[Script] Initial Draft, Scene 1

The following message is for Cheryl and Kaibs:
Can we set a day to collate the script for the 1st scene? We have to rehearse by next week right? So, can we like send each other our parts of the beginning, Scene 1, by Friday? Thks. I finished the part on the parents getting killed already and I shall do the others for fun. ^^ If I have time.

For everybody:
YY was saying that the orphan girl's name should be Esther, named after the main character in the movie "The Orphan" (the recent movie in cinemas now). But we all thought that Sophie was a better name right? 5 minutes ago, my sister brought up the name of Emily and I felt that the name was creepy enough. Like e.g. imagining someone saying "Hello. My name is Emily" with a freak smile on her face. What do you guys think?

[Characterization] Follower of Right Hand Man #2

Drama Characterization for Follower of Right Hand Man

Character: Follower of Right Hand Man #2

Name: Bush

Childhood + Family:

He was born into the mafia world. His family is mainly involved in the mafia business as well. His parents work as main followers under other mafia leaders, who are quite strong in the whole global mafia network. He has 2 older brothers who are, like him, a follower of right hand mans of mafia heads in other triads. The rest of his family works overseas due to the different mafia triads that they work for, only Bush stays in his country of birth, working for the Mafia Leader there.

Education:

His education was mainly inclined towards warfare and killing techniques. He was trained from a young age to kill ruthlessly when the condition called for it, wield weapons and operate a wide range of vehicles. Bush was also trained to think on his feet in the circumstance where police might conduct surprise raids on the mafia triad he was working in. However, he remains a kind-hearted soul despite all the violence that surrounds him and still goes out of his way to help people like little girls whose cats get stuck in trees frequently. Also, given a choice, he would not kill somebody unless ordered to.

Apart from learning purely military knowledge, his father also encouraged him to study a wide range of subjects. The general knowledge and facts that he acquired through this benefited him while getting chased by police in sudden crackdown raids, enabling him to slip away.

Social:

His friends were mainly those in drug rings and in other mafia groups. At a young age, he made close relationships with other followers like him who were trained specially by other mafia triads. He generally gets on very well with friends and followers under himself. He is usually a quiet person outside as he does not have a very show-off personality and prefers to keep his own problems to himself.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
He got the position of the follower of the right hand man due to the following facts:
1) He was very devoted to his job- serving and having the mafia leader's best interests at heart.
2) His family was known for being stringently loyal to the mafia underworld society
3) He proved his capability through a series of tests and beat many other followers for this position.
4) His training that began from a young age gave him an edge against other followers.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
