadows over to Tirilia))
SHADOW: And why should I believe you? I may not be able to kill, but that does not mean I cannot draw blood. Do you know what poison lies on this dagger, Tirilia? Would you like to find out?
PYRO: Shinobi may have been a traitor... but
you, Shadow, are an enemy!
((Pyro's sword flames up and Pyro charges at Shadow. Shadow blocks Pyro's sword with her dagger. Scar, Salah, Keng and Omni come casually waltzing in XD))
SCAR: Hey guys, what's that smell? Did Sev get into a fight? ...Oh. Um, I think I... left my pocketwatch running...
((Scar sneaks off awkwardly))
SALAH: Wait, Scar...KENG: Um, I think we came at a bad time...
SALAH: Yeah, Shadow and the knights don't seem to be getting along very-- oh my.KENG: What? What's... oh. Ouch.
((Salah points to Shino's dead body))
SALAH: Uh... who's... that?FJ0RD: That... was Shinobi.
SALAH: ...Oh. So... he's dead now?KENG: That would explain why the knights are so angry...
FJ0RD: Exactly.
((Shadow manages to knock Pyro back))
SHADOW: I am bound to my oaths by a curse, but you, mortal, are bound by nothing but your weak human will. Your resolve is sooner doubted than mine!
((Shadow charges at Pyro with her dagger))
PYRO: You will find that the will of a knight is not so easily broken as you think... nor is the sword!
((Pyro's blade blazes as she swings. Shadow winces at the light of the flame))
SHADOW: Ngh!
IKKIN: Why are you knights fighting us? Perhaps you know something we don't? Something that they 'forgot' to mention to those with allegiances elsewhere? No wonder Shino had you all stay behind... he was trying to wipe out everyone else! You make me sick!
IKKIN: Sev! Warn all the pirates, ninjas and mages who aren't here yet. If the knights want to kill us all, we might as well make it a fight![/spoiler]
[spoiler=
The Bickering Scene 2 The War Begins]((Sev poofs off))
KIT: That is IT. I have had
enough of your baseless accusations!
((Bennu poofs after Sev, Nyia's tendrils spread throughout the area))
IKKIN: Whoa!
((scene changes to the Ninja HQ. PFA (that's me whoo) throws her kunai at a target))
PFA: Drat, I still can't quite hit the center...((PFA goes to grab the kunai, when she hears Sev's voice from the other room))
PFA: Sev...? What would he be doing here?((PFA goes to check it out. Scene changes to Wolf at Castle Kestrel. Wolf finds a note))
WOLF: Hmm? What's this?
((The note reads: "Me and Lady Pyro are going Tabloid Town to help Lord Shinobi and Lady Tirilia with whatever dangers are there. --Lady Tamia"))
WOLF: What? Tabloid Town...?
SHINO: Hello, King Wolf.((Wolf turns around and sees Shino behind him))
WOLF: Shinobi!
SHINO: I hope I haven't kept you waiting too long, my dear friend.((Shino grabs Wolf by the shoulders and prepares to grab him by the neck. Shade comes running into the room))
SHADE: Your Majesty! Watch out!
SHINO: What? The Bronze Knight?WOLF: Lady Shade!
SHADE: Hiyaaaa!
((Shade charges at Shino, Shino dodges. Scene changes to Sev telling the ninja about the war))
SEV: ...So you guys need to get to Tabloid Town as soon as you can! Or else--
((Bennu appears behind Sev))
SEV: What th-- oh, shoot...
((Sev poofs to Castle Kestrel, Bennu follows))
SEV: What? Shino?
((Bennu screeches and charges after Sev))
SEV: Aah!
((Sev and Bennu fight some more... with no dialogue. >_> Except maybe some phoenix screeches. ANYWAY, scene changes to people slashing at tendrils))
KAT: What? I sense... something's happening at Castle Kestrel... perhaps I should check it out...((Kat poofs off in a burst of purple flame))
IKKIN: I have had enough of this. Explain what's going on!
KIT: I think
we're the ones who need an explanation! None of us asked for this fight, Ikkin. None of us knew what would happen. But you cannot accuse us anymore. We're supposed to be on the same side!
IKKIN: If so, then why did you send your phoenix to attack Sev?
KIT: Why did you send Sev to call the others? We really don't need a full-scale fight!
