《Wonderland: Origin Arc [Script]》2.2 - Sissel's Decision
Advertisement
[Sissel is heading into college early in the morning, wearing a black body warmer over a white shirt, with jeans and brown shoes. Tracey is following behind him, phasing through people rather than moving past them. Sissel eventually makes it through the doorway, Tracey taking notice of the smashed window nearby.]
Tracey: [surprised] Hey, did you do that?
[Sissel looks over to the window.]
Sissel: I don’t remember who actually did that.
Tracey: [surprised] It’s impressive.
[Sissel and Tracey enter the college, Sissel looking around it for the Mad Tea Party. Sissel gets some weird looks from people as he talks to Tracey.]
Tracey: Hey, you… you sure about this?
Sissel: Yeah, I… I think it’s for the best, y’know?
Tracey: Yeah, I know.
[Sissel gives a thumbs up and takes a breath, going towards the main space of the college. The chairs and tables are spread out notably with Leigh, Chelsea, Liv and Gary at one table, looking at Leigh’s phone. Leigh is wearing a red shirt and jeans along with glasses. Gary is in a white shirt and blue coat. Chelsea has her hair in a ponytail and is wearing a long sleeved striped blue shirt and white skirt. Liv is wearing an orange hoodie with a white cat logo on it. Sissel comes over to the group, pulling out a chair and sitting down while Tracey leans on his shoulders, looking at them. All but Gary look up at Sissel.]
Leigh: [quickly, distracted] Hey mate.
Chelsea: [quickly, distracted] Hiya.
Liv: [quickly, distracted] Hey.
[They all immediately look back to the picture, Gary nonchalantly waving at Sissel. Tracey sighs.]
Tracey: [disappointed] Are they always like this now?
[Sissel nods, putting his hand on the table.]
Sissel: Um… I’d like to make an announcement. Involving the Mad Tea Party.

Leigh: [distracted] What is it mate?
[Tracey groans, walking around from Sissel.]
Tracey: [annoyed] What the hell are they even looking at?
Sissel: [nervous] Um… I’m gonna leave it for a bit.
[They all immediately turn their attention onto Sissel, except for Tracey who is now looking over the phone.]
Leigh: [surprised] Um… w-why is that?
Sissel: [nervous] I just… y’know between seeing Tracey die and… you all getting superpowers, it just felt like I need to step back and relax a bit.
Gary: Got ya mate.
[Gary goes back to the phone, Tracey groaning.]
Liv: [surprised] If you want to, you can stay. We’re all he-
[Sissel raises his hand flat from the table, facing Liv.]
Sissel: [nervous] I don’t w… I don’t need any help. I’ll be fine.
[The three look at each other, Leigh and Chelsea nodding.]
Chelsea: As long as you know what you’re doing, I’m sure that you’ll be fine.
[Sissel nods to her.]
Leigh: Yeah, mate, do whatever you need. We’re here when you need us.
Gary: [distracted] Mhm.
[Tracey tries to slap Gary but it goes straight through his head.]
Tracey: [annoyed] Crap.
Sissel: [distracted] Um… hey, if you ever need me to help with the whole “White Rabbit” situation-
Leigh: We’ll give you a call.
[Sissel smiles, getting up from the seat.]
Sissel: [relieved] If I’m being honest, I expected that to go really badly.
Gary: [distracted] Totally.
[Leigh slaps Gary in the head.]
Gary: [surprised] Ow!
Tracey: [annoyed] Thank you!
Liv: If you’re… certain about this… then it’ll be fine.
[Sissel starts to back away slightly, smiling.]
Sissel: I’m gonna run to lesson. Thank you. Seriously.
[Sissel starts to jog off down the corridor, the group staying in place with Tracey now gone from the scene. Leigh and Chelsea lean back, Liv watching Sissel run off while Gary remains focused on the phone.]

Leigh: Well… that saved time.
Chelsea: At least he’s doing good.
Leigh: [relieved] Yeah! Yeah…
Liv: I don’t know… maybe I should keep an eye still.
Leigh: Liv, just… give him his space if he wants it.
Chelsea: Yeah, it’ll be fine Liv.
[Liv sighs, leaning back in her chair.]
Gary: [proud] Right!
[Gary sets the phone up to be standing, pointing at it for the group.]
Gary: That’s the, um…
Leigh: Screensaver?
Gary: Screensaver group! Thank you Leigh.
[Leigh gives a faux-smile, immediately fading.]
Gary: Tell me how many people are in it.
[Chelsea looks a little closer.]
Chelsea: Um… seven.
Gary: Wrong.
Leigh: [confused] What?
Gary: There are eight.
[They all look at him, confused. Gary groans, looking up.]
Gary: The picture has seven people in it, right?
Leigh: [confused] Obviously!
Gary: Well then… who took the picture?
[They all remain quiet, thinking.]
Liv: [thinking] Maybe one of them had a power that held the camera, then took the picture.
[Gary stares down Liv.]
Gary: You think one of them used a superpower in public and that never got any traction?
Liv: Basically.
Leigh: [agreeing] Definitely.
Chelsea: [agreeing] Makes sense.
[Gary sighs, pushing himself of the chair and handing Leigh his phone. Leigh takes it, Gary pointing wildly at all of them.]
Gary: All of you? Boring.
[Gary walks away, stretching his arms in the air.]
Gary: [shouting] Boring!

{COMPLETED} Alaina wishes to be more than a mere icon for her kingdom, believing a princess should be much more than a fragile lady in a dress. The king wants no more than for her to marry in order to succeed the throne, but she has other things in mind -- such as her thirst for freedom and adventure. But when one of the neighbouring kingdoms demands that it's time for a change in the land of Asteria, her entire kingdom is shaken. To worsen the situation, the king is somehow caving in to the demands irrationally. Stubbornly refusing to resign herself to the kingdom's seemingly inevitable fate, she is forced to leave her home in search for the root of the problems. Along with people of diverse backgrounds she comes to trust and a hotheaded boy with pyrokinesis named Kai, Alaina joins an uprising rebellion against the forming empire. But the rebellion is only the beginning of the end, for the end result isn't as perfect as how they have proudly perceived and imagined it to be - some sacrifices are destined to be made. *****{ Book 1 of The Recalcitrance Trilogy }* IMPORTANT! *No copyright infringement intended on the art of the cover.Art Credits: Alexandra V.
