Through the Forrest

Act 2 Scene 4

Scene: 4

Where The Forest & Valliea Meet

Directer: Ah, Evelyn. Our traitor... what do you think your town has to say about this?

Townspeople: (like zombies) Directer, recter. You're our master! We'll follow you as you spread disaster. You'll take over the government, and we'll do as you say. You'll rule the world, and we'll obey.

Evelyn: What's happened to them!?

Directer: They didn't wish to fight you with much enthusiasm, as you're the "nicest girl in town," so I used some song lyrics to hypnotize them. And now they will stop at nothing until they win.

Evelyn: What are we going to do now?

#12 War

War

(Everyone fights while they sing)

Evelyn:
Black Moon, you saw me standing against the odds alone. Without a dream in my heart, without a freedom of my own. You knew just what I am here for, what you heard me saying a prayer for, a freedom I really could care for. Then it suddenly appeared before me, a reason to fight this war, a reason I hadn't thought of before! Oh, oh, oh___ Now I'm no longer alone, with a dream in my heart, a world with a choice of our own. So you better shape up, 'cause I'm fighting for our freedom! All must understand, to my heart I must be true. And the old me and I are through!

Townspeople:

Directer, recter. You're our master! We'll follow you as you spread disaster. You'll take over the government, and we'll do as you say. You'll rule the world, and we'll obey.

Evelyn: (speaking) They're under a spell, alright! But I think I can fix it!

(The magic from Evelyn's pendant flashes and the spell is lifted)

Evelyn: Yes, it worked! Now to get rid of Directer and Bestanden!

Directer: Not so fast! You haven't won anything yet! They will still fight!

Directer:
Oh foolish little girl, little girl! I must confess, I don't believe in a world of rebellion. You're not a real threat! I made them believe what I do is right____ You tried to stand up to me, because you don't think I'm a good person. Oh Little girl, little girl! I'm not that stupid! You see the problem is this, people won't let me do my job. I'm stuck wishing I had more power. I get on with life as a Leader, I'm an evil kinda person. I'm taking over and I'll be using magic____

Directer: (speaking) Rise up, my townspeople.

(They obey)

Redmond: What!?

Amber: What's going on?

Evelyn: What are we supposed to do now?

Directer: I've told you, child. You don't know what you're up against!

Redmond:
We are strong and we won't give up without a fight. The odds may seem vague, but there's still hope. We can't stray from what's important, we can't lose sight. The forest may seem like a slippery slope, but if you can just believe____ Follow my lead!

(They mimic how Redmond fights)

Dean:

Hell can't be any worse than in Valliea . Can this still be real or just some crazy dream___ Why? Everyone's not always the way they seem. I don't understand what else I could do___ But what is this town coming to? Please help us! I flinch, not because I'm afraid but because of what I saw in my own dreams... were they... Losing Evelyn. If it takes forever, I tell ya I can wait___
