(Schoolyard scene)(Jake, Marlie, Harry walk into the scene)

Jake: Beautiful day, isn't it?

Marlie: Marvelous, I would say. How bout you, Harry?

Jake: Harry, are you okay?

Harry: I'm fine, it is quite a good day. It really is.

Jake: What are you looking at Harry?

Harry: It's those weird kids again. They are doing something weird, do you see it?

Marlie: Yeah, I do. What is that?

Jake: I don't know, but I am going to go find out. (starts to walk towards them)

Harry: Oh no, those guys are trouble. I'm going to get to class.

Marlie: I'm going to go with Jake. See you, Harry!

Harry: Yeah, if nothing happens to you.

Marlie: Come on Harry, don't be so negative!

Harry: Whatever, see you around. (Harry walks out of the scene)(Marlie goes over to Jake)

Marlie: What is going on?

Jake: Well, we are going to find out. Are you ready?

Marlie: Yes. What are you doing? (To Draco, Dagger, Heather, Scarlet)

Draco: None of your business. (Rudely)

Dagger: Now, now Draco, be nice. (Draco sighs)

Heather: Well, I mean, where were we?

Scarlet: Telling them what we are doing.

Heather: Well you won't understand it.

Dagger: It is very complicated to explain.

Marlie: Just tell us already.

Heather: You have to swear you won't tell anyone.

Jake: Fine, whatever.

Marlie: So what is that thing? (points to green slime in a container)

Heather: That is a thing that can do something we are not sure of yet.

Jake: Cool!

Marlie: Well we better get to class. The bell is going to ring soon.

Jake: Yeah. Bye. (Jake and Marlie start walking away)

Marlie: That was crazy. Do you think they were telling the truth?

Jake: Absolutely not.

Marlie: Me either. (Bell rings)

Jake: See you later Marlie!

Marlie: See you later Jake! (Both leave the scene in different directions)(Classroom scene)(Marlie sits next to Harry)

Harry: So, what were they up to?

Marlie: There was something that looked like green slime. They said they had no idea what it is or what it does. But I and Jake think differently.

Harry: Let's find out!

Marlie: Yeah. One question Harry, how?

Harry: First we get a group of people together. Then we spy on them. If they leave it somewhere, we take it.

Marlie: Let's text Jake.

Harry: Yeah, good idea Marlie. Here I will do it. (Pulls out fake phone)(pause)

Marlie: What did Jake say?

Harry: Says he's all in for it. (Marlie looks over)

Marlie: Tell him to meet me at my house after school tonight. My mom lets me have anyone over after school anytime.

Harry: Okay, He says he'll be there. (Bell rings)

Marlie: Wow class is over already. That was fast.

Harry: Wait a minute. Mr. Klumberg never showed up.

Marlie: Yeah, your right Harry. What if they took him?

Harry: Who?

Marlie: Dagger and that gang.

Harry: Yeah! What if they used that stuff on him?

Marlie: Oh no! What has happened to him? (Jake comes in)(panting)

Jake: I'm in. There was something weird that just happened.

Harry: Have you seen Mr. Klumberg?

Jake: I bet it was him. Come on follow me. It is very strange. (scene changes to hallway)

Marlie: What happened here?

Jake: Come and look over here. It gets stranger.

Harry: What the heck happened here!!!

(Mr. Klumberg walks onto the stage)

Mr. Klumberg: You three, come with me.

Jake: We have to get to lunch.

Mr. Klumberg: No lunch for you. Come with me or you are expelled.

(whispers)Harry: What the...? (All exit scene)(Classroom scene)

Mr. Klumberg: Get into those chairs, now. (Marlie, Jake, Harry hesitate to get into chairs)(3 sit down)(Chairs "trap" them)

Jake: Why can't we get up?

Mr. Klumberg: Stop struggling, your death will be much nicer then.

Marlie: What do we do Harry?

Harry: I have no idea... (Hermione runs in angrily)

Hermione: Mr. Klumberg, why do we always meet like this?

Mr. Klumberg: Hermione. What are you doing here?

Hermione: Release them now, Mr. Klumberg.

Mr. Klumberg: But...

Hermione: No buts.

Mr. Klumberg: Fine. Here. (Lifts them up, or pretends to and they stand up)(He leaves)

Harry:


(Author's Note) And Harry says nothing. In every one of my plays so far, why does someone or a group of people have to be weird? Why do all of my plays make no sense?
