EXT.AKHBAR, DAY - NAGHAR PLANET

The noises of the Rtyasis start to get louder, Lisa puts her hand on the ears and begins to shake. Matheo gets closer and hugs her.

Matheo

(Calm)

That will not happen again.

Lisa

(Calm)

Are you sure?

He smiles at her.

Matheo

(Serious)

Yes, remember healing takes time.

Alex is uncomfortable so he closes his hand because Matheo is still hugging Lisa. He keeps interrogating Mia together with Eva.

Alex

(Calm)

Mia, I know that you've been travelling through time.

Mia doesnt let Alex finish his sentence.

Mia

(Serious)

I use the artefact.

Matheo runs in her direction and grabs her by the collar in a gentle way but his eyes are mysterious and angry at same time.

Matheo

(Serious)

How many times have you used it?

She touches her wound and looks at the sky because she doesn't want to face his eyes.

Mia

(Serious)

Three times.

Alex can feel the spark between and doest like because he recalls how Matheo suffers with her passive-aggressive behaviour and gaslighting. Eva rarely talks, she keeps her feelings for herself but Lisa can see that seeing Matheo and Mia together is hurting her.

Eva

(Serious)

We need to reach the mountains before night.

Eva glances at Matheo. He always loves her but in his heart he feels unworthy of her love and is afraid of messing badly with her and the toxic soul tie with Mia is messing up with his head.

Matheo touches the floor,closes his eyes and feels an excruciating pain. A voice talks in the head of Matheo.

Nature

(Calm)

Matheo Bellarde,many people have already died here. They came for the wrong reasons but even though you seem so much darkness somehow your heart is still pure.

Matheo

(Serious)

I am happy the nature of this place is still alive.

Nature

(Calm)

The creatures are coming, I unlock something in you. Like mother, you will be able to access and control nature in a way beyond your predecessores. That is why you are feeling the pain, support a little longer.

Matheo

(Sad)

Talk to me more about my mother.

The voice stops, he gets visibly sad. Lisa,Alex and Eva don't say anything because they know silence is a better option. Alex understands that is treating Mia very badly and notices that time is ticking to save her.