IKKIN: As a precaution! I thought if more shadows were to come, we'd need more people! There was
no reason for you to have your bird try to kill Sev!
((Ikkin charges at Kit with her sword, Kit blocks))
KIT: Neither was there any reason for you to have Sev to kill Shino!
((Kit pushes Ikkin back))
IKKIN: I thought it would be better that one enemy die than many of my friends!
KIT: But Shino was a fellow knight! He was a friend!
IKKIN: Yes, he
WAS a friend. Until he turned traitor!
((Ikkin shoots a blast of fire at Kit, one of Nyia's tendrils blocks it))
KIT: None of us know why he did what he did. And now we never can, because he's
dead!
((Nyia attacks with tendrils some more. Ikkin begins slashing at tendrils. Scene changes to Kat appearing at the Shino and Wolf fight))
KAT: What? Shino?!
SHADE: What's with you, Shino? And why are you attacking the king?
KAT: What's going on? Why is Shino here?
SHINO: Foolish girl. What you thought was me, who was killed in Tabloid Town... that was nothing more than a shadow, which looked like me.
KAT: What?
SHINO: Clever, isn't it? All that mourning was over a simple shadow...
KAT: Why, Shino? Why did you turn traitor?WOLF: No... Sir Shinobi would never do this.
KAT: Please! If you tell us, we won't have to hurt you!
SHINO: You don't realize what's happened...what's happening right now!((Shino knocks Wolf and Shade back))
SHADE: Ack!
KAT: Majesty! Shade!
SHINO: My power is greater than it's ever been! With it, I shall bring peace to this castle!WOLF: Wha... what?
((Shino uses dark magic to make a black spear))
SHINO: Taste my new weapon! The Wraith of Shadows!((Shino stabs at Wolf and Shade with spear. Scene changes to Scar near the tendril-slashing scene))
SCAR: Gosh, they're really at each other... this has to stop before someone gets hurt!
((Scar warps back to Mage Manor and goes to the magical telegraph))
SCAR: Everyone! We need to stop fighting! Come back to Mage Manor!
((scene changes to show Shadow hearing the message))
SHADOW: He's right. Let's get out of here!
((Shadow hops over to Ikkin and takes her back to the manor))
IKKIN: What? Hey! Wha--
((Shadow does same for the other mages. Scene changes to them back at the manor))
IKKIN: What did you do that for? He tried to kill Sev! I can't let him get away with that!
SHADOW: Ikkin! Calm down.
IKKIN: But... I...
((Ikkin falls to her knees))
IKKIN: No... what have I done? What went wrong? Shino... Kit... Tirilia... and Sev's still in trouble... this is all Shino's fault!
SALAH: ...what happened?IKKIN: I can't quite... remember everything... Shino attacked... I went after him... had Sev attack him... things happened... I sent Sev off to warn everyone... Kit sicced one of his monsters on him... we fought... and now...
IKKIN: ...oh no, Keng and Fj0rd! They're still fighting Kit's monster! ...Does anyone mind if I take them here for the time being?
SCAR: I wouldn't mind having them here...
SALAH: Fine with me, I guess.IKKIN: Alright, thanks...
((scene changes to Keng and Fj0rd slashing at tendrils))
KENG: Huh? Go to Mage Manor?
FJ0RD: What?
KENG: Uh... sure, I'll come.
((Keng poofs off))
FJ0RD: I suppose I can go...
((Fj0rd poofs off))
PYRO: Sir Kit... please, call off your attack... they're gone now.
((Nyia and Kit start to calm down))
KIT: Take your leave, Nyia. You will get your seven lives by daybreak.
((Nyia nods and leaves))
ZAHA: Kit! Pyro! Tamia! Tirilia!((Zaha comes in, riding on Dusk))
TAMIA: Zaha? And Dusk!DUSK: Doth thou need quick transport? Thou look tired.
ZAHA: Zari's already on her way to the castle. We'll meet her there.KIT: You can take them, but I left my steed at the gates... I'd rather not leave him there...
DUSK: I understand. Go on.
((Kit starts to leave))
ZAHA: Now, being a cat, if one of you will carry me, Dusk can make it to the castle in... hmm... five minutes?((Pyro puts away her sword))
PYRO: I'll carry you, Zaha. Come on, Tamia, Tirilia.[/spoiler]
