SCENE 1
Gerald, Klein and Fred in the classroom – on their seats.
Fred: The king wants to kill the knight.
Klein and Gerald shushed him frantically.
Gerald:*whispered* Stupid! Do you wanna get caught by the pawns! They’re clearly everywhere!
The three looked around and they caught some classmates staring at them – obviously listening for information or rewards.
Klein:*whispered* The enemy’s queen is anxious as well… *giggled* I thought Milk was popular in the game.
Gerald:*whispered* Milk is..but everyone thought Milk is innocent and plainly nice.
The associates held their laughter to the irony.
Fred:*whispered* Well, nobody really expected it since Milk always declines a position *signals to get closer* but now he’s ready to play.
Gerald: *out loud* Our king is mad! *in normal voice* and here comes the teacher.
Math teacher enters. All in class went back to their respective seats but continued to gossip.
SCENE 2
Lunch break. At the canteen, the white bishop sat across his king and no one suspected a thing.
White Bishop: You should eat pineapples. Its dietary fiber will put you in great shape.
White King: I’m not that fat.
White Bishop: Just being a good friend here.
White King: The lambs in wolf’s clothing are in perfect position.
White Bishop: I’m scared.
White King: It’s normal.
The school’s principal enters. She tapped the black night by the shoulders and he followed her to the office.
White King: *whispers* It’s a checkmate.
White Bishop: *whispers* But their queen is still there.
White King: What is your dominant hand Syd?
White Bishop: My right?
White King: *whispers* Imagine losing that for the rest of your life. *leaves the table*
White Bishop: *follows* Their queen could still help them survive the year-there might be great bumps on the way but they’ll overcome this and worst of all, *whispers* the rook is too observant… she might know you’re the king in a month!
White King: Then it’s your job to make her silent.
White Bishop: *shocked*
White King: We’ll be late if you’ll keep staring at the floor.
White Bishop: How?
White King: *Sighs* She’s your cousin right?
White Bishop: *stuttering* You planned this all along didn’t you?
White King: I would not be here if I didn’t know anything… you know me Syd *whispers to his ear* I was a rook… the rook of the undefeatable king.
White Bishop: *still in pause* Youwere the great secret…
White King enters the classroom.
SCENE 3
At the principal’s office. The principal closed the door and the curtains.
Principal: David, why did you beat Cindy?
Black Knight: She was bullying my brother ma’am.
Principal: Miss.
Black Knight: Miss.
Principal: You do know you’ll be expelled by what you did David?
Black Knight: I wasn’t thinking that because I know what I did is good.
Principal: There is no good in hitting a girl David!
Black Knight: Are you saying that because you’re a woman, miss or you pity Cindy than my brother?
Principal: No. None of those David! Look, what you did is completely wrong. No one should hurt anyone- isn’t your father a general David? Did he notteach you those lessons?
Black Knight: He taught me to defend those who are weaker than me.
Principal: There’s nothing going on between Cindy and Daniel than little fights of who should hide or go seek.
Black Knight: She told my brother was a pussy Miss and that is a big insult for me and my brother!
Principal: Kids can be very rude David, you know that!
Black Knight: She also pushed him off the stairs while they were playing because he was about to win! And while he was crying and bleeding, everyone was just laughing at him and calling him a pussy! They were clearly planning that! They’re bullying him!
Principal: Silence David! You got it all wrong. It was just an accident because the janitor was cleaning the stairs at that time and they were running.
Black Knight: The third graders were already calling him gay, faggot because he usually plays with the girls, he told me it was because the boys in his class were too harsh on games and his drama by the stairs just proves hi-
Principal: That’s enough David!... because of the principles and strict rules of this school.. you are expelled from Frudel Academy.
*silence*
Principal: I’m sincerely sorry.
David: I guess I can do nothing but accept my fate.. and since I am free from the binds of this institution and I’ll go far away from here because of many reasons, I have to tell you how things are done around here miss.
Principal: *clears throat* Well, I’ve been in service for years David… but nobody dared to tell me the truth about the hidden system of this school that has been shared by the students for ages. How can I trust you if all the students lied and left because of this information?
David: The black king is my best friend. He will protect me no matter what… and I just have to tell you this because the current white king..could behead anyone.
