o111; video/transcription | facing the facts
[ The video feed is shaky at first, blocked by something, and there's the sound of talking-- whispers that the device doesn't catch, but is ready to transcribe. A few moments later, the sound of footsteps retreating, and then the obstruction over the feed is removed.
Megumi is on the ground, her clothes and skin stained with dark splotches that resemble bruises, dirt and faint traces of blood, and her hair is tied back in haphazard braids tying her hair together at the ends. She's attempting to sit up, and doing well for her condition which isn't good at all. It's obvious she's been beaten severely, and she's observing her hands, which look like they've suffered the worst of it whatever abuse was. There's a faint, very weak glow over her fingers, which fades out every few seconds, and she's grimacing as she pushes herself up against a nearby wall, seemingly talking to someone other than at the network device. ]
Doesn't this look familiar...
[ Despite her condition, she's managing to talk well enough, looking irritated more than frightened, and she backs up when a figure steps into view, moving her arm over her waist as she looks up at whoever it is. She's obviously in pain, but hiding it well enough. The voices are clearer now, despite the view being obstructed. ]
Still talking after all of that? Looks like you haven't learnt anything in all your time here.
I'm sorry if-- [ Coughing ] Your charming City has stopped surprising me for things like this.
[ And no sooner have the words been said that she's slapped to the ground, and a second figure comes up to step on her hands, causing her to hold her breath as she trembles in pain, but doesn't make a sound. ]
Like a fish out of water without your powers, aren't you?
G-Ghhn...!
What are you holding back for? You can't hide it forever.
Won't... become... that thing...
[ The first figure steps away, to reveal the large view of its form advancing on her and lifting her by her hair, while the second steps off her hands and out of view. She's got her eyes tightly shut, and the view shifts as the device is lifted up, angled awkwardly and half-concealing what's going on-- Megumi is struggling to breathe, almost completely lifted off the ground, toes just about touching the surface. ]
Didn't stop you from doing it when it mattered to you, did it?
She-- left me for dead--!!
Denying it isn't going to change what you did, witch.
Preparations are complete.
[ And when the third voice comes in, she's immediately dropped to the ground at the guard's feet, coughing as the one who had been holding her gathers her hair in his monstrous hands. She looks up-- and suddenly looks terrified ]
You can't--
[ There's the sound of laughter, as the sharp sound of metal sliding out against something sharp can be heard, and then the third figure comes into view, while Megumi is forced to the ground, on her knees, hair held up and being untied roughly, and then clutched in the hands of the being holding the weapon she dreaded seeing. The device is now moved to the ground as the mocking continues, but amidst the sounds, she still manages to cry out as she tries to push herself free. ]
NO!!
[ She's not able to fight back, now being held by her arms as she's made to kneel, seemingly muttering something repeatedly under her breath, and then she releases a gasp as a clear liquid substance is suddenly poured over her hair, splashing over them until they're completely soaked from below her neck and down.
She goes extremely still-- and then she begins writhing as though in pain, clearly biting back her screams and as the figure holding the device steps back, her hair and arms are released, causing her to crumple on the ground. Her hands are grabbing at her head, clutching the strands and the three figures begin to circle around her, standing and watching--
As her long hair begins to dissolve, little by little from the ends, beginning to burn off into toxic smoke, and she whimpers, clearly in a lot of pain-- and when the toxins soaking her hair begin to reach her upper back, she's cursing but still not screaming, until she hisses her next words. ]
I never wanted it to end like that!! It wouldn't-- have happened-- if it weren't for her--!!
Still blaming your victim for your mistake...
We can leave you alone with your thoughts until you understand, witch. Don't think this is the end.
[ And with that, the three figures turn and leave, and the next seen image of Megumi for a split moment is her with her skin turning a shade of green, and as she lifts her head, her eyes growing red and expression demonic, before she passes out on the ground, her hair stopping in its burning and her form seemingly returning to normal as she collapses on the ground, blood trickling down the sides of her face. ]
[ Feed cut ]
[ And after an hour, the feed resumes, closer now. Megumi's hair is burnt off to just below her neck, and she's surrounded by a faint white glow as her body attempts to heal itself, the blood on her skin slowly disintegrating. Her clothes are an even worse mess, as she sits back up against the wall she'd begun at, and looking out the bars, trying to catch her breath as she holds herself, shaking. Then, she glances at the device, shaking her head as she reaches out with clearly injured fingers to shut the feed off. The voice feed continues, soft but a little more confident than she looked. ]
I refuse to repent like this.
Don't give up... please.
[ ooc; Prison plot! Guilty of murdering her grandmother in revenge (and whoever else may have died at the hands of S-Ko in the future), and tormenting her victim until they died, suffering. Think of the deaths in Ring, and you get an idea. :3; She allowed for S-Ko to be created, and have the only time she nearly loses control in public! Blink and miss it! The last time in the City was off-screen with Samara, derp. Her punishment is suffering with her hair-- her weakest point, poisoned and burnt as well as psychological punishment in the form of beating her until her bones are near breaking, a reminder of how she was left for dead and what caused her to commit the murder of her grandmother in the first place after nearly becoming suicidal. Her healing will be slow, but it's done on purpose to have her experience the pain of her crime.
Why yes, this is all very inspired from Ring 0, like that's anything new-- what with S-Ko being created out of the feelings of abandonment after her death. Yes, this may be a little darker than GG is, but really, suicide/abandonment is just as dark. ): She'll respond as she heals, and will need help escaping. Sob, I apologise in advance. SHE'LL GO ON A BREAK AFTER THIS AND BE HAPPY LATER. ): ]
