CUT TO: DOWNTOWN BEDROCK
EXT. DOWNTOWN BEDROCK - NIGHT
SHADE PATROLS AROUND WHILE LOOKING FOR HADASSAH AND FINDS THE TRAIL OF DESTRUCTION LEFT BY THE GOLEM.
[Shade]
I suppose the best thing about the Golem is that it's simple enough not to understand that it left breadcrumbs behind. Now the only question is can I get to them before it's too late?
SHADE CATCHES UP TO WHERE THE GOLEM IS AND SEES IT WALKING INTO A PARKING GARAGE.
[Shade]
Alright, I can definitely work with this.
SHADE GOES TO THE PARKING GARAGE, SINKS ONTO THE SIDE OF IT AND SCALES UP THE FLOORS UNTIL HE SEES HADASSAH. SHADE THEN JUMPS ONTO THE FLOOR SHE IS ON AND BEGINS TO WALK TOWARDS HER.
[Hadassah]
Shade? Stay back! You're in danger!
[Shade]
I can handle the dumb pottery.
SUDDENLY THE GOLEM PUNCHES UP THROUGH THE FLOOR AND GRABS SHADE BY ONE OF HIS FEET. THE GOLEM THEN DRAGS SHADE DOWN TO WHERE HE IS AND THROWS HIM BACK ACROSS THE PARKING GARAGE. SHADE TUMBLES ACROSS THE GROUND UNTIL HE LANDS NEAR SOME RAILING AND USES IT TO STAND UP. THE GOLEM THEN TRIES TO RAM SHADE BUT HE JUMPS OVER THE GOLEM, FLIPS, AND KICKS THE GOLEM IN THE BACK TO GIVE IT ADDITIONAL FORCE WHILE IT TUMBLES OFF THE SIDE OF THE PARKING GARAGE. AS THE GOLEM FALLS TO THE GROUND IT FLIPS AROUND IN THE AIR SO THAT IT LANDS ON ITS FEET THEN TURNS BACK TO WHERE SHADE SHOULD BE AND SHOOTS ENERGY BEAMS FROM ITS EYES. SHADE HAVING GOTTEN BACK TO THE FLOOR WHERE HADASSAH IS, WALKS OVER TO HER.
[Shade]
How is this thing tracking you?
[Hadassah]
It can see the aura of living things. It will always know where I am.
[Shade]
Do you know anything else about it?
[Hadassah]
I won't have any time to tell you here.
THE GOLEM JUMPS UP TO THE FLOOR WHERE SHADE AND HADASSAH ARE AND BEGINS TO RUN AT THEM.
[Shade]
Get up to the top floor, I'll hold it off.
[Hadassah]
What's on the top floor?
[Shade]
Not him.
HADASSAH STARTS TO THE STAIRS AND SHADE TURNS TO DODGE THE GOLEM AS IT ATTEMPTS TO HAMMER PUNCH HIM. SHADE THEN JUMPS INTO THE AIR, SPINS AROUND, AND KICKS THE GOLEM ACROSS THE FACE WITH HIS HEEL. THE GOLEM UNPHASED THEN PUNCHES SHADE THROUGH THE AIR AND HE LANDS ON TOP OF A COMPANY VEHICLE. SHADE JUMPS OUT OF THE WAY JUST IN TIME AS THE GOLEM TRIES TO ATTACK AGAIN BY HAMMER PUNCHING AND FALLS ONTO THE FLOOR SHADE THEN THROWS THE VAN AT THE GOLEM WHO KNOCKS IT OUT OF THE WAY AND SHOOTS ENERGY BEAMS FROM ITS EYES. SHADE SINKS ONTO THE GROUND AT THE LAST SECOND EVADING THE ATTACK THEN SCALES TO THE ROOF AND THE GOLEM CONTINUES TO TRY AND SHOOT HIM WITH ITS ENERGY BEAMS. SHADE MOVES AROUND AND WHEN HE GETS A CERTAIN DISTANCE AWAY THE GOLEM TURNS INVISIBLE.
[Shade]
Don't think that I can't see you.
SHADE NOTICES THE GOLEM WALKING TOWARDS HIM AND JUMPS DOWN FROM THE CEILING JUST AS IT PUNCHES WHERE HE WAS. SHADE THEN PUNCHES THE GOLEM IN THE STOMACH AREA AS HARD AS HE CAN PUTTING A SMALL POTHOLE IN ITS STOMACH AND SENDING IT SKIDDING BACK ACROSS THE GROUND. SHADE THEN RUBS HIS FIST AND THE GOLEM LOOKS AT THE DAMAGE THAT IT'S TAKEN.
