Belunyy Tsevaya: the white moon flower church
So first:
There us a sort if albino thing wich dosnt affect too many ppl and mainly happens in Icea and Iugin. Its not from over breeding but ppl with this thing have a stronger bind with their power. It causes for alot of the pigment to be lost (mainly in hair so brown eyes and skin is still posible.) + they have a very special ability. Icea ppls power are more so related with sleep, dreams, telekenisis, mind control ect. Ppl with the "gift" can cobtrol their power much better (like a god).
White moon flower church:
A "religion" (cult) that "collects" people with the gift. Brainwashes/manipulates them and sell them, use them for... wierd shit.
Icea has a region where 90% of modern technology is banned. This is where the main church id based. Also to keep information within the community.
They teach girls to be propper maidens. Some to marry off (sell) to a rich person. Some they experiment on... some they try to use the powers from. So its split in 3 main parts. Judged by power, beauty and how much they can be manipulated.
Same old but difrent (wip)
It starts with vague talking and imagery to Ilya waking up by a bell. Shes sweating, she knows what she dreamt was not pleasent but cant really remember much of it. Anoushka asks if she ok. It then shows her doing her routine. She is in a room with multiple girls. She gets ready, gets weighted and her height measured. The answer is the same as always "too fat for your height". "Mayby you should loose some weight" Anoushka grumbled silently to Ilya causing Ilya to gigle. All the girls get ready to eat. Most eat the same with exceptions for allergys; a piece of fruit, 2 pieces of bread and some meat or jam for breakfast. Its silent, people are praying then it gets loudly anounced "may she bless us onece again today" the sign they could all eat. The most you hear is some quite chatter. After breakfast classes start. Classes are 8 hours, 4 hours of mental stuff (math, science, historie) and 4 hours of physical (sports, learning how to use daily ware like cooking, doing loundry ect and controling their power). After each 4h they eat. At noon its most of the time something cookd and for dinner something light. All meals are measured and are placed in the designated spot where the girls always sit to eat. After that they have 2 hours of free time and then to bed. Free time consists of 1 hour tv, lisyening to radio, reading, playing a board game, ect. Internet isnt a thing here. Ilya and Anoushka mostly choose to spend time togeter. Ilya writes in her journal before bed. In the weekends the girls must do home work and physical activity. Tvs only get turnd on for 2 hours max. Radios longer. This repeats... has repeated... for as long as Ilya can remember.
Anoushka and Ilya are insepreble. Anoushka is verry talkative, creative and strong. Ilya is shy around others but loves creating. Anouska is the "brains" and Ilya will create them. But physical you can simply blow Ilya away.
-one day- Ilya wakes up to the same things. Writes in her diary, get weighted, eat, yadayada.
But today Anoushka feels off. Ilya isnt sure if shes upset but she has been distand. Mayby she had a bad dream or some things happend with the others girls?
Anoushka and Ilya are hanging out togeter in their lunchbreak after they where done eating.
Ilya isnt sure what to do sine Anoushka is normally a happy person.
Anouska then finally breaks the ice "have you ever thought of leaving?"
-end chapter 0?-
A confusing begining
It opens with the same panel as chapter 0 ends but difr angle.
Anoushka: "have you ever thought of leaving"
Ilya is quite confused and shocked. Ilya: "well, next month lady xxx wants to take us to view the waterfall near xxx"
Anoushka:"i think you misunderstand, leaving here, this *gestures to everything*".
Ilya didnt misubderstood, but was hopeing she was wrong. She tries to think of what to answer but has trouble.
Anoushka:"Ilya, dont you find it troubling that we just... have to stay here... and then get send out to get married or join the Beluny Tsevaya program?"
Ilya:"i-i dont... *looks distraught* i dont know Anoushka. I dont understand, do you feel unhap-"
Anoushka cuts off Ilyas sentence b4 she can finish it."its not that im unhappy. I think our lives are relativly pleasent compared to others. But i feel stuck?"
Show panel of birds in a tree with Anoushka and Ilya far in the bg.
Anoushka:"I have been reading these books about people going in adventures. Exploring dangerous caves, crossing treacherous oceans in hopes of finding unimaginable tresure and just experiencing difrent cultures!" With each word you can see passion rise on Anoushkas face.
Ilya is still quite distraught. Hearing her bestfriend talking about leaving? The only life she has ever known?
Ilya:"Anoushka... im... where is this all coming from? Dont you think thats just a little crazy? + you know with our gift comes the concequence of being in danger from people who want to misuse it"
Anoushka sighs, she seems dissapointed "ofcourse you think that way..." she mutters.
Ilya is hurt by that reply " w-what is that suposed to mean?"
Anoushka looks at Ilya, almost like she want to tell her something... but nothing comes out.
The bell rings meaning they have to return to class.
The rest off the day goas by like any other, but theres now an akward aura around the two friends.
Ilya goes to bed having trouble falling asleep. The same sentence keeps on playing in her head. "Have you ever thought of leaving"
Innermonolog: "have i ever thought of leaving... infact i have. When i was much younger, before Anoushka even got here. My memories are so vague tho... but i remember wanting to find my family. I dont remember who they are but i have a great fondness about them. The ministry told me they found me wandering the streets... they tried finding my familie and kept on looking at the news... but nobody came looking for me. They told me it was likly they abandond me due to my gift... that my familie was scared i would hurt them or that others would hurt them in order to get me.
Im thankful to the ministry for taking me in. To be with people like me, who understand what it is like to live with this gift... + they always teachd us of our duties. The people here in this (house? Building?) Have a low level of the gift. Those that do develp more control can enter the program and those of us who dont shall be married... *ilya gets uncomfortable at that thought*.... married... to a great husband... yes..." eventually she falls asleep.
