Nightmare · (07-18-2013)

The scene opens up again in outside the door that leads to Nightmare’s room within the Castle of Demons. The Apprentice is again stood outside, motionless. A noise can be heard from the other side of the large heavy door.

They are voices…

But who’s???

One sounds like Nightmare’s… but the other…

Maybe there is just one voice…

The large door and thick stone walls is making it difficult to really make out anything substantial coming from behind but there is definitely at least one voice that can be heard, it seems to be having a heated argument.

Outside of the room the masked Apprentice remains still not acknowledging whatever is happening or being discussed on the other side of the large wooden door. He is just stood still, waiting… waiting for what we do not know but he is waiting…

On the other side of the door the window has been opened and a cold breeze flows through into the small room, some of the paper clippings from the walls were blowing around the room after a slightly stronger gust of wind had dislodged them from the nail that was holding them in place.

Nightmare sat rocking in a chair, he seemed to be in a state that we have never seen him in before, the source of one of the voice’s that could be heard from outside is now revealed as Nightmare but the other… there is nobody else in this dark cold room. Nightmare still rocking back and forth in his chair, slightly twitching every now and then begins to talk again.

Nightmare:NIGHTMARE!!
We will not fail anymore ,
it is time for the XWF’s reckoning, time for the change.

I KNOW THAT, I WILL NOT FAIL!!
The time is now Nightmare, it is the beginning of the end for the XWF.
THE CONNECTION WILL RISE, yes I already said that,
THE CONNECTION WILL RISE…
The connection will rise…
THE LAT TIME,
Yes, last time…
LAST TIME….
I will not fail…
LAST TIME XWF WILL GO AGAINST US…

Nightmare appears to be talking to himself, arguing with himself. All while he does this he remains in his chair rocking slightly back and forth. He was some paper clippings in his hand scrunched up into a little ball, the camera pans slightly to the desk that sits to the side of him, LUCA ARZEGOTTI, SID FEDER and MR SATELLITE’S names are still very noticeably craved into the desk. There is also a pile of newspapers on the desk, most have which have been ripped and cut, different letters than you can see have been cut out of the paper have been sprawled across the desk. Some of which have been placed in what seemed like a structured order in a way to attempt to make up a word, or name. M R S A T T… That’s as far as it goes. The other letters that had been cut out and dumped on the desk we’re very random, nothing noticeably structured about them.

Nightmare:NO FALIURES, LUCA WILL PAY,
Luca must pay, HE HAS ALREADY COST US SO MUCH, WE MUST FIX THIS ISSUE…
Fix the issue. The issue must be fixed…
WHAT IF SATELLITE GETS IN THE WAY…
We must finish him too,
SID FEDER…
With or without his help
WE MUST SUCCEED,,,
The Connection must succeed.

Nightmare suddenly looks directly up towards the cameras and the strange behavior he had been showing vanishes almost immediately.

Nightmare: We will bring the XWF to its knees , this is only the beginning.

The camera jumps back as Nightmare steps up quickly out of his chair, pulling a knife out of his picked he then slams it down into the large wooden desk and begins to carve something in to the tough wood. As he carved he began to mumble again, nothing in particular just mumbling.

He lifted the knife away from the table then slammed it back down before turning and walking away leaving the knife sticking into the table next to the carving that read… FALIURE

The camera pans around the dark room just in time to see Nightmare disappear through the door and out into the hallway. A few moments late The Apprentice enters the room. He slowly walks towards the large desk which still had the knife wedged tightly into the top of it. The Apprentice reaches down and grabs the Knife twisting it slightly to try and dislodge it from the wooden desk. It does come free eventually and the Apprentice drops it to the floor before rubbing his fingers over the fresh carving his master had created.

The Apprentice: This is getting stranger, everyday.

The Apprentice turns and leaves the room quickly as he knows he cannot be caught in his master’s quarters.

A few moments later Nightmare returns. His mask is in his hand and for the first time ion a long time he can taste the cold breeze that is coming through the open window. He makes his way over to the window and looks out over all of the stone's that read the names of all of his successful missions. He looks over to an empty space by the fence in the far corners of the yard, this was the space where the stone was to be reading the name of John Madison. As previously mention this is not a graveyard were the bodies of the dead are buried, no this is a graveyard where the evil souls that Nightmare has removed from the subjects of his many missions, the souls of the people he has fixed and rehabilitated. This space in the corner will be filled, at some time in the not so distant future, we don’t know whose evil soul will be planted there but, it will be filled.

Nightmare turns his attention away from the window and walks back over to his chair. He places his mask back over his head and sits back in the chair adjusting the straps on the back. He then closes his eyes forcing himself to drift off into the nightmare of his next victim.

It is time for Work.
