[Sydney pushes the blankets to the side before sitting up on the edge of the bed. What little light is coming through the windows shines off her bare shoulders, as she leans forward to grab the shirt off the floor. She quickly throws the men’s button up shirt over her and then begins to button it up. The camera pans around when she finishes and catches her as she pushes some of the wild strands of her from her face.]
Sydney: I’m not scared of you Reeves. You’re big, mean, nasty and have no soul... I get it, you’re going to do everything in your power to break me. You want to intimidate me, you want to frighten me, you want to make me cry like a 10 year old who is getting beaten by her father all over again.... break me. crush me. destroy my will to fight... yes, I get it, and I understand...
[Simon turns over in the bed because of the racket, Sydney quickly turns her head to look at him but he’s still fast asleep. She smiles in his direction, which he obviously can’t see or acknowledge but she does so anyway. She then looks back into the camera when the cost is clear.]
Sydney: But no... I’m not scared. I’m never going to run and hide, I’m not going to put the mask over my face and pretend that I’m something not ever again. Nothing you can do, nothing she can do, there’s nothing anybody can do to make me become like that again. I’m not going to try and hide my head in the sand and act like it’s not happening. I’m not going to let people like you push me around any longer. Kelly is a power hungry, self serving jerk, and you’re just playing by her rules because you want to take the quick path to the top, you want to make a mark fast as possible, without having to put in any of the work at all.
That doesn’t scare me... an overweight nobody who has never amounted to anything in this company who is looking for his shot to skyrocket up the ranks in one quick move... no, that isn’t scary that’s sad. That’s pathetic, I don’t fear you... I feel sorry for you. I feel sorry for you because this is your only path, this is literally your only option. You’ve played all your hands, you’ve made all your moves and this is what you’re left with, being a hired gun for Kelly. Beating the hell out of a 100 pound girl just to try and become relevant again. Yeah, you’re so big and bad, you’re such an intimidating force.
How ironic is that... you’re going to be doing everything in your power to break me in half, you’re going to do whatever it takes to make Kelly happy and scare me into going running back into her arms because I want to be safe again, yet I’m going to feel nothing but pity... for you. I’m going to have my bones broken, my face beaten, and my blood pouring all because of you... you’ll be smiling at your destruction, happy about the carnage you did to the small little girl who stood in your way, feeling like you’ve done everything in your power to make your new boss happy... and I’m going to lay there and feel sorry for you.
The prey.. feeling sorry for the predator... *laughs*, that’s not “fear.”
[Sydney looks down at the floor, she closes her eyes and almost looks like she’s about to cry as the emotion runs through her, but she swallows a large gulp of air as if taking all those feelings running through her and to put them away out of mind. She looks back up, her eyes piercing the camera....]
Sydney: Do whatever you want to me... because I’m telling you right now... I will die before I give in to Kelly’s will again. I swear to God that I won’t ever give in, that I will never give up again... I saw what it was like to think that you had nothing left, that you had nothing to live for, that everything was futile and pointless. This is your only path I totally get that, to work for Kelly to be her playtoy and to do whatever she wants, but.... it’s not mine. It’s not for me.
I was shown a better way...
[She turns and looks at Simon laying there again, smiling yet again before turning back around and smiling to the camera this time. Her face turns intense as her piercing blue eyes glimmer in the faint light coming through the window curtains.]
Sydney: Yeah... I’m just a little girl... who has accomplished more in this company than most men three times her size. Just a little girl who wrestled Lance Ryan to a draw... just a little girl who after just six months in this company had become a bigger name than Mark Evil had been in twenty plus years of professional wrestling.
[Her smile grows wider and more cocky.]
Sydney: I’m just a little girl... who loves to save the mushroom kingdom from Bowser and his koopa army. I’m just a little girl... who loves to banish evil from the world using the master sword. I’m just a little girl... who fought the dark side influence on a distant planet. I’m just a little girl... one who will never go back to her ways of being used... abused, and played. I was given the opportunity for a better way, i was given a second chance to be myself, instead of what I thought what people wanted from me...
nothing you can do.... will ever take that from me.
Give me your worst, give me every trick in your playbook... go Evil on me... whatever you have to do... but I don’t have to play by those rules ever again.
Life is a game, Markus Reeves, and in case you’ve not noticed... I always end up with the high score.... and there’s not a damn thing you can do to change that, no matter how hard you try.
[Sydney stands up from the bed after finishing her sentence, however she is quickly pulled back down by Simon who grabs the end of his shirt that she’s wearing and pulls her back to the bed. He pulls up, and puts his arms around her before kissing her on the neck.]
Simon: Something wrong?
Sydney: Just a bad dream and an urge to go use the little girls room.
Simon: Oh... I thought you were trying to sneak out...
Sydney: Of course not... There’s not anywhere else I’d rather be right now.
[Sydney turns her head over her shoulder and right into Simon’s lips. We fade to black as the two embrace.]
Sydney: I’m not scared of you Reeves. You’re big, mean, nasty and have no soul... I get it, you’re going to do everything in your power to break me. You want to intimidate me, you want to frighten me, you want to make me cry like a 10 year old who is getting beaten by her father all over again.... break me. crush me. destroy my will to fight... yes, I get it, and I understand...
