Impromptu Massacre

Imagine: A Nightmare with Your Bias

It was never a challenge for you to create a breathtaking play at school so when a new production arrived, you eagerly participated as the co-director of the play. As you worked in the theater for the early preparations, you were handed the official poster of the play; with your bias in a popular Kpop band as the male protagonist. You chuckled, thinking of the person who made the poster is probably a KPop fan as well. With a last glance at the poster, you left the classroom for the lunch break.

 

The play is a silent one; meaning, all actions are done with no dialogue. You thought that it was an easy one since no lines are needed to be memorized and the actions are only meant for a dramatic concept. The story is all about two lovers in love, with the girl's brother jealous of the guy's closeness to his sister. To be able to secure his sister, the brother ordered the guy's brothers to torture and kill the guy by burying him alive. But as they bury him, a little fairy witnessed the act and perched on the brother's shoulder as he goes home. The fairy went to the girl's room to inform her about the whereabouts of her lover. She dug it up and takes the severed head of her lover home, bury it in a pot, in which the pot grew a jasmine plant. She water the pot with her tears everyday and tell it stories; making her brother confused, thinking that his sister has gone crazy. When the girl died, the brother dug up the pot and was horrified when he found the skull. With the fairy's curse, the brother (and the guy's brothers) suffered the same way like what they did to his sister's lover.

 

You blink at the plot for you find it a bit confusing but as you read the twelve page script while walking back home, you bumped into someone who is taller than you. [You actually bumped to his chest so you could tell] As you look up, your mouth hang open as he stands in front of you in all his handsome glory. He looks at you with a puzzled look; indicating that he finds you weird. You could feel your cheeks burn immensely and you find yourself almost squealing in delight but you tried to ask him in Hangul since you are very most familiar of it. He answers accordingly and you've concluded that you're right: He's one of your bias in a popular band-- the leader to be exact.

Your eyes traveled down from his face down to his feet then back up again. When you did, he now wears his signature killer smile which made you blush in beat red. He laughs heartily and messes your short hair.

 

"You're cute. I've never seen a fan who blushes as red as you." he stated.

"E-Ehehehe.... T-Thank you for the compliment." you stutter.

"Oh? Hey it's ___________!! Ya leader-nim!"

"Leader hyung!! Ppali! We're going to miss our practice!"

 

You looked over the horizon to where the voices are coming from. As you set your gaze on it, you found the other members of the band waiting for your bias to come towards them. He responded with a "Nae!" before turning his attention back to you when he noticed the cover of the script that you are reading a while ago.

 

"Y-You--- How did you get that script?" he asks

"Oh this? I'm actually part of the staff team. I'm the co-director~" you chirped happily at him.

"Really? Aigooo so you were that girl they were talking about!" he squeals happily and cups your hands. "It's an honor working with you, _______. Please take care of us! Me and my group members are part of the cast. Too bad that most of us are playing the roles of the bad guys."

"Omo?! Jinjja?!" you grinned widely in delight. "O-Of course I will! We shall work together to get this done!"

"Kamsahamnida!" he bows after saying so. "Come on let me introduce you to my members. I bet we can also discuss about the play."

 

A squeal of delight escaped your lips as you follow your bias back to the practice room. At some point in time, you find yourself already finished with the preparations for the play but as you unconsciously manage the characters and the people around the theater hall, something unexpected happened. The leading lady for the play has gone missing. Everybody starts panicking as you gave orders to let them calm down while you think of a way on how to replace her in case she didn't show up in less than thirty minutes. All of a sudden, the group's maknae raises his hand to suggest something.

 

"Can you play her role instead? I mean, you are our co-director and director-nim isn't on the list since he's a guy."

"But why me? We still have many actors around the theater."

 

Your bias, who was watching with the other members, steps in the scene with his signature smile. He slings an arm around you which made you startled. even at this proximity, you still can't control your emotions; making your face blush beat red again. He bends low to your ear to whisper something.

 

"You know the script well so I know you could do it."

"Y-You think so?"

"I do think so. We all do. We trust in you, ____________"

 

You looked around and find that everybody wears determined gazes towards you. You fixed your gaze to your bias and gives him a nod; indicating your approval for the role so he and the other members led you to the dressing room; happy and excited to see your transformation as the leading lady for the role. You took the honor to drive them away as you dress all by yourself. It takes no less than twenty minutes to set your hair and your make-up skills isn't that bad as well. You admired yourself in the mirror, thinking about the wonderful performance that you are about to give. As you exit the dressing room, you felt something wet as you walk in front by one of the drawers in the hallway. (The dress you are wearing is only an inch below the knee.) The hallway was pretty dim because the performance is about to start so you call for a maintenance nearby to clean the wet area because it might cause some serious accident before walking away towards the backstage. The maintenance boy complied and with his mop, he began cleaning the mess but as he went out to keep his mop, he realized that it was bloody red. An intuition soon came to him.

