Look! Kim is on a roll!! I'm sorry I was bored and had a lot of time and you know since I promised and no one has said look we're not really reading it (please tell me if you aren't please please) I kept going these are Acts III and IV(there are I think VII in the first episode)

Episode I Act III

Open at Danny's funeral. As they leave, police and others are dropping red roses on Danny's coffin. Danny's wife leads their small son to a car. Sara looks over at them and receives a "This is your fault" look.

Soon Sara is the only one left standing there. Joe Siri walks back to her.

Siri: Your report was full of holes. Is there something else you wanna tell me?
Sara (wiping a tear): When we were at the theater, Joe, I think that … uh … This really weird thing … (shakes her head)
Siri: I want you to have some time off. Take a few days. There'll be a lot more questioning. You know how intense it gets when an officer goes down.

Sara nods, trying not to cry.

Siri: I know what it's like to lose a partner.

He pats her shoulder and walks to where Jake is waiting behind the wheel of a car. The two men drive off.

Sara to herself : What do you do when you lose your very best friend? When you wish that you could see them just one more time? When you can't believe they're not there anymore? Danny, I swear to God I will avenge your death.
Danny's voice: That's what got you into trouble in the first place, Sara.

Sara turns her startled eyes to her left, where Danny walks up. Danny looks at his coffin.

Danny: What're you lookin' at?

Sara glances behind him, then stares at Danny.

Danny: Sara, relax. It's me, Danny. I'm here to tell you there's a lot more happening around you than you think. It's a lot more connected. Open those doors of perception, there's people knocking. You'll see.
Sara (closing her eyes): Go away.

Shift to see Sara standing alone.

Danny's voice: I'm already gone. Let me ask you this. How is it that you survived the Rialto?
Sara: I … I … I don't know. I … I … I really don't know what happened. I just sorta blanked out.

Shift to Sara and Danny standing together again.

Danny: How could you, one cop, not only survive, but kill all those guys? Pez, here's the deal. You don't even know who you are. All I can say is you're from a line going back through time and forward into the future. Part of a wave, a force, a warrior bloodline. You've inherited something unique and powerful. I think that deep down you know it.

Shift again to see Sara standing alone at Danny's graveside.

Sara: Yeah?

Sara sniffles and turns to a visible once more Danny.

Sara: Here's what I do know. You (points) are a damn hallucination. And you're not the first one. I'm having a meltdown (nods). My father, Maria, now you. Gone. I'm losing it Danny. Everybody that I care about gets killed. I'm standing here in the snow by myself, talking to myself, because I wish I was talking to you.
Danny: Pez, this is really happening. You are special. You were chosen.
Sara: Uh huh.
Danny: You're the one who said, "Every day above ground is a special day." Take it from me, you were right.
Sara: Danny, why did things go down the way they did that day? Why?
Danny: Like the man said, "Karma."
Sara (surprised): How do you know he said that?
Danny: I just do. I also know that you're wearing the Witchblade. It's the reason why you can see me. Keep it on.
Sara: What do you know about this thing?
Danny: Not much, really. Talk to Joe Siri. He'll give you some information that'll help you figure out who you are, or at least who you aren't.

Sara, confused, covers her face with her hands and shakes her head.

Sara: I don't … I don’t understand.

Shift again to see Sara standing alone.

Danny's voice: Ask Joe Siri who you are.

A man suddenly appears beside Sara.

Man: Hey, Miss. Hey, you all right?

Sara is startled once again this day and looks around for Danny then nods.

Sara: Yeah.

She walks off through the cemetery. In the background, Ian steps out from behind a large tree.

Cut to Jake talking to Captain Siri.

Jake: Since I don't have a partner yet, and … since Pezzini doesn't have one anymore, maybe we should team up.

Siri: Sara Pezzini does not make an easy partner.

Jake: Yeah, yeah. I know. She thinks she's 10 feet tall and bulletproof. This might not be a bad time for her to have a little backup.

Siri: I don't know if you're the one to give it to her. So far, Danny was the only one who was able to cover her back.

Siri turns to look at a file.

Jake: Please …

Siri: OK, I'll think about it. Danny and Pezzini were very close and … uh … I am worried about her.

Cut to Sara's apartment. She's looking at a photo of Danny and her in their police uniforms. Then a picture of her parents' wedding. Then a picture of her father and her when she was a little girl. Then a picture of Maria as a little girl. Then her father with Joe Siri when they were uniformed partners. While she's looking at the photos, we can hear softly in voice-over:

Sara: Gone … gone … gone. Everybody that I care about gets killed. My father, Maria …

Danny: Karma.

Sara: Gone … gone … gone.

Danny: Like the man said, "Karma."

Sara turns away from her table of photos and paces her apartment. She hits the PLAY button on her answering machine.

Machine: You have one saved message.

Danny (over the machine): Hey, Pez. Danny here. You cool? You know … uh …. I'm really … give me a ring if you need anything.

Sara moves away from the machine, her face red and blotchy from crying. She looks out one window, wiping her eyes. Shift to an exterior view of her walking in front of her windows.

Cut to a man on the roof of the building opposite Sara's. He has a high powered rifle pointed toward her.

Cut to a view of Sara at her window as seen through the rifle's scope.

Back to the man holding the rifle. He nearly has Sara targeted to his satisfaction when Ian Nottingham incapacitates him with one violent blow. Ian takes the rifle and looks at Sara through the scope. He sees her standing at her window crying. Ian glances to the assassin, whom he has draped over some guy wires. The look Ian gives this guy promises dire consequences for his aborted attempt on Sara's life. Ian turns back to Sara, one tear escaping from his left eye and looks through the scope again. His finger outside the trigger guard, he moves his finger as if pulling the trigger.

Cut to Gallo sitting in the back of his car.

Gallo (into a cell phone): Whoa, whoa. What do you mean the job wasn't done? The rifle was up his …? And the top of his head was blown off? There is nothing short of a miracle that is going to save her.

Gallo hangs up.

Fade.
End Act III

Act IV

Open with Sara walking into the precinct. She walks into her office, still very much in a down state of mind. There's a note on her desk that says, "Sara: See me. Siri." She goes to his office.

Cut to Siri's office. Joe Siri holds out a folder to Sara.

Siri: This is a statement filed by Tommy Gallo's attorneys saying that you and Danny attacked Tommy and his men and that Tommy killed Danny in self-defense.
Sara: That's bull.
Siri: But his lawyers, and he got the best, say Tommy's so scared he's gone into hiding because he doesn't trust the police aren't going to kill him the minute they take him into custody.
Sara: You don't believe that … do you?
Siri: Well, the fact that all of his men are dead gives a certain credence to Gallo's claim, don't you see, Sara?

Sara looks away, uncomfortable.

Siri: No, of course I don't believe him. However, you try to get him into a court right now, you might have a lot of trouble convincing a judge or jury otherwise.

Sara looks down.

Siri: He wasn't breaking any laws being in the Rialto and you didn't have probable cause. So, are you ready to tell me what's going on?
Sara: No.
Siri: Sara, three of Gallo's men were killed with what forensics said was a sword. With traces of an unidentified metal. I repeat, are you ready to tell me what is going on?

Sara shakes her head.

Siri: Your badge and your gun, Detective.

Sara looks at him disbelievingly.

Sara: Joe, we saw Gallo kill on of his own men, right there.
Siri: There were so many bullets from so many guns, we'll never be able to prove that. Your badge and your gun.

Flash to Danny talking to Sara at his funeral.

Danny (memory): Ask Joe Siri who you are.

Sara: Who am I, Joe?
Siri: What kind of question is that?

Sara sees his hesitation in answering her

Sara: A direct one. C'mon, Joe. What is it? What's the deal? What is it that you're not ready to tell me?

Siri shrugs and shakes his head.,/I>

Siri: I don't know what you're driving at.
<>Sara: C'mon, Joe. You've known me since I was born. You knew my mother, who's nothing more than a photograph to me. You were my father's partner and best friend. And I ask you, there must be something you can tell me. Wouldn't they want you to tell me?

Siri considers then comes to a decision.

Siri: You were adopted, Sara. I know it's not supposed to be any big thing, you know. You're supposed to tell a child when they're young, but … It was so hard on your mother, not being able to have a baby, you know. She hurt for so long before she got you that she … uh … you know, she probably believed that she gave birth to you herself.

Sara looks stunned. She remembers Danny saying, "You don't know who you are."

Siri: And then he was murdered. I couldn't tell you then, not after that. Still eats at me, that we don't know who killed him.
Sara: I can't believe you kept this from me this entire time, Joe.
Siri: I'm sorry.
Sara: I need a week, Joe, to check some things out.
Siri: No, I can't give it to you.
Sara (temper flaring): You … you tell me all of this and you just exp…. I need a week, Joe, to figure out what's going on. One week. Before I can tell you anything. And then we will talk.
Siri: All right. One week. But there is a condition.
Sara: What kind of condition?
Siri: Jake is your new partner.
Sara: C'mon, Joe …
Siri: No, I'm going to be direct. You're on the edge, Gallo's gone underground, and I'm worried about you. Not to mention I've taken all kinds of heat. You seem different, off your game. And I am not going to send you out there solo.
Sara (softly): OK.


