The woman known as Artemis sits on the lap of her boyfriend and partner in crime, Cole Hunter, in the “Confessional” room of wherever they happen to be at present. This was a common set-up for them as Cole always made sure the group known as the Five, Ray Smyth, Rod Fielding, Robert Resnick, Craig Bush and Johnny Hull, always brought the proper chair and blue background along with a small television screen and the camera equipment required for this look to be used whether they were at home in New Orleans or on the move elsewhere. On her knees next them, sits the woman known publicly as Jade, a leash running from a collar around her neck to Artemis’s right hand. As the camera opens upon them, Cole is smirking as only he can while Artemis looks on hungrily from her perch on his lap and Jade looks dazed and stoned.
Cole: Intrusions from the outside world greet us, My Huntress.
Artemis: Oh good, I was hoping for some entertainment… what’s on the menu?
Cole can’t help but smirk even more.
Cole: Whatever desire breathes inside of you, simply speak it and it shall be so.
Artemis thinks on this for a second.
Artemis: I think it’s time we check in on subject number one see how her spiralling drug habit is holding up.
As she speaks of drugs her lip curls a little.
Cole: Subject matter objectionable, viewer discretion is… unavailable…
Artemis: You’re gonna wanna see this Freeman, great entertainment for sure.
Cole nods.
Cole: Miss J would tend to agree…
He nods to Jade before them and Artemis gets her to turn and look at the screen as well. The screen opens up to show what appears to be a dressing room. The camera show shows a mirror and then shows the shaking visage of Brittany Conway staring back from the glass.
Cole: Fascinating…
Artemis: What do we have her… Oh it’s Brittany, our most recent guest here. Ohh poor baby is trembling,she misses us so!
Cole can’t help but snicker.
Cole: That evening’s entertainment was a bit… intense…
On the screen, Brittany tries to apply her make-up for the evening’s activities, the camera catching a bit of writing on the door to tell anyone watching that this room is inside the Pleasure Dome in Las Vegas. Brittany sits her mascara down and shakes her head, seemingly unable to continue.
Artemis pouts.
Artemis: Aww, someone needs a hug.
With that, Jade stands up and holds out her arms.
Cole: An answer to a prayer is offered, My Huntress.
Artemis smiles before embracing the woman warmly.
Artemis: Would you like to sit with a better view my pet?
Jade nods and sits down in front of Artemis, who smiles and starts stroking her head like she is in fact her beloved pet.
Artemis: I always wanted a pet of my very own…
Artemis muses, smiling contentedly. On the screen, Brittany goes over to her duffle bag and frantically starts searching for something. She throws tennis shoes and socks, a couple of shirts and even dumps her purse out in search of her prey. Coming up empty, she steps back, shaking her head, clutching at her hair.
Brittany: No, no, no, no, NOOOOO!!!!
Artemis: Aww poor baby... can’t get your drug fix… guess you gotta suck it up and survive like the rest of us…
Cole nods, his amusement evident as Brittany starts searching for something else. Just as she finds her phone, a knock comes at the door. Brittany’s head snaps around, her sense of urgency immediately replaced with fear. She starts to step back when a voice calls out to her, one everyone watching would recognized, the voice of Warrick Craven.
Craven: Brittany, you decent in there?
Brittany stares at the door for a second and then sits her phone down.
Brittany: Yeah…. yeah, I’m good…
The door opens and Craven steps inside. Looking around the room, taking in the whole of the scene before him, he nods slowly, closing the door behind him.
Craven: It’s gonna be alright, they’re not here, Brit. They can’t hurt you right now.
Cole smirks.
Cole: Just keep telling yourself that…
Artemis smirks too.
Artemis: Silly deluded souls… I’m gonna enjoy breaking them, one by one…
Brittany moves closer to Craven, bursting into tears as he takes her into his arms.
Craven: Ssssh, it’s alright… it’s alright…
Brittany tries to say something back but she can’t find the words.
Craven: I know, it’s ok… if you don’t wanna go on tonight, no one will blame you…
Brittany: No… I… I need to…
Craven nods to her.
