(On the boat)

 

Nathan: You know, You're really fearless. Going against your mother's wishes. 

 

Malinda: Enough of that. Right now, We have something more important to worry about.....We have to prevent my dad from waging a war on the entire universe. 

 

Nathan: Yeah. By the way, How will you be able to identify your father if you see him? 

 

Malinda: Well... He's a vampire, That's a very noticeable hint. 

 

Nathan: Oh yeah, Good thinking. Wait, wait, wait... 

 

Malinda: What's the matter? 

 

Nathan: What about the weapons that'll allow you to defeat him? 

 

Malinda: (she looks around in realization) Oh no, I forgot about that, They must still be with Nyla, Aurastine and Tamara. 

 

Nathan: So how're you gonna... 

 

(Before he completes his sentence, Malinda jumps into the river and swiftly swims back to the riverbank, She comes out of the water and goes to the bush where she hid Nyla, Tamara and Aurastine. She then takes an armor, a sword and a pair of boots) 

 

Nathan: (he drives the boat back to the riverbank) What the hell....You could've just turned the boat around. 

 

Malinda: I didn't see a need for that and besides, I've gotten what I need. Let's go. 

 

(She enters the boat and they take off once more)

 

Nathan: I'm sorry about the death of your friend. 

 

Malinda: (sniffles) Alina was more than a friend to me, She was a sister. She was always there for me when I needed her. (sighs) Once I get you back, I'll find my father and Philomena and I'll make sure they pay for what they've done. 

 

Nathan: You know what? I'm going to help you in your mission.  

 

Malinda: (smiles) Nice idea. We make a good teamup. 

 

(Malinda puts on the armor and boots then she uses her cloak to cover herself)

 

(Meanwhile)

(Philomena takes Dracula to a warehouse)

 

Philomena: The dagger is hidden somewhere in this warehouse, The people of the outside world thought of it as a relic and kept it here. 

 

Dracula: You're sure about this? 

 

Philomena: Yes. I usually sneak into the outside world, I know most of what happens here. But no one in Olympia ever knew. 

 

Dracula: (smirks) That's surreptitious. Who would've thought you would've been the one to free me? 

 

Philomena: The key is to be very subtle, So no one can predict your next actions. 

 

Dracula: I like how you think... You see, When I become the Supreme Overlord, I'll need someone to be by my side, A queen. (He glares at Philomena) Someone cunning, calculating, understandable.... 

 

(Dracula pecks Philomena on the cheek) 

 

Philomena: And what about your wife, Queen Hepthia? 

 

Dracula: She doesn't matter to me anymore, None of my family do. 

 

Philomena: Even your daughter, Malinda? 

 

Dracula: Like I said, None of them do. When I regain my powers, One of the first things I'll do is to reduce Olympia to dust! (he looks around the warehouse) Now let's find that dagger. 

 

(Meanwhile)

(Malinda and Nathan cross the borders of Olympia)

 

Nathan: We're here. Welcome to America. 

 

Malinda: (glances around) Wow. It's beautiful! It's even better than I imagined. 

 

Nathan: Come on, Let me take you to my favorite bar. We should enjoy ourselves before going into battle. 

 

Malinda: If you say so. 

 

(At the bar)

 

Nathan: This is it. Brigg's bar. 

 

Malinda: What's a bar? 

 

Nathan: Well, It's just a place where people come to drink and have fun. (To the bartender) Two bottles of soda. 

 

Bartender: That'll be $4

 

(Nathan pays him and collects the soda)

 

Nathan: (he hands her a soda bottle)

 

Malinda: What's a soda? 

 

Nathan: You ask too many questions, sweetheart. Just drink! 

 

Malinda: (she opens it and sips) Tastes....good 

 

Nathan: Yeah, Look around...You see people drinking and dancing, This place is for refreshments. 

 

(While Malinda looks around, Nathan takes out a sleeping pill from his satchel and drops it in Malinda's drink)

 

Malinda: (she turns back to look at Nathan) Wow, We don't have bars in Olympia. 

 

Nathan: Stop talking and finish your soda. 

 

Malinda: Do you think I'm stupid? You wanted me to look around so you could drop a pill in my soda... You wanted to drug me

 

Nathan: What? 

 

Malinda: Don't even try to deny it, It'll only make you look dumb. I trusted you and you tried to drug me? That was pretty low, I hope you're proud of yourself. 

 

(Malinda angrily leaves the bar and Nathan follows her)

 

Nathan: Malinda wait, I can explain... 

 

(Malinda enters an alley and Nathan follows her )

 

Malinda: Explain what? You tried to get me unconscious, So you could have your way with me? 

 

Nathan: Malinda, It's not that... 

 

(Nathan notices two thugs approaching them)

 

Nathan: Oh shit... 

 

Malinda: Oh yes! I knew exactly what you wanted to do and do not use that "Oh shit" around me! 

 

(Just then, They are surrounded by three more thugs) 

 

Thug 1: Good evening folks, Sorry to bother you but we're collecting stupidity fines. (To Nathan) Bringing a date into a neighborhood this dangerous and this late? That's fucking stupid. 

 

Malinda: (confused, To Nathan) Are they robbing us? 

 

Nathan: Yes, Apparently. (To the thugs) Umm, It seems like I have about $100 in my wallet. (He takes out his wallet and hands it to them) Here, Use it to buy yourselves some ice cream coupons or something. 

 

Malinda: (she collects the wallet from Nathan) Give them nothing. 

 

Thug 1: (he takes out a gun and points it at them) Hand over the wallet. Now! 

 

Malinda: (to the thug) No, We're gonna hold on to it. But there is something I want from you.... I want an apology for hassling us. 

 

Thug 1: You must be damn crazy (he cocks his gun) I'm not gonna say it again, Hand over the wallet. 

 

Nathan: (he whispers to Malinda) Malinda, Let's just give him the wallet to avoid any harm. He has a gun and someone could get hurt. 

 

Malinda: (smirks) Maybe I want someone to get hurt... 

 

(The thug furiously shoots at her but she deflects the bullet with her shield) 

 

Thug 1: What the hell.... 

 

(He starts shooting continuously at her and Malinda keeps on deflecting the bullets and the bullets hit his fellow goons. Malinda then walks to him and twists his arm then lifts him up from the ground by the throat) 

 

Malinda: Well.... 

 

Thug 1: (choking ) I'm sorry

 

Malinda: (smiles) Apology accepted. 

 

(She drops him back on the ground and he runs off, leaving behind his phone)

 

Malinda: (she stares at his phone) What is that? 

 

Nathan: A mobile phone. (he takes the phone) And he has a message, It's from one of his accomplices. 

 

Malinda: Read it out loud. 

 

Nathan: It says.... (reads) "Boss, You won't believe this. While we were robbing Chen's warehouse, We spotted a vampire and a woman carrying a spear.... You need to head over here, Quickly" (To Malinda) Looks like we've found your father.