Cut to a gym. Sara is working out, at first punching and kicking a heavy swinging bag. Ian watches her from an out of the way spot. She also does sit ups and weight curls. She finishes with one-legged push ups, eventually collapsing to the floor.

As he watches her, Ian remembers a time when he was about seven years old.

Irons (voice-over from memory): Listen closely, young Nottingham. It is written that no man has ever successfully worn the Witchblade. That only the chosen woman can wear it.

Shift to a scene from Ian's memory. Young Ian is standing in front of a wing back chair. He is in a sheriff's outfit, with a cowboy hat and stars on his toy guns' holsters.

Irons (memory): And though I tried, for all my force of will, I could not keep it on my hand. The gauntlet burned me and seared my flesh until I had to rip it from my wrist. But even my brief exposure was enough to bind me to it forever. To make me a part of it. To allow me to see some of what it sees, but not all. That is my blessing and my curse. I understand the way it thinks. I know what it wants.
Young Ian (memory): And what does it want?
Irons (memory): It wants something that cannot be explained in words. To know what it wants, one must directly experience the Witchblade.
Young Ian (memory): When will I learn to fight?
Irons (memory): Soon enough. Soon enough.

Back to present Ian watching.

Sara puts on the Witchblade bracelet after having changed from her gym attire.

Voice over the P.A.: The gym will be closing in 5 minutes.

Sara walks out through the exercise area. She gives the heavy bag a push, setting it to swinging. In a mirror, she spots her knight in the boxing ring. His sword is resting point down in front of him, his hands resting on the pommel. The bag swings back and forth, obscuring her view, but still she sees him looking up at her. Between one swing of the bag and the next, he's gone.

Sara, a little frightened, runs out of the gym. The caretaker who watches her go from under his billed cap is the same guy who asked if she were OK at the cemetery.

Cut to Jake's apartment late at night. His TV is tuned to cartoons and he's asleep on his couch in just sweat pants. The buzzer on his door sounds. He wakes and it sounds again.

Jake: All right, all right.

,I>The buzzer keeps sounding.

Jake: Lay off the buzzer, would ya?

Jake looks through the peep hole and quickly opens the door. Sara's there.

Jake: Hey, Pez, what's up?
Sara: Hey, Jake. Can I come in?
Jake: Yeah, yeah. No sweat.

Sara walks into a very nice apartment.

Sara: Wow. How do you afford a place like this on a cop's salary?

Jake pulls on a sweater.

Jake: I … um …
Sara (pointing): Bedroom?
Jake (totally getting the wrong idea): Yeah.

Sara enters Jake's bedroom through a turnstile and falls face first onto his bed. She doesn't move a muscle after that.

Jake looks at her and nudges her leg a little.

Jake: Sara?

When he gets no response, he pulls a spread over her and leaves.

Sara has a dream, courtesy of the Witchblade.

Witchblade dream sequence: A full metal mask with a torch near it. A snake. Another masked man with a torch. A woman in armor walking slowly down a tunnel. She is walking toward many figures in masks and dark robes carrying torches lined along both sides of the tunnel. Close up to the woman to see she looks just like Sara. She looks behind her and we see Sara's mysterious guardian knight. She turns back and walks swiftly to the waiting men with torches. They attack her as she walks between them down the tunnel. Occasionally there are flashes of paintings of women of different cultures who each are wielding a sword. A rear view of Sara-in-armor reveals she isn't wearing all her armor. Her back only has the crossed straps of her shoulder armor (or maybe the breastplate). And she only has on a pair of (seemingly modern) black underwear under her armor for the front lower portion. She finally reaches the end of the gauntlet she's just run and meets the guardian knight at the end, waiting for her. He raises the hinged front of his helm and she sees Ian Nottingham looking back into her surprised eyes. Then shift to see a modern Ian slowly opening his eyes and looking back at her from behind a statue of a knight on his charger. Over his left shoulder is an hour glass with sand trickling through it. He closes his eyes slowly. Shift to a last view of knight-Ian in the tunnel.

Sara sits up, wide awake and breathing hard. She looks at the Witchblade.


Cut to Jake in his kitchen fixing breakfast. Sara walks in and takes another look around She notes a poster showing Jake from 1995 with a surf board. She looks closer at the poster then looks at Jake.

Sara: Oh (nods with a big smile). I didn't know you were "the" Jake McCartey.
Jake: Ahh … yep.
Sara: Jake McCartey, the surfing champ. That explains the nice place.

Sara sits on a stool at the counter.

Jake: Coffee?
Sara: Please.
Jake: And I'd appreciate it if you didn't say anything about it at work.
Sara: About what, Jake? Your late night viewing habits?
Jake (big embarrassed grin): Yeah, that either.

Sara closes her eyes and takes a drink of her coffee.

Jake: You all right this morning?
Sara (nods): I will be once I've had more of this. Didn't you have a pretty bad spill in Hawaii before you retired?
Jake: Yeah. Yeah.

Jake continues fixing breakfast while talking.

Jake: Listen, I checked out a few things for you.
Sara: Like what?
Jake: The Rialto Theater.
Sara: And?
Jake: Turns out the building is owned by a multinational corporation called Vorschlag Industries. (Points to a folder on the counter.) Check out that folder right there. Vorschlag is the domain of one Kenneth Irons. Probably heard of him?

Sara flips through public records, photos and newspaper articles in the folder.

Sara: Kenneth Irons the billionaire?
Jake: Yep. He's at the top of the Fortune 500, a major international player, supposedly owns more than 5% of the real estate in New York.

Sara has found a newspaper clipping with Irons at a social gathering. In the background of the picture is Ian.

Jake: There's also speculation that he made his fortune years ago as an arms dealer.
Sara: He has a huge art collection, doesn't he?
Jake: Oh, yeah. Sometimes he donates stuff to museums like the Met and {Mohmar ??}.

Jake turns around to begin work on the toast.

Jake: You know that Joan of Arc collection at the Midtown Museum? That was his. There's some newspaper photos of Irons in the file. He gave this huge charity party for AIDS research. R.E.M. played …

Jake turns back around with the toast. Sara's gone. He looks left and right.

Jake (softly): OK.

End Act IV

OVA Act II

Open with Ian Nottingham entering an area outside a bar. There is a man standing there, obviously on guard. He walks toward Ian.

Man: What do you need, buddy?

He reaches out his right hand to grab Ian. Ian doesn't even pause. His left hand pushes the arm across the man's body, he turns and spins his right elbow into the man's face, dropping him to the pavement.

Ian continues to the door of the bar. Opening the door, he grabs another man stationed there and bounces his forehead off a wooden counter. He then shoves the man into a table with a large vase on it.

Cut to Gallo having dinner in a side room. There is a guard standing behind him. Both of their heads turn to the right at the noise.

Cut to a man in a leather jacket playing pool. He uses his cue stick to launch the cue ball at Ian. Ian nonchalantly catches it in his right hand, pivots and fires it into the forehead of another man. The struck man goes down like a puppet with its strings cut.

Ian advances on the pool player. The pool player swings his cue stick at Ian. Ian ducks and comes back up with a heel of the hand strike with his right hand. He catches the dropped cue stick with his left hand as the pool player drops.

Cut back to Gallo and his guard. They can hear the sounds, but not see the action. The guard takes out his gun from inside his coat and walks to the entryway to Gallo's dining area. Ian walks around the corner and hits the guard over the head with the thick end of the cue stick. Down he goes. Ian drops the cue stick.

Gallo looks on obviously impressed, but not scared. Gallo continues eating. Ian takes the seat opposite him at his table.

Gallo: That was pretty damn good. Who do you work for?
Ian: My client owns the old Rialto.

In the background, the last guard can be seen getting shakily to his feet.

Gallo: Really?
Ian: He's aware of your repeated inquiries regarding the Rialto and is now willing to sell.

Gallo flicks his eyes to the man holding his gun on Ian. Ian takes no note of him.

Ian: Be there tomorrow at 11 o'clock sharp and you can take a look around.

Ian gets up and leaves, totally ignoring the guard who trains his pistol on him the whole time.

Gallo (softly after Ian has gone): I wish that guy worked for me.

Cut to Danny and Sara arriving at the high priced hotel suite Maria was killed in. The manager escorts them.

Manager: I really don't see why this is necessary. I was assured that you were done. For over a week now we've accommodated you. Fingerprint dust everywhere … unsightly yellow tape on the door … noises at all hours …
Sara: Sir, shut up.

Sara starts walking around the room.

Danny (to the manager): Miss Buzanis rented this room?
Manager: I don't see why we have to get into all this.

Sara continues walking while Danny talks to the manager.

Manager: Yes. Yes. Miss Buzanis kept this room on the evening in question, but I have already told the police all this. More than once, I might add. Miss Buzanis was a … frequent guest at our hotel.

