Chapter 2, Fair Verona
Then he woke up in a nearly pitch black room in his bed, Jess wasn't there. He left the building and went to the forest to be alone. To think of where the hell he was. Very confused he was, he was trying to figure things out.
James and Lily Potter (They represent the Montagues.) were standing in the castle courtyard conversing infront of a stone fountain, the gate twenty feet behind them. Benvolio (Percy Weasley) walked out from the gates and joined the two. All of them began to talk about where Romeo (Harry Potter) is, and why he was acting odd.
( I'm not going to go by the script because I don't know it. Just basing it off the story. But I am going to have them speak in old english tongue the best I can. There might be some parts missing because I know I might forget something. Of course it's based on the play, but it's based a little on the Franco Seferelli (SP) movie.)
"Benvolio, doth thee know where thy Romeo be?" Lady Potter asked.
"Sorry m'lady, but doth not know where he be." he answered.
Then Harry began to walk over the horizon towards them.
"There is thy fair Romeo!" Benvolio said excitedly.
Both Lady and Lord Potter looked in Harry's direction.
"Well please do thy favor and ask where he be." Lord Potter said.
"Yes, m'lord. Thy will ask. Thee will tell I."
The Potters left and went back inside of the castle. Benvolio sat on the edge of the fountain and began to whistle. Looking like he hadn't seen Harry coming.
Harry Potter was now at the fountain looking everywhere around him.
Why does this seem so familiar? This is screwed up.
"Hello cuz! Where have thy been?" Benvolio asked.
"Is it really your business where or what I do. Percy, are you on crack? I'm not your cousin!" Harry yelled.
"Doth need not yell. You must have eaten something most foul. For you deny being thy cousin. And what is this crack thy speaks of? Who is Percy? Thy name is Benvolio."
Harry looked like he was going to faint.
"Benvolio? I'm in the play! Um, I was in the forest thinking about a girl."
Oh crap, I've gotta try and talk weird like they do. And act out what ever part I have.
"Romeo, was thy girl Roseline?"
"Um, yea. The girl was her. How...foul and evil she was."
"Well come you must to Lord Malfoy's ball. Thy ladies will be more fair then thy Roseline could have ever been. Thee evil winch."
The Malfoy's? They must be the Capulets. But I wonder...
"Yes, thy will come to thee ball."
"O happy day. Mercutio (Ron Weasley) will be oh so happy of thy news!"
Juliet (Jessabelle Brooks), was sitting on her bed talking to Dobby the house elf (The nurse).
"Aren't thee excited about the ball tonight, m'lady?" Dobby spoke.
"I suppose. But thee doesn't know. Tis a happy day, but thee has a bad feeling about thy night."
"Everything will be fine, child. Thy mother calls! Juliet come!"
Dobby went scampering out the door. Juliet hopped off her bed and followed after him. He led her to a dressing room. Where servents were dressing and preparing Lady Malfoy.
"M'lady," Juliet curtsied "what doth thee want?"
"Can't thee talk to thy Lord's daughter? Thee is getting near thy age, thy Juliet is growing up so fast. And thy son twould like to marry thee. Could thee try to love thy Paris (Draco Malfoy)?"
"Lady, doth not know about this. Could thee think about this? Why thee Paris?"
"Are thy not grateful for thy care and offerings! Though thee are not thy daughter, we take care of thy Lord Voltaire's offspring. Like thee own child. So thy asks of you to love thy Paris."
Juliet sighed, "Thee suppose could love thy Paris."
"That is what thy Lady wants to hear!"
Lady Malfoy hugged Juliet.
"Now be off, Juliet. Have thy servents ready you for the festivities of thee ball!"
A dozen of servents escorted Juliet out of the room to hers, and began to prepare her for the ball.
Harry, Mercutio, and Benvolio were walking through the market place. Just to get away from the recent happenings. And to hang out with each other and talk and whatnot.
"So are thee going to snag a lady at thee ball?" Mercutio teased.
"Or is thee still not over that winch Roseline?" Benvolio asked Harry.
"Thee is over her. But thy doth not know. Perhaps."
"Perhaps! PERHAPS?" Mercutio arched a brow. "Thy silly Romeo, thee answer is not perhaps. Thee will get thy lady!"
They began to speak about what kind of lady Harry would like. Benvolio and Mercutio teased him in the process. Still, Harry wondered who Juliet would be. This tortured his mind.
Suddenly Harry got shoved from behind, Benvolio and Mercutio turned around and put their hands on the hilt of their swords. It was Paris, Tybalt (Alex Drexle), and Paris's henchman, Crabbe and Goyle. Paris was eyeing them with a dirty look, and Tybalt had a smirk on his face. Crabbe and Goyle had their fists clenched in their hand.
"Well look who it is. It is thy Potter! Thee must have bumped into thy. Sorry." Paris sneered.
"Shut up thy wretch, Malfoy! Thee will hit thy so hard thy mother will bleed." Mercutio removed his sword.
Benvolio was quiet, but he still had his hand on his hilt.
"Is that so? Can thee back thy word with thy move?"
The Malfoy's removed their swords.
"Mercutio!" Harry reached his hand out to snatch Mercutio "No, don't!"
Mercutio lunged at Paris, and he took a large swipe at him and Paris blocked it. The henchman ran at Harry and Benvolio. Scared, Benvolio removed his sword and blocked a swipe from Crabbe. Goyle tried to strike Harry, but he dodged it and cut Goyle's arm. He ran away crying. Then a mob of Malfoys and Potters began to fight with each other in the market square.
Towns people began to flee and already dozens of Malfoys and Potters lie dead in the street. Then there was the sudden sound of horse hooves beating on the ground. There were two rows of knights on horses, each row had six knights. In the front leading them was King Escalise (SP) (Albus Dumbledor, the prince) as he came about the civil brawl.
He roared, "Everyone, stop thee brawl this instance!"
The Potters and Malfoys stopped fighting and they looked at the king and his knights.
"Who started thy fight?" King Escalise demanded.
"It was thy house of Malfoy, Paris, thy majesty." Harry answered.
The king nodded and smiled at Harry, "Thee dare to disturb thy peace? How dare thy Malfoys! Thy next man to disturb thy towns peace shall be banned from Verona for the rest of thee life! Now everyone return to thy home this instance!"
The king and his knights left and went back to the castle, and the Potters and Malfoys left, carrying the dead bodies of their comrads.
