Good Company (Olivia version)

Later that night, music was playing at the woodland animals' cottage. Br'er Rabbit, Br'er Fox, Br'er Bear, Br'er Frog, Mr. Bluebird, and several other critters were all gathered around the window watching as the woodland animals danced and yodeled. Kairi was sitting on a miniature chair daintily and clapping her hands. Greasy and Stupid danced around. Smart Guy played the bass. Simon the accordion, and Warren T. Rat played the pipe organ.

Smart Guy, Warren T. Rat, Greasy, Simon, Psycho, and Stupid: Ho-la-la-ee-ay Ho-la-la-ee-ay Ho-la-la-ee-ay-ee-la-ee-ay-ee-lee-ay Ho-la-la-ee-ay Ho-la-la-ee-ay Ho-la-la-ee-ay-ee-la-lee-ay-lee-o-lee-ay

The music was terrible seeing that neither Smart Guy nor Simon knew how to play the particular instruments they were playing.

Smart Guy: Ho-la-la-ee-ay

Simon: Ho-la-la-ee-ay

Psycho and Stupid: Ho-la-la-ee-ay-ee-la-ee-ay-ee-lee-ay

Greasy came to stand in front of Kairi and cleared his throat.

Greasy: I'd like to dance and tap my feet But they won't keep in rhythm You see, I washed them both today And I can't do nothing with 'em

Smart Guy, Warren T. Rat, Simon, Psycho, and Stupid: Ho hum, the tune is dumb The words don't mean a thing Isn't this a silly song For anyone to sing?

Greasy tap danced while Stupid played the drums. He accidentally let loose several drumsticks that slipped through his sleeves and the hit the drum.

Greasy and Psycho dragged Simon into the middle of the room.

Simon began, "I. . ." But he giggled bashfully, making the other woodland animals (except Warren T. Rat, who was still playing the organ) laugh. "Oh, g-gosh!" Simon stammered, while playing with his glasses. That made the woodland animals laugh even louder.

"Well, get on with it!" Warren T. Rat shouted impatiently, as he played a horrible note that got Simon to sing his part.

Simon: I chased a polecat up a tree Way out upon a limb And when he got the best of me I got the worst of him

The chipmunk's face turned beet red with embarrassment as the woodland animals continued to sing.

Smart Guy, Warren T. Rat, Greasy, Psycho, and Stupid: Ho hum, the tune is dumb The words don't mean a thing Isn't this a silly song For anyone to sing?

Stupid played a cymbal and then placed it on his head like a Chinese hat and walked off sideways.

Smart Guy, Warren T. Rat, Greasy, Simon, Psycho, and Stupid: Ho-la-la-ee-ay Ho-la-la-ee-ay

Greasy began to yodel, and Kairi decided to sing along.

Greasy: Ho-la-la-ee-ay-ee-la-ee-ay-ee-lee-ay

Wheezy began to yawn while holding a recorder. The flew near his mouth during the yawn and back far from it again. Wheezy saw this and started swatting at it. "Shoo! Go away!"

Smart Guy, Warren T. Rat, Greasy, Simon, Psycho, and Stupid: Ho-la-la-ee-ay Ho-la-la-ee-ay Ho-la-la-ee-ay-ee-la-ee-ay-ee-lee-ay Ho-la-la-ee-ay Ho-la-la-ee-ay Ho-la-la-ee-ay-ee-la-lee-ay-lee-o-lee-ay

Smart Guy dragged Kairi to the dance floor. Kairi danced around with Smart Guy, Simon, and Psycho while Greasy took over the bass.

The fly decided that it had enough of Wheezy and landed on Stupid's ear. Stupid tried to swat it, but hit the cymbal instead. Stupid wanted to play the drums better, and the fly landed on top of the drums that Stupid needed to hit. Finally, the fly landed on Wheezy's nose again. He reached for something, anything to swat it with. Stupid handed him a cymbal. He brought the cymbal down hard. But the fly just flew off in time, and Wheezy only hit himself in the face and looked extremely disoriented.

Kairi danced with Smart Guy, Greasy, and Simon while Psycho played the guitar, and Warren T. Rat was still playing the pipe organ. Even Br'er Rabbit, Br'er Fox, Br'er Bear, Br'er Frog, and the other critters danced along while the woodland animals cheered.

Stupid climbed up on Psycho's head. "Be careful. Watch out," he sputtered, as he was about to sneeze. "Be-- Be care-- Watch it! Watch it! Watch--Watch-- Ah--"

Stupid stopped Psycho from sneezing by holding his finger under his nose. "Thanks, Stupid!" Psycho sighed. "You're welcome." Stupid said, as he put a long teal coat around Psycho and himself.

The two weasels headed toward the dance floor. Stupid, with his tongue hanging out, smiled happily and snapped his fingers while Psycho walked and peeked through the coat. They headed towards Kairi. Kairi curtsied, and Stupid tried to bow, only to fall over, Psycho saved him by reaching up and grabbing his rear end. Then Kairi danced with them.

