"Forgive
me Father, for I have sinned."
"My
dear child plese tell me your sins and the lord will forgive you."
"I
am afraid it is not that easy Father. For what I have done is unforgivable."
"Let
the lord be the judge of that."
[five
minutes earlier]
A
young woman with long red and white streaked hair enters St Mary's
Church. She is dressed in a long black dress with a white dress
jacket. She wears a hat that casts a shadow over her face. She opens
the door to the confessional and takes a seat. She wrings her hands
in anticipation, ocasionally wiping beads of persperation off her
forehead with a wtark white hankercheif. Finally the little window
opens and the preist's silouette appears.
"Forgive
me Father, for I have sinned"
"My
dear child plese tell me your sins and the lord will forgive you."
"I
am afraid it is not that easy Father. For what I have done is unforgivable."
"Let
the lord be the judge of that."
"I...umm
well I sort of injured someone badly."
"How
badly my daughter?"
"Bad
enough to put him in the grave."
"My
dear child. You do not need God's forgiveness. You need the
forgiveness of this man's family. You also must turn yourself in."
"I
cant do that. I made a mistake, one I do not intend on doing again
but, I can not turn myself in. I have a job. Cant I just say a few
hail marys? "
"I
am sorry child. Very sorry. Please do as I suggest and your sould
will be at rest. Go now."
The
woman removes her hat and bows her head. She leaves the confessional
and walks up to the alter. She kneels in front of it and performs the
sign of the cross.
"Lord,
I whole heartedly apologise for my brazen and stupidly misguided
actions. I shouldnt have killed that man but Jessica... sweet
Jessica. She has lured me in the wrong direction so many times it is
hard not to be like her. She is so adictive and beautiful and dark. I
do not blame my actions on her. I blame them on my weak sense of
self. I do not know who I am anymore. Please, please accept my
apology and forgive me. I cannot turn myself in however. But i can
make things right."
She
stands up and exits the church. Outside the sun is shining. She
looks up to the sky and someone from behind her wispers just loud
enough for her to hear.
Woman:
Hey Sam, isnt that Kiva from that DMX
show you watch?
Man:
Yes Tessa. It is. Matter of fact, she
has had only two matches and has lost both of them. Big waste of
money if you ask me.
Kiva
shoots them a quick glance and places her hat back on. She wanders
down the street keeping her eyes straight ahead of her.
[10
pm]
Kiva
is sitting indian style on the ground. It is imensely dark, clouds
cover the moon. Every now and then lightning flashes illuminating the
surroundings revealing tombstones everywhere. Some have been
desecrated, others left alone but unkept. Kiva sits in front of two
tombstones. They read "Theresa Boricuvia Mother, Wife and
beloved Daughter. Rest in piece." and her date of birth and
death. The other reads "Demitri Boricuvia. Husband, devoted
father and son. May you soul find hapiness." There are flowers
and little porcelain faeries in front of them. Kiva plucks at the
weeds peeking through the flowers unaware there is a camera on her.
She appears to be crying.
Kiva:
Mother, father. I miss you two so much.
Without you my life has been one mistake after another. Since moving
in with nanna I have been miserable. No one understands me. No one
except maybe Jessica. But I do not want to go back to what I used to
be, back to what she made me. I dont like who I am. I want to change
but how? I can only change by changing who I socialize with. Since
your deaths, I have dated boys and men but the wrong ones. I know
this now. I need to be with someone who can keep me in check. But
Jessica...Jessica makes me tingle. When I think of her, I feel like I
belong with her. But everytime I see Justin, I have such strong
feelings. Stronger than I have ever felt for any man. I have even
gone so far as to follow him on certain occasions. I dont know what
to do. I just dont...
Kiva
breaks down and starts crying uncontrollably. She finally stand sup
and walks away.
[10:41
pm]
Kiva,
now dressed in a pair of black pants with zippers on the bottom of
the legs and multiple chains and straps on them, and a black tee
shirt with a scrawny little boy on the front with the words "My
Kung Fu Is VERY Strong" written on it, walks into a small local
bar she had scoped out earlier in the day. She walks to the bar and
orders an ice cold Bud. She takes the bottle and walks to a table way
in the back. As she sits there drinking her beer she spots Justin,
Diana and Nathan walk in. She is unaware that Nathan had threatened
her earlier. She watches as they get mobbed with fans. She watches
them sign autographs and finally settle at a table close enough for
her to hear them. She listens to Diana's concerns and Justin's
obvious trust in Kiva's good side. She listens as Diana accuses Kiva
of stalking Justin at the theater. She shakes her head and wispers to herself.
Kiva:
I wanted to see that movie anyway. But
I was going to ask him to sit with me...but I chickened out. i wasnt stalking...
She
watches them drink and laugh and talk obviously having a good time.
Trying not to make a scene Kiva leaves. As she leaves, Nathan notices
her walking out. He excuses himself and follows her. She feels him
behind her and she turns around.
Kiva:
What do you want?
Nathan:
stay away from my friend. I dont know
what you were thinking coming down to the ring and interfering like
that but if you ever do it again so help me...
Kiva:
You'll do what? Justin has made it clear he doesnt want you to get
involved with his in ring activities. Hell he doesnt even want you at
ringside.
Nathan:
Thats because he wants to make it on his
own.
Kiva:
Its because he doesnt want to have to worry about your washed up
self. He is just being nice about it. Look, I didnt know you guys
were coming here. I just stopped in for a drink or two. I made some
mistakes that I am trying to fix. Ive got some shit to get straight
so if you dont mind, Im going to get going.
Nathan
grabs Kiva's arm.
Nathan:
Just stay away...
Justin
steps out of the bar just as Kiva yanks her arm from Nathan's grip
and turns away. She begins walking away so Justin wouldnt recognise her.
Justin:
Hey bro! What are you doing out here?
Who was that?
Nathan
walks back to the bar.
Nathan:
No one important. Next round's on you!
Justin:
Havent they all?
The
two of them laugh and head back to the table where Diana is waiting.
Meanwhile Kiva walks back to her hotel where she sets up a camera and
sits down on teh edge of the bed.
Kiva:
Well I lost again. I guess if there was
an award for a "Jobber of teh year" I would win it. I am
really starting to get sick of this losing. However, I dont know if I
can win here. I misjudged everyone here and I refuse to do so
anymore. My next opponent is Travis Nite. The Rising Star as he likes
to call himself and he very well may be. It seems lately that Travis
has no weakness, has no chance of losing. I dont know how or what I
will do but I plan on winning for once. I may be let down again, who
knows but its time I got mine.
I
really dont know where to begin with Travis. In his short time here
in DMX, he has accomplished alot. He overcame three others in an
amazing Xtreme Violent Deatmatch. He is obviously a one man wreaking
machine. It is fairly obvious I am going to have to get some much
needed trasining in to beat this monster. Its time to get serious it
seems. No more distractions. But Travis, just because I was beaten my
last two matches doesnt mean it was an easy win for either one of my
opponents. So dont you dare think otherwise you got it? I realy dont
have much to say at this moment. I am tired and sore and I need some
rest. Tomorrow I begin my training once again. Goodnight DMX.
With
that Kiva turns the camera off and undresses, slips under the covers
and sleeps restlessly.
