Chapter Three sneak preview, "The Magic Within"

Tori was keeping her mind preoccupied by beating on a punching bag to give in to sleep, contrary to what Richie was doing. She had a hard time sleeping because she had been thinking about Duncan and the time he was under the influence of the Dark Quickening.

Richie wasn't faring any better. As a matter of fact, he was the one who was nearly beheaded by his own teacher. He felt betrayed and realized this was a part of the game. Tori managed to keep him together to some extent. He had taken heads of some immortals, but she had managed to cool him off when he was at his worst. There was no telling what could have happened if Tori was not there with him, trying her best to keep him at bay before he could do something he would truly regret.

One final swift kick knocked the bag off the chain, causing it to land on the floor. Tori panted as she looked down at it.

Suddenly, it turned into Ming. She screamed, throwing herself onto him and beating it roughly.

“Go ahead and kill me, but what good will it do for you?”

Tori paused and stepped back. Felicia uttered those words to her before she took her head, leading to her first Quickening.

She had Duncan and the whole situation on her mind, and remembered the conversation she and Richie had with Joe before they left Seacouver.

A Year Ago

“He was going to do it,” Richie told Joe, “he was going to take my head.”

“He probably would have done so had it not been for you,” Tori added, “and Mac probably would have taken my head too after that. He was ruthless.”

“You knew he couldn't help it,” Joe tried assuring them.

Tori took a deep breath, trying to believe it. If this was a Dark Quickening as the myth had it, chances were Duncan was corrupted.

On the other hand, Richie shook his head, “If you weren't there, I'd be dead.”

“But that wasn't Duncan MacLeod,” Joe insisted.

“You knew the hell it was it,” Richie interjected, “where is he now?”

“Yeah Joe,” Tori added, “where is MacLeod?”

“He's halfway to Europe,” Joe answered. She couldn't make out what he said to them before that, but that was all they needed, especially Richie.

“Look, Richie, Tori,” Joe glanced at his two immortal friends, “you guys might want to spend some time on holy ground. Sort all this out.”

“Seriously?” Tori slightly scoffed.

“Sort this out,” Richie rolled his eyes, “oh man, the guy I trusted.....”

“We trusted,” Tori added in.

“He tried to kill us,” Richie continued.

“Richie,” Joe began.

“No,” Richie interrupted, “the reason doesn't matter. It was him. It was Duncan MacLeod. You know what's funny? All this time, I've been thinking all this whole 'There can be only one' thing, I'm thinking that's just talk. I'm thinking there's no way MacLeod would ever come for me, or Tori. I didn't believe it. I couldn't believe it.”

“A part of me felt the same way,” Tori nodded in agreement.

“Now,” Richie looked right at Joe, “now we do.”

He left the bar moments later. Tori had a plan in mind. She wasn't going to let Richie know just yet, or Joe for that matter.

She handed him a piece of paper.

“What's this?” Joe asked.

“My email,” Tori answered, “if Duncan MacLeod does happen to come around, let me know. Maybe then, hopefully, I can bring Richie around.”

“If there's anyone that can bring him around,” Joe smiled as he accepted the paper, “I'm pretty certain that would be you.”

All I wanted was for Joe to be allowed to use the F word, and by god, the Reunion gave it to us. I needed to make this gif. Nay, I needed to make two versions, one of which has his fist bump with the love of his life Methos.

Poetry in Movies and Television: Highlander - The Modern Prometheus

Episode S05E17: Lord Byron, the brilliant Romantic poet, is alive and well and living the decadent life of a rock star.

The poems in the episode are by Lord Byron:

To A Lady Who Presented The Author With The Velvet Band Which Bound Her Tresses

This Band, which bound thy yellow hair Is mine, sweet girl! thy pledge of love; It claims my warmest, dearest care, Like relics left of saints above.

Childe Harold's Pilgrimage

CXXIV.

We wither from our youth, we gasp away -- Sick -- sick; unfound the boon -- unslaked the thirst, Though to the last, in verge of our decay, Some phantom lures, such as we sought at first -- But all too late, -- so are we doubly curst. Love, fame, ambition, avarice -- 'tis the same, Each idle -- and all ill -- and none the worst -- For all are meteors with a different name, And Death the sable smoke where vanishes the flame.

LXXVIII.

Foil'd, bleeding, breathless, furious to the last, Full in the centre stands the bull at bay, Mid wounds, and clinging darts, and lances brast, And foes disabled in the brutal fray: And now the Matadores around him play, Shake the red cloak, and poise the ready brand: Once more through all he bursts his thundering way -- Vain rage! the mantle quits the conynge hand, Wraps his fierce eye -- 'tis past -- he sinks upon the sand!

CLXXXV.

My task is done—my song hath ceased—my theme �� Has died into an echo; it is fit.

She Walks in Beauty

She walks in beauty, like the night Of cloudless climes and starry skies; And all that’s best of dark and bright Meet in her aspect and her eyes; Thus mellowed to that tender light Which heaven to gaudy day denies. One shade the more, one ray the less, Had half impaired the nameless grace Which waves in every raven tress, Or softly lightens o’er her face; Where thoughts serenely sweet express, How pure, how dear their dwelling-place. And on that cheek, and o’er that brow, So soft, so calm, yet eloquent, The smiles that win, the tints that glow, But tell of days in goodness spent, A mind at peace with all below, A heart whose love is innocent!
