Extreme Impact: Scene 7

Scene 7: Meanwhile, back somewhere on the island of Kyoto, Japan at around 13:50 p.m, a solo, 3-sibling family home is having family game day . As a calm and collected atmosphere such as the Yakami residence, Kyeon, Heather and Natalie has all learned to hold it down together & stay as what surprisingly many would call 'A Good Family'. "So, in History class today," Natalie begins, "there was this seminar about Nobunaga Oda. You know the 'Great Unifier' right? And the professor was talking about how he acquired that title over during his role, y'know. Cuz he was like this Samurai, faught for equality through the entirety of Japan, but he was also a bit of a swinger, y'know? And like-"

"Alright, look," Heather interrupts. "I just wanna ask right now: Is there a way to some good end result of this story?" "I'm getting to it, Im getting there." she continues. "Anyway, I sit there in class and think 'Hmmm. Swinger huh? Maybe I should explore what I've been thinking more about lately after hitting puberty?' So then I glance over at Tanuka on the far left of me…" "Oh lord," inputs Kyeon, as he rolls his eyes. "I can already see where this is going." "Quiet you!", Natalie yells then continues. "And um… alright. I believe I've said too much already…" Awkwardly, she starts speaking bashfully, tilts her head down into her game board and starts to slowly reach for the gaming pieces.

An awkward silence fills the room for a couple of seconds, with Kyeon looking at her embellished in her own self-pity, and lays a hand on her shoulder. "Hey, hey. Its OK sis." he says. "I think it's alright to think that way. It's all brand new to you., I get it. I still remember my first crush like it was yesterday." "Aha," Heather inverts for a joke. "Junko Jennie, right? Oh yes, she already knows about her… plus her little 'situation'." "DAMMIT Heather!" says Ky. "You SWORE to me you wouldn't leak word about her yet!!!" "No," Heather responds correctingly. "I swore I wouldn't tell her that around her school. There's a difference."

"WHAT THE FUCK KINDA DIFFERENCE IS THAT!?!? YOU STILL TOLD HER REGARDLESS!!!", he exasperates. "It's the type of DIFFERENCE that's gonna HELP her get to know about what these other young women HER age have to eventually LEARN from!", strikes back Heather. " By WHAT exactly! Breaking discreet promises!?!?" "Yes," they both carry on. "A promise that eventually is gonna peer into some limelight sooner or later." "OH yeah, sure! Way to turn an entire peaceful family gathering into some sort of bickery, SFA (Secret Feminist Arbitration). And at what cost!? Because I'm not too sure about some random overrated, societal sellout that no one might like again."

"Ky," Heather adds. "she's wise enough to make friends and keep them as she pleases for as God knows how long. IS THAT THE TYPE OF 'ARBITRATION' YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT !?!?" "Look here, all I'm trying to say-" right before Kyeon could get another few words in, Natalie cuts them both off, with great anger. "THAT'S THE FUCK ENOUGH!!!!" Storming into the argument, all three of them freeze abruptly quiet at the leisure table for a few seconds. Before getting up and walking to the living area in front of the TV while strewing the game die away from her, Natalie says this. "...Mom & Dad… would NOT EVER HAVE WANTED THIS!!..."

"Nat… nat I-" Kyeon says in a shameful tone. All of them still awkwardly dead silent without eye contact, Heather gets up from the table to console her little sister, with no avail to success. "Ill… put the board away," says Kyeon, as the scene fades out.
