INT. A DIMLY LIT CELL562Please respect copyright.PENANAQKAPOpta8G
THREE MEN are shackled on the floor of the dim, dank cell. The sound of a crowd roaring can be heard in the distance. MAN ONE is quaking and sobbing. MAN TWO is muttering to himself while rocking back and forth. MAN THREE (an extremely well built man with long blonde hair)looks calm and collected. KELVAN, a grizzled man with too many scars to count, appears at the door of the cell.562Please respect copyright.PENANAg6UI0A5sGz

Give the good sword to blondie. He might have had a chance if it weren't for these two worthless worms.562Please respect copyright.PENANAKa5XBu3wy7
The two guards unshackle all of the men. A SERVANT GIRL enters holding weapons. Rusty old blades, that look like well used garden machetes, are handed to the two scared men. A sharp looking sword is handed to Man Three (now known as BLONDIE).562Please respect copyright.PENANAjasJckByik
INT. DIM HALLWAY562Please respect copyright.PENANARrLCgCA9Mw
The three men are forced out of their cell by the guards and ushered down a hallway. There is light coming through the doorway at the end. Kelvan and the servant girl watch from behind. Man One wets himself. The urine runs down his legs as they get closer to the door. The screams of the crowd get louder as they get closer. When they approach the door one of the guards knocks twice on it and it flies open, flooding the room with sunlight.562Please respect copyright.PENANAK9mZvmHrek
EXT. A MAKESHIFT, OUTDOOR ARENA WITH BLOOD SPLOTCHES ON THE GROUND562Please respect copyright.PENANAXTv03CkxKP
A GLADIATOR dressed in patchwork armor made of football pads, a motorcycle helmet, spikes, leather and chain is holding a huge axe in the center of the arena. He is playing up to the cheering crowd. The three men stand in the door way as it shuts. Man One turns and starts banging on the door.562Please respect copyright.PENANAaXYFLrOhUX
MAN ONE562Please respect copyright.PENANAJpaB8UvfMa
Please! Please! Let me back in!562Please respect copyright.PENANAU359wrKYA7
Man One looks frantically around the arena until he sees an IMPORTANT LOOKING MAN sitting in what appears to be a balcony. The man I surrounded by GUARDS. Man One runs up to the balcony and falls to his knees in front of it.562Please respect copyright.PENANAGy567YInn2

Please, Gemini! Please! I've learned my lesson! I will make up for the rations I took! My family was starving!562Please respect copyright.PENANANN7LimPsrq
The important looking man (now known as GEMINI) stands and looks down on the pleading man. The crowd becomes silent. 562Please respect copyright.PENANA2Pvy0TCG27
GEMINI (IN AN UNNATURALLY LOUD VOICE)562Please respect copyright.PENANAPip7EWG3J7
Your family is now in a labor camp. Let this man serve as a warning to any who steal from the state. 562Please respect copyright.PENANA7Rh0WImwLP
Man One is cleaved in half by the gladiator and his axe. The crowd goes wild. Gemini smiles and sits. He nods to an ANNOUNCER who is not far from them. The Announcer grabs his microphone. 562Please respect copyright.PENANA1HcTXUpXD7

BLONDIE562Please respect copyright.PENANANbT6BPvoQP
Stay near me. We must work together.562Please respect copyright.PENANAcDY81YH8lc
The sound of thunder crashes through the sky again. Man Two continues to breath heavy as he flanks Blondie. Vulture heads towards them. The gladiator swings at them several times with his axe. The two men are able to dodge each blow.562Please respect copyright.PENANAQEjLo4t8sM
BLONDIE562Please respect copyright.PENANAalEJkLDtBS
Follow my attack!562Please respect copyright.PENANAkYZiWCx34D

BLONDIE562Please respect copyright.PENANAewUIgmHbwP
Follow my attack!562Please respect copyright.PENANA6JVah2jp3c
Blondie swings his sword several times, but is met by Vulture as he takes his axe in both hands and slams the handle into Blondie’s face. Thunder continues to rumble. Blondie falls to the ground. Vulture turns towards Man Two. He then shakes his head and starts showboating for the crowd. Man Two pumps himself up and makes a screaming run for Vulture. Just as he is about to reach Vulture the gladiator spins around and sinks his axe through the top of Man Two’s head. The axe splits him nearly in half as it goes all the way through his sternum. Vulture pulls out his axe and struts around the arena as the crowd goes crazy. Blondie recovers. His nose is busted and his face is covered in blood. 562Please respect copyright.PENANA7LhP6kzeFT
ANNOUNCER562Please respect copyright.PENANAjUzwNUIyVk
And another one bites the dust! How long will this last treacherous bastard last against the mighty Vulture?562Please respect copyright.PENANAZHKk0QRzGz
Vulture and Blondie circle each other. It is clear that Blondie is no stranger to combat. He is quite calm. They each exchange swings of their weapons as the thunder crashes on. Blondie closes the gap and engages Vulture in a clinch. He uses his knees and starts slamming them into Vulture’s legs, which are only protected by some leather and some thigh pads. Vulture flinches and Blondie is able to throw him in a head and arm. Vulture crashes on the ground and Blondie comes down on top of him. Vulture’s motorcycle helmet flies off. They both scramble back to their weapons. Vulture swings again, but Blondie ducks underneath and slashes the gladiator’s thigh. Vulture screams and staggers backwards. 562Please respect copyright.PENANAohVe4t2hhL

GEMINI562Please respect copyright.PENANA3CXXNuDOWy
Interesting.562Please respect copyright.PENANAZHZaor77jv
Vulture’s wild swings come to a peak frenzy as he slams his axe into the wall. He tries to recover it, but by then it is too late. Blondie hacks the gladiator’s forearms off as he attempts to pull the axe free. Vulture screams in agony as Blondie cleaves half of his head off. The gladiator falls lifeless to the ground. The crowd sits in stunned silence. Gemini begins to clap and the rest of the crowd follows suit. Before long they are screaming and cheering as the thunder continues to deafen them. 562Please respect copyright.PENANAfB2rzEkTa8
