Someone's Waiting For You/Chip and Dale Goes to Deliver the Message

*(Back at the riverboat in her room, Kairi was getting ready for bed. She had already brushed her teeth, washed her face, and combed her hair. Now she was putting on a pair of fuchsia long-sleeved footy pajamas with a white and fuchsia striped neck rim, white and fuchsia striped sleeve rims, white booties, white soles, and a fuchsia zipper. Just then, she heard Narissa call to her in a singsong voice)*

Narissa: (Voice-over) Kairi, dear! Auntie Narissa wants to talk to you!

*(Kairi started to walk out of her bedroom, carrying Luna. In her own bedroom, Narissa was putting on a dark blue sleeveless, ruffled nightgown while looking at herself in the mirror and removing her makeup)*

Narissa: (Grumpily) High tide or not, that little brat is going to find me that diamond tomorrow, or else!

*(She then heard a knock on the door)*

Narissa: (Sweetly) Come in. Come in.

*(Kairi opened the door and stepped inside)*

Kairi: (Nervously) Yes, what is it? Did you want to see me, miss?

Narissa: Why, yes, my dear. Don't be so shy. Now, I am going to let bygones be bygones. Do you know what would make Auntie Narissa very happy?

Kairi: Yes, you want me to find the diamond.

Narissa: (Removing her false eyelashes) That's right, dear!

Kairi: But I’ve tried as hard as I could. Honest.

Narissa: (Still removing her false eyelashes) Of course you have. But we must try harder, mustn't we?

Kairi: Then will you please take me back to the orphanage? Like you promised? I want to get adopted, you know.

Narissa: (Removing her lipstick) Kairi, don't you like it here? A big, beautiful boat all to yourself?

Kairi: (Sadly) But if I don't get back to the orphanage, I’ll never get adopted.

Narissa: (In alarm while removing her eyeshadow) Adopted? *(Sneeringly with a chuckle)* What makes you think anybody would want a homely little child like you?

*(Then Kairi shed tears and even wiped one away from her right eye and let the tear plop on Luna’s cheek to make her look like she was crying, too. Then Kairi walked out of the bedroom, closed the door, and walked up the stairs. Once she made it to her bedroom, she went onto her balcony and looked down at the water below her)*

Female Singer: (Voice-over) **Be brave, little one**

**Make a wish**

**For each sad, little tear**

**Hold you head up**

**Though no one is near**

**Someone's waiting for you**

*(Kairi then looked up at the sky as she shed a few tears. A star shone in the night sky among the other stars. Meanwhile, a young male deer named Bambi and his mother were chewing on some grass. Suddenly, Bambi's mother raised her head and looked out into the distance, as if someone was coming)*

Female Singer: (Voice-over) **Don't cry, little one**

**There'll be a smile**

**Where a frown used to be**

*(Then a female bat flew overhead, with Kairi watching, and came to her nest with Stellaluna and her siblings. She nestled on top off them and fell asleep)*

Female Singer: (Voice-over) **You'll be part of**

**The love that you see**

**Someone's waiting for you**

*(Meanwhile, Chip and Dale were bringing Sonic's group, Sally's group, and the Fearsome Four closer to the riverboat)*

Female Singer: (Voice-over) **Always keep a little prayer in your pocket**

**And you're sure to see the light**

**Soon, there'll be joy and happiness**

**And your little world will be bright**

*(Then Kairi smiled when she started to believe that someone was waiting to love her. She wiped her tears away with her hands as she continued smiling while looking up at the sky)*

Voice-over) **Have faith, little one**

**Till your hopes**

**And your wishes come true**

**You must try to be brave, little one**

**Someone's waiting to love you**

*(Then she went into her bedroom and hugged Luna. She kissed her toy unicorn on the cheek)*

Kairi: Goodnight, Luna. Sleep tight.

*(Kairi then blew the candle out next to her bed)*

Kairi: (Realizing) Oh! We almost forgot to say our prayers.

*(After Kairi kneeled, she began to pray)*

Kairi: Please bless Morning Side Orphanage, Luna, and me. And all the boys and girls at the orphanage. Every one of them.

*(As Sonic's group, Sally's group, and the Fearsome Four went up to the window, Kairi continued)*

Kairi: And please let somebody find my bottle. There's a message in it. Because running away isn't working. Amen.

*(She looked at Luna while fighting the urge to cry)*

Kairi: Don't worry, Luna. We’ll…. *(Sniffles)* We’ll be…. *(Sniffles again, then begins crying)* All right!

*(She then began crying her eyes out. Seeing her sobbing like that, the Rescuers watched the whole thing, feeling pity for the poor girl. They went up to her)*

Sally: Kairi? Kairi?

*(The girl looked up at the twelve)*

Kairi: (Calmly while sniffling) Yes?

