We open back up once again on Melissa Aki’s couch. Her eyes are more focused now though we can tell she has been crying again. She carries on vaping and sees the red light on the camera blink.]
Maki: Okay so as I have accidentally turned the camera on so let’s get to it. I am on my own now as we go through this portion of it. I have texted Han but she hasn’t responded. C’est la vie. We spoke about Hannah saving me. So I woke up in the hospital bed, I had an IV drip in my arm, blinking machines making ridiculous noises. The doctor had come to see me apparently and was okay with how I was going. I was told by Hannah’s lawyer later that day I would need to prove I was in counselling as apparently trying to kill yourself is a crime!
Anyway, one night while I was there, I was awake and uncomfortable in that shitty bed, The lights started to flicker, I even saw my drip come out of my arm and swirl around in front of me. I found this quite scary to be honest. Then I felt my gown get ripped off my body. I was petrified Tommy was here somehow and I couldn’t see him. My voice had gone as I tried to scream. The Darkness descended. The room was pitch black and I couldn’t see a thing in front of me.
I should have known then who it was. All of a sudden I felt a claw mark from the top of my right breast to my nipple on my left breast. Again I tried to scream and I couldn’t, I felt more scratches, but they felt so deep I thought I was in the bath again trying to kill myself.
I lifted the blanket and saw something written on my leg and my stomach. I hobbled, with one good foot, to the mirror on the wall, aghast at the bandages on my arms. Then saw, written backwards, which I could see clearly in the mirror, in my own blood, “Please. Don’t. Die.”
To say I was horrified was an understatement but I knew she was calling me. She wanted me to live because she needed to live inside me, she needed to take me over and possess me and she couldn’t do that if I died. You’re probably thinking to yourselves, “This chick is crazy!” Perhaps I am but The Demoness was my saviour. Hannah is the real saviour but The Demoness is the one who brought me back to being me.
She goes off camera and comes back holding a glass and clinks it.
Maki: Rum and coke. So this was frequent over the six months I took out from wrestling. The official reason was two broken ankles. In fact I did break one of my ankles as the paramedics took me out of the ambulance, my foot bent right over and there was an audible crack or so I am told. So that helped me to be given the time to ease back in to wrestling, despite being told to quit wrestling all together.
I saw a shrink three times a week in Boston as well. Life was getting easier, a few male friends including Brett managed to hug me and I didn’t freak out. I realised that the issue remained that I let Tommy do that to me, I didn’t end it but he is not worth me losing my life over. If I had died that scumbag would have won!
She sips her rum and coke as her mind wanders to all the events that had transpired, she looks sad and then focused again
Maki: Over the next few months I became physically and mentally stronger. I started to work out again, I started to train. My ankle was almost ready as well. The curious thing was that without thinking I changed my look in training. I had modified my red and black gear and my hair was the same but I had started writing Please don’t die on my legs and torso. Was this an ode to The Demoness who had now let me know her name was Daniela? Maybe it was to get in the head of an opponent?
I had never worn Korean warrior make up to the ring but strangely I did now with the black lipstick, the red bloody tongue, marks all over my face in pen. Was it Daniela who made me change my entire look?
She sips some more Rum and coke and smiles to herself. Daniela was a part of her.
Maki: We became a symbiotic being. She was always there, feeding me, talking to me, loving me. I didn’t need anyone, all I needed was her. When she perceived a threat she took me over and when there was none she sunk back into the recesses of my being. My career was still at a crossroads and one day, I looked into the mirror and there staring back at me was me but with dark sullen eyes, face paint applied but I didn’t even have mascara on so how could it be me? I ended up talking to her which went something like this:
“Okay so Daniela I am guessing this is you and you want something.”
Daniela: “Yes. I do. I want to be let out. “
Maki: “I thought you had the power to take over me when you wanted to”
Daniela:” I did once upon a time but now you are strong again your subconscious now controls me.”
Maki: “What if I didn’t want you to ever come out again?”
Daniela: “NO! This will not do. You need me just as much as I need your mortal vessel. We chose you!“
Maki: “How so?”
Daniela: “Without me you are weak and pathetic. You can fight but in the end you will lose. It is I who is the winner here. You will just be a pathetic mess that tries to kill herself because some mortal human hurt you. I make you stand up. I make you fight until the end and I am the one, when you are lifeless on the ground that brings you back to life.”
Maki: ”So its all you and nothing to do with me. Fine. Whatever you think. What if I exorcised you? What would you do then? “ I asked and she responded in a cackle.
Daniela: “You would never do that. You are not religious, you don’t care about anyone but yourself. As I said you need me. I am disgusted by your apparent fighting, you are stuck in a rut and need to leave. I want to leave. Give me something better and stronger to sink my teeth into. Give me fire!”
Maki: “Leave? But it’s my home, its where I grew up. I became the wrestler I am today because of it. Suddenly floating in the air was a few pieces of paper stapled together and they fell at my feet. I read it and looked up at a smirking Daniela. It was multiple contract offers. “
Daniela: “SIGN!!!!! I need fresh souls! Persephone is a real task master for souls.”
[Melissa coughs, taken aback by all these contract offers for her. It is insane to think people believed in her talent this much.
Maki: I couldn’t quite keep up that voice and it appears she is dormant right now as I cannot summon her. So we are almost up to the present date. It’s late and I am tired. We will do the final part in the morning. I love you all and thanks for watching
