《Wonderland: Origin Arc [Script]》2.12 - Thamesmead
Advertisement
[Sissel runs out the front doors of College, quickly looking around and mumbling to himself. He’s passing through a car park on his way out, only with a couple of cars there. He focuses on the floor.]
Sissel: [mumbling] I’m in idiot, I should… grade-a… idiot! And Witley Barbit, the hell is-
[Sissel starts walking past Goldberg, looking around the area confused. He takes notice of Sissel.]
Goldberg: Hey, you’re already done?
Sissel: [annoyed] I gave Chelsea the laptop, accidentally with the notebook and our teacher wants to kill us.
[Goldberg nods, putting his hands in his pockets.]
Goldberg: Okay, that’s not good.
Sissel: [annoyed] No, no it is not. Also Tracey says that he’s talking to a Witley Barbit who probably wants us dead…
[Goldberg perks up, thinking.]
Sissel: [annoyed] And Liv is annoyed with me, which is completely fair but I don’t know what to-
Goldberg: Witley is the Rabbit.
Sissel: [annoyed] Pardon?
Goldberg: Barbit is just an anagram of Rabbit. Witley Barbit is a false name that the White Rabbit is using. Whoever this teacher is, they’re a pawn to the Rabbit. Honestly, it’s kinda obvious.
[Sissel groans, moving over to a wall at the side and headbutting it.]
Goldberg: Oh, come on! Don’t do that!
Sissel: [annoyed] It helps when I’m stressed.
[Sissel comes back over.]
Goldberg: How the hell does that help you when you’re stressed?
Sissel: It distracts me from stu- aaaaah!
[Sissel grips his forehead, bending over at the waist.]
Sissel: Christ, that hurts.
Goldberg: It would! You headbutt a wall!
Sissel: [strained] Um… what about you? Find anything?
Goldberg: [sarcastic] Oh, about what happens when we die? Yeah, I managed to find all the answers in about five minutes flat, good day for me!
Sissel: [annoyed] You don’t have to be a prick about it!

Goldberg: I’m sorry but you can’t expect me to find the answer you’re looking for in less than a day!
Sissel: Well… it’d help if you keep looking.
Goldberg: [worried] If you’re being chased by a man set to kill you, surely it’d make more sense to focus on that.
Sissel: I will… just Tracey matters more.
Goldberg: You mean the girl that you’re trying to get rid of?
Sissel: [annoyed] Can you just…
[Sissel groans, holding his head.]
Goldberg: Cecil… I’m sorry… but whether you like it or not-
[Tracey dropped through the ceiling suddenly between Sissel and Goldberg, landing with a bend then a quick bow.]
Tracey: Okay, that was actually better than I expected.
Goldberg: Nice landing.
Tracey: Thank you!
[Sissel gets up, stretching a bit. Tracey looks at him, worried.]
Tracey: [worried] Did you headbutt a wall again?
[Goldberg gies a judging stare at Sissel.]
Sissel: Yeah… little bit.
Tracey: [annoyed] Sissel!
Sissel: It helps!
Goldberg: [concerned] I would disagree with that.
Tracey: Well… look, can you explain to me why someone is trying to kill you?
Sissel: [worried] Um… it’s- well- it’s a bit of a long story.
Tracey: [annoyed] I’m dead. I have time.
[Sissel sighs. He looks at Goldberg then back at Tracey, frowning.]
Sissel: Fine. We were in a lightning storm that gave us superpowers.
Tracey: I know that bit.
Sissel: We were there because the Tea Party, your little squad, saved me from having a gun pointed at my head. Two crazy people tried to shoot me, Leigh saved my life. We ran away and got struck by lightning. Now another crazy person wearing a rabbit mask is trying to kill us because apparently we got the Flash origin story. Any other questions?
[Tracey thinks for a moment, surprised.]

