Rebel Magic - Part Two Wizards vs Aliens

-I will bring the wizard to you.

-You have one Earth day!

-You'd better let him go.

-Who are you?

I'm Jackson Hawke. I'm a wizard.

The wizard with such power. Just imagine!

That magic - what was it?

-You hang out with an Unenchanted?

-Maifash-braak-dah!

-You humiliated those people.

-Do you choose me or him, Tommy boy?

Where is the wizard, runt?

What?!

It's Varg, isn't it?

Let him go!

Two wizards!

-My father will be happy.

-You haven't caught us yet.

You will surrender or I will disintegrate this halfling.

Don't care. Don't even know him.

-Tom!

-Jackson, banish him!

-Stay back!

-We've got to do something!

You do it.

Come on, Tom, it's easy!

Create a vortex and send him away.

His inferior magic cannot harm me!

Mine can. And so can yours.

It's there, deep down inside you.

Didn't you sense it, feel it, that forbidden magic?

Enough! Wizards, you will come with me.

Remember, Tom, we're the kings of the world.

-Forget the rules and the words and just let it out!

-Tom!

No!

I did it.

Argh!

Are you OK?

I dunno.

My head hurts...

It's all right. You'll get used to it.

It's like it's on fire but it was awesome.

Did you see it? Did you see what I did?

Now do you see what we're capable of?

But where's he gone?

Who cares? Away from here.

What? You mean you could have sent him anywhere?

Like a school or a hospital or something?

Where did he banish you to this time, brother, the North Pole?

No.

The South.

Why did you leave me behind? Can't you see he's...bad?

Come on, Benny. We were just having a laugh.

Look at the state of you! We don't know anything about him.

I didn't know anything about you a few weeks ago.

-We've been in the same class since Year 7.

-Yeah, but I didn't know you.

Look, I don't get what the problem is.

So, just for once, I didn't go home and do my homework

or my stone script.

You know, my life used to be fun.

-It still is. We have a laugh, don't we?

-I dunno.

Everything's changed since I let you be friends with me.

-Even Quinn thinks I'm a loser.

-You "let" me?

I don't know.

I didn't mean it like it like that.

I'm your friend, Tom, and I can see something is wrong here.

So, yeah, I know it's not the cool thing to do,

but as I'm not cool, who cares?

I'm going to tell your dad and your gran exactly what's going on.

Ah, Benny, come on! We're just having a laugh.

Don't you see? It's all just a game.

CUCKOO CLOCK CHIMES

Benny?

-What have you done to him?

-He needed to chill out.

So I've made him forget the last 12 hours even happened.

Benny boy, wakey, wakey!

Oh! I'm going to be late for school.

I'll see you later, Mum.

See you later, sweetheart.

Is he going to be all right?

Course he is. And with him out of the way, we can have some real fun!

-What do you mean?

-It's simple.

You can't use your magic for fun any more because of the Nekross.

So if we destroy them, we can do anything we want.

Powerful magic!

Oh, how I hunger!

I tried to capture him.

And yet you failed...

again!

I shall have you thrown to the Skorpulus.

I understand. I promise I will get him next time, Father.

No, Varg. That was your last chance.

Father?

No!

I beg you, no!

You have failed me for the last time.

But I am your son.

Guards!

Father, please!

Do something!

Help me!

-Please!

-Father!

Yes, daughter?

I...

I can capture the wizard, but...I need Varg.

Oh, really?

He knows the wizard's capability and location better than I.

The boy is powerful but Varg and I combined will be stronger.

Release him.

But do not fail me, Lexi,

or you will join him in the pit.

I do not understand.

You saved me.

If this wizard is as powerful as you say, how could I alone defeat him?

I do not wish to join you in the pit.

He's still not answering.

Tom's a good lad. He'll be with Benny somewhere.

You know what they're like.

I shouldn't have had a go at him this morning.

DOORBELL RINGS

Avengers assemble!

Benny, what are you doing here? Is everything all right?

Morning, Mr Clarke. Is Tom ready for school yet?

What's happened to you? Where's Tom, Benny?

