A troubled play
________________________________
Hello my friends! How are you? Sorry for not updating this one, that soon, but... I needed my humor back again... So... Here it goes another chapter! Hope you like it!
______________________________________
Only one day and all that trouble... What have I done to deserve this!!!!!???? Oh... Feeling better now!
Me (to the thoughtful Hwoarang): HWOARANG DOO SAN!
Hwoarang ("waking up"): It wasn't me! I swear it!
Me: What are you talking about?
Hwoarang (blushing): Nothing! What is it?
Me: What on Earth have you done with Anna?
Hwoarang (looking as if he didn't know what I was talking about!): What do you mean?
Me: YOU know what I mean! That conversation in Steve's house!
Hwoarang: Hum... with Anna... Conversation... Oh I get it!
Me: ............
Hwoarang: .............
Me: ....AND?
Hwoarang: There's nothing to talk about!
Me: What do you mean, nothing to talk about?! What's going on between you and Anna?
Hwoarang: Nothing! That's all! Nothing is happening between us!
Me: Are you telling the truth?
Hwoarang: Of course I am! Who do you think I am to lie to you?!
Me: I see... So why did she come with that conversation about you and her... ?
Hwoarang: Oh you know how Anna is! Don't listen to her!
Me: And why did you react like that when we pulled the subject?
Hwoarang: Julia! Did you think I was going to tell the truth in front of them? Specially, in front of Jin?
Me: Hum... You have a point then... Ah! I'm feeling much better now! Ok... We have to get ready for the damn play! Are you coming?
Hwoarang: Sure!
I'm glad nothing happened between Anna and him! I'm saying this, because I don't like Anna! And I wouldn't like to know that my best friend did IT with her. I know It's none of my business but... It's strange! This was probably the only happy part of my day...! But... I still think something is wrong with him! (Maybe it's just me, being paranoic but... I don't know!) The play... Ooooohhhhh!!!!! The... play... I better start explaining it:
Miharu – The Princess of a kingdom ruled by an evil King.
Lee – The King
Steve – An ordinary boy who falls in love with the princess (Steven)
Hwoarang – A thief ready to capture the Princess just for the money.
Anna – The Queen who loves her daughter (Annalesca)
Me – The Princess' best friend (Juliana....)
Xiaoyu – The girl who is saved by the Princess
Jin– The Princess' brother (Prince) (eheheheheheheheheheheheh! The clothes he has to wear!)
Christie – Steve's sister
Marshall Law – Xiaoyu's attacker
Bruce – The adviser of the King (Bruceli)
Kunimitsu – The Queen's assistant
Paul – The thief, friend of Hwoarang.
So... Now that I've written about the characters... What about the story?! (I still don't know how we made all this by ourselves!) It all starts with Miharu and Steve. Miharu is disguised, (dressed in a long brown cloak) walking down a street (all of us dressed like the kingdom people, making the scenario behind, walking and talking behind the main scene). Xiaoyu comes running, with panic in her eyes (what a great actress Xiaoyu is!) and she collapses with Miharu. Ah! Of course I will not write the whole play... Just some parts!
Xiaoyu: Please help me!
Miharu (looking at the man behind Xiaoyu): What seems to be the problem?
Marshall: Thatbratisgoingtohaveit!
Miharu: Leave the girl alone!
Marshall (laughing): Sheismine!
Miharu (raising her voice): Enough! I said, leave the girl!
Marshall: Youwanttohavesometoo?
Miharu (revealing herself as the Princess): Now! Do you dare to take another step?
Marshall stares at them without moving. One minute later...
Xiaoyu (whispering): What are you waiting for? It's your part!
Marshall: Oh! Right!
He runs away.
Xiaoyu (exaggerating a little in the drama): Oh! My Princess! Thank you for saving me! I will do everything for you! My dear Princess!
Miharu (smiling nervously): Hum... You are welcome little girl. But I don't need any favours from you. Go... And be aware of the danger!
