The Prince Of Murrae

Esmeralda's Dream Wedding

ESMERALDA'S DREAM WEDDING

A WEEK LATER:

INT. THE PALACE – DAY

The date for the royal wedding has been fixed and Natash has been released on Esmeralda's request. She is banished from Murrae, never to return. She's given until after the wedding to leave.

WEDDING DAY:

INT. SALAHODIN'S HOUSE – DAY

Natash barges into Salahodin's house unannounced. He's filled with rage and attacks her. He grabs by her the neck threatening to strangle her.

SALAHODIN

Give me one good reason why I shouldn't kill you right now

NATASH

(Struggling to speak) Be... Because I... I know where Esmeralda is (He quickly leaves her)

SALAHODIN

This better not be a trick. I looked fro her everywhere in Murrae and found nothing!

NATASH

She's getting married today

SALAHODIN

That's not true! The only wedding holding today is the royal wed... (Realizes) She's getting married to the prince! We have to go.

He calls all his black scorpion members and there are many of them.

INT. THE THRONE ROOM – DAY

Everywhere is well decorated with various flowers and many are present. They are taking their vows with the creator as a witness.

PRINCE KAZIM

I will love you till the end of time. You will always have my support and I'll never leave your side

ESMERALDA

You brought me into a whole new world. You gave me life when I was dying. Without you I'm nothing, I'll always love forever.

PRIEST

I name you MAN and WIFE! You can kiss the bride if you want.

As they were about to kiss, they heard explosions and fighting outside.

ESMERALDA

What was that?

GUARD

(Runs to them)My prince the palace is under attack and there are many of them. I don't think we can defend it further. You have to run!

PRINCE KAZIM

No! I will stand and fight alongside my people. I can't run from this.

People were panicking and running for their lives. The guards in the throne room take their formation but the numbers of black scorpions are too many. The prince drew his sword to fight but a dart suddenly hit him on the neck and he falls to the ground. Black veins appear all over his body and he bleeds from his eyes and nose.

ESMERALDA

Kazim!

In her sparkling white gown, she holds the love of her life in her arms as she calls out for help.

ESMERALDA

(Crying) You'll be fine. Nothing will happen to you.

Suddenly at a distance, from the smokes and dusts, Salahodin emerges with a cunning smile on his face. It is just like Esmeralda dreamt. The prince would die, it all happened as she dreamt it. She stares at him frozen in fear and rage as Salahodin comes closer. She loses her breath with every step he takes.