Where could he have got to do you...?

Ursula?

It's not the Nekross.

Not the Nekross.

CUCKOO CLOCK CHIMES

It's magic.

A wizard's done this to him.

It's beautiful.

I don't really like guns.

We can use this to fight the Nekross.

You and me, fighting back. No more being pushed around.

No more hiding.

Yeah, but...

Wizards, well, we don't kill, do we?

Don't you get it?

It's like taking the pizza - we can do what we want!

And we want to bring down the Nekross, don't we?

I know but...maybe we should talk to my dad.

Why? We don't need him!

We don't need parents telling us what we can and can't do!

We're in charge!

Jackson, can't you put that down for just a moment?

Or at least turn the volume off.

Listen to what your mum says.

Jackson!

Look, my parents - they disappeared years ago.

Oh.

I'm sorry.

No, it's all good.

I'm better off without them.

Look at everything I've got!

We don't need people telling us what to do. We're free, Tom.

Until tonight, we're going to work out how to use this

and we're going to make a plan, because as soon as the sun rises,

me and you - we're going to save the world!

If Tom doesn't get up soon, we're going to be really late for school.

Yeah, well, Tricia, you know what boys are like.

I thought they told you he was staying here.

Er, no. Um, well, he's in bed, but I'll tell him in the morning.

OK, bye.

Oh, she's not happy. Apparently, he missed a violin lesson.

What's happened to him?

Oh, Michael, he's had his time turned back.

He thinks it's this morning.

I mean...

Tom... Tom wouldn't do this, would he?

Of course not!

But it's not just a spell, Michael.

I can feel it.

Like mercury in my bones.

It's forbidden.

It's...

..Grim Magic.

So we wait until sunrise, then we'll have six spells between us.

Yeah, OK, I get that, but what are we going to do?

Magic doesn't work on them.

Grim Magic does. It's like the banishment charm.

It gives us power.

Yeah, I get that, but what exactly are WE going to do?

Simple - we're going up to their spaceship.

What?!

-Just us?

-Are you chicken?

This isn't a game.

The Nekross have consumed all the magic in the Universe.

Yeah, but that would have been ordinary magic,

and we've got so much more than that.

Cats' claws and monkeys' paws! Grim Magic!

I'll be sensing Grim Magic!

Mistress, why will you be bringing Grim Magic here?

Look, just what is this Grim Magic?

Oh, by the snakes of Medusa,

it will be even worse than your sky monsters, that's for sure.

Everything on this Earth contains natural magic -

you, me, the trees, the fish in the sea.

For you Unenchanted, though, it's gone.

Centuries of evolving and science and technology -

you've lost it.

Wizards - we embraced it, but even we have to control it.

We have to be taught how to use it

because deep down inside all of us is Grim Magic. Forbidden Magic.

Magic that allows us to harm others, to hurt, to destroy.

But who is it? Who's done this?

Whoever it is, they must be so stupid. Stupid, stupid, stupid...

-Stupid!

-What do you mean?

It's dangerous magic, Michael.

And it burns.

Even in the strongest wizard, it burns.

And the more it burns, the more you want to use it.

And the more you use it, the more it burns. Until...

..one day...

..it'll burn you right out of existence.

Right. So you can break the spell with normal magic?

Benny might be able to tell us where Tom is.

Grim Magic's so strong, I don't know if I can.

But I'll try.

I'll try, Michael.

It's nearly sunrise. It'll soon be time to fight.

And we're going to destroy the Nekross once and for all.

After today, nobody's going to be hassling you about homework.

We're going to be warrior wizards. We're going to be heroes!

And you're going to teach me to use this...other magic?

Oh, yeah. We're in this together now. Don't you see?

This is our destiny!

Brothers in magic.

Brothers in magic.

Mistress, be performing the spell!

The Grim Magic will be hurting Randal Moon.

SHE CLEARS HER THROAT

By the fire of the sea, the...

Oh, oops! That's not quite right.

By the fire of the sun, the rage of the sea, the fury of the winds...

Ursula, you can't mess this up.

Spirits of my ancestors, hear me.

