DC Showcase: Superman\Shazam!: The Return of Black Adam Page #5

---

But you try changing clothes

in a hybrid.

[GRUNTING]

Green Arrow.

Justice League of America.

I'm here to help.

[HENCHMEN COUGHING]

[GUNFIRE]

Oh, crap.

[GUNFIRE]

[BEEPING]

[BOTH YELL]

Okay, princess.

Arms around my neck and don't let go.

[GROANS]

Merlyn, the bird has flown.

HENCHMAN 2 [OVER RADIO]:

You have your green light.

[BOTH PANTING]

GREEN ARROW:

Come on!

[PLANE DRONING]

GREEN ARROW:

Whoa!

That dragon almost got us.

You do realize I'm 10

and do not require fairy-tale metaphors?

Sorry.

It's my first time rescuing royalty.

It is quite a forgivable sin...

...Robin Hood.

Thanks. I, uh...

[GRUNTING]

[GREEN ARROW YELLS]

[GREEN ARROW GROANING]

Your leg.

Yeah. Minor setback. Unh.

[YELLS]

[YELLS]

You're being very brave, princess.

I'm proud of you.

Can you make a bandage,

tie it around my leg?

Yes, of course.

Any idea why these guys are trying

to kill you, princess?

Because I'm not a princess.

My father died last night.

I'm the queen now.

You're even braver than I thought.

Staying put's no longer an option,

Your Majesty. Get ready to run.

You can run?

GREEN ARROW:

You've got an uncle, right? A count?

My only living relative.

Count Werner Vertigo.

- So if something happens to you...

- He becomes king of Vlatava.

Now it all makes sense.

He's taken her back inside.

Inform the client.

[HENCHMAN 3 GROWLS]

[BOTH GRUNTING]

HENCHMAN 3:

Kill you! Kill you! Kill you!

Me? Weren't you after the kid?

- Excuse me?

- Kidding, Your Kidness. Kidding.

[GRUNTING]

[GROWLS]

[YELLS]

[YELLS]

[GRUNTING IN SLOW MOTION]

[PANTING]

[YELLS]

[CHUCKLES THEN GRUNTS]

PERDITA:

I got you! I got you!

GREEN ARROW:

No! Princess, let me go. Let me...

[PERDITA SCREAMING

AND GREEN ARROW YELLING]

[BOTH GRUNT]

So, Arrow, once again

you've stumbled onto my stage...

...and horned in on my act.

That's me.

Always hogging the limelight.

I seem to recall you lost our last duel.

All eight of our last duels.

- You lost?

- Yeah, but I've been practicing. A lot.

One arrow each?

I accept your challenge. On three.

- One.

- Two.

MERLYN & GREEN ARROW:

Three.

[COUGHING]

What?

[GROANING]

MAN:

If you want something done right...

PERDITA:
Unh.

- Vertigo.

Count Vertigo to you, peasant.

[BOTH GROAN]

Soon to be King Vertigo...

...once I've dispatched you

and the little bi...

WOMAN:

Watch your mouth.

[VERTIGO YELLS]

[SCREAMING]

[YELLS THEN GRUNTS]

[VERTIGO GROANS]

[GREEN ARROW GROANING]

Ahh. What would you do without me?

Well, now that you mention it,

and since I'm on my knees anyway...

I can't live without you, babe.

Literally.

Say yes.

After all, every queen needs a consort.

She's right.

Every queen does.
