Katarina is seen entering her locker room after she was out commentating on Mayhem for Skylars match. she locks the door when she enters, peering around the room in a paranoid manner. RUbbing her arms trying to combat the chills. She takes a seat next to her friend Sophia.
Looking up from fiddling with her phone, Sophia watches Katarina lock the door and start pacing like an irritated cat before sitting by her. When silence continues, Sophia puts her phone aside and stares at her friend.
Sophia: "So spill. What's eatin' you?"
Katarinas feet are glued to the floor as she speaks
Katarina: Did you see the match? The one I commentated on?
Sophia: "Er...should I have?"
Katarina: HE was there Soph... The guy from the autograph signing... The guy I thought I saw last show...
She shakes her head
Katarina: He works here Soph... And he...
She shivers
Katarina: He kept looking at me, it was like he was... Performing just for me... He took Skylars body and arranged it like she was some clay model for him to mould... It was... creepy as hell... Thats the only waay I can think to put it... and it was all for me it seemed...
Sophia: "Wait, you mean that guy in the black suit? He's this stalker you've been on about?"
She almost laughs but the worry on Katarina's face keeps her from doing so.
Sophia: "...so does he like you or what?"
Katarina: I don't know! At the signing he just seemed like aa fan, except something in his stare... Scared the hell outta me... Then there was that text last week... I wonder if it was him? Like he somehow found my old poetry and decided to fuck with me by sending me lines from it...
Sophia: "C'mon now, Kat, how the hell could he do that? Ain't like you go posting it on the internet all the time or somethin', right?"
She nudges her friend, trying to get a smile out of her.
Sophia: "You worry too much. I bet he just digs redheads with cute dimples and freckles."
Katarina blushes and actually manages a small smile showing off those dimples.
Katarina: I hope your right... But you know I'm no good with that kind of thing... Not since...
She trails off, not wanting her memories to go back to that night.
Sophia: "Stop that."
Grasping Kat's chin, Sophia makes her friend look at her.
Sophia: "Happy thoughts. Or do I have to take you over my knee again?"
Not that she ever had, or would, but the goofiness of even mentioning things like that usually got Kat to break into giggles. And that was better than brooding.
Katarina smiles and freigns offence
Katarina: You wouldn't!
Before giggling.
Katarina: Ok fine, mind, happy thoughts... Lets forget that guy, and lets go get ice cream or something. I spied a place earlier up the road from here that may well still be open... but first, I'll go and let Sky and Craven know I'm off, so they don't expect me to commentate on his match too...
*******************************
Kat wanders off to find Craven and Skylar and is gone for quite some time. Probably to the point where Sophia may get worried and text her to find out if she was ok
Sophia: "I swear...where'd she get off to? Did someone drop a comic book or something?"
Katarina suddenly bursts into room, her head bandaged slightly, and she looks a little beat up.
Katarina: I'm sorry... That took longer than planned, we got jumped by the Children of Niphilim... They... They stopped Sky and Craven from helping me, and the crazy woman she beat me...
Well that was all Sophia needed to hear. She looked around and founda folding chair against the wall, grabbing it up and making for the door.
Sophia: "Yeah? Think I'll go say hello."\
Katarina puts a hand out to stop her
Katarina: Soph no... These people are dangerous...
Sophia: "They ain't seen nothing yet. You expect me to sit back and let 'em get away with hurtin' you?"
Of course, she gets a closer look when Kat stops her and sighs, dropping the chair. She pulls the young lady into her arms.
Sophia: "You're more important anyway..."
KAtarina smiles
Katarina: So... How about that ice cream... God I think I need it now... The biggest freaking Sundae I can get... With all the toppings...
Sophia: "If you put yourself in a chocolate coma I'm totally drawing on your face. Just sayin'."
Sophia: "And I'll totes claw up your damn couch."

Katarina: I don't doubt that at all
*****************************************************
A couple of night later we see the redhead figure of Katarina walking through a familar looking derelict building, the one from her childhood, the one where her life changed forever. But this time there's no adolescents hiding in the dark and this is clearly present day Katarina, not the Katarina from 5 years ago.
She wanders the halls admiring her surroundings, until she stops, getting the distinct feeling that she's being watched. She stops and looks around, trying to pinpoint the person, or persons, watching her. But see's nothing. She shaakes her head and turns around in time to see a man approaching her, not 10 meters away, She screams a little and starts backing away. It was him. Nathaniel!
In his hands was what looked like a pink silk scarf, and on his face is a look that Katarina can only describe as dangerous. She backs away from him until her back his a wall, but he only keeps approaching, that scarf held in his hands, that look sill onhis face. The dangerous glint in his eye, the scary smirk on his face.
Just as he reaches her, her eyes snap open and she sits up in bed, a scream escaping her lips, her arms failing in panic as she struggles to get a grip between reality and the dream world. It takes her a few moments to realize she was in her bed not still in the house.
Suddenly her door flies open to reveal a panic looking SOphia.
Sophia: You ok Kat? Dreams again?
Kat can only nod.
Sophia climbs on the bed and takes Katarina in her arms, simply holding her, kowing she can't make the dreams go away, but wanting to make her feel better none the less.
******************************************************
The next day Sophia is cleaning the kitchen when there's a knock on the door. She frowns then looks through the peep hole. Satisfied that she finds no threat on the other side of the door she unlocks it to reveal a courier man.
Courier: Package for Katarina O'Hara?
Sophia: Yep she lives here, I'll take it for her.
Courier: I must insist on handing it directly to her Miss, specific delivery orders... Sorry.
Sophia: Ok, I'll get her for you. wait here.
She wanders back into the appartment, losing the door behind her, leaving the courier man there. She finds Katarina in the spare room, doing her daily Yogalates workout.
KAtarina: Everything Ok Soph?
Sophia: You got mail... And apparently it needs to go into you're hands only... I'm not good enough to accept it.
Katarina: RAndom.
Sophia: Yeah tell me about it...
Katarina: Ok... Guess I better get it...
She gets up from the painful looking stretch she was doing and walks to the door. The courier hands her the package and takes his leave. Katarina walks back inside and places the package on the bench.
Sophia: Ohh I wonder what it is?
Katarina: WE're about to find out...
She rips open the packaging pulling out the small pink object from the bag. An opject that she quickly drops and backs away from, her eyes wide.
Katarina: No... It can't be...
Sophia looks concerned.
Sophia: What is it Kat?
Katarina: That scarf... Its the one from my dream last night... The one HE had in his hands...
Sophia's eyes go wide.
Sophia: How is that Possible?
Katarina: I... I don't know.. But I havent seen this scarf for a long time... I thought I lost it a few years ago...
Sophia: So how is it here now? How was it in you're dream?
Katarina: I... I don't know... I don't know anything anymore...
Sophia: Does it say on the package who its from?
Katarina shrugs before turning the package over. Written on the other side of the package is simply the words. "I can not help myself. His presence is so alluring."
Sophia: Again with that poem?
Katarina simply nods.
Katarina: I... I need to get back to my training...
She drops the package on the bench and hurries down the hall, back to the training room, leaving Sophia standing there.
Looking up from fiddling with her phone, Sophia watches Katarina lock the door and start pacing like an irritated cat before sitting by her. When silence continues, Sophia puts her phone aside and stares at her friend.
