Narrator:
 A glorious Banquet has been arranged by our new king Macbeth, at Glamis castle. To celebrate the coronation. All nobility have been invited to stay, including Banquo and his son fleance.


Banquo:
I think we will go out riding in the forest this afternoon, but we will be back in time for the feast.
Macbeth:
(smiles deviously)of course. But hurry back; I don't want to start the feast without you. I want you by my side.(thoughtfully rubbing his hands)


Narrator:
As Banquo and his son-fleance-rode of Macbeth smiled, as this gave him just the opportunity he needed, and he ordered his guards to kill Banquo and his son.


Narrator:
Later that evening, just before the banquet started Macbeth turned to one of his soldiers.


Macbeth
(intentionally)Where have Banquo and fleance got to? it is not like them to miss the feast.


(Messenger enters)


Messenger:
(Whispers)The dead is done. Banquos throat has been cut.


Macbeth:
(smirking)Good. And his son?


Messenger:
(Nervously) He got away. Escaped sir.


Macbeth:
(Head in hands)NO!(Bellows)NO THIS CAN NOT BE HAPPENING TO ME!