Let the veils part and join me.

I, your humble descendant, ask that you hear me.

Please hear me.

Fayer-sharn-dah!

Release this sweet child from his sleep.

Return him to us.

Meess-kyfah-dah!

Rise up through me so that he may be free.

Purge the Grim Magic from his soul.

Benjamin Sherwood!

Byfar-torak-gah!

Awake!

Benny?

Where...

Why am I here?

What... What happened?

You were under some kind of spell,

something called Grim Magic.

Jackson!

Tom's with him! His name's Jackson Hawke.

Hawke!

I... I knew them.

They disappeared.

Varg was in the house and Tom did this spell and it was...

I've never seen anything like it!

It was like he was some kind of...super wizard.

Tom used Grim Magic!?

Oh, the boy, the poor boy! We have to get to them!

Benny, you have to take us to them now!

It's time to face our destiny.

It's time to save the world!

-You ready?

-I'm ready.

Oh, I love being a wizard!

Yeah! Six new spells between us. We're unstoppable!

It feels different.

I feel different!

It's the Grim Magic. You've used it now, it's part of you.

And it's the best magic ever!

How are we going to get up to the ship?

We're not. They're going to be looking for us, yeah?

-I guess.

-So help them. Embrace your power and strength, Tom.

Come on, then!

Come and get me!

Bring it on!

-SIRENS

-Magic detected! Location confirmed.

What have you done?!

We're going to destroy the Nekross, Benny boy!

We'll teleport down together and begin the hunt.

No, brother. That will not be necessary.

-Tom, we've got to get out of here!

-This is our destiny!

Take them to the cells

while the extractor is reconfigured for this new magic.

My boy... I've lost him.

We did it! We did it!

You've got us captured by the Nekross.

Yeah, well done(!)

It's all part of the plan!

You know that magic you're using? It's destroying you!

-What?

-Your gran told me. Grim Magic.

it messes with your head and it burns you up, like fire.

-Grim Magic?

-That's ridiculous.

Really? Because your behaviour is so sensible(!)

Sensible or cool?

Definitely cool.

SIRENS

What is happening?

The wizards must not escape!

I hunger!

It's time we had some fun.

Tom, his mind's broken! Twisted!

And if you keep using that same magic,

the same thing will happen to you.

That's IF we even get out of here alive.

Please, YOU can stop this.

You know, I'm sick of people telling me what I can and can't do.

The runt.

I surrender!

So which way to the bridge?

I can't remember! This will tell us.

Benny?

Where's Benny?

I dunno. Can't you work it?

Benny's the clever one. He might not have magic but...

He wouldn't just stay behind in the cell.

He's probably hiding under a blanket or something. Come on!

He's not a coward, Jackson. He's actually pretty brave.

OK, look, we'll get him later, yeah?

No. We have to go back for him!

We haven't got time!

You'd leave him behind?

He's my friend. What's wrong with you?

See, this is why I don't have mates. People just complicate things.

Benny was right. There is something about the Grim Magic.

I can feel it.

Like fire. Like losing control.

That doesn't matter! None of this matters!

I'm ordering you to forget about Benny.

You don't tell me what to do.

Benny is my friend and I'm going back for him.

Tom. Tom!

It is regrettable I will not get to rip you limb from limb myself,

but at least I will be able to enjoy your screams as it eats you alive.

One day, one day someone will stop you lot,

and I hope it hurts.

VARG LAUGHS

So, is this is a private party or can anyone join in?

About time!

-(NEKROSS KING)

-Bring them to me! I hunger!

-I hunger!

-Oh, I don't think so.

If you destroy me,

you will destroy the ship.

You will die.

Look, maybe everyone should just calm down a bit, yeah?

All of you just get back and shut up. I'm in control here.

The readings are off the scale.

Such powerful, uncontrollable magic burning through you.

Burning!

-Anyone moves and I'll banish him.

-THE KING LAUGHS

You would not dare!

Oh, you have no idea what I'm capable of.

I've just found this letter from school in your room.

No wonder you hid it from us. What are you doing...?

