Rated PG
I still want more ideas for a HY/RP fic. Tell me in the reviews or email them to prncssprsfne@yahoo.com. The g-boys & co. don't belong to me. Neither does Much Ado About Nothing. On with the show ...
IZZY: Did you guys study the next act last night? Cause scene II and III of act II is nine pages long. We've got a lot of work on our hands. Oh yeah-your costumes came in last night. *hands each a box with their names tagged on* This is gonna be a dress rehearsal so go find a room and dress.
10 MINUTES LATER ...
DOROTHY: Who decided to make my costume BROWN?!?
IZZY: *little horns show up* I have absolutely no idea ...
DOROTHY: Hmph. This so totally clashes with my hair color.
IZZY: *speaks in a low voice* Oh I know ...
HEERO, DUO and ALL OTHER GUYS (except for Quatre): We have to wear tights?!?
QUATRE: *laughs at other guys* I don't have to! I just have to wear this robe thing cause I'm the friar.
IZZY: Hello ... This is supposed to be fourteenth century stuff. Be a man! You guys are such wusses!
RELENA: *steps out of a room fully dressed in costume* I don't know ... it's not that bad.
HEERO: *mouth drops open, but then he quickly shuts it*
MILLIARDO: *sees Heero gawking at his sister and glares bullets into his back*
RELENA: *is dressed in a lilac colored gown with a lace up front and three-fourth sleeves edged in heavy lace* (AN: descriptive enough for ya?)
HILDE: *her dress is in the same style as Relena except hers is dark blue*
DUO: *constantly stares at Hilde*
HILDE: *upon spotting Duo, decides to flirt a little. She walks up to him, spins around in front of him to give him a full view* Do I look okay? I'm feeling a little uncomfortable. I've never worn anything like this before.
DUO: *putting on his "trying-to-be-cool-but-I'm-not-quite-there-yet" look* Hilde, babe, you look great! It looks like you were born in the thing. Wait-you look more than great-you look wonderful!
IZZY: *laughs* Uh huh. Hilde, hon, don't trust anything Duo says for a second although you do look pretty good. Duo?
DUO: Yeah, Iz?
IZZY: Try to get laid on your own time. 'Kay, sweetie?
DUO: *shrinks back*
NOIN: My costume isn't very different from my uniform.
IZZY: Good, Cathrine, how's yours?
CATHRINE: Good, I guess.
IZZY: Wufei, how 'bout you?
WUFEI: Whining is impertinent.
IZZY: I'll take that as a 'fine.' I'm not even going to ask the rest of you. You're probably just gonna whine about the tights again. Now let's begin! Act II, scene II: a hall in Leonato's house. Trowa, Dorothy-you're on. Action!
TROWA/DON JOHN: It is so; Count Claudio will marry the daughter of Leonato.
DOROTHY/BORACHIO: Yes, Lord, but I can cross it.
TROWA/DON JOHN: How can you cross this marriage?
DOROTHY/BORACHIO: For a year, I have been in the favor of Margaret, a lady-in-waiting to Hero.
TROWA/DON JOHN: Yes, I remember.
DOROTHY/BORACHIO: I can get her to look out of Hero's chamber window.
TROWA/DON JOHN: How can that kill this marriage?
DOROTHY/BORACHIO: Go to your brother and tell Don Pedro to tell Claudio that he has wronged his honor.
TROWA/DON JOHN: What proof shall I make of that?
DOROTHY/BORACHIO: Proof enough to misuse the prince, vex Claudio, undo Hero and kill Leonato. Go then to find an hour to draw Don Pedro and Claudio alone. Tell them you that that Hero loves me. Tell them you have discovered this and bring them to Hero's window where I will have called Margaret. I will fashion that Hero shall be absent. There will be truth that Hero is disloyal.
TROW/DON JOHN: I will go learn of their wedding day.
IZZY: Cut! Great-that's the end of the scene. *looks at Dorothy who looks upset* What's wrong Dorothy?
DOROTHY: Why did you make me the bad guy? I have a feeling you don't like me much.
IZZY: *evil laugh inside* Whatever gave you that idea? Now go sit with Sailor Uranus and Neptune and they'll keep you company. *whispers to Uranus and Neptune* Make sure she stays shut up.
CATHRINE: Who's in the next scene?
IZZY: Heero.
HEERO: *gets up on stage*
IZZY: Act II, scene III: Leonato's orchard. Action!
HEERO/BENEDICK: Boy!
IZZY: Somebody get the boy!
WUFEI: *grabs the boy and pushes him in the direction of the stage*
BOY: Signior?
HEERO/BENEDICK: In my window lies a book: bring it to me.
