End Time!
“You! You! How could you be so cruel?” Cybele, the goddess, enters the darkroom and yell with pain in her eyes.
Zeus, the greek God, take a sip from his mild drink. Then, he turn his chair around and looks at her with a grin.
“Well, why wouldn’t I? After all, I’m the God of all Gods”. His voice roared in the room.
“But they were our creations. Do you realize what have you done?” Cybele replies with wet red eyes.
It was then when Faunus, another roman godess, enters the room.
She noticed Cybele is about to cry but this isn’t the first time Zeus is behaving like this. He has always been this stubborn.
“And don’t you think that those who got killed were my creation too?” Zeus asked ruthlessly.
“You could teach them a lesson. Why do you have to do that?” Faunus couldn’t stop herself from interfering now.
“Because they deserve this!” Zeus seemed unbothered.
“Do they deserve this? This?” Cybele said helplessly.
“Whatever! I can do whatever I want! Now it’s better that you both should leave” Zeus ordered.
“I remember how humans were crying for help and prayed regularly to me to end that fire but you took away all my powers”. Cybele feel the wrath in Zeus’s voice but she continued. She doesn’t want to give up that easily.
“Right. But they played their part in ruining the forests? And Cybele, I don’t know why you came back again? I guess we had this discussion before”. Zeus replied and refills his glass.
The air felt strange. One can hear the silence vividly. They all sat there quietly as they were waiting for someone else to speak first.
“And Faunus! you’re saying that humans weren’t responsible for that amazon rainforest incident?” Zeus broke the silence.
“They are responsible but-“ Faunus said.
“Didn’t they illegally cleaned the forest area for farming and stuff?” He interrupted.
“Yes, but not all of them! Not all of them!” Faunus replied in furious tone.
” But okay. I accept that some of them deliberately started blazes in their effort to clear land and stuff. But they had no idea that it’d result in this” Cybele added.
“So what? I did what was suppose to be done! And Faunus, I do not like that tone” Zeus roared again.
“You are again misusing your power!” Faunus murmured.
“Yeah right. Just like humans” He smiled. It felt that Zeus was enjoying this gathering.
“We can not let this happen!” Cybele cleared her throat and said in a strong voice.
“Yeah right. you have to fight us. We’re here to save the world from you”. Faunus nodded.
He looks at them with surprise.
“Really? I have repeatedly told you that humans are selfish. They won’t care about anything when it comes to their benefit. They do not care about 2 million animal deaths, I’m telling you but, Oh well-“
“Zeus. Please I beg you. Give them another chance” Cybele cried.
“Go! Just run! This is your last chance” Zeus roared in anger.
“No. We won’t. We are here to fight you. They did a mistake but ending the world isn’t what they deserve.” Faunus defended humans.
“But you’re powerless. I won’t fight with you so-“
Zeus ordered Alaska to put them in prison until the world is on break.
Then it all turns dark.

Then, a student, wearing a tree costume, displayed a chart that says:
” Do not kill us.
It’s our home.
What’d you feel if someone destroys your world?”
The play ends with a standing ovation and my team of “class-03” wins the best play award.
I, looked at my students, with pride as finally my hardwork pays off.
