DuoVision - Day 2

DuoVision- Day 2

The Renaissance Faire


The camera turns on again to show Hilde and Heero making breakfast.
?Welcome to day two of DuoVision. On today?s tape, I?ll being showing our
adventure through the Renaissance Faire. Good morning you two. How?s breakfast coming??

?Breakfast is just fine. Where?s Jackson?? Hilde asks, taking another pancake off the griddle.

?He?s playing with his Deathscythe in the living room.?

?Do you need to have that video camera on this early? Won?t the batteries run out?? Heero questions.

?These batteries are supposed to last 12 hours. That?s plenty of time to
record today?s events.?

?Why don?t you try to do something useful Duo? You can set the table.?

?But then I wouldn?t be able to hold the camera, babe.?

?Why don?t you go and wake up Relena then? I let her sleep, but if she doesn?t wake up soon, we?re going to be late,? Heero suggests, taking a stack of plates from the counter.

?That I can do.? Duo turns around and starts to walk out of the kitchen.

?Just don?t do anything stupid, okay?? Hilde shouts.

?I promise.? He starts his ascent up the stairs, pointing the camera at a room.

?This shouldn?t be that hard. I just wake her up and I?ve done my work for the day,? Duo says walking down the hallway until he stops at a door. He takes his free hand and opens the door, walking in quietly while showing Relena sleeping under the covers. He walks over and squats down so he is about eye level with her. ?Relena? Relena? Wake up,? he says, gently shaking her. ?Come on Princess. What am I supposed to do?? He thinks for a few moments, coming up with an idea. ?I know." Suddenly you hear someone take a deep breath. "Relena, wake up!? he screams, scaring Relena out of her sleep. She screams as Duo falls on his butt and she continues to spasm on the bed in fright. After calming down, she looks down at the camera.

?Duo! What the hell are you doing?? she asks, covering herself with the sheets.

?I was trying to wake you up," he responds, getting back onto his feet.

?Well you did.? Suddenly, the sound of footsteps are heard. Duo turns around to show Heero and Hilde running into the room.

?Duo, Heero told you to wake Relena up, not scare her half to death," she comments as Heero walks over towards Relena.

?Relena, are you okay?? he asks, sitting next to her on the bed, cupping her cheek.

?Yeah. I?m fine. But how come everyone is up except for me??

?I thought you should get some rest.?

?But I?ve had enough rest. You don?t have to do all this for me. I want to be normal like you guys sometimes.?

?But I just want you and the baby to be happy and healthy.?

?We?re both very happy and healthy Heero, because you?re here," she
says, taking both of her small hands in his.

?Oh man. Does there sap have to happen so early in the morning?? Duo complains.

?Duo! That?s it. The camera is going off.? The camera is suddenly lifted up and is turned off.
*
?Finally, we?re back in business,? Duo says, turning on the camera showing the group all dressed up, except Jackson, Trowa and Catherine. Each of the girls in their dresses of browns, blacks, whites, and darker colors and each boy dressed as well in their outfits, except Wufei who decides to wear a traditional Chinese outfit.

?I can?t believe you actually brought that thing Maxwell," Wufei comments, crossing his arms across his chest.

?I actually think it?s a good idea. Years from now, we?ll be able to look back on everything and remember all the fun we had. Just as long as Duo doesn?t do anything stupid," Relena says, giving a warm smile.

?Thanks princess. And here we are the Renaissance faire, the whole group minus Trowa and Catherine since they?re working here. How about we start things off with some good old fashion food??

?Or we could go find Trowa and Catherine,? Dorothy suggests, giving him a look.

?I like that idea better. Then we can go get some food.? Everyone sighs at Duo's appetite, but Duo ignores and pans the camera back and forth.

?Sounds good to me.? The group walks into the faire and sees all the people, dressed up or not, enjoying themselves.

?So where are we supposed to look for the two first?? Sally asks.

?How about over here!" They all turn towards the female voice and see Catherine and Trowa coming over dressed up as court jesters.

?Hey you guys," Hilde says, waving as they slow down.

?We?re glad you can finally make it," Trowa speaks, as Duo catches the shot of the whole group.

?No problem. So where do you suggest we go first?? Relena asks the two jesters.

?Anywhere, but I would suggest the jewelry stand. There are some really pretty necklaces that might be gone soon," Catherine says, as she continues to think of places.

?Great suggestion," Wufei comments, crossing his arms and receiving a hit from Sally next to him.

?Do you want to join us when we?re ready for lunch? We?ll be able to get you good seats for the show right after.?

?Sure Catherine. That would be great," Quatre requests.

