chapter 7

Tim: I've been waiting for you.
Lyn: I've been walking towards you. You could have walked too, would have saved some time.
Tim: But then I would've had to break this cool pose I've got going. Leaning up against a streetlight and all.
Lyn: So now we fight.
Tim: To the death.
Lyn: No weapons.
Tim: No weapons? Is that what I said on the phone. Well, I meant be sure to bring some weapons, because I definitely have some.
*opens his trench coat and reveals that it is lined with throwing stars*
Yeah, you like those don't you? And this...*reaches behind him and withdraws a samurai sword* Well, I know you like this.
Lyn: Looks like you have the upper hand now. If this was a homework assignment for a playwriting class I would call that a beat, maybe,I might be wrong.
Tim: What are you talking about?
Lyn: I think we need one more beat for this assignment.
Tim: What ARE you talking about?
Lyn: Just one more and we are done.
Tim: One more what.
Lyn: This. *she removes a fancy machine gun from her purse, and fills Tim with bullets*
Lyn: Assignment complete.