SCENE 4
In the grade eightsection ‘a’ classroom. Physics prelim examination is being held in the class.
White Bishop: *whispers* Ma’am Hayli is cheating. Please don’t look, she’ll suspect I told you.
Physics teacher: *whispers* Thank you for telling the truth Syd. I’ll call her attention later.
SCENE 5
Next day at lunch.Rooftop.
White Knight: David got expelled, Hayli as well..what am I in this game anyway?
White Rook: You ask me, I’m just in the same page as you. Actually, you not really, cause you haven’t named any spies yet.
White Knight: Hello, we are both assigned to do that job.
White Rook: So how did Milk do it this time?
White Knight: You know, cheating is a crime in this school so Hayl-
White Rook: No, no, no, that is not what I meant. I’m asking why Syd betrayed his blood?
White Knight: Milk knows he has bad blood.
White Rook: Family issues? Seriously? But Syd is always quiet about the details.
White Knight: Nothing can enter nooks and crannies like water and water is liquid, as of Milk is liquid as well.
White Rook: Now I know why he invited you, you might be sporty but you are a smarty.
Both enjoyed their witty remarks.
Black King: *clears throat to get their attention* gentlemen, have you seen Qib?
The teammates were surprised.
White Rook: *nervous* Hey, how long have you been here Ced? We didn’t notice you? Sorry..
Black King: It’s ok, so where is Qib?
White Knight:*nervous* Qib? He might still be in the reading room. It’s the last place where I saw him.
Black King: Ok, thank you. Sorry for disturbing.
White Knight: *nervous* S’ ok.
Black King leaves.
White Rook: Do you think he heard anything?
White Knight: We didn’t go through too much details..it’s ok.
White Rook: *sighs in relief*
SCENE 6
At the reading room. The white king was alone, reading.
Black King: Qib!
White King: Ced?
Black King: *hugs Qib* The enemy took my best friend.
White King: I know, I’m really sorry..for your loss.
Black King: Qib, I’m scared.
White King: It’s normal, love. But you are in a great war, you must be brave.
Black King: Why won’t you be my lady, Qib?
White King: You know I hate this childish gamesCed- no actually, it’s not childish, it’s dangerous. And I’ve been thinking lately.. it would be better if you quit... Don’t you want us to be together, happy and free?
Black King: No! You know I can’t quit! *turns his back*
White King: Love, *hugs him* I know you’re very happy that the former victor chose you to be his rightful heir even there are a lot of leaders in this school… I know you deserve it but *forcefully turns Cedand kissed him gently* I don’t want the white king to damage you so much that you can’t stand back… I’ve heard a lot of rumors- of him causing people to get expelled because of reasons that could lead to nowhere. Ced, if you leave me here, May will hurt me just to get you back to her- and I don’t want that to happen because I love you so much, I could die.
Black King: Oh, mi corazon. I would never leave you! I would die as well if you’re not next to me. But don’t you worry, I still have many pieces to use and transform. I will win this game; and before we go to college, I will tell everyone were in a relationship that nothing can stop!
White King: Of course.
White Bishop enters. White king and black king moved apart instantly.
White Bishop: Hello… guys… umm… mind if I use the reading room as well.
White King: Sure.
Black King: Yeah, I’ll be leaving. *slowly leaves the room* We were just practicing a play about two best friends in an adventure and the other almost fell off a cliff. *laughs*
White King: Practicing! * laughs*
White Bishop: Ok.
Black king leaves the room. Those who remained waited for him to disappear in the corridors.
White Bishop: *whispers* He’s really under your fingers isn’t he?
White King: *whispers* No, he’s under the ground which I stood on. I guess I could call it ‘his grave’… and why are we whispering? This is soundproof room.
White Bishop: I think this is why the Lord God identified revenge as a grievous sin.
White King: *reads the daily news paper of the school* We all know I was the rightful white king because my efforts to cause this school to only have two sides, but since he insist I’ll be better as a follower since he saw I always do it, I guess I should take what’s truly mine forcefully even it should be given with at most gratitude.
White Bishop: Is it really because the former white king is jealous of your wisdom? Or his decision is truly better.
White King: *Stares at him and his brows were raised*
White Bishop: Sorry, that was a stupid question… so, here’s another offensive question, we’re you really threatened by the foe’s rook or you’re just trying to be on my good side?
