[/size]Ahem...
I have been called upon to write Summer 2011's Anime and Manga Club play, and the problem is... I have no ideas for a plot! I drafted three opening scenes, so, based upon those, could you pleasepleaseplease give me a hand. Once again, this is doomed to be a musical, XD
Don't blame me for that, though. Everyone loves a good musical.
Idea no. 1 has Cornwall in it.
IDEA THE FIRST;;
[/u][/center]Scene opens. Axis headquarters. GERMANY is sitting at his desk, N. ITALY stood beside him. JAPAN is sitting on the desk, and S. ITALY is off to one side of the stage, facing away from the others with his arms folded, glaring at the audience. There is a map of the world on the wall behind them, which CORNWALL is standing at, putting pins in to.
N. ITALY (cheerful):
Germany! Germany! Can we get pas~ta?
GERMANY (seemingly to himself):
Ugh... I never thought the others essential: they're crude, and unspeakably plain (CORNWALL turns to look at him). But... maybe they've some potential... if allied to my vision and brain...
JAPAN is now looking at him, fascinated. N. ITALY looks somewhat offended, or he appears thus. CORNWALL is now standing behind GERMANY, and even S. ITALY looks vaguely interested. He rapidly snaps out of it, though.
S. ITALY (darkly sarcastic):
What do you want us to do, kill England?
CORNWALL (darkly):
I could do that. I've wanted to get rid of Pow Sows (England) for a long time now.
GERMANY (smirking and resting his chin on his elbow):
Precisely...
S. ITALY stares at GERMANY as though he has gone completely insane. He then moves to stand beside N. ITALY, seeing that GERMANY HAS gone insane. Cornwall, on the other side, looks fascinated. JAPAN slides off the desk and stares at CORNWALL.[/i]
GERMANY darkly; singing. Here beings the cliche:
Now, I know that your powers of retention,
Are as wet as a warthog's backside...
(He goes over to N. ITALY, who is staring absent-mindedly off in to space. S. ITALY moves protectively closer to his younger brother.)
But thick as you are...
PAY ATTENTION!
(As he says this, he slaps N. ITALY across the face. The smaller man squeaks and rubs his cheek. S. ITALY protectively wraps his arms around him and glares fiercely at GERMANY.)
CORNWALL:
How tacky. Disney references.
GERMANY (ignoring her):
My words are a matter of pride...
(He looks over N. ITALY, who now looks quite happy. S. ITALY is still protecting him, however.)
It's clear from your vacant expressions,
That the lights are not... all on upstairs.
But we're talking kings and successions -
Even you can't be caught unawares.
(As he approaches N. ITALY and S. ITALY, he pushes N. ITALY over. He nearly falls off the stage, but S. ITALY catches him. [Note to director: Germany could just push him over. We'll work on that when we get there, though.])
So prepare for a chance of a lifetime;
Be prepared for sensational news!
A shinig new era,
Is tip-toeing neare-
CORNWALL (cutting in):
And where do we feature?
GERMANY:
Just listen to teacher.
I know it sounds sordid
But you'll be rewarded
When at last I am given my dues
And injustice deliciously squared
Be prepared!
N. ITALY:
Yeah, we'll be prepared! Heh-heh... Uhh... For what?
GERMANY (too proud for his own good):
For the death of England.
JAPAN:
Why? Is he... sick?
GERMANY:
No, fool. We're gonna kill him. And America too.
JAPAN:
Oh. Right.
CORNWALL:
Hey, great idea! Who needs a Leader anyway?! (She draws a small knife from up her sleeve.)
N. ITALY (laughing):
No England, no England, la-la-la-la-la-la! (GERMANY buries his head in his hands.)
GERMANY (muffledly):
No, idiot. There will be a leader.
CORNWALL (puts her knife back up her sleeve):
But... you said...
GERMANY (exasperated):
I will be Leader!
Stick with me, and you'll never go hungry again!
CORNWALL:
Yay! Alright! Long live the Leader!
CORNWALL, N. ITALY, JAPAN and S. ITALY:
Long live the Leader! Long live the Leader!It's great that we'll soon be connected.
With a king who'll be all-time adored.
GERMANY (smirking darkly):
Of course, quid pro quo, you're expected,
To take certain duties on board:
The future is littered with prizes,
And though I'm the main addressee,
The point that I must emphasize is...
(Yelled.)You won't get a sniff without me!
So prepare for the coup of the century;
Be prepared for the murkiest scam
Meticulous planning
Tenacity spanning
Decades of denial
Is simply why I'll
Be king undisputed
Respected, saluted
And seen for the wonder I am
Yes, my teeth and ambitions are bared
Be prepared!
ALL:
Yes, our teeth and ambitions are bared[/size]
Be prepared!
