Did you ever sit and wonder about what it would be like to be someone else. Growing up… did you ever play like you were someone else or have imaginary friends? For most kids… that stops after a while. Oh you still wonder what it is like to be other people but you stop seeing your pretend friends. You stop playing and you use your imagination less and less. That is normal behavior to grow up and let the childish stuff disappear, but… what if it didn’t? What if your whole life you still heard voice or even could change who you were, sometimes without even trying.

Scene opens with Christine sitting on the deck out back of the house she was staying in with her boyfriend John Austin. She had her laptop out as she had just finished skyping with her mom and siblings giving them a update on her and the kids. She decides to do some research on her problems. The doctor had told her she had Dissociative identity disorder (DID) so she hit Web MD up and started reading.

Quote:Dissociative identity disorder (DID), formerly called multiple personality disorder, is an illness that is characterized by the presence of at least two clear personality states, called alters, which may have different reactions, emotions, and body functioning. DID is diagnosed nine times more often in females than in males. A history of severe abuse is thought to be associated with DID. Signs and symptoms of DID include memory lapses, blackouts, being often accused of lying, finding apparently strange items among one's possessions, having apparent strangers recognize them as someone else, feeling unreal, and feeling like more than one person. As there is no specific diagnostic test for DID, mental health professionals perform a mental health interview, ruling out other mental disorders, and referring the client for medical evaluation to rule out a physical cause for symptoms. Individuals with DID often also suffer from other mental illnesses, including posttraumatic stress disorder, borderline and other personality disorders, and conversion disorder. People with DID may have trouble keeping a job and maintaining relationships and are at risk for engaging in drug and alcohol abuse as well as hurting themselves and others.

Christine: Yip… that sounds like me. I am surprise anyone has anything to do with me at all. It was certainly the cause for Matt and I not working out but not the way they are saying. I just hope it don’t mess up me and John.

She reads on as she starts to yawn.

Quote:Dissociative identity disorder (DID) is a mental illness that involves the sufferer experiencing at least two clear identities or personality states, also called alters, each of which has a fairly consistent way of viewing and relating to the world. Some individuals with DID have been found to have personality states that have distinctly different ways of reacting, in terms of emotions, pulse, blood pressure, and blood flow to the brain. This disorder was formerly called multiple personality disorder (MPD) and is often colloquially referred to as split personality disorder.

Signs and symptoms of dissociative identity disorder include

•lapses in memory (dissociation), particularly of significant life events, like birthdays, weddings, or birth of a child;
•experiencing blackouts in time, resulting in finding oneself in places but not recalling how one traveled there;
•being frequently accused of lying when they do not believe they are lying (for example, being told of things they did but do not recall, unrelated to the influence of any drug or medical condition);
•finding items in one's possession but not recalling how those things were acquired;
•encountering people with whom one is unfamiliar but who seem to know them sometimes as someone else;
•being called names that are completely unlike their own name or nickname;
•finding items they have clearly written but are in handwriting other than their own;
•hearing voices inside their head that are not their own;
•not recognizing themselves in the mirror;
•feeling unreal (derealization);
•feeling like they are watching themselves move through life rather than living their own life;
•feeling like more than one person.

Finally she closed her laptop as she was getting rather sleepy. She places it on the table next to the chair she was sitting in. She lays back in the chair to recline and closed her eyes. The sound of the waves was peaceful and helped her relax as she starts to doze it didn’t take long for her to fall fast asleep.

(Switching to first person)

Christine: Where am I? What… what happened?

Child: Chrissy! You here!

Christine: Yes I am here… wherever here is?

I look around the room I am in. It was dark and cold and damp. I tried to get up to walk and noticed a chain attached to my ankle that was attached to the wall I was leaning against. I looked and the child in front of me and She had a collar around her neck with a chain attached the the wall across from me.

Christine: Why are we chained?

Child: Angel did it. She bad, and she wants control. She wants to destroy everything... Everyone! Don’t worry Chrissy. We are safe here.

Christine: How are we safe when we are held as prisoners?

Child: We are not prisoners Chrissy. No… we come and go… close your eyes, take a deep breath, then open.

I close my eyes and take the deep breath like she said and when I open my eyes… the scene changed. The chains are gone and now we are sitting under a tree in a meadow with a tea set in front of us all set up.

Child: There much better. I like this place. I like to play here. Would you like some tea Chrissy?

I look around wondering what happened? First I am in a dungeon and now I am in a meadow? What is going on? Am I going crazy? I am sitting here with my alter child having tea in the middle of no where.

Christine: Umm ok.

I was surprised when the little girl really poured tea in the cup.

Child: I know you want 2 sugars.

Christine: Yes? But…

Child: We know everything. We know all about you and Matt and what happened and how you feel and we know all about you and John Austin and we know what will happen. We also know that if you don’t embrace the darkness or you don’t embrace the hate… you will never win this match. If you don’t put the past behind you and embrace the pain… you won’t win. You need that power to push you… to drive you Chrissy. You need to let her… the scary one take over and control you and dominate so that you can drive forward and win this match.

Christine: Embrace the hate? Embrace the darkness? Are you supposed to be the good one? The innocent one?

Child: I am… to a point. I am young, and all this effects me. What I see… I learn and I become. The longer I am with her... the more like her I will become. Chrissy… you are the only one that can save us. You are the only one that can that can stop it.

I look at her. I am not sure what to think. This child… she is so young yet speaks as if she is a adult. She says I can stop it. How? How am I supposed to stop it? How do I change the unknown and change something I can not even control. I gave up everything for the demon. I gave up my family… the man I was engaged to. And for what? To keep her from killing him. Now I find a new love… start a new life and fear what she might do to mess this up for me. How she might hurt him like she did Matt. I look away… not wanting to show the pain this is causing.

Child: It hurts don’t it? She is in control… even when you think you are… she is in control.

Christine: She is the dominate one?

Child: Yes... Angel is in charge. When you control the body... She locks me in the room and won't let me out. Not until it is my turn. Now you have 2 big matches and you have to be ready for them. And you know the second one is gonna hurt the most.

I look down at the tea as she talks.

Child: But first you need to focus on that title. You need to show how much you hunger for it. Chrissy, you know Angel and I are part of you and we are protecting you. You need to do this. You need to let everything and everyone go and focus on winning this match. Matty is not important, Johnny is not important, the kids are not important. Right now the only thing that matters is you win. You do anything you have to do and play as dirty as you need to. This is your time to shine... Your time to show all the doubters what Christine Nash is all about. Let the Angel fully take over your heart, your mind, your soul and body.

I take a deep breath as she said that. I don't want to give up that much control. What if I can't get it back? I can't live with the fact that she might hurt someone else like she did Matt.

Child: You haven’t drank your tea yet. Please Chrissy…. drink.

I take a sip and then all of the sudden I get very sleepy and I pass out.

(Meanwhile.)

She wakes up not as Christine but as the Twisted Angel!

Twisted Angel: My personal terror is about to be over as I rise up with a new outlook on life ,with my family that has been there for me since day one. It is time… for the Revolution!

End Part one!
