"Oh, Achlan...I love you..." The queen leaned over, walking toward her love.
"HOLD IT RIGHT THERE!" The furious prince drew his sword, walking toward the traitor, Achlan.
Achlan simply stood, staring down the opposition. He calmly drew forth his blade, and uttered..."Line!"
An audible "ARRRRRRRRRRRRRGHHHHHH!" could be heard from off stage. The director stormed onto the stage, knocking over a fake tree on his way over. "THAT'S THE FIFTH TIME TODAY! WHY CAN'T YOU LEARN YOUR LINES?" The actor simply shrugged. "@#%$! WHY THE @#%$ CAN'T YOU LEARN YOUR @#%$ LINES?"
"Well, you don't have to get that emotional...it's just lines." The actor sighed and leaned on the 'castle.'
"THAT'S IT! YOU'RE ALL FIRED! I'M SICK AND TIRED OF ALL YOU @#%$ ACTORS @#%$ RUINING MY @#%$ SHOWS!" He pointed at the door, shoving the poor actor playing Achlan through first, and the others, not wanting to be thrown into a wall, obliged. The director sat down on the 'castle' steps. "Dammit, now where am I going to find another set of actors? The show's tonight!" He put his hands on his face, then an idea hit him. "THAT'S IT!"
Finding a piece of parchment, he scribbled on it, and put the sign on the outside of the theatre. The sign read:
"ACTORS NEEDED! EXCELLENT PAY! INQUIRE WITHIN!"
The director figured the 'excellent pay' part would attract many people. So, he simply sat back, and waited.
