Guardians of the Realms S5

Worthy

Elijah looks down at Julia as he holds her hand while she was being put on a stretcher going to a ship. Josh walks up next to him.

Elijah:These ships are taking them to the next town right?

Josh:Yeah, they've already made preparations for everyone. Only problem is space to put people....

Elijah:They'll just have to do what they can.

Josh:For how long?

Elijah continues to look at Julia.

Elijah:Until I can protect everyone.

He lets go of the girl's hand and lets the paramedics carry her off to the ships. The boy faces Josh.

Elijah:Go with the ships and keep everything in check. Amaya and Mikey will stay with me.

Josh:I understand. Don't get lost now.

Elijah:I won't.

Josh steps onto the ship as it starts to fly off. Elijah watches as the ships fly off into the distance then walks off.

On the Ship

Josh walks through the docks as he hears a lot of commotion going on. He gets to a big room and sees a group of people surrounding 5 old people in a circle.

Josh:Oh great. It begins.

Elder #3:He can't do it.

Elder #2:Who's idea was it to let a kid be in charge of a Realm?

Elder #5:We should've never let him lead us. Just look where it got us.

Elder #1:And now we must move homes just cause he couldn't protect the people.

Elder #4:It's time for a new Capo!
More comments about Elijah continue among the 5 and the spectators listen closely.

Josh:Are you old bags done?

The 5 stop and stare and Josh.

Josh:You bad-mouthing our Capo isn't gonna get anything done. We're trying to move forward not backward. And if you truly think he doesn't know what he's doing you're intelligence has aged along with you. No civilian died, did they?

The room stays silent.

Josh:Then he's doing his job just fine protecting us.

Everyone starts murmuring.

Elder #2:But he couldn't protect his own girlfriend.

Everything goes silent again.

Josh:Julia was fighting while you guys were busy hiding. Don't try to make her efforts pointless. You guys can continue to think how you want, but at the end of the day the Capo and Julia are big factors in the reason as to why you guys are alive right now. And what you do with what they've given you is up to you.

Josh walks off. He gets to the top deck and stares off into the sky.

Josh:You better have a plan, Elijah.

Back in Elijah's library

Mikey and Amaya walk into the room and see Elijah looking through books.

Amaya:How are things-

A wave of sand carrying books passes the two.

Amaya:Looking?

Elijah:Things are going just fine Amaya... Just found out all these books are worthless for the current situation at hand.

Mikey:He might've lost it a bit.
