First real Scene

Scene One
(A man can be seen lying on the floor of a room, shouting for a servant)
(Servant enters)
Servant: (surprised) “What happened?
?: (still shouting) “I nearly- pledge me secrecy about this- fell to an assassin.”
Servant: “Tell me why this should be kept secret? Do you not want the man caught? And how did you survive?”
?: (reveals armor underneath his suit, while still shouting at the servant) “That is exactly why it should be a secret to all! If these men discover that I am still alive, they will finish me within the week! My only hope is to go into hiding and break them as a common man. Now, I insist that you forget your service to me. Do not tell the world I am alive until I see fit to release you, but ask the Duke to replace me slowly. ”
Servant: (low tone) “I pledge that I shall forget you, as you ask, and join the new Sheriff.”

my sister's b-day

Today is my sister's huge ginormous twelfth birthday. I am only relieved that the invasion of friends (a.k.a her birthday party) will not be happening for another week. Later today, I have to go watch the big game that my younger brother Dan will be playing in (he scored his first point last week) The team, coached by Jack Blewett, has not lost a game yet. Perfect season, anyone?
Anyway, there will be another script scene below this post. Be sure to mention anything on your mind in a comment!

Scene 2, backstory speech

The Man: “What could have gone wrong? He has never taken so long to complete his mission before this time! He said that he could easily go and come back within two hours, yet that time has passed, and he has not returned. The fault lies with the Torunds in any case. The Torund fortune could not compare with the fortune held by the Regulases, yet which clan always rose to the occasion to rescue one of their own from prison without paying off the guards or breaking in by night? The Torunds. Which clan bought and built several large properties for their large families, when the Regulases had to get by with two? The Torunds. Which clan received the Barony of Alphrontine as a gift? The Torunds, again. The Regulases could bear all this, but the load which brought to our knees was the announcement that the Torunds had been awarded the position of Sheriffs of the district, to be considered hereditary. The Regulases protested, demanded restitution, but did not receive even an honorary title in reply. And then the Torunds, in their new position, went after the Regulases, arresting them and finding them guilty of many things which should have remained hidden. No one could rise in protest, because the public was not aware of most of the charges brought against them. I will not say that they did not do all that they were charged with, of which they are proud, but the majority of the charges were false, anyway. Most of those charged were executed later, a crime which will not be properly avenged until all of the Torunds have died!” SCENE ENDS HERE
