ACT 1 SCENE 1
( The curtain is pulled up to reveal Campers celebrating with a silhouette of a man brandishing a sword with two blades in the background)
Campers:
GOOD NEWS! HE's DEAD!
THE TRAITOR IS DEAD!
THE ONE'S WH0'S BETRAYAL WAS AS BRIGHT AS A LAMP
THE ENEMY OF ALL OF US HERE IN CAMP IS DEAD!
GOOD NEWS!
GOOD NEWS!
Random Camper:
Look! It's Percy!
( PERCY, wearing a dark blue prince like outfit with seaweed, appears riding a Pegasus)
Various Campers:
( Shout praise to Percy)
Percy:
It's brilliant to see me, isn't it?
Campers:
Yes!
Percy:
That was rhetorical.
( He grins at them)
Fellow Demigods-
(Sings) LET US BE HAPPY
LET US BE GRATEFUL
LET US REJOCIFY THAT FRIENDSHIP COULD SUBDUE
THE TRAITOROUS WORKINGS OF YOU-KNOW-WHO
ISN'T IT GREAT TO KNOW
THAT GOOD WILL ALWAYS CONQUER EVIL?
THE TRUTH WE ALL BELIEVE'LBY
AND OUTLIVE A LIE
BY YOU AND -
Camper:
Percy! Exactly, how dead is he?
Percy:
Due to their being lots of rumour and speculation - Innuendo,Outuendo - I am going to set the record straight. According to the Mount Olympus clock, The death occurred during the last minutes of the 23 hour, the result of being stabbed in the heel with a dagger by a female camper.
Camper:
NO ONE MOURNS THE TRAITORS!
Another Camper:
NO ONE CRIES: " THEY WILL NEVER RETURN"
All:
NO ONE LAYS A FLOWER ON THEIR GRAVE
Male Camper:
A GOOD MAN KILLS A TRAITOR!
Female Campers:
THROUGH THEIR LIVES, YOUNG CAMPERS LEARN.
All:
WHAT WE MISS WHEN WE BETRAY...
Percy:
AND THE GODS KNOW
A TRAITOR'S LIFE IS LONELY
THE GODS KNOW
ALL TRAITORS DIE ALONE
IT SHOWS THAT WHEN YOU'RE A TRAITOR
YOU'RE LEFT ONLY ON YOUR OWN...
Campers:
YES, THE GODS KNOW
A TRAITOR'S LIFE IS LONELY
THE GODS KNOW
A TRAITOR CRIES ALONE
NOTHING GROWS FOR A TRAITOR
THEY REAP ONLY
WHAT THEY'VE SEWN
Female Camper:
Percy, why does treachery happen?
Percy:
That's a very good question. One that many find confusifying. Are people born traitors? Or is treachery thrust onto them? After all, he did have a childhood. He had a father who just so happened to be the Governor of a small town named Thief...
( From the past, appears a rather somber looking man, The Traitor's father)
Traitor's Father:
I'm off to the assembly, dear!
Percy:
And he had a mother. As so many of us do...
( A very hauntingly beautiful woman rushes to the Traitor's Father's side. The Traitor's Mother, May.)
Traitor's Father:
OH, HOW I HATE TO LEAVE YOU LONELY.
May:
THAT'S ALRIGHT- IT'S ONLY FOR ONE NIGHT
Traitor's Father:
JUST KNOW YOU'RE ALWAYS IN MY HEART WHEN YOU'RE PUT OF MY SIGHT...
( Traitor's Father kisses May's cheek before exiting. May instantly wipes her cheek and pulls a face. She opens a door)
Percy:
Like all families, they had their own secret.
( And her LOVER, a mysterious man who's face remains in the shadows appears)
Lover:
HAVE ANOTHER DRINK, MY BRIGHT-EYED BEAUTY
I HAVE JUST ONE MORE NIGHT HERE IN TOWN
SO HAVE ANOTHER DRINK OF GOLD ELIXIR
WE'LL HAVE OURSELVES A LITTLE MIXER
HAVE ANOTHER SWALLOW, LITTLE LADY.
( May drinks from the golden vial her Lover is holding)
Lover:
AND FOLLOW ME DOWN...
(They kiss and sink to the floor. The Lover disappears whilst May struggles up, now heavily pregnant)
Percy:
Yet from the moment he was born, he was...well, different.
( Suddenly, May clutches herself in pain)
May:
Aggghhhh!
( The Traitor's Father runs in, followed by a midwife who happens to be a Cyclops. They hold her.)
Midwife:
It's Coming...
Traitor's Father:
Now?
Midwife: The baby's coming!
Traitor's Father:
And how!
Midwife:
I'M FEELING NERVOUS
Traitor's Father:
I'M FILLED WITH JOY
Both:
IT'S A HEALTHY BRILLIANT HANDSOME LITTLE..
Midwife:
Ohh!
Traitor's Father:
Sweet Oz!
May:
What is it? What's wrong?
Traitor's Father:
HOW CAN IT BE?
Midwife:
IT MAKE ME SHIVER LIKE I'M COLD
Traitor's Father:
IT'S ATROCIOUS
Midwife:
IN METAL, IT'S BEEN ROLLED!
Both:
LIKE THE NECKLACE OF A RICH WOMAM
THE BABY IS UNNATURALLY GOLD!
( Traitor's Father and Midwife hold up a Golden baby)
Traitor's Father:
Take it away!
( Midwife tries to hand it to him)
Traitor's Father:
(Shouting) Take it away from me!
Percy:
So, you can see. It would of never been easy.
Campers:
NO ONE MOURNS A TRAITOR
NOW AT LAST, HE'S FINALLY DEAD AND GONE
NOW AT LAST, THERE'S CELEBRATIONS THROUGH OUT THE LAND.
AND THE GOD'S KNOW
Percy:
THE GOD'S KNOW
Campers:
WE KNOW WHAT GOODNESS IS
Percy:
( Has an expression of mourning, guilt and regret)
HIS LIFE WAS LONELY
Campers:
THE GOD'S KNOW
Percy:
THE GOD'S KNOW
Campers:
TRAITORS' DIE ALONE
Percy:
( Looks close to tears)
HE DIED ALONE...
Campers:
WOE TO THOSE
WHO SPURN WHAT THE RIGHT THING
IS THEY ARE SHOWN
NO MOURNS A TRAITOR
Percy:
GOOD NEWS!
Campers:
NO ONE MOURNS A TRAITOR
Percy:
GOOD NEWS!
Campers:
NO ONE MOURNS A TRAITOR
TRAITOR!
TRAITOR!
TRAITOR!
Percy:
Well, this has been lots of fun but as you can imagine I have lots to attend to, What with Hermes' unexpected departure. And , so if nobody had any further questions-
(Suddenly a Camper interrupts him)
Camper:
Percy! Is it true? You were his friend?
(The Campers gasp, Percy freezes, completely thrown. )
Percy:
I- Um...I-...Well...Yes...
( Campers gasp)
Percy:
Well,it depends on your definition of friend. I did know him. That is to say, our paths did cross more than once. At Camp...but you must understand, it was a long time ago and we were both so young...
( The past once again comes alive as Percy sees his friend Luke, just as he was their first day that Perseus ( as he was known back then) first laid eyes on him, young, hopeful and...gold.)
So, good? Bad? Reviews are always good!( Like Green! ). The reason Luke is Gold and not Green is because Gold is a colour associated with Hermes
