Enjoy, people ^^
Scene; Chat
Its late at night. In a room from the mansion, sounds of bed sheets are heard- its Rogue, trying to sleep. She feels restless, without deciding which pose to stay in. Undoubtedly, she cant sleep. She keeps moving from one side to another, but gives up and sits on the bed. She takes the clock from her bedside table, and sighs. Its 3 oclock in the morning.
Rogue exits her room with a robe on, walking towards the bathroom, but she hears a sound. It isnt monotone, rather rhythmical, but calm. Curious to know where it comes from, she walks closer, realising that the sound is
music.
She walks through the corridor, until she stops in front of a room. The music room. She leans out on the door and sees that its Beast playing the piano. She listens attentively, without a peep. It appears that Beast didnt hear her coming, and keeps playing the piano.
He plays the last few notes, and his hands leave the keyboard.
Rogue: That
was lovely.
Beast turns round, surprised, and smiles.
Beast: Moonlight Sonata. Ludvig Van Beethoven.
Beast: Forgive me if I woke you up-
Rogue: Thats ok, Ive been awake for a while.
Rogue: Looks like Im not the only one.
Beast (smiles) : Before, I used to come here to think
and I still do it.
Pause.
Beast: Do you know how to play the piano?
Rogue: No. Well, my mother used to play and tried to teach me, but
I had already escaped from home.
Beast: Come, sit here. (he moves a bit away from the piano stool, leaving space for her to sit)
Rogue: What?
Beast: Come here, with me. Ill give you some piano lessons.
Rogue doubts and shakes her head a bit.
Rogue: No
no. I better not.
Beast: Dont worry, I dont bite. Well, sometimes (smiles)
Rogue: No, no its not that. I cant touch people, Mr McCoy.
Beast raises his head and nods.
Beast:You must be Rogue, no?
Rogue: Yes.
Beast: Well, Rogue, that doesnt matter- I can teach you anyways. Come on.
Rogue walks slowly towards the piano. She sits next to Beast.
Beast: Lets see if my piano lessons can help you get some sleep. (smiles)
Rogue smiles politely.
Beast: Well, then. Well begin with the basics, hm? The treble clef. Do (plays a key) Your turn (points at a key more to his left) Place your right hand in these five keys. (Rogue obeys) Okay, play.
A key is heard.
Beast: Re.
Rogue imitates him.
Beast: Mi.
Rogue continues.
Beast: Fa.
Rogue repeats the sound.
Beast: So.
She plays the last key.
Beast: Thats it. Now
(he plays the notes one after the other)
Rogue tries to imitate him but misses.
Beast: Its okay. Lets see
He holds her wrist, covered by the robe.
Beast: Why! You sure are tense. Perhaps you could
He looks at her, releasing her wrist, and observes the expression on her face.
Beast: May I know whats the matter, Rogue? Its
its the professor? (he moves his hand towards her hair)
Rogue: Please, dont touch me. Please.
Beast moves his hand away.
Rogue: It isnt just the professor. Its
its this. (stares her hands)
Beast: Theyre beautiful.
Rogue: But they kill. (a tear runs over her cheek) I dont know
what to do.
Carefully, he dries her tear with his long, sharp nail.
Beast: Are you thinking of recurring to the cure?
Rogue: Yes. It will finish everything off.
Beast: Are you certain about that?
Rogue sighs, and thinks for a moment.
Rogue: No.
Beast: Believe me, it wont.
Rogue: You sure? I mean, have you ever
thought of doing the same? Have you ever... (shakes her head) wished to be human again?
Pause. Beast glances at the piano and plays a few keys.
Rogue: Sorry-
Beast: Never mind. And youre right. I considered it. The government committed an atrocity to use the cure as a weapon
so I forbid myself to approach Worthington Labs. But
even so
Rogue plays some notes.
Beast: Rogue, I ignore if you tried with all your might, but like any student here, you have to learn to control your powers. Id like to remind you that, after all, thats why you came here, no?
(The camera focuses the rose vase on the piano) You might be mortal if youre touched
(close-up of his hand about to touch the thorns) but if youre touched with care
(holds the rose, his finger tips avoiding the thorns) you will give off your beauty. (smells it)
Rogue smiles a bit.
Beast: Im sure youre a strong girl, Rogue. (lays his hand on her shoulder) It would be aggravating if you head to the easy track.
Rogue thinks for a while.
Beast: Well, shall we continue?
Rogue: No
I think that
Im starting to get sleepy.
Beast: Really? This must be a record.
Rogue giggles.
Rogue: (smiles): Thank you, Mr. McCoy.
Beast: (smiles back): Good night.
Rogue: Good night.
Rogue exits the room. Beast, thoughtful, stares at the rose, moving it between his thumb and index.
Beast: Ow!
He drops the rose and looks his hand. His forefinger is bleeding. Suddenly, we see that the wound begins to heal itself. He leaves his hand open and closes it.
