Glasgow Kingdom, Planet Sedala
3/18/1988
3PM
the open roads made for record time getting to glasgow kingdom the truck parks just outside the main city's gates, they're open but something doesn't seem quite right.
Adonis: Alright... we're here.
Jennifer: hey... isn't it way too quiet?
the saiyans file out of the truck they walk into the city.
Sonia: This place is big... too big to be this quiet..
withered flowers and sick looking trees line the streets places where there is grass is brown and dead
they walk the brick lined street they're greeted by the high walls that protect the palace of Glasgow.
Adonis: no... no that isn't right at all
Sonia: why is this wall.. purple?
Sonia approaches but Adonis holds her back
Adonis: do not touch it!
Sonia looks confused but when she thinks for a moment.. it clicks
Sonia: the dead trees and flowers, the grass... the lack of people...
Adonis: Poison.
Lyla: A particularly nasty one too, the water didn't turn purple right away and it's completely odorless.
Sonia: Who are..
Adonis: Lyla, where is Lorna?
Lyla: at her workshop. She's workin on a way to purify the water supply again. it was really bad we lost a lot of people. Animals drank from the river outside town and dropped dead where they stood, the big sex showers we got set up for people to use people started screaming bloody murder.. their skin burnin off...
Sonia: so it's also caustic as well as poisonous?
Lyla: Very corrosive.. yes. so much so that the city's pipe system will rot away if it isn't stopped. there's no time, Adonis is this the team you're formin?
Adonis: yes.
Lyla: i can't leave til we fix the water supply.
Adonis: We'll help! what do we do?
Lyla: We're missing a part and chemicals they were stolen from Lorna's workshop. She built the city's water purification system, the rest of the civilian population are layin low I bring around bottled water to them that the military drops off now and then.
Adonis: Let's go find Lorna then
Lyla: Thank you Adonis.
Sonia: *sigh* do our troubles ever cease..?
Adonis: Sonia here is with child, can she stay with you guys?
Lyla: we got plenty of water and food that aint been tainted so yeah sure.
Cyrus: might get dangerous so that'd be best.
Sonia: I agree, thank you for your kindness Lyla
Lyla: aint nothin lass, now c'mon.
Lyla leads the team to Lorna's workshop
Adonis: toldya they're knockouts
Simon: heh! I'll say.
Lyla leads the team to Lorna's workshop
Lyla: here we are, oh Lorna!
Lorna: AHHH BLOODY HELL!!
Lorna takes off her thick work gloves she examines her ring finger
Lorna: Ugh.. good... nothin broken but that still hurt. Lyla i told ya not to do that!
Lyla: Sorry.. look! Adonis and his team's here to help us.
Lorna: Well thank goodness for that.
they really are identical twins, Lorna keeps her hair shorter than Lyla who has long red curly hair down almost to her butt Lorna is also wearing brown mechanics coveralls with a simple tank top under it and thick brown work boots Lyla is wearing a dark green turtleneck with a black skirt thats fairly short and a simple black pair of slip on shoes.
Lorna: So you guys are helpin right? The Batarians that attacked Knottinham and Quartz Kingdom stole a part and purifyin chemicals.. I saw the thief and chased after but lost em, I aint a warrior neither is Lyla but we had some warriors here that were gonna hunt em down..they caught up to em just as they dumped this vile crap into the water supply. They were holed up at the Purification Plant they're still there, they got the better of our warriors they have some strong guy with em.
Simon: then we're gonna head there now.
Sonia: be careful daddy...
Simon: I will sweetie, you stay here and be good
Lorna: oh.. we're avin guests over are we?
Sonia: I can't fight... pregnant
Lorna: oh! good as reason as any.
Lyla: dont you worry.... uh...
Sonia: oh how silly of us.. Im Sonia Belmont, that's Cyrus, you know Jennifer and Adonis, the brickhouse is my dad Simon.
Lyla: nice to meet ya
Lorna: Yeah, reckon you came at the perfect time, you'll kick those scumbags out right?
Simon: you bet we will. they aint expectin Super Saiyans right Cy?
Cyrus: Yeah
Lorna whistles
Lorna: this keeps looking more and more hopeful Sis.
Lyla: yeah.
Lorna: Alright Sonia, you just relax here we got bottled water and food if you get peckish.. or just watch some TV. Lyla... watch after her.
Lyla: huh me?
Lorna: i gotta go with em, they can't fix the purifier without me.
Lyla: is it really necessary?
Lorna: I'll be fine, I got a whole team to back me up!
Lyla: but..... no i wont allow it! just stay here with me!
Lorna: huh? whats gotten into ya?
Lyla: im not losing you!
Lorna: I'm going, it's a bit of a drive to the facility it just makes more sense for me to go with em.. im gonna be fine Lyla.
Lyla: you better come back to me..
Lorna: Promise.. now..
Lorna walks over to her workbench she gets some tools that she'll need
Lorna: okay.. im ready to go.
the team minus Lyla and Sonia leave the workshop.
Lyla: be careful you all..
Sonia: come back safe.
they walk outside of town to get the truck then they load up and drive toward a large building to the east, vile purple water flows out of the pipes that come into view as they close in on their destination Tidal Tempest Bad Future from Sonic CD plays as the scene ends on a wide shot of a facility meant to pump out pure clean water for the people of Glasgow kingdom churning out a deadly witches brew.
