| Sleepy: |
|
What's up,
DJ, you look depressed?
|
|
|
|
| DJ: |
|
Sleepy,
I have to tell you something very important. I have
to leave you.
(He runs out the door, slides down the ladder, &
runs away.)
|
|
|
|
| Sleepy: |
|
(Confused)
What the…?
(He lies back down & tried to keep himself awake.)
DJ, my only hope cause he's the music that I hear
to keep me awake because nothing else will. I am burdened
with this curse. DJ is my only cure for my curse, but
he disowned me & betrayed me. And my fear, to never
wake, that I think it shall happen. And to wake up every
day & live a normal life is going to be hard without
him because he has turned evil. I'm confused. I'm flustered
because I don't know why. Is it my fault? What did I do?
Why, oh, why me? Oh, how I will try to get him back, but
it is going to be so hard & I am still worried about
him. |

Scene
II
At Rise: We see DJ running toward a town called
Fenberry.
|
|
|
|
| DJ: |
|
Oh, how
I am so afraid of myself right now because my best friend
vinyl has passed away. Now I am lonely & afraid
even though I have one close friend left, he can not
support me & play the music. I am rusty & getting
old, so I left him to find new friends & to find
a new family. So now I can't play any music because
vinyl is gone.
(He goes over to a music shop called The Shops of
Music. DJ looks for others who can play music. DJ hears
this very good music playing & he thinks to himself.)
Who is playing that music? I should ask him if he wants
to play with me.
(He runs over there & he sees that is was Sleepy
playing that music.)
Is that you, Sleepy? I didn't know you were a DJ. How
come you never told me that you were a DJ?
|
|
|
|
| Sleepy: |
|
Because
you never asked me & I fell asleep a lot & it
was hard for me to do things like that. |
|
|
|
| DJ: |
|
Well,
if I knew that you could've played all along, I wouldn't
have ran away from you. And how did you get here without
me? |
|
|
|
| Sleepy: |
|
I found
myself a cure to wake myself up for a few messily hours,
but I came after you because I still care about you,
but I'm mad at you for just leaving me like that &
telling me nothing.
|
|
|
|
| DJ: |
|
But
how can you wake up without me? |
|
|
|
| Sleepy: |
|
My
Dad gave me some coffee & then the caffeine woke me
up. |
|
|
|
| DJ: |
|
Sleepy,
I'm very sorry I left you, it's just… |
|
|
|
| Sleepy: |
|
Just
What? |
|
|
|
| DJ: |
|
It's
just that my closest friend Vinyl who was like a brother
died. |
|
|
|
| Sleepy: |
|
Oh…
But still that doesn't explain why you left me!! |
|
|
|
| DJ: |
|
I
was afraid of… |
|
|
|
| Sleepy: |
|
Afraid
of me leaving you? Or afraid of me bothering you? |
|
|
|
| DJ: |
|
No!!
Let me finish what I was about to say! I was afraid that
you can't play any music. |
|
|
|
| Sleepy: |
|
Why
didn't you ask me in the first place? |
|
|
|
| DJ: |
|
I
don't know… I was scared that, somehow I would be
put in a box and rust away and die. |
|
|
|
| Sleepy: |
|
But DJ,
when you left me, I couldn't stay awake. I was hella
scared because my Dad could of committed suicide. I
also wanted to go to my mother's grave and give her
the beautiful rose you gave me.
|
|
|
|
| DJ: |
|
Why would
your Dad do that?
|
|
|
|
| Sleepy: |
|
Because…My
mother died 2 days ago and I need to comfort my Dad
& you know how much my Dad means to me. Since my
mother died my Dad hasn't been eating & he was drinking
a lot lately.
|
|
|
|
| DJ: |
|
Oh… |
|
|
|
| Sleepy: |
|
DJ,
don't you understand what I'm talking about? I need you
to help me stay awake. Have you forgotten about my curse
that nothing would be able to keep me awake except with
the sound of the music you play. |
|
|
|
| DJ: |
|
No!!
I still remember. I'm very sorry that I have done that
to you, but now I really need you because it seems like
you are gifted with vinyl's skill of playing music. |
|
|
|
| Sleepy: |
|
(Thinks
to himself) I have an idea. |
|
|
|
| DJ: |
|
What
is it? |
|
|
|
| Sleepy: |
|
Since
now you know that I have the skill of playing music and
that only music that you play can wake me up, why don't
we both team up? |
|
|
|
| DJ: |
|
Yes.
Good idea. If we teamed up you can stay awake and play
music, earn money and live a normal life, and help your
father not to commit suicide. Then I would be able to
make people happy and I wouldn't be forgotten and be put
away in a box. |
| |
|
|
| |
|
The
End. |
