[CHAT GPT AI QUERY]
Write me a play about a pop star who one day meets a fan in her dressing room who begged to play a song for the besotted love of her life, the star reluctantly and grizzlingly accepted, the fan played and the star quickly showed her to the door with a sour "so long". They began to reiki to each other and the fan stumbled upon a record exec in Nashville and began to become famous for her music playing in the locality then the region then became a national star, but the reiki between the star and her fan, now risen to star became destructive and harassing, the star became mentally ill and retired from performing and the fan went on to be an international star, but one of her fans, ambushed her in Austin Texas, shots were traded and she died in a pool of blood on the tarmac. The original star got better and conducted a return tour and was back at the top of the pops.

Act 1: The Dressing Room Encounter
(Luna Starr’s dressing room, post-concert. Luna is tired, removing makeup. Maya nervously enters, clutching a guitar.)
Maya:
Please… just one song. For him. The one I love. He needs to hear it.
Luna: (grumbling)
You’re lucky my mood’s better than last week. Fine. One song, then out. No autograph, no selfies.
(Maya nervously plays a haunting melody. Luna watches, expression shifting from irritation to faint curiosity.)
Luna:
That’s… not bad. You can go now. So long.
(Luna opens the door sharply. Maya nods, backing out, but pauses.)
Maya:
Wait — have you ever tried Reiki? I think it could help with your... you.
Luna: (snorts)
Yeah, right. Like energy healing’s gonna fix this spotlight headache.
(Maya smiles mysteriously.)
Act 2: Rising Stars and Rekindled Energy
(Scene shifts to a small Nashville music venue. Maya plays guitar on a makeshift stage. Record Exec watches, intrigued.)
Record Exec:
You’ve got something. Local buzz, regional radio, national tours — we can make you big.
(Montage of Maya’s rise to fame as Luna’s star fades. They reconnect in brief, intense Reiki sessions, their energy swirling dangerously.)
Act 3: Descent and Demise
(Luna’s dressing room again, now shadowed and cluttered. Luna looks pale and unwell. Maya calls repeatedly, their relationship growing toxic.)
Luna:
Stop calling. Stop this. You’re ruining me.
Maya: (over phone)
You’re mine, Luna. I won’t let you go.
(Fast forward: Maya is at a concert in Austin, Texas. A crazed fan approaches.)
Fan #1:
You don’t belong here!
(Shots fired. Maya collapses on the tarmac, blood pooling.)
Act 4: Resurrection and Return
(Luna on stage, under bright lights, older but renewed. She sings with fierce joy.)
Luna:
This is for the lost, the found, and the fighters. I’m back — and this time, I’m here to stay.
(Curtain closes with standing ovation.)
