Meh not my best. I just thought of the idea in science class one day (for no reason) and i wrote the code in class and finished it up when i got home.

i know theres probably a lot of unnecessary code but im rusty in scripting cause ive been on a break from it for a while.  
i hope you enjoy for some reason.

```auto
x = random(5)+3;
y = random(5)+3
x2 = random(5)+3;
y2 = random(5)+3;
line1x = 0;
line1y = 400;
line2x = 550;
line2y = 400;
i = 10;
myFill=Math.random()*0xFFFFFF
linethickness = 13;
emptylinespeed = 4;
linestat = "unset";
createEmptyMovieClip("shape", 0);
createEmptyMovieClip("line1", 1);
createEmptyMovieClip("line2", 2);
cut = function (target:String) {
    if (target == "line1") {
        createEmptyMovieClip("emptyline", 3);
        emptyline.lineStyle(linethickness, 0xFF0000, 100);
        emptyline.moveTo(line1x, line1y);
        emptyline.lineTo(linex, liney);
    } else {
        createEmptyMovieClip("emptyline", 3);
        emptyline.lineStyle(linethickness, 0xFF0000, 100);
        emptyline.moveTo(line2x, line2y);
        emptyline.lineTo(linex, liney);
    }
};
onEnterFrame = function () {
    if (linestat == "set") {
        emptyline._y -= emptylinespeed;
