This is the play for the Gnomercon event. I'll be doing the murloc and princess roles while Mibius is set to be the King, and Lightlfash to be the Narrator.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Narrator: This is a tale from a time long passed. A tale from an enchanted land far away. The King who ruled over this land had but one daughter. The Princess was known throughout the land as the most fair and beautiful in entire realm. ALMOST as beautiful as the actress who portrays her...But not quite THAT fabulous.Ahem, on this particular day, as with most days, the Princess would be seen happily skipping and through the Kingdom and toward the enchanted forest of enchantment.
(Princess and King both emerge on stage)
King: I say, daughter, going off into the forest again?
Princess: Oh yes, father, and to my favorite enchanted pond, as usual!
King: Pfft, ah yes, ah yes! The Enchanted Pond within the Enchanted Forest of Enchantment on the edge of our Enchanted Kingdom within our Enchanted Land far far away... yes, quite right. Just be back before dark!
King emote: Scratches his beard and nods.
Princess: ....Yeeeah, right. AHEM! I'm off, father! Tra la la la la!
Princess emote: skips happily merrily down the path.
(King Exits stage, Princess 'skips' toward the other end)
Narrator: The Princess would skip happily merrily down the path and into the Enchanted Forest, toward her favorite pond. With her she would bring her most cherished possession, her giant golden key... Which she needed incase she got locked out of her father's castle. Little did she know that today that key would get her into quite the predicament.
Princess emote: smiles happily as she arrives to her favorite pond and begins tossing her large golden key merrily about.
Princess: AH how I love it here by my favorite pond, and how I love playing with my favorite over-sized golden key... Which I absolutely foresee NOTHING bad happening to it!
Princess emote: stumbles and accidently drops her golden key into the deep pond.
Princess yells: OH FAWK!
(Princess kneels to peer off the stage)
Narrator: Little did the fair, beautiful, dazzling, and fabulous princess know, she was being watched by the most unusual murloc who was infact a prince transformed by an evil witch's spell. A spell which can only be undone by the kiss of a beautiful princess.
Princess: This pond is too deep! I'll NEVER be able to get my key back! Never! Oh woe is me! I'm too beautiful to suffer so needlessly!
(Murloc hops on stage and appraoches princess)
Murloc: Oh dear, Princess! I saw the whole thing.. quite unfortunate luck.
Princess gasps: A talking murloc!? G-gross.. err.. I mean.. Perhaps you could help? Could you swim down to the bottom of the pond and retrieve my golden key for me? Oh and do hurry! My father the King is hosting the royal BBQ and cookout tonight!
Murloc: Hmm..I don't know, that pond is awfully deep... Not sure I'd be strong enough to pull up such a large and heavy object of solid gold.
Princess: Please! I'll give you anything you ask as a reward! Gold, Jewels! Anything!
Murloc: Calm down, your highness, I'll give it my best shot. All I'd ask in return is to be your friend.
Princess: Me? A princess friends with a worty murloc? Err.. Of course! I'd LOVE to become your friend!
(Murloc jumps off stage and turns to face the princess)
Murloc emote: dives into the pond, turning around to face the princess once more
Murloc: Oh and one more thing! Since we're friends now, may I attend your father the King's BBQ and cookout tonight? Been ages since I attended a royal BBQ and cookout.
Princess: We're friends aren't we? Of course you may come!
Murloc: Oh oh, and I'm sure the event will last quite a while, may I stay the night as well at the castle?
Princess: Why of course! We've plenty of open guest rooms you could stay in.
Murloc: But I'd prefer to sleep in your room, if you wouldn't mind. Stay up late, talking, sharing stories, you know--getting to know each other better.
Princess: Errrr... SURE, alright then!
Murloc emote: grins happily and dives down deep into the depths of the pond.
Narrator: Happily the murloc dives down and down into the pond, overjoyed he is in the good graces of the princess. Tonight in her chambers he'll have the perfect chance to try and talk her into kissing him and breaking the witch's spell. He found the large golden key at the pond's bottom. Being made of pure gold, it was very heavy indeed, but he knew he HAD to retrieve it to earn his ample reward from the princess. Slowly but surely the murloc would swim up. The golden key would make his chore very difficult due to its weight. Try and try again he would eventually surface with the key, very exhausted and barely able to stand.
(Murloc gets back on the stage and lays down before the princess)
Princess emote: smiles with glee and takes the key from the tired murloc.
Princess: Oh you've done it! You've actually done it!
Murloc: Gasp...gasp... I...I'm very exhausted... C-could you help me back to the castle with you?
