**Title:** *Elementibox – Episode 3: Duststorm Divide* **Featuring Characters from:** *Dusty Like Air* **New Heroes:** **Lüfte**, **Cactusian**, **Windgill**, **Runchu**, **Axelitl** **[SCENE 1 – THE WHISPERING WASTES]** *A vast desert stretches endlessly. Dust devils dance across the dunes. The air hums with tension. Enter: **LÜFTE**, gliding just above the sand, eyes narrowed.* **LÜFTE** “The Ember Core and Frosted Fragment have awakened. The winds say the third is near.” *From beneath a cactus, **CACTUSIAN** emerges, brushing sand off his spines.* **CACTUSIAN** “Then we’d better find it before the others do. I don’t want another shard turning someone into a sandstorm psycho.” *A sudden gust. **WINDGILL** swoops in, wings tattered but determined.* **WINDGILL** “Trouble. Runchu’s got lost. They're heading for the Dustspire.” **[SCENE 2 – THE DUSTSPIRE ASCENT]** *The team climbs the Dustspire, wind howling around them. At the summit, the air is eerily still. **RUNCHU** stands beside a swirling vortex, arms stubby but determined.* **LÜFTE** “Runchu! You made it. Any sign of the Gale Fragment?” **RUNCHU** (Nods, pointing toward the vortex) **WINDGILL** “Still silent, still solid. That’s our Runchu.” *A sudden shift in the wind. A figure descends from the clouds, riding a current of mist and static. He lands with a soft thud—**CLOUDY**, cloaked in vapor, eyes glowing faintly.* **CLOUDY** (Smiling) “Name’s Cloudy. I drift where the wind forgets. And right now... it’s remembering too much.” **CACTUSIAN** “Great. Another cryptic breeze.” **CLOUDY** “Not cryptic. Just cautious. The Gale Fragment’s not alone anymore.” **[SCENE 3 – THE FRAGMENT STIRS]** *The Gale Fragment pulses within the vortex, reacting to Cloudy’s presence. The winds swirl tighter, forming a protective barrier.* **AXELITL** “It’s resonating with him. Like it knows him.” **CLOUDY** (Quietly) “It should. I was its first guardian... before the fog took hold.” *Everyone turns. The sky darkens. A low rumble echoes across the dunes.* **[ENDING TEASE – FOG ON THE HORIZON]** *Far off, a wall of fog rolls in, swallowing the desert in silence. A distorted voice whispers through the wind.* **MYSTERIOUS VOICE (V.O.)** “Cloudy returns... but the fog remembers.” **[TO BE CONTINUED]**
