MUTANIC KAIJUS
EPISODE 7: "The Howl of War"
EXT. DARK FOREST – NIGHT
BOSS
Find him... and bring him to me.
Over 100 soldiers in bulletproof suits storm through the forest toward the city.
EXT. CITY – ROOFTOPS – NIGHT
KELTON (watching from a rooftop)
Guess it's begun.
(He begins transforming.)
EXT. MRS. KELINZA'S HOUSE – ROOF – NIGHT
DINNA (crouched on the roof)
I'll really miss this place.
(She transforms into a panther mutant.)
Florencia walks out, hops onto Dinna's back.
FLORENCIA
Let's go.
DINNA
Yeah.
EXT. MOUNTAINSIDE – NIGHT
MAXI (perched on a cliff)
It's time already.
(She transforms into a falcon mutant.)
INT. HIDDEN ROOM – NIGHT
RODAN
Now things can go back to the way they were.
(He transforms.)
EXT. SHORELINE – NIGHT
Florencia arrives. Her boss, a tall woman in a cape, greets her.
BOSS (MRS. IVY GENKASA)
How are you, dear?
FLORENCIA
I'm fine.
MRS. IVY
Are you sure?
FLORENCIA
Yes.
SOLDIER
So... who are our targets, Boss?
MRS. IVY
Mrs. Kelinza, Nayoka... and their pet.
INT. SCHOOL HALLWAY – NIGHT
TYBEAST
Miss Kelinza, they're here.
MRS. KELINZA
I'm aware. Get Nayoka and protect him.
TYBEAST
What about you? I'm sure he can protect himself.
MRS. KELINZA
Stop being silly. Go.
KOTAN
Your Highness, the school's surrounded.
MRS. KELINZA
As for the rest of you, you're coming with me.
INT. PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE – NIGHT
MRS. KELINZA addresses the intercom.
MRS. KELINZA
Ladies and gentlemen, today is a holiday. Please go home at once.
EXT. SCHOOL GATE – MOMENTS LATER
Students pour out of the building, ignoring the soldiers. The soldiers try to stop them, but the crowd finds clever ways to slip through. The building is now empty.
INT. RADIO COMMS – SOLDIER POV
SOLDIER (V.O.)
She's not in there, Boss.
MRS. IVY (V.O.)
Obviously. The students were a decoy. Find her!
EXT. BUSHES – NIGHT
Kotan and Mrs. Kelinza open a tunnel entrance.
KOTAN
Um, Your Highness. I have something to say.
MRS. KELINZA
She drugged him?
KOTAN
Didn't seem like it...
MRS. KELINZA
If you've got something to say, make it fast.
KOTAN
Leniel... he passed out.
MRS. KELINZA
I don't get what you're trying to say.
KOTAN
She... cooked something for him. Then she kissed him... and he just passed out.
(Mrs. Kelinza's eyes shadow ominously.)
MRS. KELINZA
Huh... I see. Well, change of plans.
EXT. NEIGHBORHOOD STREETS – NIGHT
Soldiers scatter through the area. Tybeast and Nayoka sneak through bushes but get spotted by Vatrion.
TYBEAST
Shit.
All the soldiers, Rodan, and the girls begin charging toward them.
NAYOKA
This is bad. What now?
TYBEAST (sighs, transforming)
Guess we're left with no choice.
NAYOKA
You can't possibly defeat them all.
TYBEAST
I've got Hydrion's cells too. Now all I need is permission.
NAYOKA
To do what?
TYBEAST
I'm not to kill unless protecting Leniel. But if things get this bad, Mrs. Kelinza said to...
INT. PHONE CALL – CONTINUOUS
NAYOKA
Hello?
MRS. KELINZA (V.O.)
Is Tybeast around?
NAYOKA
...Yes.
MRS. KELINZA
Have you been spotted?
NAYOKA
...Yes.
MRS. KELINZA
Put the phone on loudspeaker.
NAYOKA
Okay. (Does so.)
MRS. KELINZA
Tybeast, you have my permission to kill anyone or anything in your way and...
(Tybeast finishes his transformation.)
MRS. KELINZA (CONT'D)
...protect Nayoka at all costs. But make sure you're captured after a while... and avoid the mutants if you can.
TYBEAST (howls)
Kill them all!
EXT. CITY – NIGHT
A massive pack of wolves and dogs respond and storm into battle alongside Tybeast. Soldiers fall like insects, limbs torn, screams filling the air.
EXT. VALLEY – CONTINUOUS
Vatrion charges in, tries to land attacks, but Tybeast dodges them. Then...
ARKRION
There's nowhere to run... whatever you are.
TYBEAST
Wait... where's Nayoka?
ARKRION (holds Nayoka by his shirt)
Take him away.
NAYOKA
Sorry, dude...
(Maxi flies off with Nayoka.)
ARKRION
You're next.
(They clash. Tybeast dodges, runs, gets thrown by Vatrion, but lands on his feet and escapes.)
EXT. RIVER – MOMENTS LATER
Vatrion searches a valley... pounced by Tybeast! Face-first into the water. Wings torn. Arm ripped. Blood floods.
TYBEAST
Stay put.
(He vanishes.)
