#1 An Unlikely Duo
The scene fade into the Crystal Expanse. A large, brown wooden ship comes out of a rift in the sky. The rift closes behind it as the ship falls through the air towards the ground. Gabrielle hanging on for dear life on the deck of the ship as it hits the ground sliding across the ice and slowing down just a few inches away from a wall. Gabrielle stands up to her feet, and looks around the area seeing the ice, and feeling the cold hit her skin.
Gabrielle: This does not look like Egypt.
Gabrielle puts on a jacket, and her sais in their sheaths, and the chakram on the back of her waist before leaving the ship. On her walk she sees the transparent crystalline walls surrounding her location. Over in the distance she sees a small figure approaching her. Gabrielle places her hand over her eyes to shield from the sun to get a better look at the figure before waving both hands.
Gabrielle: Hey! Over here!
The figure suddenly stops and Gabrielle hurries over to their position to see that it's just a little girl in black robes, a hand inside her robes.
Gabrielle: Easy, I'm not going to hurt you. My name is Gabrielle, I just... flown in. What's your name?
Zora: Says nothing
Gabrielle: Do you know where we are?
Zora: Only stares at Gabrielle
Gabrielle: Can you speak?
Zora: Keeps quiet
Gabrielle: Great. Can you point me in the direction you came from?
Zora: Points to Isafaro where skyscrapers are visible in the distance
Gabrielle: All right. Now we're getting somewhere. Heads in that direction Come on.
Zora: Stays put
Gabrielle: Turns around to see Zora isn't following Come on.
Zora: Remains in her spot
Gabrielle: I can't just leave you here.
Zora: Holds her ground
Gabrielle: We'll freeze to death.
Zora: Points in the direction of the tower
Gabrielle: Stares in awe at the tower What is that?
Zora: Motions for Gabrielle to follow as she leads
Gabrielle: I hope you know what you're doing.
Gabrielle catches up with Zora and the two walk side by side towards the tower.
Gabrielle: Where are those robes from?
Zora: Keeps walking
Gabrielle: Gets in front of Zora forcing her to stop and kneeling down to take a closer look at her robes seeing the serpent crest above her left breast You from a school?
Zora: Nods
Gabrielle: I'll do my best to see that you get back there.
Gabrielle stands up and the two continue to walk until they reach the entrance of the tower. To their dismay the entrance was cover by guards with muskets in their hands dress in medieval armor with a red tint. Gabrielle quickly put herself and Zora down into the snow to hide.
Gabrielle: Looks like we have company. I don't recognize their weapons. Do you think they're friendly?
Zora: Reaches inside her robes and pulls out her wand aiming it at the guards
Gabrielle: I'll take that as a no. Looks at the wand Is that a stick?
Zora: Glares at Gabrielle
Gabrielle: You're going to threaten them with a stick?
Zora: Glare intensifies
Gabrielle: Let's me take care of this. Grabs her chakram
Zora: Looks at it confuse and not impress
Gabrielle: Just watch.
Gabrielle stands up and aims the chakram, hurling it through the air as it spins around and around bouncing off a crystal ice wall and hitting the first guard in the head. It bounces back off the tower hitting the second and third guard knocking them out before returning to Gabrielle's hand. Zora looking on in shock.
Gabrielle: Just like old times.
Gabrielle and Zora walks over to the guards to find one of them still conscious, but laying on the ground. Gabrielle takes his weapon and kneels down to talk to him.
Gabrielle: Are there more of you.
Jherrazad Guard #1: Says nothing
Gabrielle: I'm dealing with a lot of mutes today. Are there more of you?
Jherrazad Guard #1: Continues to remain silent
Gabrielle: Grabs the guard and rapidly jabs two spots on the neck with her fingers I just cut off the blood flow to your brain. You'll die in about thirty seconds unless I take it off. Now, I'll ask again, are there more of you?
Jherrazad Guard #1: Y-yes!
Gabrielle: How many?
Jherrazad Guard #1: T-two hundred!
Gabrielle: You have two-hundred men, and they leave three of you at the gate? What's so important about the tower that they'd need that many men inside?
Jherrazad Guard #1: Who said there were only three of us?
Gabrielle and Zora look around to see more guards coming out of the snow with their muskets aim towards the two.
Jherrazad Guard #2: Let him go, or the girl dies.
Jherrazad Guard #1: Starts to bleed from the nose
Gabrielle: Jabs her fingers into his neck again allowing him to breathe
Jherrazad Guard #1: Gasps for air and falls to the ground
Zora: Descendo! A flash of light spark from the wand and the guard's gun go down to the ground firing into the snow
Gabrielle: Get down!
Gabrielle pushes Zora into the ground to avoid fire from the other soldiers.
Gabrielle: Inside, now!
The two retreat inside the tower slamming the doors shut and locking them before the guards could get in. Gabrielle looks at Zora displease.
Gabrielle: I thought you couldn't speak?
Zora: You thought wrong.
Gabrielle: Why didn't you say anything before?
Zora: We just met and I didn't trust you. I kept my mouth shut and let you assume whatever you wanted.
Gabrielle: Can I at least have a name?
Zora: Zora.
Gabrielle: That's a pretty name.
Zora: Walks away
Gabrielle: Approaches the wall and looks over the strange symbols glowing on it. She touches it carefully with her hand, trailing the symbols with her fingers What are these symbols?
Zora: I don't know. I'm not a Ravenclaw.
Gabrielle: A what?
