Ok, and welcome to the production of JULIUS…UZUMAKI! I had this idea because of a kid in my language class…unfortunately I only have enough patience to do one act and one scene: ACT THREE SCENE ONE….the dramatic scene where Caesar is murdered…so, now that we've got the cast list…let's begin the show…I am Riyo Lee and I will be your director this evening…I want you all to enjoy my parody of Caesar… please enjoy! And feel free to review…
-Caesar, Brutus, Cassius, Casca, Decius, Metellus, Trebonius, Cinna, Antony, Artemidorus, Publius and Popilius all enter-
Caesar: The Ides of March have come!
Fortune Teller: Yes Caesar but they have not gone.
Artemidorus: -comes up to Caesar holding a piece of paper- Caesar, read this…it's the note of the list of people who are trying to ki-
-Riyo runs in-
Riyo: CUT! Kakashi, you're not supposed to tell him what it says! You're supposed to lie and say it's a schedule you want him to look at!
Artemidorus: But then he won't read it…
Riyo: -sighs- But that's the way it goes…Redo that line, please… -walks offstage-
Artemidorus: Caesar, read this.
Decius: Caesar, Cho- I mean Trebonius wants you to read THIS when you get the chance. –holds up a paper-
Artemidorus: Read mine first. It has great importance to you personally.
Caesar: -looks at Artemidorus- Things that are important to me I will read last. –sash falls off of his costume- Riyo, these costumes suck!
Riyo: -yells from offstage- Deal with it! We're on a tight budget! Just fix it and keep going!
Artemidorus: -looks back at Caesar- ok…please read this now.
Caesar: What, are you crazy!
Riyo: -from offstage again- STOP KILLING MY DAILOUGE NARUTO!
Caesar: -sighs- fine…what, is the man mad?
Publius: -monotone voice- Fellow, get out of the way.
Riyo: -offstage- MORE EMOTIONS, SHINO! Jeez! What, haven't you people ever ACTED before?
Publius: ok….Fello, get out of the way!
Cassius: What, are you asking for favors right in the street? Come inside.
-Caesar enters the building with all his followers. One of them steps on his costume and rips the sash off again-
Caesar: -growls- Riyo, I can't work like this!
Riyo: -offstage- Fix it somehow! I told you we're on a tight budget! Just continue with the play, Naruto!
Popilius: I wish your business today may have good success.
Cassius: -glances around slightly- What business?
Popilius: Farewell. –walks to Caesar and starts a conversation-
Brutus: -leans to Cassius- What did he say?
Cassius: He wishes that our business today will succeed. I'm afraid we may be discovered.
Brutus: Cassius, be strong hearted. He doesn't speak of our plans. Caesar seems unmoved.
-Riyo walks in, looking more than slightly annoyed-
Riyo: You two just cut out lines….
Cassius: So? It's shorter now. I just want to stab Naruto.
Brutus: -nods her head- Yup.
Riyo: -sighs and walks offstage- Fine…just don't do it anymore…Continue!
Cassius: -sighs- Alright…Trebonius knows the right moment; see, he's taking Antony away.
-Antony and Trebonius exit-
Decius: -looks around- Where is Metellus Cimber? Have him go present his request to Caesar now.
Brutus: He's ready. Go support him.
Cinna: Casca, you stab him first.
Caesar: -holding his sash on his shoulder with a scowl- Okay, what do you all want me to do?
Riyo: -holds her head- Why did I become their director? Why?
Metellus: -goes up to Caesar- Most high, mighty Caesar. I kneel humbly before you.
Riyo: -now sitting on a chair on the left side of the stage- You need to BOW, Neji.
Metellus: -shakes his head- Not to him.
Caesar: -glares at him- Get on your knees, Neji!
Riyo: DO IT NOW!
Metellus: -sighs and gets on his knees-
Caesar: I need to cut you off, Metellus. Don't think these petty gestures will get to me. I do only what I think is right and just.
Riyo: -is now crying- He just cut a huge speech into three sentences….
Metellus: -stands back up- Is there anyone better than me to ask that you recall my brother from exile?
Riyo: -throws her book and script- I give up.
Brutus: -kneels in front of Caesar and kisses his hand- I kiss your hand not to flatter you, but to ask that Publius Cimber may be recalled from exile.
Caesar: What, Brutus?
Cassius: -glances at Riyo, who is once again crying- Man….this is only so her show doesn't bomb, Naruto…You've ruined it enough. –sighs and bows in front of Caesar- Pardon, Caesar. Cassius bows down as low as your foot to beg a reprieve for Publius Cimber.
Caesar: I could be persuaded, if I were a man like you. I am as unchanging as the North Star. I was firn that Cimber was banished, and remain firm for hi to remain banished.
Cinna: Oh, Caesar-
Caesar: Away with you! Will you attempt the impossible?
Decius: Great Caesar-
Caesar: Don't you see Brutus kneeling in vain? –gestures down to Brutus-
Casca: Let mine hands speak for me! –stabs Caesar, along with everyone else; Brutus hesitates for a moment then stabs him-
Caesar: And you too, Brutus? Then it is time for Caesar to faaaaaaaaaaaall –stumbles backwards and falls off the edge of the stage-
Cinna: Liberty! Freedom! Tyranny is dead! Run from here, proclaim, cry it about the streets!
Cassius: Let some go to the public speaking-platforms and cry out, "Liberty, Freedom, and the end of slavery!"
Caesar: -on the ground in front of the stage- Little help here, people!
Cassius: -chucks his sword over the edge of the stage- Shut up, Loser! You're DEAD, remember?
Caesar: Oh yeah! –falls back to the ground motionless-
-curtain drops unceremoniously-
Ok, thus ends the great Naruto Caesar. Please review and tell me what you think of this story. Domo arigato!
