FADE IN:

INT. BEGINNING - DAY
                                                            
(Introducing)
                                                            
                       ZEUS
      (Walks on stage)
I'm Zeus and I am the king of the
world. Just kidding, only to those
who believes me and bows down to
me. (Walks off stage)
                                                            
                       HERA
      (Walks on stage)
I'm Hera, the beautiful wife of
Zeus. Don't mess with my husband
or you'll all pay.
(Walks off stage.)
                                                            
                       POSEIDON
      (Walks on stage)
I'm Poseidon. I'm the best brother
out of Zeus and Hades. And I also
control the high seas.
(Walks off stage.)
                                                            
                       HADES
      (Walks on stage
       and bumps
       shoulders with
       Poseidon)
Well, I'm Hades. The better, and
more handsomer brother of Zeus and
Poseidon. I get to control the
riches of the wealth of the
mortals. And I also get to control
when the person dies.
(Walks off stage.)
                                                            

2.

                       ARTEMIS
      (Walks on stage)
I'm the older twin of Apollo by 9
days. I even helped my mom give
birth to Apollo. Oh, I forgot I am
the great and mighty Artemis.
(Walks off stage.)
                                                            
                       APOLLO
      (Walks on stage)
I'm Apollo the better looking twin
by the way. Anyway as my doofus
sister said, I'm the younger one.
We both control day and night.
That part she left out. Oh, I'm
also the smarter one.
(Winks and walks off stage.)
                                                            
                       HERMES
      (Walks on stage)
Anyway, enough with all that
sibling rivalry. I'm Hermes. The
best kid Zeus has out of all my 20
siblings. I know a lot. Anyway
introducing, my sister, my
favorite one out of all I have,
Aphrodite.
                                                            
                       APHRODITE
      (Walks on stage
       while waving arms)
Thank you! Thank you! Scram
Hermes, you did you're job.
                                                            
                       ZEUS
      (Rolls eyes and
       walks off stage)
                                                            
                       APHRODITE
Anyway back to me. I am the best
looking woman there is in the
whole world. But don't get on my
bad side, or that will be the end
of you. I'm the most favorite
daughter Zeus has. Just saying.
Anyway, basically I get to control
the beauty I give to the morals
            (MORE)

3.

                       APHRODITE (cont'd)
and I don't give them a lot. I
keep most to myself. Anyway, bye,
talk to you all later.
(Walks off stage.)
                                                            
                       NARRATOR/COP CARLISLE
      (Walks on stage)
Well, I'm glad that's over. I
thought it would never end.
Anyway, I'm the narrator, but I am
also Cop Carlisle. Two people, so
don't get me confused. Although it
maybe funny trying to figure out
who is who. But I'm just being
nice if I had a choice to be who I
wanted then bring in the trouble.
(Grins and Walks off stage.)
                                                            
 
INT. MOUNT OLYMPUS - NIGHT

                       ZEUS
      (Walks on stage.
       Sits on chair
       next to Hera.
       Everyone not

       continues to chat
       amking Zeus angry)
Quiet!
                                                            
                       HADES
Whoa man. No, need to yell. We are
all right here.
                                                            
                       ZEUS
      (Rolls eyes)
Anyway, we are here because
something very important has come
up.
                                                            

4.

                       ARTEMIS
      (Cross arms)
What's so important for all of us
to be here? I could be sleeping
right now. A girl gotta have her
beauty sleep.
                                                            
                       ZEUS
      (Gares at Artemis)
Well, since Miss. Complainer here
decided to complain, I'll let her
test out the mysterious portal
first.
                                                            
                       ARTEMIS
      (Wide eyes)
What portal? You never said
anything about a portal. Maybe my
lively twin over here would like
to go test it.
(Grin cheeky)
                                                            
                       APOLLO
      (Leans back in
       chair)
Leave me out of this. No need to
put me in something that I never
did.
                                                            
                       POSEIDON
      (Rolls eyes)
Zeus, where is this portal you
speak of?
                                                            
                       ZEUS
      (Points off stage)
Well, it's in Hera and I's
bedroom.
                                                            
                       POSEIDON
      (Gets up)
Lets go check it out first before
we start pointing fingers on who
goes and who stays.
                                                            
(Everyone walks off stage.)
                                                            

5.

