Event
Thursday Night Takedown
The scene opens inside the flat early in the evening. Emi Yamamoto, already in her Hello Kitty pyjamas, is lounging on the couch, with Adventure Time on the television. She is not watching it however. Instead, she is on her phone, in the middle of a conversation with Taufik...
"For the last time Taufey, don't worry about it. I'm fine. I know what I'm doing..."
...
"I know I don't know who she is, that isn't going to stop me! That evil witch is gonna pay for everything she did to me!"
...
"Of course I haven't forgotten you silly billy! The Night Terrors right? Sounds like something my uncle used to have when he was trying to sleep..."
...
"Don't worry! You're forgetting... I used to be one half of the most dominant tag teams in MPW!!"
...
"Well I know we never held the titles, but that's besides the point..."
...
"Yeah I remember, you actually held one of those shiny belts. We're both awesome tag team wrestlers, so together, we're gonna be unstoppable!!"
...
"Scared? Ha! You know you're talking to Emi Yamamoto right? Those nightcrawlers don't scare me! I mean come on, who exactly are these guys? Humpty Dumpty and Severus Snape? They may have a scary name, but if they think that they're gonna make examples out of us, then they've got another thing coming! You know what that thing is?"
...
"A boot down their throats that's what!! They wanna be the best tag team in MPW? They've gotta get through two of the best tag team wrestlers in the world first! Heck, we're gonna be so good together, we could even win those shiny belts!!"
...
"Yeah I like the sound of that too!! Don't worry though, when we take care of those creeps, I'll sort that witch out personally! I know how to handle myself, but right now, let's just focus on working together and kicking some nightstalker butt!! Okay?"
...
"Okay! I'll see you in training in the morning then. Goodnight Taufey!!!"
With that said, she hangs up the phone. She slides it onto the small table by the couch before returning her attention to the television, at least until Kenji arrives.
"Who was that on the phone Emi?"
"Huh? You heard me on the phone?"
"Well, you have a pretty loud voice. They could hear you on the other side of the building..."
"I don't have a loud voice!!"
"Thanks for proving my point..."
"Hey!!"
Kenji smirks as he sees Emi pouting.
"I'm just kidding Emi! I presume you were talking to Taufik though right?"
"Yeah... Just talking about our next match together..."
"That's cool... You think you two can pull it off this week?"
"What do you mean?"
"Well I mean...these Night Terror guys...they seem pretty tough... Aren't you even a little bit nervous?"
Emi looks annoyed.
"Are you trying to ask me if I'm scared?"
"No I was just..."
Emi suddenly springs out of the chair, now with a look of determination.
"Listen Kenny, I've had the same thing from everyone else! People asking me if I'm scared about this whole scary lady thing, people asking me if I trust Taufey, people wondering when I'm gonna get back to my winning ways... Well I'm telling you right now, I'm not scared, I trust Taufey and this week I'm gonna beat those night time chumps!! I'm sick and tired of people doubting me! You even said so yourself, I'm just going through a rough patch right now, and losing is something that everybody has to deal with. Well I'm gonna deal with it this week when I kick those chumps and show everyone why they should stop doubting me and start treating me like a professional wrestler instead of a little scaredy cat!!"
"But I didn't say..."
"I know, but you were thinking it! And when I stick it to these nighty night guys this week, then I'm gonna kick some serious mask lady butt, and after that, I'm gonna go after one of those shiny belts!! Then we'll see who the scaredy baby really is..."
Kenji looks flabbergasted as Emi storms into her bedroom, slamming the door shut behind her.
"For the last time Taufey, don't worry about it. I'm fine. I know what I'm doing..."
...
"I know I don't know who she is, that isn't going to stop me! That evil witch is gonna pay for everything she did to me!"

Kenji looks flabbergasted as Emi storms into her bedroom, slamming the door shut behind her.
Later that night, Emi suddenly wakes up in the middle of the night. She throws the blanket off her bed and looks up, but is absolutely horrified when she realizes that she is no longer in her bedroom...
"Wait...what? Where am I?"
She looks around and discovers that she is lying in her bed, which is set in the middle of a dark empty cavern. The rocky surface is covered with a shade of crimson red, and where her bedroom door should be, in its place is tunnel that steers to the right, hiding the unknown. Emi is about to slide out of bed until...
"EEEEKK!!!"
She quickly scurries back onto her bed and hides under the blanket as a swarm of small spiders flood the cavern. All that can be heard is the hideous squeaking of the tiny creatures. Emi goes to take a peek, and upon the sight of the cavern floor entirely flooded by a carpet of black spiders, she quickly ducks back under the blanket, completely frozen in terror. She stays hidden, covering her ears and shivering under the blanket, until she suddenly hears a different sound enter the cavern. She looks up, and is relieved to see Taufik, wearing a pair of yellow Wellington boots, stomping his way into the cavern. He spots Emi's little face under the blanket and offers his hand.
"Come on Emi! Don't worry, I've got you!"
Without thinking and trying her best to keep looking up to the ceiling, she carefully throws herself into his arms. He manages to carry her out of the flooded area and further down the tunnel. The further they move down the tunnel, the less spiders can be seen, until finally, they were all gone. Emi jumps out of his arms and embraces him with a hug.
"Oh thank you thank you thank you thank you sooooo much for rescuing me Taufey!!!! I knew I could trust you!!!"
