The script i'm referring to is makepkg -

I don't think there is a way to get the password from the
ask-become-pass.
It could be considered a potential security issue if that where
possible.
When you have script asking for information that you can't provide with
command line arguments you can use the expect module.
And the password need to be provided somehow, some of the options are
hard code it, use vars_prompt, put it in a variable, use one of the
supported password managers
