Act 1[]

EXT – DOWNTOWN, OUTSIDE MEDICI WAREHOUSE

One year ago…

BRAIN DRAIN (Radio)

Stage One of the raid is underway.
LAST HOPE, are you in position? You must secure those refugees!

VALENTINE

Targets sighted.
We should move in now while we have surprise on our side.

CHRISTMAS

I agree, Val, but YOU don't call the shots around here.
Hallow, once we get the greenlight, proceed inside with Valentine.

BRAIN DRAIN (Radio)

You're all cleared for entry. But remember, this is a stealth operation.
The word of the day is 'silence.'

END OF INTRODUCTION

NODE 1

HALLOW

We're in. I count four refugees and three hostiles. Perfect!
I've got a new Trick that's just itching for a clinical trial…

VALENTINE

Hmph. I know how your "trials" tend to turn out.
Let's stick to the plan.
Sedate them - keep things quiet.

HALLOW

Bah. You're beginning to sound a lot like Christmas.
Y'know, just 'cause you're born on the date doesn't mean you get the gig.

VALENTINE

Stay focused, and save your Tricks for the Medici thugs.

(fight proceeds)

END OF NODE 1

NODE 2

Meanwhile…

EASTER

Good Friday! Look at 'em all!
There are too many. We can't take them out one at a time…

PATTY

I say we dive in an' test our luck!
Let's give these snakes what's comin' to 'em!

VALENTINE

Agreed - a surprise attack will spread panic.
We can use the chaos to our advantage.

PATTY

Oh ho, look who it is! Now lil' miss overachiever is working our shift too?
Where's Hallow?

VALENTINE

Putting the refugees to bed early. You ready to make the rounds?

EASTER

Very well.
They'll regret putting all their eggs in one basket!

(fight proceeds)

END OF NODE 2

BOSS NODE

CHRISTMAS

I could hear your ambition from two rooms away, Valentine. Looking to add to your coal collection this year?
Get up here and stay quiet.

VALENTINE

Everyone else has secured their refugees.
I just wanted to scrub in to help triage.

CHRISTMAS

How generous.
I've checked it twice, and there are only two hostiles left on my list.
Care to wrap them up for me?

VALENTINE

…you're the boss.

(fight proceeds)

CHRISTMAS

How do the refugees look?

VALENTINE

Early tests are all coming back positive.
…except for one little girl. Severe eye damage and massive injuries to the rest of her body.

PATRICIA

CHRISTMAS

I'll have a look at her.
Good work, Val.

VALENTINE

Of course. I'll continue to review the test results for the other…
Hmm… what's this? Another refugee?
No… someone else…

CHRISTMAS

See to it.
I'll go check in on the others.

CAROL

*INITIATING SECURE LAB ZERO LINE - CODE 36E-25-40*

VALENTINE

Brain Drain, there's a girl here - a passer-by caught in the crossfire.
She's not a refugee, but her blood matches what we're looking for.

BRAIN DRAIN (Radio)

Excellent, she will suffice.
Bring her back to Lab Zero at once.

VALENTINE

She's just a young girl.
I don't think she's cut out for this.

BRAIN DRAIN (Radio)

Surely I needn't remind you that time is not on our side.
Finding someone compatible for the project is too rare an occurrence for us to be picky.
The risks outweigh your… discomfort.
This is for the greater good.

*CLOSING SECURED LINE*

BRAIN DRAIN (Radio)

The Last Hope have successfully secured the refugees.
ASG Agents, you are approved for entry. Feel free to dramatically disagree with anyone who gets in your way.

Act 2[]

INT – ANTI-SKULLGIRL LABS

Present Day…

CHRISTMAS

Keep your skills and instruments sharp, ladies.
The next Skullgirl may appear any day now. We must keep training and stay vigilant - we'll stay up all night if we have to.
Now, everyone pair up!

HALLOW

Anyone seen Valentine?
I had a Treat that I wanted to try on her…

PATTY

Ye can train with the rest of us fer once, Hallow.
Valentine's got enough ego to fight three o' herself.

EASTER

Such little faith! I bet she'd say it's more like ten.

CHRISTMAS

Hmph. One day she'll learn that there is more to a successful surgery than merely having the sharpest scalpel.
We are a team - our success depends on us being a cohesive unit.

END OF INTRODUCTION

NODE 1

VALENTINE

Hey everyone, sorry I'm--
…what's everybody looking at?
You weren't waiting for me, were you?

