Scene 10
(Geo and Zazu are in a meeting with Lafarga.)
Lafarga: (raises an eyebrow and starts to sing) So…you wanna be a hero kid, well, whoopee doo. I have been around the block before with blockheads just like you.
Geo: LAFARGA!
Lafarga: WHAT?!?!
Zazu: WRONG MOVIE!!!!
Lafarga: (smacks head) Oopsie daisy. Now, where was I?
Geo: We were talking about Maurice! Er…I mean, Ascot and how loony he was!
Ascot: I'M NOT A LOONY!
Zazu: (opens door and screams out) SHUT UP!!! YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE LISTENING TO THIS CONVERSATION!! (clears throat) Now, we were saying?
Lafarga: Yes, but Ascot isn't at all harmful.
Geo: It's not Ascot, Lafarga. It's Fuu. She'd do anything for her father. I mean anything.
Ascot: Hey, Fuu, can you get me a cup of coffee?
Fuu: Um…I am not obliged to you and therefore will not get your drink.
Geo: Eh…well, almost anything.
Lafarga: …I see…
Geo: So, do we have a deal?
Lafarga: I don't even know what you're talking about…(starts to cackle evilly) but I love it!
Geo and Zazu: (look at each other) Yeesh…freaky.
(Area fades and we go to Ascot, who is packing up in his house.)
Ascot: No one will help me, then I'll go to Ferio's castle myself.
Clef: MY CASTLE!
(Ascot fumbles about looking for different things to bring. He's making a mess at his house.)
Ascot: Let's see…rope, candles, cloth, sticks…marshmallows…
Fuu: Marshmallows?
Ascot: Yeah, what did you think I was doing? I'm going camping!!
Aska: Now the end is truly coming.
Sang Yung: Don't worry, Lady Aska. It's not over yet.
(Ascot leaves and then Geo and Zazu show up.)
Geo: (pounds on door) Open up, Ascot! I say, open up!
Aska: (whispering) Should we tell them that the door is open?
Sang Yung and Aska: (look at each other and grinned) NAH!!!
Zazu: (after waiting many hours) Oh, look, the door's open. I don't think anyone's inside.
Geo: (getting angry and grabs Zazu) Well then, Zazu! (throws him into the snow) You're not moving until Fuu and her father come back.
Zazu: Hey! Ew…what is this stuff?
Sang Yung: (whispers) Should we tell him that it's not snow but melted marshmallows?
Aska: Let him find out for himself!
Scene 11
(Eagle, Lantis, and Ferio are in a room, where Lafarga is the hair dresser.)
Ferio: Ouch! What are you doing, Lafarga?! Stop making braids on my hair!
Eagle: Take it easy, Ferio. You actually look okay.
Lantis: Lies….all lies…
Eagle: Shh…you're not supposed to say that!
Ferio: I do look terrible, don't I?
Lafarga: Do not worry, master. For I, LAFARGA, will make you the belle of the ball!
Ferio: I AM A MAN! NOT A WOMAN!!
Lafarga: Oops…I came in the wrong dressing room then.
Ferio: ARGH!!!
Lantis: Oh, give me that comb. (grabs comb from Lafarga and starts to make Ferio's hair look decent. To everyone's surprise, after Lantis was done, he actually did make Ferio look much better.)
Eagle: Nice work, Lantis! You're a pro!
Lafarga: (getting angry) HEY! THAT WAS MY JOB!!
Umi: (interrupts) FERIO!! FUU'S WAITING DOWNSTAIRS FOR YOU TO SHOW UP FOR DINNER!
Ferio: I'm late! I'm late for a very important date!
(Ferio runs out, not even bothering to put on his tuxedo.)
Umi: (shakes head) Should we drag him back here so he could actually get dressed properly? I don't think Fuu would approve of Ferio in his underwear.
(Ferio runs back in, horrified.)
Ferio: Where's my tux?
Lafarga: (points) You better hurry, master.
(For the last time, Ferio runs out, tripping and falling on his way. Fuu appears, with a green gown, and her hair with a ribbon. Her glasses were put away, and she came down the stairs as gracefully as an angel.)
