Act 3
Scene 1 - In front of Rose's house
Scene: The formerly neat and orderly front lawn of Rose lies in shambles. Mensa HQ and Guardian struggle to get up, stunned by the explosion of Viridian Entente. The Syndicate stands over Rose, who is lying on the ground crying. All four alliance are covered in chunks of Viridian Entente, and stare toward the spot where the alliance formerly stood, watching the giant J that hovers over the spot in shock and confusion. United Purple Nations stands in the background, no longer laughing but instead looking unsure of itself. Sheepy stands by, appearing concerned.
The Syndicate:
Sheepy? What are you doing here? What happened to VE?
Sheepy:
Well, we may have a teensy little issue here. Nothing major of course.
Rose:
angry and sobbing
Not serious???!!! My best friend just exploded!
Sheepy:
Nah, it'll be fine. Just a little hacking issue, nothing major.
The Syndicate:
What? Hacking?
Sheepy:
So.... it turns out that I might've let someone hack the universe. But just a little.
Guardian:
Hacking..... the universe? How is that possible?
Sheepy:
Well, I'm not entirely sure, but they seems to have made Viridian Entente here explode.
The Syndicate:
How can you not be sure? You're the god here!
Sheepy
sheepishly
Well.... yeah, I am. But I mean, this isn't an easy job. Even I have to take breaks for classes and snacks and all that.
The Syndicate:
You went on a snack break!? Look what happened!
Sheepy:
C'mon, you guys are blowing this out of proportion, I'll make it all right, trust me.
Rose:
You let VE get blown up! Sheepy, this isn't a game, this is real life! How could you?
Sheepy laughs nervously
The Syndicate:
What was that for?
Sheepy:
You know, it's funny you say that Rose, because this is all actua- you know what, never mind. Let me just fix things up quickly and.... hmmmm.
Guardian:
Why the "hmmm"?
Sheepy:
This may be slightly more serious than I first thought. We may have to travel back in time to a previous version of the universe.
The Syndicate:
What?
Sheepy:
It's simpler than it sounds, actually. Just go back a little ways when everything was normal, and we'll be all set.
Rose:
excitedly
Ohh! Time travel! Can we see dinosaurs!
Sheepy:
How about seeing VE again?
Rose:
sadly
Well, yeah.... I guess..... but what about dinosaurs?
Mensa HQ
WAIT! You can't do this! This is blatantly unfair to me! I've spent the past several minutes beating up VE. You mean to tell me that all my hard work will be wasted. And VE gets brought back to life???? That's incredibly biased!
Sheepy:
I'm not sure that's how this works...
Mensa HQ:
I can't believe this!! Valuing VE over me! My opinion is the most valid, listen to me. VE won't even be beat up anymore! Why do you hate me?
Sheepy:
I can't hate what I don't understand, this is just how things work.
Mensa HQ:
sobbing
Why does everyone hate me? Why does nobody listen only to me? Why is my life so tragic?\
United Purple Nations:
Listen, can we just do this already? I have places to be you know.
Sheepy:
Alright, let me just check through my backups. Closest one is.... 10 hours ago. There we are.
United Purple Nations:
What? 10 hours!? You're telling me you don't do hourly backups of the universe? What kind of deity are you?
The Syndicate:
That does seem pretty sad Sheepy.
Sheepy:
Will all you ungrateful morons just shut up!
pause
Very good. Here we go.
All the alliances begin talking loudly, trying to get Sheepy's attention. The world begins to spin around them, and suddenly all the alliances are deposited on Rose's lawn 10 hours earlier. Viridian Entente stands beside them.
The Syndicate:
What.... just happened? Are we back?
Rose:
I think we... VE!
Rose runs over and hugs Viridian Entente, who looks confused. The Syndicate, Mensa HQ, and Guardian stare unhappily in their direction.
Viridian Entente:
Uhh... hi Rose. What's going on?
Mensa HQ
menacingly
Round 2.....
​Mensa HQ begins to step threateningly toward Rose and Viridian Entente, but The Syndicate and Guardian hold it back.
Guardian:
C'mon Mensa, it's been a long night. Let's just go.
Mens HQ, Guardian, and The Syndicate walk away. Mensa HQ kicks Vanguard on the way out, waking the alliance up.
Rose:
Vanguard? Are you alright?
Vanguard:
angrily
No! No I'm not. I thought we were going to be friends, not a punching bag. We're through!
Vanguard stumbles off, wincing in pain. Rose and Viridian Entente are alone except for United Purple Nations.
United Purple Nations:
Great shows guys, I must be off though. Try not to suck so much next time.
United Purple Nations strides away.
Viridian Entente:
​What just happened?
Rose:
​Maybe later VE, maybe later.
End Scene 1
Act 3
Scene 2 - United Purple Nation's underground headquarters
Scene: The room is massive, dark, and menacing. United Purple Nations sits at the head of a long table, with lights shining from behind casting menacing shadows on the video screens lining the walls. Sheepy is on one of them discussing taxes. There is a knock from somewhere in the darkness.
United Purple Nations:
Come in!
The Dutch East India Company and Brotherhood of the Clouds emerge from the darkness and sit down on either side of the table, a few chairs away from United Purple Nations.
United Purple Nations:
Welcome my friends. This meeting of The Covenant is now in order.
Brotherhood of the Clouds:
So, how did the operation go?
The Dutch East India Company:
​Yeah, were you successful?
United Purple Nations:
Aside from a small hacking issue, the operation was a complete success. Thanks to a bit of persuasion, all our enemies attacked each other, leaving them all weakened. We now control the majority of the alliances in the world, and our opposition has been rendered impotent. We are one step closer to world domination!
Brotherhood of the Clouds:
Wow! That's amazing news, great job UPN!
The Dutch East India Company:
Indeed, it was a masterful work.
United Purple Nations:
Now now, our job isn't complete just yet. There are a few loose ends left, and they need to be taken care of. Now, here's how we're going to do it........
End Act 3
Well, that's that. Even though it was regretfully delayed, I hope you guys enjoyed this play, and look forward to the next coming out soon!
Have a good day!