The next morning Ilya wakes up, writing in her diary again. She looks around and Anouska was already gone wich was unusual as the friends did everything togeter.
When finally at the table to eat breakfast she saw Anoushka.
The air was still wierd. Class went by and at dinner Anouska finally broke the ice: "Ilya can we talk... in private?". Ofcourse Ilya agreed, anouska is her only real friend so she wants to talk it out.
After they ate they go outside but Anouska takes Ilya to the edge of the woods behinde the school(building?)
Ilya: "i know you wanted to talk privetly... but was this necesary?"
Anouska is looking nervously around: "yes... im sorry... i first of all want to excuse me for my behaviour from yesterday. I now realise how it could have come across. But your my friend and therefore i must tell you some things"
Anouska sits down an motions for Ilya to sit down aswel. When both are siting down Anouska graps Ilyas hand.
Anouska: "Ilya, ive known you for so long, your my friend and i love you dearly. *looks into her eyes* and i cant lie to you anymore"
Ilya looks worried. What is going on? But she keeps quite so Anouska can continue.
Anouska takes a deep breath: "you see, anybody you ask here dodnt remember exactly how and somehow we where all below the age of 10... well Ilya, i do remember" Anouska looks down.
"You see, my 'gift' isnt weak like the others, i wasent even suposed to be her-"
Ilya cuts off: "Anouska im sorry, what? You remember!? You never told me? *starts tearing up* im so confused, i-wha" Ilya is stumveling on her words.
Anouska wipes away Ilyas tear: "i know im sorry, it was never the right time... but now that we are almost 18 and our conversation testerday i felt like i couldnt wait any longer."
Anouska is quite for a secen but then speaks up again: "listen Ilya, i want you to know what happend, i want you to know why i did what ive done and i want you to understand that you have every right to be upset with me. But please hear me out"
Ilya grabs Anouskas hands tighter and nods
-end chapter 1-
Name with something young?
Perspective has now changed, slight "style" change? Darker borders? Black white? To make it aperent its a flashback.
It starts with a child of 8?9? They have white hair (aka the significant look if somebody with the gift), wear winterclothes and glasses looking in a window at some toys. An adult woman is holding her hand suposed to be her mother: "Anouska darling, we have to keep going before the stores close"
Kid Anouska looks up at her mother and nods. It zooms out to see a busy city street. As the 2 leave some people come into screen making it clear that they are suspicious.
Next scene is the mother buying some groceries while kid Anouska is holding into her mothers jacket. They then leave the store and the same suspicious people are seen. Then you see kid abouska and mother go into a less budy street its already evening. To them then turn into an alleyway, perhaps a shortcut to home.
At the end one of the suspicious people stands. They think nothing of it and keep on walking.
The next scene you can see somebody grab kid Anouska by the arm pulling her away from her mother followed by kid anouska screaming "AAAA". The mother turns around and as soon as she notices whats hapening the person from the end of the allyway knocks her out... good.
Next scene it shows kid Anouska shocked follewed with tears. You can then see the mother on the grounds with blood around her head. Then followed by Kid Anouska scream/crying "MAMA! NOOO PLEASE LET ME G-" the people atempt to shut kid Anouska up. She bites them and the person holding her exclaims "FUCK! This lil shi-" another person shoots a needle in Anouska and she slowly looses conciecnes.
The screen is black, some "beeps" and "boops are heard. Kid Anouska wakes up. You see her face, it has a brace? On her head holding it to the chair she sitting in. It zooms out to see her strapped in the chair with just a white dress.
Kid anouskas tears start falling down her cheeks softly sobbing "mama... mama where are you... im scared".
Clicking of a door is heard and another voice is heard. "Hello there, im docter xxx" an older man can be seen walking up to her and looking at machinez next to kid anouska and writing some things down. Dr: " might i know your name?"
KA sniff: "Anouska..."
Dr: "i see, Anouska did you know you where born with a great power? You see you have white hair and here in Icea that means the goddess has blessed you with a gift to be closer with your power!"
KA: "i want my mama... where is my mama"
Dr: "well you see *walks to a pc* people with your power and the gift are quite rare. Thats why we, Belunyy Tsevaya come to... pick up people like you"
KA: "please... i just want to go home"
Dr: "well this is your new home! *clicks some vuttons and a machine hooks on to her head* but dont worry this machine shall erase all your memories from before!" He exclaimed a bit too happy.
KA burts out in tears crying. The dr turns on the machine on her head and KA starts screaming.
After awhile it stops, KA looks tired and worn out.
Dr: "hello there im Dr xxx, we found you unconcience on the street and took you here"
KA was too worn out to react. Inner monologue "mama... im... scared".
It cuts to a later time, where KA atempts to escape, fails and gets put in the machine again. She tried 3 more times. Another time she passes some other kids in very bad states, malnourished, in strayjackets, looking not... right.
It cuts to a year later. She stands before the school. Then in the class and gets introduced followed by her sitting next to a very small child with bunny ears (kid Ilya).
The next scene is compleatly black with text explaining: its anouska talking ab herself.
Kid anouskas powers are able to interfiere with waves causing the machine nit to work on her. She knew she had to "play along" as not to end up like those kids in the facility she was in. She figured out that the ppl of BT are collecting kidz with the gift in order to use them. She dosnt know why. Whenever she atempted an escapeplan it wouldbt work out. "And then i became friends with you... and... i... i couldnt leave you"
Next scene is of current anouska, her eyes look watery as if shes about to cry but she gulp and jeeps herself strong.
It ends with Ilya giving Anouska a hug
