🕑 Added 2022-10-25 17:09:28 +0000 UTC(Black out.
Spotlight on Sean
who is lying on the floor,
Rolling in his own blood,
Screaming.)
Sean:
HELP!
Unh.
Somebody help me!
I’ve been stabbed.
(Light on the Man who is now back in his suit with his mask on.
The mask is now completely coated in blood.
The Man:
How long were you lying on the floor?
Sean:
I don’t know
15 minutes.
An hour.
Five Hours.
A day.
I don’t remember.
(He coughs, painfully.
He crawls towards the audience,
Reaching out.)
Somebody PLEASE HELP ME.
The Man:
And when you were finally found,
Who was that came to you rescue.
Sean:
Cody!
(Cody appears above Sean.
He is wearing the Yellow Dress.)
After what seemed like an eternity
Of pain and agony and darkness.
In steps Cody, with his
Perfect hair.
Big wide shoulders.
He stepped in and said...
“The fuck you think you’re doing here?
I thought I told you to run away!
Now look what happened.
But don’t worry!
I’ve got you babe.
I’m going to take care of you.”
And he picked me up and
Carried me to the nurse’s office.
And she called the ambulance
And they took me to the hospital
And Cody never left my side.
Cody never left my side.
They took me into surgery.
And Cody waited in my room.
And he met with my mom.
And he told her what had happened.
How sorry he was that he let it happen.
And when I woke up he was right there
Beside my bed.
Waiting for me.
The Man/Cody:
That’s not what happened.
(Cody disappears.)
Sean:
What?
The Man:
Cody never came back today.
He never picked you up.
He never stayed by your side.
You made it all up.
A coach found you and called 911
and helped the EMT’s carry you out of there.
But Cody never came back.
He got the news from your mom
He had to explain to your her that he left you.
He never bucked up the courage to visit you.
Why did you lie to me, Sean?
Why have you been lying to yourself?
Is it to stop yourself from hating him?
Sean:
Shut up!
Just shut up!
Alright?
Just let me have this.
The Man:
You don’t even hate Seth
For what he did to you,
Do you?
You don’t blame him.
You wanted to self-destruct
After what Cody did to you.
He’s the one you blame.
He might as well have been the one
To plunge the knife into your stomach,
And rip your guts out.
Sean:
...No....
That’s not...
The Man:
It is.
You just need to let yourself feel the Anger.
(Darkness again.
Sean screams out in pain.
Not in pain from the wound.
But from pain caused by facing reality.
In the darkness, a silhouette can be seen.
A humanoid figure stands contorted in pain.
Sean’s screams grow.
They become deeper and more animalistic.
Dropping into a low growl.
Suddenly horns sprout
From the humanoid figures head,
Accompanied by the sound of tearing flesh.
The low growl rises to a high pitched bovine screech.)