 

Meanwhile, the play has already began. Your introductory scene as lovers with the band's main rapper [since he's the leading guy] has ended and it's now time for the torturing part. You stand watching beside the stage as the other members act their characters accordingly but one thing was off. You knew that there is no poisoning included in the scene but the maknae of the group made their main rapper drink something from a small bottle. You are not sure whether it is really for poison but you could see that your bias did a pretty good job in acting. They all threw him in a pit and ends the scene. You reappeared once again to retrieve his head after you learned of what happened. As you retrieve this, you mentally left a comment for the props is almost realistic. Finally, the play was about to end. You act dying in your deathbed as the fairy [who was the group's leader] whispers nice things to you. Once you close your eyes, the brothers all came in the stage to get themselves punished. The proposed action for the last scene is that they would act like they were being suffocated then fall dead. You knew it was a silent play but for some unknown reasons, you could hear their groans and moans but you didn't bat an eye. When you heard the applause, that's the only time you rose up from the bed but as you sit up to face the crowd, something thick embraces your neck. Before you could even protest, the noose was pulled hard, making you suspended in the air and wriggle in pain as it tightens around your neck. With your last wave of conscience, you saw the dismembered corpses of the group in the blood-stained stage; with the casket where the squinty rapper was open and his head missing. In the center, you could see your bias waving at the audience before glancing  up at you. He smirked devilishly at you and mouthed something which made you shiver in fear as you breath your last chain of life.

 

I WISH YOU HELL, _________.


ANOTHER POV

 

The play was silent in nature but for some unknown reason, when the ending was near, the other characters started groaning in pain. Even before that, a yelp was faintly heard by my ears. Where did it came from? I thought that it wan only a fellow audience of mine so I didn't mind it. But as the ending came, the fairy was holding a thin sword. That's funny. I thought fairies have magic. But then again, this could only be a representation of his powers.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

but I was wrong. The man playing the fairy began slashing the throats of the other characters. I thought it was a fake but as I heard the two groan and writhe in pain, I knew that this was something else. When he was finished, he started poking the tip to each of the lying person's chest; like checking each of them if they are still alive. Before we give the last applause, a series of sharp blades rises from the stage, piercing all bodies and slashing them in pieces. We can't do a thing but to give an applause as the blood drips down of the stage. The girl must've heard our applause so she sat up but a noose embraces her neck all of a sudden. I didn't know where it came from but a signal from the fairy man and the girl was suspended in the air in less than a second. Goodness gracious. I thought that it was scripted-- that everything is all part of the act. But as i stare at the fairy man, I know well that what he did was impromptu; probably to try something new. Or merely just for fun; I do not know. And I don't want to know.

 


Mianhe for the blurred narration. -,- I can't actually remember how it [the play] went but I really felt the noose in my neck... my mother said that I was actually holding my own neck. O.O

So the imagery and the creepiness was super creepy. Like a stranger's finger's tickling your back creepy. /shudders/
But I couldn't help but feel like the story didn't really have suspense or the horror feeling to it. It was more that the actual events, not the writing that made it creepy. I would encourage you to use varying sentence structure to help elicit more feeling from the writing. :)
Also the use of "you" was overused. Like in some instances "you" could have been replaced. This can also occur if you add more variations of sentences.
In general, I had to read some sentences twice because the grammar did interrupt my understanding of the text. Its ok when the grammar is lacking, but not bad enough to understand what is written. But once it becomes difficult to understand the actual writing, like yours is, improving grammar is really recommended.
The biases seemed oddly specific...? For an imagine story, that is... I wasn't really able to relate to a lot of them. I think I could only find one I could name, so improving on making it intriguing without making it specific is a must.
Because the imagery from the story was from a real nightmare, It's no surprise that it could have made a person squirm by its creepiness.
So I'll applaud you on being able to describe the nightmare as thoroughly as you did, if anything.
In conclusion, I feel if you improved on your grammar and use of varying sentences you would see a lot of improvement. In addition, future imagine stories should be less specified, so a more broad audience can relate to it! :)
I hope this helps! :)
