We pan to a building in District 17, Henry Gavel is standing out in front of everyone, runes casting his image into the sky.
Henry Gavel: I have an announcement to make
He exhales and then begins walking
Henry Gavel: The city has failed you, the system has failed, you may be doing the best you can, but we can do better together, the only way to build our future, is to build it together, join us, TEAR IT DOWN
People throughout the city begin chanting tear it down
The image dissipates and we cut to Necra, Oceane and Vendil, now caught in a nasty riot in District 13
Rioter: Tear It Down, Tear it Down
Necra: Maybe you shouldn’t
She falls over and more centennials move in, Gavel’s armored men still in the streets egging on the violence
Vendil: We gotta get out of here
Rioters: Tear It Down
Oceane: E’ll have to go through em
Begin District 13
End District 13
Oceane: We barely got out of this situation alive
Necra: Really because I could have kil--
Vendil: NO
Oceane: Let’s just try to group up with some other people
We pan back to District 31 which is still mostly tranquil
Iseri: How many times is some nut job gonna light this city on fire
Xen: If you don’t like it you can leave
Iseri: Nah, it’s part of the charm
Larkin: Who needs Charm when we are about to die
Xerxes: Some people like to die flashy, it’s better then a whimper
Helia: But I would think being alive is better
Thomas and Femmeo then go up to the group, having finished off some armed men
Thomas: Hey Xen
Xen: Thomas and Femmeo, are you here to join us
Femmeo: No, but we have a plan were going to challenge Wentus under the sewers to an ancient rite of combat so we become respected in the Centennials hierarchy and thus able to sway more away from him
Larkin: That’s a really good plan
Xen: Get on it
Thomas and Femmeo run into the Catacombs and drop down
Enter Catacombs 12
Femmeo: It’s a long way to Wentus
Thomas: Well let’s get there together
Begin Catacombs 12
Midway Through Catacombs 12
Thomas: I can’t believe he’s made our people into these dwellers reduced to pawns and minions to be sent into the meat grinder
Femmeo: We both know that’s not unbelievable, even the middle managers are assholes
Thomas: But he’s giving them up in service of some random person who he probably didn’t even know till he got his butt kicked
Femmeo: I guess that is a new low for him
Continue Catacombs 12
End Catacombs 12
Thomas: How long are these damm things
Femmeo: Never been down here, so I don’t know
Thomas: Guess were both blind
Enter Catacombs 11
Midway Through Catacombs 11, we pan into Perimeter District 2, with Husk, Falconer and Juni on the run, joined by a new person, Zaylee

Zaylee: How is this stone more important then the city destroying itself, why did you pick me from my patrol and just say go with me
Falconer: It is the key towards something bad
Zaylee: That is very ambiguous
Juni: Yeah I also don’t know what’s going on,
Falconer: Me neither if I’m being honest, but Oceane just said take the stone and run away
Husk: ????
Juni: And then Husk just took it and ran
Husk: What Stone?
Juni: His memory must be flaking out again
Zaylee: How long was in on Patrol, how did I miss everything
Falconer: I guess by not being with Oceane
Juni: Hm….
Husk: Oceane, she has a sword
Zaylee: Yes
Falconer: Uh Ok
Zaylee: So, you want to continue going
Husk: Yes
The four of them awkwardly shuffle
Begin Perimeter District 2
End Perimeter District 2
Zaylee: Where are we going, exactly
Juni: We don’t know
Zaylee: YOU DON’T KNOW
Falconer: I just told the falcon to fly off with it, we are just following him
Husk: Funny Falcon fly yiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
Juni: He’s clearly out of it
Falconer: Yeah…….
Zaylee: Well, let’s keep following mister falcon
Falconer: It’s a She
Begin Woods 1
Midway Through Woods 1
Falconer: She stopped
Zaylee: What do you mean
Falconer points to his falcon circling a cabin in the woods
Juni: Huh, something is there
Zaylee: Like what
Juni: Probably a dead deer or something
Falconer: But Hawks don’t circle their prey
Continue Woods 1
End Woods 1
Juni, Husk, Falconer and Zaylee enter through a clearing into an empty secluded cabin, we pan away back underground
Enter Catacombs 9, Thomas and Femmeo are still moving towards Wentus
Thomas: You think we both can take him
Femmeo: Wentus is one of the greatest centennial warriors in this area, but I think we got this
Thomas: (Sighs), I hope your right
Begin Catacombs 9
End Catacombs 9
Femmeo: This is it
They walk into a small arena where Wentus is, rallying up troops
Wentus: Tear it down
Centennial Crowd: TEAR IT DOWN
Thomas and Femmeo walk in opposite of Wentus and the crowd looks at them
Wentus: The Traitors have come to die
Thomas: You can put it that way,we challenge you to Cinkini.
