The 47 Ronin v1.3 (c#1A72A6.fdr - Whoa is (Not)

92.
CHIEF MONK
LOCK THE DOORS! KILL EVERYONE
INSIDE! LET NO RONIN ESCAPE!
OUTSIDE
a dozen of Kira’s men begin to swing the massive temple doors
shut.
INSIDE
Muskets THUNDER. Arrows FLY. And Oishi sees their only
chance of escape closing. The doors are so colossal that
once they’re shut, there will be no opening them.
Amid the chaos, Oishi spots the sumo-sized Basho in the
crowd.
OISHI
BASHO! THE DOOR!
The giant looks up and responds instantly, surging forward
and bowling a path through the crowd to reach the tremendous
doors a heartbeat before closing.
He hits them like a force of nature, driving the dozen men
trying to close them back a foot, their boots skidding loudly
across the stone floor.
But that’s where the forward momentum stops and the war of
strength begins. OUTSIDE, more men pile on the doors, trying
to force them shut, while INSIDE Basho strains mightily
against their combined efforts.
KIRA’S SOLDIERS AND WARRIOR MONKS
lash out at anyone within reach -- men, women, children --
but find their weapons BLOCKED by ronin swords that appear
from nowhere, protecting the innocents then striking their
own lethal return blow.
An arrow about to take a child’s life is SEVERED IN MID-AIR
by Minoru’s saving sword -- and before the cleaved arrow can
fall to the ground, Minoru snatches it out of the sky and
stabs it into the face of an attacking warrior monk.
OISHI defends against three warrior monks, SHATTERING all
three of their weapons with a single angry strike.
But as much damage as they’re doing, the ronin are
desperately outnumbered and are starting to take heavy
casualties.
