(Introduction)
SCENE 1
Marshal Jetstream is out of town investigating the murder of another Marshal.
JETSTREAM (Voiceover Narration): "Today, I was called to get to the bottom of a Marshal's death. It could mean life or death. As I sit astride my horse, I realize it could be the last time that I mount this horse. Caution and diligence are my most important factors in this situation."

SCENE 2
In a deserted town currently without law and order, Marshal Jetstream is trying to find out who killed the previous Marshal. In town, she asks the townspeople if they have any idea who might've had a reason to kill the Marshal.
JETSTREAM : "Do any of you know anyone who had a good motive? Anything?"
The townspeople refuse to cooperate.
JETSTREAM: "Well do you? Anyone?
The town still doesn't respond.
JETSTREAM: "Look, I wanna help you all, but I need something to go on."
(Town murmuring)
JETSTREAM : "I'll check with the doctor and see if they know anything."

SCENE 3
Marshal Jetstream heads to the doctor's office in search of clues.
MALE DOCTOR : "Well now, you must be the Millennium City Marshal, Jetstream. We sent for you."
JETSTREAM : "Yes, doctor. I believe you know why I'm here. I tried getting a lead to the murderer but the citizens aren't talking. What's wrong with this town? They won't cooperate with me. I wanna help, but I need something to go on."
MALE DOCTOR : "Ever since our Marshal was killed, the town stopped having faith in law and order, most likely out of fear. You know, I briefly operated on him before he died from his injury. Here, take this. Does that provide you with a clue?"
JETSTREAM : "Yes, doctor, it does, but this could only be....it has a base diameter of .471 inches. This is none other than a forty four forty bullet.
MALE DOCTOR : "I thought that might be of some assistance to you. Well, off you go. Take care Marshal and be safe.
JETSTREAM : "Thank you, Doctor, for this."

SCENE 4
After leaving the doctor's office, Marshal Jetstream keeps watching for any attack while remaining discreet.
JETSTREAM : "With this bullet, this means that it came from a Winchester model rifle. I've got to keep my distance, and watch for the attack. Whoever they are, they know I'm here. They WILL attack."
While waiting for the attacker to come, Jetstream decides to go to the saloon for a quick drink.
JETSTREAM : "A shot of whiskey, please."
BARTENDER (pouring the whiskey) : "Sure thing. Hmm, never seen you around here before. What is a pretty woman like you doing in a town like this?"
JETSTREAM : "I'm strictly here on business, nothing more."
BARTENDER : "Suit yourself."
(Bartender recalls her likeness)
BARTENDER: "Hey I think I heard of a lady who wears those colors, famous for her fast gun-handling skills. Her name was....Jetstream!!!! You're Jetstream, aren't you?"
JETSTREAM: "Yes I am. You didn't know I was comin'?"
BARTENDER: "Ohh, no one tells me anything anymore."
As Marshal Jetstream enjoys her drink, a young man came and introduced himself to her.
YOUNG MAN (Eric) : "Excuse me, you must be the Millennium City Marshal, right?"
JETSTREAM : "That's right. Can I help you?"
ERIC : "Put it this way, I can help YOU. I just want you to know, I'm not looking to be like everyone else in this town. This town has been in shambles ever since the Marshal was killed. My name is Eric. I wanna help you, and I want you to know, I got your back."
JETSTREAM : "I appreciate that, Eric. I'm glad you're on my side. I realize that if I'm gonna catch this person, I'll need some help."
ERIC : "We'll start now. You take the back of the general store, I'll take the livery stable. We'll work the murderer from both sides. As I'm sure you know, the killer most likely knows you're here. He'll come gunnin' soon."
JETSTREAM : "Right!"

SCENE 5
As Marshal Jetstream and Eric took their positions, they waited patiently, anticipating any possible attack.
ERIC (thinking): "The Marshal came here to help uncover this mystery. I don't know how, but whenever this person shot the previous Marshal, they vanished into obscurity, almost instantly. The fact that we couldn't figure it out ourselves prove this mysterious person is no stranger to crime."
Moments later....
(Gunshot)
(Gunshot)
Shots are fired toward Jetstream.
Jetstream and Eric try to figure out where the shots are coming from.
JETSTREAM (thinking): "Wherever the shots are coming from, they know where I am, but I can't see THEM. I'll try to get a closer look."
Marshal Jetstream gives Eric a signal (opening and closing her left hand) to let him know she is going to move around the area.
ERIC: "I think I know where the shots are coming from. I gotta tell the Marshal somehow."
After relocating, Jetstream sees the man who is shooting at her.
ERIC (thinking): "Did she find where the shots were coming from? Either way I gotta cover her."
Jetstream and Eric trade shots with the man in an intense shootout.
A couple shots later, as the man pokes out to shoot Jetstream, she lands a shot, knocking him down.
Marshal Jetstream then walks over to the person she shot, thinking he is dead. As she then walks away, the man tries to get his rifle and shoot Jetstream from behind.
ERIC : "MARSHAL!"
JETSTREAM: "!!!!????"
Eric was able to kill the man with a quick shot, saving Marshal Jetstream.
JETSTREAM : "You saved me, Eric. I would have been shot had you not been there. Thank you."
ERIC : "No problem, Marshal. I knew you were sent here to help us out. I couldn't let anything happen to you."
Marshal Jetstream and Eric notice the man's rifle.
JETSTREAM : "Well, there's the rifle. No doubt that's where this bullet came from."
ERIC : "Yes, ma'am. That must be the bullet that killed the Marshal."
The town citizens congratulate Marshal Jetstream and Eric for saving their town.
ELDERLY MALE CITIZEN: "You know, young lady, we didn't have much faith in you when you came, but it's certainly been restored, hasn't it? You and Eric saved this town."
TOWN CITIZENS: (Yelling in agreement.)
FEMALE TOWN CITIZEN: "How can we thank you both, Miss......
JETSTREAM: "Jetstream, and you can all just rest easy. I want nothing in return. You all should be thanking Eric here. If it wasn't for him, the killer would still be terrorizing your town. I have a hunch that this town is gonna experience real peace and order."
FEMALE TOWN CITIZEN: "You're right. We're indebted to you, Eric."
ERIC: "I can't accept anything. Just knowing that we can rest easy now is good enough."
JETSTREAM : "I have to thank you once again for saving me, Eric. You know, you're pretty capable with a gun."
ERIC : "I've had some practice. I believe that a gun is essential to surviving in the west as long as you walk a straight line. Do you know anyone that could maybe take over as Marshal?"
JETSTREAM : "I believe I have someone in mind, and I might be able to get him here tomorrow."
ERIC : " That's good. I have trust in you, Marshal. You must be very respected in your town."
JETSTREAM : "I do a fair job, Millennium City's a good town to live in.
ERIC : "I see. I'm glad I could help you today."
JETSTREAM : "You know what you said about walking a straight line? Well I think no one does that as well as you. You remind me of my other friend Dan McKay. He is my Deputy Marshal."
ERIC : "Thank you, Marshal....well, you'd best be getting back to your town. I think I can handle matters from here."
JETSTREAM: "Right. I'll be sure to come by this way again and see how all of you are doing. Goodbye Eric and thank you once more. Goodbye, everyone!!!!"
ERIC & THE TOWN CITIZENS: "Goodbye, Miss Jetstream."
Marshal Jetstream then rides back to Millennium City, with her Deputy Dan McKay waiting for her.
