Mystical Tides Part 3

Scene: Library
(Maddie is sitting in the library, reading Shakespere's Romeo and Juliet)
(In the dark shadows, a shadowy figure appears behind a bookcase, coming close to Maddison)
(Maddison can feel something crepping behind her. She turns around with a shocked look on her face)
(A wolf-creature dressed in clothes, is standing infront of her. Maddison drops into the floor, crawling back but the creature stands back in hesitation)
Wolf-like Creature: I didn't mean to frighten you.
(Maddison stumbles up, still shocked from fear)
Wolf-creature(extends his hand): I'm Lance
(Maddison hesitantly come close to his face and touches it slightly)
Maddison(softly): What are you?
(Lance gently takes her hand)
Lance: It's a curse
Maddison: A curse?
Lance: I feel in love with this girl who lived with this old hag. It was during the 17th century.
Maddison: you lived that long?
Lance: We have a short life expansion here in the magic relam.
So I thought I found my true love but it turned out she was in lust with me. She had over 45 men in her lust. The worst part was.....She got pregnant. She pointed the finger at me and that when the old hag cast the hex on me. Citing that no one will ever come close to my handsome face in the night.
(Maddison looks at him with understanding)
Maddison: In the night? So you're completely normal in the daytime?
Lance: Or at least in some points in the daytime
Maddison: Did you find any cure for this curse?
Lance(chuckles): Once I arrived here I asked Queen Sarosia for my help. But she said the only way to cure the curse is to find that one true love.
(Maddison and Lance look at each other in awkward silence and they begin to laugh softly)
Maddison: I stopped believing in fairy tales a long time ago.
(Maddison walks over to the bookcases and searches through the books)
Maddison(searching): I'm sure there's a book on curing hexes.......
(Maddison stops for a minute)
Maddison: You know what....
(Maddison goes over to face Lance)
Maddison: I suddenly don't feel nervous around you anymore.
(Lance smiles)
Lance: I'm glad you don't.
(Lance turns around towards his desk)
Maddison: Lance...
Lance: Yes....
Maddison: What happened to your former lover since then?
Lance: She had a miscarrage and lived the rest of her life as an old crone. Looking more and more of the old hag she used to live with. I pity her.
Maddison: I guess she had her true form.
Lance: Yeah....
(Lance lowers his head in thought)
(Maverick walks in, standing at the entrance)
Maverick: Hello Maddison
Maddison: Oh hi
Maverick: I see that you met Lance

Kristen: I understand now. Things must have been so complicated.
Aunt Martha: Come sit down with us, sweetheart......We try so hard to protect you from the evils of this world. But sometimes you have to face them on your own.

(Alex stroms over to Kristen and Maddie while Kelly stood there, stunned)

Kristen: Sure
(The girls went inside the school just as the bell rings)
Scene: Libarary
(Kristen, Maddie, and Alex are sitting at the table, discussing)
Kristen: Ok.....Let me put this all together now. So our parents must be descendents to the white soilders, which makes us some type of mythical conquest.
Alex: How can that be? We barely know how to use our powers
Maddie: There might be some unknown history about greek goddesses of the roman century. We might be connected to them somehow.
Alex: How is that possible?
Maddie: What we just experienced before all this........Things don't happen like that out of the ordinary. The way we just contribute our energy is a gift.
Kristen: I knew there was something.......odd about me. But not until just now. When I was about 10 or 11, I always thought someone was watching me....Like someone was protecting me from anything that's bad. Then one night I saw my mom in the mirror, all dressed in white. I just stared at her.....She beckoned(Kristen beckons and presses her hand on her heart) and once I came close to the mirror...She....She faded away.

(Kirsten and Alex catches her attention)
(Maddie lifts her head up, wiping away her tears)
Maddie: It was a cold november night....I was waiting for Matthew, the boy I had a crush on. This was when I was at my old school. I really didn't make any friends there.....but I thought that night was really special. Just walking with Matthew was sweet....(seriousiness in her voice) But then something happened.
Cut To:
(Flashblack: Matthew, a tall, athletic boy, is walking with Maddie, smiling. Then all of a sudden, he grabs both of her shoulders tightly. Two teenagers(one boy, one girl) come up behind her, wrapping a bag over her head. This is all in slow motion)
Maddie(voice over): All I can see was darkness from that point on.......
(The two teens tie up Maddie, hanging her hands up to a tree. They remove the bag over her head, laughing evily at her)
Teen girl(whispers in Maddie's ear): Maybe we should just leave you here
(Matthew and the two teens, walk out into the woods, leaving Maddie there, shaken and alone. Her glasses slip into the ground. All Maddie could see was a blurry vision)
Maddie(voice over): I thought I was gonna die a cold, cruel death. But then something happened......
(A flash of light glow over Maddie's cold stricken face)
Cut To:
Present Day-Libarary
(Close up on Maddie's eyes)
Maddie: Suddenly......I wasn't cold anymore. It was like a ray of hope shined down on me. Help was only a mile away, so I was safe. By the following week I had to change schools.
Kristen: I had a near death experience once. When my cuts got too deep(Kristen reveals two small visible scars on her wrist under her wrist band) all I could see was that blurry vision. Just one flash of light, everything was clear now. And my wounds heal quicker.

Maverick: There is someone special I would like to meet
Alex: You mean someone lived down there? All this time?
Maverick: Only temporary. There's not much to explain. Promise you'll be there around night.
(Kristen was about to say something but Maverick turned away towards the bookcases)