Sara has stopped in front of a mirror.

Danny: Nobody saw who she was with?
Manager: Detective, we run a discreet operation.

In the background, the two men can be seen leaving the room.

For Sara, the mirror goes dark and she sees Maria enter the hotel room. She checks herself in the mirror then does a little dance on top of the glass coffee table for a man in his sixties sitting on the couch. She then joins him on the couch for champagne and some pills. They start getting friendly and he passes out for a few seconds. She shoves him back and he wakes up.

Back to Sara. Danny enters the room behind her. She walks over to him.

Danny: What's up?
Sara: Nothin'.
Danny: You learn somethin' in there?
Sara: I'm not quite sure … I wish I'd been here for the initial crime scene. Let's get out of here.

They turn to leave. Sara pushes back the sleeves on her jacket and notices the Witchblade bracelet again. She takes it off and puts it in her jacket pocket.

Cut to a pool hall. Sara sinks the 8 ball in the corner pocket. The man she was playing takes some money out of his pocket and gives it to her, as well as a compliment.

Man: Good shot, man.

Sara looks to a small chalkboard with a list of names on it.

Sara: OK, who's got next game? Uh … Jake. Jake?

Jake McCartey walks up with a cue stick balanced on his shoulder.

Jake: Hey, Pez. I mean … Sara.
Sara: Jake, I come here to try and forget about the job. What do you want, man?
Jake: To shoot pool. Your break.
Sara breaks the balls fairly well.
Jake: I heard that Tommy Gallo is thinking about opening up a club down at the old Rialto Theater. I also heard he's gonna be there tomorrow to check it out in person.
Sara: Yeah? Says who?
Jake: Guy named Drexler.
Sara: Drexler? I busted him once. He was a hard case, a punk. Why would he tell you anything?

Sara is sinking pool balls while talking to Jake.

Jake: I got my ways.
Sara: Really?
Sara prepares for her next shot but Jake's in the way.

Jake: Sorry.

Sara rapidly sinks two more balls.

Jake: Since Gallo's done time, he can't get a liquor license. Which means he'll have to use a front. I would imagine that would be one of the smaller legal infractions Tommy's gonna commit when he opens this place up. Money washing, narcotics, girls … You wanna bring down Gallo, Rialto Theater could be the place to start.
Sara: Gallo's going down for murder, nothing less.
Jake: All right. What time you wanna go?
Sara: Go where?
Jake: C'mon, Sara. I give you some scratch like this, the least you can do is share with me.

Sara gives him a half-amused look.

Sara: Some "scratch"?
Jake: Yeah, you know … uh … information, intel, data …

Sara continues to run the table on Jake.

Jake: Tomorrow when you stake out the Rialto, let me go with you.
Sara: You know what? You're OK, Jake, I'll give you that, but I already got a partner. Eight ball corner pocket.

Sara sinks her last ball. Jake hangs his head.

Jake: Ah, man.

Jake hands over money.

Sara: Thank you.
Jake: Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Sara hands him her cue stick, picks up her jacket, and leaves.

Cut to exterior street scene. Sara and Danny are sitting in their car watching the front of the Rialto Theater.

Danny (sigh): Tell me again, why are we here?
Sara: To keep an eye on Gallo. I wanna know this guy's every move.
Danny: And how do you know Gallo's gonna be here?
Sara: Because Jake McCartey has a contact that says so.
Danny: Jake McCartey?
Sara: Jake's a good kid, Danny.
Danny: If I wasn't aware of your preference for multi-pierced, tattoo-covered drummers or other sorts of nocturnal self-destructive bad boys, I might think you liked him.
Sara: You think he's hot, don't ya?
Danny: Actually, I think Ricky Martin's hot.
Sara: Hmm … How about Tommy Lee?
Danny: Him, too. I don't know. I just don't quite trust the guy.
Sara: Ricky Martin or Tommy Lee?
Danny: Jake McCartey.
Sara (little laugh): You getting paranoid on me, Danny?
Danny: No.
Sara: Do not tell me it's that East Coast - West Coast thing.
Danny (surfer voice): "Oh, dude."
Danny: Why would anyone leave San Diego to come to this? It's not like he's even got family here.
Sara: Danny, Jake just gave me some information, now, that's all.
Danny: Some good scratch?

Sara gives him a look and shakes her head.

Danny (sigh): I understand. Forewarned, forearmed, Grasshopper.

Looking out her side window, Sara sees her knight, complete from helm to gauntlet to sword, looking at her from the edge of a building. When someone passes between her and him, he vanishes ... again.

Sara sits shocked, mouth agape. Danny notices her expression.

Danny: What?
Sara: Nothin'.

Danny looks at her a moment more and clears his throat.

Sara: Hey, Danny, remind me later …

She pulls the Witchblade bracelet out of her pocket.

Sara: I gotta check if this is from the display …

She trails off as two vehicles pull up in front of the Rialto, a large sedan and a SUV. At least six men get out of the two vehicles, Tommy Gallo among them.

Danny: Gallo and his posse.
Sara: Here we go.

Sara puts the bracelet on her wrist instead of stuffing it back in her pocket. Sara and Danny get out of their car as Gallo's party enters the front door of the theater.

Cut to Jake standing at a telephone down the street watching.

Cut to Sara and Danny going down a back alley.

Danny: Wearing your vest?
Sara: Yeah, of course. You?
Danny: Yeah.

They reach a rear entrance to the Rialto, move some boards away from the door and enter.

Cut to the interior of the theater. Sara and Danny are moving through the balcony towards the rail in low light.

Male voice (in the background): Somebody get the lights.

Sara and Danny reach the edge of the balcony.

Different male voice: I got it. I got it.

The lights come on all over the theater and Sara and Danny duck down.

Male voice (in background): Hey, lock up the doors, huh?

Gallo and the others walk down the center aisle toward the stage in the front of the theater.

Gallo: This is perfect.
Another man: Yeah, definitely.
Drexler: You know what we do? We gut the inside but you leave all the retro touches in place. The woodworking, the molding … all this hand-carved stuff you can't get anymore. We don't touch one bit of that.
Gallo: Louie Stomp in Staten Island. He's a silent partner in a construction firm. They do quality work. We'll give the job to them.
Drexler: See, this place is perfect, Mr. Gallo.

Gallo smiles. He then draws a gun, points it at one of his men and fires. After the man drops, Gallo follows the first shot with a second.

Close up of Drexler. He's shocked and getting scared. The others of Gallo's men exchange looks, maybe shake their heads once, but that's it.

Gallo calmly reholsters his weapon.

Cut to the balcony. Danny turns from witnessing the murder to find Sara gone. Shift to see Sara climbing down some scaffolding. Back to Danny.

Danny (softly): Damn!

Someone walks up behind Danny and knocks him on the back of the head with a pistol. Two men carry him off.

Gallo (off camera): This is going to be a legitimate enterprise.

Cut to Sara making her way down the side aisle, hunched over.

Back to Gallo and group.

Gallo: In three months' time, this is gonna be the hottest night spot in New York. Now if the police were to know that I was involved, that would be a problem.

Gallo looks at the frightened Drexler.

Gallo: And when I have a problem, I take care of it. Now this (points to the body) was a problem. Information leak. Problem solved.

Gallo and a couple of his men walk up on the stage. Drexler is still looking at the corpse.

Cut to Sara walking backstage. As she passes a darkened alcove, she hears a voice.

Ian: Sara.

Sara turns and Ian steps out into the light.

Sara: You're not one of Gallo's. You've been following me ever since the museum. What do you want?

Cut to Jake tugging on the handle of a locked door.

Cut to the two men half dragging, half carrying Danny to the stage. They drop him there and he lands on his back.

Cut back to Sara and Ian. Sara heard the sound of Danny hitting the stage.

Sara (fearful): What was that?
Ian: Karma.

Cut to the front of the stage. One man has a gun out and pointed at Danny.

Gallo: Detective Woo of the NYPD.

Danny turns toward Gallo and Gallo kicks him back down.

Gallo (yelling): Hey, Pezzini!

Cut back to Sara and Ian.

Sara: Help me. Please help me.
Ian: No.

Cut to Gallo.

Gallo: C'mon out or he'll be sorry.

Cut to Sara and Ian.

Ian takes a slim metal rod from a pile nearby and uses it to lift Sara's right hand.

Ian: Use the Witchblade.
Gallo (off camera): I'm waitin'.

Sara turns to look in Gallo's direction. When she turns back, Ian is gone.

Sara: How do …

Cut to Gallo and company.

Gallo: C'mon out, Pezzini … now.

Sara walks from the edge of the stage.

Gallo: Buon giorno, Bella. Dino.

He motions one of his men over to search Sara. He pats her down, perhaps getting a little out of hand, because …

Gallo: Just search her, OK, Dino?

Dino finishes by getting her spare gun from her ankle holster. Sara looks at Danny with an "I'm so sorry" look.

