The Hunt – A one act play
I
Martyr: I hope you have been practicing because we are going to backgammon soon.
Alchemist: No, friend, I hope you have been practicing. When may I accept said rematch?
Martyr: No my friend, I hope you have been practicing. It shall happen on the next full moon.
Alchemist: Sorry, man. Actually, Death and I will be busy aerial werewolf hunting on the next full moon (it’s kind of a side-activity on our previously planned tofu hunting expedition). So, unfortunately, we will have to reschedule.
Martyr: That is fine, just don’t hunt me…I allowed some doctors to do tests on me for about half a million Lei, it resulted in my body turning into pure tofu.
Alchemist: Hmm…I’m afraid I can’t make any promises. It’s really Death’s call, not mine, so you should state your case to him. I wouldn’t get your hopes up, though.
End of act I
