Please take into account that this is the rough, rough draft. There are many mistakes, and a few bits are missing or don't quite make sense.
Kaleb’s Death- Somewhere in the middle, probably around chapter 9 or 10
“We need water.” I said to everyone that night at the usual meeting around the fire, “We have enough for about two or maybe three more days if we stretch it.. So, tomorrow I need a few people to go with me to find some.”
The nine, well eight of them exchanged glances, Suzanna was painting her nails and not paying any attention, still glowering about our little spat earlier.
“Caroline obviously can’t come.” I said, and I didn’t want to take Vicky or Daley, both of them being still somewhat unstable. Nathan stuck to Daley like glue, leaving him out. That left Ink, Craig, Kaleb, and Suzanna.
“I’ll go.” Ink raised her hand. No real surprise there.
“I told Jared I would help him tomorrow.” Craig informed me. I nodded to show that that was an expectable excuse.
That left Kaleb and Suzanna.
“You know there’s really no reason for you to go. The resque planes will be here soon.” Suzanna said without looking up from her hands
I gritted my teeth as she continued, “It will only make it harder for them to find you when they come. I’m certainly not going.”
It took most of the patience I had to say in an even voice, “Nobody asked you to go Suzanna.” It took the rest of my patience not to say that she could try waiting a few more days for the planes and then see if getting water was so pointless then.
“Well who else is there?” She put in, “None of you kids can possibly handle it.”
“I’ll go.” Kaleb interrupted, throwing a glance at her that clearly read, ‘Please shut up’
“Well fine. Someone needs to stay here and make sure things run smoothly anway.” Suzanna said haughtily.
I ignored the last comment, “You sure Kaleb? We might be gone for more than a day.”
He glanced again at Suzanna, “Definitely.”
“Okay. We’ll head out after breakfast.”
The next morning the three of us headed out, it was agreed that we would walk westward along the shore.
At first we didn’t really talk much, just walked along the beach, but then the beach ran out. It turned into grass and the grass began to go uphill. We agreed to continue on, “So, Kaleb. How did you end up going on this trip?” I asked in an attempt to make conversation.
He shrugged, “Same way as everyone else I guess. Found the program online, applied and six weeks later got a letter in the mail.”
I thought for a minute that all conversation was going to end there, but then he continued, “What about you guys?”
I shrugged, “Same thing. Ink and I applied together.” I didn’t mention my sister, not wanting to open that can of tears.
Ink let it slide.
After another two hours we began to get discouraged. We sat down and ate and then continued on.
“You know, it would be just our luck that there was water to the East.” Ink said as we trudged forward, the land was really sloping upward now.
“That’s nice Ink, let’s look at the bright side of things.” I teased lightly.
“On the bright side, we’re getting plenty of exercise.” Kaleb put in, panting slightly.
I laughed. “I knew I’d like you.”
We continued on, the sun now started to shine in our faces as we continued west. I checked my watch, 1 o’clock. “Guys, much farther and it won’t even be worth it.” I said, we’d already gone through an entire bottle.
“Give it another hour.” Kaleb said.
Five of walking, not to mention on the way back we would be carrying filled bottles. We were going to be exausted when we got back.
But then, ten minutes later I heard a sound that we’d been searching for, rushing water.
Kaleb and Ink heard it to, and we ran forward excitedly. Two minutes later we saw it, a fairly large rushing river.
Yes!” Ink and I hi-fived each other, and then Kaleb help up both of his hands and we slapped them.
“All right, first things first.” I said suddenly serious, “We drink!”
The three of us stooped at the edge of the river near the edge, the water was cool and deliciously fresh. Those things about “Natural Spring water” didn’t even come close.
I didn’t like the look of the current though, flying just a few feet in front of us, “I don’t think going into the water would be a good idea.” I said, sitting up to see Ink drinking next to me. “Kaleb?” I looked to my right and saw him walking out on a rock ledge the lead out to the middle of the river.
“Careful!” I called.
Suddenly a CRACK erupted through the sounds of the water. He froze as the ledge wobbled.
I stood up, a foot into the water, “Kaleb!” I yelled, “Get back over here” but he didn’t move. Next to me Ink yelled his name again.
He slowly looked up at me, I held his eyes for a split second, that’s when I knew. Somehow a second before the rock shattered I knew. So did he.