                       NARRATOR/COP CARLISLE
      (Walks on stage)
Now, you see that even the Gods
and Goddesses fight. But will they
make up in the end? And where does
this mysterious portal leads to?
                                                            
 
INT. ZEUS'S AND HERA'S BEDROOM - MOMENTS LATER
                                                            
                       HADES
Where is this... Portal you speak
of?
                                                            
                       ZEUS
      (Gets ready to
       open the door)
Well, I'm sure you'll notice right
away.
                                                            
(Zeus open the door and everyone looks at the big portal
wide eyed.)
                                                            
                       HERMES
      (Put peace sign up
       and tries to walk
       out)
Well, Hermes is out! Peace!
                                                            
                       APHRODITE
      (Grabs Hermes back
       of shirt)
Not so fast. If I have to stay
here, you're coming with me.
                                                            
                       ZEUS
      (Grabs Artemis and
       puts her in the
       front)
Okay, Artemis you're up first.
                                                            
                       ARTEMIS
      (Wide eyes)
What! I thought you were kidding.
No way am I going through there
first. Apollo! You go first,
            (MORE)

6.

                       ARTEMIS (cont'd)
you're younger.
                                                            
                       HADES
What! No way.
                                                            
                       APHRODITE
      (Rolls eyes and
       push them both in
       the portal)
                                                            
(Everyone looks at Aphrodite in shock as Aphrodite shrugs
shoulders.)
                                                            
                       APHRODITE
Someone had to do it or we
would've been here all day.
                                                            
                       ZEUS
Well, how about Hermes and
Aphrodite go next, then Hades and
Poseidon. And last me and Hera so
I know you all will go through.
                                                            
(Everyone nods their head.)
                                                            
(Hermes grabs Aphrodite's hand and they both take a deep
breath and walks through.)
                                                            
(Then Poseidon tries to take Hades's hand but Hades slapped
him.)
                                                            
                       HADES
      (Glares at
       Poseidon)
Don't even think about it bro, man
up.
                                                            
(Hades walked through leaving Poseidon behind. The Poseidon
puts a finger in, then his whole hand. He slowly moved his
arm in then Hera pushes him in.)
                                                            
                       ZEUS
Hera, that was you're brother in
law.
                                                            

7.

                       HERA (and Zeus)
      (Walks into the
       poral)
                                                            
                       NARRATOR/COP CARLISLE
      (Walks on stage)
Is that the end of them, or is it
just the beginning?
                                                            
 
INT. CENTRAL PARK - MORNING
                                                            
                       ARTEMIS
      (Falls out and
       Apollo lands on
       her)
Rude much?
                                                            
                       APOLLO
      (Gets up and brush
       butt off)
Hey, it wasn't me.
                                                            
                       APHRODITE
      (Walks through the
       portal with
       Hermes)
Actually, it was me. If no on did
anything you both would be arguing
on who goes through that portal
all night... Or all day?
                                                            
                       HERMES
      (Looks around)
Where are we?
                                                            
(At that moment, Hades walked through with Poseidon trailing
behind.)
                                                            
(At that moment, Hades walked through with Poseidon trailing
behind.)
                                                            
                       POSEIDON
      (Looks around)
Whoa...
                                                            

8.

                       HADES
We are so not in Mount Olympus
anymore.
                                                            
(Zeus and Hera walked through and all the Gods and Goddesses
started to panic.)
                                                            
                       ZEUS
Quiet!
                                                            
(Everyone stops and look at Zeus.)
                                                            
                       ZEUS
      (Cross arms)
Now, considering no one knows
where we are lets go ask a mortal.
                                                            
                       HADES
      (Points at Cop)
You! Mortal!
                                                            
                       NARRATOR/COP CARLISLE
      (Points at self)
                                                            
                       ZEUS
      (Walks up to cop)
Yes, you. Tell me where are we?
                                                            
                       NARRATOR/COP CARLISLE
We are at the Big Apple.
                                                            
                       ZEUS
      (Grabs the cop)
Don't play jokes with me, mortal!
We are not inside an apple!
                                                            
                       NARRATOR/COP CARLISLE
      (Swats hands off
       of self)
Tough me again, and you will be
arrested.
                                                            
                       ZEUS
      (Lets go of Cop in
       shock)
I'm Zeus, King of all Gods and
Goddesses and mortals! You dare
            (MORE)

9.

