The Greatest Show Ever 3
A/N: Chapter 3 – very short, but I promise the next one will be much longer. Also I decided not to go AU, so everything in S4-5 happened... but I have an idea for the ending (happy one... What? Don't act surprize! There's a method in this madness!)
I know the story is weird... I tried to write "normal" stuff... You don't want to know the results lol
And of course THANK YOU! You make my day people!
Disclaimer: GG… not mine… Oh, Alexis called… She really isn't that sweet when it comes to her man… So Milo I really think we should keep it quiet ;)
(Opening. The narrator's armchair is empty.)
Rory (off screen): Jess! Come here!
Jess (off screen): You've found him? Where the hell is he!
Rory (off screen, whispering): He's in the closet I think… Hiding…
Jess (off screen, pissed off): Geez! He's a grown up man! Come on out right now!
We hear some muttering, closet opening; the narrator appears suddenly and sits on his chair. He looks terrible, disheveled hair, dirty clothes.
Jess (to Rory): Is he going to sit here all day just looking like crap?
Rory: Shhh you'll make it worse… (to narrator, very gently) Come on, it's something you do the best. That's why you got this job. I know you have some…problems right now, but you have to make this introduction speech.
Narrator just looks at Rory. He's still in a semi catatonic state.
Rory (continuing): You'll just say hello to our audience and introduce tonight's guests and stay here for a while and then you'll go home.
Narrator (looks again at Rory, then very quietly): Hi… bye (storms out)
Jess: Huh. That was quick.
Rory (panicked): So what should we do now? I mean shouldn't we like go after him or call for professional help? Or maybe we should just leave him alone for a while? What if he hurts himself!
Jess (not really listening to Rory's babbling): I guess one thing is sure… He isn't mentally stable…
Rory: Jess! Come on! Should we do the speech ourselves?
Jess: What? No way I'm doing any stupid speech! I don't even remember agreeing to this bullshit in first place!
Rory: I can't do this alone!
Jess: I say we leave.
Rory: What about the audience? We can't just leave… can we?
Jess pulls her by the sleeve of her shirt and they leave. We can still hear Rory protesting a little. Then nothing.
The stage goes completely dark.
A minute later the lights are on again and we see a tiny wicker basket.
Picnic Basket (almost inaudibly): Hello? Anybody's here? Mommy! (tries to hide but quickly comes back) hi I wanted to go but they said I can't and I have to save the show but I don't want to but they said I have to because the girl and the boy left and they used a word that mommy says I can't use because it's not nice and they want me to tell you about my first picnic and I was very happy because the market was boring and then this pretty girl bought me and then people wanted to fight over me but they didn't and me and the girl and a boy with funny hair went to a bridge and I got to carry food for the first time but I don't know if it really was food because it didn't look like food and it stunk but I guess it really was food because the boy with funny hair tried to eat it but I don't think he liked it and the girl was laughing and then they were smiling at each other and I was afraid that they will kiss just like she did with this very very very very very very very tall boy and it's yuck and it's funny because she looked like she could use a ladder but they didn't and they just talked and talked and I got bored and they talked about fountains and about someone called Honeyway but I haven't seen himat the market so I don't know him but I think it's a funny name and then they were just staring at each other and mommy told me that this is what people in love do but I think it's stupid to stare like that because they already knew how they looked like and then we left and I went with the boy with funny hair and he kept me in his closet and then we went to other place and it was hot and sometimes he looked at me and got quiet and sad but I don't think it was because of me and I have to find my mommy. (runs away)
A/N: A friend of family has daughter who talks like this… Man it's annoying :)