Gallo: You have no idea how much money you just saved me. (Holds up his gun) These particular bullets, in case you're interested, they cut through Kevlar like butta.

Gallo shoots Danny. Sara rushes over to him.

Sara: Danny …

Cut to Jake, gun out and yanking hard on the door handle now. Shift to inside the door. A gloved hand unlocks the door. Jake rushes through the doorway ... and is thrown over an outstretched leg to the floor by Ian. Ian steps on Jake's gun with his left foot and gives him a huge kick to the head with his right.

Cut to Sara and Danny.

Sara: Danny! Danny!
Danny: Tell my wife I'm sorry.
Sara: Danny …

Danny is still, his eyes open and unblinking. Sara turns to look up into Gallo's smiling face.

Sara: Just do it, Gallo. Why don't you kill me and get it over with?
Gallo: Arrivederci, Bella.

He points his pistol at her and fires.

"Witchblade vision": Her knight looking at her outside the Rialto. The Witchblade eye opening. Her right wrist held up backstage. Gallo with the gun pointed at her. Backstage looking at the Witchblade. The gauntlet flying from the case in the museum. The Witchblade bracelet on her wrist. Gallo staring down at her, the gun huge in her sight. The bullet leaving the barrel of the gun.

Back to Sara. In that one instant, the bracelet transforms into the gauntlet and deflects the bullet into an electrical box at the rear of the stage. While everyone is distracted by the sparks flying, Sara rolls back away from the armed men. The lights start strobing.

What begins next is a wild dance of mayhem and death. Everyone on the stage is shooting at Sara. She spins and moves across the stage, dodging and deflecting bullets. She throws one man a couple dozen feet in the air, catching his dropped gun in her left hand.

Drexler, in the meantime, has seen enough and bolts for the nearest exit. Gallo heads for another exit himself.

Sara leaps from the stage, landing between the first rows of seats. She shoots under the seats, taking out one man who has an Uzi.

Fast cut to Ian sitting cross legged on the scaffolding Sara had climbed down earlier.

Sara advances on the men firing at her. What follows is complete annihilation, ending with the Witchblade transforming again into what looks like a knobbed mace head with a sturdy blade attached and slicing up a few of the men. And Ian is watching rapt the whole time.

When all the men are down, we can hear the blade retracting or disappearing. Sara faces the empty theater with the Witchblade gauntlet on.

Sara: Gallo? Gallo! Gallo!!

In the movie it kills the lead male's wife and somehow forces him to appears in a town in West Virginia. Then he finds out Mothman(the entity) has been appearing there and then the calls start and Mothman starts talking about the man's wife and thus manipulating him and finally when the man stops listening the car bridge in the town collapese without a good explanation...36 people died "a tragedy on the River Ohio"the entity called it...it was very disturbing because a movie like that has no real ending it is not a mystery it just...is you know...scared the hell out of me anywho...it's on VHS if you want to look into it...sorry you had such a rough night Cat.

Court OKs Random Drug Tests in Schools
Thu Jun 27,10:23 AM ET
By ANNE GEARAN, Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON (AP) - The Supreme Court approved random drug tests for many public high school students Thursday, ruling that schools' interest in ridding their campuses of drugs outweighs an individual's right to privacy.

The 5-4 decision would allow the broadest drug testing the court has yet permitted for young people whom authorities have no particular reason to suspect of wrongdoing. It applies to students who join competitive after-school activities or teams, a category that includes many if not most middle-school and high-school students.

Previously these tests had been allowed only for student athletes.

"We find that testing students who participate in extracurricular activities is a reasonably effective means of addressing the school district's legitimate concerns in preventing, deterring and detecting drug use," Justice Clarence Thomas ( news - web sites) wrote for himself, Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist and Justices Antonin Scalia ( news - web sites), Anthony M. Kennedy and Stephen Breyer ( news - web sites).

The court stopped short of allowing random tests for any student, whether or not involved in extracurricular activities, but several justices have indicated they are interested in answering that question at some point.

The court ruled against a former Oklahoma high school honor student who competed on an academic quiz team and sang in the choir. Lindsay Earls, a self-described "goodie two-shoes," tested negative but sued over what she called a humiliating and accusatory policy.

The Pottawatomie County school system had considered testing all students. Instead, it settled for testing only those involved in extracurricular activities on the theory that by voluntarily representing the school, those students had a lower expectation of privacy than did students at large.

The ruling is a follow-up to a 1995 case, in which the court allowed random urine tests for student athletes. In that case, the court found that the school had a pervasive drug problem and that athletes were among the users. The court also found that athletes had less expectation of privacy.

Thursday's ruling is the logical next step, the Oklahoma school and its backers said, and the court majority agreed.

"The particular testing program upheld today is not reasonable, it is capricious, even perverse," Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg ( news - web sites) wrote for the dissenters.

In a brief, separate dissent, Justices Sandra Day O'Connor ( news - web sites) and David Souter ( news - web sites) said they disagreed with the court's ruling in 1995 and disagree now.

Of the estimated 14 million American high school students, better than 50 percent probably participate in some form of organized after-school activity, educators say. The trend is toward ever greater extracurricular participation, largely because colleges consider it a factor in admissions.

Earls and the American Civil Liberties Union ( news - web sites) argued that the Oklahoma school board could not show that drugs were a big problem at Tecumseh High School. She claimed the "suspicionless" drug tests violated the Constitution's guarantee against unreasonable searches.

Pottawatomie educators, backed by the Bush administration, argued that any drug problem is a concern. Also, the school said, the drug tests were a deterrent for students who knew they could not participate in favorite activities unless they stayed clean.

During oral arguments in the case in March, a Bush administration lawyer said universal testing would be constitutional, even though a lawyer for the Oklahoma school said she doubted that would be so.

Numerous schools installed drug testing programs for athletes after the 1995 ruling, but wider drug testing remains relatively rare among the nation's 15,500 public school districts. Lower courts have reached differing conclusions about the practice.

The Tecumseh testing program ran for part of two school years, beginning in 1998. It was suspended after Earls and another student sued. Earls is now a student at Dartmouth College.

The Tecumseh policy covered a range of voluntary clubs and sports, including the Future Farmers of America club, cheerleading and football. Students were tested at the beginning of the school year. Thereafter, tests were random.

Overall, 505 high school students were tested for drug use. Three students, all of them athletes, tested positive.

A federal appeals court ruled against the program, saying it took the Supreme Court's 1995 ruling too far. Sports are different from other extracurricular activities, the lower court said, and the school had not done enough to show that students who participated in those activities were abusing drugs.

The school district appealed to the Supreme Court.

The case is Board of Education of Independent School District No. 92 of Pottawatomie County v. Earls, 01-332.


Amarillo Voices: Drug testing students causes more hamr than good


By Brent Biles
Opinion

On Tuesday, the U.S. Supreme Court began hearing the case of Lindsay Earls vs. Tecumseh High School.

Ms. Earls was attending high school in the small town of Tecumseh, Okla., a couple of years ago when she was informed that if she wished to participate in the school choir, she would be required to undergo a drug test.

She was then ushered into the women's rest room, given a cup and told to step into the stall.

Part of her objection to the process was the fact that as she was filling the cup, three teachers stood outside the stall listening. She claims the process was humiliating and unnecessary.

There is, however, a more serious issue at stake in Earls vs. Tecumseh.

If the Supreme Court sides with Tecumseh High in this hearing, it will set a precedent that will give high schools freedom to test for drugs any student who wishes to participate in any extracurricular activity without parental permission.

In 1996, the court set a similar precedent that made it legal for schools to test athletes. The Earls case would be much more wide-ranging. In essence, it would mean that if your child wanted to participate in almost any activity at school outside the basic curriculum, he or she could be subjected to a drug screen without your permission. This would include band, choir, FFA, FHA, drama, speech club, chess club and any other activity you can imagine.

Essentially, it means that at one time or another, all high school students will be tested.

Some of you might recall a case in Lockney a couple of years back involving a man named Larry Tannahill. Mr. Tannahill refused to allow the Lockney school to test his son, Brady. As a result of that refusal, Brady was temporarily expelled from school, and Mr. Tannahill was fired from his job.

In March 2001, a federal district court in Texas struck down the Lockney school's drug-testing policy. Similarly, in Oklahoma, the Tecumseh testing policy was struck down by the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. In fact, all across the nation, federal courts have been rejecting the notion that schools should be able to implement broad-range testing policies in their schools.

So why am I talking about it here?

According to Washington insiders, it is a "done deal" that the Supreme Court will reverse the decision made by the 10th Court of Appeals and support Tecumseh's right to test students who wish to participate in extracurricular activities of any kind.

In fact, according to some sources, Republicans have had in the works for many years a plan to test all high school students. And this precedent, if it passes, will include almost all students between seventh and 12th grade. A line stealthily slipped into one of former President Clinton's education bills a few years back, and missed at the time by the authors of the bill, provides evidence of this plan. The line would allow schools to tap gigantic block funds of school money to pay for testing.

