Children Of The Knight: Season 2
Episode 2: The Crash
Scene 1
(Scene opens on the plane to Los Angeles. All the bandos are tired from the already long journey. Suddenly, the cabin shakes.)
Captain: Sorry about the turbulence folks. I've just been told that with the rising gas prices, we couldn't fill up our tanks and now we're flying on fumes. Don't worry though, we'll have a nice soft landing in the middle of the ocean.
(The students and chaperones panic and everyone starts screaming. The plane begins spiraling downward. The plane crashed into the Pacific and everyone uses their floaty devices. They see an island in the distance. A dramatic scene ensues of the band swimming for land as a pack of sharks start chasing them. Inevitably some kids are eaten (mostly freshmen). The rest reach land. After everyone's caught their breath, they start noticing where they are and that people are missing and everyone starts to panic again. Then someone stands up.)
Nicole: EVERYONE. QUIET. We need to take stock of our situation. Get in marching formation and stand in mountain pose.
(The band lines up and Nicole, Brittany and Tasha (the DRUM MAJORS) talk amongst themselves as they stroll up and down the ranks.)
Brit: Looks Like we're lost a few people.
Tasha: Good, the less we'll have to deal with.
Nicole: Tasha! (Turning to band.) Okay. We've lost quite a few people. All the adults seem to be missing. We've also lost quite a few students. We only have about 70 people now.
(All the kids start talking at once. Some crying, some just yelling. Britt pulls out her magical whistle and calls everyone to attention.)
Britt: EVERYONE CHILL OUT! We need to be calm about this. We need each other now. I need you, you need me. We're all apart of this so we need to work together.
Nicole: Britt's right. Now, we all need assignments. Flutes and Clarinets can go scavenging for fruit and fresh water sources. Saxes, you're on hunting duty. Sharpen sticks and look out for animals or seafood. Guard, you are all in charge of making rain catchers to make sure we have some fresh water. Brass, you go make shelters. Make as many as you can. Drummers, you're in charge of getting kindling for a large bonfire tonight and for a rescue fire that must stay burning at all times.
Scotty: Um...Nicole....what's kindling?
Nicole: (Sighs) It's wood to burn Scotty. (She pats him on the head and sends him off). Drummers.
(Everyone runs off. The pit stands still until Nicole finally notices them.)
Nicole: Oh....pit....yeah....you guys....just do what you want.
(Pit runs into the jungle)
Aimee: They always forget about us.
Kathy: That's because we don't do anything Aimee.
Aimee: True, but still. ...He Kathy, does this remind you of Lord of the Flies at all?
Kathy: Ahhh....yes. That's really creepy. Who do you think is going to die first?
Aimee: I'm just worried about what the guys will do since they have girls now instead of pigs.
Kathy: (shudders) I think we should stay very very far away from the drummers then.
