I got emotional again thinking about how much of a tearjerker my story is going to be, and I showed my story to Sally - she'd show it to Fiona at the library and her daughter's husband Johnny. Come back, Nothing...
The truth is revealed: Nothing isn't Kyoga, I am! My belief in God made this story possible, and I hope Sally has shown my story to Fiona at the library. Also, if only I could make my own emotional Youtube animations.
The spirit of the moon, Nothing, guides me through the past of the such terms we refer to who we are in our lives to get a better understanding of who I was.
CLOSE-UP of a lion's paws walking across the grass.
A glowing white land with lots of men, women and children, which sadly died, wearing white hoods and clothing and playing, chatting, laughing and running about.
The lion from earlier approaches the someone who's crying, though we don't see her.
Nothing and I sit in the white, glowing atmosphere and gaze at each other as blossom petals fall all around.
I lie in a heap of friends - Luke, Resus, Cleo, Luella, Six and Dixon - all fast asleep.
Cave paintings of three cubs - Kyoga, Lite and Karabi - come to life, running and tumbling about.
Kyoga races up to a lioness who is presumably her mother and hugs her.
An image of a handprint with a scar on it is printed on the walls of the cave.)
ME: I'm sorry you guys got kicked out of CBBC...before I came along. I preferred it when you three were together.
CLEO: Are you saying I should go back to the girls again?
ME: No. You, Resus and Luke are a team. No, not just a team. A family! My family. The only stop motion survivors on this island, with Luella, Six and Dixon. CBBC's just abandoning everything just to show other animation styles. I think stop motion deserves a bit of respect.
LUKE: It's rare these days.
ME: What?
RESUS: Stop motion. It seems like us Scream Street kids are the only survivors.
ME: I wish they didn't use CGi these days. Take Paw Patrol for instance. Those pups never stand a chance. I hate that show.
LUKE/RESUS/CLEO: Yeah/Mmmhmm/So do I.
ME: I wish they stayed in the kennels. Or, I wish it could be stop motion.
LUKE: You know what? We'll plan to do that.
ME: Anything I want?
CLEO: Anything.
(Lightning flashes, and dark clouds roll in.)
RESUS: Aaah! Lightning!
LUKE: Don't be a wuss, Resus.
ME: Yes. Don't.
(It begins to rain, first as a light shower, then in a heavy shower.)
I got a bit emotional watching clips from The Promised Neverland to get inspiration for Where True Happiness Lies, like Kyoga reuniting with her mother. In Chapter 3, Cleo has to face a past she can't bare to shrug off.