PATTY

Out with it! What sorta "late night activities" were ye up to this time, Val?
Ah, lemme guess - a pint too many? Aye, has "the fear" in her I bet!
No worries lass, strong cuppa tea and ye'll be right as rain.

CHRISTMAS

QUIET.
The seven year cycle has started again, Valentine. As you know, we're due for a confrontation at ANY moment.
We need to be able to depend on you.

VALENTINE

Understood. I'm ready.

CHRISTMAS

Indeed? Prove it then.
Patty?

PATTY

Aye, let's see how lucky y'are!
Show ol' Pattycakes whacha got!

END OF NODE 1

NODE 2

PATTY

Ach, she's fighting somethin' fierce today!
I'm right knackered out. Ye owe me a pint fer making me look bad!

CHRISTMAS

Patty, if your punches were as fast as your mouth, you might have won.
More focus, less banter.

VALENTINE

Right. Well then, I'll jus-

CHRISTMAS

Easter, you're up.

EASTER

Don't worry, Valentine.
I'll make it quick. Before you know it, you'll rise again - good as new!

END OF NODE 2

BOSS NODE

CHRISTMAS

Form, Easter! Remember your form!
Valentine was able to capitalize on your sloppiness.

VALENTINE

Sometimes to get the job done, you have to break a few eggs.
Now, if we're done--

HALLOW

Like hell we are! DIBS.

VALENTINE

Et tu, Hallow?

HALLOW

Hush, Val - it's time for your "shots."

VALENTINE

Why do you always do that "quotes" thing, it's creepy!

HALLOW

If you like that, you're gonna love the "sexy side effects"!

VALENTINE

What?! Stop that!

HALLOW

Now don't squirm!
Well, OK - just a little…

(fight proceeds)

HALLOW

BOOO! I didn't even get to stick you with my latest Trick!

VALENTINE

So, Christmas - no notes for me from your infamous lists?
Come on, I'm ready for whatever you've got.

CHRISTMAS

Hmph, lucky for you, I'm in a giving mood.
Prepare yourself!

EASTER

WAIT! Everyone, hold it!
Report just came in about a huge Theonite spike in No Man's Land!

HALLOW

That must mean…

VALENTINE

…the Skullgirl.
She's back.

CHRISTMAS

Good news for us that she has been spotted outside the country.
This is what we've been training for, girls!
Last Hope, prepare to move out!
CLEAR!

Act 3[]

EXT – NO MAN'S LAND

CHRISTMAS

I have the Skullgirl in my sights, but something's wrong…

EASTER

Should I have brought more body bags?

CHRISTMAS

No, quite the opposite.
Preliminary scans suggested two targets here. I only see one.

VALENTINE

Sounds like the perfect time to perform a sneak attack.

CHRISTMAS

Not without my order - I prescribe caution.
We wait for the ASG soldiers to arrive so we can hit her full force.

VALENTINE

Look at her - she's just a little girl. We should strike NOW before she grows more powerful!
We're looking at a golden opportunity to SAVE lives, and you're just going to stand by without so much as a checkup?

CHRISTMAS

This isn't any patient, Val. This is the Skullgirl - we exercise EXTREME caution.
You WILL follow my orders, or else.

PATTY

Ahh, save it for the Skullgirl you two.
Plenty of time to kiss and make up later! HAH!

HALLOW

  • SIGH*. Let me know when you two are done driving each other batty.

END OF INTRODUCTION

NODE 1

HALLOW

This is serious stuff, we need to have each other's back.
Like how Easter has been helping me load my syringes!

EASTER

Eh? What are you talking about?
I told you I'd never touch those creepy things.

HALLOW

Wait, if that wasn't you… then who-

(DOUBLE appears before The Last Hope)

DOUBLE

Fools…

PATTY

Holy shamrocks!

VALENTINE

The Shapeshifter!

CHRISTMAS

Last Hope ASSEMBLE!
This is it! Remember your training!

(fight proceeds)

END OF NODE 1

NODE 2

DOUBLE

Looks like the trick… is on YOU!

HALLOW

Urk!
N-no… worse than… getting a… toothbrush…
Urh… ughh….

(HALLOW collapses)

DOUBLE

Such simple creatures.
Your fate is sealed. You will not leave this place.

VALENTINE

Hal? HAL!!!

(VALENTINE rushes towards a dying HALLOW and cradles her in her final moments)

HALLOW

Val… t-take my syringes… put 'em to good use.

VALENTINE

You know I will. It… it was a Treat to fight alongside you.
Side effects and all…
I won't let you down, Hal.

