Fear of the Monster

"What?"

The camera pans round to reveal Angelique covering her mouth with a hand after realising how loud her exclamation was. She is holding a list of the matches booked in for the up-coming main event. Her hands are shaking slightly and she looks even paler than usual. She takes a big breath and leans against the wall of the corridor she is stood in.

After a few moments Cameron steps into the frame and stands by Angelique. She has a concerned look on her face and reaches out, placing a hand on Angelique's shoulder.

Cameron: Angelique?! What's wrong?

Angelique looks up with what can only be described as pure fear on her face. She hands Cameron the list and Cameron reads the match-ups, when she gets to Angelique's she screws up her face in confusion.

Cameron: This can't be right! Hardkore Comley!?! I mean surely...

Angelique stares at Cameron. She is still leaning against the wall in an attempt to keep her on her feet. She opens her mouth to speak but struggles to find any words. After a minute she speaks, her voice is shaky and very quiet.

Angelique: I don't understand, he's going to destroy me.

All her confidence from winning her last match had suddenly vanished from her mind, her second match was going to be against Hardkore Cromley, a man who, win or lose, destroyed every male competitor he had faced in the ring. She could only imagine what he would do to her. She could not believe that of everyone in the RWF, her second match was going to be against that monster. She felt the sting of tears welling up in her eyes and did her best to blink them away. Cameron looked on sadly.

Cameron: You know..you're a lot fast than him. You could probably stay out of his grasp...

Angelique looked up, wiping away the few tears that had escaped and begun to roll down her cheeks.

Angelique: That's true. Maybe...

Angelique straightened up.

Angelique: Maybe I could tire him out, you know, make him have to keep moving.

Angelique smiled ever so slightly and then have Cameron a huge hug.

Angelique: Maybe I can even beat him! Thanks Cameron.
