INT. HERO HEADQUARTERS, BIGG CITY
The basement is locked, and terrifying sounds are coming from the inside.
There are shouts and crashes, sounds of a horrible fight.
JEEP BOY looks at the trap door, and looks into the corner.
JEEP BOY
Let’s just check on them. Please!
He receives no response.
Jeep Boy shakes his head in disgust and storms out, leaving headquarters.
EXT. HERO HEADQUARTERS, BIGG CITY
On the sidewalk, Jeep Boy looks around, takes out his phone, and makes a call.
JEEP BOY
We’ve got a problem.
GENIUS
What is it?
GENIUS has suddenly appeared behind him.
Jeep Boy whirls around with heart palpitations.
JEEP BOY
Don’t do that!
GENIUS
You called a ninja; what do you expect?
JEEP BOY
You’re not supposed to be very good at it.
GENIUS
I’ve been practicing. What’s going on?
Jeep Boy shakes his head.
JEEP BOY
It’s bad.
INT. HERO HEADQUARTERS, BIGG CITY
Three days ago.
GUN GIRL is reading a letter.
GUN GIRL
I don’t believe this!
QUEEN CHERYL hears and comes over.
QUEEN CHERYL
What?
GUN GIRL
This new health plan; they’re talking about penalties for smokers.
QUEEN CHERYL
That’s more than half the team!
GUN GIRL
I know! They can pry my lighter from my cold dead hands.
Gun Girl pulls out a pack right there, but pauses.
QUEEN CHERYL
Although...
GUN GIRL
I know.
QUEEN CHERYL
We’ve totally been meaning to. Like if I wanted to start singing again...
GUN GIRL
Or if I wanted to not get pneumonia...
QUEEN CHERYL
Should we try?
CUT TO:
INT. BASEMENT
Gun Girl and Queen Cheryl enter through the trap door.
This used to be the Vampire’s lair, before she got reckless and went out in daylight. No one has been there since.
GUN GIRL
