Abridged Too Far – Heavy Rain

Day: Wednesday
Time: 2:44am
Weather: The game’s called Heavy Rain, what do think the weather’s like?

Madison Paige awoke in the early hours of the morning. She couldn’t sleep due to insomnia. What better to do at 3 o’clock in the morning than to lean on various things whilst practicing your best catalogue pose? She got undressed and took a very short shower before getting dressed again.

She exited the bathroom and realised that the fridge door was open. She was a little freaked out but I would have been more worried about the two men wearing balaclavas who had broken in.

She closed the fridge door, turned around and was attacked by the intruders. They played a game of ‘Extreme Tag’ and chased her around the room with knives. They gave her enough time to react to their offense.

All of a sudden Madison awoke. It was a dream. She blamed it on the insomnia again. Personally I would have blamed it on the massive wedge of mature cheddar she consumed before going to bed.

Day: Wednesday
Time: 3:15pm
Weather: Shit

Madison pulled up to a motel on her motorbike and decides to get a room. There is no logical reason at this point as to why she wants a room in a motel seeing as she has a perfectly nice flat. Probably blame it on insomnia again.

MADISON: Damn insomnia.

See. I told you.

She got her room key and climbed the stairs to the last floor. As she walked toward her room she noticed an injured man clutching the railings with all his might. It was Ethan Mars.

She instinctively helped him into his room and began tending to his wounds. He was badly hurt but he wouldn’t say what from.

MADISON: I’m Madison. It’s nice to meet you. I have treated your wounds utilising the very well stocked medicine cabinet in the bathroom.

ETHAN: Thanks. If you could leave that would great.

MADISON: Oh, okay. Shouldn’t we at least talk and give off an air of sexual tension so that we can create a ‘will they, won’t they’ atmosphere in case anyone is watching?

ETHAN: No. Please leave.

Madison left Ethan’s room.

Day: Wednesday
Time: 9:06pm
Weather: I stopped paying attention

Madison walked passed Ethan’s motel room once again and she noticed that the door was ajar. She pushed it open and found Ethan on the floor unconscious with even more injuries. She didn’t question what the hell this man was getting up to.

She lifted Ethan off the floor and placed him on the bed. She took off his shirt and started using the very-well-stocked-for-a-motel-room-medicine-cabinet medicine cabinet to see to the latest set of wounds. She gently dabbed at the burns on his chest before pressing down really hard and scraping.

ETHAN: Owww!

MADISON: I’m sorry. I’ve sorted these wounds for you.

ETHAN: That’s kind of you. Now please leave.

MADISON: Don’t you even want to know who I am?

ETHAN: You’re Madison. You told me last time you did this. I have things to solve and ponder.

MADISON: What things?

ETHAN: 2 years ago I lost my eldest son and now my youngest son has been kidnapped by the Origami Killer and I have been given dangerous trials to complete in order to find him alive. There is a possibility that I’m the Origami Killer as I keep having blackouts and waking with an origami figure in my hand.

MADISON: I know how you feel. I suffer from insomnia. I believe in you, Ethan…you complete me.

Madison left Ethan’s room…again.

Day: Thursday
Time:  Hammer
Weather: Really wet

Madison was enjoying a ride on her motorcycle because it’s a sign that she’s a strong independent woman and it also allowed her to use her sexuality to her advantage. Anyway! She was travelling around when all of a sudden she spotted Ethan’s car outside a run-down derelict building.

She parked her bike and went inside. She had also spotted that the Police were also surrounding the building in the hope of catching him and branding him the Origami Killer.

Madison entered the building and found Ethan with his little finger missing. She didn’t even question what had happened to his little finger she just sat him down whilst she did a little redecorating before helping Ethan to escape out of a side window.

The pair of them ran out into the street and were instantly spotted by the Police. They might as well have saved all their energy and gone out the front door.

They evaded the cops by going down into the subway where the used the crowd for cover. The Police were still on their tails, however. They ran down onto the train platform and in a state of panic climbed down onto the tracks. Nutters! The gamble paid off as they escaped the Police and headed back to the motel.

Day: Thursday
Time: 1:32pm
Weather: You’re not even interested anymore, are you?

Madison had done a bit of research into who owned the building where Ethan was sent and subsequently chopped off his finger. It was in the name of a doctor who had been banned from practising medicine after being found selling prescription drugs and Haribo illegally. She paid him a visit.

The Doc had a large detached house and after climbing off her bike in exactly the same way she always does, she knocked his door.

He opened the door ever so slightly and Madison pretended to be a junkie in order to gain access. Her junkie impression consisted of talking and acting exactly the same as she normally does. Oscar worthy performance, that.

He let her in and immediately began perving her up.

DOC: What can I do you for?

MADISON: I need something to cure my insomnia.

DOC: How many boxes do you need?

MADISON: Shit loads. I blame everything on insomnia.

The Doc poured her a drink despite the fact that she didn’t want one.

  • To choose to drink: Extend your index finger, raise it to your eye and poke really hard and then go to page 7
  • To choose not to drink: Put your shoes on the wrong feet, dance and sing to The Proclaimers (any song of your choice but I’m guessing the favourite would be 500 Miles) and then go to page 9
