(In the Imperial City (One of Samuri Summit's little towns), the Vampire citizens watch happily as the Imperial City celebrates the Vampire victory with a parade.)
Parade Leader:
Make way for the heroes of the Vampire Clan!
[Vanez, the Gang of Three and the other soldiers follow glumly behind, and behind them is a large group of Kabuki performers. Mickey comes riding up beside Vanez]
Mickey:
Vanez!
Vanez:
Mickey?
Mickey:
The Vampenze are alive! They're in the city!
Vanez:
You don't belong here, Mickey. Go home.
Mickey:
Vanez, I saw them in the mountains! You have to believe me!
Vanez:
Why should I?
Mickey:
Why else would I come back? You said you'd trust Kori. Why is Mickey any different?
[Vanez rides around her. To the Gang of Three:]
Keep your eyes open. I know they're here. Yah!
Ric:
[as Mickey dismounts Khan]
Now where are you going?
Mickey:
To find someone who will believe me!
[She hurries off into the crowd. The Vampire Army climbs the steps to the Great Palace, followed by the Kabuki performers. Paris meets them.]
Paris:
My children! Heaven smiles down upon the Middle Kingdom!
Samuri Summit will sleep safely tonight, thanks to our brave warriors!
Mickey:
[to a citizen]
Sir, Paris's in danger!
Man:
Huh!
Mickey:
But the Vampenze are HERE!
[to another man]
Please, you have to help!
Man:
Eh!
Mickey:
[to Ric]
No one will listen!
Ric:
Huh? Oh, I'm sorry, did you say something?
Mickey:
Ric ...
Ric:
Hey, you're a girl again, remember?
Vanez:
Your Majesty, I present to you the sword of Mr. Tiny.
Paris:
I know what this means to you, Captain Blane. Mika would have been very proud.
