Episode 2

Gabriella: *Groans/wakes up.*

Franco: Did you eat anything at all today?

Gabriella: *Shakes her head.* No.

High Lord Caspian: As I suspected.

Gabriella: As you suspected, Caspian?

High Lord Caspian: Franco said that you kept on fainting on him.

Gabriella: I did.

Franco: Are you able to walk?

High Lord Caspian: Let's see.

Gabriella: Okay.

Franco: *Puts her feet to the ground.*

Gabriella: *Tries to walk/fails.*

Franco: *Catches her.*

Gabriella Thank you.

Franco: *Picks her up.*

Gabriella: *Faints once more.*

High Lord Caspian: *Enters the dining room.*

Lucas: Is she okay?

Franco: *Comes in.* Does it look like it?

Lucas: No.

Franco: *Lays her down.* She hasn't eaten.

Lucas: The whole day?

Gabriella: *Tries to wake up.*

Franco: We have to get something into her system.

Gabriella: *Wakes up/turns onto her side.*

Franco: *Touches her face.* Are you alright?

Gabriella: *Nods.* No. I need to eat. And it's killing me.

Franco: *Sits her up.* Do you like chicken?

Gabriella: Yes.

Franco: Okay.

Lucas: Let's give the some room.

High Lord Caspian: Way a head of you.

Lucas: You are?

High Lord Caspian: Yes. Now let's go.

Lucas: *Leaves with him.*

Gabriella: *Watches them leave.*

Franco: What was it like in your world, Gabby?

Gabriella: It was fine.

Franco: Did you know your father?

Gabriella: No, I barely knew him, Franco.

Franco: And your mother?

Gabriella: I know. I mean, I don't.

Franco: And you and Shane?

Gabriella: What about him?

Franco: Did you two ever plan on a future together?

Gabriella: No, we didn't.

Franco: He didn't care, did he?

Gabriella: He did. But then, he began acting strange.

Franco: How?

Gabriella: I don't know.

Franco: Did he ever kiss you?

Gabriella: *Gets off the table/runs/goes to her room/shuts the door/walks over to a near by window/looks out.*

High Lord Caspian: What is it, Franco?

Franco: *Catches up to him.* Gabriella's upset.

Lucas: With you.

High Lord Caspian: Of Course she's upset with Franco.

Lucas: And why is she upset with you, Franco?

Franco: Because I asked her a certain question, and next thing I knew, is that she runs away.

Lucas: She's probably in her room.

High Lord Caspian: *Sighs.* She might be.

Lucas: Does she know about the blight spreading across this yet?

High Lord Caspian: *Nods.* She doesn't know.

Franco: I'll tell her.

Lucas: I'll do it. You've upset her enough.

High Lord Caspian: He's right, Franco. You have.

Lucas: I'll talk with her now.

Franco: Should I come with you in case she faints again?

Lucas: No.

Franco: Please, I promise that I won't upset her again.

High Lord Caspian: He said no, Franco.

Lucas: I think he gets it.

High Lord Caspian: I'll come with you, Lucas.

Lucas: Okay.

Franco: *Walks back.*

Gabriella: *Walks away from the window.*

Franco: *Knocks on her door.* Can I come in?

Gabriella: *Opens the door.* You can.

Franco: I'm sorry.

Gabriella: I forgive you.

Franco: Are you still made at me?

Gabriella: I was, but then, I realized that I miss Shane more than the fight that we were having. That's why I wanted to go back to my mortal life across the border, where I belong.

Franco: You do realize that you can't go back with vampires chasing after your tail, right?

Gabriella: I know, but I thought you didn't want me here?

Franco: At first I didn't, but now, I do.

Gabriella: And coming back to that question you asked me earlier...

Franco: *Shushes her.* You don't have to remind me.

Gabriella: Why?

Franco: Because I made you angry at me.

Gabriella: And I forgave you for it.

Franco: Do you want to go?

Gabriella: To come to think about it, I don't think I will ever go back to the mortal realm, since there's nothing else there for me now.

Franco: Your right, there's not. And I don't want anything more to happen to you.

Gabriella: Hold up, are you worried about me?

Franco: *Silent.*

Gabriella: You are?

Franco: Yes, I am.

Gabriella: *Faints.*

Franco: *Catches her.*

Gabriella: *Wakes up.* This seems to be happening a lot.

Franco: It seems so. Especially, after you've eaten you're food.

Gabriella: You seem to have the power to make me faint into your arms, Franco.

Franco: And that I do.

Gabriella: That's your powers? To make people faint when you are near them?

Franco: Only when I'm near you.