Xiaoyu: I will! Thank you once more!
Steve (getting on Miharu's way and bowing): Princess...
Miharu: What can I do for you?
Steve: How beautiful your voice is! I admire the way you confronted that cruel man.
Miharu: Thank you...
Steve (kissing Miharu's hand): The name is Steven...
Miharu: Nice to meet you Steven... A name I will never forget.
Steve: Will we see each other again? If you let me ask.
Miharu (smiling): Oh... I hope we will...
Steve: Then... I will go to you.
Miharu: No! It's too dangerous... I'll come to meet you... Here, in this same place... Tonight... at midnight.
Steve: Tonight, at midnight I'll be here.
This scene was the only one who wasn't "improvised" during the whole play (I wander why...!) Anyway... The next scene, the King discovers that Miharu went to the village and punish her, locking her inside her room. Then... She calls me, her best friend, Juliana (the stupid name Jin invented) to go speak with her from the other side of the door.
Miharu: My friend Juliana... Please do me a favour.
Me: Anything!
Miharu: Be at midnight at the main square of the village. There, you'll find the man I love. Tell him that I am sorry for not being there and give him this letter.
She passed me a letter under the door.
Me: I'll do that, trust me. I'll find that man and-
Lee appears on the stage in a jump.
Lee: Eheh... So- Sorry!
And he disappears again.
Lee's voice: WHY DID YOU DO THAT?!
Me: Ahem... I'LL FIND THAT MAN and give him the letter. Don't worry.
The next scene...
Me (dressed in the same cloak Miharu was wearing): Are you the man that turned on the Princess' heart?
Steve: I guess... Where is the Princess? Something happened?
Me (handing the paper to Steve): She is fine. But she couldn't come. She gave me this letter for me to give you.
Steve: Thank you.
Me: Hum... I just want to say that... You should be careful... The King will not aprove this...
Steve: I know... I will be careful... Thanks.
Steve leaves and I turn to get back to the castle (castle?) when... Hwoarang, the thief, appears and grabs me by the arms.
Me: Aaaaahhhh! Let me go!
Hwoarang: I have you now, Princess!
Me: I'm not the Princess!
Hwoarang: Smart, aren't you?
Me: Let me go!
Jin shows up with a fake sword on his hand.
Jin: Leave her!
Hwoarang: Ah ah! The Prince came to save his little sister!
Jin: She's not my sister!
Hwoarang: What's wrong with you? You think you can fool me with that conversation?! I'm clever than you!
Me (taking off the cloak): I told you, I wasn't the Princess!
Hwoarang (letting me go): Woa! Oh! You will pay for this!
He picks his fake sword and threats Jin.
Jin: I've been waiting for you Obi Wan!
Hwoarang: Hey! That's not in the script!
Jin: I know! I was just kidding.
Hwoarang: Hey man! Don't do that! Now I'm confused!
Me (whispering): Go on!
Hwoarang (whispering): I don't know what to do now!
Me (whispering): The fight!
Hwoarang: Oh right! .......... Diiiiiiieeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And they fight! In a so realistic fight! Paul, the other thief appears to help Hwoarang. And they still capture me instead of the Princess, telling that the Prince would give them money for me. Then we go to Miharu talking with her mother Annalesca... The next part is the furious King speaking to his adviser. Steve telling his sister to find Miharu and tell her to meet him again at the same place the next night. Miharu worried about her friend. And finally, Jin coming to save me. Well, what can I say... Jin wins and the thieves go away (how unfair!) Now... The worst part of the play.... The part when I have to... kiss... Jin... For saving me...! (I swear I will shoot the one who made this change! It was not supposed to be like this! But they added this insignificant part just before we start the play!)
The next part is about Steve and Miharu meeting with Christie watching if anyone is coming...
Steve: I missed you, my Princess...
Miharu: Oh, Steven...
They kiss.
Christie: Someone coming is! Huh, I mean... Coming is someone! Damn! SOMEONE IS COMING! Ah... sorry...