Ferio: (with mouth hanging wide open) DAMN! SHE'S HOT! Er…Fuu! You're…WOW!
Fuu: (smiles) Why, thank you, Ferio. Hikaru suggested the dress, actually.
Lantis and Eagle: (looking in and also had their mouths wide open) WOW!!! HELLO FUU!
Hikaru: LANTIS!! (smacks Lantis and drags him out.)
Eagle: Heh…that's what he gets for not being single.
Hikaru: YOU TOO, EAGLE! (also smacks Eagle and drags him out of the scene)
(The two sit down on the dining table, as Lafarga gives them soup Ferio picks up his spoon and starts to pig out, while Fuu looks at him in amazement.)
Fuu: Um…Ferio, will you please be a bit more graceful?
Ferio: (with a mouthful of food) What? Oh, oh, shorry…(slows down, and eats like a gentleman.)
Fuu: That's better.
Lafarga: (barges in and shoves a violin in front of Fuu, playing horribly)
Fuu: AHH!!
Lafarga: What? Did I do something wrong? Isn't my violin playing good?
Ferio: Actually, it's the most horrible thing I've ever heard…
Fuu: (shoots Ferio a glare and forces a smile) Eh…Lafarga, let's just say that people who've never heard of the violin will appreciate it.
Lafarga: THANX! (continues to play horribly)
Ferio: (mutters, while holding his ears shut) Nice job, Fuu. Now we're going to have to listen to him play for the next hour.
(Umi comes in dressed in a formal attire, and she's holding a microphone, ready to sing the couple a song.)
Fuu: (starts to clap) Umi-chan! You're going to sing! This is wonderful!
Ferio: Thank goodness. Saved by Umi.
(Lafarga leaves, still playing the violin, until he leaves the room, when someone hit him with his own violin. Ascot and Clef are snickering in the background, pulling Lafarga away from the stage.)
Umi: (sweatdrop) Tale as old as time,
True as it can be.
Barely even friends,
Then somebody bends
Unexpectedly.
(This time, when violin music does play, it's played really well. Fuu and Ferio look around, trying to figure out who was playing the violin, when they find out it's Sang Yung, who was struggling to keep from falling off the balcony where he was playing.)
Aska: (sniffs) Sang Yung, it's beautiful!
Ascot: Yeah, yeah, shut up. Umi's
singing.
Clef: YEAH!! UMI'S SINGING!
Umi: (clears throat) Just a little change,
Small, to say the least.
Both a little scared,
Neither one prepared,
Genius and the Beast
Ferio: Hey, Fuu, you wanna dance?
Fuu: Sure…but…um…where's your ballroom?
Clef: IT'S MY CASTLE!
Ferio and Fuu: WE KNOW!!
Umi: I'M SINGING!!!!!! (at the top of her voice without
getting out of tune)
Ever just the same.
Ever a surprise.
Ever as before,
Ever just as sure
As the sun will rise.
(Ferio and Fuu starts to waltz around, when Lantis and Eagle come back in.)
Lantis: Hey, does Ferio know how to dance?
Ferio: (sweatdrop and falls to the floor) Er…I forgot, Fuu. I don't know how to dance.
Fuu: (looking concerned) Oh, but we have to dance. That's the big part in the movie.
Ferio: What movie?
Fuu: Why, Beauty and the Beast. The girl Belle dances with the beast at this time, while the teapot sings. So, I have to dance, too.
Eagle: I'll take your place, Ferio! Just this once!
Ferio: NO!! NO! NO! NO!
Eagle: It was only a suggestion…
Ferio and Lantis: NO!
Eagle: What have you got against it, Lantis?
Lantis: You can't dance either, Eagle.
Eagle: Yes, I can.
Lantis: No, you can't.
Eagle: You haven't seen me.
Lantis: Everyone in Autozam says you can't dance.
Geo and Zazu: Eagle sucks at dancing!
Lantis: See?
Umi: (stomps foot impatiently) Are you guys done? Can I sing now?
Fuu: Yeah, Umi. Come on, Ferio, I'll teach you how to dance.
Umi: That's better. (continues to sing)
Tale as old as time
Tune as old as song.
Bittersweet and strange,
Finding you can change,
Learning you were wrong.
