A Shadow's Redemption

Act 2 Scene 5: April 18th. Oceanview High School. Justin and Steve are studying at the school library. Steve slides a piece of paper to Justin.

The paper: "Hey Justin. It has been awhile when the hospital janitor disappeared." Justin writes on the paper and slides it to Steve. "I know. His family was on the news before stating that they fear the worse." Steve writes on the paper and slides it to Justin. "Sasuke found the man's address and is talking to the man's wife and children right now."

Act 2 Scene 6: The janitor's home. Sasuke (wearing the ninja outfit) comforts the janitor's wife, Carmen.

Carmen: "Please, sir. Find my husband. The police don't seem to care enough to find my husband, Ignacio."

Sasuke: "Carmen, I pledge to find your husband and bring him back to you safely. I need to know one thing about the hospital. Are you restricted areas that only the staff would know?"

Carmen: "You don't think that my husband is still in the hospital, don't you?"

Sasuke: "Someone is keeping their mouth shut about this whole thing. I'll assemble my help when they are ready."

Carmen: "God bless you and the others."

Sasuke: "Thank you." Sasuke leaves Carmen and her sobbing children, but he comes back for a second. "Calm your children down and think happy thoughts, okay?"

Carmen: "Yes, we'll try." Sasuke leaves for real this time.

Act 2 Scene 7: Nighttime near the hospital entrance. Sasuke is waiting for Justin and Steve to show up. Justin and Steve show up with Justin's dad.

Sasuke: "What the hell is this?"

Justin: "Sorry, Sasuke. After the whole thing with the escaped mental patient, my dad waits to protect me from any danger." Sasuke looks at Steve.

Sasuke (to Steve): "What about you, Steve? Are your parents and little brother going to show?"

Steve: "No. As long as Justin's dad is here, they can trust me."

Sasuke: "Doesn't matter to me. Ignacio Perez's last whereabouts was cleaning the second floor of Oceanview General Hospital. We will check every nook and cranny of this hospital. Starting... now."

Act 2 Scene 8: Inside Oceanview General Hospital. The Ninjas and Justin's dad enter the hospital. They decided to separate into the groups of two, Justin and Steve are one and Sasuke and Justin's dad the other.

Steve: "Do you think your dad will get along Sasuke?"

Justin: "Who knows? I guess only until this mission is done, we'll find out." At the other side of the second floor of the hospital. Sasuke and Justin's dad are searching for anything suspicious in the restricted area.

Justin's dad: "What we're doing is very illegal you know that, right?"

Sasuke (annoyed): "Sir, a man is missing and his family is worried sick about him. If you were missing, I would be more than happy to help your son find you. I was shocked when that psycho wounded Justin. I wish it was me that got attacked that day." A shadowy figure runs passed them.

Justin's dad: "What was that? I'm calling for backup."

Sasuke: "No. I'm following it."

Justin's dad: "Sasuke, get back here!" Justin's dad runs after him. Sasuke opens a door and find Ignacio. He and Justin's dad run to him and takes off the duct tape off Ignacio's mouth.

Ignacio: "Get out of here! He's right behind you." The door slams closed and a man in operating clothing appears.

Man: "Welcome gentlemen. Today is the beginning of the end of your lives." Sasuke prepares to fight the masked man.

Sasuke: "I don't think so."

Act 2 Scene 9: The other side of the hospital. Justin and Steve are still looking for Ignacio.

Steve: "Still nothing. Maybe Sasuke and your dad found him; try calling them." Justin tries to call them, but nothing except static.

Justin: "No response."

Steve: "That's strange. You think something happened to them?" Unbeknownst to them, someone pointing a sniper rifle at their heads.
