Act 1, Scene 1:
Cast:
Asius (Majordomo)
Alcestris (Cook)
(A kitchen, looking suspiciously like the kitchen in the Tyrant's Citadel. A bit of half-kneaded dough is sitting on the counter, and Asius is looking around bemusedly.)
Asius: Alcestris! Where did you go? This Dough's in need of kneading! Where did you go?
Voice: Help me! Help me! A ratlizard's trying to eat me!
*BANG*
Enter stage TOP: The Broom
*the broom dances beside the counter for a few steps*
Enter stage Right: Alcestris
Asius: Oh! There you are!
Alcestris: Kill it! Kill it! Kill the horrible creature!
*she grabs the broom's handle and flings it against the wall*
*a ratlizard stumbles out of the twigs, an uncouth bug in its mouth*
Alcestris: EEEEEEK!
Asius: Smash it!
*dives majestically at the ratlizard, which nimbly dodges*
Asius: Dash it!
*leaps to his feet, and pursues the ratlizard in circles*
Alcestris (holding cleavers): Dice it! *clash* Slice it! *shming* Chop *crash* It *smash* Up in lit-tle bits! *chops rapidly at the ratlizard*
*Asius stumbles back, clutching his foot, and yaoling*
Asius: AAAHHHH!
*the ratlizard blanches, and dives out the open back door*
Exit stage BACK: Ratlizard
(Alcestris hums quietly to herself as she re-commences kneading, and Asius limps painfully out the door)
Exit stage RIGHT: Asius
*curtain* *bows*
