~YEAH!! Next two scenes finally written! Weehuu!! This calls for a celebration! Really! Hope you liked this chapter too! ^__^

Scene 12

(Fuu finally finds Ascot near a river, roasting marshmallows with Mokona, who was speaking in its usual one-syllable conversation.)

Ascot: Yeah, I know, Mokona. Don't worry, I won't eat you. I've gotten enough marshmallows to roast and eat. I'm getting full.

Mokona: PU PU PU!

Fuu: Father! Er…what are you doing here? Roasting in the snow!

Ascot: That's not snow, that's melted marshmallow. Hey! That rhymes! Cool!

Fuu: (sweatdrop) Hey, were you the one doing all this melting thing?

Ascot: Aska said that we ran out of snow, so the marshmallows were my idea. Don't they taste great?

Fuu: Ew…

Mokona: PU PU PU!

Fuu: Come on, father, we have to get home soon; our next line is at home, when Geo starts to sing horribly again.

Geo: HEY! YOU WEREN'T SUPPOSED TO SAY THAT!

Fuu: Say what? The plot or the fact that you sing terribly?

Geo: BOTH!

Zazu: GEO, GET OUT OF THE SCENE!

Geo: NO! FORGET THE HOUSE!! I'M TAKING THEM DOWN NOW!

Zazu: Oi, vayez, me.

Fuu and Ascot: Huh?

Geo: (approaches them) Now, listen, Fuu, ew…..what the heck? This isn't snow!

Zazu: That's what I've been trying to tell you, Geo. There are too many marshmallows surrounding them. They're greatly defended!

Geo: Argh! (says in a witchy voice) I'll get you, my pretty! And your little father, too!

Fuu: (gasp) You're going to hurt Toto!

Ascot: Who's Toto?

Fuu: Toto! My dog! Wait a minute, wrong movie.

Zazu: (mutters) You've got that right.

Geo: Come on, Zazu, this is not worth it. What am I supposed to do with a stupid woman and her loony father?

Fuu and Ascot: WHAT DID YOU CALL ME?!

Zazu: That's right! He called you two stupid and useless!

Ascot: What are you talking about?! How dare you insult my daughter! How dare you insult me! How dare you insult my family!

Geo: I didn't say anything about your family.

Eagle: (to the people backstage) And the fighting starts…

Ascot: What what what? You wanna fight?

Geo: Yeah! Your house! 5 o'clock, sharp. Pick your second!

Zazu: What's that?

Fuu: It's the right hand person, in case you die, and that person takes over.

Ascot: Well, in that case, I pick Fuu.

Fuu: What?

Geo: I pick Zazu!

Zazu: I'm gonna die….

Fuu: Wait a minute, we didn't pick any weapons yet! In an RPG duel, the challenged picks the weapon. But, in this case, I'm the main character, so I pick bows and arrows!

Geo: That's not fair! You picked that because you're good at bows and arrows! Now Zazu's surely gonna die!

Ferio: (comes in) That's it, for one thing, you're getting out of character, and the other thing, you are supposed to be at Fuu's house trying to persuade her to marry you.

Geo: Yeah, but what if I don't want to marry Fuu?

Ferio: GEO!

(Geo, Zazu, Fuu and Ascot jump and leave the area.)

Mokona: PU PU PU!

(area opens up in Fuu's cottage with Lafarga listening to his walkman)

Lafarga: Whenever, wherever, we're meant to be together, I'll be there and you'll be near and that's the deal my dear…(does the leg thing)

Ascot: What the heck is all that awful noise? I'm talking in here with my daughter and a hassled teacup!

Clef: I'M NOT A TEACUP!

Lafarga: We're on? Oh sh…(puts walkman away and acts like an evil gentleman) Well, M…uh, Ascot. I'm here to take you for a ride.

Ascot: So we can commit suicide? Uh…What are you talking about? And where are Geo and Zazu? Aren't they supposed to be with you?

Mokona: PU PU PU!

(Geo and Zazu run in, panting)

Clef: LAFARGA!!! I DEMAND TO KNOW WHY I AM OUT OF MY CASTLE!!

Lafarga: Clef? Is that you? (gasps) How'd you get there?

Geo: Fuu!! Come on out!

Ascot: Why Fuu?

Lafarga: Parce que…

Zazu: Oh now you decide to speak French? Sheesh, please, Lafarga, in plain old English!

Lafarga: Urgh…Because I am here to take you, Ascot, to the asylum so the people there can do tests on you.

Ascot: I'm not loony!

Zazu: Says who?

Geo: Zazu!

Zazu: Why'd you say that for?

Geo: 'Cause it rhymed with what you said.

Fuu: (finally comes out) Huh? What is going on here? I'm trying to read a book here.

Ascot: What book is it this time?

Fuu: (starry eyed) Oh, the fourth manga book of Magic Knight Rayearth, of course! I'm up to the part where I'm talking to Ferio! Aww….sweet! Let me finish this chapter, and then we can go on.