Zora: Never mind. Turns back to Gabrielle The man I met back at Isafaro told me that this tower was responsible for bringing people from other worlds here. He also said that it was possible for the tower to bring them back.
Gabrielle: Isafaro?
Zora: The town you wanted to go to when you asked where I came from.
Gabrielle: That's why you didn't want to go there?
Zora: No, I didn't want to go there because it's bloody awful! I did you a favor bringing you here.
Gabrielle: And where is here, exactly?
Zora: The Downward Spiral. At least, that's what the locals call it. The source of everything that's wrong with this place.
Gabrielle: You said it was responsible for bringing people from different worlds here? It didn't bring me here. One minute I was being sucked through a whirlpool, and the next I'm falling out of the sky.
Zora: That's how they started to appear, anyway. I went to sleep in my dormitory and woke up in the middle of a street being attacked by soldiers. For one reason or another people are starting to appear in other ways.
Gabrielle: That must have been frightening for you.
Zora: Nothing I can't handle.
Gabrielle: I can see that. You know magic?
Zora: Yes.
Gabrielle: What was that spell you used on the guard outside?
Zora: None of your business, Muggle. I already shown you more than is allowed.
Gabrielle: Muggle?
Zora: A term we use to describe non-magical folk like yourself.
Gabrielle: That's a strange term.
Zora: You're a strange people. Turns around and walks away
Gabrielle: Follows Zora up the stairs in the next room You should stay by me. You heard the guard outside, there are less than two-hundred men in here.
The sound of the main entrance downstairs being hit by the soldiers outside reached their ears
Gabrielle: The rest trying to find a way back inside. We'll be trapped in here if we're not careful.
Zora: That won't matter once we find a way home.
Gabrielle: And if we don't?
Zora: We will.
The two reach the top of the steps and walk down a large room until they hear gunfire from afar. They hide behind the doorway to the next room and peer around the corner to see Isafaro troops firing at more Jherrazad guards. The inferior muskets forcing the Jherrazad troops to take behind cover longer than the Isafaro men who fires off more shots with their weapons.
Gabrielle: What are those things?
Zora: You tell me. It's a muggle weapon.
Gabrielle: Do you recognize any of these guys.
Zora: The one in black are from Isafaro. They were the guys I had to escape when they caught me out past their stupid curfew! I suggest we let them kill each other.
Gabrielle: Good idea. We shouldn't be getting in the middle of a conflict when it's not our world to begin with. We can sneak past them. Follow my lead.
The two begin moving behind the pillars to the far right of the next room, behind the Jherrazad soldiers. They move from pillar to pillar when nobody is looking in their direction until they are in the all clear. That is until they can hear more gunshots and explosions coming from all directions in the new room they are in.
Gabrielle: It never ends, does it?
Zora: It's a wonder you muggles have lasted for as long as you have; with how easily you turn on each other.
Gabrielle: You may have magic, but we're all still human here. Don't go acting like you're better just because you can cast a spell or two. We have bigger problems.
Zora: I agree.
Gabrielle: North, west, or east. No matter what direction we choose to go in we have more soldiers to contend with. What do you think?
Zora: North is going upward. That's the direction we need to head in in a tower. I suggest this time we attack the armored men.
Gabrielle: What?
Zora: If we attack the armored men, the Isafaro troops won't attack us.
Gabrielle: I thought you said Isafaro was awful.
Zora: This isn't a matter of personal opinion, Gabrielle. When caught between two opposing side you ally with the strongest of the two. Isafaro has better weapons than these armored grunts, and we already got on their bad side outside.
Gabrielle: We sneak past them for as long as we can. If there's no other way through then we'll go with your plan.
Gabrielle and Zora go north, coming to a stop at another doorway watching the soldiers of both armies go at it relentlessly offering no way for them to get by.
Gabrielle: Looks like we won't be sneaking past these guys.
Zora: Now are you ready to do things my way?
Gabrielle: All right. Takes out her chakram But you stay behind me. Understand?
Zora: Nods
Gabrielle gets ready to throw the chakram until heavy footsteps shake the room. A large black knight with a great sword enters into the battle zone opposite of where Gabrielle and Zora are, cutting through various Isafaro's soldiers and withstanding their bullets not slowing down an inch.
Isafaro Soldier #1: It's the Black Knight!
Isafaro Soldier #2: Fall back! Fall back!
The Isafaro troops retreat, running right by Gabrielle and Zora not even noticing the two.
Gabrielle: Looks at Zora Still want to side with Isafaro?
Jherrazad Guard #3: Praise Kasul. I don't know how much longer we could have held up. What is it?
Kaso: Looks towards the doorway Gabrielle and Zora are hiding behind Someone else is here.
The other Jherrazad troops reload and ready their weapons.
Kaso: Show yourself, cowards! I know you're there. Face me!
Gabrielle: We have to give ourselves up.
Zora: It's just one overgrown imbecile and a couple of soldiers. We can take them!
Gabrielle: No, Zora. We have to give ourselves up.
Kaso: I'll give you until the count of three. One. Two. Thr–!
Gabrielle: Enters through the doorway with her hands up All right! You caught us. We mean you no harm. We're only trying to find our way back home.
Kaso: Surrender your weapons.
Zora: Comes through the doorway wand at the ready Petrificus Totalus! The spell hits Kaso dead on, but dissolve and leaves no lasting effect to Zora's horror
Kaso: Cheap black magic! Kaso charges the two
Gabrielle: Zora, get back!
Zora stands frozen in fear as the Black Knight raises his sword over his head and brings it down in a powerful swing towards the two girls, the scene fading to black soon after.