Tracey: Have you told anyone?
Sissel: [hesitant] No.
Tracey: Why not?
Sissel: Does it matter?
Tracey: Yes!
[Sissel hesitates speaking, chuckling awkwardly.]
Sissel: Well… who would believe it?
Goldberg: Other people like us.
Sissel: [annoyed] Really? Because I basically acted fucking crazy when she died, they’ll just think it’s… it’s psychosis. Or mental illness. Something would be wrong with me.
[Goldberg groans and moves over to Sissel and Tracey.]
Tracey: They aren’t like that, they’ll believe you.
Sissel: [hesitant] I don’t think they will.
Goldberg: Mind if I try something?
[Sissel and Tracey look at him confused.]
Sissel: [confused] What?
Goldberg: Well, just… I wanna see if my power still works.
Sissel: I doubt it.
Tracey: Worth a shot.
Sissel: I really disagree with that.
[Goldberg groans and places his hands on their shoulders.]
Sissel: I mean what do we expec-
[Sissel’s eyes suddenly go blue and he collapses to the ground in pain, groaning. He starts shaking on the ground, the world starting becoming dark in his eyes. After a few seconds, the scene clears up in a different area. Instead of a carpark, he’s now stood on the roof of a block of flats. He’s on the edge, overlooking a city. He starts taking deep breaths as his eyes return to normal, frantically looking around. To his left is Tracey and his right is Goldberg.]
Sissel: [panicking] What the hell did you do?! Where are we?!
Goldberg: London… Thamesmead, I think- holy crap, that works!
[Tracey turns around, stepping off the ledge. Sissel turns to Goldberg annoyed, stepping up to him.]
Sissel: [annoyed] You didn’t know that would work?!
Goldberg: [excited] No, but it’s a good thing that it did! I mean this is amazing, admittedly.
Tracey: Guys…
Goldberg: [excited] Ghosts can still use their powers, that’s a breakthrough.
Sissel: [annoyed] Could you maybe have given me some information about what the hell you were planning to do?!
Tracey: [annoyed] Guys…
Goldberg: Well there wouldn’t have been a point if it hadn’t worked!
Sissel: [annoyed] Oh my god, you really are a-
[Tracey turns to them.]
Tracey: [annoyed, loud] Hey! Dick and Dyke, look at this!
[Sissel and Goldberg look towards Tracey’s direction. Sissel is immediately shocked and stumbles backwards. He screams, but is caught by Goldberg who flings him onto the roof.]
Sissel: [terrified] What the hell did you do?!
Goldberg: Thamesmead… London… 2009…
[Goldberg chuckles and jumps down, walking next to Tracey. On the rooftop, in front of the group, there stands Benny on the ground having what appears to be a seizure with Benny, Goldberg and Cheshire stood over him. In the back is Marshall and Alice, wearing their white and brown masks, along with the Hatter next to them.]
Goldberg: This was the day that the team fell apart.

Vast Asleep
The story of Kingard the Binder in the aftermath of Broken This short story is the epilogue of Broken, the second book of the Chronicles of Mother's Gate series. It’s a great follow-up to the novel, a bonus story that adds extra layers but is set apart from the full-length narrative. Vast Asleep follows the story of Kingard, who finds himself caught in a world called Mother's realm, bathed in glowing light but strangely stuck in place. He encounters his greatson Varyan there, and learns that his experiences are likely dreams. As he grows more accustomed to the loving realm around him, Kingard remembers fear and trepidation about the face of the world, and he loses contact with his companion. This story answers the question, Is Kingard really dead? with a tentative no, and new mysteries brewing. It also raises the question, What's happening while he's awake? and includes an excerpt from the sister story Ride Awake, about Kingard's situation with the Colkh'rak. Praise for Tales of the Known World Bookends: Loved it. The difference between the two stories is great! The difference between the epilogue and prologue is astounding. So much light and love in the first story. You feel safe reading it. Healing. The second, so much darkness, pain and despair. The choice of vocabulary is awesome and makes an impact. And this set of short stories ties the two books together so well. -- Dana V. of Texas ★★★★★