A second after he fell into the raging current I dove in after him. Within seconds the current was pulling me too, towards the cliffs and the inevitable waterfall.
The current tugged and twisted me, but I didn’t fight against it. I let is pull me and I desperately searched for Kaleb. But I was moving so fast. I saw that the edge was only thirty feet away.
Crap- I was moving too fast, and I wasn’t sure I could break the current. Suddenly I saw a plaid shirt just a few feet ahead of me. Kaleb. I surged forward and grabbed him.
Then I was falling. But only for a second. I hit the water, tugging Kaleb along with me, unconscious. I was pushed several feet under by the water fall. I kicked with all my might to get out from under it. A small voice in my head told me this would be a lot easier if I would let go, but I refused. Stubbornly I kicked along till finally the enourmas pressure was gone.
I surged upward and inhaled, the air feeling sweet against my burning lungs. After taking a few breaths I lay on my back and heaved Kaleb up so that I had my arm holding him securely across his chest.
“Jodi!” I heard Ink yell. I looked up to see her worried face about ten feet above me at the top of the fall. “We’re good!” I yelled.
The pool of water that I was in now turned out to be on another ledge just ten feet below the top. I looked around and spotted one problem, “Ink is there any land?” I called up to her.
She pointed East. “There’s a bit over there. Its not very big though.”
“That’s okay!” then I began to swim over.
Ink walked along the edge, keeping pace with me, “How’s Kaleb?” She asked
“Unconscious!” I yelled back. I think my ears are waterlogged, I seemed to be yelling a lot.
“He doesn’t look like he’s breathing.”
That made me stop. Was he breathing? I didn’t feel his chest moving at all.. I treaded water and checked.
He wasn’t.
“No.” I started pulling back towards spot. I couldn’t help him while still in the water, “Come on Kaleb. Come on you have to breathe.” I said to him.
Ink was that I was now going double time towards the land. She seemed to understand now.
“Oh my god. Jodi!” She screamed
I didn’t say anything didn’t waste any breath one answering her. I could see the spot now.
I reached the ledge and pushed Kaleb up onto it before heaving myself out of the water.
Small to say the least. We had about four feet of space before it the edge. I tried to remember what we’d been taught about CPR.
“head back.” I muttered to my self.. But when I tilted his head back I froze. “What the-” I felt the back of his head.
Then I turned and threw up into the canyon on the other side of the landleadge
“Jodi! Are you okay?” Ink screamed again, helpless twenty feet above me. But I was still coughing up was seemed like a never ending stream of water.
After a minute I turned and wiped my mouth with the back of my sleeve. “He’s dead.” I choked out.
“What do you mean? You havn’t even tried-”
I cut her off, “The back of his skull,” I paused trying to dislodge the way his head had felt to my fingers, “It got smashed somehow.”
“What do you mean?”
“I mean Ink. That he’s dead. There’s nothing I can do.” Saying it outloud stung wildly.
She sank to her knees, not making any noise now. I stared at Kaleb’s face, you couldn’t even see it from this angle. Looked like he was sleeping…
We both sat there for a minute, unable to say anything. I heard Ink crying and then my brain snapped into the right mode.
I stood carefully, picking my way carefully along the ledge till I was a few feet away from the rock wall that would go back up to Ink.
It was slick, there was literally nothing to hold onto to try and climb it. Great, “Ink.” I called up to her.
She leaned forward to see me better, “Yeah?”
“Ink I can’t climb up the wall. Your going to have to go back and get help, and rope.”
She shook her head like I had expected her to. “No. I can’t leave you-”
“You have to. There’s no way for me to climb up Ink. Especially with-” I cut that, not wanting to say it, “just go and get help. Get Jared and Craig.”
Ink shook her head and started to cry again, “Jodi I can’t. Not by myself.”
“Yes you can. All you have to do is walk. Grab some of the full bottles and start walking.” I tried to show her the way I thought, how to just do it.
She stood and walked out of my sight range, I backed up, so that I could see her. She grabbed her bag and mine and gathered up the bottles, weather they were full or not and put them all into her pack. Kaleb’s sat near the now broken rock ledge. She left it.
She leaned over the edge, “Here!”
