CUT TO: DOWNTOWN DISTRICT
EXT. DOWNTOWN - NIGHT
WHILE PATROLLING, SHADE SEES LISSOM HEADING TOWARDS THE SIMMONS BUILDING. SHADE JUMPS OFF THE BUILDING HE'S ON, GLIDES OVER TO WHERE LISSOM IS, AND TACKLES HIM ON THE ROOF THAT HE IS ON. SHADE THEN HOLDS LISSOM DOWN WITH BOTH OF HIS ARMS IN THE AIR AND A KNEE IN HIS BACK.
[Lissom]
Ooof!
[Shade]
I guess some people just don't learn huh?
[Lissom]
Are you talking about you? You lost that last fight remember?
[Shade]
I'm not losing this one!
[Lissom]
That's what you think!
LISSOM STRETCHES HIS LEG AROUND GRABBING ONTO SHADE BY HIS WAIST THEN PULLS REMOVING SHADE FROM HIM BACK. LISSOM THEN TRIES TO JUMP ONTO SHADE BUT HE SINKS ONTO THE GROUND EVADE THE ATTEMPTED ATTACK.
[Lissom]
Hey, no fair!
SHADE STANDS UP ACROSS THE ROOF AND LISSOM PULLS OUT HIS KNIFE.
[Lissom]
I didn't want things to come to this but I guess it can't be helped!
LISSOM RUNS AT SHADE AND TRIES TO STAB HIM BUT SHADE DODGES THE ATTACK, GRABS LISSOM BY THE ARM THAT HAS THE KNIFE IN IT AND PULLS HIM IN KNEEING LISSOM IN THE SIDE JAW.
[Lissom]
Yow!
LISSOM THEN PUNCHES SHADE IN THE LEG WHERE HE STABBED HIM AND WHEN SHADE STAGGERS IN PAIN LISSOM ATTEMPTS TO STAB HIM AGAIN. SHADE SHOOTS A SANDCLOT AT LISSOM'S HAND KNOCKING THE KNIFE OUT OF IT AND PUNCHES LISSOM IN THE CHEST. LISSOM STUMBLES FORWARD ACROSS THE ROOF, PLANTS HIS FOOT FARTHEST AWAY FROM SHADE THEN JUMPS OFF OF IT ATTEMPTING TO KICK SHADE. SHADE HOWEVER GRABS LISSOM'S LEG AND SLAMS HIM INTO THE SIDE OF AN AIR CONDITIONING UNIT.
[Lissom]
You're a real piece of work you know that?
[Shade]
Shut up.
SHADE CREATES A CHAIN AND USES IT TO WRAP LISSOM UP.
[Lissom]
Ooh, chains. Are you feeling licentious?
[Shade]
What did I tell you about talking to me like that?
ONCE SHADE IS SURE HE HAS LISSOM TIED UP TIGHT HE PROPS HIM UP AGAINST THE AIR CONDITIONING UNIT.
[Lissom]
What's all this about?
[Shade]
We need to have a little chat.
SHADE SQUATS DOWN BESIDE LISSOM WHO STRUGGLES.
[Shade]
You're through spying on Liliana.
[Lissom]
Wait, don't tell me. You got to the people who hired me and that's why they chickened out. I bet you were thinking that it was going to be just that easy huh? I've got a bone to pick with little Liliana.
[Shade]
Well, you should drop it before I chuck you off this roof.
[Lissom]