In other words, money that is being used to improve the quality of education in our schools instead would be used to pay for drug testing.

Now, I should say that I am not pro-drug use. In fact, I believe that prolonged drug use, just like alcohol or tobacco abuse, can lead to a number of problems for the abuser. I wonder, however, if testing is an effective way to prevent drug use.

Testing is most effective in detecting marijuana abuse, as evidence of that drug remains in the body for many days after use. Traces of other, more powerful drugs, such as cocaine or ecstasy, however, are often gone by the morning after.

Drug tests are notoriously unreliable as well, often failing to detect drug use or providing false-positives in as many as one in 100 tests. This means that in a school the size of Amarillo High, in any given year there is the possibility that as many as 10 innocent students could test positive for drugs. Imagine if it were your son or daughter who was faced with the stigma of being labeled a drug user.

Experts agree as well that drug testing is not the best policy. In a brief filed in support of Lindsay Earls, the American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Public Health Association, and the National Association of Social Workers said that "Tecumseh's policy does far more harm than good to the community's young people - rendering them, for example, more likely to drop out of school, less likely to be admitted to college, more likely to become involved with crime and more likely to use drugs."

I sincerely hope the justices of the Supreme Court will side with Lindsay Earls this week. However, I fear they will not. The conservative group of judges currently on the bench has consistently voted a hard line where drugs are concerned. This attitude sends the right message to kids, but at what cost?

Are you, as a parent, ready to give schools the right to test your child for drugs without your permission?

By the time you read this column, that question might be moot.

From the Genius that brought us Monoke Hime is Spirited away! Set to hit US theaters Septermber 20th 2002!
Spirited Away Preview Check there for some info. Spirited away was a pretty recent hit in Japan so I'm really happy it hit the US so fast! Hopefully it's not watered down beyond recodnition....I sure do hope not. Anyway Keep your ears to the ground until we get the full story I mean I haven't heard this but it maybe a limited release you know only in New York and Los Angels or something.

Yesterday I had to take everything off of my walls…to say the least it was a very raw experience because the only thing I really have on my walls are pictures that Lauren and Peter have drawn and pictures of my friends. Then I had to clean out the junk drawers and came across notes from friends and such and well Four years of memories hit hard in those four hours Then I started to think about the first time I met all of you. I remember Lauren’s with a bare smile. It was in creative writing and she had to describe a character and I think she described Rubeus from Sailor Moon or that was I gathered and at that moment I frowned and was insanely jealous and thought “She’s much better than me.” Then I smiled a big old smile and thought “good then I’ll just have to work harder” I don’t think it was a competition really with her or a rivalry just a motivation to better myself. Then I met Nori trying to talk to Lauren now that I think of it. It was a group thing and well Nort and Lauren went together and I wanted to work with Lauren but I let it go. Then it occurred to me “Someone else sees her talents good Nori has good taste.” Then Nori and I had various run ins about Tamora Pierce and Harry Potter. Peter I met Peter and he showed no interest in getting to know me but there was just this weird something that told me get to know him. So I bugged him and bugged him and I’m sure at one point or another I’m sure he wanted to kill me but hey I think what welded us together was the Anime. Angel Sanctuary and X to be exact…from there it just kinda kept evolving . Cat I met because of Lauren but I think Cat is cool too,. With Cat it was like seeing what Lauren would be if she wasn’t Lauren. I know that makes no sense but it does in my head. Like Cat is forever smiling it’s insane she makes you want to smile and it’s crazy. And she plays the guitar and I love guitars I love them love them love them! And well she’s html illiterate so now I don’t feel as dumb as I did once upon a time but at least she has Lauren to fix stuff I have to sit there and growl at the comp. Then there’s Cat Lauren interaction. This always makes me laugh because they are forever beating one another in some good natured way and I have to wonder if they have ever had a falling out. Well yes that was a nice little tryst wasn’t it. I’m glad I met all of you Cat for her sunniness, it makes me happy, Lauren for her introspective nature that makes me comfortable with my own introspective nature make me feel I’m not the only one that thinks, Nori for her silliness because the way she types with the Yeah okay yeah thing is the way I think sometimes when I’m trying to figure stuff out makes me feel not so stupid(Nori I’m not calling you stupid I sweat) and Peter Pete just makes me happy by existing and I have no clue why he’s just Peter and it’s great. He’s going to have a lot of stuff to read when he gets back 3 girls all with online journals him gone for a month and the way me and Lauren rant…that poor baby…Well I need to get film developed because I have pictures of almost everyone and they are on the last role of film so yes I’m taking a few pictures of everyone when I move to tape to my new place of residence I refuse to have them shoved into some box somewhere. All of the drawings are coming with me as well along with Peter’s all notes. So ha I’m set maybe. I’ll probably wear the shirt Geimer might make me with and Angel Sanctuary pic the day we move. Well yes I have to go to the hospital now so I’ll talk to you guys later.

Okay here is some of the OVA and it's really long so I only put act one and there are 7

OVA Act I
Open: Early morning New York City.

Female voice-over: New York City. November 11, 2000.

Cut to a close up of an alarm going off and a hand reaching over to turn it off. CDs being loaded in a disk changer. A woman pulling jeans over a pair of men's briefs. A gun is taken off a table or dresser and a clip being inserted. The gun is holstered on her right hip and a second gun is put in an ankle holster. A black leather jacket is zipped up. She grabs a motorcycle helmet. The apartment door closes.

The next section is a series of intercut scenes of the motorcycle rider {Sara Pezzini, if you were in any doubt}, New York City traffic and architecture, and close up views of a small metal construct made of overlapping plates. {We never see the whole thing, but I think you can guess what it is.}

Cut to the motorcycle arriving in front of a sign that says, "No Parking Any Time."

Sara gets off her bike and removes her helmet. She has long dark hair. There are police officers walking all around.

Coming out of the building in front of her is an Asian man in his thirties with shoulder-length black hair. {This is her partner, Danny Woo.}

Danny: Hey, Pezzini.

She nods once. He keeps walking toward her and hands her a large cup of coffee. They walk toward one of the cars parked nearby.

Danny: Know what today is? November 11th … eleven-eleven. Your horoscope says today's a special day.
Sara: Every day above ground is a special day.
Danny: Got a point there. As far as I know.

They reach their unmarked car.

Sara: I'm sorry.
Danny: I know how pissed off you are.
Sara: No, you don't.

Sara puts her helmet in the back seat of the car.

Danny: We'll stay on Gallo and sweat him. If he really did kill your friend Maria, sooner or later something will give.
Sara: Yeah, his heart as a hollow point hits it.
Danny: We don't know that it was him.
Sara: You know, you're right. We don't, I do. We just gotta prove it somehow.

They get in the car, Danny in the driver's seat.

Sara (sigh): How's the wife?
Danny: That was a heck of a segue.
Sara: Yeah, I'm good at those.
Danny: And getting better. Must be a Gemini thing, you know. Mercurial and all.

Sara looks out the side window as Danny starts the car and drives off.

Flash to two girls both blowing out the five candles on a birthday cake.

Sara in voice-over: Maria's birthday was the same day as mine.

Flash to two teen girls sharing a cigarette.

Sara in voice-over: We used to do everything together, including the things we weren't supposed to.

Back to Sara staring out the car window.

Sara (softly): I still don't understand how a 15-year-old could like menthols.
Danny: Huh?

Sara turns to look at Danny. She gives him a sad smile.

Sara: Nothin'. Wearing your vest?
Danny: Yeah, of course.

Cut to the interior of a museum. On display are various pieces of arms and armor, including several complete suits of armor on dummies.

Announcer (over the P.A.): The Midtown Museum will be closing in 15 minutes. Please begin to make your way to the exits and thank you for coming.

Cut to one glass-encased display case containing a sword, a couple cups, and a metal gauntlet in the center. There is a man standing at the case wearing a long black coat with a wide fur collar and a black watch cap. He's staring at the gauntlet.

Close up of the gauntlet. There is a blue gem embedded near the end away from the hand. As the camera pans up the glove, we can see this was the segmented metal construct shown at the beginning. The fingertips end in wicked looking talons. On the top of the gauntlet, near the first two knuckles, is a round protuberance.


Cut to a street scene. Sara and Danny are in their car, parked at the curb.

Danny: So, Little Mike thinks my job is driving a tractor. He wants to come to work with me.

Danny looks over to Sara. She's staring at one particular building on the street in her side mirror.

Danny: Hey, Pez, I don't think I've seen you blink once these past two hours. You should do that once in a while, you know. It lubricates your eyes.

Sara spots two men exiting the building she's been watching.

Cut to the two men.

One is in a dark suit and overcoat and carrying a silver metal briefcase. The other is wearing a tan wool overcoat.

Tan overcoat: Where's the driver?

Cut back to Sara and Danny.

Sara: Here we go.

They get out of the car and walk back to the two men standing on the sidewalk.

Sara: Hey, Gallo.

The man in the tan overcoat answers.

Gallo: Buon giorno, Bella.
Sara: Hey, Killer.

