Scene: Interdimensional Highway – Inside the Nionderland Tech-Car[The car floats smoothly, its interior sleek and elegant. Frosted glass windows, holographic panels, and body-molding seats. Soft lights line the ceiling. Zack, stoic, drives. Behind him sit Diana, Darius, Inavy, and Rose.]
Darius's MomentDarius (reclining dramatically):— "Zack... are we there yet?These seats are comfy, but even my royal butt has limits..."
[Zack doesn't answer. He simply smirks.]
Darius (gazing outside):— "Nionderland sounds medieval, right?Maybe dragons and wooden taverns with mud soup and scroll maps?"(laughs)
Zack (glancing in the rearview mirror):— "You'll be surprised, kid."
The Futuristic RadioDarius (pointing at the dashboard):— "This thing got Bluetooth at least?Driving in silence is torture..."
Zack (smiles):— "Just say the name of the song."
Darius:— "Seriously? Then play Numb by Linkin Park."
[Instantly, music fills the cabin with surreal clarity. Darius lights up like a kid. and singing "All that I want to do / Is be more like me / And be less like you…"]
Darius (bouncing):— "YEAH!!! NOW we're talking!"
Inavy and Rose Sleeping[Diana crosses her arms and looks back. Darius follows. They notice Inavy and Rose asleep, leaning gently on each other.]
Diana (raising an eyebrow):— "Darius turned music on... and they're quiet?That's suspicious."
Darius (pulling out his phone):— "They're not quiet…They're adorable."
[Flash. Picture taken.]
🛸 Scene: Arrival in Nionderland[The car slows and passes through a golden translucent barrier. Beyond it: a city unlike anything they've seen.]
Floating towers. Suspended roads. Nature intertwined with tech. Ancient script mixed with glowing holograms. The sky filled with lyrical drones and flying ships. Citizens wearing traditional robes with glowing crystal limbs.
Darius (jaw dropped):— "Am I in Wakanda or playing Cyberpunk VR 4D?!"
Rose (eyes wide):— "It's more than I ever imagined..."
Diana (serious, but awed):— "Ancestral tech... spiritual design...Didn't expect this from a 'forgotten land.'"
Zack (smiling):— "Welcome to Nionderland.The City of Nion."
Grand (or Tense) Entry[White-and-gold armored guards surround the car, escorting them to a towering palace carved from living stone, pulsing with energy veins.]
[The heroes are led into a royal hall. At the center: a majestic woman, radiant eyes, and flowing robes — the Queen. Around her, Elders and soldiers.]
Elder (suspicious):— "Who are these outsiders?Nionderland does not welcome the curious."
Zack (calmly):— "They are not curious.One of them... is the one we've waited for, for 10,000 years."
