*The scene opens with Kunk and Belle alone in a room that is very brightly illuminated. The room almost seems to be made of light since everything in there is painted white.*
Belle: So....., tell me what you want to tell me. What is this crap all about? Illusion, freedom, lies, escape? I mean I saw that stupid interview you had with Hugh Jass, and I don't know what the hell you were talking about! I don't really even care it's just..
Kunk: No no no! You HAVE to care! This concerns you most of all! Let me try and explain: When I said that I'm the only being in the universe, it wasn't quite true. What's closer to the truth is that you and I are really the only two beings that exist in OUR universe. You see Belle, we exist alone, inside a mind.
Belle: what? "our" universe? a mind?
Kunk: Yes, there are multiple universes: infinite other realities! Ours is merely an infintesimal drop in an ocean which itself is a miniscule drop in another ocean infinitely larger than itself, and so on and so on.... ad infinitum!
Belle: But what do you mean we're alone? What about everyone else walking around?
Kunk: That's exactly the truth that I've discovered! You see Belle, just like drops of water, our universe can interact with others. From what I've observed of our reality, its clear to me that everyone exists seperately, in different minds, and yet at the same time we're all able to interact and coexist together. It was quite puzzling at first, since all of the evidence led to this conclusion and yet I couldn't understand how it could be so! But it IS so! There's no other explanation! This must be a world created by many minds, and is therefore a point at which many worlds merge into one.
Belle: Why do you say we exist in minds?! I'm so confused!!
Kunk: Well why do you automatically assume that you exist independent of a mind? How do you know that you're not just some creation: some work of art, created for mere entertainment from the mind of some god. Or maybe not even a god..... What if we're all just the imaginings of a bunch of ordinary people, and brought together in a fake world? How do we know we're not real?
Belle is dumbfounded. Kunk continues
Kunk: But you are right, there is no way for us to know any specifics of whatever exists outside our reality, but we can, to a certain degree, come to understand the nature of OUR existence in itself, which is why I believe everything I just said to be true.
Belle: And how are you able to do that? What are those observations you mentioned?!
Kunk: YOu must have noticed it by now haven't you? That this world we live in doesn't quite seem right? How sometimes we speak a certain way, and yet at other times we speak totally differently as if someone else is speaking for us, which feels natural, and yet wrong all at the same time? Haven't you noticed how our abilities differ in relation to the other wrestlers with each passing year? Its as if we don't grow stronger and build off of the previous year, but rather start anew around the same month each and every year? Don't you ever wonder why long periods of time are missing from your memory? How very little specific memories you actually have!!! Think about it Belle! right now! do you remember what you had for breakfast? Or what color your bed sheets were last night! or where you even slept for that matter?
Belle looks at him incredulously as if about to give him a "duh" when she stops with a blank mind, unable to answer
Kunk: No. I can't either. But most times I don't miss such memories. As if all that matters is what's happening now, What I'm saying NOW. What I'm "supposed" to "remember" right now! And that's led me to believe that I have no real past. I have no real "moment to moment" time! I only exist in little spurts of "NOW"! You see Belle it's all a farce!!! It's all a lie! .... but you and I are going to break free of it....... at War of the Worlds!!
*The cameras go BLACK*
OOC: I didn't come up with this myself lol, I stole the idea for this storyline from a bunch of different sources - most notable a great novel called Sophie's World, where the characters in the book realize they're characters in a book, and try to escape. But I also took from the matrix, from the movie cool world, from the movie dark city, and form the dark tower books by steven king. It's only original in so far as I applied it to ocw and kunk and Belle. But its a pretty neat idea : )