Craven: Ok…
Brittany steps back, showing how concerned Craven looks in the process.
Brittany: I… I need some…
Craven looks around the room.
Craven: Yeah…
He pauses and then glances back at the door.
Craven: I’ll take you to the nurse’s office and see what they recommend.
Cole almost laughs out loud.
Cole: A wondrous system of deception…
Artemis: Not as skilled as you, but good effort.
Brittany hugs Craven again and the two make their way out the door of the dressing room as that shot fades to black.
Cole: Perhaps opportunity will present itself in the future for more entertainment.
He glances down at Jade and nods to her.
Cole: The show must always… go on…
Artemis: Perhaps it will, do we have more we can offer, perhaps a different flavor?
Cole shrugs.
Cole: Baskin Robbins dreams of our selection…
Artemis thinks for a minute.
Artemis: Shall we view one with have check in on for a while? Our wayward “assassin.”
Cole presses another button and a shot from a camera phone comes on showing Jeszika Gautier sitting in a bar with a line of shots in front of her.
Artemis: No surprises there… but something missing… something white and…
She curls her lip. Cole nods to Jade.
Cole: Amazing restraint employed by Miss J.
Artemis: I’ve taught her well.
Cole nods.
Cole: A wondrous example of a working education system.
Artemis: Helps having a good teacher.
Cole smiles broadly.
Cole: You are a wondrous specimen…
On the screen, Jeszika downs every shot in succession and then nods as if ordering more.
Artemis: Ever the alcoholic... anyone would think her life really sucked. Is all that money and fame not enough for you, Jeszika?
Jeszika gets a few more and then surreptitiously snorts something off a thumbnail.
Cole: A new wrinkle is re-added…
Artemis sneers at what she sees.
Artemis: She makes me sick... She really does... women like her are the reason men like Apollo exist..
Cole nods.
Cole: A Craven Knight, a Freeman, Baron of any ethics…
Artemis: And the silver haired crack whore…
Jeszika starts drinking more, pausing every couple of minutes to lean down for her thumbnail again.
Artemis: Hope she ODS... maybe then she'll learn her lesson...
Cole frowns.
Cole: Knowledge would never be acquired in that manner.
Artemis: Knowledge? Of what?
Cole smirks cruelly.
Cole: Everything…
She pouts.
Artemis: Aww no fun, what good is a hunt with no death and carnage?
Cole: Patience…
Artemis: Not my forte, but I’ll try be patient for you, My Love.
Cole nods to the now blank screen and Jade.
Cole: Entertainment abounds…
Artemis nods as she directs Jade to move again so that they can all face the camera, Jade again kneeling so that Artemis can pet the young woman’s head.
After a few moments Artemis turns back to the camera.
Artemis: Oh and Freeman, you're probably wondering when I was going to respond to those glorious threats you threw my way... Mmm delicious pain.... bring it. I happen to love zip ties. They bite into my skin in such a delectable way....
She smirks, shivering at the thought then looks over at Cole a pleading look on her face.
Artemis: Do we have any zip ties left?
Cole snickers as if the answer should be obvious.
Cole: Of course.
Artemis grins.
Artemis: God... we'll make good use of them tonight... oh and Freeman, if you wanna ''snap me in half'' you'll have to catch me first big boy...
She giggles.
Artemis: Do you seriously think your threats scare me? Yes, I have experienced some pretty legit pain in my life. I was a gang leader’s girl, remember? Nothing you say or do could scare me the way he did and would you like to know what happened to him? My hammer and him had a good old time... his screams...
She licks her lips at the memory.
Artemis: Delicious pain... sweet pain, my friend...
She squirms a little in her seat.
Artemis: All this talk of pain is making me a little...
She almost purrs.
Artemis: Bring it, Freeman! Bring all your delicious pain... I will take it all and still be smiling at the other end.
Cole: Intrusions from the outside world greet us, My Huntress.
Artemis: Oh good, I was hoping for some entertainment… what’s on the menu?
Cole can’t help but smirk even more.