White King: Now, I’ll tell you the secret why she’s going out of the picture. *smiles* Hayli and May became best friends because of their parent’s business and since they’re very close when one slips, the other should be as well; and nobody can tell Hayli is cheating because of her family’s money and influence, including her position at school unless your May, so she’ll blindly accuse the black queen instantly because of that fact, then she’ll tell her parents about it and because of that, the wealth of May will go in a struggle for Hayli’s family controls the shipping part.. *inhales* and both will be out of the picture as the outcome.
White Bishop: Are you a descendant of Jesus? If so, I won’t question.
Klein, one of white pawns entered.
Klein: Here for report my king.
White King: Speak.
Klein: Our spies had heard, the enemy is hiring more spies to catch you and the black king is very angry because his queen is not that capable to provide financial assistance on the upcoming events.
White Bishop: We expected, anything else?
Klein: Nothing too bad, things are just getting better since many have thought to join on our side since the other is starting to fail while we are just increasing in number and in trust.
White King: Trust, just like honesty, is a lonely word but if we put a great number and a deceiving meaning to it, we can build a very convincing system… which is happening now, yet it won’t last that is why we have to maintain the increase and lesser the information of what’s going on to make the lower onesfollow without questionsand feel stronger because of the population, and of course, popularity.
White Bishop: Always the truth your Highness.
White King: Why are you so formal all of a sudden Syd?
White Bishop: Sorry. *smiles*
White King: Meeting here is done..and Klein, don’t forget the wisdom that I shared. Tell it to the other pawns to give them further reasons to gather more than a million on our side.
Klein: Yes, your Excellency.
SCENE 7
Before everyone in class is released that day, the homeroom teacher announced the upcoming events of the year.
Homeroom teacher: General Assembly, individual subject’s month, intramurals, no class days, other events... what did I miss?
Black King: I guess you saidall, Sir.
Homeroom teacher: Oh yeah, the special guess of this year to be one of the judges of all festivities, is no other than last year’s champion or the one graduated with most of the awards, alumnus Tamil Crete
Everyone stands and claps. Tamil enters proudly and it caused an uproar of praise. The black king shakes his hand while the white king rolls his eyes.
Homeroom teacher: Everyone be calm! It’s just another human being. Sit and be quiet or I’ll except you in all of the occasions.
The class was suddenly behave and quiet.
Tamil: Savage as always Sir? Hello everyone! Hello Qib.
White King: Hi.
Tamil: Cold as always.. So! I’ll make this short because I have other classes to tell this too and I’m losing my voice now; *all laughs* The biggest points I’ll give to, as always it would be on the ‘team work’ criteria because blah, blah, blah it’s better to lose with your friends than to lose alone, which is the truth! *all laughs again*
Homeroom teacher: Tamil, do it properly or I’ll tell the school head about your hidden agendas in class.
Tamil: Your still use the ‘your father is the school head so be perfect’ card even I’ve graduated? Our really slay’n past your golden age.
Homeroom teacher: Don’t you dar-
Tamil: Ok! I’ll be serious, sheesh! This year will be like other years but we’ll focus less on the spending and more on the creativity by reclining. Helping nature and stuff because global warming is real and issues like those… so! I’ll be expecting you to use materials that would look like trash but not smell like one! *all laughs*
Homeroom teacher: *raises his brow*
Tamil: Sorry.. I just can’t help it, you know, I was the class clown. And let’s get back! I would also be the one to pick what things to debate this English month so be ready with your clever words and don’t let Qib enter because that just means, it’s decided- *whispers* he wins everything.
White King: Mils!
Tamil: What!?
Homeroom teacher: Ok, that’s enough. We don’t need your presence now.You may go out.
Tamil: Really? You’ll just throw me away after you used me?
Homeroom teacher: You little pric-
Tamil: Ok! I’ll leave! Bye Qib! *winks at the white king*
White King: *shivers* *whispers* Disgusting.
The session ended and everyone went on their ways.
Black King: *whispers* Was he your ex?
White King: What? No.
Black King: Why are you so fast to deny?
White King: *whispers* Because I love you so much I didn’t want you to get jealous.
Black King: *smiles*
The white king was going to a secret place where a spy and him decided to talk about the black bishop and the principal.