Gabriella: Why didn't you use it on me, instead of knocking me out?

Franco: Because I didn't want to freak you out, Gab.

Gabriella: I'm not freaking out now!

Franco: Do you trust me?

Gabriella: I'm not sure.

Lucas: *Knocks on her bedroom door.*

Gabriella: *Whispers.* You have to hide.

Franco: I guess I have to.

Gabriella: Now hide.

Franco: *Hides under her bed.* Tell me when it's safe to come out, Gabs.

Gabriella: I will.

Lucas: *Knocks once more.*

Gabriella: *Opens the door/spots High Lord Caspian.*

Lucas: We have to tell you something.

Gabriella: What is it?

High Lord Caspian: There's a blight spreading across Prythian.

Gabriella: But won't it spread to the mortal lands?

High Lord Caspian: It will. If we don't stop her.

Lucas: Yes. Our Queen is a 'her'.

Gabriella: Why didn't you tell this before, Lucas? And who are you both on about exactly?

Franco: *Calls out from under her bed.* Amarantha's cousin.

Lucas: Who said that?

Franco: *Comes out from under the bed.* I'm your friend, Lucas.

Lucas: *Notices him.* I didn't see you under there.

Gabriella: Are you going to explain to me?

High Lord Caspian: We will after you or he tells us why he was in your room.

Gabriella: He came by to apologise for upsetting me earlier on.

Lucas: So, I'm guessing that your giving him a second chance?

Gabriella: I have to give him another chance.

High Lord Caspian: Why waste your second chance on him?

Gabriella: Guys, he's standing right beside me. Now your both 'upsetting' me now.

Lucas: I'm sorry.

Gabriella: I'm going for a walk.

Franco: Do you want me to come with you?

Gabriella: No. I'll be fine.

High Lord Caspian: *Grabs her by the arm.*

Gabriella: *Tries to shake his hand off.* Let me go.

Franco: Caspian, she said let her go.

High Lord Caspian: *Throws her to the floor.* Fine.

Lucas: *Leaves.*

High Lord Caspian: *Follows.*

Gabriella: *Cries.*

Franco: *Helps her up.*

Gabriella: *Crying.* I have to go back to the mortal lands.

Franco: Why?

Gabriella: Because my mother was wrong to send me to a place where I so clearly don't belong. And I thought vampires were worse, but you lot are, so I'm going.

Franco: So, your going?

Gabriella: Yes. I'll get by just fine on my own.

Franco: Fine!

Gabriella: *Leaves.*

Lucas: *Calls.* GABRIELLA!

High Lord Caspian: *Calls.* GABRIELLA!

Lucas: *Runs at Faerie speed.*

Franco: *Shouts.* Let her go. But she won't make it pass.

High Lord Caspian: Why?

Franco: Because I can put her to sleep.

Lucas: Your going to make her faint?

High Lord Caspian: Should we check her to see if she has?

Franco: I'll go, since I'm the one that made her unconscious before.

Lucas: Okay.

Gabriella: *Reaches the border/becomes dizzy/falls over/cuts herself/goes unconscious.*

Franco: *Runs to her aid/picks her up/runs back towards the manor/takes her to the infirmary.*

Lucas: *Joins him.*

Franco: *Sits Gabriella down on the chair.*

High Lord Caspian: *Makes everything on the infirmary table disappear.*

Franco: *Puts his hands under her arms/calls.* Caspian, could you help me please?

High Lord Caspian: *Lifts Gabriella up by the legs.*

Franco: *Lays her down.*

High Lord Caspian: What happened?

Franco: She said that we were worse than vampires, I will never forgive he for that.

Lucas: Neither will I.

High Lord Caspian: Cut the girl some slack.

Gabriella: *Wakes up.*

Franco: Have you got anything more horrible to say to me? And my friend too?

Gabriella: *Nods/dizzy.* No.

Franco: And why?

Gabriella: Because I don't.

Franco: Are you okay?

Gabriella: I didn't say I was. I'm dizzy.

Franco: Now you see why I am worried about you, Gabriella.

Gabriella: You weren't worried about me yesterday.

Franco: And it's my job to worry about you.

Gabriella: Remind; I'm not the one...

Franco: *Shushes her.*

Gabriella: Don't you shush me.

Franco: Would you rather me make you dizzy or make you faint again?

Gabriella: Why would you be willing to do that?

Franco: Because it's the only way to keep you quiet.

Gabriella: Oh.

Franco: *Cleans her wound.*

Gabriella: What?

Franco: You fainted and hurt yourself.