What the nerves do to us... Well, who was coming was the King who watched them together and ordered his guards to arrest Steven who was going to die. Then we see Steve again on the main square where he was going to be hanged.
Miharu (freeing Steve's neck): STOP! Don't kill him!
Lee: How dare you?!
Miharu: Father! I love him!
Lee: What?! You are a Princess! He is... is.... is... is... a... is a...
Anna (whispering): An ordinary boy who lives in the village.
Lee: Oh! An ordinary boy who lives in the village!
Anna (whispering): And has no nothing to live from.
Lee: And has nothing to live from.
Anna (whispering and giggling): And is a asshole.
Lee: And is an assho- HEY!
Miharu: Humm.... Yes! He may be all that, but I love him!
Steve (in a low voice): I'm not like that...
Miharu: I'm sorry father, but... I choose Steven!
Jin (talking to me and Hwoarang): And this was made by us... How hilarious!
Hwoarang: Hey! That's not on the script! I told you not to do that!
Jin: Man... Calm down!
Meanwhile, Miharu and Steve run away from the kingdom and live happier ever after! Sniff.... How romantic!
Hwoarang: How do you want me to calm down if you keep confusing me with the speeches!?
Jin: It's not my fault you are such a maniac!
Hwoarang: HEY! Watch your mouth with me!
Jin:But it's the truth!
Hwoarang: It is not!
Me: Shut up you two!
The end! I don't know how, but people loved it! The room was full! Guess... We are great authors and actors... Naaaaaaa!!!!!!!! I looked over at the teachers: Kazuya was hiding his face behind his hands... I think he was laughing! Jun was cleaning her eyes from the tears. Heihachi was... sleeping... Nina, her arms crossed, her face bored. Lei Wulong applauding lively. Marduk, laughing hard and Violet... motionless... Baek, applauding next to... My... Mother?! (sigh)
In the end, Christie came to speak with me...
Christie: Julia, can I speak with you?
Me: Sure!
Christie: It's about me and Steve... He and... I.... We...
Me: Wait! Are you going to tell me what I think you are going to tell me?
Christie (looking away): I guess...
Me: Oh my God!
Christie: It's just that... Steve is avoiding me... But it passed years since that day...
Me: Do you like him?
Christie: As a friend, yes! Not more than that, but... I know he is avoiding me, I know!
Me: Why don't you try speak with him, just to clear the things between you two?
Christie: You think he would listen?
Me: Of course he would!
Christie: Thanks Julia!
Then... Steve came to speak with me...
Steve: Hey Julia! That went pretty well, huh?
Me: Oh yeah! Specially the part when Jin and Hwoarang were almost killing each other at the fighting part!
Steve (laughing): Yeah! But, I guess we all did great, right?
Me: We did!
Steve: Ah! Come on, give me a hug!
That Steve is so funny! Now, the trouble...
Jin: Julia... I... have to...
I must confess, I found that pretty strange but... Jin...?
Me: Yes?
Jin: I don't know how to tell you this... Is something that I've been realizing in the past few days...
It all happened so fastly that I felt a little numb... He kissed me on the lips! And the worst, was that Xiaoyu watched all that!
Xiaoyu: Jin... Julia...
Me (breaking the kiss): Xiaoyu!
She, then, ran away. I looked at Jin, he was spechless... I had no other choice than to slap his cheek. I know I did wrong! I'm feeling bad about it... Poor Jin... But... He DESERVED THAT! But... You know...? I think the kiss wasn't that bad... WHAT AM I WRITING?! And Xiaoyu? How is she feeling right now? Damn!!!!!!!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Wow! I don't know what I've done! I wasn't thinking about putting Jin kissing Julia, but I guess... I had to put it this way because of the further chapters I'm thinking to write! So, I hope you don't mind...
Ok... Until the next chapter! I don't know when I will be able to update again... Too much homework and so many things to study... Oh! Enough with the drama!
Bye! I love you all!
Thank you for the reviews!