Clef: (looking interested) Hey, is that me? And is that Umi?

Lafarga: Hey!! Am I smiling?

Ascot: YOU GUYS?!?! HELLO!!! THIS IS A MOVIE WE'RE GOING THROUGH! WILL YOU GET BACK TO YOUR LINES?

Man with tankard of ale: Hey, Ascot, is the beast still in his castle?

Clef: IT'S MY CASTLE!

Ascot: Yes! The one with the long fangs and who is hideously ugly!

Ferio: HEY!

Fuu: Ferio, one more word out of you, and this relationship is over!

Ferio: …(stays silent)

Fuu: (smiles) That's better. Now, where was I?

Geo: Come on, Fuu, marry me and your loony father won't be banished from Cephiro forever!

Lafarga: MWAHAHAHAHA!

Ferio: Why you…(is being restrained by Sang Yung and Aska from the back) Let me at him! Geo won't marry my girl!

Fuu: (looking alarmed) Oh dear, but the beast is real! He's right there!

Geo: Huh? (turns towards Ferio) AAAH!!! IT'S THE BEAST!

Clef: Ferio! GET BACK TO MY CASTLE!!

Ferio: Oh, right. Bye, teacup.

Clef: Why did I even bother?

Zazu: Hey, that's funky, Geo, you're a great fighter? I don't remember saying that…

Geo: Give me that…(grabs book and narrows eyes) Hey, they make it look like Eagle is the head of the NSX. Why those people…

Man with tankard of ale: Oh, give it up, already. You know Eagle's the coolest!

A bunch of female admirers (as well as myself): (swoons) EAGLE VISION IS THE BEST!

Eagle: Merci, at least there are people who like me.

Geo: ARGH!! THAT DOESN'T MATTER!! IT'S THE BEAST WE'RE AFTER!

Crowd: YEAH!

Ferio: CUT!!

Geo: What?! This is the part when we sing the Mob Song!

Ferio: (shrugs) Mokona said that should be in the next scene. You took too much time on this one.

Geo: ARGH!! Fine!

Mokona: PU PU PU!

Scene 13

(scene opens up and the same people are outside of Fuu's house)

Geo: (grumbles) Are we on, yet?

Zazu: Hey, the camera is pointing right at us, Geo. Does that mean we're on?

Lafarga: YEAH!

Geo: The Beast will make off with your children! (makes a scary face, which made Aska cry, since she is playing a child of a villager) Er…I'm sorry, Aska….no, don't cry…(Crowd gasps.) Ehe…Ahem…He'll come after them in the night!

Fuu: No, he won't!

Geo: We're not safe til his head is mounted on my wall! Well, my new castle!

Clef: IT'S MY CASTLE!

Geo: I say we kill Clef!

Ascot: No!! Kill the Beast!

Geo: That's right! Listen to the loony old man! Kill the beast!

Crowd: Kill the Beast!

Fuu: Why is everyone so crazed on killing Ferio?

Lafarga: (seething) Because he thinks he's head of this show…doesn't he? He tells us this…and then that…well, I'm fed up with it!

Zazu: YEAH!

Geo: Nobody tells Geo Metro what to do!

Fuu: Uh-oh…

Lafarga: We're not safe until he's dead!

Clef: (chuckling evilly) He'll come stalking us at night!

Presea: Set to sacrifice our children to his monstrous appetite!

Zazu: He'll wreak havoc on our village,
if we let him wander free!

Geo: (clears throat and sings)
So it's time to take some action, guys!
It's time to follow me!
(grabs a torch from out of nowhere and holds it up)
Through the mist, through the woods
Through the darkness and the shadows
It's a nightmare but it's one exciting ride!
(grabs Zazu and starts heading to the woods, with everyone following him)
Say a prayer, then we're there
At the drawbridge of a castle
And there's something truly terrible inside:

Mokona: PU PU PU!

Geo: NOT YOU, MOKONA!

Mokona: (leaves, sadly, and grabs Geo's torch, leaving darkness)

Aska: Mommy, I'm scared of the dark…

Zazu: Oh, shut up, you hag.

Aska: WHAT DID YOU SAY?!?! Sang Yung!

Sang Yung: Yes, Lady Aska!

Aska: KILL ZAZU!

Sang Yung: Er…are you sure you want to do that, Lady Aska?

Ascot: No, she doesn't. Just get on with the song, Geo.

Geo: But I don't have a torch. I can't see!

Hikaru: (appears and sighs) Honouo Ya! (fire appears and light is seen, so everyone could go on)

Geo: (continues) It's a beast!--He's got fangs, razor sharp ones!

Ferio: Grr….

Geo: Massive paws, killer claws for the feast!
Hear him roar! See him foam!
But we're not coming home,
'Til he's dead!!!
Good and dead!
Kill FERIO!!

Fuu: (alarmed) No! I won't let you do this!

