Scene 7The lights come on to reveal that the scene is a view of the Pit of Despair. There is a table and Brandon is laying on his, his shirt off and tied down to the table by chains around his wrists and ankles.
Enter an Alex who is dressed up as an albino. Alex examines Brandon and starts to cleanse his wounds.
Brandon: *eyes darting around* Where am I?
Alex -albino-: *in a raspy voice* The Pit of Despair....don't even think...*cough, gag* *Alex loses his raspy voice* Don't even think about trying to escape. The chains are far too thick. And don't dream of being rescued either, the only way in is secret. Only the Prince, the Count and I know how to get in and out.
Brandon: Then I'm here 'till I die?
Alex: *still tending to Brandon's wounds* 'Till they kill you, yeah.
Brandon: Then why bother curing me?
Alex: *chuckles to himself* Well, the Prince and the Count always insist on everyone being healthy before they're broken.
Brandon: So it's to be torture. * Alex nods* I can cope with torture. * Alex vigorously shakes his head no* You don't believe me?
Alex: You survived the fire-swamp, you must be very brave. But nobody withstands the machine. *grins and walks away from Brandon, leaving the windian wondering*
