Ben: (trying not to laugh, whispering to Paul) Thatās our job anyways. (to Keaton) Dude, we know what we need to do and what to watch out for although that kind of stuff usually happens to women anyways unless this is another Hangover movie.
Keaton: I havenāt seen any of those yet.
Ben: You should watch the first one. Itās pretty funny.
Keaton: Cool.
Ben: I had an interesting dream last night.
Keaton: I did too. It was about me being on Who Wants to be a Millionaire?
Ben: Did you win any money?
Keaton: (sighing) No. What was yours about?
Ben: I met this beautiful woman but around the time I was about to wake we were in the dark lying there as if we were drunk or dead or something.
Keaton: You were in the dark with some woman? Wow I want a dream like that my dear friend. I donāt ever dream about that kind of stuff even though itās always on my mind and Iām lost in the word of dreams and fantasies. I would love dreams like that seriously. I may be weird or whatever but I do not care. We will march into that castle and that dream my dear friend will come true whether you want it too or not. Iām telling you to be careful what you see in this land of dreams. We traveled so much and so far but the land of dreams is where weāll all end up if you are not careful. Dreams take charge and fall into pieces and never seem to make a bit of sense after we all go for a nap and fall into a slumber of sleep.
Ben: Keaton, Iām going to be honest with you. I didnāt understand anything that you just said.
Keaton: It does make sense you just have to listen to the words that is being said and that comes from my mouth.
Paul: Keaton, youāre a moron. I think we better be going before we waist anymore time just standing here and talking about nothing.
Ben: I agree with Paul.
Paul: Come on then.
(They leave.)
Act 1: Scene 5āA Hall in Magmaās Castle(The band waits to start playing. Romano and Blake walk in, carrying napkins.)
Romano: I want to join the party but I have to work. This isnāt fair. Why do we have to work while they get to have a party?
Blake: I know. This really isnāt fair. They make us serve them and make sure that everythingās perfect for tonight but donāt bother to try and help us.
Romano: This is unfair. We should stop what weāre doing and leaveā¦. See if they care then.
Blake: We should do that. Maybe theyāll feel bad and beg us to come back and let us join the party then, dude.
Romano: We should leave now.
Blake: Yea.
(Leo, Zelda, and the others walk into the room, greeting guest.)
Leo: Thank you, everyone, for coming this evening. I hope that you all have an amazing time tonight. Please enjoy the party. Hope this is worth your time for coming out tonight and feast with us. The servants have prepared enough food for everyone whom I hope feels each and every one of you up; music please?
(The band starts performing.)
Everyone please take a seat. Prince Will, why donāt you sit with me and your dear sister?
Will: Of course, Leo.
Leo: Weāre trying to get rid of the pirate so I set her up with Jeremy. I just want her to leave and never return.
Will: One of her shipmates?
Leo: Of courseā¦. They wonāt let me kill her off so this was the only thing that I could really think to do which to me made more sense than anything else I could come up with.
Ben: (to Ray) The captain? Is that the captain? Sheās actually hereā¦. I mean of course sheās here but I can finallyā¦.
Ray: You need to hurry up. Leo was talking to Jeremy about giving her hand to him.
Ben: Thanks for the heads up, bro. (thinking out loud) I canāt just go up to herā¦. I mean Leoās right there and heāll kill me if he catches me. (shaking his head) Why does this have to be so hard?
Drake: Ben? Oh boy. Leo, Benās here. I believe heās going to start trouble if weāre not too careful. Can I go ahead and throw him out?
Leo: Ben? Leave him alone. Deal with him later, right now just enjoy the party.
Drake: But heās not supposed to be hereā¦. Why arenāt you freaking out? Why are you just going to sit back and let him wonder around here like heās a close friend?
Leo: Trying to keep the peace right now so please just leave it alone, Drake.
Drake: I canātā¦. Knowing heās here is aggravating.
Leo: Heās not causing any trouble so just forget about it. Heās fine. We can let him be for now. Later on you can fight him or kill him or whatever but right now just let him relax.