I took a few steps forward and caught my pack seconds after she dropped it. “Thanks. Now go!”

Book writing- Kaleb's death scene
Well, I managed to get through the dramatic drowning of Kaleb State last night. Yes, Kaleb State is based on Kaleb Nation. I'll post it when I actually put it on the computer, as the scene is hiding in my notebook for now. I actually upset myself when I finished, lol. I think it turned out really well though.
Also, filming might be postponed, but if it is, then I will be able to see Ink Lasts Longer!!!!! Its only five buck for a ticket, and they'll be a little over an hour away. Never thought I'd be happy that filming might be canceled. :)
S' all for now

just a short snippet
Here is (And I quote) a little conversation that my sister had with her dad this morning, after he'd been goofing off and such.
Ryenn- You know you're full of it
TP- Full of what?
Ryenn- Well it rhymes with it
Yes, this is Ryenn the girl with stuffed animals littering her bed, and screamed, "No CRAIG" when he pretended to fall out of a window. Cute, little Ryenn. I laughed SO hard.
Also, choreopgrahing on the 30th, not including my stuff on the 23rd. (I'm enacting all the shots and setting up lighting and such) filming might have to be postponed from the 5th-6th due to someone being busy. I won't say any names.
Bright side of that is that I might be able to go see Ink Lasts Longer then!! They're performing about an hour or so away that night.

Book Outline
Yup. I've been busy. Here is a sneak peak for all of you
Outline as of 4-30-09/5-11-09
Jodi, Ink, and Jared were all together on a plane to Asia to go mountain climbing/camping with a group of twenty-seven other kids and three adult leaders. They ranged from 13-17. They’re all students from the Chicago area. It took roughly four months of preparation classes and fundraising for them to be able to go. Within a few hours they experience turbulence and go down
They crashed into a small Island, with only 12 people out of the 37 people aboard. Within a day, two of them die of injuries. Leaving ten left.
At first everyone just focuses on being rescued, but after a week, they realize that it might not happen.
Most of the equipment and food survived, which meant that they have enough food for six weeks. However they weren’t prepared for tropical conditions, they were prepared for snow and climbing. So, first things are to get everything set up.
After that they have a meeting on how they are going to get home. Jared brings out the GPS that he’s fixed and breaks the news that they are on an island that shouldn’t exist. He tells them that he thinks that he can reverse engineer the GPS to send out a signal, but it will take time.
A few days later another problem arises, they are running out of water. They didn’t bring much, because you can just melt snow for water.
Storyline B: The flight attendant, Suzanne has been a pain. She thinks that being the adult she should be in charge of everything. But she really isn’t helping
Its agreed that because the flight attendant is the adult she should go with, but she argues and refuses. Annoyed, Kaleb volunteers to take her place. However on their quest for water, Kaleb falls and dies.
When the kids get back to the camp, people at first are glad that there was water, but then fall when they see the body. Suzanna looks stunned. Jodi slaps her. After this, Suzanna doesn’t bother anyone, but she doesn’t do anything either. Nobody bothers to do anything about it.
A pattern develops where people go back and forth to get the water until everything is full. Jodi and Ink start to explore the rainforest, taking someone else with them everyday. They find banana and coconut trees, along with other various fruits. Its decided that they’ll incorporate this into their regular food to try and save more of the regular food.
As the pattern continues, people start to get anxious. Jared is rarely seen, because he’s always working on the GPS. After another week, Jodi makes him come out and take a break. They have a good talk, but when they come back to the beach people get angry at him for leaving.
Jodi tries to defend him, but Jared snaps. He yells at everyone that he can’t do it.
Despair follows. People don’t know what to do. And Neither does Jodi for a while. Then Suzanna stands up and talks. She encourages them to start again
They develop a new plan. Get off. Its plain now that no one is coming. So they build a boat, possibly out of stuff from the plane, which they still are using for something. I don’t know what. Name for the plane?
They stop eating the real food because they know it will last longer on the boat. Instead they eat only the stuff from the island. Name the island?
Jared at this point has been outcast, nobody talks about what he did, or rather didn’t do. And it isn’t that they will no longer accept him, but rather that he won’t accept the fact that he failed everyone.
Jodi doesn’t know what to do with it, so she convinces herself that she’ll figure it out by the time they are ready to leave. But when that time comes, she still doesn’t have the words.
