[Inset] Close on Hellcat, her smile falling as she turns towards a sound.

Hellcat: Now we can…

SFX: CRUNCH!

Hellcat: What--?!

...

[1] Wider shot. Crimson Dynamo, Darkstar, and Ursa Major stand over the fallen form of Valkyrie, who has obviously just been sucker-punched ****. All have turned their heads towards Hellcat, their expressions hard. Hellcat is reacting with shock, and has started to move towards Valkyrie. But Red Guardian has grabbed her wrist, his expression sad.

Red Guardian: (in small text) I am sorry, gentle lady.

[Inset] Jen’s eyes are barely open, her eyeballs rolled back in their sockets.

[2] Back at the palace. We are looking down at Jen, in her human form. She is lying on an opulent four-poster bed, her expression still dazed and barely awake. Her arms are stretched out over her head, her hands contained in a large set of power-dampening cuffs, which are in turn chained to the headboard. Her legs are spread, a chain connecting each ankle to a corner bedpost.
