FAIRIES
WRITTEN BY CARRIE ALLEN
MAY 23, 2018
CAST
NARRATOR
EMBER, young girl fairy
BECK, young boy fairy
GIL, younger boy fairy
SETTING: A WOODED WALKING PATH
NARRATOR
We happen upon two tiny fairy creatures in a forest. Several minutes up the path is a couple walking, enjoying the surroundings having no idea what mischief lies ahead.
EMBER
No way! This is never gonna work.
BECK
Sure it is. I just need a little more magic dust. Come on! I know you have extra!
EMBER
I do. But barely! Remember yesterday?
BECK
Thatās different. I was overthinking things.
NARRATOR
Flying somewhat erratically, comes another tiny fairy.
GIL
Hey! Ember! Beck! They are almost here!
BECK
Please, please, please! Ember! It will be so awesome!
EMBER
Fine. Fine. Here. Letās do this.
BECK
Excellent! Gil, go to that side of the path and wait for my cue. Ember, take this side and Iāll go to that branch in the center.
EMBER
I really donāt think this is gonna work. We havenāt even done this spell in class yet. Why do you always read ahead?
GIL
(from far away)
Hey! Guys! I canāt hear you! What are you saying?! Are we starting?
BECK
No, Gil! Wait for the signal!
EMBER
Look! They just came around the bend.
GIL
I see āem! There they are! Do you see āem?! Ember?! Beck?!
EMBER & BECK
Yes, Gil!
NARRATOR
As the couple approaches, the three fairies ready themselvesā¦
EMBER
Okayā¦ almostā¦. BEGIN!
BECK
āWith magic dust and fairy wings,
The wind does blow and with it brings
Wisps of smoke; the shape of fear;
Those who see will surely hear---ā
EMBER, BECK & GIL
(all scream)
AHHHHHHHH!!!!!!
NARRATOR
The three tiny fairies throw their magic dust into the air as they scream. Suddenly, a large, dark cloud begins to form across the path and their voices begin to grow in volume.
GIL
Itās working!
SFX: WINDS BUILDING
NARRATOR
The winds increase as the couple approaches. The fairies continue to scream as the couple starts to notice a high-pitched sound. The dark, smoke-like cloud ahead begins to take the form of a giant, shadowy creature.
SFX: BIRD FLY THROUGH & SQUAWK
SFX: MAGIC FALLING
NARRATOR
A bird flies through and breaks the spell. The couple, startled by the sudden visitor, screams and laughs, continuing on their way, leaving the fairies behind.
EMBER
Waste. Of. Time. And magic dust.
GIL
That was fun! Letās do it again!
BECK
We were so close! And it was working! It was totally working.
EMBER
Kinda. But weāve no way of knowing if it would have really worked.
BECK
What are you talking about?! They screamed even!
EMBER
At the bird!
BECK
You actually donāt think they heard us?
GIL
They heard us! They heard us!
EMBER
No. I donāt. WE donāt know what we are doing. Plus, weāre going to get in trouble for using magic to mess with humans. Oh. AND now you owe me some magic dust.
BECK
Why would we get into trouble if it didnāt work?
EMBER
(frustrated)
Ahhhh!!
NARRATOR
Ember quickly turns to flutter back towards the Fairy Tree with the other two close behind.
BECK
(poking)
What? Are you gonna tell on us? Are you gonna say it worked? That the humans heard and saw our shadow creature?
GIL
They did! They did!
EMBER
No, of course not. Justā¦ just donāt invite me on anymore of these adventures.
BECK
Ember? Awe, really? Donāt say that. You donāt mean it. Who would look after Gil while Iām cooking up crazy schemes?
GIL
Yeah! Whoās looking at me?
EMBER
Me, Gil, me.
(to BECK)
Fine. You win. But you still owe me some magic dust.
BECK
No problemā¦ I know a guy.
EMBER
Of course you do.
NARRATOR
And the motley crew of tiny young fairies flutter into the sunset, hatching new mischievous plansā¦ to attempt.