Princess stares blankly at the murloc: So long, sucker!
(princess would use nitro boots and dash off stage, leaving the murloc alone)
Murloc: .....gawd dammit!
(Murloc exits stage, King and Princess enters again. I set down the picnic grill prop and the King stands beside it)
Narrator: Evening came and the King held his most festive BBQ and Cookout ever!
King emote: flips a burger. Flips another burger. Picks up a burger and sets it down in exactly the same spot.
King: Mmmhmm! I must declare I make the FINEST Mulgore burgers in the entire kingdom!
Princess: Ah yes father, your Mulgore burgers are simply divine!
Narrator: But little did the princess know, the murloc rested up a bit and he too began a trek to the Castle, moreso to the King's BBQ and cookout.
(Murloc hops back on stage and toward the king and princess)
King: Whats this? A murloc!?
Murloc: Yes your most Kingliness of Kings! I was invited by the Princess to attend your Royal BBQ and Cookout!
(King turns toward Princess)
King: Daughter! Is this true!? Did you invite him to attend?
Princess: I ...err... Yes I did...BUT I wasn't serious! I dropped my golden key into the pond and just wanted to get it back!
King: BAH! That doesn't matter! You have made a promise and no daughter of mine will be deemed a liar! You MUST honor your vow!
Princess emote: shuffles her feet and grumbles.
Princess: FATHER YOU CAN'T BE SERIOUS!
King: I AM SERIOUS! Royal honor is at stake here! Murloc, you will have to forgive my daughter's rude behavior. Please, join us!
Murloc: Thank you, thank you both! I am truely greatful to partake of such a wonderful BBQ and Cookout!
Murloc emote: begins to scarf down the BBQ. Then tries to force-feed the princess a burger.
Murloc: Try some, Princess!
Princess emote: shudders and jerks away
Princess: BLEH!
Narrator: Hours pass and the BBQ and Cookout dies down.
Murloc emote: rubs his tummy and sighs happily
Murloc: Ahhh that was truely delicious, your Highness! I am full and now quite tired! The Princess promised I could stay here at the castle tonight.
King nods: Oh why yes! We certainly have plenty of room to house you for the night.
Murloc: Oh no need, the Princess promised I could stay in her room with her.
King emote: scratches his beard and thinks it over very carefully.
King: Hmm.. Well a promise is a promise, and so my daughter MUST uphold her word! I foresee NOTHING immoral about you sleeping overnight with my young daughter!
Princess emote: cries
(King exits the stage and Murloc and Princess take center)
Narrator: Later that night in her royal bedchamber, the princess would be most upset.
(Princess will begin pacing back and forth)
Princess: UGH! This is absurd! I have never been so humiliated in my entire life!
Murloc: I'm... I'm starting to get the hint you dislike me?
Princess: I'VE NEVER LIKED YOU! You're a warty, ugly murloc! I'm a PRINCESS! I absolutey LOATHE you!
Murloc: But Princess, you don't even know me.. perhaps if you gave me a chance...
Princess: Know you? I wish we never met!
Murloc: Please Princess... If you'll only just trust me!
Princess: Trust you!?
Murloc: Kiss me!
Princess ABSOLUTELY NOT!
Princess emote: Flips out her large golden key and WHACKS the murloc hard, sending him flying across the bedchamber.
(Murloc flies to the other end of the stage and /lay)
Princess: Oh shit!
Princess emote: Dashes to the murloc, kneeling before it.
Princess: Oh no! He's not even moving! I killed him! I got angry and ...and killed him! If father finds out, I'll be banished!
King yells from off stage: DAMN RIGHT!
Princess: What have I done? He only wanted to be my friend...I'm so sorry!
Princess emote: leans down, gently kissing the murloc before holding her face within her palms and crying as she turns away.
(Undo the murloc costume and have the Prince stand)
Prince: Princess....
Princess emote: gasps and turns around to face the prince.
Princess: W-who are you!?
Prince: Until recently I was that warty murloc you thought you'ed killed... Your sweet and gentle kiss broken the curse which turned me into such.
Princess: I..I'm so ashamed, I treated you so horribly. H-how could you even look at me now?
Prince: All of my life I've dreamed of meeting a princess as gentle and kind as she is beautiful... Alas, you'll have to do...
Princess: Oh, my Prince!
(Prince and princess get close and /kiss each other)
Narrator: And so it has come to pass in the Enchanted Kingdom that the curse which befell the the Murloc Prince was shattered, and he had found his true love. I would say the lived happily ever after, but that should be naturally presumed.
Narrator /yells: THE END!