Cosmo: Kairi. Kairi, dear, now don't cry.

Amy: We are here to help you.

Kairi: (Sniffling) H-Hi there.

*(And then Sadie held out a violet handkerchief to the orphan girl)*

Sadie: Dry your eyes, honey.

*(Kairi accepted it calmly and, before wiping her eyes, she blew her nose. After she finished, Kairi was about to hand it back to Sadie)*

Sadie: (Politely) No, it's alright. You keep it. Make it your good luck charm. And besides, you need it more than me.

Kairi: Thanks.

*(Shaking her hand, Kairi put the handkerchief in her skirt pocket, then walked back to the twelve)*

Kairi: (Confused) Where did you come from?

Shaggy: Like, we found the bottle with your message, and we've come to rescue you.

*(Kairi got happy and looked at Luna)*

Kairi: Did you hear that, Luna? Our bottle worked!

*(She then looked at her saviors)*

Kairi: Didn't you bring somebody big with you? Like the police?

Megavolt: No.

Quackerjack: There's just the twelve of us.

Sally: But, if all of us work together, and we have a little faith.

Kairi: That's what Jaune-Tom, Mewsette, and Robespierre said. Faith makes things turn out right.

Sonic: Kairi, I know it's late, but we have to escape tonight, right now.

Kairi: But, I just got caught by Brer Fox and Brer Bear.

*(She showed her rescuers her healed rope abrasions on her wrists)*

Kairi: Look what they did to my wrists tying me up a lot.

Liquidator: Yeah, and they're still down there guarding the gangplank, kinda-bow, kinda-wow.

*(He and Bushroot looked down at Brer Fox and Brer Bear at the gangplank. Sally, Cosmo, Amy, and Sadie got a little mad)*

Cosmo: (Angrily) Oh, those vicious beasts!

Amy: (Angrily) They ought to be locked up in a cage.

Kairi: (Eagerly) I know, I know. Come on, I'll show you.

*(She led Sonic's group, Sally's group, and the Fearsome Four to a cage elevator down the stairs below them)*

Kairi (Proudly) See there? The elevator.

Sadie: Oh, it's a perfect cage, Kairi.

Sally, Cosmo, Amy, and the boy rescuers: Great idea.

Bushroot: Now, what can we use for bait?

Kairi: Oh, they'll chomp on anything.

Bushroot: Yeah, I know.

*(Then Sonic and Sally's groups had an idea)*

Sally: I've got it! Cosmo’s perfume. Remember?

Sonic: They'll follow the scent right into the elevator.

Tails: My sentiments exactly!

Knuckles: Yeah!

Shaggy: Like, that's right!

Kairi: And we'll slam the door. And would that make Narissa mad! *(Starts mocking Narissa)* “Brer Fox! Brer Bear! Did you let that little girl escape again? You're too soft!”

*(She then picked up a broom nearby and pretended to whack Brer Fox and Brer Bear)*

Kairi: (Pretending to whack Brer Fox and Brer Bear) Whack! Whack!

*(The group laughed)*

Tails: (Laughing) Hey Kairi, that's not bad.

Cosmo: (Giggling) That's exactly like Narissa.

*(Kairi pretended to look at Brer Fox and Brer Bear)*

Kairi: (Mocking Narissa) “Track her down, boys. Bring her back!”

Sadie: And we'll be so far ahead, they'll never catch us.

Knuckles: Wait a minute. She might catch us in her swamp-mobile.

Kairi: We'll swipe it. I've always wanted to drive it.

*(She made swamp-mobile noises)*

Shaggy: Like, what if Narissa wakes up while we're starting it?

Megavolt: We're in trouble. We gotta stall them somehow.

*(He then pondered)*

Quackerjack: How about Professor Nimnul’s fireworks?

Kairi: We'll shoot them off in her bedroom. That'll keep her busy.

Sally: (Excited) Oh, guys, it's so exciting!

Cosmo: (Excited) Perfume, beasts, swamp-mobiles.

Amy: (Excited) It's just got to work!

Sadie: (Excited) Let’s do it, ladies!

Liquidator: It's our only chance.

Bushroot: But, we're gonna need help.

*(Suddenly, they heard Narissa shout from below)*

Narissa: (Voice-over) Nimnul! Nimnul, get down here!

*(Then Nimnul ran downstairs)*

Nimnul: (Shouting) What-what-what's up, Narissa? Wh-what's going on? Did that punk run away again?

*(He slammed the door, and the group heard Narissa shout from below again)*

Narissa: (Voice-over) Oh, shut up! She did not! I'm just letting you know we're leaving for the cave first thing in the morning! That brat better find that diamond for me!

*(The group got concerned upon hearing that)*

Sonic: I bet those two are up to something.

Shaggy: My sentiments exactly.

