“Do you think you four can help me out?”, asked again the stage crew member, this time not as tired as earlier. What wonders a minute of rest and explaining your situation can do to a stressful running crew member.

The four the running crew member he asked for help from are a rather… strange bunch if he’s ever seen one.

The first and most obvious of the four is this gigantic hulk of a man known as Zincz Greyhound, whose wearing a terrifying armor set including a helmet that looks like a wolf’s head. The man was quite the friendly person however despite such a contrasting appearance, which is a nice considering the stress he’s going through. Though he’s not sure if he’s a good actor, but he’s just gonna hope sol.

Then there was that kid in the really  long ponytail and headphones, Akiba Tanegashima. Pretty chill kid, though he’s best as a background character at most.

Then there was the similarly chill cowboy-girl with that gas mask and big hat named Hayate Alya. Reminds me of those samurai cowboy movies, but just like the kid she’s best played as a background character. Her face hasn’t changed one bit!

And finally we got Ms. Deathstare hipster girl, Artoria Glasdragon, with the longest braided hair he’s ever seen. It wraps around her neck like a scarf for Monty’s sake! Luckily she’s got the most “normal” personality in the group and the best chance of playing one of the more important roles besides Big Wolfie here. Bthe looks she gives me are freaking terrifying.

Well… it's not like he’s got time to find anyone else anymore.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.7999999999999998;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:10pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#ffffff;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">“I don’t see why not?”, said Zincz in his usual optimism. “It’ll be fun doing a play! And I’ll do anything to make kids happy. How about you guys?”, he then gestures towards the other three.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.7999999999999998;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:10pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#ffffff;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">Artoria answered strongly to this saying, “Obviously, if it's for a children’s play then of course I’ve gotta help.”

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.7999999999999998;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:10pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#ffffff;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">The two quiet ones simply on the other hand simply nodded in agreement.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.7999999999999998;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:10pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#ffffff;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">…and that was when some stranger showed up and seemed to be attempting to flirt with Artoria and Hayate.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.7999999999999998;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:10pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#ffffff;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">Bad idea, poor chap.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.7999999999999998;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:10pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#ffffff;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">Hayate’s not interested in anyone, besides perhaps her rival and maybe her own partner, so she didn’t bother to notice him and instead kept asking Akiba for a duel for some reason, to which the boy kept declining.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.7999999999999998;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:10pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#ffffff;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">Artoria on the other hand was a different story.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.7999999999999998;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:10pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#ffffff;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">“Huh? Are you… trying to flirt with me?”, asked Artoria in a surprisingly soft voice, which surprised everyone. But is unfortunately short-lived as she then follows with a much more serious and pissed off tone.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.7999999999999998;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:10pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#ffffff;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">“You think a bloody smooth-talker, eh? Sorry, but I wouldn’t like being around a walking old century manky. In fact, I’d rather have a bloody date with an actual one rather than a tosser like yourself! Yer’ probably just some Nutter hungry for a fanny to get into, aren’tcha!? Ya little twat!!”

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.7999999999999998;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:10pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#ffffff;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">And in that one moment, everyone besides Zincz had an epiphany: Don’t flirt with Artoria.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.7999999999999998;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:10pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#ffffff;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">Luckily, Zincz quickly intervened in the argument and Artoria had to begrudgingly back off, but not without giving one last insult: “Wanker!”

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.7999999999999998;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:10pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#ffffff;font-weight:400;font-style:italic;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">~A few minutes later~

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.7999999999999998;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:10pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#ffffff;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">“Unbelievable… this is what we’ve got!?”, yelled in frustration did the director, unpleased by the group the crew members brought as back-up. Well you can’t really blame him, as the team literally comprises of a fully-armored wolf knight, a mute samurai, a DJ, Grape-boy (Asper) and his sidekick Tomato-boy (Kinaver), two cowboys (Tanner and Leon) and a cowboy (girl) samurai, a tuxedoed bodyguard (Dalton), a dog, and a STRIPPER! <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#ffffff;font-weight:700;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">A BLOODY STRIPPER!!! WHAT WERE YOU THINKING!? <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#ffffff;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">”, he finishes by pointing accusingly and yelling at the top of his lungs at the one crew member who seemed to be too happy right now. “NOT ONLY THAT, WE ARE STILL MISSING <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#ffffff;font-weight:700;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;"> ONE MEMBER! WHERE IS THAT BUFFOON!? <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#ffffff;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">”

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.7999999999999998;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:10pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#ffffff;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">After that little outburst, the director closed his eyes and slowly breathed in and out to calm down. After a few minutes, the director finally regained composure and quickly did a briefing on the situation.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.7999999999999998;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:10pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#ffffff;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">I am the director of this children’s play. This play is about the story of the great hero Heracius and his twelve labours. Here are the scripts and here are also your wireless earphones. Since you all haven’t been trained yet, I’ll have to make sure you all do your parts. I’ll give you all orders as this play, well, plays and you all try to do it in the best of your abilities. Quickly! We have no time to spare!.”

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.7999999999999998;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:10pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#ffffff;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">Crew members begin to pass the scripts to everyone along with the earphones. Said earphones are small enough to be flushed with the ear and not be noticed.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.7999999999999998;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:10pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#ffffff;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">“Now, for roles...”, the Director presses his hand to his mouth in a thinking pose. “For now… you. Big guy. Heracius. Get to the dressing room”

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.7999999999999998;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:10pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#ffffff;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">The Director points to Zincz who with a surprised but happy expression howls and runs towards the dressing room. He quickly returns wearing a white toga, pants, and greaves. He also is without his helmet, showing off his handsome and mature face.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.7999999999999998;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:10pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#ffffff;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">“You. DJ Girl.you’re Heracius’ wife.”

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.7999999999999998;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:10pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#ffffff;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">Artoria was both surprised and embarrassed to get such a role, while also feeling somewhat agitated for no reason, but is held back by Akiba. With a small apology, she quickly heads over to the dressing room. She returns wearing a white dress and a few accessories.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.7999999999999998;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:10pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#ffffff;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">“Flirty cowboy, King Erytheus. The stripper, Herace. Scene is you, Herace, wants to trouble Heracius. So you make him go mad and kill his wife. So, he prays to the god of guidance and his oracle-”, points to a now dressed-up backstage crew member. “-will tell him to go to you, Erytheus and serve him for 12 years and perform ten labours, with doing so rewarding him immortality. The first one is that he must slay the Nemion Lion of Nemios. Go, and do it now because the play is starting. You all that haven’t been called, help out the crew members until you’re needed on stage.”

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.7999999999999998;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:10pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#ffffff;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">And with that short briefing, the Director clapped his hands and with it, everyone went and prepared.

<span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(255,255,255);font-weight:400;white-space:pre-wrap;">(Now here’s where everything gets difficult. As this is gonna be a play, we have to post by order from one OC to the next. As such I’ll be giving a post order whenever this happens to make things more easy to read and less of a hassle. So right now it's Ray, me, then Delt. Alright guys, good luck)
