SCENE ONE

<!-- A class is in session. The teacher at the helm is grasping an absurd amount of money before just before pocketing it. -->

Teacher. ( Pointing to a student raising hand. ) You.

Student One. Well, in answer to your question instructor, I would use my Voxian abilities to bring the support pillars down, thus disabling our enemies.

Teacher. ( Pausing and sighing. ) No, no, no! ( Slamming hand into opposing fist. ) Student, you have a choice, take a zero entry on your response, or head to library to research how the great master Voxians would have handled a similar situation. Then, if you want a chance at a worthwhile grade on this, a one thousand word essay of academic quality on the proper way to handle a situation as the one I just described is due in my hand tomorrow. Any students that assist you will receive five points extra credit.

Classroom. ( Collective gasp! )

Student One. Well, I guess I have to try the library.

Teacher. Good idea. Class dismissed.

* The students exit as the curtain descends.


SCENE TWO

* The curtain rises and there is a small group of students beside student one attempting to research the project in a massive book shelf.

Student One. So many Voxian histories, so many great masters. Where should we start?

Student Two. May as well just close your eyes, reach out, and walk forward.

Student Three. First book you touch is it.

* As Student One reaches out Student Two shoulder nudges Student One which results in a particular book being selected.

Student One. Very funny.

Student Three. Actually, it was, kind off.

Student Two. What is in that one?

* The curtain descends …