Danny, in the meantime, greets Gallo's companion.

Danny: Hey. How ya doin'?
Dark suit: None of your business. You got a warrant?
Danny (amused): A warrant? For what?
Gallo: Some people might say that this borders on harassment, Detectives.
Danny: We got three witnesses that put you next to Maria Buzanis only three hours before she was murdered.
Gallo (looking right at Sara): Well, who wasn't?

Sara and Gallo exchange looks. Danny turns back to Gallo's companion and gives him a puzzled look after a second.

Danny: Hey, don't I know you from somewhere?

The man hits Danny with the briefcase. Danny falls to the sidewalk. The man in the dark suit then pulls a gun out of the waist of his pants with his other hand and aims it at Danny. Sara kicks the gun out of his hand and pushes him back against the wall of the building. He pushes back using the briefcase before dropping it, then takes off running down the sidewalk. Danny gets up, gun aimed at Gallo.

Gallo (raising his hands): I'm not going anywhere.

Cut to the fleeing man and Sara chasing. Several people are knocked over on the sidewalk by the escaping man. The man finally runs into the Midtown Museum, knocking over the employee who was shutting the door for the evening.

Sara follows immediately after.

Sara (yelling on her way by): Call 911!

They continue their chase, eventually coming to the wing with the armor display. Gallo's friend has gained enough ground by this time that Sara is uncertain which way to turn when she gets to an intersection. She turns randomly to her left.

Sara walks cautiously, gun in hand, looking everywhere for the man. Close up on several of the suits of armor. Down at the end of another hall, Sara sees the man run past. She runs after him.

Sara takes a brief look around the room she's just entered and is immediately drawn to the case holding the metal gauntlet. She squats down before it, putting the glove at eye level. The protuberance at the top of the glove opens, revealing a deep red stone. It begins to glow. Sara is transfixed, apparently forgetting everything around her {including an armed man she was chasing!}. The glow disappears from the stone. The "eye" closes.

Reflected in the glass top of the case is the man with the black watch cap. Sara stands and sees his reflection. She whirls, pointing her gun at him. He doesn't even react. {Oh, This would be Ian Nottingham….}

Ian: Magnificent, isn't it?
Sara: Sorry, sir.

Ian gives a bare smile.

Sara: You … uh … you really shouldn't be here. (nodding) You should leave.

Ian shifts his body out of Sara's line of sight and she sees Gallo's friend in the next room. Sara walks swiftly after him, gun pointed at the floor.

Sara: Drop it!

He stands beside a statue and fires his gun at Sara. She fires back. For the next few seconds, they shoot back and forth, destroying glass cases, shooting centuries-old armor and statuary. He finally hits Sara's gun, sending it flying from her hand. Sara pulls her backup piece from her ankle holster while he advances on her.

When she starts firing back again, he pauses in a doorway and pulls out a second gun.

Suddenly Sara rolls by, flat on her back on a dolly, firing her pistol. The man fires both of his at her. He hits the case holding the gauntlet, sending it flying through the air. Sara, unarmed now, takes a leap away from him and the gauntlet flies to her hand while she rolls. She comes up on one knee. He walks up, preparing to finish her off.

Sara cowers with the gauntlet over her head. Gallo's companion fires, but the bullet ricochets off the gauntlet. Sara looks up, surprised to not be hit, then looks at the gauntlet. Her head snaps to one of the suits of armor to her right. Close up of the helm shows what looks like a live person's eye inside. Sara turns her attention back to the shooter. He fires again, and again the bullet ricochets. Flash to the suit of armor. The head turns. Flash to the flight of the ricochet. It strikes a pipe going up one wall. A fireball engulfs the room, blowing out windows.

Fade.

Cut to flashing lights and sirens outside the museum. Sara is sitting at the rear door of an ambulance. In front of her are Danny and Joe Siri, her captain. Beyond Danny is Jake McCartey, another detective. Other police and emergency people are in the background.

Siri: Any idea what happened?
Sara (dazed, rubbing her head): Joe, I chased the guy in the building. We exchanged a few rounds and … uh …. He really opened fire on me with some big bore pistols. And the next thing I know … uh …

Flashes of the Witchblade seeing Sara, Sara's right hand outstretched, the Witchblade resting in the case, the Witchblade gauntlet on Sara's arm.

Sara shakes her head minutely and rubs her wrist in front of a silver bracelet with a large red stone set in it.

Sara: … there was this giant explosion.
Siri: Hmm.
Jake: Talked to the caretaker. He said the gas pipes are ancient. Thinks maybe a bullet hit one.
Sara: Thought it was a grenade.
Siri: No, the blast was too big for that.

Sara touches the back of her head.

Jake: Nobody can figure out how you weren't … um …
Sara: Pulped, Jake?
Jake (softly): Yeah.
Siri: You realize who that was?
Sara: All I know is that he drew on Danny.
Siri: That was Lorenzo Vespucci.
Jake: Best hit man in the biz. Gallo's protégé.
Sara: Then I guess that explains all the firepower.
Danny: We pulled a few of Vespucci's teeth out of some marble. That's all that we could find.
Jake: Security cameras that weren't blown up show that there was another person in there.
Danny: The only thing on tape were his shadows. It was if he knew the cameras were there. Did you see anyone else?

Sara thinks a moment and then shakes her head.

Sara: No. I … I don't … I don't know. I don't remember anyone.

Flash to Ian's reflection alongside hers in the case's top. Flash of the Witchblade seeing them together from the case. Flash of Ian pulling back so Sara can see Vespucci.

Sara touches her face, still dazed.

In the background, Gallo is being led to a police cruiser.

Gallo: Hey, Pezzini.

They all turn to look at Gallo. Sara stands.

Gallo: Get your man?
Sara: Not yet, Gallo.
Gallo: Well, you got one of mine.

Sara nods.

Gallo: Your father woulda been proud. (Smiles)

Sara takes a step toward him.

Danny (holding her): Don't do it, Pez.

Gallo laughs as he gets in the police car.

Shift scene so that Sara, Danny, Siri and the ambulance is in the background. In the foreground Ian is on a cell phone.

Cut to a tall office tower. Kenneth Irons answers his ringing cell phone.

Ian (over the phone): She's got it.

Cut back to Ian.

Ian: You won't be disappointed.

Cut back to Irons.

Ian (over the phone): She's everything you said she'd be.

Camera starts panning across the room, coming to rest on an open book.

Irons: Good.

Close up on the open page. It is written in some language, possibly Latin. In the corner is "11-11-2000." Close up on the date.

Fade.

Cut to close up of a table or desk with photos. Pan to Sara opening the door to this apartment. Sara turns to Jake McCartey behind her.

Jake: Um … You sure you don't need … ah … me to stick around a while?
Sara: Oh, no, no thanks. I can … I can handle it from here. Hey, thanks for hanging at the hospital all night. I knew I didn't have a concussion.
Jake: No problem.
Sara: Well, sleep well, Jake.
Jake: All right. See ya.

Jake goes back out the door and Sara moves to close it.

Jake: You know, I can make you some calzones (he pronounces it cal-zone-ays) or something.
Sara (smiles): It's calzones. Go home, Jake.

Sara closes the door.

Jake (to the closed door): Some pasta puttanesca?
Sara (from the other side): Good night.

Jake walks off quietly trying out presumably Italian phrases.

Cut to Sara inside her apartment. She walks to the bed and sits down on the side. She hits the PLAY button on her answering machine.

Machine: You have one new message.

Danny (over the machine): Hey, Pez. Danny here. You cool?

Sara removes her jacket while listening to Danny's message.

Danny (over the machine): You know … uh …. I'm really … give me a ring if you need anything.

As the message ends, Sara notices the bracelet on her right wrist. She's puzzled to see it there.

Sara: What the hell …?

She removes the bracelet, setting it on the truck that serves as her bedside table. The stone in the bracelet is pointed toward her. She rubs her head.

Cut to Sara sitting in her shower not moving as the water cascades over her.

Sara in voice-over: Tough day. I don't know why I keep pushing the envelope. Something's gotta change. I've gotta change.


Cut to a Witchblade-eyed view of Sara sitting down on her bed.

Shift to Sara looking at the Witchblade. Sara starts hearing whispers of things she's said and that others around her have said.

Cut to Sara tossing on her bed, dreaming.

"Witchblade vision" : Solar eclipse. Sara whipping her head around. The suit of armor turning its head. Sara in voice-over saying, "I don't remember." A solar flare. A meteorite streaking toward earth. A whirlpool. Someone holding up a rock {the meteorite?}. Primitive people sitting around a fire. A metallic woman wearing what looks like the Witchblade on her right hand {the spirit of the Witchblade?}. The Witchblade gauntlet. An Egyptian pyramid. Metallic woman running. A mass of people near a statue of Anubis. Metallic woman. An Egyptian woman wearing the Witchblade addressing a crowd. Medieval battle with knights on horses and flags waving. One knight wears the Witchblade and wields a sword. A torch lighting a mass of straw and wood. A woman on one side of the fire and a group of people watching from the other side. A man in religious garb holding out the Witchblade gauntlet to someone else and saying, "Bury this in the catacombs." The straw and wood pile burning.