                       ZEUS (cont'd)
order me around!
                                                            
(Cop puts Zeus to the ground and hand cuff him. Other Gods
and Goddesses saw and tried to use their powers but it
didn't work, so they attacked. and then the cop hand cuff
them all and stuffed them in the cop car.)
                                                            
                       NARRATOR/COP CARLISLE
      (sits in the front
       seat of the car)
What are your names?
                                                            
                       ZEUS
      (Points at each
       person by their
       name)
Well, I'm Zeus, That's Hera,my
wife, The twins, Artemis and
Apollo. That's my daughter,
Aphrodite. My son, Hermes. And my
two brothers, Poseidon and Hades.
                                                            
                       NARRATOR/COP CARLISLE
      (Squint eyes)
You mean like the Greek Gods and
Goddesses myths?
                                                            
                       APHRODITE
      (Looks at cop
       confused)
Myths?
                                                            
                       NARRATOR/COP CARLISLE
Yeah, myths. I can you show you in
the museum if you'll like.Just
don't get in trouble again.
                                                            
(All mummer in agreement.)
                                                            
                       ZEUS
      (Holds out hands)
Can you get this death trap off my
hands first?
                                                            

10.

                       NARRATOR/COP CARLISLE
      (Takes the cuffs
       off each person)
                                                            
                       HADES
Now we can go.
                                                            
                       NARRATOR/COP CARLISLE
      (Starts the car
       making everyone
       panic)
                                                            
                       ZEUS
Stop this vibrating at once!
                                                            
                       POSEIDON
Why is my butt becoming warm? This
is unnatural!
                                                            
                       NARRATOR/COP CARLISLE
      (looks in the back)
First of all, the car is supposed
to make the vibrating and second
of all, it's a seat warmer.
                                                            
(Then the radio starts making everyone scream)
                                                            
                       NARRATOR/COP CARLISLE
      (Rolls eyes)
It's just the radio. Can I get
started without any of you talking
now?
                                                            
                       APHRODITE
      (Climbs over to
       the front seat)
So... What's you're name?
                                                            
                       NARRATOR/COP CARLISLE
      (Drives off)
I am Carlisle.
                                                            
                       NARRATOR/COP CARLISLE
Which country were you in before
here?
                                                            

11.

                       APHRODITE
Well, I grew up in Mount Olympus.
                                                            
                       NARRATOR/COP CARLISLE
So you're from Greece.
                                                            
(Cop pulls in and stops in front of Museum.)
                                                            
                       NARRATOR/COP CARLISLE
      (Gets put of the
       car and opens the
       door for
       Aphrodite)
                                                            
                       APHRODITE
      (Get's put of car)
Thank you Sir Carlisle.
                                                            
                       NARRATOR/COP CARLISLE
It's just Carlisle.
                                                            
(Cop opens back door for the others who have been waiting
un-patently.)
                                                            
 
INT. IN MUSEUM - AFTERNOON
                                                            
                       ZEUS
      (runs up to a

                       HERA
      (Runs up to
       painting)
And a portrait me and my Peacock.

                       ARTEMIS (and Apollo)
      (Runs up to their
       chariots)
Our chariots!
                                                            

12.