Aska: Hey, what happened to Sang Yung?
(Everyone looks towards the balcony, as they find out that the violin wasn't playing anymore. Sang Yung was found hanging for his life at the balcony, since he was about to fall.)
Sang Yung: Aska-sama!!!! SAVE ME!!
Fuu: Winds of Admonishment! (brings Sang Yung to the ground, with the violin as well.)
Sang Yung: (bows) Thank you. Now I can go on playing. (plays the violin again)
Umi: Well…that's more like it.
Certain as the sun
Rising in the East.
Tale as old as time,
Song as old as rhyme.
Genius and the Beast.
Eagle: I still say…
Umi: NO MORE INTERRUPTIONS!!
Tale as old as time,
Eagle: But, I…
Clef: YOU HEARD UMI!!! SHUT UP!
Umi: Song as old as rhyme,
Lantis: Don't say anything.
Ascot: SHUT UP!
Umi: I QUIT! (walks out, with everyone staring at her)
Eagle: (looks at Lantis, shaking his head) Tsk…tsk…
Lantis: What did I do?
Lafarga: (finally back into consciousness, finishes the song up in an awful female pitched sing-song voice)
Genius and the Beast.
Ferio: What the hell was that?!
Aska: Don't worry, it's only Lafarga.
Clef and Ascot: Hey! How'd you get out? We tied you up!
Lafarga: Oh, so it was you who tied me up?! (starts a brawl) DIE!!
(Fuu and Ferio go into a secluded area, where Fuu sits down by the light of the moon)
Ferio: Hehehe…
Fuu: Ferio, get serious, you pervert. I'm here to discuss a proposition.
Ferio: Huh?
Fuu: Well, it seems that you have me locked up in this castle, don't you?
Ferio: Well, yeah…
Fuu: And I can't get out, right?
Ferio: No…
Fuu: But you love me, do you not?
Ferio: Of course…(raises an eyebrow) Fuu, what is this all about?
Fuu: (smiles) Well, if you love me, then you will let me see my father again.
Ferio: But he isn't even your real father, and he's loony! And old! And he's a bit obsessive with his animals!
Ascot: HEY!
Fuu: FERIO!! I WANT OUT NOW!
Ferio: FINE! (shoves a mirror in front of her) TAKE THE MIRROR!!! YOU'RE GOING TO NEED IT!
Fuu: DON'T SCREAM AT ME!
Sang Yung: And the mush stops…
Aska: (sighs) Aw…and I was kind of enjoying it, too.
Clef: What are you talking about? They didn't even say anything to each other except yell every word out.
(Fuu leaves the castle, and Ferio is looking gloomy. Lantis comes in, eating a sandwich.)
Lantis: Hey, master. Well, I've got to hand it to you, you've got the girl now. In no time, we're going to break the spell.
Ferio: She left. She forced me to let her go.
Lantis: WHAT?!?! (spits his sandwich out, and throwing the remains of his sandwich out the castle)
Ascot: HEY!!! NO LITTERING!!!
Hikaru: Ow…some cheese just hit me in the head.
Umi: (sweatdrop) The sandwich must have been stale, to contain hard cheese like that.
Eagle: Ew…Lantis, what are you eating?
Umi: Hey, where's Clef?
Eagle: Clef? Gee, I don't know.
Lafarga: (chuckles) He…he…he…this place ain't his castle any more.
Umi: (wide-eyed) Lafarga, what have you done to Clef?
Lafarga: Oh, nothing. He just took a dive into a particular person's bag, and well, is transported out of here.
Ascot: Well, good riddance.
Hikaru: Hey, Ascot, aren't you supposed to be in another scene?
Ascot: Oh right! Bye!
Umi: NO!! MY BABY!!! HE'S GONE!!
Ferio: (explodes) COOL IT, WOMAN! HE'S NOT THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IN THE WORLD!! CAN'T YOU SEE?!?! WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!!! FUU IS GONE!!! THE GOLDEN ARROW IS GOING TO WILT AND WE'LL ALL D-I-E!!
Eagle: I'm surprised, Ferio. You can spell.
Ferio: ARGH!! NEXT SCENE!
