Scene 15 ------------------------------------------- Gandera

* Shura is in the main councilroom pacing back and forth when General Mukakai enters. He stops to watch the mumbling boy, then greets him when he's finally noticed.


Shura- Did you find either of them?!

Mukakai- No, sir.. They are no where in the main city.. But there is evidence to the north of a huge energy battle of some sort.. a wide area of destroyed trees and such..


* Shura growls and turnns to pace away.


Mukakai- It's possible they may have had some sort of.. disagreement.. You know how fickle mages can be.

Shura- How dare Kandero leave me like this! Why now?! My son is about ready to be..!


* Mukakai looks at Shura again quickly. The young ruler catches himself and turns to point up at the General angrily.


Shura- You did not just hear me say anything! That's an order, Mukakai!!


* Mukakai tilts his head, changing his expression to feign indifference.


Mukakai- You said something, M'Lord? I hardly ever pay much attention to your ranting..

Shura- Do not press your luck with me at this moment, General.


* Shura continues pacing some more as he returns to mumbling to himself a bit more unintelligibly. Finally he turns to look back up at Mukakai.


Shura- Mukakai,.. I think I can trust you..

Mukakai- But of course, M'Lord.


* The general bows his head respectfully.


Shura- Of course I'm right.. I'm always right.

Mukakai- If you say so, Sir.

Shura- Hai.. I need you to find me a doctor, General.

Mukakai- You do need a good one, Sir.


* Shura wiggles an ear as he looks up at Mukakai a moment, then balls his fists at his sides.


Shura- Of course I need a good one!! I need the best genetic engineer you can find!

Mukakai- G-genetic..?


* The boy rolls his eyes with annoyance, then waves a hand as he hurries past the general.


Shura- Since I can trust you, come with me.


* Mukakai scratches his head to express his puzzlement as he follows the boy out until Shura pauses to look up at him over his shoulder.


Shura- Why are you doing that?

Mukakai- Uh.. Dandruff.

Shura- Uh.. huh..


* Shura shakes his head and continues off down the hall toward the elevator. Mukakai shakes his head and follows.