After a bad confrontation she takes a walk where she gets lost. Jared comes and find her, they make a pact to help each other, a little predictable, but what can you do?
Two days later they leave.
They spend four days on the water before a storm approaches. It takes a few hours for it to get there, but the storm rages across the tiny boat, tearing it to shreds.
Unsure amount of time later, Jodi wakes on a piece of driftwood with Jared necklace in her hand. She sees land, but it too tired to do anything, she drifts out of consciousness.
Someone yelling her name wakes her up. It’s Ink with Suzanna along with a bunch of locals. She’s rescued.
A week later she is back on a plane. They are going to the island to gather equipment, and take the families to the graves.
Jodi sneaks away to the cave and find Jared. Happy reunion. Then they go back to the group and leave the island.

Dew gives mountain a funny look
MOUNTAIN
Or something like that.
Dew continues to stare at Mountain
MOUNTAIN
Hey look the news is on.
Dew continues to stare at Mountain for another moment before turning to look at the TV.
NEWS REPORTER
A group known only as the Y’s has claimed responsibility for the recent attack.
DEW
Wait, the Y’s? Didn’t we just get files on them?
Suddenly three file appear out of nowhere. Mountain/Dew pick them up and look at them. Mountain/Dew reacts to Files. They exchange looks.
DEW
This is it! This could be our big break, we just have to convince the Director. Nobody else has these files! We’ll finally have a mission again!
MOUNTAIN
Yeah, it’s been 37 days 5 hours and looks at watch 31 minutes.
DEW
Let’s go ask the Director!
There are three criminal profiles. Each one describes a separate member of the Y group.
EXT. THE CHURCH- DAY

Mountain nods seriously.

DEW

SCOTTY
How do I know that you are not some terrorist who has kidnapped one of my agents and tortured the password out of them?
DEW
Well, you told me never to bring this up, but you like to wear this shirt that say’s-
SCOTTY
Alright you are who you say you are. Just don’t bring up my shirt. Or my mother. Or the fact that my mother is on that shirt. Pause you may enter.
He leaves the door cracked open. After a minute the Agents exchange a look and go in. We see a chair with the back to us. Scotty is in the chair.
INT. OFFICE- DAY- CONT.
SCOTTY
Sit.
Mountain Dew move to sit on the two chairs if front of the desk.
SCOTTY
Not those chairs.
They stop
SCOTTY
Those chairs.
Camera moves down to see two kid chairs. After exchanging a confused look Mountain/Dew sit down. An awkward beat. Then the chair turns around.
SCOTTY
Agent Mountain, Agent Dew. I havn’t seen the two of you in a long time. It must have been about a month or so ago, at the funeral.
Both agents look down at their feet.
SCOTTY
Yes. The funeral. It was such a shame to lose the twin sister of one of our best agents.
Mountain glances at Dew, who continues to look at the floor.
SCOTTY
So, what do you want?
MOUNTAIN
We would like to go on another mission.
SCOTTY
Yes I figured. I saw the news. It’s terrible isn’t it?
MOUNTAIN
Yes sir.
DEW
We have experience with these people sir. And I can tell you, nobody wants it more than I, I mean, we do.
SCOTTY
Perhaps.
DEW
Do you doubt that I want it?
SCOTTY
No. Just your level of experience
MOUNTAIN
Well we would have more experience if we had been given a mission in the last 37-
Dew Kicks Mountain to shut her up.
SCOTTY
Your answer is still no
MOUNTAIN
But-
SCOTTY
No. Now get out
DEW
We have the most-
SCOTTY
Stands up and looks meanacing Get out or I will throw you out.

DEW

The two of them leave. Pan over to see Scott watching them. Scotty pulls out a cell phone.
SCOTTY
They’re on their way.
ROSALIE
Good. You will receive your package in two days.
SCOTTY
Are you sure this won’t trace back to me?
ROSALIE
It won’t. Neither one of them will survive.
SCOTTY
All right
INT. OFFICE WITH MANY COMPUTERS- DAY
Rosalie is at the computer. She has a headset on. There are two people in the room with her. Each is wearing a skimask.
ROSALIE
All right. They’re on their way
MARTINA
And the pizza?
