Kill Bill Page #15

O-REN LEAPS in the air

does a Somersault over the Bride's head, landing behind her

opponent. She brings her Sword down in a Slashing Swing...

SLASHING The BRIDE

across her back - Spinning her around...

O-Ren goes in for the kill...The Bride meets her blade... The

Blades Clash and Lock...The Two Women's faces come together

as the Blades become entangled...

O-Ren moves her arm in a counter-clockwise motion that

loosens the grip enough to bring her sword handle hard into

The Bride's mouth...

Knocking her backwards over a small, stone bench - Flat on

her ass in a koi pond.

- The Combat Guitar Stops -

O-Ren doesn't charge the fallen blonde, She laughs;

O-REN(ENGLISH)

Silly Caucasian girl likes to play

with samurai swords. Bill might of

humored you, but you will find

neither humor nor mercy at my

blade. Now unless you intend to

commit sepeku among the koi, stand

up and fight. You may not be able

to fight like a samurai, but you

can at least die like a samurai.

The Combat Guitar starts again...As The Bride slowly rises

out of the koi pond. She brings up her sword and Says Calmly

to O-Ren in Japanese;

THE BRIDE(JAPANESE)

Attack me. With everything you

have.

The Two Women Clash Swords furiously, their attack ends with

The Bride's Striking O-Ren - not fatally - but deep. They

separate...

...breathing hard...Cold Air coming out of their mouths like

two locomotives...

O-Ren looks down to her wound, then back up to The Bride. The

respect for the Bride's ability is transparent.

The Two Women Circle Stalk each other again...

Red Blood running down Yellow Legs onto Yellow Sneakers...

Wooden Clogs crunching the Snow, Blood trail dripping down

legs staining White Socks with Red...

They Attack, the Geisha figurine and The tall western girl

with the mane of Whipping Blonde Hair. They Swing - Twist -

Turn - Clash, matching blow for blow till they both back off.

Both Women are out of breath and have to stop to recuperate.

As they both drink the harsh cold air into their lungs,

leaving red blood stains in the white snow, the two females

have the same thought. The next clash will be their last.

O-REN(JAPANESE)

I apologize for ridiculing you

earlier.

THE BRIDE(JAPANESE)

Accepted.

They continue breathing...

THE BRIDE(JAPANESE)

Ready?

O-REN(JAPANESE)

Yes.

The Flamenco Guitar begins again, as The Two Women Circle

each other for their final attack.

With all the quickness and skill at their command, they clash

in a superb display of Samurai Swordplay...TILL...They Find

themselves on opposite sides of a garden wall...

...The Bride and O-Ren both begin Running diagonally through

the snow, Swords held up high, Facing each other, Continuing

to run even after they passed the wall, Screaming their

Samurai hearts out...

UNTIL...

They both SWING...

...can't tell who got who...

A SCALP OF LONG, BLACK HAIR FLIES THROUGH THE AIR, landing in

the white snow.

CU O-REN ISHII

facing away from the Bride. Sword still in her hand. We see

she doesn't have the TOP OF HER HEAD ON. A touch of her BRAIN

is exposed. Blood Droplets streak her face like raindrops.

The Queen of the Tokyo Underworld, who's regime has just

ended with one swing, stares off into space.

O-REN(ENGLISH)

That really was a Hattori Hanzo

sword...

Her sword FALLS from her grip...in the snow by her feet.

O-REN(ENGLISH)

I always dreamed of owning one...

O-Ren FALLS to her knees, toppling forward.

Left Cheek in the snow, just barely alive, She says;

O-REN(ENGLISH)

Did he make it for you?

THE BRIDE(ENGLISH)

Yes.

The Last thing she says before she dies;

O-REN(ENGLISH)

...He must of liked you.

With her cheek resting against the snow, her eyes close and

she's gone.

The BRIDE

removes a white handkerchief(The One we saw her sewing

earlier with "Bill" in the corner), and uses it to wipe the

blood, once belonging to the first name on her death list,

off her Hanzo Steel.