Tamil: *grabs Qib by the arm to an isolated hallway*
White King: Tami-
Tamil: *kisses Qib passionately*
White King: *pushes Tamil* Let me breathe you faggot!
Tamil: Sorry, I just missed you.
White King: Fuck you. *tries to leave his grip*
Tamil: Hey, stay a little longer...
White King: I bet you do that to Benny as well to keep him spreading.
Tamil: Well, not actually *Qib struggles again* wait, wait, wait- what position did you take this time?
White King: None.
Tamil: Liar!
White King: Since you insist, I’m the Black King’s bitch. *Tamil slaps Qib*
Tamil: *grabs Qib’s face* You know you can’t do that, you’re mine and I could cut you from anything just to be my sex slave, if that’s true…*laughs* just joking!
White King: *exhales*I really hate it when you go possessive and aggressive..
Tamil: *continues to laugh then suddenly stops* I am a monster Qib, *releases Qib* you know that..so don’t do something stupid or I’ll get serious.
White King: Just another monster I can tame Tamil, nothing too special. *leaves* By the way, * paused to finish his sentence* my mother is putting bigger branches of our banks and other business across Asia and Europe, anytime now, we’ll be at the top… Take this as a warning Tamil, for scars won’t fade. *completely leaves*
Tamil: I always knew you’ll be better than this… but I pushed you too far.
SCENE 8
A week before the General Assembly, the blacks organized a meeting at one of the storage rooms in the library.
Black King: Report.
Yal: Our numbers are decreasing drastically, it just won’t stop no matter what we do and the white king is still unknown.
The black king held his anger in with an anxious moan.
Black King: What’s new? Queen, report!
Black Queen: I still can’t provide on most of the events but that’s not a problem, Tamil said we just need to be creative with the trash we collect.
Black King: How can we collect to make our booths and projects if everything is taken by the whites because clearly, they have all the hands they need! No, more than they need and want!
Black Queen: We can still make it happen. We have Del and Prale’s arts to have the best products and Roy’s innovative ideas could always come in handy.
Yal: Sorry to inform your Highnesses but Del and Prale are not helping us anymore, they’re silently taking the other side but Roy is still with us here.
Black King: *throws and destroys everything he can see and hold*
Everyone on the group kept their calm and watch him go wilder.
Black King: Alright! I had enough! I quit!
Black Bishop: Don’t. I’m still here to do the stuff you can’t.
Black King: Mist! Of course, what misery will you add?
Black Bishop: They call their king ‘Milk’. Which is very clever if you ask me but the only one who could inherit that name is Qib-
Black King: Qib, impossible! He can only hurt flies and nothing more!
Black Bishop: Because he’s special to you doesn’t mean he’s innocent to everything that is happening.
Black King: Shut your mouth or I’ll throw you out of a window.
Black Bishop: Third floor? I guess I could still survive but before you’ll try to kill me, listen to me first.
Black King: Alright, you’ll have your last words.
Black Bishop: We all know in class, he’s favorite food is milk.
Black Queen: I thought it was cum.
Black King: *Ced glared* May.
Black Queen: Just joking!
Black Bishop: Please let me continue without any disturbance. *everyone nodded* Since he’s favorite food is milk, that is his code name and have you all notice how Tamil treats him so nicely?
Black Queen: That’s because he’s his former rook… and I heard they were fuck buddies.
Black King: May for the last time!
Black Bishop: Yes! They were very close yet he wasn’t chosen to be the white king because of unknown reasons; also, as the rule says, if a team loses, they cannot appoint any heir and all must be built from dirt. It’s also suspicious why the current whites are unfamiliar, not too popular but very friendly with Qib.
Black King: Everyone is a friend to Qib. We all know that right? *everyone nods except May*
Black Queen: Sure, sure. But Ced, we should consider this, it’s very convincing. It could be the truth we could regret after all is done.
Black King: I will never believe you. Qib is..Qib would never be that bad.
Black Bishop: Your Grace, I just thought he’s silence is weird for even he was forced to be in a position this year, he didn’t budge unless… he already had a perfect position to move around. A very threatening position for as Tamil said ‘he wins everything’
*silence*
Black Bishop: You can dive further on this topic my king but before you do that, I would like to offer my philanthropist services since it would be needed in this group. And don’t you worry, I can multitask, I won’t leave my responsibilities as a bishop for those who need emotional, psychological help. I don’t need any rewards to my actions by the way, I’m too satisfied on my position for that.
