EXT. PLANTET BABYLON
The shine of the bright moon lit the blizzard's night on this mysterious planet.
Ash rained in AMITAI's hair as he strode through the thick snow.
cough, cough.
AMITAI
Baby, are you ok!?
princess Daenerys
I'm fine, worry less of me and more about finding a way off this burning ice rock.
AMITAI
Oh, well never mind, spoiled brat.
As the two walked holding hands, Amitai's hands seemed massive compared to the little girl whose fingers barely pointed out of her loose long sleeve shirt.
princess Daenerys
Amitai, When will I be able to meet my mom?
He grunted at her question not wanting to answer.
AMITAI
Right now, our number one priority is getting off this planet, We can worry about your mother later.
princess Daenerys
But that's what you told me last time stop redirecting my question.
Amitai laughs deeply.
princess Daenerys
What's so funny father; I don't understand, how can you laugh when we're stuck in this situation.
AMITAI
Oh, it's nothing sweetie you just made a thing of a funny story with your mother.
princess Daenerys
What story, you said you told me all the story with mom?!
Amitai quickly glances away to hide his devilish smile.
AMITAI
Well, that's because this story isn't any ordinary story, and your mother would probably be mad if I told this to you.
And just as planned Princess Daenerys jumps on Amitai back with excitement.
AMITAI
alright alright ill tell you... but you have to pinky swear that you won't mention this to anyone, not even your mother!
princess Daenerys
But why aren't all of the stories true?
AMITAI
Yes, they are, but I'm fairly certain if she found out I told you that story... she would kill me 1000 times.
princess Daenerys
Mother would never, how dare you say such an awful thing.
AMITAI
Trust me kid your mother isn't the one to play with, so do you want to hear the story or not.
princess Daenerys
You know I do!
AMITAI
Well alright then, do you ultra pinky promises to not tell a soul.
princess Daenerys
I pinky promise
Daenerys groans as she sticks her pinky out sealing the promise.
AMITAI
Oh ok, little one. This story begins over 500 years ago, before the lands split. In a long-forgotten kingdom known today as the lost city of Atlantis. One fateful day in the city one loving couple was ordered to meet the King of Atlantis in his throne room. They quickly received news from the current king that in 9 months They will give birth to a beautiful but dangerously powerful baby girl destined to save The once proud city from its terrible fate or be the cause of its destruction.

KING KIRA
Well for the last few weeks I’ve been having the same nightmare of Atlantic falling to the depths of the seas, and in those nightmares I do the best I can. As a king,a warrior, a father, and most importantly as a living creature. With all of the sincerity i can ever dream of giving you both I have to inform you that your daughter can not be born.
Marina&RAHIM
My king what do you mean!
KING KIRA
Your daughter is going to destroy the entire city the moment she takes her very first breath. The first night I had the nightmare I remember I was sitting on the roof of thr palacce with you both when Marina went into labor.

In his efforts to save your life Rahim uses a forbidden spell amd forcefully summons the god of the seas himself.
RAHIM
No!
KING KIRA
Yes and unfortunately for us all he was not happy as you interrupted the meeting of the Divine waters. He’s rage was too much for the city to withstand and our city began collapsing into the sea. I tried my best to hold the city up for as long as I could while the citizens got to escaped but I couldn’t say you.

RAHIM
So we’re all going to die.
KING KIRA

Marina
But there must be another way right, there has to be!?
RAHIM
We just just need to ask for the Sea gods help before the meting.
KING KIRA
Unfortunately, I already tried to reach him but I was told the meeting already started, two weeks ago.
RAHIM
Well why don’t we just have the baby outside of the city, that way the city isn’t destroyed.
Marina
We’re too deep in the Ocean, if we were to leave the protective bubble around the city the water pressure would crush us.

Kira sits back down on his throne Rubbing his chin.

KING KIRA
They will be hard to convince, they always disagree with any new policy or agenda i purpose.
RAHIM
Yeah I’ve been paying more attention to Ocean council and the Strategies They are pushing to their supports.
KING KIRA
Exactly and those supports keep them empowered to achieve they’re corruption.
Marina
What if we pray to another god and speak for it’s protection while I’m in labor.
KING KIRA
The sea god would kill you.
RAHIM

KING KIRA
Not many nothing that I can think of, but for now Marina get some rest, Rahim, you too let me see what I can do for my friends.

INT. king kira inner CIRCLE room- late night
The members of the Royal Waters council sat together across the table from Kira, who alone sat under the majestic authority of its grace. soundless as it pours continuously down into the pawn where Kira rested on a lowly enlarged blossom.
King Kira
Council members, it's been some time since we all had to meet here.
council member Ron
Your highness, it truly has been, if only it had been longer.
Ron mumbles under his breath.
King Kira
What was that Ron!?
council member danny
He was just saying how we can't wait to get started.
Danny stands up from his chair AND APPROACHES the King.
danny
My King, I am nothing more than what I can provide for this kingdom. Like my father and his father before him we at the house of Danville will gladly sacrifice anything for the betterment of the people.
king kira
Thank you Danny for your family's support for the throne has is one of the main reasons this city still stands today.
Kira waves his hand and Danny takes his seat.
king kira
But unfortunately Danny your family can not be the only house supporting us anymore. Today I've summoned you all here because our cherished city of Atlantis is about to crumble into the seas.
Danny
Wait what are you talking about, Atlantis is doing great. The economy is up unemployment is down, and there has been no violent crime in 500 years.
council member jeff
He's right, our kingdom is at its peak right now.
council member reck
The king is obviously trying to scare us so he can push some sorta agenda, so go ahead and spit it out.
Suddenly King Kira instantly appeared in front of reck standing in the table.
Without hesitation he kicks Reck’s face in the face and slams his head into the table.
KING KIRA
I’m will not tolerate anymore disrespectful behavior from anyone. Your places here weee given and not earned, so it troubles me little to get rid of you!
RON
Oh yeah!
He jumps on the table throwing a punch at Kira, but he dogdes kicking him in his stomach onto the floor.
KING KIRA
Now return back to your chair Ron.
Wheezing on the ground Ron struggles to cough his breath.
KING KIRA
Stop with the Theatrics Ron and return to your chair at once!
Kira eyes blazing with furry he looks at the other council members and they scurry to Ron helping him to his chair.
KING KIRA
As I stated before our… no my city is in danger. In once month time there will a girl born with these city walls so powerful that her very first breath will be the down fall of Atlantic.
RON
Why don’t we just kill the baby, or the mother.
Ron coughs.
DANNY
We can’t kill them their innocent people.
RECK
But killing either one or will nip the problem in the bud, I mean why waste brain power and resources on something like this.