                       POSEIDON
      (Runs up to
       trident)
My Trident!
                                                            
                       APHRODITE
      (Looks at her
       picture)
I look good, don't I Uncle Hades?
                                                            
                       HADES
      (Looks at her
       picture)
Eh... It's alright.
                                                            
                       HADES
      (Looks at anther
       picture of
       himself with his
       Cerberus)
Look at my precious doggies. Daddy
misses you. Yes, he does.
                                                            
(Everyone looks at Hades strangely.)
                                                            
                       HADES
      (Glares at eveyone)
You are to never speak of this!
Ever!
                                                            
(Everyone puts hands up acting innocent.)
                                                            
                       HERA
      (Looks at all the
       information about
       them)
So... We really are a myth.
                                                            
                       ZEUS
      (Puts arms around
       Her'a shoulder)
They might say we're a myth but we
know in our hearts we are real.
                                                            

13.

                       APOLLO
      (Looks around
       excited)
Why are we still here moping.
We're in a new century and land
lets have some fun.
                                                            
                       ARTEMIS
      (Calms Apollo down)
Calm down. We need to find a way
back home first.
                                                            
                       ZEUS
As much as we would want to
explore we need to find that
portal.
                                                            
                       NARRATOR/COP CARLISLE
      (Runs on stage)

We..(Pant)Have...(Pant)Trouble..(Pant)With
your portal that I have found.
                                                            
                       HERMES
Well, that was easy. Lets go have
fur now.
                                                            
                       APHRODITE
      (Grabs Hermes back
       of shirt)
Not so fast.
                                                            
                       HADES
We still need to see if it works.
And what do you mean by...
Trouble?
                                                            
                       NARRATOR/COP CARLISLE
Some person saw it and is
reporting it to the Army as we
speak. We need to get you back
into the portal now. and figure
out how to close it.
                                                            
                       POSEIDON
What are we waiting for? Lets go!
                                                            

14.

(As everyone leaves, Aphrodite looks at all the objects one
last time.)
                                                            
                       APHRODITE
      (Looks sad)
Are we really fake and made up,
because everyting feels so real.
                                                            
                       APHRODITE
      (Runs off stage)
                                                            
 
INT. CENTRAL PARK - EVENING
                                                            
                       ZEUS
      (Looks at portal)
Wow, I swear it grew bigger.
                                                            
                       POSEIDON
      (Inspects the
       portal)
What if we went back through and
it goes away?
                                                            
                       ZEUS
      (Looks at Poseidon)
That might just work...
                                                            
                       APHRODITE
      (Looks sad)
But that would mean we would never
come back here again.
                                                            
                       ZEUS
We have to take that risk to go
back to our home.
                                                            
(Everyone get ready to go in the Portal.)
                                                            
                       NARRATOR/COP CARLISLE
      (Stops them)
Wait, can I get a selfie with you
all one last time before you
leave. So I would never forget
you?
                                                            

15.

                       HADES
What is this selfie you speak of?
                                                            
                       NARRATOR/COP CARLISLE
      (Holds out phone)
You take a picture or a photo on a
phone.
                                                            
                       POSEIDON
What is a phone?
                                                            
                       NARRATOR/COP CARLISLE
      (Sighs)
Just circle around me.
                                                            
                       NARRATOR/COP CARLISLE
      (Takes the photo
       and light goes
       off)
                                                            
                       HERMES
      (Covers eyes)
I'm blind! I'm blind of life!
                                                            
                       APOLLO
      (Removes Hermes
       hands from his
       face)
Dude, you're fine. Stop
overreacting.
                                                            
                       NARRATOR/COP CARLISLE
Well, this is good-bye.
                                                            
                       APHRODITE
      (Gives the cop a
       hug)
                                                            
                       NARRATOR/COP CARLISLE
      (Hugs back)
                                                            
(Everyone steps through as Aphrodite and Cop stays hugging.)
                                                            
                       NARRATOR/COP CARLISLE
      (Release hug)

INT. CURTAINS CLOSE - LATER
                                                            
                       NARRATOR/COP CARLISLE
Well, after their trip back home
The portal closed for good.
Everything went back top normal
but with some new words. Aphrodite
never forgot Sir Carlisle and
Carlisle never forgot any of the
Greeks Gods and Goddesses. He even
became a story teller and wrote
many books based on them.
