CHOSEN ONE

BY JON COWAN

ROXTON: The jungle is no place for hide and seek and traveling alone. All you’ll find is death.

GIDEON: You have your woman to protect.

MARGUERITE: Protect me? You think he protects me?

ROXTON: I’m going with or without you.

MARGUERITE: You’re worried about leaving him alone but me you’re willing to abandon. Men!

MARGUERITE: What the hell were you doing?

GIDEON: A warrior never turns from his enemies.

ROXTON: If you have let them pass, they wouldn’t have been our enemies!

MARGUERITE: You want to keep that alive? Keep him away from me!

GIDEON: I have spent my whole life preparing for this journey. I can’t fail.

ROXTON: No! Won’t fail, that’s determination. Can’t fail, that’s arrogance. That’s death. 

MARGUERITE: Imagine thinking that your brother was dead and then finding out he wasn’t. I wonder what that feels like?

ROXTON: I’ll never know.

ROXTON: Dying is not an option.

GIDEON: No, it’s inevitable.

GIDEON: You think I want to die?

ROXTON: Yes! Because right now that’s easier than living. I know how that feels, Gideon. There’s a big difference between honour and guilt.

MARGUERITE: The boy’s done us proud. They grow up so fast these days.

ROXTON: How motherly of you. I wouldn’t have thought there was a maternal bone in your body.

MARGUERITE: How little you know me. On the other hand, why would I need children when I have you?