Black King: Ok, I guess all is well in the end- I’m not quitting! Sorry, you’ll have to continue to carry this load *points at himself* also, thank you Mist.
Black Bishop: Anything for the team. *smiles*
The blacks started leaving the meeting room.
Black Queen: You clearly have a negative intension over this don’t you… oh my gosh! You want to be the next black king don’t yah! *kisses her teeth* sorry, you can’t buy us that easily.
Black Bishop: Put it on any way you want pretty princess. I will continue to do what I do best.
SCENE 9
After the General Assembly by the river at the far left side of the campus. White king and white queen walked the edges of the waters.
White Queen: Are you really gay or you’re just playing that personality to get the enemy?
White King: *giggles* Do you have a crush on me?
White Queen: Nah, Ced is my type.
White King: Then why are you on my side?
White Queen: I knew he would choose May even he’s totally done with her- *sighs* he’s stupid.
White King: *giggles again*
White Queen: You know what? You’re cute. Can I kiss you?
White King: Sure *they kissed*
When the kissed stopped the white queen grabbed him by the collar to kiss him much deeper, rougher.
White Queen: Can I suck you?
White King: *catching his breath* Sure.
After making out, they rested to continue talking about the team.
White King: This is why I insisted you must be my queen, Alma.You’re very alluring.
White Queen: Just tell me I’m fuckable because it’s more believable.
White King: Don’t you dare degrade yourself!
White Queen: Whatever! Can we just go back to topic now cause I have things to do.
White King: I’m giving you your first order now.
White Queen: Really!? Wow! This feels so legit! I’m really on a group and not just a shoefiller when a queen is not around.
White King: Oh humble one, you’ll be the key to our inevitable success dear.
White Queen: Tell me what to do! Do you want me to control the government of Manhattan? You know I can do that anytime you want me to!
White King: No, I won’t let you sweat too much. After all, you must always be pretty and shiny like those shoes, I love them by the way.
White Queen: You are totally my favorite person right now!
White King: Me too after your amazing blowjobs..let’s go back to the focus of this secret meeting.
White Queen: Yeah.
White King: I simply just want you to be the slutty girlfriend of the Black Bishop and make all his money spend on what you want- but it all would be a secret just like my gayness.
White Queen: Hello, I’m like the second richest person in this school! I don’t need him to buy me things to be the vainest of all.
White King: Darling, I just want you to do that for me so that none of his cents will be spent on their plans; which would lead them to be so helpless andunfunctional… You would do that for the group right? You would do this sacrifice and lead us to victory!?
White Queen: Yes! Yes. I would do anything to rule over the senior high and college bitches! And I won’t forget about you Qib… you’ll be my right hand, my husband in my success.
White King: Only time can tell my queen… By the way, my true purpose why I called your attention to talk to you privately is because I would like to sincerely thank and congratulate you on your triumph on blowing the black queen’s mind by your cheerleading skills and performance during the General Assembly. *picks a wild flower from the ground and gave it to the white queen*
White Queen: Oh, how sweet. *kisses his cheek* You’re totally my new boyfriend!
White King: *giggles* Keep up the good work queen Alma.
SCENE 10
Inside the classroom, the white night, rook and bishop gathered at a corner to talk privately. They were guarded by the pawns.
White Bishop: Panic is not an option in the current game. Milk has called someone to stop the rising hindrance.
White Rook: Is it Mr. Penguin? He was a great help on the teachers since he once worked at the Music and Arts department but I didn’t expect he’ll extend his help until now.
White Knight: You didn’t know?
White Rook: Didn’t know what?
White Knight: I thought were all that close to Milk.
White Rook: I don’t even know why I was a pointed as the rook for I’m clearly not an observant and a listener.
White Night: You tell me that, coach sees me nothing but a bench warmer.
White Bishop: Stop comparing your disadvantages! *everyone look at them but the white pawns shooed them to go back to their businesses* All of us, the white pieces are middleclass bastards. Milk is wise; the higher one knows none can tell someone who’s riding a high horse to go down and eat with the fools.