"Alright. Meet us at the theater at one. Have fun you guys," Trowa states as the two turn around and start their walk back.

"Oh we will," Duo says, snickering softly.

"What does that mean Duo?" Hilde asks, her face right up to the camera.

"It means we'll have fun. That's all."

"So do we head off to the jewelry stand?" Dorothy suggests.

"We might as well start there and see what happens," Heero says.

"Get back here Julian. I want my doll." They turn to see an older boy holding a doll and being chased by a smaller girl

"Come and get it!" HE looks back towards the girl, unaware of his present course as he runs into Duo, knocking him over and the camera into the air.

"No!" were the last words heard before the camera goes blank.

"Is it fixed yet Duo?" Relena says, but no picture appears.

"The little red light is on, so I think so." He lifts the camera back onto his shoulder, giving it a shake and looks through, showing Relena starring right at it. "Great. But it took so long that I've missed out on so much," Duo comments sadly as the rest of the group sits on benches in the rest area.

"You didn't miss out on much. Except for Relena giving Wufei that black eye. I would've loved to see that over and over again." The camera turns from a laughing Hilde to Sally putting ice on Wufei's right eye, and he trying to refuse it.

"Be quiet onna and get that camera away from me Maxwell!"

"Oh you be quiet Wufei. I mean, who knew Relena had such a good punch?"

"I just wish we had it on tape," Dorothy says, smiling just thinking about it.

"We can try to recreate it," Heero suggests.

"Great. Alright. Heero and Quatre, be yourselves. Sally, you can say your lines from next to Wufei. Dorothy, you be Relena and Hilde you be Wufei," Duo commands as he points to each player.

"Why do I have to be Wufei?" Hilde asks, getting up as the others do.

"Because Dorothy looks more like Relena and Relena's not supposed to be standing right now. Plus you have the short dark hair."

"Okay. Let's get this started then," Relena says from her seat.

"Wait! I need to have a belly like Relena. That's what made this moment so special."

"She's right you know," Relena says. They look around and Duo finds a fat bag.

"Use this quilt. IT should be okay," he says, giving her the bag. Dorothy takes the quilt out and turns around, stuffing it under her dress. She then turns around with a proud looking stomach.

"Now we can start."

"Alright. This scene takes place at one of the craft stands. Ready? Action!"

"Wow. Look at all of these statues. I can't believe people actually made them by hand," Quatre states, pretending to look at statues with the others.

"It must have taken them hours," Sally says from the background.

"Hey Heero, what do you think of this one?" Dorothy says as she pretends to pick up a statue and show it to Heero.

"It's nice."

"What do you guys think?" she asks, showing the others.

"It's a real masterpiece. It looks like Buddha though," Sally says from the background again.

"It looks just like you onna," Hilde says, doing the best impression of Wufei
as she can.

"And what is that supposed to mean Wufei?" Dorothy says, pretending to get pissed off.

"It's big, round, and fat just like you are."

"What? Take that back right now or else," Dorothy threatens, putting the statue down.

"It's true. And or else what?"

"Or else this!" Dorothy takes her fist and pretends to hit Hilde's right eye. Then Hilde falls to the ground, covering her eye.

"Why you little?"

"Wufei!" Quatre screams.

"How about that, huh?" Dorothy says, placing her hands on her hip in victory.

"Cut. That's a wrap. Good job you guys. That was perfect." Everyone starts to laugh and Dorothy once again turns around to take out the quilt.

"None of it happened that way," Wufei comments, camera pointed at him, showing his black eye.

"Of course it did Wufei. You just don't want to admit it," Relena says, sticking out her tongue like a little girl.

"You guys, it's already 1:10 and Trowa and Catherine aren't here yet," Quatre says looking at his watch. At that moment, the two in question arrive.

"Hey you guys! Sorry we're late!" Catherine apologizes.

"We have a bit of an emergency though."

"What's wrong Trowa?" Hilde asks.

"Wait. What happened to Wufei?" Catherine asks.

"Relena got the better of him. Don't worry; we recreated it for you guys to see later. Now what's wrong?" Dorothy says.

"Some of the actors in the sword fight scene got knocked out when a piece of faulty scenery hit them. Now we're down a few characters."

"So we were wondering if any of you would help us out. You already know how to sword fight anyways," Catherine states.

"Of course we will. Quatre, why don't you go? I would but I want to be available if anyone calls."

"Alright."

"Oh, Duo and I will go too," Hilde says, jumping up and down.

"But Hilde, what about DuoVision?"

"Just give the camera to someone else."

"Alright. Here princess take it." He shoves it into Relena's hands.

"Me?"