BOY: *exits*
HEERO/BENEDICK: *upon seeing the prince and Claudio* Ha! The prince and Monsieur Love! I will hide myself. *hides*
IZZY: Wufei, Duo and Treize-you guys are up!
WUFEI/DON PEDRO: Come, shall we hear music?
DUO/CLAUDIO: Yes, my good lord.
WUFEI/DON PEDRO: *whispers* Do you see where Benedick has hid himself?
IZZY: Sally, come on in! And with the music!
WUFEI/DON PEDRO: Come, Balthasar we'll hear that song again.
IZZY: Now you exit Sally. Sorry it's short but that's it.
WUFEI/DON PEDRO: Come, Leonato. What did you tell me today, that your niece Beatrice was in love with Signior Benedick?
DUO/CLAUDIO: I never thought that lady would love any man.
TREIZE/MILLIARDO: No, neither did I. But it is good that she loves Signior Benedick.
HEERO/BENEDICK: Is it possible?
WUFEI/DON PEDRO: Has she made her affecton know to Benedick?
TREIZE/LEONATO: No; and she swears she never will: that's her torment.
DUO/CLAUDIO: It's true. So your daughters says, 'Shall I that have so often encountered him with scorn, write to him that I love him?'
TREIZE/LEONATO: My daughter says Beatrice is up late at night to write on a sheet of paper.
DUO/CLAUDIO: Now you talk of a sheet of paper; I remember a pretty jest your daughter told us.
TREIZE/LEONATO: Oh that when she was reading Beatrice's lett she could Benedick and Beatrice between the sheet?
DUO/CLAUDIO: Yes, that.
TREIZE/LEONATO: She tore the letter into a thousand pieces and railed at herself, that she should be so immodest to write to one that she knew would mock her.
RELENA: *blushes bright red*
DUO/CLAUDIO: Then down upon her knees se falls, weeps, sobs, beats her heart, tears at her hair, prays; 'O sweet Benedick! God give me patience!'
TREIZE/LEONATO: It is very true.
WUFEI/DON PEDRO: It would be good if Benedick knew of it by some other.
DUO/CLAUDIO: To what end? He would torment her and make jest of it.
WUFEI/DON PEDRO: She is an excellent sweet lady; and she is virtuous.
DUO/CLAUDIO: And exceedingly wise.
WUFEI/DON PEDRO: In everything but loving Benedick.
DUO/CLAUDIO: Never tell him.
TREIZE/LEONATO: My lord, will you walk? Dinner is ready.
WUFEI/DON PEDRO: Let us send her to call him in to dinner.
IZZY: Wufei, Duo and Treize-you guys exit. Heero, come out of your hiding spot.
HEERO/BENEDICK: This can't be a trick; they heard truth from Hero. They seem to pity her. Love me! Why, it must be requited. They say I will bear myself proudly. I did never think to marry: I must not seem proud. They say the lady is fair. I cannot render her wit no great argument for I will be terribly in love with her.
HEERO: *blushes*
RELENA: *blushes deeper than her*
IZZY: *thinks something is up between the two*
HEERO/BENEDICK: When I said I would die a bachelor, I did not think I should live till I were married. Here comes Beatrice. By this day! she's a fair lady: I do see some marks of love in her.
IZZY: Relena!
RELENA: *daydreams*
IZZY: Releeena!
RELENA: *continues to daydream*
IZZY: RELENA!
RELENA: OH! I'm up, right?
RELENA/BEATRICE: Against my will, I am sent to bid you to come to dinner.
HEERO/BENEDICK: Fiar Beatrice, I thank you for your pains.
RELENA/BEATRICE: I took no more pains for those thanks than you take pains to thank me: if it had been painful, I would not have come.
HEERO/BENEDICK: You take pleasure in the message then?
RELENA/BEATRICE: You have no stomach, signior: farewell.
IZZY: Exit Relena.
RELENA: *ignores Izzy again*
IZZY: RELENA! YOU SAID FAREWELL. NOW FAREWELL YOUR BUTT OFF THAT STAGE!
RELENA: Oops. Sorry, Izzy-chan.
HEERO/BENEDICK: Ha! 'Against my will I am sent to bid you to come to dinner.' There's a double meaning. 'I took no more pains for those thanks than you took pains to thank me.' That's as much to say, Any pains that I take for you is as easy as thanks. If I do not talke pity on her, I am a villian just as I will be one too if I do not love her.
IZZY: Exit now Heero and that's the end of the scene. Good job! Relena, off in la la land now are we? I don't care what you do when your out of here. Just pay attention on stage and remember your cues. PLEASE?!?
RELENA: *blushes ... yet again* Sorry.
That's it for Act II! Yeah! Oh well. Three more acts. *big sweat drop* Please review.
