What do you mean by "to complete"? What kind of "completion" are you
expecting for that script?
I'm thinking in forcing ScriptA to be run in a very early stage to give
some time before ScriptB is called or adding a "sleep" stanza to delay
the time of execution.

I'm not aware of any specific instruction/option for that :-?
There's a couple of wiki pages to get a general idea of the available
dependency boot options:
