Title: Eragon the Musical
Authoresses: maskedangelxX (a.k.a. Isabel Fletcher) and hunkywerecat.
Summary: Just a bit of fun. The story Eragon set to music. Humorous.
(Eragon returns home and enters a small shack)
Eragon: Hello Uncle Garrow; I'm back.
Garrow: Hello Eragon. What have you got for us this time?
Eragon: Unfortunately nothing. It's going to be a long winter I'm afraid.
Garrow: Well, You'll have better luck next time I'm sure. you look tired. Why don't you go get some sleep?
Eragon: I will. Goodnight uncle Garrow.
(Eragon leaves room and walks into his own bedroom where he places the stone on a shelf and stares at it)
Eragon: I wonder what this is...and how it got here. I can't be as bad as Sloan fears, but what do I know? Maybe I'll ask the traders when they come to town...
(Music starts to play. Eragon turns dramatically towards the audience)
Eragon:
What's this? What's this?
It's color soft and fair
What's this?
I cannot help but stare
What's this?
I can't believe my eyes
I must be dreaming
Wake up, Eragon, this isn't fare!
What's this?
What's this? What's this?
Is this something wrong?
What's this?
It's presence is so strong
What's this?
The surface is so
Smooth it makes me happy
So pristine it's almost classy
Have I possibly gone daffy?
What is this?
What's this?
(Eragon picks it up and inspects it. He is unimpressed.)
I don't know how it came here
And frankly don't know why
The fact I cannot trade it
Makes me weary with a sigh
There's just something about it
I think I'll take another look
Oh my goodness! Am I dreaming?
For I think that it just shook...
(Stone starts rattling and wobbling about)
What's this? Oh dear!
It seems that it may break, how queer!
And there's another shake, oh my!
Inside it I can tell there is something
And oh, how it makes me want to sing!
(The stone breaks revealing a small, blue dragon)
It's a creature; it's a creature
Staring straight back up at me!
What's this?
Oh my, what now?
It snaps it's little beak,
And look, it has such tinky feet
It squeals! It flaps it's brittle little wings
Unlike any other things
I think I'm going to touch it...
(Eragon reaches out hand and jolts backwards with a convulsion)
What's this?!?!?!?!?!
This feeling is peculiar
I think I should sit down
What in the world is this
Tiny creature that I've found?
Though it sounds nut's I swear
I feela connection that we share
But what about it's dangers?
Oh of that I must beware...
The sight! The sound!
I want to show it all around
I've never felt so good before
This empty place inside of me is filling up
I simply cannot get enough
I want it, oh, I want it
Oh, I want it for my own
I've got to know
I've got to know
What is this place that I have found?
What is this?
(Dragon shrieks loudly, breaking Eragon's concentration and Eragon hushes it)
Eragon: Well, you're not a bird are you? (Gasps) You're a dragon!!!
(Dragon hops up onto his arm)
Eragon: But waht should I do with you? (Stares at his hand) And what did you do to my hand?
(Lights down)
-dramatic pause-
(Lights
up. Now we see BROM for the first time. He is talking to a group of
townsfolk. Eragon stops to listen. Music begins to play…sinister music…)
Brom
Attend the tale of Galbatorix
How he pulled the meanest of tricks
He befriended many a gentlemen
who never thereafter were heard of again
His secret weakness was brownie mix
was Galbatorix
The dragon rider who betrayed them all.
He had a dragon but then it died
Galbatorix couldn't help it, he cried
But when he asked for another dragon to his dismay
all the council members said "No way!"
for Galby
For Galbatorix
The dragon rider who betrayed them all!
(The listeners join in with the chorus. Eragon is frightened. He doesn't like the dancing)
Chorus:
He plans to kill the varden
he tries to now and then
but we know he'll try to again and again!
He found an ally in the Rider Morzan
It all was going according to plan
Morzan betrayed Gil'ead
But later regretted that he had
Because Galbatorix had easily transfixed
…did Galbatorix!
The dragon rider who betrayed them all.
Sneaky, sly, he surely was
but he doesn't deserve applause.
His smile was insane, so was his word
Galby heard music that nobody heard
Galby was sneaky, Galby was suttle
Galby would blink and rats would scuttle
Galby was sneaky, Galby was suttle
Galby would blink and rats would scuttle
Galby was sneaky, Galby was suttle
Galby would blink and rats would scuttle
Galby was sneaky, Galby was suttle
Galby would blink and rats would scuttle
Galbatorix! Galbatorix! Galby…….!
(a soldier enters, looking annoyed by the noise)
Soldier:
What is this "Tale of Galbatorix"?
Brom:
Only about his many conflicts
Soldier:
What conflicts? Galby is great!!
Brom:
You think so, well just you wait!
Soldier:
It's over now, your "coffee break"
And let me go, I have a head ache…
Chorus:
Galby!
Galbatorix!
The dragon rider who betrayed them all!
(They all immediately clear the stage. Eragon is frozen. With fear? Confusion? We never find out…there is a shout from off stage…)
Here are the songs we used.
1. 'What is this" from the Nightmare before Christmas
2. 'ballad of sweeney todd" from Sweeney Todd (no duh)
You can youtube it.
