Kabuki Warriors Game Script



          INT. POORLY ANIMATED SET IN EDO                                  
                                                                           
                              SHIROKO                                      
                    Kabuki is a traditional form of                        
                    Japanese theater.  It was founded                      
                    early in 17th century by Okuni, a                      
                    shrine maiden who brought unique                       
                    and lively dance style to dry river                    
                    beds of ancient capital city of                        
                    Kyoto, and over the next 300 years                     
                    this has somehow developed into a                      
                    X-Box video game.  Where are my                        
                    Kabuki dance-partners?                                 
                                                                           
                              GENKI/LIGHTWEIGHT COMPANY                    
                    Sorry, never finished them.  A few                     
                    of us decided to go smoke some                         
                    ganja and we sort of forgot about                      
                    the game until a day before the                        
                    release.  Improvise.                                   
                                                                           
          SHIROKO channels his CHI inwards and creates TWO DOUBLES of      
          himself.                                                         
                                                                           
                              SHIROKO                                      
                    And now we will continue Kabuki                        
                    tradition by journeying to Kyoto                       
                    and battling many 2-Dimensional                        
                    figures for money. KIAI!                               
                                                                           
          SHIROKO and HIS DOUBLES move their dots across the map to        
          the next town.                                                   
                                                                           
          INT. POORLY ANIMATED SET IN RANDOM SETTING WITH JAPANESE         
          NAME                                 
                                                                           
          Japanese STEREOTYPES appear and battle SHIROKO.                  
                                                                           
                              SHIROKO                                      
                    Ah-ha!  Your skin made of pasty                        
                    facial cream prohibits you from                        
                    moving side to side.  Prepare to                       
                    meet super hand detachment attack.                     
                    KIAI!                                                  
                                                                           
          His HAND separates from his body and smacks STEREOTYPE.          
          Meanwhile, developers from GENKI/LIGHTWEIGHT COMPANY take        
          sticks and bang on empty metal garbage cans to emulate sound     
          effects.                                                         
                                                                           
                              STEREOTYPE                                   
                    Impressive display.  Allow me to                       
                    look silly and defeat you with                         
                    homosexual prowess.  KIAI!                             
                                                                           
          JAPANESE STEREOTYPE expands his pants and begins FLUTTERING      
          through the air.  He tries to kick SHIROKO, but SHIROKO’S        
          HEAD detaches from his body and evades the blow.  SHIROKO        
          then swings his stick and it triggers an EXPLOSIVE PACK, we      
          assume, on STEREOTYPE.  A GALLON of blood explodes.              
          STEREOTYPE does the same.  This repeats back and forth until     
          the ENERGY BAR drops to nothing, or the screen is covered        
          entirely in BLOOD.                                               
                                                                           
                              MORTAL KOMBAT FANS                           
                    This is getting boring.                                
                                                                           
          SHIROKO and STEREOTYPE stop fighting, strike a pose at the       
          audience, and they begin DANCING.  This is absolutely            
          FUCKING RIDICULOUS.  Eventually one of them drops                
          dead.  This whole scene repeats itself in different towns        
          and locations until Kyoto has been reached.                      
                                                                           
                                                            GAME OVER.
