Intro: The screen is dark. Suddenly a single light illuminates an entity standing alone in an empty room. The being is wearing a large billowing cloak with the hood drawn up shrouding its face in shadows. It is also holding a large scythe. The entity slowly raises its hand up and pulls down its hood revealing a dark-haired man under it. The man smiles at the camera and starts to speak.
Angelo: Hello there. My name is Angelo Delle Morte and as you most likely can guess from my appearance I am the deity known as Death. I am here to tell you a story about myself. The reason I am doing this is simple. (He pauses) I lost a bet with my twin sister and so now I must tell people an embarrassing story about myself. Anyway, here is a little is a little background before I begin. You see even powerful deities like me need a vacation every now and then. So, after 10,000 years I took mine. I decided to stay at a beachside hotel for a year and then get back to work. Sadly, on the day I checked in my sister Life and my best friend Lady Fate played a prank on me. They, unfortunately, like to do this a lot, (Shouting off to the side of the room) BECAUSE THEY ARE JERKS THAT ENJOY MAKING ME SUFFER! (The sound of two girls laughing can be heard from the area where he shouted at. Angelo looks back at the camera) But anyway like I said I had just checked into the hotel and had gotten into the elevator with my luggage when I was joined by a very pregnant mortal. (The lights cut out. The screen fades back in showing Angelo now in a black suit in an elevator. The doors open and lets a pregnant woman on)
(Ding)
Angelo: Oh! Ah, what floor.
Katie: 19th please.
Angelo: Ah. Sure. (Pressing the button for the floor right under his)
Katie: Thank you. (A small smile on her lips)
Angelo: You’re welcome.
(Elevator music is playing in the background only just covering up the soft hum of the elevator as it ascends. As they near the top the elevator suddenly lurches)
Katie: Ahh! (Stumbling into Angelo)
Angelo: Oof! (Getting the wind knocked out of him but quickly uses the wall to keep them both upright)
Katie: Oh! Sorry about that.
Angelo: (Stumbling over his words while also helping her stand on her own) Oh… Uh, no, it’s ah, its fine, it wasn’t your fault you didn’t mean to stumble it was the elevator. It stopped so suddenly and you lost your balance and I just happened to be here, so it’s fine.
Katie: (Chuckling) Thank you anyway for catching me before I fell.
Angelo: Eh… No problem. (Shaking his head to clear it) Anyway we should focus on why the elevator stopped. (Walking to the control panel)
Katie: Your right, that is probably more important right now. Do you think it was anything serious?
Angelo: (Staring at the panel in thought) I am not sure, it could be nothing. I am going to use the emergency phone to call the lobby and see what is going on.
Katie: I hope this doesn’t take too long I am supposed to meet my husband in our room, and he has been so overprotective lately since I am due any day now.
Angelo: Oh. Ah… Well congratu… Oh yes hello, um I am calling from one of your elevators which has stopped moving…... Yes, there is one other woman with me…… We are on the west side of the hotel…. (Looking at the floor indicator above the door) Ah. We appear to be stuck between the 17th and 16th floor……. No, we are both ok and have no injury we are just stuck in here…... Ok well how long will that take?...... Ok thank you. (Hanging up) Well it looks like we are going to be here a while, they will try and get us out as soon as possible but they are unsure how long it will take.
Katie: Damn it. This was supposed to be a relaxing vacation not some stupid drama. Well might as well get comfortable. (Putting her bag down then placing one hand on the wall and another on her stomach trying to ease her way to the floor to sit down)
Angelo: Oh! Here let me help you. (Taking her arm to help her sit down)
Katie: Thank you, I swear to you this used to be much easier.
Angelo: (Chuckling at her joke) I bet it was.
(The camera fades out)