You're doing my head in! Why won't you just leave me alone?

Argh!

Mum?

I sent them so far away.

Y-You banished your own parents?

That is...horrific.

Primitive creature!

They made me angry! They shouldn't have made me angry!

I... I lost control!

It just came out of me. I couldn't stop and...

But I'm fine.

I'm good.

I'm in control now.

Jackson, you're not thinking straight!

The Grim Magic - you're ill. You've used it so many times.

Perhaps this is it.

But at least I'll finally get something right.

You've got to stop him!

I have no family, no friends, nothing.

That's not true!

My mum died and I know it hurts.

It hurts so much, you think there's nothing else.

Everything is nothing but pain.

But it gets better.

You've got mates now! You've got me.

Jackson, I know you miss your parents but this, this is too much.

I don't.

I don't miss them.

Don't you say that! Don't you dare say that!

You look me in the eye and tell me you really mean that.

Look at me!

'You're still my little star today.'

It was an accident.

They never came back.

-Guards, stun him.

-No!

You hurt him and I'll banish you myself.

You can't use the Grim Magic.

You'll become like me.

You're my mate. Brothers in magic, yeah?

It doesn't end up here.

-(LEXI)

-There's no escape, humans.

The magic that can get you home might just destroy you.

We don't even know how it works. We could end up in space.

But if there's a chance of it saving my friends, it's worth a try.

No, Tom!

No!

Guards, do not let them escape!

We're going home!

You're OK!

I'm sorry, Dad.

You poor babies.

You did it!

You saved us!

You controlled it, you banished us back here.

That's impossible. You can't control Grim Magic.

I had to. For all of us.

Jackson!

I'm sorry.

What for?

Everything I said, everything I did.

I'm an idiot.

Well, yeah, you are.

But that's all right, cos I'm the clever one.

We can't have two clever ones.

-Geek!

-Idiot!

You know, if you're struggling with homework,

being mates with a geek isn't a bad thing.

Yeah, I guess.

And, you know, if you want to be better at footy...

Yeah, I think you'd need more than magic for that.

Oh, my boys!

-You're best friends again.

-Gran!

Jackson's still asleep.

You sure he's OK?

Getting you all off that ship -

it took so much out of him, but he's powerful.

Far more powerful than he realises.

I was thinking, though, if we could control the Grim Magic,

then we could stop the Nekross.

The next time they come, I could banish them.

You can't.

Don't you see, sweetheart? It's dangerous.

It nearly destroyed Jackson. He lost his parents because of it.

Please, promise me.

Never use that magic.

It's all right, Gran. I promise.

And you're sure you two are all right?

Yes, I've told you, we're fine.

-So can Jackson stay?

-He needs you.

I know he needs help, but... I've got to think about you, Tom.

Then let him stay. For me, please.

He just needs a family, Michael.

He needs looking after.

DOOR SLAMS

Jackson! What are you doing?

Where are you going?

You're right, about having a family and everything.

I've got to find my own.

Just stay with us.

-I can't.

-Jackson.

We'd like you to stay. Really.

I know it can't be easy but perhaps we could help you.

I know he doesn't look much but he's a very good dad, really.

He's OK.

Sometimes I shout when I should listen but, hey,

we're all just trying our best.

Thanks, but, really, I can't.

Are you going to be OK?

I'm Jackson Hawke.

I'll always be OK.

And I don't need Grim Magic anymore.

The great Jackson Hawke.

Just a normal wizard, then.

Just like the rest of us.

Me, normal?

Not exactly.

Dree-taak-zah-dah.

How can he do that?

Now, I'm off to find my mum and dad,

but I'll be back.

Cos you and me, Tom, we're brothers in magic.

Target has entered the school.

Did you see that?

-Magic exists, Adams!

-Damn, it's unbelievable!

Do not move, human. You are a prisoner of the Nekross.

Don't you recognise me?

The form filter makes me appear human.

It allows me to move amongst humans unnoticed and unchallenged.

Hello, I'm Lucy.

Take the wizard and the girl.

What are you doing?!

-No, Tom!

-Gotcha, wizard!
