“Dreams of Nightmares”
by BAP

Fear Girl is laid out on a bed wrapped in a towel her hands placed one on top of the other on her chest. She slowly wakes up and sits up on the bed trying to remember where she is. She hears a scurrying sound like mice running around. She gets of the bed and searches the room but finds nothing. She sits on the edge of the bed with her legs crossed. She hears the scurrying sound again. Takes a quick look around finds nothing. Then she looks up. All she has time to say is “ Oh shi” as a spider like creature jumps down and attaches itself to her face. Fear Girl falls back on the bed struggling to get the creature off of her face. After a few minutes her hands limply fall away from the creature as she passes out and is motionless on the bed at the creatures mercy.

Fear Girl wakes up on the bed, no creature to be found. She gets up and finds she is not alone. “Dollmaker, I should have known you were behind this.” She address the other person in the room. “And what do you want this time?” she asks. “I want you to kill this nuisance Girl X for me. She trusts you; it shouldn’t be too difficult,” is the response she gets. She laughs and says “why would I do that.” Dollmaker responds “It will prevent you a lot of pain.” Then he pulls out one of hs dolls. Fear Girl of course does not remember her other encounters with Dollmaker. “Ooohhh what are you going to do – invite me to a dolly tea party?” she asks sarcastically. “Hardly,” Dollmaker tells her, then sticks a needle in the arm of the doll.

Fear Girl reacts to the pain in her arm. Dollmaker tells her that is just the beginning. Then a string is wrapped around the dolls neck and tightened. Fear Girl brings her hands to her throat – she tries to breathe but cannot. She finally passes out and collapses to the floor. Dollmaker removes the string from the doll then goes over and limp plays with her, like a doll, for a few moments. As she starts to wake up Dollmaker backs up. Fear Girl awakens and gets off the floor. Dollmaker asks her if she will kill Girl X. She defiantly says no. Dollmaker says fine, have it your way. A small plastic bag is pulled out and placed over the dolls head. The bag is held tight over the dolls face. Fear Girl brings her hands up to her mouth, not able to breath once again. As her eyes start to roll back her hands slowly fall away from her mouth and she passes out again. Dollmaker removes the plastic bag from the doll and once again plays with Fear Girl’s limp body. Dollmaker moves away from her and she starts to stir once more.

Fear Girl wakes up and gets off the floor and stands defiantly with her hands on her side. She asks Dollmaker if that’s the worst he can do. “Ohh no,” Dollmaker assures her, “There is always this.” Then sticks a pin deep into the doll right between the eyes. A blank expression comes over Fear Girl’s face and she stares forward and her hands fall to her side. Dollmaker waves a hand in front of her face. Fear Girl does not react. Dollmaker pushes the pin a little deeper. Fear Girl drops to her knees.

Dollmaker walks around Fear Girl. Stands in front of her, moves her head from side to side. Lifts her hand above her head and lets it drop a few times. Waves a hand in front of her face again – still no reaction. “One could get use to this,” Dollmaker tells her, “But you must make your final decision.” The pin is then pulled from the doll. Fear Girl blinks once then fully comes to. “What the hell was that?” she asks Dollmaker as she gets up. “Just a small demonstration of my power. Now you have to make your decision. Do you kill Girl X or do you take your chances with my creatures?” Dollmaker points a monitor that shows Fear Girl laying on the bed with one creature on her face and another that has climbed onto her and is poised to inject its venom into her vagina.

“Now before you make your decision, know this – one injection from my pets put you to sleep in seconds and makes you my living doll. Two injections at the same time will kill you,” Dollmaker tells her. Fear Girl ponders her decision for a moment and makes up her mind. Fear Girl makes her decision. She tells Dollmaker she will NEVER EVER join forces with him. “Very Well.” is his response. He snaps his fingers. (Fade to black) (Fade up from black) Fear Girl awakens on the bed, with the towel wrapped around her and the two creatures on her. One hand moves to try and remove the creature from her face while the other tries to remove the one from her body. She is not strong enough or fast enough to removal the creatures before they inject her with their deadly venom.

Fear Girl’s arm stretches straight out towards the edge of the bed as her back arches for a few moments as she reacts to the venom coursing through her body. Finally she collapses completely limp on the bed. The creatures remove themselves from Fear Girl’s body. The camera scans her body from foot to face. Focuses on her face that is blankly staring at the ceiling. After a few seconds her eyes very slowly close. After a few more seconds Fade to black.

Fade up on Fear Girl, back in the dream world in her traditional costume. She has her back to Dollmaker watching the monitor and not moving. Dollmaker grabs her shoulder and spins her around. Fear Girl turns around and faces him. Fear Girl’s face is completely blank, eyes glassed over. “I guess you made the wrong decision, didn’t you?” Dollmaker gloats. Fear Girl’s eyes then roll back and slowly close as she falls to the floor landing on her stomach. Dollmaker looks down on the fallen heroine.

Dollmaker kneels on the floor in front of Fear Girl. Lifts Fear Girl’s head up by the chin and examines her face for a moment. Lifts one eye lid then the other. Then says “One can never be too careful with you heroine types.” Dollmaker’s other hand is placed on top of Fear Girl’s head and it is given a quick twist. Fear Girl’s body spasms then her head is lowered to the ground and rested on her chin. “Thanks for the lovely evening. But I still think you made the wrong decision my dear.” Stands Fear Girl up. Gives Fear Girl a long kiss then she falls limply back in his arms. She dangles there for a few moments as the camera pans her body one last time.(Slow fade to black)