White Rook: So were the fools.
White Knight: It just a metaphor Jimmy. It’s just a battle strategy to make the blacks think their better than us.
White Rook: Ok- but what is it that I don’t know about Milk again?
White Knight: Their relatives. Milk and Mr. Penguin are nephew and uncle.
White Rook: Is that the reason why Milk was able to enter this school even Milk was not that rich and popular?
White Knight: It could be… and I guess the remaining question here is why Milk decided to be a king even though, as we witnessed throughout our friendship, Milk was never competitive and outgoing.
White Rook: I think Milk was just holding it in. All those years being under someone could make anyone curious to what it is on the top; ordering and speaking whatever they want.
White Bishop: For now, the truth is bitter for you to swallow but the things we will do this year could conclude what Milk truly desires… which would look evil but in the long run, all will benefit.
White Rook: Wait, I almost forgot. My secretary told me that the black bishop will support his team by taking most of the responsibilities of their queen- I guess shutting down the black queen is not enough after all.
White Knight: You really don’t know what’s going on don’t you.
White Rook: What?
White Bishop: Meeting adjourned.
SCENE 11
After midterms.At lunch. On the rooftop the black queen and king sat next to each other to comprehend their situation.
Black King: Were definitely loosing this year. We haven’t won anything yet!
Black Queen: What is your move now?...Ced, I think we really should watch Qib now. He might not have joined the debates last English month but those who won are all whites and they were his friends- and a spy told me he trained them.
Black King: Stop with this May! *sighs* My parents are asking me to leave the school before it all falls apart.
Black Queen: What? But-
Black King: My grades are falling because I thought if I give more effort to it than the usual, it would improve but look at what’s happening now… Everything is going straight to hell.
Black Queen: I’m sorry. I should have told the nerds to focus on the subjects than on the projects- You could have passed the test and- even the bishop is there to give a hand, he’s going it with the worst that he could! Giving alibis why he can’t spare even a dime on the major festivities… this is really heading nowhere but the end… I guess your parents are right, you don’t deserve this kind of failure.
Black King: But I don’t what to give up just yet May. And I clearly don’t want to leave this place that easily!
Black Queen: Is it because of Qib?
Black King: *looks in to her eyes in silence*
Black Queen: *kisses him without warning*
Black King: *pushes her away* May stop… I do love Qib.
Black Queen: Why do you love Qib? I did all I can so that you’ll always look at me. Look, *grabs her hair* I even cut this short because I’m so desperate for your love!
Black King: Enough May!
Pawn enters running.
Yal: Fire! Fire! Everyone is called out off the building immediately!
At the road in front of the school. All the students were safe.
Yal: They said that it started in the library and it cannot be stopped, because it has already consumed the old books.
Black King: Thank you for the report.
The black pawns positioned near the higher officials.
Black Queen: Well that’s a big lost for Frudel Academy. Where are the firemen anyway?
Black Rook’s Secretary: There’s a heavy traffic on the way here. They might arrive but the school will be gone by then.
Black Queen: That’s great! I think we could have sound reasons why we’ll be at another school in the middle of the year.
Black King: *continued to stare at the burning building*
Help arrive too late. There’s nothing left for the school but its tall frames and foundations.
SCENE 12
The students were forced to enroll at a sister school. Since the game must end with a winner, everyone was called to gather by the river banks for the final announcements and the recognition/victory speech.
The elevated ground near the river served as the center stage.
Tamil: Everyone! May I have your attention!
All went quiet and listened.
Tamil: Frudel Academy does not end here! It will be rebuild and the tradition will be continued to create more leaders and champions!
Everyone cheered.
Tamil: Since we all want to party and get on with the drinks. I’ll make this quick, so here’s the King of the Whites who broke all the records and proved perfection!
The crowd was excited to know Milk’s identity but they remained calm and silent.
Qib walks out of the audience and stood on the stage.
White King: Unfortunately, the white king cannot be present today.
The whites laughed.
White King: Just kidding. Seriously, I’m the white king.
All started talking to their friends, group mates and foes to know if Qib is really telling the truth or it’s all a prank until someone goes to take the mike.
Black King: Qib… you played me?
White King: Well talk later Ced. I have a speech to do… Ok everyone, settle down now!
The students continued to talk to each other. But the white officers immediately controlled the noise.