Drake: I canāt believe how youāre so calm about this.
Leo: Itās what it is.
Drake: I hate this.
Leo: Goā¦. If you want to cause trouble then you can just leave. I donāt want to deal with this right now, pirate. Now just go.
Drake: Fine. Iāll go but I still canāt believe how you could just let him roam around knowing that we hate them anyways.
(Drake leaves.)
Ben: Zelda.
Zelda: (whispering) Weāre not supposed to know each other yet.
Ben: (smiling) This is where weāre supposed to lock eyes right?
Zelda: Something like that and weāre supposed have some kind of chatā¦. Chit-chatā¦. Have any rum on you? They wonāt let me drink.
Ben: Sorry not with me.
Zelda: (laughing) What kind of man are you? No rum? Really?
Ben: (also laughing) Youāre something else.
Zelda: Of courseā¦. Iām a pirate girl what do you expect?
Olivia: Zelda, Magma needs to see you.
Ben: They donāt give her rum?
Olivia: She usually sneaks it into the castle. Sheās not supposed to have it but she manages to get it anyways. I think she has Ray go and get some for her but Iām assuming sheās out if she told you that they donāt have any rum or let her having any rum for that matter.
Ben: That sounds like Zelda.
Paul: Hey, man, what you been up too?
Ben: Just had a small conversation with the captain.
Leo: Thank you everyone for coming but Iām afraid the partyās over so leaveā¦. Now!
(Everyone leaves except for Zelda and Olivia.)
Zelda: You seen me talk with Ben?
Olivia: You told him that they donāt let you have rum?
Zelda: Of courseā¦. What kind of people donāt like rum? I mean come on you have to beā¦. Well youā¦. Not to enjoy the taste of the drink.
Olivia: I think itās for the weak who just want to avoid lifeās troubles instead of just dealing with it.
Zelda: (eyeing Olivia) Whatās that supposed to mean?
Olivia: Youāre avoiding lifeā¦. Like when Ryoko died and your parents.
Zelda: (ticked off) Leave them out of thisā¦. Besides this is supposed to be a happy momentā¦. Youāre ruining my happy moment.
Olivia: Like I really even care?
Zelda: Youāre supposed to careā¦. Youāre supposed to be my nurse remember?
Olivia: I hate you.
(They leave.)
Act 2: Prologue(Zelda walks back out onto the stage, smiling at the audience.)
Zelda: How are you guys enjoying the story so far? Is anyone lost? So anyways weāre going to be picking up some time before the balcony scene but thatās the second scene in this act I believe. Anyways yea so now Iā¦. I mean my character has met with Benās character. Notice I say characterās because Iām not usingā¦.
Olivia: (walking out onto the stage) How long are you going to keep this up?
Zelda: Olivia, you keep ruining my narrating!
Olivia: Well thatās because youāre ruining the whole storyline.
Zelda: Iām only fixing it to where itās more appropriate and the ending isnāt going to be that death scene. (to the audience, raising her hand) Who else thought the ending was disappointing? See? Even the audience agrees. Now anyways time to continue with the story.
(Zelda and Olivia leave.)
Act 2: Scene 1āSomewhere outside of the castle(Ben wonders over by a gate.)
Ben: Man, I need to find Zelda again. (looking around) Oh boy. Well I guess thereās only one way.
(Ben works his way over the gate. Keaton and Paul appear.)
Paul: Ben! Oh, Ben!
Keaton: He ditched us, man. I told ya he would after we left that party earlier.
Paul: I seen him come this wayā¦. At least I thought I seen him come this way.
Keaton: Chasing dreams? Ben! Come back here! Weāre going to leave you behind if you donāt come back here any time soon! Okay?! I guess he could careless then.
Paul: Youāre an idiot.
Keaton: Power to the ice cream cone!
Paul: (shaking his head) That doesnāt even make any sense.
Keaton: Iām bored.
Paul: Good for you.
Keaton: We should probably just leave and come back later.
Paul: Yea I agree.
(They leave.)
