Chapter One: View Make a Me CrazyThe ogre Bolbox awakens from his slumber
BOLBOX- *Yawn.
BOLBOX-Ah, what a beautiful morning!
BOLBOX- I have everything I need. My comfy cave, plenty of animals to hunt and my beautiful mountain...
BOLBOX- ...view?
BOLBOX- What the #%$& is that doing there!? That castle wasn't there a second ago. That big eyesore is blocking my perfect view.
BOLBOX- Grrrrr that's it. I'm gonna pay my new castle neighbors a visit.
MEANWHILEIn the throne room of the new castle Blockview...
KING NIXON- This new castle should suit me nicely, Jexler. JEXLER- Yes your highness. It's much better than the one you have near the seashore. I never liked the flow of that castle. The feng shui was all off.
JEXLER- This one on the other hand screams party! KING NIXON- My thoughts precisely my chowderheaded chum. The queen will love this. Oh Brevita.
QUEEN BREVITA- You beckoned me, my love? KING NIXON- Quite right my buxom beauty. I have a mind to throw an ostentatious party to celebrate our new castle and to show off my greatness to the local rabble.
QUEEN BREVITA- That sounds like a pleasant diversion, Sire. I shall help in the preparations. KING NIXON- See that you do my dear. For tonight we shall party like it's 999!
SOME TIME LATER IN THE VILLAGE BELOW
KLINK- Hear ye, Hear ye!
KLINK- By pronouncement of the great King Nixon, the lord of the new castle Blockview, I expand to you an invitation. KLANK- Expand? Don't you mean you extend an invitation, Klink?
KLINK- Look here Klank. It says "expand to you an invitation." I only read what is written.
KLANK- Expand an invitation? Well that's not very good English now ain't it tho? KLINK- You should talk. Besides, it's not as though the king has a spell checker. He wrote it on a blasted scroll! Now bugger off and let me make my pronouncification.
KLINK- Uh Hmm, As I was saying everyone. His glorious highness King Nixon is throwing a celebration and you are all invited.
MOOM- What's all this about anyway? This castle just appears out of nowhere today and now the King wants us to celebrate about it? KLINK- Who might you be m'lady? Besides lovely beyond compare.
MOOM- Don't make eyes at me like that. The name's Moom. I own the local tavern and help run this market.
KLINK- I loves a woman with brains. I am Klink, first guard of the court of Blockview castle. This here is my daft mate Klank. Pay him no mind. KLANK- I am second guard. That is until he gets run through or is sacked. KLINK- Clam it Klank! Not in front of the lady.
MOOM- What's in it for us if we go to this party? KLINK- Plenty of pomp and circumstance, some speeches from his royal highness and the distinguished company of yours truly.
TOWNS PEOPLE- *groan... KLANK- Oh and don't forget, all the mead you can drink!
TOWNS PEOPLE- What time shall we be there?
JUST THENhidden in the shadows...
BOLBOX- So this King Nixon of the new castle Blockview is throwing a party, is he?
BOLBOX- I think I better shine my dancing boots. Hehehe.
BOLBOX- And what are you looking at cow? Go milk yourself "Bessie!" I have a party to crash.
BOLBOX- Typical. END CHAPTER ONE |
