THE FALL FROM SPACE

CHAPTER 1: The Fall From Space

Scene 1: Outer Space – Unknown Dimension

[Panel 1]

Black space filled with glowing lines, stars glitching like broken pixels. Yunjun floats unconscious in the center, wearing futuristic armor. His long hair waves weightlessly.

AI (dialogue bubble, glitching font):

“Sir! Sir! Space-time is collapsing! Memory system… failing…!”

[Panel 2]

A glowing red warning fills the space near Yunjun’s head.

AI:

“Yunjun, please respond…”

[Panel 3]

A white flash begins to engulf him.

AI:

“Emergency time-jump initiated. Destination: 196 BC... Unknown coordinates…”

Scene 2: Forest – 196 BC

[Panel 4]

Yunjun falls from the sky like a comet. A crater explodes in a quiet, misty forest.

[Panel 5]

Smoke rises. A young girl in ancient village clothes, Alysa, watches from behind a tree, wide-eyed.

Alysa (thought):

“What… fell from the sky?”

Scene 3: Crater Edge – Forest Clearing

[Panel 6]

Yunjun lies unconscious, surrounded by steam and broken armor plates. His body glows faintly.

[Panel 7]

Close-up of his eyes opening slowly. He groans.

Yunjun:

“Ugh… Where… am I?”

Scene 4: Alysa Approaches

[Panel 8]

Alysa steps closer, carefully holding a wooden staff.

Alysa:

“...Who are you? Are you hurt?”

[Panel 9]

Yunjun sits up, blinking. The AI speaks in his ear (text surrounded by a tech bubble).

AI:

“Language detected: Archaic Eastern dialect. Translating…”

Scene 5: Yunjun Tries to Speak

[Panel 10]

He looks at Alysa, confused but calm.

Yunjun:

“I am… I don’t remember…”

Alysa (softly):

“Did the gods send you?”

[Panel 11]

Yunjun looks up at the sky, eyes dazed.

Yunjun (thought):

“Gods? No… I fell…”

End Panel – Distant Eyes Watching

[Panel 12]

From the forest shadows, a cloaked figure watches them. The symbol of the God of Light cult glows on their chest.

CHAPTER 2: A World Unknown

Scene 1: Village Path – Early Morning Mist

[Panel 1]

Yunjun walks beside Alysa on a dirt path surrounded by trees. He’s wearing patched-up armor and a torn cape now.

Yunjun (thinking):

“This world… so ancient… so slow. Like walking through memory fragments.”

Alysa (smiling gently):

“You walk like you’ve never touched grass before.”

Scene 2: Small Stream – Lighthearted Moment

[Panel 2]

They stop by a stream. Yunjun stares at the water, mesmerized.

Yunjun:

“Your world is broken, yet peaceful.”

Alysa:

“Yours sounds like a storm.”

Scene 3: Playful Flirting

[Panel 3]

Yunjun suddenly turns to Alysa with a dramatic expression, tears welling up.

Yunjun (hand on heart):

“Your eyes… like twin stars in a ruined sky… sob marry me?”

[Panel 4]

Alysa blushes and looks away.

Alysa:

“What’s wrong with you?”

[Panel 5]

Small AI icon appears in Yunjun’s ear, smirking digitally.

AI (teasing):

“Smooth.”

Scene 4: Village Elder’s House

[Panel 6]

A dark wooden room. Candles flicker. The Elder, wrinkled and serious, sits with a staff.

Elder:

“The girl… Alysa… she’s marked by lightning. Tengfeng of the God of Light cult wants her for a ‘sacrifice.’”

Yunjun:

“Then we’ll leave. I’ll protect her.”

Scene 5: Cult Shadows

[Panel 7]

Cut to a hidden temple. Cultists in white and gold armor kneel before a glowing orb.

Tengfeng (villain):

“The Lightning One has awakened. Send scouts. Kill the outsider.”

Scene 6: Night Camp – Yunjun and Alysa

[Panel 8]

Alysa sits near a small fire, holding her knees.

Alysa:

“Why are you helping me? You don’t even know me.”

[Panel 9]

Yunjun looks at her quietly.

Yunjun:

“Because… when I saw you… I felt something. Like I was supposed to.”

Scene 7: Final Panel – Lightning in the Sky

[Panel 10]

The night sky. A bolt of lightning strikes a distant tree. Yunjun and Alysa look up.

AI (serious tone):

“That wasn’t natural. They're coming.”
