THREE
WITCHES.
My
story idea-three witches live in a fantasy world and visit the human world to
kidnap a child and make him a servant for all eternity.
OLGA
GLORIA
LYDIA
MANWITCH-LORAN
Main
character-"Boy."
-Enter
Olga.
Olga-Ho,
hum, it's just another day, working in my garden. (Shrieks.)
I found one! Hey, everybody, I
found one! (She casts an evil eye around
her, but there's no one nearby. She
shrugs, and looks around again. A
cockroach is crawling on a rose. She
leans over, picks it up by its legs, and tosses it in her bag. She squints and looks up at the sky.) Drat, it looks like rain! I better head inside!
(The
scene dims.)
(Second
scene-lightens, and the camera focuses on a small cabin in the middle of a
large forest of trees. A well is nearby,
and a large, black cauldron rests in the middle of the spacious front yard,
which is full of weeds. An old woman
with scraggly gray hair and a pointy nose exits the cabin, and goes over to the
cauldron. She carries a wooden spoon in
her left hand, which is green and covered with warts. Her name is Gloria.)
Gloria-MMM,
mmm, smells scrumptious today, doesn't it, Mildred?
(A fat,
black cat comes out of the cabin, and waddles over to her, meowing.)
(Gloria
chuckles.)-Hungry, baby? (She bends down
to scratch it under its chin. As she
straightens, her back creaks. She winces
a little, and her mouth forms a small "O," of unsatisfaction.) So am I, but this lizard soup will taste
wonderful with my chicken cesar salad.
It's all done! (She turns towards
the cabin and shrieks loudly.) Lydia,
Olga, it's r-ready!
(Two
witches come bursting out of the front door, carrying bowls and wooden spoons,
but the wooden spoons are smaller in size than the wooden spoon that Gloria is
using for the cauldron. The witches look
alike, except Lydia is taller and Olga has a huge wart on her very green nose.)
Gloria
(singsong voice)-Ladies first!
Lydia
(in disgust): We're all ladies, here!
(A
voice appears out of nowhere.) I
wouldn't say that!
(Lydia
spins around angrily.)
Lydia-Who
said that?
Voice-Me,
you boistering mongdingers!
(Lydia
relaxes.)
Lydia-Oh,
it's just you, Loran, I thought I was going crazy for an instant.
Loran-You
are crazy, my love, you have to accept it.
Gloria-Come
out, come out, wherever you are, invisible witches aren't accepted here.
