[be dramatic]

[takes off jacket and holds ruler like a sword]

This is such a lovely fight just two men berating each other with their swords and Romeo jumping in front of me.

...

Wait! What!?


'Romeo what art thou doing!? Get out of the way'

[gets stabbed]

'I am hurt'

That fool! Why would he do that?

'A plague 'o both houses!'

Oh god I am really getting the dramatic twist of things even as I take my last breaths.

'I am sped.'

[pause]

[looks around]

'Is he gone and hath nothing.'

[pause]

[puts on jacket]

[acts as Benvolio]

'What, art thou hurt?'

[chucks jacket off]

Oh my lord even in these foul times the man has just got to worry about people. I am grateful , yes, but he should surely do this more often with the other folks.

'Ay, ay a scratch

[pause]

Marry

[pause]

'Tis enough.

[coughs]

[looks around]

Where is my page?

Go villain!

[points at random]

Fetch a surgeon'

[coughs]

Oh how this has become of me, a wound but I call it a scratch.

[angryish face]

Tybalt, that vile man! How dare he strick me while I was down.

[desperate look]

[throws hands but in front of me]

But why? Why would Romeo do such a thing as to protect me from the foe he oh so loves?

[thinkin' face]

What has happened for him to change his mind and love the man he is supposed to hate!?

[throws hands]

And flee does the villian go.

[another thinking face]

Will the surgeon be able to fix this hole under my arm?

If so then how?

For I should be gone with the angels before he arrives.

[thinkin' face gone]

'No, 'tis not so deep as a well, nor as wide as a church door.'

[chuckle]

[serious face]

What are these words that are coming out of my mouth for it is truth but not truth at all.

[smile]

'But 'tis enough, 'twill serve.

[tiny pause]

Ask for me to-morrow, and you'll find me a grave man.'

[serious face kinda]

Alas these are the words that are true for I will be gone in a minute or two.

[smile and throws one hand]

'I am peppered!, I warrant, for this world.'

[smile gone]

They do not help me, though a jester I will always be, nothing more nothing less.

[be dramatic again]

'A plague 'o both your houses! Zounds, a dog, a rat, a mouse, a cat, to scratch a man to death!

A braggart, a rogue, a villain, that fights by book of arithmetic! Why the devil you come between us? I was hurt under your are.'

[angryinsh face even if i was already doin' it]

For why would you do that Romeo? The fight was mine and mine alone, the chances of me getting bet were high to none. 'O why did he get in between? I was better off without him so it wouldn't be his fault if I died, but now it is and there's no going back.

[*insert dramatic pause*]

We were such good friends all our lives. Romeo and I played sword fighting when we were just a couple of little misfit kids. Our families were so close then and now. I am related to the prince so we lived in the same area of Verona and even shared our teachers. We would meet each morning and laughed and joked about our parents and how we had not been allowed to behave badly.

[cough cough]

Jokes on them we just did the opposite.

[cough cough]

From all the times we used to steal apples from the stores and run away when the owner would try and catch us but could do nothing about it, when we would go into the forest so they could not find us. All those times when you would get hurt when I taught you the basics in sword fighting.

[lowers voice in fake anger]

But that's in the past now.

For the fun times we had are now over.

[chucks jacket on but only over the shoulders]

[acts like Romeo]

'I thought it was for the best'

[chucks jacket off]

[acts like Mercutio again]

[angry face]

And what best would that be!

To not take up the fight when you had the chance or shield me like I was some coward.

I would wish thee the best but i have no energy in my to tell that to Romeo himself.

[drrrramatic voice]

'Help me into some house Benvolio,

[chucks finger up]

Or I shall faint.

And soundly to:

Your houses!'

Damn I am really need a doctor right now

[falls to the ground]

A plague 'o both your houses! I curse thee forever.'

[lies on ground]

Farewell to all...

[*dies*]