ROSALIE
Also on its way
MARTINA
Excellent.
ROSALIE
They should be here in about ten minutes.
MARTINA
So, how many are dead?
ROSALIE
11.
MARTINA
Darn it! I wanted an even dozen.
Ninja is silent at the back of the room
ROSALIE
We’ll have to aim higher next time.
MARTINA
We could hit a Chuckie Cheese!
Ninja takes one step forward.
MARTINA
Oh, right, kids. Hmmmm….. What about a feminist TV station?
ROSALIE
Feminists sounds good.
They all nod. Then Rosalie’s computer beeps. She looks at it and types a bunch of things in.
ROSALIE
We have visual confirmation. They’re here.
MARTINA
Good. Ninja, you take the back. I’ll take the front. Rosalie, bring up the schematics.
Rosalie brings up a screen that shows a picture of the house.
ROSALIE
All right we’re good.
The other two start to head out
ROSALIE
Martina!
Martina turns around. Rosalie tosses her Martina’s phone.
ROSALIE
Stay in contact.
Martina nods. Rosalie puts on her headset and looks at the screen.
ROSALIE
And the Pizza should be here in about twenty.
EXT. DRIVEWAY- DAY
Agents. They get out of the car. They both take off their ID tags and throw them into the dirt.
DEW
You take the front. I’ll take the back.
The two of them split up. We follow Mountain as she takes the front.
EXT. FRONT DOOR- CONT. She pulls out a gun, and starts to open the door. Suddenly her gun is kicked out of her hand. She looks up to see Martina Y. A beat as the two exchange looks, then Mountain throws a punch at Martina Y. Martina easily dodges it, and then using Mountain’s momentum to throw her onto the ground. Martina then picks up Mountain’s gun and points it as her.
MARTINA
I could kill you now. But I’m going to save you for somebody else.
Martina takes the gun and whacks Mountain in the head with it. Rosalie looks at her screen and calls Martina. Martina answers.
ROSALIE
Ninja needs your help.
MARTINA
On it.
ROSALIE
And the pizza will be here soon.
MARTINA
Make sure no delivery person survives.
EXT. MY YARD AND AREA SURROUNDING IT
Martina runs around the house. We follow her and see her arrive just as Ninja is thrown to the ground. Dew turns and runs away. Martina runs past Ninja after Dew. Next we see several scenes of Martina Y, and Ninja chasing Dew.
Martina and Ninja stop and look around
MARTINA
Where is she?
Both are panting as they talk. Dew listening in behind a corner. Martina calls Rosalie.
MARTINA
Rosalie, where’s Dew?
MOUNTAIN
Rosalie can’t come to the phone right now. She’s a little tied up.
MARTINA
Who is this?
MOUNTAIN
Who do you think it is?
MARTINA
Mountain?
MOUNTAIN
No, Pepsi.
MARTINA
Oh, Pepsi!
MOUNTAIN
Shut up. I have your comrade, Rosalie. If you want her back, you’ll have to give me something in return.
MARTINA
I’m listening, but still confused, is this Pepsi, or Mountain?
MOUNTAIN
This is Mountain!
MARTINA
Right. What is it that you want?
MOUNTAIN
I want Ninja
Martina looks over at Ninja
MARTINA
Why?
MOUNTAIN
We have some, unfinished business.
MARTINA
Like what?
MOUNTAIN
Like, a pause, just stuff okay!
MARTINA
I’ll call you in a minute
Martina closes the phone
MARTINA
Mountain has Rosalie. She wants to trade her. For you.
Ninja stares at Martina for a minute. Then she does a ninja bow.
MARTINA
Why does she want you?
Ninja stares at Martina. Then Martina takes out her phone again.
MARTINA
All right, but seriously, what is it that you want with her?
MOUNTAIN
That is none of your business! Meet at the ditch in three hours.
Mountain closes the phone.
MARTINA
We’re meeting at the ditch in three hours
Ninja nods

Martina then turns around and shoots the pizza person several times.
MARTINA
Argh!
EXT. THE DITCH- DAY
Flash forward to the meeting place. Mountain is already there. Rosalie is standing next to her, hands tied behind her back.
MOUNTAIN
Try anything and you die.
Then Ninja and Martina walk in, eating pizza.
MOUNTAIN
Where’d you get the pizza?
