111. As the speartips clatter to the floor, Oishi meets Kira’s eyes...and smiles. Kira’s face falls. And Oishi CHARGES. SHUNK-SHUNK-SHUNK- SHUNK! Waves of spears flash out, but Oishi’s sword whips around him at blinding speed, his amazing bladework turning the hallway into an EXPLOSION OF SPLINTERS as he races through to the end and after Kira. INT. CASTLE - OUTSIDE MIKA’S CHAMBERS - SAME TIME Mika watches in horror as Minoru and the Lovecraftian Samurai hack and slash at each other in the mother of all battles. Minoru’s sword versus the demon fighter’s blade and whipping tentacles. The fight is a blur, but like their previous fight in the arena, we again watch helpless as the TIDE SLOWLY TURNS against Minoru. The Lovecraftian Samurai repeatedly WHIPS OUT his heavy steel dreadlocks to trap Minoru’s sword and strike down into his shoulder. His back. His arm. But the worst happens when Minoru goes to defend a lightning fast attack -- that the Lovecraftian Samurai suddenly REVERSES, COMPLETELY SEVERING Minoru’s little and ring fingers from his right hand! GAAAAGHH! MINORU The koto blade falls from Minoru’s grasp to clatter to the floor. And in that instant, the Lovecraftian warrior SLINGS his head around and LASHES his tentacles around Minoru’s throat, YANKS the ronin close and -- No! MIKA -- STABS Minoru COMPLETELY THROUGH HIS CHEST! Mika screams as she sees the bloody blade EXPLODE from Minoru’s back. The demon samurai yanks the blade out, then HURLS Minoru to the ground like trash. Stomps on his chest and readies his blade for the final, life-ending thrust. Minoru lays there gasping, all the fight bleeding out of him onto the floor with his life’s blood. LOVECRAFTIAN SAMURAI Your father should have done this the moment you came out of the womb, halfbreed whelp.
112. And just as the Lovecraftian Samurai pulls back to strike -- We see Mika RISE behind him, Minoru’s sword held high! With righteous fire, she CHOPS DOWN! VFX - SLOW MOTION: But as the sword nears, the samurai SENSES the threat and wheels around, the blow missing him by the width of a strand of silk. The sword clangs off the ground, and the demon samurai SMASHES MIKA DOWN with a vicious steel-gauntleted backhand. Mika crumples to the ground, and seeing that -- MINORU’S -- switch is flipped. With a cry of rage, he rises from the dead, ignoring the pain to snatch up his sword and throw himself into one final all-consuming attack. The Lovecraftian Samurai tries to counter with his tentacles -- but Minoru SEVERS THEM WITH A SINGLE MIGHTY BLOW! The samurai staggers back in shock, unbelieving, severed tentacles clinking to the floor around him. And that’s when Minoru finishes it. Sword whirling like a helicopter blade, Minoru VIVISECTS THE BASTARD INTO NEAT LITTLE SIX-INCH HORIZONTAL SLICES FROM HEAD TO FOOT! Mika stares until Minoru turns her away from the gruesome sight. Let’s go. MINORU And as he leads her away, HARD CUT TO: EXT. CASTLE - THE WAR AT THE INNER GATE The ronin still hold the portal...but they’re taking ghastly injuries and -- SFX: THE SPLINTERING OF WOOD! Under the weight of the onslaught, the gate is beginning to FRACTURE, while -- INT. CASTLE - CORRIDORS - SAME TIME Oishi ignores his injuries and TRACKS Kira to:
