《Wonderland: Origin Arc [Script]》2.14 - Recovery
Advertisement
[Sissel is being helped to walk by Leigh and Chelsea, looking nearly unconscious. The three enter the college, moving over to the stairs. They sit Sissel down, who groans.]
Chelsea: [reassuringly] There ya go, buddy… there you are.
[Sissel sits down, resting on the side of the railing. Chelsea and Leigh look at Sissel, sighing.]
Leigh: [concerned] You wanna… tell us what the hell that was about?
Sissel: [tired] It’s nothing… just, like…
Chelsea: [concerned] What?
Sissel: [tired] I don’t know. Just a panic attack or something?
Leigh: [concerned] Seriously? Trust me, it is not a panic attack. Chelsea has had panic attacks before, whatever was happening out there is not a panic attack!
Sissel: [annoyed] Well I don’t know, okay? I just don’t know!
[Sissel hits his head on the railing.]
Sissel: [upset] Ow. Sorry… Sorry.
Chelsea: [worried] I’m gonna… head to the group. You wanna come with us?
[Sissel stays quiet for a few seconds, then nods.]
Chelsea: [worried] Okay… Um, Leigh?
Leigh: [worried] Hmm?
Chelsea: [worried] Come on.
[Leigh seems prepared to stop her but she glares at him, making him move. Sissel looks at the two and chuckles. Leigh notices.]
Leigh: What is it?
Sissel: [chuckling] Just… you two are already like old and married.
Chelsea: [with Leigh] What? No, we’re not in-
Leigh: [with Chelsea] That’s not what’s going-
Sissel: [interrupting] Tracey told me!
[The two look surprised, Sissel chuckling.]
Sissel: To be fair, you two aren’t very subtle about your relationship. You should work on that.
[Sissel rests his head on the railing and closes his eyes as the two walk down the corridor. Goldberg reappears next to Sissel, sat on the stairs and looking towards Leigh and Chelsea.]
Goldberg: [surprised] I wouldn’t have guessed that, to be fair.

Sissel: [tired] Is Tracey here?
Goldberg: I told her to go watch your friends.
Sissel: [tired] Good.
[Sissel sits up, looking at Goldberg.]
Sissel: [tired] What the hell was that?
Goldberg: Just testing my powers. Seems I can still use them which is gonna be pretty useful, I imagine.
Sissel: [tired] You said you could see the future.
Goldberg: I know, I didn’t know I could do this stuff.
[Goldberg chuckles, then looks at Sissel.]
Goldberg: About 20 years with my power. I’m dead and I’m still figuring this out.
[Sissel frowns at Goldberg.]
Goldberg: Oh yeah… you still have a lot of questions, don’t you?
Sissel: [tired] I’m just… we’ll sort it later, my heads fucking going a hundred miles right now.
Goldberg: Yeah, mine would get like that. The fit is new.
Sissel: [tired] Really, what did you get?
Goldberg: Nosebleed.
[Sissel chuckles, looking at the floor and grabbing his head.]
Sissel: [groaning] God, that hurts.
Goldberg: Yeah, it does. You’ll get used it it.
Sissel: [groaning] I really hope not.
[Goldberg chuckles.]
Sissel: [tired] Okay… one last question. Because my heads thinking now, which is rare so don’t rely on it.
Goldberg: Noted.
Sissel: [tired] I think… you know the stories where ghosts can’t move on because they have unfinished business?
Goldberg: So basically do I know ghost movies, yes, I’m quite the fan.
Sissel: [tired] It’s always unfinished business, right? They can’t go because of unfinished business.
Goldberg: Right… so what do you think hers is?
Sissel: [tired] I… I don’t know.
[Goldberg sighs, getting up.]
Goldberg: Well… I’ll see what I can do. Just stay with her for a bit.
Sissel: [tired] You sure?
Goldberg: Yeah, I don’t really trust you alone without a carer. Everything considered.
[Sissel smirks, closing his eyes again as he leans against the railing.]
Sissel: [tired] You ain’t too bad for her being the guy that killed her.
Goldberg: Yeah, well… she deserves better. Am I right?
[Sissel nods.]
Sissel: [tired] Yeah. Yeah you are.
[Goldberg smiles, starting to fade.]
Goldberg: Stay out of trouble. Get me if you end up in it.
[Goldberg vanishes, leaving Sissel alone. After a few seconds, he pulls himself and starts heading in the direction that Leigh and Chelsea had gone.]

Heavenly Flame
Every prince born in the Tian Dynasty goes through a ritual to recover memories from their previous lives. With these memories, they receive amazing cultivation techniques and martial skills that make them stand above all other men and able to rule the world from the Heavenly Court. When Tian Yan wakes up from the ritual, he realizes something is wrong and he does not seem to possess any of the advantages he was expecting. Will he be able to compete in the backstabbing, scheming, and politicking that is required to succeed his father and inherit the Imperial throne? Or even survive? After all, they stand above all other men and that means the biggest threat to a prince is the other princes. Heavenly Flame is a Xianxia story with a heavy focus on drama, relationships, and romance. It will have a lot of recognizable things from the genre but I will also try to subvert elements that I do not like about it. Scheduled chapters will be released Tuesdays at 11:00 CET and Thursdays at 19:00 CET. I might still release additional chapters depending on my other workload but these will be marked as such.