MARTINA
Do you really want to know?
MOUNTAIN
No, not really.
ROSALIE
Where’s mine?
MARTINA
We saved some for you. It’s back at the house.
MOUNTAIN
Enough! So, this is how it’s going to work. You will both put your weapons on the ground. Then Ninja and Rosalie will walk toward each other. If this doesn’t go smoothly, then I will not hesitate to shoot any of you.
DEW
And Neither will I.
Dew walks in with her gun pointed at Ninja and Martina
MARTINA
Oh Shiny.
Realizing that they are cornered they both raise their hands.
DEW
Kick your weapons over
They do
DEW
Get on the ground
They do. Dew Walks over to tie them up, but Ninja kicks her legs out from under her and then puts a knife to Dews throat. Martina calmly gets up.
MARTINA
I have a new proposition. Dew for Rosalie.
Before Mountain can respond Dew throws off Ninja and runs across to Mountain.
MOUNTAIN
I have another proposition, the same one as before.
A beat and then the two begin to walk forward. Very dramatic. Finally each is on the other side. Martina cuts Rosalie’s bonds and Ninja has a gun held to her head by Dew.
DEW
You can leave now.
The other two leave.

MOUNTAIN
So, we meet again.
Ninja nods
MOUNTAIN
I suspect you want to kill me even more than I want to kill you.
Closeup on Ninja, who betrays little emotion
MOUNTAIN
You don’t talk much anymore. Perhaps that is because it was you talking that got him killed.
Ninja attacks, using her sais. After exchanging a few motions, they’re blades bring them face to face.
NINJA
My name is Man xu xiang xing xu you kill (or kiss we have yet to decide) my brother, prepare to die!
They break apart. They fight some more, eventually Ninja kills Mountain. Then Ninja walks away. Pan over then to Dew who runs back over to Mountain. Dew freaks out that Mountain is dead. Dew then decides to take her revenge on Martina

DIRECTORS VERSION
EXT. BACK PORCH- NIGHT
A large group of girls are laughing. They head out to the yard.
EXT. MY BACKYARD – CONTINUOUS
CAMERAGIRL
Hold on guys. I can’t even see you.
The nightshot is turned on.
CAMERAGIRL
(Laughing)
There, man you guys look creepy.
Suddenly GUNSHOTS erupt from the right of the camera.
CAMERAGIRL
What th-
Ninja cuts across the sight of the camera wielding two sai, CHAOS erupts.
The girls scatter, and Ninja attacks one, we glimpse her taking down the other person.
The CAMERAGIRL runs around, we hear loud breathing, she trips over a body and leaves the camera on the ground.
She makes it a few steps before being confronted by Martina who shoots her down in full view of the camera.
More screams and shots are heard as we shift realities.
Video is moved to a corner and words scroll by as they are read aloud by a newscaster
NEWSCASTER
This footage was recovered from the scene. X amount are dead and Y are injured.
FADE OUT
INT. PLACE WITH COUCHES AND TV- DAY
Two teens lounge on a couch, watching TV. Both wear Mountain Dew Shirts, and are drinking Mountain Dew.
DEW
Seriously when was the last time we had an assignment?
MOUNTAIN
37 days five hours and 28 minutes.
Dew gives mountain a funny look
MOUNTAIN
Or something like that.
Dew continues to stare at Mountain
MOUNTAIN
Hey look the news is on.
Dew continues to stare at Mountain for another moment before turning to look at the TV.
NEWS REPORTER
A group known only as the Y’s has claimed responsibility for the recent attack.
DEW
Wait, the Y’s? Didn’t we just get files on them?
Suddenly three file appear out of nowhere. Mountain/Dew pick them up and look at them. Mountain/Dew reacts to Files. They exchange looks.
DEW
This is it! This could be our big break, we just have to convince the Director. Nobody else has these files! We’ll finally have a mission again!
MOUNTAIN
Yeah, it’s been 37 days 5 hours and looks at watch 31 minutes.
DEW
Let’s go ask the Director!
There are three criminal profiles. Each one describes a separate member of the Y group.
EXT. THE CHURCH- DAY
MOUNTAIN
This is where the Director is?
DEW
He’s deep undercover, pretending to work here as a youth leader
Mountain nods seriously.