While Kairi was dancing with Psycho and Stupid, Smart Guy played the guitar, and Simon played the accordion. Mistakenly, Stupid played the drums. Now Smart Guy was playing the bass, Simon was still playing the accordion, and Warren T. Rat was still playing the organ. The happy jungle cubs cheered as Kairi clapped in rhythm, Greasy played the drums, Wheezy and Simon clapped their hands, Smart Guy played the bass, Wheezy played the recorder, and Psycho danced with Stupid still on top.

Unfortunately, the music abruptly ended as Psycho's nose felt an intense tickle. "Ah-ch--Ah-ch--Ah--Ah--Ah-ch--Ah-ch--Ah-ch--AAAAHHHH--"

Kairi covered her ears. Smart Guy, Warren T. Rat, Greasy, Wheezy, Simon, Br'er Rabbit, Br'er Fox, Br'er Bear, Br'er Frog, Mr. Bluebird, and the other critters hid while Stupid tried to stop the sneeze frantically. Eventually, Stupid tried to stop the sneeze by putting his finger under his own nose. Of course, that didn't work.

"Ah-CHOOOOO!!!!"

Psycho sneezed loudly, sending Stupid sailing through the air.

The coat came down around Max, and he smiled cutely. Bill, Old Blind Joe, Peewee Pete, and Fidget laughed out loud ad they, Dumbo, Timothy, the crows, the ponies, Spike, and the Pokémon came out of hiding. Olivia sat down, laughing. Bartholomew was stuck up on a rafter, and Smart Bill, Old Blind Joe, Peewee Pete, and Fidget laughed harder. Bartholomew slid down a decorative beam. Bill, Old Blind Joe, Peewee Pete, and Fidget laughed at Max again, and Bartholomew joined in.

Olivia calmed down, stopped laughing, and happily said, "That was fun."

"Now you do something," Old Blind Joe said, pointing to the Scottish girl mouse.

"Well, what shall I do?" Olivia asked the thugs.

"Tell us a story." pleaded Peewee Pete.

"Yes, tell us a story," Bill, Old Blind Joe, Fidget, Max, and Bartholomew echoed in unison.

"A true story." added Old Blind Joe.

"A love story!" added Fidget.

"Really lovely!" added Bartholomew.

Olivia thought for a moment, but she had an idea. She wanted to tell Bill, John, Old Blind Joe, Peewee Pete, Fidget, Max, and Bartholomew a story of herself. "Well,... Once upon a time, there was a princess."

"Was the princess you?" Bill asked hopefully, as he pointed to her.

Olivia nodded as she continued, "And she fell in love."

"Was is hard to do?" Max asked, while sobbing.

Olivia smiled and shook her head, "Oh, it was very easy," she said rather truthfully. "Anyone could see that the Prince was charming. The only one for me."

"Was he strong and handsome?" Bill asked.

"Was he big and tall?" Max asked, while smiling.

With a far away look in her eyes, Olivia replied, "There's nobody like him, anywhere at all."

"Did he say he loved you?" asked Fidget.

"Did he steal a kiss?" asked Old Blind Joe.

"He was so romantic, I could not resist!" Olivia smiled. Then she walked over to a small piano. "I got practice now, boys." And she sat down on the bench and began playing the piano.

She was interrupted by a couple of wrong notes. She stopped playing and turned her head to see John pawing at the piano. "Oh, you wanna practice, too!" she giggled. And with that, she carried on playing the piano and began to sing while turning some pages in a songbook.

Olivia: You and me together we'll be Forever, you'll see We, too, can be good company You and me Yes, together we, too

The thug all sat on the floor by the fireplace and listened to her sing, except for John, who was hiding behind the piano. "Ha! Mush!" he muttered.

Olivia: Together, that's you Forever with me We'll always be good company You and me Yes, together we'll be

The thugs found the sound so powerful that they all (except John) started to get sleepy-eyed.

Olivia: You and me together we'll be Forever, you'll see We, too, can be good company You and me Yes, together we, too Together, that's you Forever with me We'll always be good company You and me Yes, together we'll be

Later on, it was time for the thugs to put on pajamas.

Smart Guy was now wearing a red undershirt and pink boxers.

Warren T. Rat was now naked (just like when the six woodland animals did to him before they got ready for supper).

Greasy was now wearing a green T-shirt and white boxers with red hearts.

Wheezy was now wearing an off-white nightshirt.

Simon was now wearing a blue two-piece pajama set.

Psycho was now wearing blue footy pajamas.

Stupid was now wearing purple footy pajamas, and he was holding his stuffed bunny.

After all the thugs got their pajamas on, Olivia finished the last part of her song. Br'er Dumbo, Timothy, the crows, the ponies, Spike, and the Pokémon snuggled. Peewee Pete yawned and smacked his lips because he knew now that it would be time for the thugs to go to bed before too long.