White King: I am here, today, on this grassy stage to tell you that you have been used- properly fooled. Don’t worry I was as well used when I served Milswhen he was the black king. I accepted the position of a pawn because I thought their reasons were real, but in the end I was just there to do the worst part of their jobs. Heck! I was the one who caused his landslide victory when I was promoted to be the black rook but I was still unrecognized because he claimed it all!...It was all dandy back then when I knew less but now I found out their cousins and all the other kings were related by blood to them. I guess I could say it was always a monarchy and never a democracy as they promised. Define democracy Mils.
Tamil did not answer.
White King: Democracy happens when power is distributed evenly and the ideas of the people are applied… is it really happening here or I’m just fucking blind!? *points at Tamil* You, it all started with you. I was once pure till you got your filthy hands all over me just to get your former bitch jealous! It was fun back then till it went serious… wasn’t it?
Black King: Why Qib? I trusted you… I loved you.
White King: Trust and love… I trust Mils as well; he trusted me because he thought I’ll remain stupid. It was mixed with lust as well but I rose from that. Then I learned to be a better student... I learned the devil’s tricks and scams now look what I have become!… a rotten Milk; whose not mad, but has gone too bad, a poisonous liquid who’ll kill anyone who dares to drink.
White Bishop: Qib, that’s enough.
White King: No Syd. They must know the truth. All of you have been played too damn dirty!
Tamil: Qib!... I’m sorry… I should not have done this to you.
Ced punches Tamil. The former king did not stand back.
Tamil: I thought you would like the challenge!… building a kingdom from scratch. I thought it would show your true potential.
White King: I did loved it Mils… thank you for always making me feel weak and helpless. But I wasn’t alone. I have used all the people on my team to get where I am now! I used their innocence as you used mine to get what I want..and that is this victory!... You all think you’re special and valued because you’re in a winning team!? No, you’re very wrong! None of you are victors except me in the end because that is how the system works!
Ceb: Qib please…
White King: That is why I have to destroy this school… and only fire can devour savagely as I… There are a lot of things you peasants have to thank me for but I don’t need your compliments… I need your revenge! A revolution against Cretes and all their distant relatives for they will continue to create evil if we won’t end their regime!
Everyone was awakened and cheered the victor and his decisions.
White King: No one will be victims and prisoners anymore… We will have our democracy!
All shouted ‘democracy’ and began pushing the foes to the rushing river.
White Knight: Qib, it won’t be a democracy if we kill them!
Everyone stopped their actions.
White King: As your new president, I would like to hear your voice by your acts.
All continued to push the monarchs to the river until the currents took them and drowned them, crushing them till the waters are red.
White King: Attention! *everyone behaved* I will need all of your assistance to form a new system. When this new institution is built, I want everything to be fair and square; the officers must serve the people not the people to serve the officers. The students will them be expected or required to serve the school to remain its peace, prosperity and order. Teamwork will not be too appreciated as individualism because from now and on, we will establish the ideal, and it is balance.
The higher officials as well as the pawns were shocked and terrified with the sudden events but with the new laws, truth will prevail.
SCENE 13
A month before the deadline of the construction of the new school building called Frudel University, Qib called a secret meeting with some old friends.
Qib: Glad you’re both not that late.
Ced and Tamil enters.
Ceb: I still don’t understand why we have to die in their eyes.
Tamil: Cousin it was for them to have a reason why the new system must be maintained.
Qib: Didn’t you like history Ceb? It’s always stated there that fear is a major factor why people are forced to move, to obey and to stay.
Ceb: I see… so why are we here again? Didn’t you want us to disappear?
Qib: Yes I do need that part but I didn’t want you both to miss this…
They followed him to a burning mansion in the woods.
Tamil: What the- Isn’t that your house?
Qib: Mother is inside.
Ceb: We should get help.
Qib: No need… I really want her to die so that I can inherit everything and quit school.
Tamil: I thought you like school.
Qib: See Mils… you don’t know me at all. Conquering college would feel the same as being the white king, and I just want to forget the past more than anything. That is why I’m joining the game of economy and politics in the real world and after that, is the galaxy, of course further on…
Ceb: And that would make you?...
Qib: The emperor of the universe… but still a bad milk from Milky Way.
