Double Silver

[It is winter in a distant country. Lights full. The Silver mansion stands on stage right with snow everywhere. Everett and Evangeline Silver are fraternal twins. Evangeline has remained in the Silver mansion her entire life, but Everett was sent away to travel when young and has just returned from adventures in Africa.]

SCENE ONE

((Everett and Evangeline enter from stage left. Evangeline has a parasol and Everett a walking stick.))

EVANGELINE: Look, Everett! It snowed! (She gestures all around her in glee.)

EVERETT: (Smiling,) Indeed, Evangeline. Quite rare, in these parts... (He then shakes her head.) No, what am I saying! Please excuse me...

EVANGELINE: (Turning to Everett with a smile) You've spent too much time in warmer parts, Everett! (She turns back to the snow, her expression suddenly somber.) Hey... Speaking about warmer parts... There's been kidnappings around this area, y'know. People from foreign places have been taken away and reported missing. (She looks at Everett worriedly.)

EVERETT: Don't worry, sister... I can defend myself. (To demonstrate, he pulls out his cane and whirls it around like a sword. Evangeline wolf-whistles.)

EVANGELINE: Nice, bro. But you still have to be cautious, y'know?

EVERETT: What's with that uncouth whistle? And I don't--wait! What's that? (He holds a hand to his ear.)

EVANGELINE: (Turning around wildly) What!? What?! AAAAAAAH!! IT'S A GHOST! (Everett rolls his eyes.)

EVANGELINE: Stop this foolishness! (He unsheathes his cane to reveal a sword) Who's there? Show yourself!

EVANGELINE: (Pointing her parasol like a sword) Who's there? Hey! Talk!

((A masked man in black comes out brandishing a chainsaw.))

EVANGELINE: (Making a face) Hey, I said "talk"! You're not talking!

MASKED MAN: *intelligible growling noises*

EVANGELINE: Fine, don't talk, jeez. (Visibly snaps to attention) Everett! Let's go!

((Both twins start battling the masked man, who proves adept at fighting.))

EVANGELINE: (While fighting) Ever! Run! He's here for you!

EVERETT: (While fighting) No! I'm not a coward! Take that! (Tries to stab the man.)

((The masked man counters and forces him onto the floor, trying to slice him.))

EVANGELINE: Hands off my brother! (Stabs the man through the back and throws him to the side, helping Everett up.) Hurry! We must report to Father!

EVERETT: Aye!

((They race back to the house worriedly, not noticing the black-masked men appearing behind them...))

SCENE ONE: END

______________________________________________________________

I might continue this if I get enough support... :3

CHANGING GENDERS- The parts for Evangeline and Everett can be switched (just change the parasol/sword-cane and the genders). When it says "Everett rolls his eyes" switch to "Evangeline slaps him". I thought it wouldn't be manly to slap a girl...so I changed it.

Picture not mine. (It's Double Charles from Black Butler for those interested.)

For my uses, Evangeline is the woman on the left, Everett next to her...