Wentus: Cinkini, Combat until death, this will be fun, I hope you're century corps friends mourn you.
Fight Wentus in a no time limit fight
When Wentus is defeated
Femmeo: Hey look who won
Wentus struggles to get up
The Crowd begins cheering for Thomas and Femmeo
Thomas: So Wentus, I hope you’re friends mourn you
Wentus: I never imagined dying like this
Femmeo takes the ceremonial sword off the wall
Femmeo: It’s yours Thomas, finish the deed
Wentus (Coughing Up Blood): ……
Thomas: I think instead of killing him, we make an example of him
Wentus (Struggling to Breathe): Coward
Femmeo: Enough out of you
Femmeo cuts off Wentus’s arms with the Ceremonial sword, one by one, the crowd cheers
Wentus is hauled away to a prison cell, the crowd cheers for Thomas and Femmeo
We pan up to six people hiding in between buildings
Enter District 16
Cosma: Gavel’s Three Lieutenants are up ahead, they’re inciting all the violence
Hudson: Should I be surprised
Viridian: Eh not really, Gavel is an anarchist
Gladian: Focus
Atoll(Hurriedly): Yes Sir
Indica: Someone is eager
Gladian: YES I AM
Hudson: This situation feels weirdly chill
Viridian: This isn’t exactly new, but i have no idea why Gladian wants to go
Gladian: I’m going in
Atoll: SIR, THATS--
Gladian is knocked down by Two Armored Lieutenants
Indica: He can’t handle it
Cosma: That’s why we are here
Battle against the Lieutenants
When you win
Viridian: Do you want to kill them
Indica: Oh were killing them now
Hudson: What’s going on
Gladian: This is when it gets good (Smiles)
Indica cleaves the bodies in half as their blood freezes over
Hudson: That’s Hardcore
Indica: I mean, yeah, but…
Gladian’s expression wavering, Atoll looks at him intently
Sien: Tell her kid
Hudson: Nevermind Indica, it’s not my place to tell you how to do your job
Indica lightly smiler while Gladian’s expression flatlines
Sien: You really are worthless
Viridian: The other one got away
Cosma: Well then
More Armored Men come at them but a sweeping gale comes down on them and sticks are thrown into their side, Atlantic comes down from the roof
Atlantic: Hey guys
Atoll: Good entrance
Atlantic: I wasn’t practicing
Gladian: It doesn’t matter, let’s go
Hudson, Indica and Atoll all look at each other before moving
Begin District 16
End Distirct 16
Atlantic: He turned the corner
Cosma: Let’s get the lieutenant
Fight the other lieutenant
After you win
Indica freezes the armor off the lieutenant and then kicks him through 6 crates and rips his head off with her bare hands and leaves it on the ground
Hudson: It surely is effective
Atlantic: I will pretend i didn’t see that
Gladian: It looks like we finally derailed the enemy, now lets split up and go home
Atoll: But Gladian…I like being with others
Indica: Yeah Gladian don’t hog Atoll all to yourself
Gladian: (Low Grumbling)
Then the CIty Hall explodes and Gavel plants his flag in the streets
Cosma: Holy Shit guys we need to get there
We pan back to Xen, Iseri, Xerxes, Helia and Larkin helping citizens arm themselves and take battle stations in their homes
Xen: Iseri, are we finally out of weapons to hand out
Iseri: Yes, I got to say, it’s good your staying to help the little guys
Xen: There is more to guild life then the hero stuff, it’s what you forgot when you left
Iseri: So I did
Xerxes: I wasn’t aware you could show such kindness
Larkin: It’s just what we do
Helia: I honestly prefer it more to the hero stuff
Xerxes: Are you sure, you wanted to go ham on Solar Scion when she appeared
Helia: Uh…
Xerxes: It’s whatever.
Xen: It is nice to work with you again Iseri
Iseri: The feeling is mutual
Thomas and Femmeo crawl back out of the Catacombs, and Centennials start aiding regular people.