EXT. RIVERBANK – MOMENTS LATER
Arkrion swims fast, jumps! Tybeast flips over him, kicks him back into water, runs away. Arkrion fires a laser—miss.
INT. SKY – CONTINUOUS
Vatrion and Arkrion fly overhead.
ARKRION
There he is.
They dive. Arkrion draws a laser circle around Tybeast.
TYBEAST
You're starting to piss me off.
He bites Arkrion's waist, spins, tosses him.
Vatrion grabs Tybeast's spine, flies downward.
TYBEAST
No!
Tybeast twists Vatrion's ankle and slams him into a mountain.
EXT. OBSERVATION HILL – SAME TIME
RODAN
He's not that strong. He's smaller than Hydrion. All he can do is...
MRS. KELINZA
...survive. That's Tybeast's special ability—pure defensive reflexes. He could even hold off the original Hydrion.
EXT. BATTLEFIELD – SAME TIME
Tybeast lands before Arkrion.
TYBEAST
I feel like I'm forgetting something Mrs. Kelinza said and—
(Both Vatrion and Arkrion leap at him.)
TYBEAST
Oh yeah, that's right!
EXT. RIDGELINE – NIGHT
MRS. KELINZA sets up a missile launcher.
MRS. KELINZA
There she is...
KOTAN
Your Highness, this isn't part of the plan!
MRS. KELINZA
We made changes.
KOTAN
No—guys! Help me!
Kaya knocks her out with a karate chop.
FIONA (shivering)
What did you just do?
KAYA
Only option.
MIDAS
No it wasn't.
KOTAN
Statistically, 97% chance she'd ruin everything... so, yeah, it kinda was.
EXT. SHORE – NIGHT
Dinna lands with Nayoka. The BOSS approaches.
MRS. IVY
You must be Nayoka. Not what I expected.
NAYOKA
Uh... who are you?
MRS. IVY
I'm Mrs. Ivy Genkasa, boss of...
NAYOKA
GKI?
MRS. IVY
Yes. Heard of us?
NAYOKA
Only in stories.
MRS. IVY
Good. Take him aboard.
Two soldiers drag him to a ship.
EXT. BUSHES – SAME TIME
MAXI
I should check on Rodan and Kelton.
RODAN (drops Tybeast's limp body)
No need.
MAXI
You beat him?
RODAN
Yeah.
DINNA
But last time—
RODAN
That was last time.
MAXI
Is it just me, or does he look like Mrs. Kelinza's dog?
DINNA
What do you want him to look like, a cat?
FLORENCIA
That's because he is hers.
EXT. BUSHES – CONTINUOUS
A soldier approaches their location.
KAYA
This is bad. What do we do?
MIDAS
You're asking me?
SOLDIER
Who's there?
KOTAN
This is why you don't knock her out.
KAYA
Look who's talking!
SOLDIER
Come out!
Fiona leans to Mrs. Kelinza's ear.
FIONA (whispers)
Florencia is making out with Leniel... hardcore.
MRS. KELINZA jolts awake. Missile launcher in hand.
SOLDIER
Found them—!
MRS. KELINZA
Die.
(BOOM. Explosion.)
EXT. RIDGE – NIGHT
KELTON
What was that?
MRS. IVY
She's here.
MRS. KELINZA reloads.
MRS. KELINZA
Where is she?
MIDAS (points)
Down there.
MRS. K fires. Rodan sees it.
MRS. KELINZA
That's for stealing my son's first kiss—without my blessing!
GROUP
...Huh?
Only Florencia hears.
RODAN
Florencia!!
Rodan jumps in, takes the missile. Smoke clears—Florencia safe.
FLORENCIA (coughing)
EXT. CLEARING – NIGHT
MRS. KELINZA and team are captured before Ivy.
MRS. IVY
Hello, Mrs. Kelinza.
MRS. KELINZA
I'll tear you apart.
MRS. IVY
Since when did you hold such a grudge?
TEAM (V.O.)
I don't think she's talking about you...
MRS. KELINZA
You thief.
MRS. IVY
What did I steal?
FLORENCIA (thinking)
How does she know...?
MRS. KELINZA
You'll live to regret it.
MRS. IVY
Heard you've got a son. Maybe I'll marry him. We'd be family.
MRS. KELINZA
Guess there's a first time for everything... even murder.
MRS. IVY
What was his name again... Leniel?
TYBEAST
The one and only.
MRS. IVY
Not bad. Where is he now?
FLORENCIA
Probably asleep by now.
MRS. KELINZA
You leave him out of this!
MRS. IVY
And if I don't?
MRS. KELINZA
You know me, Ivy.
MRS. IVY
Fine. Where's Hydrion? Better yet—who is Hydrion?
MRS. KELINZA
Huh?
MRS. IVY
Nayoka doesn't look the part. That over there is just a dog.
MRS. KELINZA
He doesn't look the part, huh? Tybeast... call him.
TYBEAST (smirks, howls)
Suddenly—
One of the ships explodes. Screams, blood, gunfire. Chaos erupts.
MRS. KELINZA
What did they say about judging a book by its cover?
From the flames...
HYDRION (emerges from the burning ship)
(Roars)
ARKRION / VATRION / MAXI / DINNA (ready for battle)
HYDRION (cracking his neck)
Finally... I'm out.
TO BE CONTINUED...
