Pay the Piper is an upcoming film based on the story of The Pied Piper of Hamelin.
==Plot==
The town of Hamelin lives in poverty and has a slight rat infestation, townsfolk are barely able to afford food or medicine. In contrast, the town council are all incredibly rich and live in excessive luxury, wasting a lot of food, which the rats end up eating. The extra food wasted by the town council causes the rat infestation to get worse, Hamelin spends a year trying to get rid of the rats with no success.
1 year after the infestation begins, the entire town hosts a meeting discussing what to do about the rats, when the doors to the town hall fly open and a man in a bright red hooded cape walks in with a flute in his hand. The man introduces himself as 'The Piper', who promises to be able to get rid of the rats within a couple of days. The town mayor, Mr. Towall, has doubts about the Piper and decides on a wager, if the Piper can rid Hamelin of the rats within 5 days, the Piper will be paid 1,000 pieces of gold, if he fails, the Piper agrees to give the mayor his white horse, Cloud.
The Piper stays in Hamelin for a little bit to see what the place is like, where he meets a woman called Marie, and the two become mutually attracted to eachother. Marie asks the Piper how he plans to get rid of the rats, and the Piper only tells her to wait and see, before playing a lovely tune on his flute. Their day together ends when Marie reveals she is the eldest daughter of the mayor, and she is engaged to marry a man called Edward, who is Hamelin's most decorated war hero.
On the fourth night, the Piper stands in the middle of the town and plays a tune on his flute, which hypnotises the rats, which he leads away into the woods, where they can live in peace, away from humans. The next morning, the Piper faces the town council to recieve his payment, however, the mayor says that since the rats are all gone, they have no reason to pay the Piper. The Piper gets angry and declares that it is unwise to rip off the Piper.
The Piper hops onto Cloud and rides out of Hamelin. Marie is enraged at her father for going back on his word. Mr. Towall says that he refused to pay the Piper as Edward told him about the attraction between the Piper and Marie. Marie breaks off her engagement to Edward and runs away from Hamelin to try to find the Piper.
1 month later, the Piper returns to Hamelin late at night and plays his flute, hypnotising the town children, leaving a note on the town notice board reading 'Pay the Piper'. The town decide the Piper deserves to be paid and follow the children's footprints to an abandoned town, where the Piper and Marie are keeping the children, who are all safe. Mr. Towall gives the Piper a bag with 1,000 gold pieces inside, requesting that the Piper return the children, however, the Piper refuses the gold, saying he no longer cares about the money, instead agreeing to return the children, on 3 conditions, first, the town council will each donate money to the lower class townsfolk, who do not deserve to live in poverty while the council live in luxury, second, Mr. Towall must step down as mayor, third, Mr. Towall must agree to let Marie and the Piper be married, as Marie is now pregnant with the Piper's child. Mr. Towall decides to put it to a vote with the rest of the town council, at first, 6 of the 7 council members vote to agree to the Piper's requests, while Mr. Towall is hesitant, but seeing how much the Piper and Marie love eachother, also votes to agree to the Piper's requests.
1 year later, Hamelin is much better, with the townsfolk no longer in deep poverty, and the Piper and Marie living happily together with their baby daughter.