Taufik blushes slightly.
"It was nothing Emi. I told you before, even if you don't want me to, I will look after you..."
Before he can finish, a crack suddenly emerges beneath his feet. He pushes Emi out of the way and suddenly falls through the crack in the floor. Emi drops to her knees and tries to reach for him, but it's no use.
"NO!! TAUFEY!!!!!"
The crack continues to grow wider as the ceiling begins to crumble and fall apart. Emi tries to turn around but everything before her has already fallen apart. There is nowhere for her to go, she is stranded. The entire tunnel is falling apart, revealing a vacant space shrouded with piercing red clouds, with flashes of lightning seen from a distance. Emi continues to panic as everything around her begins to disappear, until all that was left is a small piece of the floor where she stood.
"Why is this happening? I wanna go home!!"
She is suddenly alerted by the sound of a thunderous voice that echoed around her. She looked around trying to find the source of the voice.
"Of course! The little baby wants to go home! How predictable..."
"Who said that? Show yourself!!"
Suddenly, far above her, a group of ominous clouds gathered and merged, taking the shape of two demonic faces in the red sky. They stare down at Emi, who looks completely hopeless.
"Foolish girl!!"
"You are in our Terrorworld now!!"
"Who are you?"
The two clouds give her an evil laugh.
"It matters not who we are. What matters now is that you are now a prisoner of your own nightmares!"
"You and your friend are trapped here, and you will never be able to escape from us!!"
Emi then spots Taufik in a distance. She notices that he is unconscious, and is drifting in the sky.
"You fiends!!!! Bring Taufey back right now!!!"
The two clouds chuckle.
"Of course..."
The floor suddenly disappears beneath her feet. Emi covers her eyes until she realizes that she isn't falling, but is instead drifting in the air, just like Taufik. She struggles to cope at first, being nervous of the tremendous distance beneath her, but she eventually gets used to it and even manages to learn how to guide herself through the air, as if she was floating without gravity.
"Go ahead, go to your friend..."
Emi looks a little reluctant, suspecting something devious in the works, but after deciding to rescue her friend, she tries to guide herself towards him. She comes close, until suddenly, a massive swarm of warped moths form a cloud and surround him. Emi immediately succumbs to a state of panic and tries to drift her way out of their path.
"...if you can get to him that is..."
The two clouds laugh hysterically as Emi struggles to catch her breath again. Completely overwhelmed by her fears, she begins to cry.
"Why...why are you doing this to me?"
"Face it, little girl. There is nothing you can do. All those losses that you've endured recently, all of those incidents that have happened to you... They are a sign. You clearly don't belong in this world. You are completely hopeless. You've allowed all of your fears to consume you, and now you are in the mercy of your own nightmares. The only thing you can do now is give up. Give yourself up, and choose a new path to follow, one that you are able to handle, one where you belong..."
"Yes, you are clearly in way over your head. You don't belong here. You cannot overcome your fears, so why do you even bother to try? Give in little baby, that is the only way..."
Emi looks like she is about to cave in, and admit that she cannot handle herself, until suddenly, something deep down sparks. Realizing a newfound spirit inside her, she wipes the tears from her eyes, looks up at the two cloud faces and gives them a stern look.
"No..."
The expression on their faces suddenly change.
"I can't take this anymore. I'm seriously sick and tired of being pushed around and being told that I don't belong. Everyone keeps doubting me, thinking that I can't cope, but I'm telling you right now that I can too cope! In fact, I can do more than cope! I can overcome things too! I may be going through a rough patch right now, but I will overcome it. I may be on a losing streak right now, but I will overcome it. The odds might be against me with this freaky scary lady who hates me, but I will overcome it and I will make her pay for the things she did to me. And you know what else? I'm gonna make you jerks stop doubting me, and I'm gonna overcome my fears right now!!"
"You what mate?"
"Don't worry Taufey, I'm gonna save you right now!!"
With that said, she suddenly flies towards the swarm of moths, and after letting out a loud gulp and closing her eyes, she darts through the swarm on one side, and blasts through on the other side, with Taufik draped across her shoulder. The two cloud faces scream in horror. Emi turns around and watches as they viciously twist and twirl into nothingness. Huge cracks of lightning suddenly fill the sky, and before she can do anything else, she suddenly passes out.
"Wait...what? Where am I?"
She looks around and discovers that she is lying in her bed, which is set in the middle of a dark empty cavern. The rocky surface is covered with a shade of crimson red, and where her bedroom door should be, in its place is tunnel that steers to the right, hiding the unknown.

Huge cracks of lightning suddenly fill the sky, and before she can do anything else, she suddenly passes out.
Emi suddenly wakes up back in her bed, sweating bullets. She sits up and throws the blanket off her again, this time realizing that she is back her bedroom. She glances out of the window and notices the daylight. She lies back in her bed and lets out a loud sigh of relief. She rests her hand across her forehead and tries to giggles to herself.
"Wow...it was all just a dream..."
Just a few moments later, she hears Kenji on the other side of her bedroom door.
"Emi! Breakfast's ready!"
Emi smiles to herself as she pulls herself out of bed. She whispers to herself before heading out of the room for breakfast.
"Don't worry Taufey...whatever terror lays ahead...we will overcome them."
