Characters:
Mark
Kyra
Sila
Andy
Grace
Leo
Andy: [in a British accent] Hark! This play hath begun!
Kyra: [leans in towards Mark, Sila, Leo, and Grace and whispers] What is he doing?
Sila: Do we really want to know?
Andy: [British] This is the theater, the heart of art, drama, and sophistication.
Mark: What about comedies?
Andy: [normally] Does this look like a comedy?
Grace: [holding up a piece of paper] Judging by the script, this is trying to be funny.
Leo: [suspiciously raises eyebrows] Is it working?
Mark: [snatches script out of Grace’s hands before she can answer] The title says, “Breaking the Third Wall.” How do we do that? We literally only exist on this piece of paper! We also have no walls!
Sila: [facepalms]
Kyra: Gimme that. [steals script from Mark and starts writing on it by putting the paper on Mark’s back]
Mark: Kyra is always right and is infinitely superior to myself. [slaps hand over mouth] What have you done?!
Kyra: [smirks and stands arms akimbo] Made you say something I agree with, for once.
Leo: [tiptoes up to Kyra, takes script, and begins to write]
Mark: [punches himself]
Leo: Stop hitting yourself!
Mark: [punches himself, again]
Leo: Stop hitting yourself!
Sila: [disdainfully] You have so much power, and this is what you’re doing?
Leo and Kyra: [simultaneously nods] Yup!
Grace: [skips over and plucks the script from Leo’s hands] Sila’s right! [starts writing]
Sila: Thank you!
Mark: [singing] What did you do? Gah! Why am I singing?
Grace: [singsong] It’s part of the script!
Andy: I think we should stop. What if this is a curse rather than a gift?
Mark: [tugging at script and singing] I think it’s my turn!
Sila: [tugging back] Like we trust you! After all, it’s my turn! I can actually use this for good, not pranks!
Andy: Guys?
Grace: Are we playing tug-of-war? Fun! [starts tugging]
Leo: I could make it rain money!
Andy: Guys!
Kyra: [tugs hard] I was the one who discovered this; I deserve this!
[script rips]
Everyone: [but Mark sings] AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!
Author’s note:
So yeah, you can use your imagination to decide what happened to them. Are they free from the script or have the extinguished all life? Let me know in the comments below!
They are free from the script. Mark needs to stop singing lol
ReplyDeleteIf he's dead he'll also stop singing... XD
DeleteI've made my own haiku, and they're kinda restricting. I loved this story! Although everyone needs to leave poor Mark alone! :P
