"But there was a trial. It was the twilight of the gods."
Her two archer daughters follow the same from the sides of the fore plates, staring coldly. She looks to the eldest, the eldest looks back, a nod.
They throw the daughter's bow.
Boadicea kneels, a sad smile, a tear. She holds the bow and twisted armor pieces to her chest, head bowed as they stare. A quiver lands before her, arrows dumping. She slumps in tears gathering it. A sword. A dagger. Waterskin.
Felicia - "What are you ? What happened to ... this ... ?" She runs a high hand across the broken wing.
The UFO drops to wheels and zips through the bushes and off over the golf course to away. After a stare, Felicia looks over the damage, feeling over the charred out gaps along Sally's hull.
Felicia - Stepping back, "This is bad." She looks up at Hector's top. "Isn't it."

Felicia - "Okay." She pulls the phone on her front where a schoolbus of insane children pulls up creaming from its windows.

Boadicea's
twisted piece armor looking as awesome as intended, the maiden skipping
from dervish to form around her in nearly a dance.
Maiden - "Boadicea ... "
...
Boadicea - "What."
Maiden - "Do you have any food ?"
...
Boadicea - "No. And if you must keep mispronouncing my name, please just call me Buda. It's ... what they used to call me."
Maiden - "You mean like the ... "
Buda - "No."

Maiden - "Oh."

Outside the school where the kids all run in circles for the door, some missing and running into the wall. Felicia talks on the phone while off in the background one tries jumping through a closed window and bounces off again and again, children inside cheering him on.
Agent Geneva
- "I got the message. But you should know I'm not the kind of agent you think I am. We've settled
them. And yes we can help you.
"And then we settle your parents."
Felicia - "Ah. So ... you're the kind of agent who settles children's parents."
AG
- "In some certain situations in which we have purveyance, yes. I'm
the kind who settles it all. But we keep them locked down for now. And
you."
She hangs up annoyed looking up at the bus.

Agent Geneva - To another agent standing alongside, "I hate kids so fucking much."
Agent Blank - (jogging tracker) "How long ?"
AG - "Until we find out if she's worth filling a tube. Or not."
...
Blank - "I hate those fucking gigs."
AG - Looks at him smiles, then turns for the work crews. Points up toward Hector, "Mixed opinions. We need this, you need that, and they need these operational. So let's get hop, hop, hop on ... to it." Turns walking.
...
Blank - "Hey !"
AG - Turns stopping, "Yah."
Blank - "What about Sanctuary ? You know they protect their students over all."
AG - "We need an agent there. And we need that agent aware, of her operational environment. Just like the last one was."
Blank - "The last one betrayed you."
AG - "Did she now ?" Smiles, looks back to Hector, at the agent again, then turns back to it.

Another car roars past in the desert.
Maiden - "It's just ... I didn't know I would get 'hungry'. It isn't really something you'd think of ..."
...
Boadicea - "Me neither."
Another car roars past.