Gabriella: *Spots blood on her right arm/lays back down.*

Franco: Now your quiet.

Gabriella: *Shocked.*

Franco: I'm not dangerous to you, and neither is the High Lord and his emissary.

Gabriella: So you want me to admit that I was wrong?

Franco: Yes, because I can prove to you that I'm not.

Gabriella: But you do make me faint.

Franco: *Cleans her up.* Of course I do.

Gabriella: Okay.

Franco: *Finishes cleaning her up.*

Gabriella: And I'm sorry for saying that you were like vampires, because your not. It's okay if you don't forgive me. I wouldn't forgive me either.

Franco: That's right. I wouldn't forgive you.

Gabriella: So you don't forgive me?

High Lord Caspian: Of course he doesn't.

Gabriella: But you do?

High Lord Caspian: Of course I do. It's them who don't.

Gabriella: Then I guess I'll be on my way.

Lucas: To where?

Gabriella: The garden.

High Lord Caspian: Your hurt, Gabs.

Gabriella: I know.

High Lord Caspian: So I don't think you'll be going anywhere for a while, until you've healed.

Gabriella: Okay.

Lucas: Do you want one of to go with her?

High Lord Caspian: No. I don't. She just wants some alone time.

Franco: But we need to tell her about the Queen of Under The Mountain.

High Lord Caspian: I know.

Gabriella: What about the Queen? Who is she?

Franco: Never mind.

Gabriella: Fine! Keep the secret to yourselves.

Lucas: Then we will.

Gabriella: *Leaves/makes it towards the door.*

Franco: *Runs/catches up with her.* Gabriella, wait up.

Gabriella: I just want to be alone.

Franco: I know. But you never know what could be lurking about out here.

Gabriella: I don't need protection.

Franco: *Grabs her/spins her around.* You don't need protection? But I think you do.

Gabriella: *Sighs.* I just wanted some fresh air from all of this.

Franco: *Sighs.* Including a break from me?

Gabriella: *Shakes her head.* Yes. As I said before, you and Lucas, except for Caspian, don't forgive me for what I said.

Franco: Gabby-

Gabriella: *Cuts him off.* Forget it.

Franco: *Lets her go/calls.* Gabriella,

Lucas: Let her go.

Franco: Why?

Lucas: Because Caspian will be talking to her shortly.

Franco: Okay.

Lucas: Do you love her?

Franco: No. She hates me.

Lucas: It's because of what you said about her the other day.

Franco: I'll speak to her again later.

Lucas: And what if she doesn't want to speak to you, Franco?

Franco: What is it?

Lucas: *Senses the Bogge.* I sense the Bogge.

Franco: Why?

Lucas: *Spots it approaching her.* Franco, get her.

Franco: I need to make her faint again.

Lucas: Do it.

Gabriella: *Faints.*

High Lord Caspian: *Catches her/carries her back to the manor.* I've got you, Gabs.

Franco: *Takes her from him.*

High Lord Caspian: *Checks her over.* She's fine.

Franco: She is?

High Lord Caspian: Yes, she is.

Franco: *Carries her upstairs to her bedroom.*

Gabriella: *Wakes up/groans.* Franco?

Franco: I made you faint.

Gabriella: Why?

Franco: You were nearly harmed in the garden.

Gabriella: I was what?

Franco: Almost harmed by the Bogge.

Gabriella: I was? I thought I felt a breeze, but couldn't see it, when I had fainted into the arms of someone.

Franco: *Cuts her off.* Caspian catched you.

Gabriella: What?

Franco: I made you faint, but Caspian caught you just in time. You could've died.

Gabriella: I know. Thanks for reminding me on when Shane Webster died in a car accident.

Franco: Sorry for your loss.

Gabriella: All is forgiven.

Franco: And I'm still trying or debating on whether I should forgive you or not.

Gabriella: You don't have to forgive me. I can take the pain, because it reminds me, that it's not so bad.

Franco: You can?

Gabriella: Yes.

Franco: *Sighs.* I've decided.

Gabriella: Decided on what?

Franco: I've forgiven you, Gabs.

Gabriella: I can take the pain... I'm forgiven?

Franco: *Nods.* Yes.

Gabriella: Yes?

Franco: Yes, you are.

Gabriella: So, why did you make me faint anyway?

Franco: Do you mean how did I get the power of making somebody faint?

Gabriella: Yes, that I do.

Franco: Well, us Faeries are born with certain gifts.

Gabriella: You are?

Franco: Yes, we are.

Gabriella: Oh. But why do it on somebody who isn't immortal, like me?

Franco: Because I wanted you to be the first person that I practice it on.
