Javi: (pleading)
"I’m trying to save lives, Lleona. The government is manipulating us, using us to enforce their twisted
policies. The serum they give us, the one that keeps everyone young—it’s made from the blood of
children. They’ve been killing innocent babies, and we’ve been helping them do it!"
Lleona freezes, her face hardening.
Lleona: (voice low, dangerous)
"Don’t say things you can’t prove, Javi. You’re talking treason."
Javi: (desperate)
"It’s the truth! I’ve seen it. You’ve seen it too, but you just didn’t want to admit it. We’ve been part of
something monstrous, Lleona. We have to stop it."
Lleona’s face contorts with anger and disbelief. She takes another step closer, pulling her gun from its
holster and pointing it at Javi.
Lleona:
"No. You’re the monster now. You’re betraying everything we’ve worked for, everything we’ve believed
in."
Javi raises his hands, trying to calm her down, but he can see that she’s too far gone.
Javi:
"Lleona, please. Don’t do this. I don’t want to hurt you."
Lleona: (shaking her head, tears in her eyes)
"You already have, Javi. You already have."
Without warning, Lleona fires her gun, but Javi is faster. He pulls out his own gun and fires in return,
the shot hitting Lleona in the chest. She stumbles back, her eyes wide in shock before she collapses to
the ground.