INT. CHURCH HALLWAY- CONT.
Mountain/Dew knock on a door.
SCOTTY
Password?
DEW
Beam me up Scotty.
SCOTTY
How do I know that you are not some terrorist who has kidnapped one of my agents and tortured the password out of them?
DEW
Well, you told me never to bring this up, but you like to wear this shirt that say’s-
SCOTTY
Alright you are who you say you are. Just don’t bring up my shirt. Or my mother. Or the fact that my mother is on that shirt. Pause you may enter.
He leaves the door cracked open. After a minute the Agents exchange a look and go in. We see a chair with the back to us. Scotty is in the chair.
INT. OFFICE- DAY- CONT.
SCOTTY
Sit.
Mountain Dew move to sit on the two chairs if front of the desk.
SCOTTY
Not those chairs.
They stop
SCOTTY
Those chairs.
Camera moves down to see two kid chairs. After exchanging a confused look Mountain/Dew sit down. An awkward beat. Then the chair turns around.
SCOTTY
Agent Mountain, Agent Dew. I havn’t seen the two of you in a long time. It must have been about a month or so ago, at the funeral.
Both agents look down at their feet.
SCOTTY
Yes. The funeral. It was such a shame to lose the twin sister of one of our best agents.
Mountain glances at Dew, who continues to look at the floor.
SCOTTY
So, what do you want?
MOUNTAIN
We would like to go on another mission.
SCOTTY
Yes I figured. I saw the news. It’s terrible isn’t it?
MOUNTAIN
Yes sir.
DEW
We have experience with these people sir. And I can tell you, nobody wants it more than I, I mean, we do.
SCOTTY
Perhaps.
DEW
Do you doubt that I want it?
SCOTTY
No. Just your level of experience
MOUNTAIN
Well we would have more experience if we had been given a mission in the last 37-
Dew Kicks Mountain to shut her up.
SCOTTY
Your answer is still no
MOUNTAIN
But-
SCOTTY
No. Now get out
DEW
We have the most-
SCOTTY
Stands up and looks meanacing Get out or I will throw you out.
Mountain/Dew get out.
DEW
How can he not put us on this assignment?
MOUNTAIN
So why don’t we do it?
DEW
Because we were told not to
MOUNTAIN
So?
DEW
You want to go haywire?
MOUNTAIN
I don’t see anything holding us back! We haven’t had a mission in 37 days!
DEW
And five hours-
MOUNTAIN
See! We can’t just wait. Soon this information won’t be any good.
DEW
and 57 minutes.
MOUNTAIN
We have to move now.
The two of them leave. Pan over to see Scott watching them. Scotty pulls out a cell phone.
SCOTTY
They’re on their way.
ROSALIE
Good. You will receive your package in two days.
SCOTTY
Are you sure this won’t trace back to me?
ROSALIE
It won’t. Neither one of them will survive.
SCOTTY
All right
INT. OFFICE WITH MANY COMPUTERS- DAY
Rosalie is at the computer. She has a headset on. There are two people in the room with her. Each is wearing a skimask.
ROSALIE
All right. They’re on their way
MARTINA
And the pizza?
ROSALIE
Also on its way
MARTINA
Excellent.
ROSALIE
They should be here in about ten minutes.
MARTINA
So, how many are dead?
ROSALIE
11.
MARTINA
Darn it! I wanted an even dozen.
Ninja is silent at the back of the room
ROSALIE
We’ll have to aim higher next time.
MARTINA
We could hit a Chuckie Cheese!
Ninja takes one step forward.
MARTINA
Oh, right, kids. Hmmmm….. What about a feminist TV station?
ROSALIE
Feminists sounds good.
They all nod. Then Rosalie’s computer beeps. She looks at it and types a bunch of things in.
ROSALIE
We have visual confirmation. They’re here.
MARTINA
Good. Ninja, you take the back. I’ll take the front. Rosalie, bring up the schematics.
Rosalie brings up a screen that shows a picture of the house.
ROSALIE
All right we’re good.
The other two start to head out
ROSALIE
Martina!
Martina turns around. Rosalie tosses her Martina’s phone.
ROSALIE
Stay in contact.
Martina nods. Rosalie puts on her headset and looks at the screen.
ROSALIE
And the Pizza should be here in about twenty.
