A spotlight turns in in a dark room and shines on a beautiful girl with an eagle feather in her choppy brown hair, and ever-shifting eyes. She is wearing jeans and a T-shirt and she smiles around at the audience seated in front of her below the stage.

"Hello," Piper McLean says. "I'd just like to say a huge thank you to everybody who has supported me throughout this defence and who believes in me and doesn't hate me. You have no idea how good that makes me feel!"

Piper unrolls a piece of paper and clears her throat.

"So, on behalf of Puffy, I'd like to say a massive thank you to the people who reviewed and supported us on our quest for justice:

Piper rolls up the paper again and puts it on a side table before offering the audience members another brilliant smile. They burst into applause for the aforementioned reviewers.

"You all have no idea how good this made me feel, to know that there are people in the fandom who love me," she says. "Or, at least, don't think that I deserve all of the hate that I get. I'm cool with people not liking me – all the hate just makes me feel down sometimes.

"Be sure to keep tuning in!" Piper continues to the audience. "Because within the next few days, Puffy should be publishing her defence of Jason, which makes me so happy!" Piper beams. "Puffy and I would also like to wish everybody in the audience an amazing New Year and we hope that 2015 will be a great year for everybody! Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to find my boyfriend and try to force him into this while his guard is down because Christmas is over. I'm sure I'll succeed somehow."

Piper, a smirk on her face, stands up and leaves the stage, dragging a large, red-nosed reindeer costume with her. The audience members gulp and look at each other fearfully, suddenly very afraid for Jason Grace.