Sara wakes up. She sits up and stares at the bracelet.


Cut to Gallo having a conversation at a small table with a man in his thirties with a ponytail in a pinstriped suit.

Gallo: Look, normally I would handle this problem internally, but in this situation I can't do that. I'm under a little too much scrutiny. So, I'm gonna need your best cleaner.
Other man: What you're requesting is very … expensive.
Gallo: No, no, no. Look, I don't want to negotiate, OK? I just want the situation handled and I want it handled soon.

The other guy considers the request for a moment.

Gallo: I know. You're probably gonna have to import the talent.
Other man: Who is the situation?
Gallo: Detective Sara Pezzini.


Cut to Sara walking up to the station. As she nears the door, she sees the suit of armor from the museum now standing on the next street corner. It's moving as if there were someone inside and he's looking at her. Sara's eyes are wide, startled. You just know she's thinking, "All right, I've finally cracked." When foot traffic passes between her and the knight, he seems to disappear. Sara walks through the door into the station. Reflected in the door as it closes is Ian Nottingham.

Cut to Sara walking through the station. A uniformed policeman walks beside her for a short time.

Uniform: Hey, Pez. Vespucci, huh? "The Butcher Man." Gallo can't be too happy about that.
Sara: How you doin', Smitty?
Smitty: Jealous.
Sara: Don't be.
Smitty: You took out Vespucci. That's …
Sara: Blind luck?
Smitty: Not from what I heard, but if you wanna do that little Sara Pezzini modesty thing, I'm cool with that.

Sara meets Joe Siri. Smitty walks off.

Siri: Looking good, Detective.
Sara: Thanks.

Siri waves her into his office.

Siri: C'mon in.

Sara follows him. Jake watches her walk away.

Siri: So what's the deal, Sara?
Sara: What do you mean, sir?
Siri: Oh, don't give me that officious crap. You know what I mean. Your old man hated Gallo, too.
Sara: With all due frigging respect, Joe, Gallo just killed one of my best friends.
Siri (shakes head): You can't prove that.
Sara: Yes, I can.
Siri: Well, good. Do it. A few people are very angry about Vespucci. So watch out.
Sara: Yes sir.

Sara turns to go.

Siri: He would be proud of you.

Sara gives a little nod and exits.

Cut to Danny working at his desk. Hearing footsteps, he holds up a cup of coffee to the side. Sara takes it on her way past his desk.

Danny: Pez!
Sara (sharply): What?
Danny: What do you mean "What"?
Sara: What are you lookin' at?
Danny: My curmudgeon of a partner.
Sara: And here I thought I was coming across as ebullient.
Danny: Pez, I don't actually think I'm caffeinated enough for the word thing this morning.
Sara: { didn't catch}, but you started it.
Danny: Hey, listen, you wench … I just want to say, "Thanks" for saving my life.
Sara: Oh, yeah, that. No big deal. I think we're even now. (Gives him a wink.)
Danny: No, we're not. I still owe you one.
Sara: OK, I'll think of something.
Danny: Like help taking down Gallo?
Sara: Yep.
Danny: Hey, not a problem.
Sara: Good.
Danny: Legendary hit man. Never been caught. One of the smartest, hardest bad guys in the city.
Sara: Guess we should get him off the street then.
Danny: Pez, can I ask you a serious question?
Sara (holds up her hand): I'm bracing myself.
Danny: Seriously.

Sara looks up at Danny.

Sara: Hit me.
Danny: Maria was a party girl. A high end hooker. Alcoholic, sex addict, pill head, coked up, adrenaline junkie hedonist.
Sara: Your point being …?
Danny: She was constantly putting herself in dangerous situations. She liked dangerous situations.
Sara: Right. So she deserved to get double tapped by a scumbag who thrives off the human waste he creates.
Danny: I didn't exactly say that.

Sara gives him an apologetic look. She stands to pace a bit.


Sara: I know. I'm just pissed at myself, really pissed.

Sara looks to a cork board where she has pinned newspaper articles and photos related to Maria's murder.

Sara: I hadn't even seen Maria for almost a year. Then sic days ago, she calls me. Bang! A day later, before I get a chance to even call her back, she gets her brains splattered …
Danny (interrupting): What? You think you coulda saved her?
Sara: I don't know, Danny. I don't … I just don't know.
Danny: What would you have done differently?
Sara: Called her back. Guess I was just afraid she was gonna hit me up for more money.
Danny: Don't beat yourself up.
Sara (still in her jacket from walking in) pulls the Witchblade bracelet from her coat pocket, where it had been forgotten.
Sara (putting the bracelet on): I almost forgot … the other night this weird bracelet somehow found its way on my wrist.

Sara rubs her hands across her face. Opening her eyes, she looks at her cork board. She has a vision.

"Witchblade vision": A flash of her guardian knight. The photos on the cork board. The knight. Close up of the photo of a blood-stained couch. Backing away from the couch, we see Maria lying there. Time goes backwards for a bit, retracing Maria's last few minutes.

Sara comes back to herself looking shocked (this was her first daytime vision, after all). She continues to look at the cork board.

Danny (noting her expression): You OK?
Sara (still shocked): Sometimes I feel like I'm losing my mind.
Danny: Don't worry, partner. You did that a long time ago.
Sara: Let's go back to the crime scene.
Danny: You serious?

She doesn't say anything, just keeps walking. He grabs his coat and follows.

Fade.

End Act I

Okay here to help are pictures of the cast and crew of the Witchblade

From the Official Site:
NYPD Homicide Detective Sara Pezzini is a vexing combination of street smarts, intelligence and beauty. Sworn to uphold the law, Sara will go to any lengths to bring criminals to justice. When she comes in contact with the Witchblade, the ancient weapon stirs to life and affixes itself to her arm, bestowing on her unusual powers that she does not yet understand. As she struggles to discover the truth about her past and the legacy of the ancient weapon, Sara finds herself entangled in the growing mystery of the Witchblade.



From the Official Site:Adept at subterfuge and martial combat, Nottingham is a walking lethal weapon. A mysterious -- and deadly -- omnipresence, he has been under Irons' tutelage for most of his life. As Irons' right hand, one of his missions is to monitor Sara's use of the Witchblade. Always nearby when the Witchblade springs into action, Nottingham's relationship to Sara and the Blade remain a mystery at this time -- as is the depth of his relationship to Irons...
My Other Observations:
The ever present Ian Nottingham. What an enigma he is. By the end of Season One we say Ian change emotionally. His ties to Irons became weaker and his connection to Sara stronger. So conflicted was he between his loyalty to Irons and his growing attachment to Sara that Ian made the ultimate sacrifice and gave up his life trying to save her. His dying thoughts to Sara were a warning that there would be other Ian's after him. We saw Ian 2, evil and devoid of all emotion and of course our beloved original Ian is now back thanks to Sara's turning back of time but will Season Two bring other Bans?



From the Official Site:
An eccentric billionaire entrepreneur rumored to have made his fortune through illegal arms dealings, Irons' connection to the Witchblade runs deep. A collector of art and ancient weapons, the Witchblade was in his collection -- on loan to a Midtown museum -- when it was first "found" by Sara. He still bears the scars from his failed attempt to wield the weapon and is in many ways still possessed by its power. Irons continues to monitor Sara's use of the Witchblade as he runs his diverse corporate empire, Vorschlag Industries, which includes media holdings, real estate and bio-tech development.





From the Official Site:
A former champion surfer from the West Coast, Jake is now a rookie police detective assigned to train under Sara. Though his laid back style is a bit unconventional for a NY cop, his investigative skills are solid. His admiration for Sara may extend beyond their professional relationship.








From the Official Site:
Sara's former partner and now a ghost, Danny serves as Sara's touchstone, her guardian angel. Danny was killed in the line of duty while he and Sara were investigating reputed mobster and murderer, Tommy Gallo. The Witchblade allows Sara to see and converse with Danny, who continues to help and guide her from beyond the grave.









From the Official Site:A dealer in ancient artifacts who immediately recognizes the Witchblade's value and agrees to help Sara research the weapon's past. As one of the few people Sara can trust, Gabriel becomes and important ally and friend.







All right and if you were like Kim you have the like 2nd to last episode as your first entry how about being sane and having some common sense. All right All right I will be okay starting tomorrow I'm going to put up one episode per day that way you can fully understand the series. Um...of course these are stolen goods along with everything else on this site that I haven't written which you can tell because it's riddled with errors :) So yes tomorrow it will be Witchblade the movie which I think could be considered like any anime OVA you know in the real first episode you'll have little differences so yes I will get right on that night!