EXT. DRIVEWAY- DAY
Agents. They get out of the car. They both take off their ID tags and throw them into the dirt.
DEW
You take the front. I’ll take the back.
The two of them split up. We follow Mountain as she takes the front.
EXT. FRONT DOOR- CONT. She pulls out a gun, and starts to open the door. Suddenly her gun is kicked out of her hand. She looks up to see Martina Y. A beat as the two exchange looks, then Mountain throws a punch at Martina Y. Martina easily dodges it, and then using Mountain’s momentum to throw her onto the ground. Martina then picks up Mountain’s gun and points it as her.
MARTINA
I could kill you now. But I’m going to save you for somebody else.
Martina takes the gun and whacks Mountain in the head with it. Rosalie looks at her screen and calls Martina. Martina answers.
ROSALIE
Ninja needs your help.
MARTINA
On it.
ROSALIE
And the pizza will be here soon.
MARTINA
Make sure no delivery person survives.
EXT. MY YARD AND AREA SURROUNDING IT
Martina runs around the house. We follow her and see her arrive just as Ninja is thrown to the ground. Dew turns and runs away. Martina runs past Ninja after Dew. Next we see several scenes of Martina Y, and Ninja chasing Dew.
Martina and Ninja stop and look around
MARTINA
Where is she?
Both are panting as they talk. Dew listening in behind a corner. Martina calls Rosalie.
MARTINA
Rosalie, where’s Dew?
MOUNTAIN
Rosalie can’t come to the phone right now. She’s a little tied up.
MARTINA
Who is this?
MOUNTAIN
Who do you think it is?
MARTINA
Mountain?
MOUNTAIN
No, Pepsi.
MARTINA
Oh, Pepsi!
MOUNTAIN
Shut up. I have your comrade, Rosalie. If you want her back, you’ll have to give me something in return.
MARTINA
I’m listening, but still confused, is this Pepsi, or Mountain?
MOUNTAIN
This is Mountain!
MARTINA
Right. What is it that you want?
MOUNTAIN
I want Ninja
Martina looks over at Ninja
MARTINA
Why?
MOUNTAIN
We have some, unfinished business.
MARTINA
Like what?
MOUNTAIN
Like, a pause, just stuff okay!
MARTINA
I’ll call you in a minute
Martina closes the phone
MARTINA
Mountain has Rosalie. She wants to trade her. For you.
Ninja stares at Martina for a minute. Then she does a ninja bow.
MARTINA
Why does she want you?
Ninja stares at Martina. Then Martina takes out her phone again.
MARTINA
All right, but seriously, what is it that you want with her?
MOUNTAIN
That is none of your business! Meet at the ditch in three hours.
Mountain closes the phone.
MARTINA
We’re meeting at the ditch in three hours
Ninja nods
MARTINA
But, the pizza will be delivered in a matter of minutes. With Rosalie out of commission, we’re going to have to take care of that ourselves.

Filming crazyness!
So here are some more updates
It looks like we're going to be filming in exactly a month! Exciting, but also nervewracking for me as I have lots to do now. We still need to choreograph, the Ninja VS. Mountain scene is schedualed, but I don't know where we're going to do it. So there's still more choreographing and then the tableread. Which really could just be done before filming on the 5th.
Filming has been moved to my house and the church total. Not sure when exactly we are going to get into the church for those scenes, but we'll figure it out eventually. The Ninja VS. Mountain scene has been moved there, I think.
I still need to do the four hours scenes, I havn't gotton my but moving on those and I will soon. I know to kill Scott, just not sure how just yet. At the moment its either drowned by coffee or choke on a cheezeit. Not sure which just yet. :D I do know that Dew kills him because she realizes that he betrayed them. That explains where she was for the past four hours as well.
So things are getting solved, and I'm now off to plot and scheme my take-over of the world.

Continueing with the blogging
Yes, I know the title is spelled wrong, but if you are reading this blog, then you know that I can't spell my way out of a paper bag (No, I can't take credit for that. James Patterson must have it)
The video has been favorited by Evil Iguana Productions!!! I'm still stunned. Ha! It already has more views than my other Atlantis fanvideo that went up four months ago! Lots of exclamation points I know. But its very exciting for a fangrl like me.
That's all for now