Kairi: (Scared) Gee, I don't wanna go down that awful black hole again. It's too dark down there.

Sadie: Don't worry about that, darlin'.

Sally: You must hurry and get dressed.

Sonic: Come on. We haven't got much time.

Tails: Chip? Dale? Up here.

*(Chip and Dale heard him and ran up to the six Mobians)*

Chip: Chip and Dale reporting for duty, sir?

Dale: What can we do for you, ol’ Mobians and humans?

Knuckles: We need help.

Cosmo: Go get Daisy with the Fearsome Four!

Amy: And hurry!

Chip and Dale: (Saluting) Roger!

*(And then, after the Fearsome Four jumped into the water, they swam with Chip and Dale back towards Mildew and Daisy's home. Suddenly, upon the Fearsome Four arriving at shore, a horde of swamp bats began flocking at them, and they ran for dear life, hurrying quickly. As Chip and Dale ran for their own dear lives, they saw a spider spinning a web. Megavolt ran right into the web, and a bat chased after him, ruining the web by spinning it and making the spider dizzy. The spider angrily shook its fist at the said bat. Noticing an empty glass bottle and a log, Chip, Dale, and the Fearsome Four hid in those respective spots, hoping for the coast to be clear. At Daisy's house, Daisy and Mildew, along with their neighbors (Consisting a male anthro duck, a male anthro parrot, an anthro rooster, a male anthro mountain lion, a male anthro rabbit, and a male anthro turtle), are gathered together with their meeting. The male anthro duck white feathers, an orangish-yellow bill and webbed feet, and light blue eyes, and is wearing a blue long-sleeved sailor shirt with white lining around the collar and wrists and four white buttons on the front of his shirt, a red bow tie on the chest, and a blue sailor hat with a black brim and a black tassel. He is Donald Duck. The male anthro parrot has light green feathers, an orangish-yellow beak and feet, two light blue tail feathers with a single red one in the middle, brown eyes, and a Brazilian accent, and is wearing a cloud blue long-sleeved shirt with a white collar and cuffs, a yellow long-sleeved jacket with three small buttons going down the front, a black bow tie around his neck, light yellow gloves, and a yellow straw boater hat with a black ribbon. He is also carrying a black umbrella. He is José Carioca, nicknamed "Joe" or "Zé," Donald's friend. The anthro rooster has light brownish-red feathers, white arms and hands, an orangish-yellow beak and feet, light reddish-brown tail feathers, a red comb on the top of his head, and a Mexican accent, and is wearing a purplish-red long-sleeved bolero jacket with yellow lining around the sides of his jacket and around the wrists, silver spurs on his talons, purplish-red charro pants, a tan sombrero, and a matching belt with a silver buckle. He is Panchito Romero Miguel Junipero Francisco Quintero González III, or simply Panchito Pistoles, Donald and José's friend. The male anthro mountain lion has pink fur, a peach muzzle, a black nose, rounded ears with peach interiors, long black whiskers, and wearing white shirt cuffs, a yellow long-sleeved jacket, a white shirt collar, and a black bow tie. He is Snagglepuss. The male anthro rabbit has grayish-brown fur, a light red nose, a white muzzle, white buckteeth, a white cottontail, three brownish-tan toe pads on each foot, gray soles, and wearing a pink long-sleeved, button-up shirt with the sleeves rolled up and blue pants. He is Brer Rabbit. And the male anthro turtle has green skin, a lighter green beak, throat, and belly, beige toenails, and wearing a a brown shell with dull green spots and an olive green underside, a red cap, and a yellow long-sleeved raincoat and sometimes used a corncob bubble pipe. He is Brer Terrapin)*

Donald's group: Yahoo!

Daisy: Are you ready to help rescue that little gal?

Brer Rabbit: Sure enough, darlin’!

Donald: Hallelujah!

Jose: All right!

Panchito: *¡Sí!*

*(Mildew, however, was fast asleep in a rocking chair)*

Snagglepuss: My sentiments exactly!

Daisy: Mildew! On your feet, you lazy wolf!

*(Daisy stomped on the back of one of the rockers, knocking him out of the chair. Mildew suddenly woke up)*

Mildew: Sorry, Daisy. I was just waiting for someone to holler "Charge!".

Brer Terrapin: Dagnab it! Let's cut out the jawing and get going!

Brer Rabbit: (Chuckling) When old Brer Terrapin gets heated up, his nose gets plumb out of joint.

Daisy: Take it easy, Brer Terrapin.

*(Daisy peeked through an open door to see if the Fearsome Four, Chip, and Dale were coming)*

Daisy: We gotta stay here till Chip, Dale, and the Fearsome Four bring us word from the two humans and six Mobians.

Brer Terrapin: (Sympathetically) If those two chipmunks and the Fearsome Four don't get here soon, they'll put that poor little girl down the black hole again!
