*************************
(Dylan approaches Devon and is about to engage him but Cecilia comes in between them)Cecilia: What's going on here? Why are there two Dylans
Dylan: I'm the real Dylan!
Cecilia: Oh my gosh, I thought it was you I kissed then...(looks at Devon) Who are you?
Dylan: He's my twin brother, Devon... Apparently he was impersonating me
Cecilia: (looks at Devon) Why would you do that?
Devon: To get revenge on him, He's a very wicked person, he knows I have nowhere to go, Instead of him to accommodate me as his brother, he's chasing me out
Dylan: Are you even listening to yourself? You've stayed with me for over three months and I never complained till now, You're a grown up and matured man who should be in his own house
Devon: Enough of these insults, I'm leaving already!
(Dylan attempts to attack Devon one more time but Cecilia separates them)
Cecilia: Dylan please...
Dylan: Pack your things and get out!!!
Devon: Quit whining, I'm leaving already, Besides it's not like you earned the money for this house legally
Cecilia: (To Dylan) What is he talking about?
Dylan: It's nothing, just don't pay any attention to him
Devon: Go on bro,you know what I'm talking about, why don't you tell her how you swindled people to buy this goddamn house!
Dylan: Devon shut the fuck up!!!
(Devon leaves them and goes into his room)
Cecilia: Dylan is what he's saying true?
Dylan: (sighs) Cecilia, I can explain...
Cecilia: So its true, You promised me you weren't going to do it any longer, You lied to me
Dylan: It's not like that
Cecilia: You've let me down big time, I guess I should just add this to the list of things currently making me sad and depressed.
(Devon returns to the living room with his bags)
Devon: Goodbye forever bro...
(Devon leaves and shuts the door forcefully behind him)
Dylan: Cecilia, I know I'm at fault here and I've fucked up badly but please just hear me out
Cecilia: I've heard you out and forgiven you so many times but I guess people never really change... Goodbye Dylan
(She leaves his house angrily)
Dylan: (hits his fists angrily on the wall) No, No, No!!!
(Cecilia returns to the castle and meets Queen Victoria waiting for her)
Queen Victoria: Where the hell have you been?
Cecilia: I left to see....
Queen Victoria: To see your boyfriend? Isn't it?
Cecilia: He isn't my boyfriend, Not anymore.
Queen Victoria: I wish your father was still alive, you wouldn't have dared to go out of this castle to go see some filthy peasant.
Cecilia: He's not a filthy peasant, Besides I have every right to go out to see who I wanna see.
Queen Victoria: It's like I'm being too lenient with you, no more outings for you, not anymore.
Cecilia: What? You can't restrict my movements!
Queen Victoria: Yes I can.
Cecilia: You're not even the king
Queen Victoria: Well currently, I'm the ruler of Azrael till my son's coronation so you'll have to do whatever I tell you.
Cecilia: Have it at the back of your mind, That'll never happen no matter what! Look, I'm already having a bad day, Don't worsen it.
Queen Victoria: You filthy brat...
(She grabs her hand firmly but Cecilia pushes her away from herself)
Cecilia: Don't even touch me, I'm fed up with your attitude already, You're not my father or mother so you have no right to tell me what to do or where to go!
Queen Victoria: It's like your mother didn't teach you any manners, I'll do that myself!
(She grabs a whip nearby and attempts to lash her but Cecilia grabs holds of it firmly and they struggle with it, Cecilia eventually bites her arm and she lets go of the whip while screaming, Blair rushes into the room)
Blair: (separates Cecilia from Queen Victoria) What's happening here?
Queen Victoria: (she holds her bleeding hands) Argh! This mad rabid dog just bit my arm
Cecilia: You're the mad and rabid dog!
Blair: Cecilia enough, Don't say that.
Queen Victoria: You stupid girl, Do you think I'm your age mate? I'm old enough to be your mother!
Cecilia: Don't even say that because I can never have a mother like you
(Queen Victoria rushes to Cecilia again and this time she faces off with Blair who attempts to defend Cecilia, Queen Victoria hits Cecilia forcefully while Blair struggles to push her away but when she refuses to let go, Blair joins in the fight, she and Cecilia overpower her and pin her to the floor and beat her up, slapping and tearing her royal gown while she screams for help, Two guards come running in)
Guard 1: (separates Blair and Cecilia from Queen Victoria) Stop! Both of you!
Cecilia: Leave me alone! I'll kill her!!!
Guard 2: (Helps Queen Victoria up from the floor) Sorry my queen
Queen Victoria: (to the guards) they attacked me! I command you to throw them in the dungeon
Guard 1: Royal protocols demand that that'll only happen when a non member of the royal family engages a member of the royal family
Queen Victoria: Ohhh so that's how it's going to be isn't it? (pushes the guard away and looks at Cecilia and Blair) This isn't over both of you!
(Queen Victoria takes her torn pieces of gown and leaves the room)
Guard 1: (gives both of them a high five) Now that's what I'm talking about, You two gave it to her just the way I wanted
Guard 2: Yeah, you deserve much more accolades.
Cecilia: I'm done tolerating her annoying and irritating attitude.
Blair: Don't stoop to her level Cecilia, Just don't let her bother you, But If she attacks you then you defend yourself with everything you've got!
(In Queen Victoria's room)
Queen Victoria: (raging angrily) I can't believe this, those girls are already growing wings... Blair can't stay alive much longer and when I'm finished with her, I'll go after that stupid bratty princess!
(She calls George)
George: Good evening my queen
Queen Victoria: (furiously) Shut up! Now listen to me carefully, Get your boys ready now, you are going to kill her today.
George: But we don't even have a good plan, what if this fails
Queen Victoria: It definitely won't! Get your boys ready for attack!
George: Yes my queen.
