Scene One- The Tear
The scene starts outside of a locked locker room door. After Nina rabbit’s first match. But interestingly a VIP locker room. Really strange for a new wrestler.
“Fuck! It hurts!”
Another voice answers. "Well just hang on a sec, let me look..." A pause. "I'm not seeing any tears yet. Is it inside, you think?"
Nina answers “Maybe, do you think you could get up in there and check. Wouldn’t be the first time”
"I cooould..." There's hesitation in the tone, "But it'll probably hurt a lot worse? Up to you."
Nina answers, sounding like a kid showing there mom a bad cut. “How bad is it? Am I bleeding?”
"I don't see any blood... I do see a couple spots that look raw, like it stretched and almost tore?"
Nina gasps audibly “Is it still beautiful?”
A sigh. "Yes, don't worry, you can't tell unless you're up in there really looking, and I think it'll get better in a couple days. You want some ointment? Might help."
Nina giggles “Your really going to ointment my butt? I have the best girlfriend ever.”
"Well, like you said, it wouldn't be the first time." There's a long pause, filled with uncomfortable noises from Nina. Then, "Now. Any better?"
Nina can be heard hopping down from wherever she was sitting and walking can be heard. “Much better” Nina said as the audio is unable to pick up what she has said due to her going into a whisper.
End of Scene
Scene Two- Rock Wall
The scene starts at the North Clackamas Aquatic Park’s 29 foot rock wall. We see a guy getting Nina Rabbit strapped in and ready to try to climb the wall all while having a fear of heights. Meanwhile her sister Dakota standing at the bottom with a large thing of popcorn and a coke (looking like a typical tourist.) Nina is almost ready to have a panic attack.
“If I die, you better tell her I love her!”
Nina said nervously as she looked at Dakota, as her sister just smiles and gives her a thumbs up. Nina spoke again
“Is that all you can frickin’ do! Give me a thumbs up. I could die up here.”
Dakota giggled and spoke up
“Well better than dying of embarrassment if you lose to Latoya.”
“Is this stupid thing on?”
Nina said, trying to play with the go-pro camera attached to her helmet as she started to make her way towards anything that resembled any type of progress on the rock wall.
“Latoya Hixx, here we go. I could say that I wasn’t scared of this rock wall. But that would be a lie. I don’t like to lie, and I am not going to start just because of you. Am I scared of you? Hell to the no! Am I scared of losing to you? Not in the way you want me to be.”
Nina started to focus more and more on her promo as the climbing begins to happen as if she isn’t scared at all. Now that her mind is focused on her upcoming match.
“The way I am scared is what will happen to my name, my legacy; if I lose to you. Do you know how bad that would look? Sure losing to Mercedes, wasn’t the best option. At least, she is a respected name. Don’t get me wrong, I know you're a veteran in this business. That you have seen every trick in the book. Yet, you haven’t read the new edition of that book sweets.”
Nina looks down at Dakota and shouts
“How am I doing?”
Dakota playing on her phone at first doesn’t notice. Nina gests louder
“How am I doing!”
Dakota looks up and speaks
“You made me miss it! I was at the part where the cat jumps at the window and thinks it’s open.”
Nina rolls her eyes at her sister
“Stop watching F’n cat videos!”
“Why are you talking like a kid”
“Cause I don’t want to cuss around the kids here.”
Dakota responds
“Ohh you're like 10 feet. Keep going!”
Nina gets back to her promo
“If I was you Latoya, I guess this would be the part the backstage interviewer would find me and say “Hey Nina! What are you going to say about your match against Hixx?” But that isn’t me. I am out here living my best life. Girl, take advantage of the travel. Explore the sights, hear the sound, smell the fresh air. Cause we know that when it was Mercedes, I was against someone who has done something in the past. A scalp, that would have been a nice trophy to collect. This time not so much”
Nina looks back at Dakota
“How far?”
“20 feet, you are going to do it sis!”
“I feel like a lion playing around with a mouse.This trophy isn’t even going to be worth showing off to anyone. That is why, when I pounce on you. I am not dragging my kill back to show off,I’m going to leave you lying, that way the buzzards will have an easy meal. I gave it my all last week, and I have watched the film. I know the cracks in my game and I am going to fix. Then I’ve watched plenty of your film. Even the fluke win, last time out honey. Let’s be honest honey.I didn’t need to watch more than one match to know how to put old yeller down.”
Nina reaches the top of the wall and rings the bell and then repels back down the wall and is unstrapped. She looks around and sees dakota talking to some employee and walks up
“You missed it? Well you do have a poor attention span. Let’s gp.”
“Okie dokie”
Dakota says as they walk off and the scene ends