"Yeah. Everything interesting has been happening with you and honestly you're the only one around with a good sense of humor." She takes the camera and turns it around so you can now see Duo.

"Alright. So I just tape things?"

"You have to make an intro, like I do. Try it."

"Fine. Since Duo is off helping out Trowa and Catherine with their play, I'll be taking over until we see Duo again. Is that good?"

"Perfect. Alright, we're off!" Duo says as they all head out.

"Duo in a play. This should be interesting," Quatre suggest.

"So what do we do now?" Heero asks.

"I say we go eat. Us three are starving."

"Sounds like a plan. It will probably take a while before we get something
anyways," Sally says, leaving Wufei to his own eye.

"Good. Then let's start going." They start their walk as the camera starts to get all snowy. "Oh no."

"Oh no what?" Heero says, almost sounding worried.

"The camera's going out again." The camera shakes as Relena hopes it will give back a clear image.

"Maybe it needs some time to rest," Heero states.

"We'll fix it later. Just turn it off before it explodes or something with our luck," Dorothy comments.
*
"Hey. It's working finally," Relena says as the image of the outdoor theatre is shown. "So how much longer until the show starts?"

"It should start now. But since they were having problems, it might start later," Heero states.

"Be quiet you guys. I think it's starting," Sally says. The curtain opens up to see the recreation of a throne room with people on the sides gossiping and two empty chairs.

"Their majesties, the king and queen," a young man announces. Everyone on stage bows as the two adults dressed as king and queen enter and sit in their seats.

"Let the entertainment begin," the older man states. From the right side of the stage, Trowa and Catherine enter and stand in front.

"Your majesties, my brother and I have prepared a fascinating routine for you."

"Hey. It's Trowa and Catherine. Are they going to do the usual routine?" Relena whispers.

"I wouldn't see why not," Heero answers. The two start a routine where they both begin by throwing daggers back and forth to each other.

"Wonderful," the queen comments. In the middle of the act, several guards enter the room.

"Your highness, we have just discovered horrible news."

"Well, just don't stand there. Spit it out," the king commands.

"We believe that a group from our neighboring kingdom has sneaked into the castle for an attack."

"Oh no," the queen whispers, covering her mouth in shock.

"Tell all the men to start looking for anyone suspicious."

"Of course your majesty."

"Hold it right there!" a strange man with many others behind him says.

"That's Duo, isn't it?" Sally says.

"Yep. No one else could have a braid like that," Dorothy smirks.

"We have come here by the command of our king to seize this castle. We give you a chance to surrender or else we will declare war," Duo commands, trying to act serious.

"I will never give up my kingdom. Guards, attack the intruders." The two groups of soldiers begin a mock sword fight and each one starts to go down. Suddenly the chandelier from overhead falls. Everyone starts to panic and move away from the stage as it and pieces of support fall from above.

"That can not be good," Heero states. Soon a man comes out and stands in front of the stage.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we're very sorry about this event. WE will have to close the theater it and a refund will be given to all. Once again, we are very sorry."

"Well Maxwell wanted something exciting on his tape and this sure qualifies," Wufei says.

"Definitely," Sally agrees.

"Shouldn't we go check on how they're doing?" Heero suggests.

"WE should," Relena replies. They all soon head towards the backstage ad they see a group of actors coming out.

"Hey you guys. All you alright?" Dorothy asks.

"Alright? Alright! I almost got killed by a stupid prop," Duo cries, being overdramatic.

"You would've made it out of the way and you know it," Hilde says.

"Yeah, but still."

"Maybe having your camera will cheer you up. Here," Relena says, giving back the camera to its rightful owner.

"Thanks princess. I hope you got some good footage."

"Actually, you didn't completely fix the camera, so it really didn't work at all after you gave it to me. I did video tape the whole performance though."

"I guess that will do."

"So what's going to happen now you two?" Quatre asks.

"Us and the rest of the crew are getting the day off. There won't be any more plays. They're also going to be closing the fair early for 'the safety of the people'. They think more things might break," Catherine states, annoyed and disappointed.

"So we should leave now to avoid the traffic," Trowa suggests.

"Man. I wanted to do some more exploring."

"There's always next year Duo," Hilde says.

"I guess."

"Let's go home. I'm ready to take a nap," Relena says as she and Heero turn around, hand in hand, for the parking lot. The rest soon follow except Duo.

"And so ends Day two of DuoVision, with a little part of RelenaVision. Tomorrow we will have the pleasure of watching Quatre's bachelor's party. What will happen? No one knows."

"Duo! Move it already! I want to go to sleep!" Relena screams, turning herself towards the camera.

"Coming!" HE answers running after, the camera screen going black.




That?s the end of part two. Enjoy!
