Ray- *in head* It’s nice here *smiling*

(Then some “Conduct” guards barge in and take Rex’s dad away)

Rex’s Mom- *panicked and scared* Where are you taking him *tugging against the guards*

(guard hits her away, Rex goes and punches the guard)

Rex- Don’t you touch my mother like that

(He gets kick in the face)

Guard- Since you seem to care for him so much why don’t we take you both with him

(The guards take both Rex and his parents and leave off in a prisoners car)

Carla- No no come back, *starts to cry* Damn that “Vagrant” If it weren’t for him none this would have happened, damn him, damn him

(Ray feels anger and remorse for what just happened)

Ray- *a little quiet* Don’t worry I’ll try to set things right *leaves in a flash*

(He then goes home suits up in his “Vagrant” uniform he picks up his staff and looks at it for a bit)

Ray- You better listen this time

Ray- *in head* WHEN THE FUCK DID HE!?!?

(King Windholm then uses his other hand to knock out Ray)

(King Windholm goes for the staff)

King Windholm- And I’ll take that

(He’s immediately weighed down by it but can still hold it enough to make off with it)

Both S.G. Lerena and S.G. William- Yes father?

King Windholm- Take him to the Square of the Slums I’d like make an example of him

Both S.G. Lerena and S.G. William- Yes father

S.G. William- Looks like we finally caught your dumbass how does it feel to know your life is over

S.G. Lerena- He’s knocked out William he can’t hear you

S.G. William- Just incase he’s having a dream I’d like to poison it into a nightmare

(The screen it black but has a silhouette of Ray falling through it)

?- I don’t know

?- Looks so weird I wonder how it got like that

?- I've seen that bastard around

?- Fuckin jackass was doing that shit under our noses

(hearing the noise of a crowd, he then starts to wake up)

Ray- *in head* Wha- Where am I?

King Windholm- *shouting* THIS IS THE RELENTLESS “VAGRANT” THAT HAS BEEN ROAMING THE STREETS STEALING GOODS FROM OUR FOOD STORAGE

(Ray realizes he’s chained to the ground with a mask covering his face)

Ray- *in head/shocked* Huh, why am I here *the memories of last night come flooding in and he realizes his situation* Fuck fuck fuck fuck, I got caught now whats gonna happen

King Windholm- *shouting* HE EVEN TRIED TO STEAL A SACRED ITEM BUT HE HAS ALSO GIVEN YOU GREAT SUFFERING I DIDN’T WANT TO INFORCE MORE POLICE BUT I HAD TO BECAUSE OF THIS INDIVIDUAL SO WHAT DO YOU THINK IS THE PROPER SEND OFF FOR HIM

(Ray looks around the crowd and spots Charmi who looks away from him)

Ray- *in head/tearing up* C’mon Charmi

(Ray then looks around for Rex and spots him but so does King Windholm)

King Windholm- You over there, I heard you were one of the people the “Vagrant” put in danger last night and have told me he was with you when you were taken so I ask do you know him personally

Rex- *hesitant* Y…Yes

King Windholm- *smiles* Then what do you think: Life or Death?

(Ray looks at Rex then vice-versa)

Ray- *tearing/angry/sad/in head*Don’t do it please

Rex- *eyes shadowed by hair* Death

(This sends a cold shiver down Ray’s spine)

King Windholm- So, all in agreement with that, raise your hand

(The entire crowd raises their hand, Ray’s spirit gets broken, some of the crowd starts yelling)

Crowd person 1- My father died because of you!

Crowd person 2- So was my Husband!

Entire Crowd- KILL HIM, KILL HIM, KILL HIM, KILL HIM!!!!

(Ends on a side view of King Windholm looking down at a chained up and defeated Ray while the crowd in the back repeats his death sentence)
