Scenario:Elize Lutus - What She Reached For

What She Reached For

Elize is in the kingdom of Windor when she is separated from Teepo and swallowed by a black rift. As she is being kidnapped by a pair of suspicious men, she begins to call out for her missing friend. When a voice rises to meet her call, it will lead to an encounter with (Captain)'s crew.

---

Somewhere in Windor—home to the capital city of Barona—a girl and her friend stand on the bank of a certain lake.

Teepo: Jude sure is late. Don't you think, Elly?

Elize: He sure is.

Elize and Teepo are traveling with Jude, searching for the cause of the Crystallization Anomaly as well as a way to reunite with their friend, Milla.

Elize and Teepo wait for Jude to come back from surveying their surroundings.

Teepo: Maybe we should have gone with him...

Elize: He said he'd be right back!

Teepo: Sure, but do you really think Jude will be okay without us?

Elize: He's strong and smart. I think he'll be all right.

Teepo: Yeah, you're right.

Elize: Let's keep waiting.

As the two engage in casual conversation, an unexpected fate closes in from behind.

Elize: Hmm?

Teepo: What's that black thing?

Sensing something disturbing, they turn to see a fissure tearing in the air, its great maw opening wide.

Elize: What is that!

Teepo: Get away from it, Elly! It's scary!

Elize: C'mon! We have to go find Jude!

Elize: Eeek!

Teepo: Nooo! We're gonna get sucked in!

Elize: Aaaah! Teepo!

The black rift begins to swallow its surroundings, drawing Teepo inside.

Elize: Teepoooo!

Teepo: Ellyyyyy!

Elize stretches her fingertips toward Teepo, grasping fruitlessly at the air.

Elize: Aaaah!

Suddenly Elize is lifted into the air.

Elize & Teepo: Eeeek!

Elize: Hm... Tee... po... Where... Teepo...

Elize: Teepo? Teepo!

Elize: It's so dark and scary... I don't want to be alone... I'm so scared...

Elize: Teepo... Don't leave me alone!

In a darkness deep and pure, Elize earnestly stretches out her arms.

Soon a single light appears before her.

Elize: What? A light?

Elize: Nnh...

???: That's... Since... she's here...

Elize: (Who's that? Teepo? Jude?)

???: Yeah... For... time being...

Elize: Hmm?

???: Hey, she's wakin' up!

???: You all right, missy?

Elize: Hmm? I, uh...

Shifty Goon 1: What are you doin' in a place like this? Where's your mommy and daddy?

Elize: I, uh... I don't have any...

Shifty Goon 2: No parents, huh? How about that.

Shifty Goon 1: Sure sounds tough...

The men exchange glances in front of Elize, who has yet to comprehend what happened to her.

Shifty Goon 2: All right, kid. What say you come with us?

Elize: What? I, uh... Eeek!

Elize: No, I don't want to! Teepo! Where are you?

Elize resists, but the men grab her arms and begin to drag her off.

Elize: Eeek! Stop!

Shifty Goon 1: Simmer down, brat!

Elize: Teepo! Jude! Help me!

Shifty Goon 2: You damn brat! Calm down already!

Elize: N-no... Teepo... Where are you? Oh, Teepo!

???: Elly! Elly!

As she continues to cry out her friend's name, a voice answers.

Elize: T-Teepo!

Teepo: Elly!

At long last the girl's hands grasp her treasured friend.

Their reunion will bring with it a new encounter, this time with (Captain)'s crew.