(fight proceeds)

END OF NODE 2

NODE 3

DOUBLE

Now, which one of you is ne-

EASTER

HAH! Take that, monster.
Shapeshift all you want inside that bodybag.

CHRISTMAS

Good work, Easter. Hallow's death was not in vain.
Quickly! While she is incapacitated let's retreat and regroup.

MARIE (THE SKULLGIRL)

I won't let you get away.
Death calls for you.
Embrace it.

SKELETON

  • chattering teeth*

EASTER

These things are multiplying like rabbits!

VALENTINE

We're surrounded!

CHRISTMAS

Damn… we'll have to fight her head on.

PATTY

BAH! No more mopin' from the LOT of yeh!
The Skullgirl is just a bony wee lass! Allow me IV staff ta sweep these piles o' bones to DUST!

(fight proceeds)

END OF NODE 3

NODE 4

PATTY

Is that all ye've got?!
If you're lookin' for gold at the end of THIS painbow, yer in for a mighty fine surprise!

GIGAN SKELETON

RRRrrrrggghgh!!

PATTY

Ach… they grow 'em big out here, don't they?
Easter! Bit o' help?

EASTER

I've got your back, Patty! I've never seen an egg too big for me to CRACK!
Christmas, Valentine - keep moving! We'll hold them here!

PATTY

Aye, ye know what's gotta be done.
It's been a whale of a time, you two.

(PATTY and EASTER make their final stand to keep the Skullgirl's minions at bay)

PATTY

C'mon, Easter! If we're gonna go, let's go out with a BANG!!!

(fight proceeds)

END OF NODE 4

NODE 5

VALENTINE

Patty… Easter…

CHRISTMAS

They did what they were trained to do!
They sacrificed their lives so that we can finish this fight.

HALLOW

Valentine! Christmas! There you are!

VALENTINE

Hal! You made it!

CHRISTMAS

(throws her scalpels at "HALLOW")

Die!

VALENTINE

Christmas!! What are you doing?!

CHRISTMAS

Val, you saw Hallow die - get your head together, the Shapeshifter is trying to break your mind!

DOUBLE

(transforms back to her nun disguise)

You know your team too well.
Very well, allow me to arrange for a reunion.

CHRISTMAS

You're on my list, Shapeshifter.
Val, go after the Skullgirl! This one's mine!

VALENTINE

No, I'm not going to lea-

CHRISTMAS

For once in your LIFE, Val, listen to my orders!
She's undefended… this could be our only chance!
You're the ONLY ONE among us powerful enough to finish our mission!

VALENTINE

So be it… it's been an honor, Christmas.

(fight proceeds)

END OF NODE 5

BOSS NODE

VALENTINE

Skullgirl!
You've been selected for an experimental procedure with ZERO chance of survival!

MARIE (THE SKULLGIRL)

Another fool appears.
More dust to be swept away.

(fight proceeds)

VALENTINE

How…?! She's regenerating too fast!

(VALENTINE is defeated and surrounded by MARIE and DOUBLE, as corpses of The Last Hope are shown laying on the battlefield)

VALENTINE

Our assault… the Last Hope… was it all… for nothing?

DOUBLE

This world is fraught with horrors beyond your comprehension.
Accept your fate and join your comrades. Some might call it "honorable," if that pathetic sentiment is any comfort.

VALENTINE

If you're going to kill me, just shut up and get on with it.

DOUBLE

It would be my pleasure.
Say your prayers!

MARIE (THE SKULLGIRL)

No. We may need her.

DOUBLE

What? I don't see how-

MARIE (THE SKULLGIRL)

Their science somehow led them to me so quickly, all the way out here.
I cannot use this power in their country without fighting it as a whole.

DOUBLE

MARIE (THE SKULLGIRL)

Do you wish to live?
I seek vengeance against the Medici Mafia. I must not be waylaid by those who stand in my way.
Help me in my hunt and lives will be spared, including yours.

VALENTINE

We may share an enemy, true.
But what you've done… to my teammates, my… friends.
How could I ever trust you?

MARIE (THE SKULLGIRL)

I told them they would die, and they died.
I am The Skullgirl. I care not for the petty machinations of mortal men and women.
Help me destroy the Medici Mafia, or be destroyed yourself.

CHRISTMAS

(flashback to CHRISTMAS's last words)

…you're the ONLY ONE…
…finish our mission…

VALENTINE


Very well, you win.
I'll help you.
(..for now)
