CUT TO: DOWNTOWN DISTRICT
EXT. CONVENIENCE STORE - NIGHT
A GROUP OF ROBBERS DESTROY A WINDOW OF A CONVENIENCE STORE AND BEGIN TAKING ANYTHING THAT THEY CAN GET THEIR HANDS ON.
[Robber#1]
Get everything that you can!
[Robber#2]
No duh! We're robbing the place what else would we be doing?
ONE OF THE ROBBERS STOPS TO LOOK AT A COUPLE OF ADULT MAGAZINES.
[Robber#3]
Ooh la, la!
ROBBER#4 RUNS PAST ROBBER#3 AND SMACKS HIM IN THE ARM.
[Robber#4]
Get it to go, dumbass! We're on a time crunch.
[Robber#3]
We don't even know if Shade is gonna show up. He's probably got other things to do.
SHADE STANDS UP BEHIND ROBBER#3.
[Shade]
You wish that I was that busy.
SHADE GRABS ROBBER#3 AND THROWS HIM BACK THROUGH THE AIR. ROBBER#3 SLAMS AGAINST A WALL BEFORE FALLING TO THE GROUND. ROBBER#2 ROUNDS THE CORNER TO SEE SHADE STANDING IN THE AISLE.
[Robber#2]
Damn it, don't you have a life?
[Shade]
I could get a life if you got a job!
ROBBER#2 TAKES OUT TWO UZI AND BEGINS SHOOTING AT SHADE. SHADE FLASH STEPS BEHIND ROBBER#2 BEFORE HE NOTICES THAT SHADE HAS MOVED AT ALL. AFTER EMPTYING THE CLIPS OF HIS UZI ROBBER#2 LOOKS AROUND SEEING NO TRACE OF SHADE ANYWHERE.
[Robber#2]
Where the hell is he? Did I get him?
SHADE TAPS ROBBER#2 ON THE SHOULDER AS HE WALKS PARALLEL TO HIM ARRIVING ON HIS SIDE.
[Shade]
Now, your first mistake was thinking that was gonna work!
SHADE PUNCHES ROBBER#2 IN THE FACE AND HE FALLS ONTO SOME SHELVES. SHADE THEN SHOOTS A SAND CLOT AT ROBBER#1 WHO'S ATTEMPTING TO PULL HIS GUN. SHADE HITS ROBBER#1 IN THE FACE WITH THE SAND CLOT WHICH KNOCKS HIM OUT THEN TURNS HIS ATTENTION TO THE ROBBER WHO'S NEAR THE FRONT ENTRANCE OF THE CONVENIENCE STORE.
[Shade]
And then there was one.
[Robber#3]
You'll never take me alive.
AS ROBBER#3 BEGINS TO LEAVE THE CONVENIENCE STORE SHADE HAS A SHADOW CLONE APPREHEND HIM. THE SHADOW CLONE THEN BEGINS TO DRAG ROBBER#3 OVER TO WHERE SHADE IS.
[Shade]
Now, come on bud, you can't leave just yet. The nice policemen are going to get a picture of you to let everybody know what a piece of shit you are.
ROBBER#3 GETS FREE OF THE SHADOW CLONE AND STARTS TO PULL OUT HIS PISTOL WHEN SHADE SNATCHES IT AWAY FROM HIM. SHADE DESTROYS THE GUN THEN BLOCKS AN ATTACK FROM ROBBER#3.
[Shade]
Don't worry, everyone is anxious on picture day. You'll just need to make sure they give you a second to fix your hair.
[Robber#3]
Shut up!
SHADE DODGES AN ATTACK FROM ROBBER#3 THEN KICKS HIM BEHIND ONE OF HIS LEGS. SHADE THEN GRABS THE ROBBER PUTTING HIM INTO A CHOKEHOLD UNTIL HE PASSES OUT. SHADE THEN GATHERS UP ALL OF THE ROBBERS, WRAPS THEM UP IN CHAINS, AND MAKES SURE THAT THE SECURITY CAMERAS GET A GOOD SHOT OF THEM.