EX CU THE HANZO SWORD

is returned back to its sheath. The LION'S HEAD that Hanzo

carved into the wood seems pleased.

CUT TO:

The BRIDE

now wearing a yellow, faceless motorcycle crash helmet on her

head, stands FRAMED in a TRUNK SHOT.

SOFIE FATALE:

Minus an arm, lies curled up in the trunk of her MAZDA XOXO.

The BRIDE slams the trunk, SCREEN BOES BLACK...

The MAZDA driving down the road at supersonic speed.

The BRIDE

behind the wheel wearing her crash helmet. It looks like an

insert from "GRAND PRIX."

POV THROUGH WINDSHIELD

car speeding...then stopping.

BLACK SCREEN:

The BRIDE lifts up trunk lid, we look up at her FRAMED in the

TRUNK SHOT. Helmet on head making her faceless, gold Deadly

Viper syringe in her hand.

When she speaks it comes out of a VOICE BOX at the bottom of

the helmet. Turning her voice deeper and electronically

spooky. The two women speak Japanese to each other.

THE BRIDE(JAPANESE)

I've kept you alive for one reason.

Information. Being O-Ren's lawyer,

I take it you're familiar with

Bill?

SOFIE(JAPANESE)

Yes.

THE BRIDE(JAPANESE)

In fact, I'd guesstimate, you

worked for Bill before O-Ren, and

that's how it is you came to work

for O-Ren. Am I correct?

SOFIE(JAPANESE)

Yes.

THE BRIDE(JAPANESE)

I thought so. Give me the arm you

have left.

SOFIE(JAPANESE)

Why?

THE BRIDE(JAPANESE)

I want information. Now gimme your

arm.

Sofie offers up her remaining arm.

She injects Sofie with the gold syringe.

THE BRIDE(JAPANESE)

The cocktail racing through your

bloodstream at this moment is

Bill's own recipe. He calls it "The

Undisputed Truth."

Sofie is injected.

THE BRIDE(JAPANESE)

Okay, first things first. Where was

the other Yubari sister? Yuki?

SOFIE(JAPANESE)

Yuki's sick. She went home early.

THE BRIDE(JAPANESE)

Do tell? What's wrong with her?

SOFIE(JAPANESE)

She has a cold.

THE BRIDE(JAPANESE)

Awwww poor baby. What do you think

she'll do when she finds out what

happened?

SOFIE(JAPANESE)

She'll wail with grief.

SHOCK CUT TO:

YUKI YUBARI upon hearing the news of her sister's death...

She SCREAMS!

BACK TO SOFIE:

SOFIE:

She'll drink excessively.

BACK TO YUKI:

Big bottle of sake in her mouth pointed bottom up.

BACK TO SOFIE:

SOFIE:

She'll start trouble.

BACK TO YUKI:

sitting at a bar in drunken stupor. An OLDER JAPANESE MAN in

a business suit sits next to her at the bar...he puts the

make on her.

BUSINESS SUIT(JAPANESE)

Do you like Ferraris?

Yuki staring out into space, says with a drunken voice;

YUKI(JAPANESE)

Ferrari...Italian trash.

She slowly turns to face the older Japanese man in the

business suit.

YUKI(JAPANESE)

Do you find me hot?

The man in the business suit giggles at her boldness; she

gets annoyed;

YUKI(JAPANESE)

Don't laugh! Do you want to f***

me, yes or no?

BUSINESS SUIT(JAPANESE)

Yes.

THEN...

He lets out a GRUNT coming from below.

We see she has stabbed him in the belly with a samurai short

sword, and is slowly dragging the blade across his abdomen,

creating a big red grin across his mid-section.

TWO SHOT YUKI AND BUSINESS SUIT

Yuki focused, Business Suit penetrated...She opens him up

more...he feels every inch of the blade's progress.
