TwoKinds: Dimensional Catastrophe

Part 18: Resurrection

A week later...

Sythe A-are they okay?
Florence Are they...dead?
Roslyn I don't know... We have to wait...
Flora But it's been a week!
Roslyn I know, but this takes time.
Raine Wait... I saw something...
Keitha *gasp*

Trace and Tracy awoke, finding themselves deep within the mansion on kip-covered cots.

Trace W-where are we?
Roslyn You are inside. You both nearly died!
Tracy H-how long have we been-
Keith A week.
Trace A week? Yikes... But, what about Neutral?
Tracy It's gone.
Trace Wow, all by yourself... I'm- wait, where's Kyle?
Roslyn Oh, he got up three days before you, used some sort of healing spell.
Tracy What kind?
Roslyn All he said was "Resurrectionem immortalitatis" and walked away.
Trace What?
Sythe Must be some other language...
Keith Probably that's the tongue of his people...
Flora Trace, I'm so glad you're okay!
Trace Thanks...
Florence You...fall for this man?
Trace Like you were supposed to.
Florence But to who?
Trace To her.
Florence Tracy?
Trace Try at least talking to her.
Florence Uh, okay... Uh, hello?
Tracy Hmm?
Florence Are you alright?
Tracy Heh, never better...
Florence Uh, good... So, uh, how do you feel?
Tracy Numb, uh, confused...
Florence Yeah, everything got confusing after that day...
Tracy Yeah, I suppose it has... Are they...
Florence Apparently.
Tracy Huh. Who knew?
Florence Same here... Uh, Tracy?
Tracy Sh-should we try?
Florence *blush* Uh, uh, l-let's remain friends, okay?
Tracy Come here?
Florence Huh?

Kiss!

Tracy That was nice...
Florence I don't know how to feel about this...
Trace Uh, Flora, can you find Kyle?
Flora Oh, okay.
Raine I'll go too.
Nibs Me three.
Raine Still got to get used to that...
Sythe Uh, Nibs?
Florence/Tracy Talking rodents?

After finding him...

Flora/Raine/Nibs Hey, Kyle.
Kyle Aah! Oh, it's you three. What are you doing here?
Flora Trace wanted to know how you were doing.
Kyle I'm fine. Aches throughout my body, though, but still breathing, as always.
Raine What are you doing here?
Kyle I have never seen a sunset this...beautiful before. Oh, and the device has enough charge to get you to the next world.
Raine Wait, wouldn't it have enough charge to get us straight home?
Kyle The second and third charges take twice and thrice as long, so...yeah, but don't you want to see the rest of the worlds?
Raine Well...
Flora Every time we go to a world, we cause chaos!
Kyle But don't you like the thrill
Raine Trace almost died!
Kyle But now he can't!
Raine What?
Flora What do you mean?
Kyle He'll be undyning from now on.
Nibs How?
Kyle I enhanced their body's cell production so they can instantly heal.
Raine Roslyn said you used a spell.
Kyle "Ressurectionem immortalitatis?" It's latin, for "resurrection" and "immortality."
Flora You mean-
Kyle They died, but I "resurrected" them and made them "immortal."
Raine Oh my!
Kyle But keep it between the four of us, okay? Nobody else--even Trace--must know.
Raine Uh, o-okay.
Flora Fine.
Nibs I concur.
Kyle That squirrel's getting smarter... Get Trace, Keith and Sythe; we're leaving soon.
Flora/Raine/Nibs Okay.

Back in the room...

Flora Trace, can you stand?
Trace What?
Raine Can you?
Roslyn Be slow! The spell, remember? Why so quick!?
Raine *sigh* We're leaving soon.
Sythe We are?
Florence You are?
Flora Yeah. Kyle said so. So c'mon, Trace, get up!
Trace Alright then. Uh, you should too, Tracy.
Tracy Uh, help me up?
Florence Just this one time...

Trace and Tracy got up and stood. Tracy hugged Trace.

Tracy I'm going to miss you.
Trace Same...
Raine Everyone, go to the foyer. I'll inform Kyle.

At the foyer...

Sythe/Flora/Raine/Trace/Kyle/Keith/Nibs Bye!
Florence/Tracy/Keitha/Roslyn Bye!

Whoosh!