Olivia: You and me together we'll be Forever, you'll see We'll always be good company You and me Just wait and see

After Olivia finished her song, Bill, Old Blind Joe, Peewee Pete, Fidget, Max, and Bartholomew sighed in a lovesick way, and suddenly, the cuckoo clock went off. The clock said, "10:00 PM."

Kairi stopped singing and playing the piano. Then she got up from the piano as she looked at the clock. "Oh my goodness!" she exclaimed, "It's past bedtime." She gently shoved the woodland animals up the stairs. "Go right upstairs ta bed."

They all started up the stair with Stupid in the lead. Smart Guy grabbed Stupid's pajamas and said, "Wait! Hold on, boys." He shoved Smart Guy back, and the fat weasel hit the wall with his head. He stood up, rubbing it. "Oh! My head!" he groaned.

"The princess will sleep in our beds upstairs." Smart Guy told Greasy, Wheezy, Simon, Psycho, and Stupid.

"But, where will you sleep?" asked Kairi.

Smart Guy smiled warmly. "Oh, we'll be quite comfortable down here in a...in a..."

"In a pig's eye!" Warren T. Rat finished the sentence.

"In a pig's eye? A sty." Smart Guy said, confused. Then he snapped out of what Warren T. Rat said and faced Kairi again. "No! No! I mean, we'll be comfortable. Won't we, boys?"

The woodland animals (except Warren T. Rat) answered, "Oh, yes! Mighty comfortable."

Stupid spotted a giant pillow (with a red pillowcase over it, golden buttons, and golden draw tassels on each end) on a bench.

"Now, don't you worry about us. We'll be alright, Kairi." Smart Guy told the auburn-haired girl. "Go right on up now."

Stupid laid down on the bench, cuddled up with the pillow.

"Well..." Kairi says skeptically, "if you insist. Good night." She head on upstairs.

"Good night, Princess." Smart Guy, Greasy, Wheezy, Simon, and Psycho said in unison.

Kairi reached the top of the. "You're sure you'll be comfortable?" she asked.

"Oh yes, very comfortable." all five woodland animals said.

"Well," said Kairi. "Pleasant dreams."

"Pleasant dreams." Smart Guy, Greasy, Wheezy, Simon, and Psycho all said.

And Kairi went into the woodland animals' bedroom.

As soon as the door was closed, all the woodland animals rushed to the pillow. Stupid tried to hold on, but they grabbed it and pulled it in several directions at once. "Let go!" Psycho yelled. Out of the seven of them, the only ones who were not pulling on the pillow were Smart Guy and Stupid.

Smart Guy tried to calm them down, unsuccessfully, by saying, "Now, boys. Don't get excited. Remember, share and share alike."

But Warren T. Rat, Greasy, Wheezy, Simon, and Psycho did not listen, and the pillow was being stretched to its limits.

"Look out!" gasped Wheezy.

"It's gonna rip!" added Simon.

And that's what happened! The pillow ripped, and feathers, Warren T. Rat, Greasy, Wheezy, Simon, and Psycho went flying across the room. Stupid grabbed a feather and uses it as a pillow, and he soon fell asleep.

In the woodland animals' bedroom, Kairi had put on her purple T-shirt and matching pants. Now she was kneeling beside Mungo's bed, praying. "God bless Br'er Rabbit, Br'er Fox, Br'er Bear, Br'er Frog, Mr. Bluebird, and all of the other critters. And god bless all the seven little woodland animals who have been so kind to me: Smart Guy, Warren T. Rat, Greasy, Wheezy, Simon, Psycho, and Stupid. And may my dreams come true. Amen," She finished her prayer and prepared to go to bed, but she remembered one more thing. "Oh yes, and please make Warren T. Rat like me."

Downstairs, the woodland animals have used various spaces to sleep in. Warren T. Rat was laying in the cauldron. "Hmph, girls!" he scoffed and tried to settle down, but there was something under him. He pulled out a spoon. "A fine kettle of fish!" He spat on the dimming fire, and it glowed brighter.

Snores from Simon, Greasy, Smart Guy, Psycho, Stupid, and Wheezy were heard coming from around the room. Warren T. Rat, who was still awake, looked over at Simon, asleep in a drawer and then up at Greasy, who was curled up in a cupboard.

Smart Guy was curled up in the sink where water dripped in his mouth and made him gargle.

Psycho was sleeping on the bench, using Stupid's rear end as a pillow. Stupid had a strange dream and began whimpering like a dog and shaking. Psycho sat up and poked him with his elbow. After a while, Stupid calmed down, and Psycho fluffed up his rear end and laid back down.

Wheezy was asleep on the floor near log pile while curled up in a bluish-gray sleeping bag with a medium-sized pillow (with an off-white pillowcase over it), and the fly landed on his nose. He flicked it away with one hand and then went back to sleep. Eventually, the fly landed on his nose again and fell asleep, as well. They all fell fast asleep for the rest of the night.