Well since Lauren went on a romp about Nny which I enjoyed throughly because I think every gets to that point of depression at least once in their life I know I have anyway but on to brighter things as I was saying since Lauren went on a ropm about Nny I believe I will talk about the Witchblade(which was going to be the new layout but trust me you don't want that run a search and see what you get)

Okay well the Show is basically about a woman named Sara Pezzini and her gaining knowledge of the Witchblade which she is now the weilder of. The Witchblade...well I'm not 100% sure how to describe it...it's a braclet that can turn into a sword ifnot full body armor. It warns it's weilder of danger, gives it's weilder unparalled strenght and a kind of six sense when she touches people. Before that it was weilded by a WWII female spy and previous to that Joan of Arc and that's why she heard voices and lead France to battle and before that a Celtic Goddess and well so on and so on. It is a source of feminent power, only women may weild the Witchblade and serve to better the human race, to purify it it is said in one case.Well yes that's the Witchblade.

Sara Pezzini is a New York cop who kinda accidentally gets the Witchblade. She knows nothing of it to her it's just a weird braclet. She kinda just acquired it when there was a shoot out in a Museum. Well after acquiring it her partner is killed murdered actually in fron of her and I do believe that is when she first uses the Witchblade. Well thanks to various characters who I will sum up in a moment she learns more about the Witchblade but basically the first season revolves around the secrets of the Witchblade.

Okay Characters...oh this will be interesting...according to season one

Kenneth Irons---Antagonist---okay throughout the show he hampers/helps her but he's shaddy and has his own agenda that I will talk about in a little bit...he basically owns the city or a least the half Trump dosn't want very powerful man very dangerous man

Danny Woo---Dead Semi-Omniscient Partner that appears to Sara

Gabriel Bowman---The guy that tells Sara about the Witchblade he's an ancient artifacts dealer, but get this he's like 23 he's so cute :)

Dante---Dirty Police Captain---Kinda the more Involved Antagoinist-In season one Sara's main agenda is to find out who killed her father and as the series moves on she thinks Dante is responsible and well he sends some thugs after her and he's the leader of the White Bulls--dirty cops

Jake---Undercover FBI agent possing as a Rookie to find out about the White Bulls---Sara's new Partner
And now the man I love best in this show the reason I watch this show

Ian Nottingham---Anti-Hero of sorts---As you people know I'm a sucker for romance well here we go again. Ian has been raised from childhood by Kennth Irons to protect the next Weilder of theWitchblade and also to serve as a bodyguard to Irons(later we find out Ian is Irons's son but I'm still fideling with that Idea) Well okay umm where to begin with Ian...he is semi-omniscent also...he gives Sara tips and clues to where to find things and get information from...and in the process should danger rear it's ugly head he will defend her. Not to say Sara Trusts him that would be BS. He mainly serves those two purposes throughout most of the season one until the last three episodes which I HAVE to rant about since those are my favorites.Here's going in order.

In this particular one Ian has killed a man threatening to kill his master Kennth Irons. Well I don't know why but he turns himself in to Sara in the most OMG kinsd of ways let's role the clip!

(Sara opens the door to her office and sees Ian sitting on top of one of those really wide and semi tall black filing cabingets)
Ian (looking at floor): Relax Sara I would do anything to please you
Sara: Then stop with th Psycho Vampire Routine
(Sara walks into the room closes the door to her office behind her)
Ian (looks up at her):I love you. (looks back down) in ungaurded moments
Sara(big ole eyes):what the hell are you doing herr?
Ian: Turnig myself in
(he offers his hands to Sara looking down)

No I don’t have this memorised I watched it a few days ago in preperation for the season premier but yeah Ian...has a child like way of looking at love and it's that reason and his speach that I love his character so much. He's been told about the Witchblade weilder since he was a child so to him Sara is the Knight in Shinnig armor to the modern day little girl. Very sweet guy Love his character and it only goes up from here. In the Season finale he sacrafices his life for Sara(yes I cried I wept I bawled like a baby) but that's later let me try to go in order

Stupid people should have to wear signs that just say "I'm Stupid". Thatway you wouldn't rely on them, would you? You wouldn't ask them anything.

It would be like, "Excuse me...oops...never mind, didn't see your sign."

How The Sign is Useful

It's like before my wife and I moved. Our house was full of boxes and there was a U-Haul truck in our driveway. My neighbor comes over and says,
"Hey, you moving?"
"Nope. We just pack our stuff up once or twice a week to see how many boxes it takes. Here's your sign."

A couple of months ago I went fishing with a buddy of mine, we pulled his boat into the dock, I lifted up this big ol'stringer of bass and this idiot on the dock goes,
"Hey, y'all catch all them fish?"
"Nope. Talked 'em into giving up. Here's your sign."

I was watching one of those animal shows on the Discovery Channel. There was a guy inventing a shark bite suit. And there's only one way to test it.

"Alright, Jimmy, you got that shark suit on, it looks good... They want you to jump into this pool of sharks, and you tell us if it hurts when they bite you."
"Well, all right, but hold my sign. I don't wanna lose it."

Last time I had a flat tire, I pulled my truck into one of those side-of-the-road gas stations. The attendant walks out, looks at my truck,looks at me, and I SWEAR he said, "Tire go flat?"

I couldn't resist. I said, "Nope. I was driving around and those other three just swelled right up on me. Here's your sign."

We were trying to sell our car about a year ago. A guy came over to the house and drove the car around for about 45 minutes. We get back to the house, he gets out of the car, reaches down and grabs the exhaust pipe, then says, "Darn that's hot!" See, if he'd been wearing his sign, I could have stopped him.

I learned to drive an 18-wheeler in my days of adventure. Wouldn't you know, I misjudged the height of a bridge. The truck got stuck and I couldn't get it out, no matter how I tried. I radioed in for help and eventually a local cop shows up to take the report. He went through his basic questioning...okay...no problem. I thought for sure he was clear of needing a sign...until he asked,
"So, is your truck stuck?"
I couldn't help myself! I looked at him, looked back at the rig and then back to him and said, "No, I'm delivering a bridge... here's your
sign."

I stayed late at work one night and a co-worker looked at me and said,"Are you still here?"
I replied, "No. I left about 10 minutes ago. Here's your sign."

The next time someone says something stupid ask them where their sign is.

LOL now for the moment you’ve all been waiting for WHAT THE HELL IS THIS SERIES ABOUT?

Dn Angel ::basic information::
Dn Angel, a manga by Yukiru Sugisaki, is about a not-so ordinary boy named Niwa Daisuke and his alter ego, Dark Mousy. When Daisuke sees his crush, Harada Risa, he transform into Dark. But if Dark sees HIS crush, Harada Riku, well...needless to say, he transform back into Daisuke. ~_~;; Overall, Dn Angel is a very cute, shounen-version of a magical girl story. ^_^

Dn Angel ::character information::
::Niwa Daisuke:: Daisuke is one of the 2 main characters in Dn Angel. He transformed into Dark during his 14th birthday while thinking about him and Harada Risa (he confronted her and told her he likes her).

::Dark Mousy:: Dark is the famous thief that existed even 40 years ago. He loves to tease Daisuke. Dark also has a crush...the twin sister of the person that Dai-chan likes. ^.^

::With:: With is the cute little bunny-lookalike that follows Daisuke around. He transform into a big black-winged creature when he's with Dark. With also has a habit of pronouncing Daisuke's name wrong...he says it "Daisuki". ^.^;;

::Hiwatari Satoshi:: Satoshi is the cutie in Dai-chan's class. He's the one with the glasses and is often found writing in a small notepad. He's a smart boy and heads the police team that's in charge of capturing Dark. It seems that Sat-chan's family has been trying to capture Dark for a long time.

::Harada Riku & Harada Risa:: Riku and Risa are twins, Riku being oldest with the short hair and Risa the younger with the longer hair. We do not know who Riku likes but it seems that Risa likes Dark (then again, who won't fall for this bishounen?). ^.^
Info FromHere

Niwa Daisuke just turned 14 years old and has been rejected by the girl that he likes. After being rejected by his first love (technically it’s a crush since she never liked him), Risa, a series of strange events happen to Daisuke. First of all, he has been brought up in a very bizarre way. When he goes home, he has to pass a sequence of traps before being able to enter his own home. And these traps were tests created by his mother and grandfather. When he comes home, depressed because he had just been rejected, he closes himself in his room.
All of the sudden, a transformation occurs and his body becomes stronger, taller, and very handsome (but he was cute before too). His mother tells him that now he is Dark Mousy. Dark is a whole other personality, it’s like he borrows Daisuke’s body but makes him bigger too. And in order to transform back to his regular self, he would have to steal the Virgin Statue. Watching out and waiting to catch Dark is Satoshi, a very cold looking guy from Daisuke’s school. Later, Daisuke finds out that as long as he is still in love with Risa, his body is subject to change into Dark. His mom explains that Dark’s DNA reacts to his feelings of love. BTW, Risa is a twin. Her older twin sister is Riku.
So Daisuke likes Risa, and Dark likes Riku. How does this work out?? And what is the true meaning behind Dark?? And why is Ridu after Dark?? I guess I’ll have to wait to find out.