Geo: If you're not with us, you're against us! Bring the old man!
(Lafarga and the man called Tom drags Ascot over)

Ascot: Get your hands off me! (starts to struggle)

Geo: We can't have them running off to warn the creature!

Fuu: (muffled) Let us out! Ferio isn't a creature! Hey, and what about Clef?

Geo: (looks at Clef, who was backing away, nervously) Yeah, what about the teacup?

Clef: Uh…All hail Geo!

Geo: (shrugs) We'll rid the village of this Beast! Who's with me?!?

Tarta, Tatra, and Caldina: I definitely am!

Crowd: Light your torch!
Mount your horse!

Geo: Screw your courage to the sticking place! What? What do these words mean anyway?

Lafarga: KEEP SINGING!

Zazu: We're counting on Geo to lead the way!

Caldina: (getting nervous) Through a mist, through a wood,

Tatra: (shivering and grabbing her sister) Where within a haunted castle,

Tarta: (getting choked) …Tatra…Something's…lurking that you…don't see every…DAY!

Lafarga: It's a beast! One as tall as a mountain,

Ferio: Actually, I'm only about 5 feet 7 inches tall, if you wanted to know.

Geo: We won't rest 'til he's good and deceased!
Sally forth! Tally ho!
Grab your sword! Grab your bow!

Ferio: Now this is really getting serious…

Lafarga: Praise the Lord and here we go!

Geo: We'll lay siege to the castle and bring back his head! (tries to imitate him holding a head, but is a bad mime, so just shrugs and goes on)

(Meanwhile, in the house, where Fuu, Ascot, and Clef were in, Fuu is contemplating with herself)

Fuu: I have to warn Ferio! This is all my fault! Oh, Papa, what are we going to do?

Ascot: Who cares? I mean…now, now, we'll think of something...

Crowd: We don't like what we don't understand
in fact, it scares us
And this monster is mysterious at least!

Lantis: Figures. These people don't like anything strange. So, if someone like Alcyone would show up, then they'd want to kill her too.

Eagle: Eh…Lantis, Alcyone is already dead.

Lantis: And how about you? Aren't you supposed to be dead?

Eagle: … (tries to find a good answer, but couldn't) Well…aren't we in the wrong scene?

Lantis: Wait a minute! We have to get back to the castle!

Lafarga: Bring your guns! Bring your knives!
Save your children and your wives!
We'll save our village and our lives!
We'll kill Ferio!
(in the castle, Eagle and Lantis come in, panting)

Lantis: I knew it. I knew it was foolish to get our hopes up. But what did you do, Eagle? Bring everyone's hopes up!

Eagle: Hey! It wasn't my fault! Maybe it would have been better if she'd never come at all! (sees the angry mob) Could it be?

Umi: (raising an eyebrow) Is it she?

Eagle: Sacre bleu! Invaders!

Lantis: Encroachers!

Eagle and Umi: What's that?

Lantis: …Never mind…

Umi: (gasps) And they have the mirror!

Lantis: Warn the master! If it's a fight they want, we'll be ready for them!! AHAHAHA!! They don't call me the Master Mage Swordsman for nothing! Who's with me?!

(everyone has left, and Lantis was the only one in the room, and he falls to the floor, and the scene unfortunately goes back to Geo and the rest of the people)

Geo: Take whatever booty you can find, but remember, Ferio is MINE!

Ferio: That's not fair! I can't fight Geo!

The people in the castle: Lights ablaze, banners high,
We go marching into battle,
unafraid, although the danger just increased.

People outside: Raise the flag! Sing the song!
Here we come, we're fifty strong
And fifty Frenchmen can't be wrong!
Let's kill the Beast!

Umi: (opens the door to Ferio's room) Pardon me, master...

Ferio: Leave me in peace. Can't you see I'm thinking on how to get rid of those invaders down there?!

Umi: But, sir!--The castle is under attack! Hey, you know already?

Crowd outside: Kill the Beast! Kill the Beast!

Ferio: Gee, it's hard not to know when you could hear them outside screaming like that.

Umi: WILL YOU GUYS SHUT UP OUT THERE! I'M TALKING TO MY MASTER UP HERE!

Eagle: (trying to hold the door down, with the help of Lantis, Presea and Hikaru) This isn't working!

Presea: But, Eagle, we must do something!

Eagle: Wait, I know!

Lantis: (annoyed) What?

Hikaru: Give Eagle a chance!

Lantis: Come on!

Mob outside: Kill the Beast!
Kill the Beast!

Umi: What shall we do, Master?

Ferio: It doesn't matter, now. Just let them come. What am I saying? They're trying to take my life for goodness's sakes! Defend with your most powerful magic, Umi! Use Selece!

Umi: Ehe…we were told not to do that, Ferio.

Ferio: I'm gonna die…

Really angry mob: (knocking the door down) KILL FERIO!
KILL FERIO!
KILL FERIO!

Eagle: And again, the fighting starts…

(door is burst open, and the place turns black)
