Left! Right! Left! Right! JAB!

Hercules sent a fist through his giant six foot punching bag. He removed his hand and sand began pouring from the bag. Hercules gave an exasperated groan. That was the sixth punching bag this week. Phil was most definitely going to kill him. Apparently these things were a lot of munny. Phil had often yelled at him to learn how to control his strength when sparring with the punching bags.

With nothing left to do for the workout, Hercules picked up his towel from the ground and threw it over the back of his neck. He walked to the bench on the sidelines and slowly sat down, keeping his strength in check. Hercules listened to the silence. He most definitely preferred this to the constant tournaments and public shows. Phil had been running him wild lately. He had gotten that yearly fire in his eyes.

Unbeknownst to Phil, Herc was actually thinking about going on a hiatus. Maybe he could do a little soul searching. The constant fighting just wasn't enough for Hercules's life. Of course, speak of the devil, a loud yell came from the other side of the training grounds.

"YOU BLEW THROUGH ANOTHER BAG!?" Hercules sighed and the argument began.

"Look, Phil, I'm sorry. I wasn't thinking. I was just running through the motions and forgot to-"

"Exactly, kid! That's the problem! You weren't thinking! You barely even defeated the Beholder last week! You were almost immortalized through stone!!!"

Hercules began to tone Phil off and look up at the sky. The stars were especially bright tonight. He could just about see a mirror image of himself that his father had made in his honor the day that he had saved Olympus from Hades. Hercules slowly realized that he had gotten almost everything in life through his strength. Why? Why couldn't anyone like him for just him? That's when he remembered someone who DID like him for him.

Meg. He missed her so much. Unfortunately, Phil had banned Hercules from seeing her until he had won at least 20 trophies in the tournaments. It's not that it is a hard task. It's more time consuming than anything.

Herc could imagine her looking up at the stars just as he did. He smiled when he thought of this. She was probably scoffing at his constellation right now.

"...AND MOST OF ALL, IF YOU DON'T GET FOCUSED, I WILL REMOVE MY HORNS AND SHOVE THEM UP YOUR BIG, MUSCLED-.... What are you smiling at!?!?!?"

Hercules snapped at of his trance and looked down at Phil. He chuckled slightly and just shrugged. "Just at my life, Phil. Where can I get another bag?"

Phil just snorted angrily and said, "I've got one in the back." Hercules began walking to the shed when he heard Phil suddenly yell, "WAIT A SEC? WHAT'S SO FUNNY ABOUT YOUR LIFE!?"

Hercules stopped. He turned around to look at Phil. "Y'know, Phil," he started, "When I first came to you, I had a goal. My goal was to become the greatest hero in the world, and even be recognized by the Gods! I've done that. Yet, here I am, still fighting. Fighting to prove myself...and for what? I've left Meg behind, I gave up Olympus...I don't know Phil, I just don't think there's much more motivation in my life."

Phil looked like he was just hit by a truck. His all star Hero had just told him he was sick of fighting.

"I found my way, Phil. Now, I wanna go somewhere new! I wanna see the entire universe! I wanna live a life like...like...Sora, Donald, and Goofy! And y'know...I think I'm gonna give it a try!"

"WHAT!?" Phil yelled. "KID GET BACK HERE RIGHT NOW!"

Hercules turned around and walked backwards looking at Phil. He shrugged and said, "You can come, too, if you want." Hercules laughed and continued walking into the distance with Phil yelling back at him.

I know you can play Hercules. However, I'm going to have to request a bit more dialogue for Herc. I shan't deny this, but rather, I'll let you modify and I'll reread.

If you were auditioning for Phil, it might be a different story xD

[Renewed Gemini]

alright. I can do that no problem. Thanks for letting me modify.


Edit: Alright, I changed it up. Hopefully it didn't change his character too much. I'm lookin' at it and wondering if it did...but it matches up with the rest of the audition, so I think it's alright. You guys be the judges.

[High's .Valentine.]

HMMMMM.

You know, you play a pretty good Phil...XDD Sure you dun wanna just audition for him?

Dialogue-wise, I think it's a bit awkward...

But at the same time, the other parts are classic Herc, from what I remember from the movie. Unsatisfied, he listens to what his heart tells him and moves on, regardless of whether his 'nanny goat' would go berserk or not. Even though I remember him being a lot more obedient usually when he's not so disillusioned.

While the dialogue are still a bit stuffy for Wonderboy, I think you got Herc down pretty good.

1/2 accepted.

There are things wrong that I can see, but I can't tell if it's from what I remember of Herc or if it's because this alludes to what you're going to do with this character, which I'm not fond of. XD But from an objective point of view, this is good enough for Herc to get by. I just had to be an advocate of creative license. XD

2/2 approved.
