Well, when I asked for requests, I meant the ones I'd already written, but never mind. This one was mentioned, so I'll put it up This is a parody of a Mel Brooks film that goes by the name: 'Robin Hood: Men in Tights'. As you can guess from the title, the film, in itself, is a parody, so it's a parody of a parody...yeah..that's alot of parodys. I should warn everyone now that if you take offense to things easily, this is not the fic for you, you have been warned. Right now that everyone is happy with their scripts..
"I'm not, I'm the villian!", shouts Pietro, waving his script in the air, "Why does LeBeau get the girl?! I thought you HATED Romy?!!!".
I do, but I wrote this before Romy took over , and I'm too lazy to change the casting, so we'll all have to struggle through it, besides, Remy is a thief, you know anyone else who can be Robin?. Anyway, it's not like I made you the villian trying to STEAL Rogue!
"At least I'm not a stupid horse in the parody", says Scott.
"That's debateable", smirks Pietro.
"......I hate my life", sighs Scott.

Act 1 - The opening act
-------------------
We open on a group of archers shooting flaming arrows - that would be arrows of fire - onto the villiage of Bayville, setting fire to it. Teryn runs out of her house, panicking as it catches alight
"My house is on fire!", she screams, "My house is on fire!
"Call the fire brigade!", screams Paul...in a manly way, of course
Suddenly, Duncan arrives on a cart with 'Fire department' scrawled on it's side
"There MUST be a better way of doing the credits!", signs Teryn, ignoring the fact that no credits are running.
"That's right, everytime they do a flaming Robin Hood mo...", Duncan pauses, "parody of a parody, they burn our village down!".
The villiagers all form together in a possey and stand in front of the screen
"Leave us alone, Todd Fan!", they shout.
We cut to a scene in Bayville Forest, where Sam, Roberto, Bobby, Freddy and Ray and all hanging around in tights and the basic Robin Hood wear
"This is scarilly comfortable", muses Freddy
"Promise me you won't EVER say that again", shivers Roberto
"Here's our cue!", says Ray as rap music starts.
"Yo, yo, yo", says Bobby
"Check it out", say the others
Bobby starts to rap as the others dance behind him
Prince Pie and the Sheriff, they was runnin' the show
Raisin' the taxes, 'cause they needed the dough
A reign of terror took over the land
They were slamin' down the people just to feed the big man
I said hey
The guys sing back in high voices
Hey
I said hey, sings Bobby
Hey, sing the guys in low voices
I said, sings Bobby
The boy around him start dancing like pansies while singing
Hey nanny nanny and a ho ho ho
Bobby blinks at them. before shaking his head, continuing with his rap
The people were unhappy, morale was low
There had no place to turn to there was nowhere to go
They needed a hero, but no one could be found
'Cause Remy LeBeau was outta town
I said hey
Hey, reply the guys, once again in high voices
I said hey, sings Bobby
Hey, sing the guys
Bobby takes a deep breath, prepared for the worst
I said
He gets it, the guy dance stupidly again,
Hey nanny nanny and a ho ho ho
"I'm not getting paid enough for this", mutters Bobby
He was put into the slammer by his human foe
And in a little while he would be no more
I said hey
Hey, sing the high voiced guys
I said hey, sings Bobby
Hey, sing the low-voiced guys
I said, sings Bobby
The guys put on the pansiest dance that was ever danced by pansy-like people
Hey nanny nanny, hey nanny nanny, hey nanny nanny and a ho ho ho
Bobby sighs, before poitning at the screen
Check it out!
Once the song is finnsihed, the guys give a collective shiver.
"A'h feel so.....violated", says Sam
"Is my eye twitching?", asked Roberto, twtiching his eye. "...I think it's twitching!".
Jamie walks in with a directors cap
"I got the cool job!. Shut up all of you!", he gives an evil laugh, "..Todd Fan was right, this IS fun!".

And there we go. Despite the Romyness, I did enjoy writing this one, and I shall enjoy it again. Yup. Besides, I like Remy, so I can deal with it. Do review. Until next time....
