Author's ramble: Sorry for depressing ya'll with that last scene. This scene is a lot less depressing, more action-packed, and furthers the plot along. Yes, there actually is a plot. :) On with the show. Oh and thanks again for the reviews!! :D I'm changing the Rating to PG, just in case, since this scene is a bit powerful and violent (in speech only).
Remember: bold=singing, italics=speaking parts within the song and shouts from the crowd (outside of the song).
Act III, Scene III:
Several parents, teachers, and students are standing outside the school,
shouting about needing action to be taken to protect their children and their
town from the mutant monsters known as the X-men. Everyone agrees, but are
unsure of what they should do. Suddenly, a white-haired man with a deep voice,
introducing himself only as "Eric", steps out from the crowd and
speaks to them.
Eric: The filthy mutants have been revealed and now they need to be
exterminated, to be eliminated from our world! (YEAH!) They've
lived here amongst us in our town. (YEAH!) They went to
school with our children. (YEAH!) They are a threat to
humanity! (YEAH!) We must act on them before they act on us!
(YEAH!!) We cannot let them hide anymore. We must hunt them down! (YEAH!)
They're Freaks! (YEAH! FREAKS! FREAKS!)
Human Mob Song (to tune of "Mob Song" from "Beauty and the Beast")
[Eric:] The freaks will come and hurt your children
[Mob:] {gasp}
[Eric:] They'll come after them in the night.
[Taryn:] No!
[Eric:] We're not safe till they're all found and destroyed. I say we kill those freaks!
[Mob:] Kill them!
[Man I:] We're not safe until they're gone
[Man II:] They'll be attacking us at night
[Woman:] Setting out to hurt us all
And to fill our lives with fright
[Man III:] They're a menace to us humans
We can't leave them loose in town
[Eric:] So it's time to take some action, now
It's time to hunt them down
In our streets
In our homes
In our schools and in our city
They are hiding but they're possible to find
Everywhere
They are there
They are waiting to attack us
And they have something very horrible in mind
They're mutants
They've got pow'rs
Very strong ones
That they use
And abuse to hurt us
Hear them scream
See them run
But we can't have our fun
'Til they're dead
Good and dead
Kill the freaks!
[Taryn:] But what if some of them are good?
[Eric:] How can you tell? They're all a danger to us! They have powers!
[Paul:] But maybe not all of them!
[Eric:] Are you protecting one of them? Are you a Mutant lover?!
[Taryn:] No, we're not!
[Eric:] Then out of our way. Who's with me?
[Mob:] We are! We are! We are!
Get your guns
Get your cars
[Eric:] Let your anger show upon your face
[Mob:] We're counting on this man to lead the way
In our streets
In our homes
Where within this very city
Mutants living with us normies everyday
They are freaks
Who knows what horrors they can do
We won't rest
'Til they're found and destroyed
On our way
Let us go
Grab your gun
Grab your knives
Get yourself ready, here we go
[Eric:] We'll find all those mutant freaks and kill them all.
[Taryn:] Oh no! What are they doing? This is bad...real bad, They're gonna go on a killing spree.
[Paul:] Well, what if they're right though?
[Mob:] We don't like
What we don't understand
In fact it scares us
And these mutants are mysterious indeed
Bring your guns
Bring your knives
Save your children and your wives
We'll save our city and our lives
We'll kill the freaks!
[Boy 1:] I knew it! I knew it those kids were really weird.
[Boy 2:] Yeah but Mutants...who would have thought that. It's so weird.
[Girl 1:] That's so true!
[Boy 2:] But wow Scott!? Jean!?
[Boy 1:] They're our friends
[Girl 1] You mean they were our friends!
[Boy 1:] They never hurt us though, they were always way nice and everything. They helped us a lot too.
[Eric:] Are you kids doubting what you saw them do? They're Mutant Freaks!
[Kids:] We're confused
What to do
We don't know what to be thinking
About the good friends we've known and hung out with
[Mob:] Make your stand
Decide now
Stand with us and you'll be strong
That tape we saw can't be wrong
Let's kill the freaks!
[Girl 1:] What you think Duncan?
[Duncan:] Leave me alone.
[Girl 1] But dude! Jean's one of those mutants!
[Mob:] Kill the freaks!
Kill the freaks!
[Boy 2:] I just don't know!
[Girl 2:] Oh man, we've got to decide something!
[Boy 2:] But it's hard!
[Mob:] Kill the freaks!
Kill the freaks!
[Girl 1:] What should we do, Duncan?
[Duncan:] I don't care about her anymore. Let's go get 'em.
[Mob:] Kill the freaks!
Kill the freaks!
Kill the freaks!
(They all go get their weapons and things to get ready for an attack against Mutants, their first targets being, of course, the ones they learned about that day, the X-men.)
